Wealth and Fear :: By Jim Towers

I’ve come to believe that there are really very few patriots left in government. President Trump seems to be the exception. With all the money he’ll ever need, he has no reason to appease anyone or to be bribed with filthy lucre. He’s just the right person to be in charge of the government and it’s my understanding that he is only accepting one dollar a year for serving our country.

I have a distinct feeling that Obama walked away with millions stashed away in secret overseas bank accounts. Millions have disappeared from various governmental agencies with the collapse of the DNC. All too many politicians are only in it for all the money and power they can muster, not to mention the other benefits and perks.

Like Jesus said, “The love of money is the root of all evil.”

As prophetic events increase in volume and intensity I can’t help but feel a sense of urgency in getting the word out. Jesus is coming back soon; first to take His bride away, then to return seven years later to bring judgment. People are becoming fearful, even if they have plenty of money.

I met an elderly lady named Nancy at the Verizon store. She was seated within a circle of a half dozen easy chairs. I signed in to wait my turn for assistance, then sat down next to Nancy. A conversation ensued. She handed me her cell phone and asked me if I knew how to turn on the sound. It was one of the best Verizon has to offer. Mine is just a working man’s model.

After looking at it and trying a couple of things I had to give it back and tell her I was sorry, but it was a mystery to me. Then she began to tell me how she had to figure everything out on her own since her husband had become bedridden with an illness. Then she went on to say that all her friends had abandoned her because of it.

Now she couldn’t go golfing with them anymore or even go out to lunch as they had so often done. Although she is very wealthy, she is afraid, alone and unable to sleep. She told me how she and her husband had owned several businesses and houses and had a thriving portfolio. “With all that’s going on in the world today we might end up losing it all,” she whimpered.

I looked her straight in the eye and said, “This appears to me to be a divine appointment.”

“Divine appointment?” she asked.

“God had me be here at this very hour to minister to you,” I replied. Then I began to explain how she needed the Prince of Peace (Christ Jesus) in her life to give her the much needed rest she so desperately needed. Her eyes lit up with hope as I told her about my relationship with Him and how after receiving Christ I had been able to sleep like a baby.

I asked what church she attends and she replied, “I haven’t gone to church since I was a teen. Today I go to a support group that only makes me all the more despondent.” I could sense her despair. I invited her to my church and then took her hand, which she readily offered.

It was as if she was reaching out to anything that offered hope. Then, after asking her name, I began to pray for her—oblivious to the activity surrounding us. The prayer was short and to the point; that God would give her rest and that she would seek His face. She sighed as I finished and just then her name was called.

I came to realize that all the money in the world can’t buy happiness or contentment. If anything, it only makes losing it all a scary prospect, just like Jesus said in the following parable:

“And the rich man said to himself, ‘this is what I will do: I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones and there I will store up my grains and goods. Then I will say to myself, ‘You have many good things laid up for many years. Take it easy. Eat drink and be merry.’ And the Lord said, ‘You fool, tonight you will die, then who will inherit your wealth?’”

The amazing thing is that so many preachers and televangelists are living that very parable! And they of all people should know better. Many are millionaires or even multimillionaires are living extravagantly, while many in their flock are barely getting by. Yet these crooked people who should be fearful about the signs of the times, along with the rest, live lives of luxury and eat high on the hog, while never showing any signs of fearing the accountability and retribution from Almighty God.

What do you think they will have to say to God about their accumulated wealth and gluttony? I wouldn’t want to be in their shoes. We all know what He has to say to those who do not belong to Him, “Depart from me for I never knew you.”

Nothing much to say about movies except that you should know that movies, like anything else, are made for monetary gain. Most of the time the story line doesn’t matter, be it redemptive, artsy or a thriller. The bottom line is this: Will it make money?

Pure Flix keeps churning out Christian movies, but nothing about the signs of the times. Maybe they expect to be churning movies out for the next millennium or two. They certainly don’t seem to believe in prophecy and the nearness of the Rapture.

Could making money be their motive? I don’t think so, since the last one of their movies I saw had only about fifty people in attendance. Seems no one is interested in syrupy and unpertinent Christian movies—except Christians.

Imminent War? :: By Jim Towers

Dateline: April 12-13, 2017

Christians know that Daniel prophesied that war was going to happen in the Last Days. Jesus also said that there would be wars and rumors of war. To the skeptic I would say these prophecies coupled with many other prophesied events happening everywhere and increasing in intensity is convincing enough for me.

Today, our president called out president Assad of Syria, for using chemical weaponry on his own people, including children. Russia and Iran (Gog and Magog?) who are friends of Assad are angered. North Korea continues building ballistic missiles and testing them. We’ve sent warships to North Korea and negotiated with China to keep Kim Jong Un from inciting war through nuclear arms production. War ships are on the way there and China is threatening to bomb their nuclear bunkers as well. War and rumors of war abound.

The U.S. Embassy may be moving to Jerusalem. Isis, with help from Iran, is advancing on Israel, while some in Israel are intent on building the third and final temple. They have trained all the temple priests, made the sacrificial implements and are breeding the red heifers for sacrifice. All systems are go.

All around the world people are using their smart phones to videotape strange sightings and sounds in the skies. Witches and would be witches are springing up everywhere, some trying to put a hex/curse on our president. Homosexuals and transvestites rule the day, with other weirdoes backing them up. Black lives matter – cops lives don’t.

