The Old Man Is Snoring :: By Rick Segoine

Millions and millions of people seem to be sound asleep. Sawing logs, collecting some zzz’s, and counting sheep.

Most realize there are seriously bad things happening in the world, but if we just ignore it all, maybe it will just go away.

Unfortunately, evil doesn’t just go away. On the contrary, it doubles down, increases in aggressiveness, and, whenever possible, stomps on you when you are down.

Watchmen on the wall who study Bible prophecy try to warn the sleepers about the times we are living in, only to have to contend with this frequent reaction:

“You are a conspiracy theorist wearing a giant tinfoil hat.”

Not only that, you are a pesky pessimist, a party pooper, and a doomsday prophet. Now please go away. Can’t you understand I have plans for the future, and I am trying to live my best life now?

I am old enough to remember when life in America was pretty normal. When I was young, about the worst thing a parent had to worry about was Eddie Haskell talking your kid into sneaking in the side door of the local movie theater on a Saturday afternoon.

The Eddie Haskell’s of 2023 make the original Eddie Haskell look like an angelic choirboy.

Those days are long gone. The desire for them to return, however, is hard for people to let go of.

Jesus made it a point to let those who are watching know that in the end times, it would be this way (2 Peter 3:4).

The common thread for those of us who are watching, as Jesus said to do, is attempting to alert people who are not watching to what is going on in the world according to the word of God and to the future He has revealed with great precision through Bible prophecy.

Like in the days of Noah, this is how Jesus said it would be. People were eating, drinking, marrying, and giving in marriage. They did these and other regular activities right up until the day that the rains came and flooded the earth (Matthew 24:37-39).

In other words, doing things people ordinarily do. All of the above activities as well as things like going to work, shopping, taking in a ball game or a concert, a relaxing day at the beach, or any number of things people spend their time doing.

So, what percentage of “normal” average people want to listen to a watchman tell them about the evil globalists? Or, to tell them about how far along those treacherous Luciferians are in their plans to depopulate the earth.

Or, to hear about these bent ones and their goals to either reeducate, ruin, enslave, or murder every last one of us regular folks. Or, about how what they are doing coincides perfectly with end-times Bible prophecy.

How many decent normal people want to even believe that anyone could be so evil as to do such things?

The multi-billionaire globalist elite cultists have revealed themselves to be experts in a number of things. Things that are only possible because of the billions and perhaps trillions of dollars at their disposal. Things that they have been planning to do for a very long time. Things such as the following:

Hiring or coercing scientists into creating and dispensing pandemics, also known as plandemics and scamdemics.

Buying up controlling interests in over 84% of major and international corporations so far. They want all of it.

Buying off politicians worldwide and using them like puppets.

Owning and controlling Big Pharma and hospitals, then using medical tyranny as a type of war machine.

Destroying economies.

Heartlessly ruining the lives of millions of decent people through mandates and shutdowns and any other way they can devise.

The attempted destruction of freedom, joy and happiness, and replacing it with fear and obedience to them, the would-be totalitarian masters of planet Earth.

Buying up most of the media and news outlets and hiring activists/mercenaries who use not guns but pens and voices to disseminate propaganda in the form of misinformation and out-and-out lies 24/7. Then, accusing any and all who oppose them with truth as being the ones who spread disinformation.

The attempted assassination of freedom of speech.

The soon-to-be attempt through legislation to shut down all internet sites that shed light on their false narratives.

Promoting the most depraved lifestyles imaginable while persecuting and slandering anyone who speaks against this.

Promoting gender confusion and mutilation to young children.

Erasing history and re-writing it.

The attempt to create their own version of an Orwellian dystopian nightmare upon the entire population of planet Earth.

Seeing evil as good and good as evil and insisting that everyone do the same or risk being incarcerated or executed.

Infiltrating governments and large corporations with their trained shills, most of whom are trained by the WEF.

Coming up with an astonishing number of ways to kill, maim, and control their fellow human beings.

Deliberately including ingredients in the clot shot that cause sterility, infertility, and death, not to mention the many other harms that this so-called vaccine can produce, such as heart issues and destroying the immune system so as to speed along their quest to depopulate the earth to one half billion people by the year 2030.

Buying up massive amounts of farmland to control food sources and distribution.

The burning down of many food processing plants and the derailment of trains carrying highly toxic materials.

Transforming leftist cities into drug-infested homeless camps where lawlessness is the new normal.

Having as a goal the elimination of all reference to the moral absolutes of the Holy Bible from the face of the earth and making said references a hate crime.

