The Royal Telephone


  1. Central’s never “busy,” always on the line;
    You may hear from heaven almost any time;
    ’Tis a royal service, free for one and all;
    When you get in trouble, give this royal line a call.
  2. Telephone to glory, oh, what joy divine!
    • I can feel the current moving on the line,
      Built by God the Father for His loved and own,
      We may talk to Jesus through this royal telephone.
  3. There will be no charges, telephone is free,
    It was built for service, just for you and me;
    There will be no waiting on this royal line,
    Telephone to glory always answers just in time.
  4. Fail to get the answer, Satan’s crossed your wire,
    By some strong delusion, or some base desire;
    Take away obstructions, God is on the throne,
    And you’ll get your answer through this royal telephone.
  5. If your line is “grounded,” and connection true
    Has been lost with Jesus, tell you what to do:
    Prayer and faith and promise mend the broken wire,
    Till your soul is burning with the Pentecostal fire.
  6. Carnal combinations cannot get control
    Of this line to glory, anchored in the soul;
    Storm and trial cannot disconnect the line,
    Held in constant keeping by the Father’s hand divine.

I Do Not Know About Tomorrow: But I Know Who Holds My Hand!



For thousands of years people have tried to predict the future and some have even claimed, as we have seen recently, to tell the future. Sometimes a few people have made some pretty good predictions. As Christians we know that only the Holy Bible has been, and always will be one hundred percent accurate in prophecies about the future. There has been many prophecies fulfilled in the old Testament by the coming of Jesus and there are more that remain to be fulfilled and we know, as believers in The Lord,  they will take place. We have a true source to all the future in God's Word.
As Christians we are aware of Jesus' promise to return to the earth, but there is is another promised event that some people fail to realize because some are less familiar with and that is the rapture of the church.
 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore comfort one another with these words  {1Thessalonians 4: 16,17,18}
Some people may laugh, at what I'm saying, but one day without warning, every born again believer, who is alive on this earth will suddenly just disappear. Like the song says "GONE". They will join believers who have died, and all will meet Jesus in the clouds. The sad thing is all those that are left behind will face the worse time in the history of the world. Those people may think that it is bad now on this earth but just wait! It will be to late for for those that heard the truth of the gospel message and rejected it.
So what will the future hold for those who are left behind? Beginning  after the rapture, the tribulation will start off with a time of great peace because a man will rise to power {I think he is already here} as a great peace maker, but that will soon change. There will be, and already is, a secret power of lawlessness at work that reminds us the end is coming. Evil will become more and more unrestrained and not held back as the history of this world comes to a close.
Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come,except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed , the son of perdition;Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come,except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed , the son of perdition; {2Thessalonians 2: 3,4}
We see the evil getting worse everyday and it will continue to do so and even more so after the rapture of the church. That secret power of lawlessness is a behind the scene activity of evil powers that has operated throughout the course of human history. It is a one hundred percent evil and destructive process that deceives and entraps those people who reject the Lord and the truth of the gospel. It also turns some of the church world from the truth faith and they will except the lies that will be more and more common in the church. I would say that Chrislam is one of the lies that are being excepted today in the church. We as followers of the Lord must be ready because the end is near. Even so come Lord Jesus!

Will America Be Left Desolate?




"What will be the sign of your coming and the end of the age? [Matthew 24:3]
Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.          [Matthew 23:38]




Jesus told the people in who lived in Jerusalem, in that day: "Behold your house is left unto you desolate" The word desolate means to be abandoned,wasted,derelict, devastated, and ravaged. Jesus words, that He, spoke to the people of Jerusalem, in that day, came to pass in 70 A.D. Jerusalem and its temple were destroyed by the Roman Army. Jesus gave the reason for the overthrow in Matthew 23:37: "Oh Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou killest the prophets and stonest them which are sent unto thee. How often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings and ye would not!"
In this verse we can plainly see that the Lord takes notice of what the people in Jerusalem were doing to His prophets and His people. We must take note that nothing escapes the Lord's eyes and sooner or later all will be held accountable. The same goes for America. We will all be held accountable for our actions. 


We have to ask our self this question: "Will America's house be left desolate?" The majority of the population in America have rejected Jesus and His Word. The turning away from God's word, the violence and corruption that we are seeing in our society are fruits of that rejection. Homosexuals have their own rights, we kill unborn babies by the millions, a sky rocketing divorce rate, adultery and fornication, and more and more churches are closing their doors or have give place to strange doctrines. The list could go on. America is marching down the road to destruction, and has but one hope. That hope is Jesus Christ! America must repent and turn back to God!

