Immediately below - between the two sets of three solid bars, you will find a list of things I have come to believe after my fifty plus years of Bible study. If some of these things seem strange and unbelievable to your eyes and ears please know you will find scripture and studies to back them up on this web site. I have included live links to some of those scriptures and studies to get you started in your search. Many of these truths are not taught in our Christian churches. Too controversial I guess!!!! That is a shame.

What do you believe?
by John Rhine I believe:
That, billions of years ago God was alone.
That, God had Wisdom, but no family to love or to love Him in return. See(Live Link) to- Wisdom

That, at that time, for His pleasure, billions of years ago, God created us, His children as spirit beings like Himself.

See(Live Link) to- Spirit Beings

That, He could have created us like robots, programed to love Him, but finding no pleasure in that option, chose to give us free will.
That, He gave us free will knowing that in doing so, He risk our not returning His love.
That, He also created our brother Lucifer to be our guide in that spiritual world.
That, God then created the world that then was (the first earth age) as a home for us to live in with Lucifer as our priest and leader.

See(Live Link) to- Is the Earth only 6000 years old?
See(Live Link) to-Is There a Conflict Between Science and the Bible?
See(Live Link) to-Three World Ages

That, Lucifer, using his free will, decided he would take over and become like God.

See(Live Link) to- Satan wanted to be king

That, Lucifer deceived one third or approximately 4 billion of us, convincing that many of us that he truly was capable of being more powerful than or as powerful as God.

See(Live Link) to- Satan led a third of God's children, i.e, the stars of heaven,  astray!

That, God, in anger over Lucifer's betrayal, removed us from the earth during that first earth age and destroyed everything, actually knocking the earth off its perfect axis and causing a world wide flood [Lucifer's flood; not Noah's flood] which killed all flesh and blood life. [i.e. The end of the dinosaurs]

See(Live Link) to- Lucifer's flood

That, God sentenced Lucifer to everlasting death, with the sentence to be carried out at a future date only after He [God] uses him to help discover which of us will, truly, by our own free will, remain or become faithful to Him during this, second, earth age.

See (live link-) to-Predestination

That, God chose not to destroy us, His children, at that time, even the ones who followed Lucifer, because He loves us and realized we had no appreciation of the finality of death; our only experience with death, having been witness to the life and death of the flesh and blood beings of the animal kingdom [dinosaurs and such] during that first earth age.
That, a number of us who had stayed faithful to God, continuing to worship Him and showing our love for Him.
That, The majority of us did not take sides with Lucifer against God,  but we also did not actively choose God over Lucifer either.
That, God knew that many of us could not really appreciate the finality of death, even though we witnessed it in animals, so He had a plan whereby we could be saved from the same fate as Lucifer which is eternal death of the soul.

See(Live Link) to- Plan of God

That, He would, one by one, in turn, over a period of time, during a second earth age, place us into flesh and blood bodies to experience the life and death of our flesh body, i.e. the shadow of death, so that we might by so doing realize how final the death of our souls would be and allowing us then, if we had not already done so, to by our own free will, choose to be faithful to Him.

See(Live Link) to- Flesh & blood bodies

That, Those of us who actively remained faithful in the first earth age He chose, predestined, for a special purpose in this flesh life without free will because He knew we had already chosen to be faithful to Him in the first earth age. (referring to us as "the elect" in the Bible)

See(Live Link) to- No "Altar Call" for Paul

That, God then, after making the earth livable again, created human life, ( Adam ) The Hebrew word translated "man" is adam. In the manuscripts it is not preceded by the definite article 'eth and so it does not refer to a specific person, i.e. the word adam means human being or mankind,  and has each of us in turn being born of water and existing here in flesh bodies, similar to that of animals, so we can gain appreciation of life and the finality of death by experiencing both, physical life and physical death while living here in flesh bodies.

See (live link) to-fifth and sixth days of new creation

That, He did this [made the earth livable again], then over a six day (approx. 6000 year) period of time and on the seventh day (approx. 1000 year period) he rested while many of us (the races) came to earth, and still do, through the womb experiencing life and death during our short stay here on earth.

See (live link) to-The day of rest

That, we all, in the flesh, fall short of the perfection he requires of his children.
That, He decided to come to earth Himself as His own only begotten son (Jesus), a flesh man also, to offer His own blood as a sacrifice for sin to all who would choose life through Him rather than death through Satan.
That, on the eighth day he created a new line of humans, ('eth-ha adham ) with the article and particle, which means "this same man Adam", to be made up of only those of us from the first earth age who stuck by Him during Satan's uprising (the Elect).

See(Live Link) to- Eighth day man

That, He Himself would come to earth in a flesh body as a descendant of this new Adamic line of humans.
That, from day one, Satan determined he would corrupt that Adamic line with his own seed.

