Why TRUMP could WIN

 

Ecclesiastes 3:17

King James Version

17 I said in mine heart, 

God shall judge the righteous and the wicked: 

for there is a time there for every purpose 

and for every work.

Who do you think will win the U.S. elections?

Where are you getting your facts from?

I had no idea I'd be writing this post.

Much less make a claim.

All I know is at the back of my mind, I was wondering if Trump would win.

I felt he could; if they would.

You know what happened in 2020.

If Elon had his way, it will be paper ballots.

And not electronic.

This, from a knowledgeable tech guy.

So, I searched Scripture for answers.

Looking for a spiritual "handle" on things.

Graciously, SPIRIT led me to significant things.

Making me take it one step at a time.

Sort of a "crash-course" in American politics.

One clue leading to another, and another.

Until He led me to a particular verse.

Which seemed to give the DEFINITIVE "answer".

But first, the sequence of fantastic eye-openers.

So, please be patient, and have a look:

1. Todd Friel corrects us all about the type of government America has. 

He said, "America is not a democracy!", but a "representative republic".

2. So I searched for "representative republic", and was led to 

John C. Aldieri's one-page pdf which explains the difference between "democracy" and "republic".

In simplest terms, he defines the difference:

"By definition, a republic is a representative form of  government that is ruled according to a charter, or constitution, and a democracy is a government that is ruled according to the will of the majority."

From that, Connecticut firefighter Aldieri also said:

"If your confused about what we have here in America,... its a Republic. " I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, 

and to the R E P U B L I C for which it stands. "

3. Picking up that "Pledge of Allegiance" thread, I discover the "pledge" at Wikipedia:

"I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

True enough, America is a REPUBLIC!

Note the "one nation under God" vital phrase.

"The first version was written in 1885 by Captain George Thatcher Balch, a Union Army officer in the Civil War who later authored a book on how to teach patriotism to children in public schools."

4. From that Wikipedia link, SPIRIT led me to the sub-heading, Addition of "under God":

"Louis Albert Bowman, an attorney from Illinois, was the first to suggest the addition of "under God" to the pledge. The National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution gave him an Award of Merit as the originator of this idea.[37][38] He spent his adult life in the Chicago area and was chaplain of the Illinois Society of the Sons of the American Revolution."

5. Bowman credited Abraham Lincoln for the words, "under God".

"At a meeting on February 12, 1948,[37] he led the society in reciting the pledge with the two words "under God" added. He said that the words came from Lincoln's Gettysburg Address."

-- Wikipedia

6. Naturally, I gravitated to Abraham Lincoln's "Gettysburg Address". 

The words "under God" were in it:

"that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain-that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom..."

-- "Voices of Democracy"

7. Wanting to know more about Lincoln, we looked to Wikipedia.

We learn that he was the 16th president of the United States.

And the FIRST Republican president, wow!

Am I on to something here, or what??!!

So, before Lincoln, 15 other presidents were either Federalists, Democratic Republicans (there was such a thing?), and Whigs.

This, I learned from my kids' book, "Mr. President, A Book of U.S. Presidents".

8. Appalled at how Kamala and her group have conducted themselves, I searched Scripture for verses describing their traits, and agenda.

I had to be sure why I was feeling the way I did about their antique "antics".

Satan's old tricks; just new faces.

Anyway, SPIRIT led me to these:

Matthew 7:15

King James Version

15 Beware of false prophets, 

which come to you in sheep's clothing, 

but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Matthew 24:11-14

King James Version

11 And many false prophets shall rise, 

and shall deceive many.

12 And because iniquity shall abound, 

the love of many shall wax cold.

13 But he that shall endure unto the end, 

the same shall be saved.

14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached 

in all the world for a witness unto all nations; 

and then shall the end come.

Matthew 24:24

King James Version

24 For there shall arise false Christs, 

and false prophets, 

and shall shew great signs and wonders; 

insomuch that, if it were possible, 

they shall deceive the very elect.

2 Corinthians 11:13-15

King James Version

13 For such are false apostles, 

deceitful workers, 

transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.

14 And no marvel; for Satan himself 

is transformed into an angel of light.

15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers 

also be transformed 

as the ministers of righteousness; 

whose end shall be according to their works.