There is a story in the Book of Jonah about God's plan to destroy a wicked city named Nineveh . Before the destruction came God sent a warning through the prophet Jonah. The wicked city, from the king down heeded the warning from Jonah, they repented, and turned back to God. God responded in mercy and that wicked city was spared from God's wrath. Will America follow the same path of repentance in theses last days or will America's House be left desolate, abandoned by God and His mercy? Will America be like Sodom? From the president on down  the people, in America, must get on their knees and call out to God!


Nineveh was a "Great City", but could not discern between their left or right hand. Through out the Bible God demanded repentance. Repentance demands that a person sees their self as they are, "A SINNER". Until that happens no one can truly repent. The people of Nineveh listened, from the king on down, and believed, because they heard the word of God preached to them. Without his preaching there would have been little hope for that city. They had faith in Jonah's preaching. So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. (Romans 10:17) 


As with all true born again believers my prayer is: "Dear God please spare America! For just fifty righteous people (one in each state, Lord will you spare America? Will you spare that which was once so proudly called the home of the brave and the land of the free? You dear God once shed your Amazing Grace on us."  It is time for America to realize this and Repent!

Luke Warm Christians: Perilous Times Will Come

But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come:  For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,  unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, 4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!
What "perilous times" was the apostle Paul speaking of? The world, since the beginning of time, has always known perilous times. There has always been tribulations, persecutions, and hardships. These things have been seen by every generation. I am persuaded, in my studies of God's and history, that the "perilous times"  the apostle Paul was speaking about is the events that happen just before the Great Tribulation period which is still to come and I believe, it will come, in the very near future.
How many people who claim to be Christians really know and believe that we are living in the last days? I dare say not many!  Most true, blood bought, Christians know that we are living in the last days, so why does the church world, in general not see the same thing? The answer is this: It is because Satan has been very good at deceiving the church world. What I mean is this: Most of the church world's interest, their attention, and their thoughts are centered around the things of this present world, with not much at all of the heavenly things. They are not concerned about the rapture of the church or of things to come. The interest in most churches today is of prosperity and greed. They think of nothing else. So where does that leave the church world? IN PERILOUS TIMES!
 One of the most shifty and sneaky characteristics about the “perilous times of these Last Days” is the spiritual and religious deception that will spread through out the world. Deception, lying spirits, wonders, a deceiving doctrine and false movements in the last days will be the greeting and the calling card of the Antichrist and the False Prophet. Many churches today not only deny the doctrinal truths of the Bible, but they also integrated (bring into the church) and merged some of the most sacrilegious and profane ideals in the world, into the very makeup of the church. Most churches today are seeker-friendly and teach a “feel good” gospel that never offends, leaving out basic truths like sin, and hell. You never hear what you are being saved from!  I got news for these churches: "The Word of God is like a two edge sword and it can cut both ways! People need to hear about God's love, His Mercy, and His grace, but the people also need to hear about sin, what sin is, and hell!
 What is the Christian's responsibility to Christ in the last days?  (Romans 12:1)  I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. Paul tells us what is to be expected of Christians in theses last days. "Be not conformed to this world". How we need some old time preachers who will preach the message of sanctification, God's Love, sin, and the rewards of sin, HELL!! We need preachers who are not weak kneed and stand on the truth of God's Holy Word! We need some men of God who will preach a well round Gospel. Ones that will speak the truth, in love, and deliver their souls. Ones that can say: "Lord I have did what you called me to do!" 
 Don't expect that the Rapture will occur before the "time of trouble" in America or other countries. There could be great calamities and tragedies in this and other counties before the rapture of the church. Many Christians are going through tribulation right now and there is no reason to think that Christians in America or any other country will escape the tribulations while their nations are rejecting God and living in evil. (We are not speaking of the Great Tribulation here, but the tribulations that will come just before to it) Those who even try to live a Godly life and speak out on Spiritual issues will be hated and persecuted just for speaking the truth.
 What is the Christian”s obligation to the church world and society in these last days? We are to be a light to a world that is in spiritual darkness. We need to find out what we can expect and what we need to do to survive. As Christians we should be grateful, because we have a guide that lays out the entire last days scene from the beginning to the end. It called The Holy Bible!