Isis is terrifying the world and seems to be unstoppable. Outside the church walls unbelievers are going mad, becoming paranoid and committing suicide because of fear of what’s coming upon the world.

I recently had to deal with a new Facebook “friend” who is showing signs of paranoia. Her post began with the big block words, “PEOPLE ARE EVIL.”  I didn’t know what she was referring to with that extreme statement. So I wrote back, “Yes Peggy, we are all sinners, but ‘There is none righteous, no not one, for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God….But God has laid upon Him (Jesus) the iniquity of us all.’”

She responded with incoherent blather, finishing with, “Who are you to judge, Mr. Towers?!” Needless to say, I was astonished and I wrote back saying, “I was only agreeing with you, Peggy.”  Instantly she wrote back. “Well I’m staying inside and locking the door!”  My final comment was, “I’ll be praying for you, Peggy.” Her words were words indicative of paranoia.

Pedophilia is on the rise. Is Pizzagate real or just some tall tale? Anthony Weiner’s laptop may reveal more than we want to know. He will soon have to appear in court, and chances are he will spill the beans on many others high up in government. That is if he isn’t assassinated first. The Democrats are suffering many casualties as the new administration continues to probe evidence of extreme misbehavior.

Divorce is prevailing even in Christian circles and is on par with the rest of the country’s divorce rate. All the while, well respected church leaders are falling because of adulterous affairs. Televangelists with the prosperity gospel continue to rob millions from their gullible followers.

In the meantime, the falling away from the Church is happening, especially in England, Canada and the U.S.A. Mosques are popping up where churches once stood. Sharia law is being propagated in various parts of our country. Muslims are taking over everywhere they set foot. If your church feels sorry for these devil worshipers then please let them send missionaries to their home countries to convert them.

The Muslims who are already here have no intention of assimilating into our Judeo-Christian culture and many of their leaders are demanding Sharia law in places like Dearborn Michigan while Lansing, my hometown continues to be a sanctuary city. Muslims are also making demands in Minnesota. Public schools in some places are teaching our young students how to worship Allah in class. In New York City the body of the first female Muslim judge was found floating in the Hudson River today. This may spark retaliation on the part of fellow Muslims. How will we respond?

Persecution of Christians in other lands continues rising, with Christian men, women and children being slaughtered wholesale; this while we here in the United States live a life of plenty without a care in the world. We need to wake up and smell the coffee. But from the look of things we may live to see these atrocities reach our shores; and it may already be here waiting to strike. It is said that there are over forty radical Islamic compounds in the United States and more on our north and south ready to pounce on us when the time is right.

As big and strong as our country is it appears to be crumbling from within; there are various reasons for this happening. First is the apostasy taking place within in various Christian denominations, and then come the apathy and/or complete spiritual blindness of many others. We have built our houses on sinking sand. We only desire the acquisition of money and things it will buy.

Some may be anticipating the persecution of the Christian church and are getting out of dodge while they still can. But these are the ones who only came to play church and never took these spiritual things seriously anyway. On another front some church leaders are saying that everyone goes to heaven. But Jesus said, “I am the way the truth and the life, no man comes to the Father but by me.” No shades of grey in those spoken words by the King of kings—Jesus.

As for demons and demon possession; is there really demon possession out there? Are demons real or just a figment of our imagination? Is the paranoia many are experiencing drugs, or the extreme fear of what we are facing today, or due to demonic influence? Jesus used to cast out demons, which are proof enough for me that they exist and there is evidence of it everywhere you look. Today, the Catholic Church is in need of exorcists. Would you care to volunteer?

Seeing all these things happening we would have to be blind, deaf and dumb not to think that these are the last of the last days.

The one thing that hasn’t come to pass yet are the plagues and pestilences that are sure to come in the very near future if prophecy is to be fulfilled fully. However, Aids, Zika and sexually transmitted deceases are rampant around the world already with 42 percent of Americans infected with the papillomavirus. Perhaps a deadly contagion is getting ready to make it’s appearance as promiscuity and infidelity get out of hand.

Now about movies; the documentary The Devils Miners was made several years ago with the intent of show the suffering of fatherless Bolivian boys, who beginning at the age of ten, work         in the silver mines. While doing so they chew cocoa leaves throughout the workday for strength and stamina. They are taught to worship the devil upon entering the mines and make offerings to him. While in town others worship Christ!

Walt Disney must be rolling over in his grave with the new gay-friendly animated fairy tale, Princes, featuring gays kissing and who knows what else. And this was made for children?

The movie The Stoning of Sorayam M. can be rented from your local library and is based on a true story that took place in the Muslim country of Iran. How the filmmakers were able to accomplish this is beyond me, since everything in it appears to be authentic and very well staged. The stoning was an actual event where the young woman was stoned because of trumped up charges by her husband who wanted to marry a younger woman for the dowry he would receive upon marrying her.

Even Sorayam’s father and two sons participated in the stoning! I know this is not news to some of us, but it happens on a nearly daily basis around the world. What an evil “religion.” And to think that many liberal women want to see Sharia law in this country! They must be suicidal or nuts—maybe both.

I went to see the movie The Case for Christ. There were at most, forty people in the audience. What does that say about effectiveness of such “Christian movies?” For me it was a good testimony, but it was as if a preacher were preaching to the choir.