Galatians 2:6

King James Version

6 But of these who seemed to be somewhat, 

(whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: 

God accepteth no man's person:) 

for they who seemed to be somewhat in conference 

added nothing to me:

2 Timothy 3:13-14

King James Version

13 But evil men and seducers 

shall wax worse and worse, 

deceiving, and being deceived.

14 But continue thou in the things 

which thou hast learned 

and hast been assured of, 

knowing of whom thou hast learned them;

2 Peter 2 KJV

And then, as if "out of the blue", SPIRIT led me to this VERY telling verse:

Ecclesiastes 3:15

King James Version

15 That which hath been is now; 

and that which is to be hath already been; 

and God requireth that which is past.

Seems, the "NEW" president of the United States has JUST been REVEALED!

But, as SPIRIT taught me early on, we "rightly divided" the verse.

So, we looked through each set of phrases, and the person these were obviously referring to, at this moment in time:

"That which hath been is now;"

Trump was 45th U.S. president; seems he will become 47th.

"and that which is to be hath already been;"

If Trump is to win now, it was because he had already won before.

"and God requireth that which is past."

That feels like GOD will make past-president Trump the 47th.

The clarity of SPIRIT's guidance is in SHARP contrast to what Kamala kept programming us early on:

"What can be unburdened 

by what has been."

Which was the vaguest of vague.

But the HOLY SPIRIT helped me "decode" that.

And today, SPIRIT leads me to that Ecclesiastes 3:15 verse.

That seems to identify the winner of this 2024 U.S. elections.

And I thank SPIRIT for leading me to it today.

Only GOD owns the "which hath been" concept.

Not Kamala, or her Marxist friends.

Because of their schemes, they will be a "has been".

Satan's old tricks are boring.

He's so yesterday.

Nothing could be more exciting than aligning yourself with JESUS.

You have no idea the LORD's power.

You have no idea His promises.

So here ends my journey regarding U.S. politics.

Only because a born again focuses on a different campaign.

A lasting, and winning one.

CITY on 7 hills

 

Revelation 17:9

King James Version

9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. 

The seven heads are seven mountains, 

on which the woman sitteth.

Which city on seven hills is the Book of Revelation referring to?

It's a recent study SPIRIT gave me to look into.

With the way the world is turning out, I know it's mighty important.

Further, if it was not important, it would not have been ONE whole chapter.

To better understand this prophecy, let's look into that chapter:

Revelation 17

King James Version

17 And there came one of the seven angels 

which had the seven vials, 

and talked with me, saying unto me, 

Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment 

of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:

2 With whom the kings of the earth 

have committed fornication, 

and the inhabitants of the earth 

have been made drunk 

with the wine of her fornication.

3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: 

and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, 

full of names of blasphemy, 

having seven heads and ten horns.

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:

5 And upon her forehead was a name written, 

Mystery, Babylon The Great, 

The Mother Of Harlots 

And Abominations Of The Earth.

6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, 

and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: 

and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.

7 And the angel said unto me, 

Wherefore didst thou marvel? 

I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, 

and of the beast that carrieth her, 

which hath the seven heads and ten horns.

8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; 

and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, 

and go into perdition: 

and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, 

whose names were not written in the book of life 

from the foundation of the world, 

when they behold the beast that was, 

and is not, and yet is.

9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. 

The seven heads are seven mountains, 

on which the woman sitteth.

10 And there are seven kings: 

five are fallen, and one is, 

and the other is not yet come; 

and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.

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.

14 These shall make war with the Lamb, 

and the Lamb shall overcome them: 

for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: 

and they that are with him are called, 

and chosen, and faithful.

15 And he saith unto me, 

The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, 

are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, 

these shall hate the whore, 

and shall make her desolate and naked, 

and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.

17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, 

and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, 

until the words of God shall be fulfilled.

18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, 

which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

Rome is the city the Bible refers to.

Istanbul is trying to get into the scene, too.

I also noticed more CITIES on SEVEN hills.

I just follow where SPIRIT leads me.

For now, I present to you my initial findings.

Curiously, an article came up today.

As if to assist me in my writing.

