Major Life decisions right now. I apologize to all my friends for the lack of communications. If your a praying person pray for me now that God's will be done. Not a health issue, hopefully things will wrap up here in a few weeks. God bless you all.

13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 King James Version

My recommendation would be to read from the King James Version as other newer translations are now being added to, taken away from and meanings are being changed.
Example: Where is Matthew chapter 17 verse 21 in the NIV and many, many other versions? ... Whatever the reason. please dear brethren. Stay in God's Word.

These are not my writings, however I'm 100% in agreement.

THE STAGE IS SET!

THE CONVERGENCE OF SIGNS!
So what are these signs? Jesus and the prophets pointed to dozens and dozens of signs. This article only cites a few, but each one is undeniable. Their convergence for the first time in history tells us the return of the Lord is close at hand.

1. Israel Back in the Land (Jeremiah 23:7-8; Ezekiel 39:28; Isaiah 11:12; Psalm 107:3; Ezekiel 20:34; Isaiah 11:11-12)
2. The Jewish People in Control of Jerusalem (Luke 21:24-28)
3. Israel Surrounded by Enemies (Psalm 83:4; Psalm 83:12; Ezekiel 11:14‐17; Ezekiel 35:10)
4. Israel’s Exceedingly Great Army (Ezekiel 37:10; Zechariah 12:6; Zechariah 12:8)
5. The Rise of a United Europe (Daniel 2, Daniel 7, Revelation 17)
6. The Rise of a Global Government (Revelation 13:7-17)
7. The State of Mankind (2 Timothy 3:1-4)
8. Denial of the Signs (2 Peter 3:3‐4)
9. Global Inflation. The Bible says the world will experience an unprecedented hyperinflation during the Tribulation. Following the global war outlined in Revelation 6:4, the world experiences a time when an entire day’s wages will cost for a loaf of bread.
10. Transhumanism : The Beast System is set up. The Bible says those who refuse the mark of the beast will be shut out of the global economy. They’ll be unable to buy or sell anything without it (Revelation 13:17). Today, we see the stage being set for the fulfillment of this prophecy.

He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
Revelation 22:20 King James Bible