The Believer's Faith



But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.      (Hebrews 11:6)





Throughout the Bible, the faith of God's people was never slack on any thing or did they excepts things that were happening, it was a faith of action, whether they were in battle, seeking God for a answer, in deed, and what ever they set out to do, they had the faith that God was going to see them through. How many Christians today have that kind of faith? How many have that faith that says: "I know my God will see me through. My Lord can move this mountain".

If Abraham had never acted on his faith in God's promises, He would never have departed to the “land of milk and honey” or would he have been the father of a new nation. If Moses never acted on his faith in God, he would never have led the children of Israel out of Egypt. The Israelites would still be in Egypt, slaves to the Egyptians. If David never acted on His faith in God's word, He would never have defeated Goliath, let alone go out to met him. All these men of God had faith, They had the kind of faith that moves mountains. The Bible has many stories of God's people in times past whose faith was put into action. It was a action which God met His people with supernatural power to bring about miracles and results that have stood the test of time! The Lord is a re warder of faith! Even faith as small as a mustard seed.  If faith believing Christians would put their faith into action, we would see a new day of miracles. Miracles that would shock not only the worldly Christians but the whole world. Having faith is simply taking God at His word and then acting on it. Let faith arise in your souls. Take that step of faith! In order for any of us to receive anything from God we must:
  • Diligently seek Him with our whole heart.
  • Believe and have faith that He is a re warder of them that come to him in faith believing.
  • Believe in him and have faith that He will do what He said He would do.
  • Believe that not only that God exist but also that He the great "I AM" and by that He can do anything. After all He made the earth and all its fullness, so what can't He do? 
We can read in Hebrews Chapter 11 that these men of faith had more than just a faith in general, but rather they had great faith! As Children of God we must have great faith also. That great faith faith can be as small as a mustard seed as long as it is directed in the right place. Without this kind of faith no mountains in our life would ever be moved. Without the faith in the atoning death of our Savior we have no faith at all. Faith in the fact that Jesus bleed and died for us is the foundation of our faith.

When the believer comes to the point in his life when he can truly say: "I AM WEAK, BUT THOU ART STRONG" he then realizes that he has to trust God for everything and to allow the Holy Spirit to do it for him, that which he can not do on his own. That is when he will find great strength and GREAT FAITH! 

The Flesh Cannot Please God


I APPEAL to you therefore, brethren, and beg of you in view of [all] the mercies of God, to make a decisive dedication of your bodies [presenting all your members and faculties] as a living sacrifice, holy (devoted, consecrated) and well pleasing to God, which is your reasonable (rational, intelligent) service and spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you].    (Romans 12: 1-2) Amplified Bible

If you were on trial for being a Christian would there be enough evidence to convict you? As a Christian are you transformed (a dramatic change in form and appearance) from the things of this world? The very first evidence in a true Christians life is being consecrated to God and the transformation out of this world. This is not a outward action, but it is the renewing of your mind, and a seeking to do the will of the Lord, not just some of the time, but all the time! The physical body of any Christian is Holy, and it must be set apart for the Lord's use and to be used for pure and righteous purposes. The Lord will only except a Holy physical body. Some Christians seem to forget that. Remember this: The Christian is a member of the body of our Lord. We are temples of the Holy Spirit, consecrated, and are devoted to His service.

What is a Christian's reasonable service: "Present our bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God"  When a Christian does not do this they will try to function outside of what the Word of God teaches. A person can never do this on their own. It is The Holy Spirit that does the work and makes the Christian what he ought to be.  "Those in the flesh can not please God" When a Christian trys on their own he, or she, will always fail, no matter how they try. The physical body of the Christian is the way in which righteousness or unrighteousness is carried out. Either the Holy Spirit is controlling your mind or Satan is controlling it. A believer's physical body and the mind is always the first target of Satan.

It is the life that is obedient to God and separated from the world that provides the proof of a persons conversion. If the Christian is legally cleared of guilt before God and obedient to Him, he no longer "belongs" to the world; the Bible no longer perceives such a person as being "in the flesh." As born again Christians we need to be thankful that we, as God's Children have a home waiting on us in Heaven. We should be glad that we will live in heaven some day in the presence of God. But for all intent and purposes, we are right now,  a pilgrim and a stranger living in a foreign land. We are just passing through. Our treasures are laid up some where beyond the blue! Heaven is a blessing and it will be great when we are there, but here on this earth we need help everyday with our walk with God. Romans 12:1-2 give us some insight and help into an area of our walk with God that we can never over look. These two verses tell us, through Paul, what God wants and expects from His people.