Replacing the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit with gods of their own making. Themselves.

Being fully committed to satanically inspired self-righteousness and hypocrisy on a level that is truly staggering.

The godless, morally bankrupt, demon-possessed, Lucifer-worshipping globalist elite, aka the Reprobate Multi-Billionaires Club, are evil beyond the wildest imagination or ability to comprehend for the average person.

As deceased comedian George Carlin emphasized in a monologue, “They have a club, and you are not in it,” and “They don’t care about you at all, at all, At All.” Whatever one may think about Mr. Carlin, he was right-on about the elite.

A person or a group of persons who happen to be multi-billionaires would certainly be capable of doing enormous amounts of good in the world, you would think. But no; instead, they choose to do enormous amounts of evil, all the while claiming to be and portrayed to be philanthropists.

Remember the Blue Meanies in the cartoon movie called “The Yellow Submarine.” They killed the music, sucked the fun out of life, turned everything from color to black and white, and bonked every decent Pepperland resident with a giant glove that turned them all to stone. Well, the globalist elites of today are a lot like those Blue Meanies but on massive amounts of steroids.

In the movie, the cartoon Beatles saved the day and reversed what the Blue Meanies had done by singing “All You Need is Love.” Unfortunately, that is not going to work with the real Blue Meanies, aka the New World Order Globalists.

It is going to take the supernatural power of God Almighty, as revealed by Jesus to John in the Book of Revelation.

According to that book, which the apostle John received personally from Jesus, there will be a massive population reduction. However, it won’t be so the globalist elites can claim the earth for themselves without all of us useless eaters around to take what they believe belongs to them.

Sleepers can ignore what is taking place if they wish to, but it won’t change a thing in regard to the fulfillment of Bible prophecy any more than it did in the days of Noah.

Jesus foresaw and warned future generations about all of these things. He told us what to look for in order to identify the times and seasons. See Matthew 24, Luke 21, Mark 13, and Revelation.

He told us what godless people in the end times would be like in general (2 Timothy 3:1-4) as well as those particular people who would be doing the work of Satan to create a world government with the antichrist in charge (Matthew 24:24).

Jesus and Paul made it clear that these evil ones would get worse and worse as wickedness consumed them and as the father of lies realized that his time was short (2 Timothy 13:17).

Jesus said that things would get so bad that life on earth in the time of the great tribulation would be worse than it had ever been at any time in history or ever will be.

He said it would be so horrible that were He not to intervene, no one would survive (Mark 13:20).

The old man who is snoring does not want to hear this.

People with worldly hopes and dreams and future plans do not want to hear this.

Believers who think the second coming of Jesus is a long way off in the future do not want to hear this.

People of religions other than biblical Christianity do not want to hear this.

Mostly, the 94% of professing Christians that do not hold a biblical worldview, according to a recent Barna Institute survey, do not want to hear of these things, and that is why so many turn away from sound doctrine (2 Timothy 4:3).

This is why so many turn to teachers and preachers who soothe their itching ears with the worldly things they want to hear.

For anyone wondering what an actual biblical worldview is, in simple terms, it is this: 2 Timothy 3:16 “All Scripture is God-Breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness.”

Believing that All scripture is the inspired Holy Word from God Himself. Not to be added to or subtracted from.

“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places” (Ephesians 6:12).

Exposing all of the evil for what it is and where it leads in regard to the eternal big picture is a job for a watchman, a watchwoman, or anyone who holds a biblical worldview.

This goes hand in hand with encouraging anyone and everyone who has not turned to Jesus Christ the Messiah to do so and to do so sooner, not later.

Time is running out for the unsaved to make the choice, and the choice is simple but has eternal consequences. Choose the free gift of salvation provided through God’s amazing grace and offered to all who accept it by repenting and believing in Him (Mark 1:15).

Become a part of God’s forever family and an heir to all of the wonderful promises that our Heavenly Father has so graciously given to us. Promises such as eternal life in new bodies like or similar to the resurrected body of Jesus. Bodies that do not grow old, that are free of sickness, and are not tempted by sin.

If you haven’t already heard, Jesus loves you so much that He was willing to die a horribly painful death for you. He even said in John 15:13, “Greater love hath no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.”

Choose eternal life over eternal separation from God and everything beautiful.

