What Percentage of Israel is Christian?

July 16, 2017 By sonserver 1 Comment

Christians currently make up just 2% of Israel’s adult population.

So this is rather significant when considering the Rapture…Israel will hardly be affected should 1% or 2% of it's population be caught up to heaven. Numbers wise, this would be somewhere around 80,000 to 150,000 people total.

In comparision, according to a 2014 study by the Pew Research Center, 3% of the adult population of the United States identified themselves as Jewish, 70.6% of the adult population of the United States identified themselves as Christians, with 46.5% professing attendance at a variety of churches that could be considered Protestant, and 20.8% professing Roman Catholic beliefs.

Even if only 1/2 of those who identify as themselves as Christians are caught up to heaven, that would be 35% of the entire population of the United States, or over 100 million people. The country would essentially cease to exist and would instantly transform from a land of law and order to disorder, or chaos or anarchy.

Think about it.

Sun, Moon and Stars in the Bible

July 2, 2017 By sonserver Leave a Comment

Isn't it interesting that God mentions the Sun, the Moon and the Stars in the same order as signs throught the Bible, from beginning to end, from Genesis to Revelation? God is the Alpha and the Omega, the Aleph and the Tav, the Beginning and the End. If you're not watching for signs that involve the sun, moon and stars, what are you watching for?

And God said, “Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years, and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.” And it was so. God made two great lights—the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars. God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day.

— Genesis 1:14 (NIV)

And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars;

— Luke 21:25 (NKJV)

And there appeared a great sign in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

— Revelation 12:1

Psalm 81 associates the blowing of a trumpet or shofar with an appointed time that could only be Yom Teruah (Feast of Trumpets) also known as Yom HaKeseh ( The Hidden Day) since it is the only 'feast day' or 'holy festival' which begins on the first of the month, being dependent on the sighting of the new moon.

Blow the shofar in the new moon in the time appointed on our solemn feast day. ( *kece : full moon or appointed time)
— Psalm 81:3

Another biblical reference to the moon being used to set the calendar for the 'appointed times' is found in Psalm 104.

He appointed the moon for seasons; ( mow'ed)

— Psalm 104:19

* another name for Feast of Trumpets or Yom Teruah is Yom HaKeseh, “The Day of the Hiding” or “the Hidden Day.” The term keseh or keceh is derived from the Hebrew root kacah, which means to “conceal, cover, or hide.”

The Barren Island volcano, India’s only live volcano, is once again active, scientists working for the National Institute of Oceanography who witnessed the volcanic activity in January said. The Barren Island volcano, located 140 km [about 87 miles] Northeast of Port Blair, dormant for more than 150 years started erupting in 1991 and has since then shown intermittent activity," CSIR-NIO said in a statement on Monday. "The volcano was erupting in small episodes lasting about 5 to 10 minutes. During the daytime only ash clouds were observed. However after sundown, the team observed red lava fountains spewing from the crater into the atmosphere and hot lava flows streaming down the slopes of the volcano." "The volcanic island is uninhabited and the northern part of the island is, as the name suggests, barren and devoid of vegetation," CSIR-NIO said. A 6 km (20 000 feet) high ash plume drifting 120 nautical miles to the southwest was reported last night.

Supervolcano ‘worse than Vesuvius’ that could kill MILLIONS across Europe ‘ready to blow’

Quite the sensational headline, isn't it? Ordinary, everyday newspapers know how hard it is to get people's attention. The truth is, such an eruption could happen, not just in Italy, but elsewhere too.

What Should We do while We wait for the Return of Jesus?

January 7, 2017 By sonserver Leave a Comment

“Dear God in Heaven, please help me to live my life in such a way that it is pleasing to you. Please consider me worthy to escape the time that is coming to test this world. In the name of Jesus, my Lord, I pray. Amen.”

Keep God’s Word, don’t just read it, that is be Hearers & Doers of the Word.
Walk in the Light, separate yourself from the world.
Please God by the way you live.
Witness to others, like Enoch who was raptured, tell people “the Lord is coming”
Love the sinner but hate the sin
Persevere, look forward, don’t turn back to the life you’ve left.
Be Humble
Be Holy
Be Blameless, make every effort to stay blameless and pure.
Be Watchful for the return of the Lord.
Pray always

Tsunami

The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly. The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again. (Isa 24:19-20)