See (Live Link) to- "Two Sowers of seed; both the good and the bad"

That, Satan did corrupt a branch of that new line before it ever really got started when he seduced Eve in the garden and she bore Cain.
That, a pure branch did survive through Adam's and Eve's son Seth.
That, over several generations others of us, loyal to Satan, came to earth without entering through the womb, i.e. being born of water, and impregnated daughters of Seth's descendants.

See (live link) to-What happened after expulsion from the garden

That, the situation got so bad that when there were only eight pure Adamic descendants left God again decided to destroy all other human life, in that part of the world, with a second but less devastating local flood (Noah's flood).

See (Live Link) to- Noah's flood.

That, even after Noah's flood more of us continued to come to earth without entering through the womb (producing another giant species of man of which Goliath was one).

See (live link) to-After Noah's Flood

That, a pure strain of eighth day man (Adam's and Eve's descendants) did survive through Abraham's and Sarah's son Isaac, via Isaac's son, Jacob (Israel) and from that line God came to earth, through the womb of a virgin descendant, in the person of Jesus Christ.
That, Jesus, being God in the flesh, lived a perfect life without sin and therefore; was able to become the ultimate sacrifice.

See (live link) to-Saved by grace

That, after we all have been to earth through the womb Christ will return and we will all be changed back into spirit bodies similar to the bodies we had in the first earth age.
That, before Jesus returns, Lucifer/Satan [as the false-christ] will come and deceive many professing Christians and also non Christians into believing he is Christ.

See (live link) to-The first beast has risen

That, those of us who claim to be Christians and are deceived [have the mark of the beast in our forehead] will be so ashamed when Jesus says, "Depart from me, I never knew you".

See (live link) to-Endure to the end)

That, When Christ returns we will all be changed back into our spiritual bodies; the Millennium (next 1000 years) will be a spiritual (not flesh and blood) existence for all of us, both the saved and the dead (THE DEAD BEING THOSE OF US WHO WERE NOT GRANTED IMMORTAL SOULS, I. E. ETERNAL LIFE AT CHRIST'S RETURN AND STIILL HAVE, STILL LIABLE TO DIE, MORTAL SOULS.)

See (live link) to-The seventh trump

That, some of us who have already accepted and truly know Christ, as in know to tell the difference between what is holy and what is profane, HAVE received eternal life at His return (the first resurrection)

(live link) to-"The First Resurrection" Rev.20:4-5

That, those of us who receive eternal life at that first resurrection will rule with Christ for 1000 years teaching the rest of us the difference between what is Holy and what is profane [summer school, you might call it, for the rest of us]

See(Live Link) to- The Millennium

That, Those referred to as the dead, during the Millennium, are those of us who did not receive eternal life at Christ's return, who while being yet alive all through the Millennium, are still liable to perish at the Great White Throne of Judgment depending on our works during and at the end of the Millennium.

See(Live Link) to-The Walking Dead

That, Satan will be locked up and unable to negatively influence us for this 1000 year period.

See(Live Link) to-Revelation"SATAN IMPRISONED, BEGINS SERVING 1000 YEAR SENTENCE"

That, we will all (every one who ever lived, except Satan, and those of us who did not come to earth through the womb) live on earth with Christ for 1000 years (approx. 12 billion of us).
That, after one thousand years living without evil influence, but with us all now having foreknowledge of what death is, Satan will be loosed for a little while to again tempt us.
That, any of us who did not receive eternal life at our Lord's return, now having this foreknowledge, who still choose to follow Satan, will be judged at the Great White Throne and sentenced to the same fate as Satan - to perish by the all consuming fire which is God.

See(Live Link) to- The Great White Throne

That, God now knows that all of us who chose to follow Him in the first earth age and/or during the grace period of this earth age did so because we love Him allowing Him to change our hearts to what He would have us be, and
That, the walking dead who choose to follow God and holiness rather then Satan and what is profane, when Satan is released for a short time at the end of the Millennium, will at that time be granted eternal life (the second resurrection).

See (live link) to-Rev. 20 starting verse 5

That, then God will have achieved His goal of having children, for all of eternity, (made up of sixth day men, i.e. the races, and eighth day men), who are pure in heart not because he created us without the ability to sin but knowing we loved Him and chose Him to purified us not by His will alone, but by our own free will.
That, as we humans measure time, is a long drawn out process, but the only way God could create offspring who end up not only being perfect, but who love Him, as He loves us, by our own free will.
That, He created us with the ability to be imperfect, yet with a free will to choose if we want Him to change our hearts from imperfection to perfection.
That, we will spend eternity here in a new heaven and earth [the third heaven and earth age] in spirit bodies, like our Fathers, and we will be His family and He will be our Father and our God.