It's a "curious" article, for what is an aviation blog doing looking into "The Seven Mountains and Seven Heads"?

What does an aviation site have to do with the Book of Revelation?

Curious, indeed.

Expect another post to dig deeper into these findings.

Today, this post merely serves as framework.

There is much work to do, and I'm on it.

Why?

We are in the end times.

The Rapture is imminent.

It's all preparation now.

Where do you stand?

Are you FOR, or against GOD?

That's really the bottomline.

That dictates the personal future you will have.

OPERATIVE WORDS for the END TIMES

 Mark 13:32

King James Version

32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, 

not the angels which are in heaven, 

neither the Son, 

but the Father.

I'm a simple student of Bible prophecy.

The HOLY SPIRIT alerted me to operative words we need to pay attention to, as we near the end times.

WATCH.

Mark 13:35

King James Version

35 Watch ye therefore: 

for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, 

at even, 

or at midnight, 

or at the cockcrowing, 

or in the morning:

Mark 13:37

King James Version

37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, 

Watch.

WATCH and PRAY.

Mark 13:33

King James Version

33 Take ye heed, 

watch and pray: 

for ye know not when the time is.

REPENT; BELIEVE the GOSPEL.

Mark 1:15

King James Version

15 And saying, 

The time is fulfilled, 

and the kingdom of God is at hand: 

repent ye, 

and believe the gospel.

BE BORN AGAIN.

John 3:5-7

King James Version

5 Jesus answered, 

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, 

Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, 

he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; 

and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, 

Ye must be born again.

LOOK UP; LIFT your HEADS.

Luke 21:27-28

King James Version

27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming 

in a cloud with power and great glory.

28 And when these things begin to come to pass, 

then look up, 

and lift up your heads; 

for your redemption draweth nigh.

FOCUS on JESUS.

Colossians 3:1-2

King James Version

3 If ye then be risen with Christ, 

seek those things which are above, 

where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

2 Set your affection on things above, 

not on things on the earth.

BE HOLY.

Leviticus 19:1-2

King James Version

19 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

2 Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, 

and say unto them, 

Ye shall be holy: 

for I the Lord your God am holy.

BE PERFECT.

Matthew 5:48

King James Version

48 Be ye therefore perfect, 

even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

BE BLAMELESS.

1 Thessalonians 5:23

King James Version

23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; 

and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body 

be preserved blameless 

unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

KEEP God's COMMANDMENTS.

John 14:15

King James Version

15 If ye love me, 

keep my commandments.

WALK in the SPIRIT.

Galatians 5:16

King James Version

16 This I say then, 

Walk in the Spirit, 

and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

DENY yourself; TAKE up your CROSS daily; FOLLOW Jesus.

Luke 9:23

King James Version

23 And he said to them all, 

If any man will come after me, 

let him deny himself, 

and take up his cross daily, 

and follow me.

WAKE UP; CAST OFF the works of darkness; PUT ON the armor of light.

Romans 13:11-12

King James Version

11 And that, 

knowing the time, 

that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: 

for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.

12 The night is far spent, 

the day is at hand: 

let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, 

and let us put on the armour of light.

WORSHIP GOD.

Revelation 19:10 

King James Version

10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. 

And he said unto me, 

See thou do it not: 

I am thy fellowservant, 

and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: 

worship God: 

for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

God Seems To Like The Work I Do

Colossians 1:28

King James Version

28 Whom we preach, 

warning every man, 

and teaching every man in all wisdom; 

that we may present every man 

perfect in Christ Jesus:

Funny, that was the verse that showed up today, as I edited an article I had not shared with anyone, until today.

That verse PRECISELY reflects the focus of that article -- on Jesus' LAST instructions to His apostles, after His resurrection: 

Luke 24:47

King James Version

47 And that repentance and remission of sins 

should be preached in his name among all nations, 

beginning at Jerusalem.

And all because, the Holy SPIRIT led me to click the Bible Gateway link today, making me curious, to see the "Verse of the Day", just in case God had a "surprise" for me.

Of course, He did.

That seems to be how things are happening for me now.

And getting pretty often, too!

I write an article, I give credit to Bible Gateway, and if I check the "Verse of the Day", it often echoes the VERY subject of my article.

It's not weird.