A living sacrifice means that we are to be on the altar wherever we are. Regardless of the location or were we are at, we are to remember that our body and all it is belongs to God. There is never an second in our life when we are out of God's view or all seeing eye. We are not free to live as we please like some Christians try to do. For us to be a living sacrifice it will require that our fleshly body does not live for the world,  but everything our body does is held to the teaching of The Word of God. We are to be God's vessels, here on this earth, through which He can live and work in this world.

The bottom line of all this is that the sacrificing of the body is not something a person only does in church.  Every thing that we do and every activity that our body has a part in, must be something to glorifies and honor God. We must realizes that God must be in absolute control of our will, our emotions, our passions, and the deeds and the thoughts of our body.

THE TRUE CHURCH: Jesus Christ And Him Crucified


But [now] I am fearful, lest that even as the serpent beguiled Eve by his cunning, so your minds may be corrupted and seduced from wholehearted and sincere and pure devotion to Christ.
For [you seem readily to endure it] if a man comes and preaches another Jesus than the One we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the [Spirit] you [once] received or a different gospel from the one you [then] received and welcomed; you tolerate [all that] well enough!  
[2 Corinthians 11: 3-4] The Amplified Bible 
The Gospel, for the most part, is so easy to understand. I got the message when I was just a little boy, although it was years later that I excepted Jesus as my Savior. There is nothing hard to understand about the Gospel. It is the Blood of Jesus Christ and Him being crucified on the cross, that is the true Gospel. There, brothers and sisters, is were the faith of all Christians lays, at the Foot of the Old Rugged Cross. There is the foundation of Christianity! The Cross!

We can read in Paul's Epistles where some of the preachers of his day (the Jewish priest) who, said that Jesus was the Messiah, the Savior of the world, but also wanted to make other conditions for people to be saved. They wanted the Gentiles to keep the law as part of being saved. They were allowing another spirit to sneak into the church. Down through the years since then it has been the same thing in a lot of churches it is always Jesus and some other requirement to be saved. This should have never happened. It is only happening because Satan is using weak kneed and dollar seeking preachers to preach another gospel to the people.

 People for years have tried to twist the true Gospel of our Lord. They are like the Jews in Jesus' day. They keep adding on different things and requirements to be saved. This should never be! We have preachers today, in the church, that preach a different Gospel that I never knew and all for their own benefit. The prosperity message is a good one to use as an example. Years ago there was a preacher who preached a prosperity message and it always included the following words: "Get your pie in the sky." Needless to say, he had a big following, but you never heard about the finished work of our Lord, Jesus Christ. In other words he was preaching a different Gospel. Although we do not hear about "pie in the sky" anymore, we still have preachers who still preach that same message which is another Jesus. Religious men are always coming up with a new scheme to put out to the church and carnal people will always go for it.

Sad to say, but what is being preached on most churches in America today is "another gospel". It is not the one that I heard when growing up. As I get older I see clearly what is happening and it is scary. It use to be when a person was saved they realized they were a sinner in need of a Savior, they expressed a Godly sorrow, repented of their sins and asked for forgiveness. Now there is a doctrine going around in a lot of churches were people "Have made a commitment to do better." That is not Bible salvation. People by the thousands are going to these kind of churches. A person can be committed to Christ, but he has to be saved from his sins first.

We, now, have churches all over this land that has brought a new gospel in the doors and into the pulpit and the pews. It is called "Chrislam" which is no gospel at all. A religion of hate and a religion of love cannot and do not worship the same god. Bitter and sweet water do not run from the same fountain, Can two walk together if they do not agree?  But yet church leaders are welcoming it with open arms. They are allowing another spirit to sneak into the church. It is the spirit of the anti-christ that has already come into this world.

How many churches in America can say, today: "Inside this church, silver and gold  have we none, but such as we have we give to you. Not many that is for sure. The church of our Lord should be a place where the sick come to be healed,  a place where a person can come to and when they leave they can say: "I was lost but now I'm found, I was blind but now I see. Now in the most of our churches we have signs out front that say anything but that!  Fried chicken dinners, garage sales, Rock concert, Chrislam here, and many other things. All theses things will not draw one person to Christ. It is the anointed word of God that does the work. It is The Holy Spirit that draws a person to the Lord and nothing else.That is the true drawing power, not these other things.

There is a saying going around the internet: "Lets take our country back!" But I say unto you: "LETS TAKE OUR CHURCHES BACK AND OUR COUNTRY WILL FOLLOW!"