Again I ask... What do you believe?
Jesus said,in Mark 13:23 "I told you all things."
It's all there in your Bible.

to-Find and Fill the Gaps

Matthew 13:10  And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?
11  He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
12  For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.
13  Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
14  And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
15  For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
16  But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
17  For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
18  Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.
19  When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.

Mark 4:1  And he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.
2  And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine,
3  Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:
4  And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.
5  And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:
6  But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
7  And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
8  And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.
9  And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
10  And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.
11  And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:
12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.
13  And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?
14  The sower soweth the word.
15  And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.
16  And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;
17  And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended.
18  And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,
19  And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.
20 And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.

"The Parable of the Fig Tree"
In Mark 13:28 Jesus said Learn it! Mark 13:28 Now learn a parable of the fig tree;... If Jesus said learn it, don't you think it would be good for your spiritual well-being to listen to him and "Learn It!"
In order to understand  "The Parable of the Fig Tree" 
you must understand  "The Parable of the Tares"
in order to understand  "The Parable of the Tares"

The whole truth;  and your understanding of it, is found in your Bible:
But you won't find it all in one book, chapter, or verse.
Isaiah 28:9 Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.
10  For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
11  For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.
12  To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
13  But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
If you truly love the Lord and search for the truth, with the Holy Spirit's help, you will find it.
2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 16  But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
1 Thessalonians 5:16 Rejoice evermore.
17  Pray without ceasing.
18  In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
19 Quench not the Spirit.
20  Despise not prophesyings.
21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
22  Abstain from all appearance of evil.
With the Holy Spirit's help!
1 Corinthians 2:6  Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:
7  But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
8  Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
9  But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
10  But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
11  For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
12  Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
13  Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14  But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
15  But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
16  For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
1 Corinthians 3:16  Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
17  If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
Jesus said, "I told you all things."
Mark 13:22  For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.
23  But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.
That includes all the physical things that happened to our ancestors. They happened as examples to help us understand the spiritual things which we will experience in the end time.
1 Corinthians 10:11 Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come
If you don't know the scriptures, you don't know the Lord!
Matthew 22:29  Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.
Mark 12:24  And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?
John 1:1  In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

 Copyrights on New Bible Versions
All publishing houses are in business to make a profit for their investors, therefore they want to get copyright protection for their work. In order to qualify for copyright protection a revised version must be different enough to be regarded as a new work or contain a substantial amount of new material. Making minor changes to a pre-existing work will not qualify the work as a new version for copyright purposes. In other words, the modern versions must  by law read significantly different from their predecessor versions in order to qualify for a copyright.
The text of the original 1611 King James Bible is the only text of over 200 English translations that has no financial copyright! (If you see a copyright notice in a King James Study Bible it does not cover the actual text, but only the publisher's notes and comments.)
So the name of the game is to make the changes necessary to qualify for copyright protection, even if you must sacrifice authenticity, then turn it over to your sales department to promote and to be sure it sells well to the public, thereby making money for your stock holders.
 ARE WE CHRISTIANS GULLIBLE OR WHAT! We have the best, most accurate, doctrinally correct  1611 King James Bible available to be purchased, at a lower price, because it is not copyrighted, but instead we believe the marketing ploy of the publishing houses and instead buy their over priced corrupted Bibles by the millions.
 King James (1611) The King James Authorized Version of the Bible became the seventh purification of the English translations and is as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. The "Puritans" vowed to remove the remnants of Roman Catholicism from the Church of England. Thus Dr. John Reynolds, president of  Corpus Christ College at Oxford, suggested to  King James that a translation be produced that the common people could understand, read, and love. This undertaking began when approximately one thousand ministers sent a petition to King James, It was finally agreed that a new translation, absolutely true to the original Greek text, be made which would not include any marginal notes or comments. No marginal notes were incorporated into this translation, except for explanations of Greek or Hebrew words and the provision of cross-references.
The King James Bible Translators:
The KJB translators faithfully translated the Textus Receptus (Those manuscripts came from Antioch) into English. In 1604, a group of 54 of the best scholars in England was chosen and divided into six teams, with each team assigned the task of translating a different portion of scripture. Each man on each team had to translate every word of his team's assigned portion. Then, these individual translations were collectively compared with those of the other team members. Discrepancies were voted on, bringing each team to agreement on its assigned portion of the scripture. Then, each team passed its work on to each of the other teams for their scrutiny and approval. Thus each scripture was examined at least fourteen times! The work took seven years and was completed in 1611.
 So, don't be fooled by marketing gimmicks! -2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself  approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly  dividing the word of truth.
But, buy and study only from "1611 The King James Authorized Version of the Bible" along with a good concordance.

We here at The American Wisdom Series feel confident that the official 1611 King James version of "The Companion Bible" is the most accurate and unaltered Bible still available and being sold today.