Rejecting God’s offer of amazing grace means suffering the wrath of God, which will be poured out on the evil-loving, Christ-rejecting inhabitants of this world during the soon-to-come 7-year Tribulation. It will still be possible to repent and turn to Christ during those seven years, but the antichrist and his wicked globalist pals, who help to put him in power, will be looking to hunt down and behead all who refuse the mark of the beast and put their faith in Jesus instead of worshiping the antichrist (Revelation 20:4-6).

By the end of those seven years, when Jesus returns to close the curtain on the satanic madness as well as the wrath of God, about half of the people on earth will have died amid the catastrophic chaos and calamity (Revelation 6:7-8 and 9:15, 18).

Those that died without ever accepting the gift of Salvation will appear at the Great White Throne Judgment.

There, they will receive whatever punishment their particular sins deserve and then begin their eternal separation from God the Creator and all things beautiful. That place of incarceration is known as the Lake of Fire (Revelation 20:11-14).

Whosoever, by refusing to accept the amazing grace offer of Jesus to take the punishment for your sins for you on the cross at Calvary, will by your own free will choice, instead, be accepting God’s perfect righteous judgment upon yourself.

It is not the will of God that any should perish (2 Peter 3:9), and He offered a way so no one would have to. He also gave each of us free will with no strings attached. Anyone who chooses to take upon themselves the righteous judgment of God, along with eternal separation from Him and everything beautiful and good, does so of their own free will.

Good and evil will be separated forever.

The choice is a stark one. An eternity in the lake of fire along with Satan, the antichrist, and his false prophet, everyone that rejected the sacrifice made on their behalf by Jesus Christ, and everyone in all of history who hated God or chose to be their own god, as well as – unless they truly repent – all of the wicked globalist elitists who are right now causing so much misery here on earth just before the Rapture.

Or instead, choose an amazingly beautiful, wonderful, heavenly eternity in the Holy Presence of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, the entire Angelic Host, and a vast Forever Family of Redeemed brothers and sisters from throughout history who love God and love each other, and in a spirit of immense thankfulness.

If you haven’t done so already, please become part of a wonderful future and an amazingly beautiful eternity by accepting Jesus today as your personal Lord and Savior. Trust in Him for your salvation. You will be so very glad you did (Romans 10:9-10).

In the most precious holy name of Jesus,

Rick Segoine

‘Wildly Successful,’ Carnally Speaking :: By Candy Austin

There was a time when we attended a megachurch on and off for several years. Since leaving this apostate place, we feel vindicated in the fact that this church has been publicly called out by other discerning eyes in recent years for having a well-known and prominent woman pastor, who is also a false teacher, come and preach to men and women one Sunday at this church.

Also, even more recently, the ‘progressive, skinny jeans wearing, secular/worldly loving pastor’ has been outed for plagiarizing a message almost word for word from no other than another prominent heretic! When called to the ‘online floor,’ this pastor went onto his platform to unashamedly defend this act as if it was a good thing! Even though the information he was presenting and teaching to his congregation was not only from a known false teacher but one who also blatantly attacks and goes against the Bible! Mortifying, to say the least! *incredulous stare*

1 Corinthians 14:34 “Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.”

Anyhow, a redeeming quality that I can take away from our time there was when we attended this one particular life group. First, let me start off by saying that this megachurch is in one of the richest counties in the state, and most of the congregants there were more or less of the ‘wealthy persuasion,’ if that gives you any idea. So, needless to say, by our being in any life group there, for that matter, we would more than likely be befriending and ‘rubbing elbows’ with some pretty well-to-do people. Anyhow, every month, the life group would plan a get-together for some fellowship, and oftentimes someone would volunteer to open up their home and have everyone bring a covered dish to share and eat and spend time with one another.

Seeing how most of these people lived in multi-million-dollar houses, suffice it to say this one particular couple’s house that we went to was like something out of a magazine! Literally every house on their street radiated opulence, and their home inside had floor-to-ceiling glass walls in the back, allowing you to see the views. And the pool behind their house was nothing short of breathtaking! From the hardwood floors and the matching beams on the ceiling to the huge granite-laid kitchen island and the gorgeous glass-doored entryway, not to mention the white stone fireplace that extended all the way to the ceiling. Just everything about their house was awe-strikingly spectacular!

At this gathering, my husband, in his usual joke-telling fashion, had everyone around us laughing from all of the crazy massage stories and experiences we’ve had over the years. There were several of us laughing for so long and so much in the expressive fervor and vivid description detailed by my husband that some of us were literally crying! Looking back, I’ll never forget the time we had there as we spent such a fun evening with those lovely brothers and sisters in Christ. We even took selfies with some of them at one point, too, at another venue… writing this now makes me miss them.