It's beautiful!

It's magnificent!

It's GOD!

All I do is allow the Holy SPIRIT to guide me.

We write together, and beautiful things happen.

It may reach you.

It may touch your heart.

It may even anger you.

But I leave everything to the LORD God.

I write, because God created me to write.

I write, because there's so MUCH to write about God.

I write, because there's a deep urgency to share God's WORD with you.

I write, because I'm a follower of Jesus.

I write, because the Holy SPIRIT's teaching me many wonderful things.

I write, because I am a warrior for God.

And, in the process, God rewards my trusting and obedient heart, with little surprises that tickle my soul.

Then I know, God appreciates my little efforts.

I also write, to remind myself of the important verses the Holy SPIRIT leads me to.

It's as much for you, as it is for me.

If you have a child-like heart, you can identify with what I'm sharing.

Your heart will be as tickled, knowing God's paying attention, and blessing us for our faithfulness -- and yes, for our undivided attention.

I will forever be a child in my heart and I know God likes what I'm doing, writing about the TRIUNE God.

But why did I get into Bible Prophecy, the most complicated part of Scripture?

GOD saw my heart was finally open to JESUS, and sent the Holy SPIRIT to instruct me.

I got close to Jesus, because of those two videos on America.

I "heard" the "call".

After that, and instantly, I decided to become a born-again Christian on the same day.

There was no question -- it had to be Bible PROPHECY.

The world has gone completely astray, despite the many warnings sent out by many prophets, and primarily JESUS.

I felt the urgency.

So, I started reading the Bible, taking down notes, and the articles "formed".

It was the work of the Holy SPIRIT in me, teaching me, coaxing me, prompting me.

God knew what I had in me.

The only thing He waited for, was my complete surrender to Him.

And that's when He sent the Holy SPIRIT to instruct me.

How do I know it's from the Holy SPIRIT?

How can it not?

All I write about is GOD.

He is the MOST beautiful FOCUS of all!


Verses from biblegateway.com

I Knew 2020 Was Going to Be Something

JESUS told His apostles:

Matthew 13:11

King James Version

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.

Perhaps, I have a thing about numbers. 

Or, perhaps, it's just plain common sense.

First thing that came to mind about 2020?

Visual acuity.

Would my inner vision be clearer?

What would the world bring in 2020?

Those were my questions in the fall of 2019.

I just knew something would be different for the next year.

What, I didn't know what. 

But something significant happened to me in September, a day before my birthday. 

GOD made me born again.

I had become a changed person.

The events that led to that came from two videos on America, which completely changed my life.

Of how, America was a nation "begging for destruction", for it had parted ways with God.

The warning was sounded, and I, an Asian, somehow "heard" it, even as the videos were created sometime back.

Then I started reading the Bible, from Genesis, to the Four Gospels, to Revelation.

I was particularly drawn to Bible Prophecy, which led to the blog you're on now.

There was a very clear progression to things.

I wanted to know the WORDS of Jesus, JUST as He said them.

I felt I was being "alerted" to something, based on those videos. 

I filled lots of notebooks, and loose sheets, with verses that called to my soul.

Surely, the HOLY SPIRIT took pity upon this soul, hungering for CHRIST.

Then, I started writing the books.

And that was the time the covid crisis was brewing.

But what do I know?

I was tasked to write, not focus on the world.

As the world partied, I was cooped up writing, trying to learn more about Jesus.

The books came non-stop -- all 22 of them, in 36 days.

I knew I could write.

I knew I wrote fast.

But not this much.

Not this fast.

And not this intensely.

And without tiring.

I have to tell you that's how SPIRIT will fuel you, if you are really His.

Of course, God worked with what I had in my heart.

He made sure I had those dreams from decades ago.

He also made sure the time to de-code those dreams would come -- at His own choosing.

So, I dreamt, and worked, hoping to know ALL of God's TRUTH alone.

It was my most fervent desire.

I bugged Him, night and day.

And when He surfaced, I'm glad I was ready.

I wrote, from all the "prompts" and "inspiration", following each lead, every moment -- always backed by SCRIPTURE -- the WORD of GOD.

Then 2020 came, the covid crisis blew, and I knew God was on to something.