Readers of The Companion Bible are put in possession of information denied to former generations of translators, commentators, critics, and general Bible students. Because of "The Massorah".

All the oldest and best manuscripts of the Hebrew Bible contain on every page, beside the Text (which is arranged in two or more columns), a varying number of lines of smaller writing, distributed between the upper and lower margins. This smaller writing is called the Massorah Magna or Great Massorah, while that in the side margins and between the columns is called the Massorah Parva or
Small Massorah. The illustration given below is a reduced facsimile of a Hebrew Manuscript (16.25 x 12.375), written in a German hand, about the year A.D. 1120.
The small writing in the margins in this particular Manuscript is seen to occupy seven lines in the lower margin, and four lines in the upper; while in the outer margins and between the three columns is the Massorah Para.

The word Massorah is from the root masar, to deliver something into the hand of another, so as to commit it to his trust. Hence the name is given to the small writing referred to, because it contains information necessary to those into whose trust the Sacred Text was committed, so that they might transcribe it, and hand it down correctly.
The Text itself had been fixed before the Massorites were put in charge of it. 
This had been the work of the Sopherim (from saphar, to count, or number). Their work, under Ezra and Nehemiah, was to set the Text in order after the return from Babylon; and we read of it in Nehemiah 8:8 1(compare Ezra 7:6,11). The men of "the Great Synagogue" completed the work. This work lasted about 110 years, from Nehemiah to Simon the first, 410-300 B.C.
The Sopherim were the authorized revisers of the Sacred Text; and, their work being completed, the Massorites were the authorized custodians of it. Their work was to preserve it. The Massorah is called "A Fence to the Scriptures," because it locked all words and letters in their places. It does not contain notes or comments as such, but facts and phenomena. It records the number of times the several letters occur in the various books of the Bible; the number of words, and the middle word; the number of verses, and the middle verse; the number of expressions and combinations of words, etc. All this, not from a perverted ingenuity, but for the set purpose of safeguarding the Sacred Text, and preventing the loss or misplacement of a single letter or word.
This Massorah is not contained in the margins of any one
Manuscript. No Manuscript contains the whole, or even the same part. It is spread over many Manuscripts, and Dr. C.D. Ginsburg has been the first and only scholar who has set himself to collect and collate the whole, copying it from every available Manuscript in the libraries of many countries. He has published it in three large folio volumes, and only a small number of copies has been printed. These are obtainable only by the original subscribers When the Hebrew Text was later printed, only the large type in the columns was regarded, and small type of the Massorah was left, unheeded, in the Manuscripts from which the Text was taken. Therefore; When translators came to the printed Hebrew Text, they were necessarily destitute of the information contained in the Massorah; so that the Revisers as well as the Translators of the Authorized Version carried out their work without any idea of the treasures contained in the Massorah; and therefore, without giving a hint of it to their readers.
The Companion Bible, is the first time, an edition of the Authorized Version has been given containing any of these treasures of the Massorah, that affect so seriously the understanding of the Text. A vast number of the Massoretic notes concern only the orthography, and matters that pertain to the Concordance. But many of those which affect the sense, or throw any additional light on the Sacred Text, are noted in the margin of The Companion Bible.
Some of the important lists of words which are contained in the Massorah are also given, videlicet, those that have the "extraordinary points" (Appendix 31); the "eighteen emendations" of the Sopherim (see Appendix 33); the 134 passages where they substituted Adonai for Jehovah (see Appendix 32); and the Various Readings called Severin (see Appendix 34). These are given in separate Appendixes; but other words of any importance are preserved in our marginal notes.
Readers of The Companion Bible are put in possession of information denied to former generations of translators, commentators, critics, and general Bible students.
For further information on the Massorah see Dr. Ginsburg's Introduction to the Hebrew Bible, of which only a limited edition was printed; also a small pamphlet on The Massorah published by King's Printers.
NOTE
1 The Talmud explains that "the book" meant the original text; "distinctly" means explaining it by giving the Chaldee paraphrase; "gave the sense" means the division of words, etc. according to the  sense; and "caused them to understand the reading" means to give the traditional pronunciation of the words (which were then without vowel points).

Why is it that most churches don't teach us about the prehistoric age of the world that then was? (The age of the dinosaurs}
The apostle Peter [2 Peter 3:6,7 & 13] explains the three world ages to us
and how people are "willingly" ignorant (stupid) about how the "world that then was" perished. Why are they ignorant (stupid)? Because the churches aren't teaching it! Maybe because most preachers are ignorant of it!

Satan's Locust Army

What we're seeing happening here is the complete and total destruction by Satan's locust army.