Anyhow, one Sunday soon after this bonding time, the wife of the couple’s house that we visited volunteered to give her testimony during class time. Basically, it was about how they met, their college years, marriage, having children, and how both of their careers started to take off or, as she described it, became ‘Wildly Successful’! But also during this time, there was a crisis in their marriage, and she detailed how it led them to turn to God to save their marriage and family, all the way to how they are now growing in their faith and here at the church today. It was a beautiful testimony, and this lady was truly a sweetheart, for she prayed over us concerning our heartbreaking situation and would even call up to see how I was doing during the week too.

At one point, I remember telling her that I believe that we are in the last days, and as she seemed silent on the topic, I went on to ask her if she believed that we were in the end times, to which she replied that she didn’t. She said there have been bad times all throughout history and that she didn’t think now was any different. After our phone conversation, I realized that many who live in opulence are in a type of ‘glass bubble,’ so to speak. For when the ‘sun is shining, the sky is blue, the grass is green, and there’s not a cloud in the sky, and when everything is beautiful in your world,’ you’re not going to see, or rather, not want to see the darker sides of life. You’re not going to want to believe that the end is near. After all, you’re ‘wildly successful,’ and life is good… so, why rush it?

Still, this woman was a total sweetheart and precious sister in Christ, but I’m afraid that wealth blinds people in many ways, especially to the ways of God, which are not our ways. For His ways are higher than our ways and His thoughts than our thoughts. What is loved in this world is hated with God, and what is loved with God is hated in this world. Basically, it’s the opposite of what the world says and thinks. Not what we really would like to hear, but at the same time very true.

Proverbs 23:4 “Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom.”

‘Wildly Successful,’ Spiritually Speaking

Speaking of opposites: the meaning of our loved one’s name, who has caused us so much angst and grief in recent years, is ‘Victory of the People.’ Even while being in this wilderness time and low valley experience, I can see how this person is the ‘victory of the people,’ for God never lets a crisis go to waste. The pain that this person’s rebellion has caused was the very catalyst that ignited our faith from being somewhat shallow to now being deep! The suffering only made me press into God further, which in turn produced fruit that I never had before! Just like the crushing of wheat produces grain, or the pressing of grapes brings forth wine, or the pressure on coal turns it into a diamond, such are the effects of our being crushed and ‘spending time in the pressure cooker,’ so to speak!

Proverbs 11:30 “The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.”

In the last several years, I have ordered 100 gospel tracts every other month of each year, and we have put them out non-stop everywhere we have gone ever since! Furthermore, when my husband’s job started having him travel all across the country about 6 years ago, he also brought the ‘salvation packs,’ as I call them, with him and has left countless tracts at airports, restaurants, gas stations, and hotels all over! We always pray that they would reach whom God would have them reach.

So, if you multiply 100 tracts times 6 times a year, that is 600 tracts times the last 8 years, which more or less equals 4,800 tracts! Now let’s imagine only 10% of those salvation packs are ‘truly effective’ at reaching lost souls; that would mean roughly about 480 people in the last 8 years got some sort of ‘seed planting’! But let’s be even more conservative than that and estimate that only 10% out of those truly became ‘born again believers’; that would mean by God’s providence, about 48 more souls will now be ushered into the Kingdom upon leaving this earth! Talk about amazingly and ‘wildly successful’ for God and His Kingdom!

If all our pain and suffering helped to bring about even 48 souls to Christ, and that’s what it had to take to produce such fruit in us, then it was all totally worth it! Our pain and suffering were definitely not wasted! God knew exactly what He would bring about this whole time! Even if it is that out of those 4,800 tracts, only 1 person got ‘truly saved and born again,’ then that would still be considered ‘wildly successful’ in God’s eyes! May we go on to be ‘wildly successful’ in the spiritual things of God by winning souls and bringing them into the Kingdom, gaining more precious brothers and sisters in Christ to spend all of eternity with us there!

So, ‘victory of the people’ was a fitting name for this person, and I’m thankful for all that transpired, no matter what! Thankful that it also purified us and readied us for these last days (that some in their opulence and comfort don’t want to see or believe). More than that, it readies us for the soon-coming rapture and allows us to avoid the subsequent tribulation. I would much rather be in this kind of predicament than any other way! For we know that this is the act of God’s grace, and the whole thing that happened was truly a ‘blessing in disguise,’ spiritually speaking! Nevertheless, what the enemy meant for evil, God meant for good!

Genesis 50:20 “But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.”