Everything is for a purpose, for a reason only known to God, though I honestly felt that those who don't love God, will reveal more of themselves, and their ways.

It's time they came out of hiding.

It's time they were revealed in plain sight.

True enough, if you are to go by the endless news and posts on social media and digital media, you'd see there would be truth in that.

Those who love you, are there for you.

Those who love GOD, and are true followers of JESUS, will become more of that.

Those who only care to enrich themselves, at the expense of others, are there, too.

Those who have had agendas for the longest time, can't wait to put everything in full force now.

Those who are confused, get even more confused.

Those who are angry, found a cause to espouse.

Only thing, others who have other agendas, found those causes handy, too, and piggy-backed on it.

Until finally, those people's cause got diluted, corrupted, and they deviate from the original purpose of their cause -- only because other people with different agendas got in on it, too.

And yes, the latter had the purse strings.

Who can you trust these days?

Only GOD.

Most still doesn't see that the only one with PERFECT vision is God.

He sees what we don't.

He knows what we don't.

Why is He not saying anything?

It's because JESUS will bring things to LIGHT.

Jesus, is the LIGHT of the world, after all.

Find your strength in Him.

Our peace lies in Him alone.

Your best friend these days will be the HOLY SPIRIT of GOD -- the One who will teach you, comfort you, and strengthen you.

The Holy SPIRIT's time has come.

We have to make way for the Spirit.

Our vision is limited.

God's isn't.

The CREATOR is in charge.

People wish they were, and that's were the problems began.

Instigated by the fallen one, of course.

And now, it's time to take off our muddied glasses, have God dissolve our spiritual cataracts, and see through the eyes of the Holy SPIRIT.

We had been blind too long.

It is Wonderful Being a Born Again Christian

There was a man of the Pharisees, 

named Nicodemus, 

a ruler of the Jews:

2 The same came to Jesus by night, 

and said unto him, 

Rabbi, 

we know that thou art a teacher come from God: 

for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, 

except God be with him.

3 Jesus answered and said unto him, 

Verily, verily, 

I say unto thee, 

Except a man be born again, 

he cannot see the kingdom of God.

4 Nicodemus saith unto him, 

How can a man be born when he is old? 

can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, 

and be born?

5 Jesus answered, 

Verily, verily, 

I say unto thee, 

Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, 

he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; 

and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, 

Ye must be born again.

8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, 

and thou hearest the sound thereof, 

but canst not tell whence it cometh, 

and whither it goeth: 

so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

John 3:1-8 

King James Version

What are your thoughts about being born again?

How do you feel about born-again Christians?

Would you like to know how it feels to be an independent one?

Huh, is there such a thing? 

Yes, there is, for I chose to follow Jesus, at my own level of preparedness last year.

I cannot join the LORD, and claim to be His, unless I felt authentic within myself.

For the longest time, a few of my acquaintances, even in the late 80s were trying to convert me.

They almost succeeded, but when I saw how they conducted themselves, I began to be doubtful.

And God, knowing how I am, for He created me, knew that I was going to be His, at a time of both our own choosing.

"And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, 

choose you this day whom ye will serve; 

whether the gods which your fathers served 

that were on the other side of the flood, 

or the gods of the Amorites, 

in whose land ye dwell: 

but as for me and my house, 

we will serve the Lord."

Joshua 24:15 (KJV)

He let me carry on with life, the best and worst way I knew how, and then a day before my last birthday, He knew I was ready for His Son.

The only one who could convert me was God Himself.

He knew I wanted His TRUTH alone.

He knew I searched, long and hard, for His TRUTH alone.

He knew I didn't quite trust man, for we are all fallible, plus we all vacillate between seeming truths, and half-truths.

He knew I'd been praying for the longest time to be shown His TRUTH.

And then, one day, it happened.

He led me to two life-changing videos about America that's falling apart, and selling its soul to the devil.

He knew that would wake up my spirit, to receive His SPIRIT, the Holy Spirit.

He knew that on this latest birthday of mine, I dearly needed to be shown, and taught -- only by Him.

That was exactly what God was waiting for.

After receiving Christ quietly in my heart, no bells and whistles, no formal baptism and all that, I began to receive instruction, and my understanding and writing, blossomed.

