The PropheticAlert.com website provides a Christian based perspective on global events, from a biblical viewpoint.

The world is in turmoil at present and if we are to believe what the Bible says of the events that will come upon the earth in future, things are going to get much, much worse. Jesus also says that the love of many will grow cold in the church. There will be apostasy in the church on a scale never witnessed throughout history as the final events of the end of the age as we know it, will be played out on the world stage to ushes in the Kingdom of God, to be governed by His Son Jesus Christ, to whom all authority, honour and power have been given, by God the Father.

This is not a time for Christians to be playing at Christianity, or thinking that church attendance, and nominal Christianity is going to save us in the times to come. We will all have to have oil in our lamps; each of us has a personal responsibility to ensure that we are walking and living in the power of the Holy Spirit. We cannot save each other - only ourselves. God will judge each person individually for every word, decision and action taken in His name, and to many he will say that he never knew them.

The concept of judgement of all mankind by God in future, should be a wake up call to each of us to ensure that we rid our lives of sin so that we can walk in righteousness and the power of the Holy Spirit living in us. The book of Romans teaches that we as Christians are to be living sacrifices to God; vesells of honour and not dishonour. Our lives do affect the lives of others, for better or for worse. Jesus taught His disciples to say that when they preach the gospel, they are to say 'the kingdom of God is near to you'. This is because the Kingdom of God no longer resides in buildings and temples as it did in the OldTestament. Jesus taught that the Kingdom of God now lives within us and the law of God (which was written on stone tablets), is now written on our heart and conscience.

The purpose of the Holy Spirit living in and through us is to empower us to perform spiritual service, to produce spiritual fruit in our lives, to direct us, to guide us, and to teach us and reveal the truth of God's word to us. Revelation of who God is, and the Kingdom principles that He teaches in the Bible and by the Holy Spirit, are designed to transform our minds, and then our hearts and our actions, value systems, decisions and beliefs.

As degenerate, sinful creatures, we all fall short of the Glory of God our Creator and Saviour. No one is righteousnes in themselves. In fact, even our most (self) righteousness offering to God is like a filthy rag in His sight. The only righteousness that counts for anything is the righteousness of Jesus Christ. He paid the price for the sin of mankind. He is our HIgh Priste that continually makes intercession for us before God the Father, as an advocate, a solicitor, pleading our innocence before a mighty and powerful judge. We al stand accused and domed by the death penalty that sin brings. The bible says that we are born as sinners and therefore are all under penalty of death and eternal seperation from God. We are doomed to a Christless and Godless eternity. We are destined for hell - a place created for all sinners, to burn forever in the lake of fire. God has planned and created a place of eternal torment where there is no relief day or night, for those who rebel against him.

It is not God's will that we should perish. It is His will that we should have life. But God knows that as created beings, we are not capable of having life that is from the spirit (of God). This is why Jesus was sent to earth by God, to present himself as a living and willing sacrifice, to pay the penalty for the sins of men, so that we could be declared 'forgiven' by God and reconciled to Him as our heavenly father.

John 3:16 ' For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, that whoseover believes in him, will not perish but have eternal life'.

The bible also teaches that salvation is a free gift. There is nothing that we can do to merit God's favour. The only way back to God the father, is to accept the free offering He has provided for the sins of a lost and dooomed creation, and to believe on the name of Jesus; that He is The Way, The Truth, and The Life. Jesus himself said that He has come to give us an abundant life (of the spirit), and that there is much moe to life than the clothes we wear, the food we eat, what we buy, the work we do and so on. True life, comes from God. It regenerates us, revives us, removes the deceptive scales of sin from our eyes so that we can clearly see the life and truth of God.

God is love; God is Life - abundant life; He is the author and founder of all life in the heavens and the earth. As our Creator; he understands exactly what we need to live a full life. He also knows how to fix us and regenerate our spirits that have been damaged by the destructive power of sin. The wages of sin is death. The bible speaks of a second death - a death after our physical bodies have died on the earth. This is a spiritual death that has eternal consequences. Our spirit man does not actually die when our bodies die. We will live forever, but the choices we have made in this life will determine where we spend eternity.

It is my prayer for you today that you inherit eternal life. Inheritance is a free gift that is not deserved. Jesus left us an eternal inheritance by willingly giving His life to be broken and destroyed, as a final atonement (offering) for the sin of mankind, and to pay a price that was acceptable to God. You have the choice today to decide whether you will live for yourself, or believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and come into your spiritual inheritance for eternity. The choice of life or death lies before you today. It is God's will that you choose life (Deuteronomy 28).

May God bless you as you make the right decision today.