The Book of Joel gives us the details of  

that fearsome locust army from the 9th chapter of Revelation.
There is no doubt whatsoever that the Book of Joel  was written concerning the judgment and events of "the last days"
that usher in the "Day of the Lord" and the return of Jesus Christ.
In fact, the prophecy of Joel is undated
and there is no reference to time
(though Peter will set the clock on Pentecost Day)
because it speaks of the very same "Day of the Lord"
that John was taken to "in the spirit" in the Book of Revelation (Rev. 1:10).
Revelation, which means to "uncover" or "reveal",
really contains nothing new that isn't explained in detail elsewhere in the Word of God.

To that end, this Book of Joel gives us the details of that fearsome locust army
in the 9th chapter of Revelation and also how God's warning, His Word,
would be "Trumpeted" in the last days.

Furthermore, as we alluded to earlier,
the Apostle Peter would let us know with certitude
that the Book of Joel was written concerning the events of "the last days"
when he stood up on Pentecost Day in Acts chapter two,
after witnessing those through whom the Holy Spirit
spoke concerning the wonderful works of God,
and said "But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel (Acts 2:16)".

In other words, Peter said that what they were "seeing"
was an example of what Joel described would happen in the last days,
i.e. during the final generation.

Also, if you are fortunate enough to have a Companion Bible
you should turn to page 1224
and familiarize yourself with the four part structure
outlining the simple message of our Father through His servant Joel.

That message can also be summarized in one sentence:
"Listen closely My children, for though the following unpleasant events
described herein must take place,
if you will repent and turn to me you shall emerge unharmed
and live with Me happily ever after."

Again, the subject of Joel is the "Day of the LORD"
declaring that a destruction SHALL COME
in the form of devastating and vicious spiritual destruction
that will consume like a plague of locusts all those
who do not have the "Seal of God" in their foreheads* (Rev. 9:4).

Yes, it is coming soon, it is even nigh at hand,
so you servants of the Most High
need to sound the alarm in His Purple Mountains Majesty
and Blow the Trumpet in Zion!

These two verses sum up the knowledge and the duty of a servant of God in these last days:

Joel 1:15 Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come. 

Joel 2:1 Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;

Note: If you have studied the Word of God through His prophets of old, i.e. in the OT, by the time you get to the Book of Revelation you will know all about locusts and who they actually represent. They are the spiritually deadly army of the false-christ, Apollyon, the son of perdition, the king of the bottomless pit, their lowlife leader.

No further introduction is necessary so let's get started.

 All you who are in charge of your families (Joel 1:3). Ask yourselves if you have ever seen anything like this before in your life that is even anywhere close to what I'm about to tell you?

Joel 1:1 The word of the LORD that came to Joel the son of Pethuel.

Our Father lets us know that these are His words, not man's, that He has given us through His servant Joel, the son of Pethuel, whose name means "vision man of God". That's cool, because it is written in this book that in the last days the young men, i.e. the sons and daughters of the prophets, will see (understand) visions, i.e. the visions God gave to their fathers, like the one we are studying now!

[2] Hear this, ye old men, and give ear, all ye inhabitants of the land. Hath this been in your days, or even in the days of your fathers?

Listen closely and take heed ye elders, all you who are in charge of your families (vs. 3). Ask yourselves if you have ever seen anything like this before in your life that is even anywhere close to what I'm about to tell you? So pay attention, listen and learn, and then pass it on!

[3]Tell ye your children of it, and let your children tell their children, and their children another generation.

Tell your generations and their generations until the last generation (of sons and daughters) is here, which is the generation when all these things He has foretold us shall be fulfilled (Mat. 24:34). And He has foretold us all things, the details of which He told us through His prophets: Mark 13:23 "But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things."

---

Editors Note: (If you have studied the Parable of the Fig Tree (http://www.americanwisdomseries.com #7009) which Christ commanded us to do in Mat. 24 and Mark 13, then you are one of those who know that "final generation", the one which would not pass away before Christ returns, began on May 15, 1948, when the fig tree was planted in the land of Judea when the UN gave sanction to the State of Israel! Yes, there will be Baby Boomers who shall see all these things fulfilled!)

---

By the way, if your father or one of your forefathers has broken this commandment of God in Joel 1:3 to tell your children His words contained herein, then YOU get busy studying His Word and learn the truth and restart the process with your children. John 14:15 "If ye love me, keep my commandments." Fellow Christian be wise, Joel 1:3 is a commandment! and Jesus said, "if you love me keep it"

The Gnawer, The Swarmer, The Devourer and The Consumer.
These four stages describe the complete and total destruction by Satan's locust army.

Joel 1:4
That which the palmerworm hath left hath the locust eaten; and that which the locust hath left hath the cankerworm eaten; and that which the cankerworm hath left hath the caterpiller eaten.

