God used evil men wanting to track every person in the world before the antichrist comes to rule, to provide a medium for believers to reach the entire world with the gospel from their own chairs in their own homes, or their cars, or their barns or wherever else they are with their computers.
Amazing when you think about it!!! It only proves my point and God's word, that everything that happens to the believer has a purpose, even if God is using evil people to accomplish His will.
Romans 8:27-28 "27 And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. 28 And we know that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose. "
He is now using this pandemic to get people out of those apostate churches, out of the bars, the movie theaters, the parties, and everything else that dishonors God. Who would have thunk it just a year ago? And, He is showing the world how vulnerable and helpless they are without Christ. God has even thrown people back into their homes to spend time with their own families.
Good times, good times, to be alive when prophecy is playing out and we will be seeing miracles of God's provision when we may not have a way to fix things. What a blessing to know what is coming next.

Blasphemous Teachings
There are so many blasphemous teachings coming out of the apostate church it is somewhat like putting out brush fires. As soon as you have handled one you are faced with handling another one.
The sad thing is that when we address these heresies we quickly see the people who talk about them are convinced of them and will not listen to proof from God's Word.
There is a measure of pride involved in embracing these extra-biblical teachings. The love of "special" knowledge just l like the gnostics practiced has returned for another pass in these last days.
Reform, the belief that God has replaced Israel is one of them.
The belief of devils mating with humans is another.
The teaching that God gave an exception clause for people to dissolve their marriages and that remarriage is encouraged by God is a denial of God's own word.
The one-man pastor system in which the pastor is the only one in the gathering who has the truth, taking the Catholic form of "priesthood."
There are many many more in these last days, probably more than we can count. The solution to remain untainted by all the various heresies is to stay to the Bible, if a question arises or a new thought appears, instantly return to the Bible and the leading of the Holy Spirit to stay in the truth.
Reading too many articles or books of the various deceptions will confuse, that's what they are designed to do.
Matthew 24:10-12 "10 At that time many will fall away and will betray one another and hate one another. 11 Many false prophets will arise and will mislead many. 12 Because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold."
Another prayer to attend to is that of clarification as to our own beliefs. Never use your own logic or the logic of others to determine the truth. Always ask God and go to the Bible, God will tell us the truth, it will not be of our own interpretation or anyone's else's.
2 Peter 1:20-21
1:20 But know this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of one’s own interpretation, 21 for no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God."

One Cannot Follow Calvin and Christ Too!
Calvinists treat those who do not agree with them as less than them. There is arrogance wrapped up in the theology of Calvinism.
Sadly too, they don't even realize they are following a man who was steeped in Catholicism even though he left that system. Calvin's favorite writer was Augustine, a ruthless Catholic bishop who never left the Catholic church.
When someone says they are a Calvinist they are saying they follow that man instead of Christ. One cannot follow Calvin first and then Christ second. If they followed Christ alone they would never bring up the name of Calvin.
1 Corinthians 3:3-5 "…3 for you are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and dissension among you, are you not worldly? Are you not walking in the way of man? 4 For when one of you says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” are you not mere men? 5 What then is Apollos? And what is Paul? They are servants through whom you believed, as the Lord has assigned to each his role.…"
For someone to say they are a Calvinist they are violating scripture by following a man. One cannot be a Christian and a Calvinist too! If someone says I follow Calvin then they are not following Christ.

If you are Proud to be an American then You Endorse its Wickedness
If I were going to fly the America flag it would be upside down. In a battle, the upside-down flag is a symbol of a nation in distress. We are deeply distressed and sinking further into sin every day.
I cannot be proud of a country that murders 4,000 babies a day, allows pornography to be rampant, a movie industry that promotes filth and rebellion in our young, worships false gods, perverts the gospel to mean health and wealth, a nation in which divorce and remarriage is rampant and Christians fight those who say it is sin. Are you proud that our nation has endorsed homosexual marriage?
Americans have nothing to be proud about!!!! Rather we should be ashamed, deeply ashamed!!!
Many people live in a fantasy world of make-believe, they think as long as they want to believe something it must be true.....in other words....."feelings are facts."
Stop saying "God bless America" and stop saying "I am proud to be an American." All this is is a sign of arrogance that endorses the freedom to sin as much as one wants without any consequences. If you are proud of America then you are proud of sin and debauchery.