It's been over eight months now, and the articles and books keep flowing.

Whenever I'm tired or unsure, I merely pray to Jesus, to please lead the way, and let it only be HIS way.

I set aside self, and let God:

"He must increase, 

but I must decrease."

John 3:30 (KJV)

Now, ALL instruction must come from the Holy Spirit alone, for I am a tainted human being.

"John answered and said, 

A man can receive nothing, 

except it be given him from heaven."

John 3:27 (KJV)

Even being a born-again Christian has its many challenges, maybe even more challenges, because your beliefs will be challenged by many.

You will be mocked, and reviled.

The lords of the earth will pounce upon you, for you have become God's Own.

Jesus did say:

18 If the world hate you, 

ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

19 If ye were of the world, 

the world would love his own: 

but because ye are not of the world, 

but I have chosen you out of the world, 

therefore the world hateth you.

20 Remember the word that I said unto you, 

The servant is not greater than his lord. 

If they have persecuted me, 

they will also persecute you; 

if they have kept my saying, 

they will keep yours also.

John 15:18-20 (KJV)

If you are ready to face all that, and to allow only the Holy Spirit of God to teach you, and self is completely set aside, then you are ready to follow Jesus as a true born-again Christian.

Humans love new things, trends, and they form organizations and cliques about it.

I've never really joined any club, now or ever -- what more with matters of God?

For myself, I became a born-again Christian in the simplest manner.

One day, I just knew.

One day, I wanted to follow Christ.

I became more of the child that I already am, but this time, I became even happier, as I hold Jesus' hand each day, and I skip, and hop, by His side, and He looks at me in great amusement.

He knows I dearly wish to know EVERYTHING about Him, and that only He can teach me best.

I am not elitist, but I am precise.

With matters of the soul, and actually most everything else, I wish to be precise.

One wrong thought, or move, and I endanger myself, and others.

I must know ALL about Jesus, before I can share my knowledge with you.

Well, I began reading the Bible -- especially Genesis, the four Gospels, and the Book of Revelation -- in September of last year.

With that reading, came greater understanding.

I allowed the Holy Spirit to teach me, for every man has a different understanding or version of what he may read.

Only by the GRACE of God, and through His Holy Spirit, can we be taught accurately.

I only wanted DIRECT instruction from God.

I think, if you really want to learn about God, you must declare that -- to learn ONLY from God -- directly.

You have to be precise, and particular, because He is.

And I think God likes that.

After all, it is His TRUTH we are talking about.

When you begin to know God's TRUTH, nothing else matters anymore.

More importantly, you begin to see truth, like who God Really Is, Who Jesus Really Is, who the Holy Spirit Is, who we really are, and why the world is the way it is, since God first created us in the Book of Genesis.

Jesus gave us the Holy Spirit to teach us everything:

"But the Comforter, 

which is the Holy Ghost, 

whom the Father will send in my name, 

he shall teach you all things, 

and bring all things to your remembrance, 

whatsoever I have said unto you."

John 14:26 (KJV)

I am not here to convince you to become a born-again Christian.

Quite a few tried doing that to me.

Only the Holy Spirit of God can "convert" you, when you're good and ready, and perhaps, it may be at the lowest moment in your life, when your heart really seeks THE answers to EVERYTHING.

I am only here to write my own testimony, of how the Spirit of God touched my heart, clarified things through SCRIPTURE, how he had Joseph, a dear friend of mine, coach me about Scripture, and of how Jesus took pity upon my fallen soul, and started instructing me, in EXACTLY the way I desired to be instructed -- by HIM alone.

I am not elitist like the other Christians who tried to convert me.

I have no clique, no club, never had.

I belong to God alone.

P.S. Perhaps, you're wondering why I used an endearing Asian baby -- maybe even a Chinese baby -- as an image for my post? My belief is that we are all children of God, Chinese, Filipino, American, or any race you may be. May the Chinese see that we are also their brothers, and sisters, desiring the freedom God gave all of us, and subject to no man, religion, or race's domination. We forget that, thus, problems ensue. Look beyond race. Of course, when you become God's Own, you will begin to see. I dearly invite you to allow God to help you see, as He has helped me see, until all I could see was GOD.