When our Father uses an analogy of a person, or an animal, or a place, or a thing, we are supposed to understand the characteristics of that person, place, or thing in order to gain a more in-depth understanding of that which He would have us know. Therefore we need to know at least the basics of what locusts are and how they behave and especially how they eat since that is what verse four describes them doing in Four Different Stages.

"What are locusts?

Locusts are insects belonging to the order Orthoptera. They are identical in appearance to grasshoppers with which they share the family Acrididae. The only difference between the two types of insects is that locusts can exist in two different behavioural states (solitary and gregarious) whereas grasshoppers do not. When the population density is low locusts behave as individuals, much like grasshoppers. However, when the population density is high locusts form highly mobile gregariously behaving bands of nymphs or swarms of adults. It is this change from one behavioural state to another, known as phase change, that makes locusts such devastating pests. Phase change may be accompanied by changes in body shape and colour, and in fertility, survival and migratory behaviour. These changes are so dramatic in many species that the swarming and non-swarming forms were once considered to be different species."

Those of you with eyes to see and ears to hear, who understand about the latter day rain, might find the following information of great interest:

"What causes a locust plague? In general, locust plagues occur when widespread areas of inland Australia receive good rainfall in successive seasons. High rainfall stimulates good growth of grass rendering the habitat ideal for locust breeding."

It is the gentle rain that falls from heaven, from God's Word, that gives "life" and makes things "green" as was declared long ago in that great "Song of Moses" which the overcomers of Satan and his locust army will be singing at the victory celebration in Rev. 15:3.

Deut. 32:2  My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass.

Yes, our Father pours out the rain to make the earth bring forth abundantly, but the locusts swarm to consume everything that is "green" before them, leaving nothing but desolation and waste behind them.

Also, you will find the four stages of the locust noted in your Companion Bible which are as follows:

The Gnawer
The Swarmer
The Devourer
The Consumer

These four stages describe the complete and total destruction by Satan's locust army. "4" is also the number which denotes "earth" (see appendix 10 in your Companion Bible) for the whole earth is consumed in the wake of the locusts. They also describe their MO, their method of operation as to how they enter in and the stages by which the locusts, through the Four Hidden Dynasties, devour the earth.  Just remember that the locusts spoken of here in Joel and in Revelation are symbolic of MEN, not insects, for they make up the "nation" we shall read of in verse 6!

There are many, many different analogies used throughout the scriptures to describe the deception of these last days.

Lets pause with another warning and wake up call to those Christians who are spiritually drunk from sipping the wine from the cup held to their lips by the religious harlot of Rev. 17, which is churchianity following after the traditions of men.

Joel 1:5  Awake, ye drunkards, and weep; and howl, all ye drinkers of wine, because of the new wine; for it is cut off from your mouth.

The new wine is the truth of God's Word which never reaches their lips because these "drinkers of wine" who think they obey God's commands (though they have never studied His Word enough to know what they are and therefore do not do them, i.e. are not doers of the Word) drink from the golden cup of idolatry held in the hand of the great religious whore described in Rev. 17!

Rev. 17:4  And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:

Purple and scarlet are the colors of royalty and the priesthood. Those who have studied the Book of Hosea know that adultery and fornication are symbolic terms for religious idolatry, which is a form of worship made to appear to the spiritually "drunk" as Christianity, when in fact it is only churchianity where "the new wine" is not found. It is even written that if you try to put new wine (truth) into those old brittle "wine skins" they will burst asunder from the fermentation, which is the purification process of His Word (Mark 2:22).

There are many, many different analogies used throughout the scriptures to describe the deception of these last days. The one we are learning here in the Book of Joel is that the truth has already been cut off from the mouths of the spiritually drunk for it has been consumed away by the unholy nation of locusts! Yes, a nation!

Joel 1:6  For a nation is come up upon my land, strong, and without number, whose teeth are the teeth of a lion, and he hath the cheek teeth of a great lion.

Again, by the time you read about the locust army in Rev. 9 you will already know that the harmless looking little locusts, which by themselves seem like such nice people, do rip and tear like the great cheek teeth of a lion when they "swarm" upon the land.

Rev. 9:7  And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men.

Horses are symbolic of power and these locusts (men) are like the horses prepared for the great endtime battle when the trumpets blow! In this prophetic sense it refers to the Four Horses of Rev. 6, those first Four Seals which are the Four Hidden Dynasties of Religion/doctrine of many of our Christian churches, (The Man on a White Horse), Politics/political direction of our country, (The Man on a Red Horse), Economics/economic direction our country has taken, (The Man on a Black Horse) and Education/teachings of our schools and media. (The Man on a Pale Horse), i.e. "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" 

You see, "on their heads were as it were crowns like gold", which means they control the kings (crowns) of the earth, behind the scene so to speak, and "their faces were as the faces of men" because although you do not see many of those who actually wear the crowns, i.e. are in charge, they are MEN, not insects!

Do you know who the Kenite scribes are?"

---

Note: There is a time coming soon when the leader of the locusts, Apollyon, who is Satan himself, is cast out of heaven (Rev. 12:7-9) along with his angels, and the final stage of the locust army swarms the earth. We shall cover more of that later, but if a person isn't familiar with ground troops who have been marching and chomping away, he or she will not recognize the air support when it arrives as belonging to the enemy. (If you do not understand that at this point, just chill out and we'll explain it in detail at a later time.)

---

Rev 9:8 And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions.

They appear to be gentle as a woman, which is what the figure of speech "had hair as the hair of a women" means. In other words, their "covering" of hair is just a disguise, a cover-up, because when they open their mouths, they rip and shred and tear like the "biters" of a lion. This is no different than the analogy used of false preachers described as "wolves in sheep clothing"!

Let's identify what "nation" Joel is speaking of in verse 6 who will be so strong and burdensome to our people. We find the answer in the Book of Amos, whose name means "burden"! This is the same book that details what the great famine of the end time is that Christ told us in Mat. 24 and Mark 13 would be a SIGN of the times before He returns. The famine is not for bread but for the "hearing of the Word of God" (Amos 8:11-13). Neither are the locusts insects, but men of great deception!

Joel 1:6  For a nation is come up upon my land, strong, and without number, whose teeth are the teeth of a lion, and he hath the cheek teeth of a great lion.

Amos 6:14  But, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the LORD the God of hosts; and they shall afflict you from the entering in of Hemath unto the river of the wilderness.

First, "unto the river of the wilderness" is also a figure of speech which simply means "to the end of the river" or in other words, "until the end of time", meaning the end of this earth age. So from the time Hemath enters into the true House of Israel, even into this great nation of America, our people would be afflicted until Jesus Christ returns.The only thing left to know is "Who is Hemath?" That's a no-brainer if you seek the answer in God's Word. You will find in the Book of Chronicles that Hemath is the father of the Kenites of the house of Rechab who were not of Israel but had affixed themselves to the tribes of Israel and became their scribes.

1 Chron. 2:55  And the families of the scribes which dwelt at Jabez; the Tirathites, the Shimeathites, and Suchathites. These are the Kenites that came of Hemath, the father of the house of Rechab.

The next question is: "Do you know who the Kenites are?" The word "kenite" is a "transliteration", which is simply when you convert the letters of one language into the letters of another. That differs from a "translation" where you convert a word to its meaning. The meaning of "kenite" comes from the Hebrew word "Qayin" or "Kayin" who is known to us English speaking peoples as "Cain". You see, the letter "Koph", ÷, in Hebrew, the first letter in the name Kayin, Qayin, Cain, has the sound of a "K" or a "Q" or a hard "C", just like the names Kathy and Cathy are pronounced exactly the same way in English. A Cainite, or Kenite, is therefore a son of, or descendent of Cain (not to be confused with a Canaanite).

Here is Strong's definition:

ïP÷­ qayin kah'-yin #7014
The same as H7013 (with a play upon the affinity to H7069); Kajin, the name of the first child, also of a place in Palestine, and of an Oriental tribe:—Cain, Kenite (-s).

We will discuss more of these locusts and even give the date when they entered into the "storehouse" of United States of America and began gnawing away! Hint: It was about the same time as the 1st of the Four Stages of Zionism. Oh, here is the Hebrew definition of "storehouse".

From H686; a depository:—armory, cellar, garner, store(-house), treasure (-house) (-y).

OK, I too hate it when someone keeps me in suspense. It was 1913!  More in our next study. What year did we give up the gold standard for our currency in the good old USA?

So it is time to WAKE UP, ye drunkards who stagger in a spiritual stupor caused by old wine produced from the valley of the traditions of men. The new wine, the truth of God's Word, has been cut off from your mouths.

Joel 1:5  Awake, ye drunkards, and weep; and howl, all ye drinkers of wine, because of the new wine; for it is cut off from your mouth.

Do you remember who it is that causes the new wine to be cut off? It is a false nation, a nation likened unto devouring locusts who will rip and tear like the cheek teeth of a great lion and strip bare all that is green with life and liberty and happiness before them, leaving total spiritual desolation in their wake.

Joel 1:6  For a nation is come up upon my land, strong, and without number, whose teeth are the teeth of a lion, and he hath the cheek teeth of a great lion.

In our last study we identified this nation from Amos 6:4 as stemming from the kenite controlled nation from the house of Hemath. It grows into the New World Order which is then headed by Apollyon, king of the locust army! Rev. 9:11 "And they [the locusts] had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon." Do you know who he is? Oh good, you looked it up Strong's Concordance! That's right, he is the Destroyer, the Abomination of Desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet, i.e. the abominable one who destroys or makes desolate!

EÁðïëëýùí Apolluoônap-ol-loo'-ohn
Active participle of G622; a destroyer (that is, Satan):—Apollyon.

It is also interesting to note the Hebrew definition of "nation" in both Joel 1:6 and Amos 6:4:

éBb ébÉgoòy go'ee,go'-ee
Apparently from the same root as H1465 (in the sense of massing); a foreign nation; hence a Gentile; also (figuratively) a troop of animals, or a flight of locusts:—Gentile, heathen, nation, people.

However, it should be made quite clear that our Father takes full responsibility for sending this nation against His people. In fact, in Joel 2:11 He will call this locust army "His army" but let us understand why He allows them to come upon His people to test them, prior to our Lord's return!

And; To the end time church of Philadelphia, The Lord says, Rev. 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.

Message to you folks who have read and/or regularly read The American Wisdom Series. If the Holy Spirit is telling you that you should be helping to plant seeds of truth in people's minds in order to further our Lord's Kingdom, but you feel He has not yet given you the necessary talent to do so, on your own; And if you believe the message presented here on my American Wisdom Series web site is correct and true, and will plant seeds, as our Lord wants us to plant them, in order to further His Kingdom, and you would like to contribute financially.

Let me say this: "I do not accept any direct support for this ministry. I don't believe the Lord wants me to be carrying a beggars bag.  However, since I am now 74 years old and don't plan on being around in this animal body forever; And I would like to keep the message I present available for people to see and learn from, I will allow people, who want to help me plant seeds of truth in people's minds, to pay for web hosting costs, even after I've gone home to be with the Lord".

If you choose to do so I believe it best to send a check directly to  ChristianWebHost Web Hosting, 111 2nd ave NE, Suite 620, St Petersburg, FL 33701 for $178.52, along with a note to apply it for americanwisdomseries.com site service and domain name for a future year.
This will cover cost for one year which includes the "americanwisdomseries" ($35.00) domain name renewal and "Christianwebhost" ($143.52) web hosting service fee. 
I don't know if they would be willing to accept a smaller amount and apply it in advance towards the americanwisdomseries account, as a partial payment to the account. If $178.52 is more then you had in mind you could ask them that. I would certainly appreciate the help.
 That way no money passes through my fingers, and I'll sure feel better about it!

Sincerely,
John

May the Lord bless you and the Holy Spirit be your Guide!

If Eve only ate an apple 

what did the serpent do to her?  Genesis 3:14  And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:

"New World Order"

Hello, we have all heard of the term "New World Order," and it has been described by it's proponents as "The uniting of all the worlds governments and citizenry for the common good of mankind in general, and all peoples individually on the planetary scale; the designed mechanism to eradicate global pollution, overpopulation, poverty, sickness, religious conflict, and all war."  Sounds good, right?  I mean who couldn't get behind that?  Don't be so sure just yet, not so quick, let's look at the bigger picture, let's look a little deeper and see what God's Word has said about this prophetic, foretold of in Scripture, world system of government.  

Surely God in His prophecies would not leave unmentioned the uniting of His world under a one-world global system of governance.

 "Mystery Babylon"  The New World Order

(KJV)Zechariah 8:20-23---20 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities: 21 And the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the LORD, and to seek the LORD of hosts: I will go also. 22 Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the LORD. 23 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.!!!!!!!But wait, There is more to this story!!!!!!!(KJV)Revelation 17:11-13---11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. 12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. 13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.

Evolution - The Fairy Tale for Adults
In Grimms' Fairy Tales someone kisses a frog and in two seconds it becomes a prince.>>>>>That is a fairy tale.
In evolution, some scientist kisses a frog, and in two million years, it becomes a
prince.>>>>>That is so-called science.             It is simply a faith.

Evolution is a time-honored scientific tenet of faith!

Are you saved? Have you claimed Christ's blood as a covering for your sins? But, you are still not receiving many blessings. Maybe you now have some unrepented and therefore unforgiven sin in your life.
Pray that the Holy Spirit will search you and try to see if there is still anything wicked in you that you have not confessed and forsaken. When the Holy Spirit brings something to mind as you wait before him, write it down. Having written that down, wait and ask again, "Holy Spirit of God, search me and try me."
Wait again, and you'll get a special delivery letter. Continue to ask and wait, until you can---perhaps, and most likely for the first time in your life---wait before God with a conscience free of offence towards Him and/or your fellow human beings. I can think of no greater blessing. Evan this doesn't mean we are perfect, of course, but it means there is nothing that will come to mind that you have not confessed, repented of, and forsaken.
