IS JUDGMENT BEGINNING PREMATURELY?

By Jim Towers

Rain continues to pour from the heavens, on the USA and all the earth – caldrons of molten lava spew from below.

It seems like God is crying his eyes out and seething below the surface in frustration. His creation is doing it again. It seems there is nothing to keep them from sinning – (except for those with the Holy Spirit given to those who believe in Jesus Christ and try to live accordingly.) and even they are becoming apostate and unable to resist the pull of bad doctrine and sincere sorrow for acting like the heathen they so easily condemn.

All seem to be intent on destroying themselves rather than to submit to Gods laws and extreme love for them. What a pitiful situation,

The “good old USA” is a Christian nation founded on Christian principles – (albeit you wouldn’t know it the way its inhabitants have been acting as of late.) is now experiencing severe flooding and crazy weather like never before. With a corrupt and atheistic government and drugged out zombies barely able to hold themselves upright – we are becoming the worse of the worse. Hypocrisy and apathy reign supreme in a country that was once a beacon of light to the rest of the world.

When trying to find a church that is aware of these atrocities but overlooks them for the sake of trying to appease the powers that be, we are instead propagating the idea that church leaders know best what’s good for us. “Forget the Bible, listen to me” is their mantra.

Drummers bang on the drums in ear splitting rhythm while blinding strobe lights flash on and off overhead. The stage has been set to accommodate youthful entertainment rather than instill the Word of God. The youthful preacher with his shirt untucked and spread out like a blanket in front of his too tight or torn pants. In truth if young people wanted entertainment they would go to or view a concert featuring a popular singer/performer like Justin Timberlake or Lady Ga Ga.

Such men and women may think themselves modern day prophets and such, but leave much to be desired in their attempt to be popular and be looked upon as paragons of virtue and spiritual knowledge, while they live in sumptuous homes and drive expensive cars when they should be on their knees asking God’s direction and crying out for forgiveness and for not compelling others to do the same.

They don’t seem to be aware of the signs of the times spending all their time planning their churches next extravaganza.

Time is shorter than we think and if ever there was a time to repent of all these human compulsions it is now.

Like in the days of Lot and Noah our benevolent creator came to the end of his rope and will take those who have His Spirit away from the chaos and hopeless ness. Frustrated, exasperated, and finally enraged he (except for a few) must make his move and destroy the evil doers – lest they corrupt the entire earth.

God knew this would happen but apparently took pity on mankind who is no match for Satanic influence. Again except for believers in Christ, to whom He promised, “Greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world.” I suspect He hoped for the best.

If you were God, wouldn’t you be angry at watching mankind destroy His greatest gift to us by the millions – that is children and humanity in general who kill one another indiscriminately in wars.

Day after day something new and terrifying confronts us yet these warnings are an act of love. God is giving us time to repent but He won’t relent with His plan to destroy evil and evil doers.

Jim’s book report:

While I don’t usually buy a book at Barnes and Noble, and instead peruse something to read at the public library, I ran out to by my very own copy of “Government Gangsters” by Kash Patel.

I had my suspicions, but after reading the first few pages when I found it at the local library. After a few words, I could tell it was going to be very interesting to find out how our government REALLY works. I was so glad to find this expose by someone who’s been there and done that.

Naturally, and almost without exception, a man will give his account of a given situation from his perceived perspective. But this man has all the receipts and taken together with whatever we can glean here and there from often skewered sources we can began to put together the pieces of the puzzle come together to create the larger picture. (But did you know that God can also cut through all the falsehood and façade that evil forces can throw at us – it’s called spiritual discernment?)

In this case I had to some research on my own to uncover outright lies  I had been led to believe. Men that I thought had at least some decency were found to be wolves in sheep’s clothing and interested only in their own well- being. Career politicians are the worse of the worst.

Tucker Carlson gave a speech in Canada that resonated with me. It was about when the wrong people take control of the country. He said, “There’s kind of no more inoffensive and peaceful group in the world than the Christians,” he pointed out. “In fact, their religion commands them to turn the other cheek and to put the concerns of others above their own concerns.” Carlson also condemned the series of church burnings across Canada, declaring that if someone burns churches, “and the prime minister and his little weird buddies are endorsing [the] burning [of] churches… I don’t need any other facts of the case, you’re on the wrong side.” – “In a country like that, in a world like that, if you think that preaching the Gospel is so dangerous that the people who do it need to be in prison, in shackles, you’re serving someone other than the people of Canada,” he stated.

WORLD WAR THREE THREATENED AND STILL MORE SIGNS

By Jim Towers

The signs of the times continue without abating. In fact they are getting to be even more prevalent and devastating. With continents splitting apart and new sightings of U.A.V. (UFO’s)That leave little doubt of their veracity. It’s only a matter of time before the rapture occurs.

A Pentagon insider on the internet revealed today that we are on the cusp of World War Three. Now whether that means one or the other, really doesn’t matter – does it? (A picture of the crazed Ayatollah introduces the article on the internet.)

I used to read the newspaper daily or watch the evening news with notable newsmen and women. But now I check out the world news on the internet with videos to boot. Since the former news sources have become woke and far lift opinions trying to be open minded, I have given up on them completely and have not watched television in over ten years

In a recent article I jokingly speculated about how Joe Biden and his wayward son might deflect attention from their criminality here at home.

At first it was as simple as to bribe Ukraine with billions if dollars to keep their mouths shut about the Burisma scandal that took place over four years ago. But that well has run dry. And now the Bidens are attempting to cover their folly by igniting wars wherever possible. The Houthis in Yemen made that possible by lobbing bombs at Israel indiscriminately and targeting vessels of commerce in the Red Sea. This gives the current administration an excuse to wage war with any and all comers.

Russia, a ally of Syria has threatened to go after us for bombing Syria yet again along with Israel. They threaten to be targeting the U.S, and UK for doing so. Thereby setting the stage for World War Three, or as the Bible says is the first war of Gog and Magog.

Iran is readying its forces for all-out war with Israel – even as we speak – and Joe Biden probably couldn’t be happier. (Whew!…Has the Biden family dodged the bullet yet again!) with war breaking out on all fronts and deflecting from their own troubles here at home.

The Biden criminal family has been in operation for years while Joe was becoming the youngest congressman in U.S. History back in the day. Today they even have the audacity to produce a film about their proposed innocence of their activities. Great idea, reverse psychology and outright lies. But still there are some who believe the lies of the devil who was “a liar from the beginning.”

With all that’s happening in the world today I was reflecting on what I may have left undone or overlooked in my years of ministry.

Yes, I’ve shared the gospel with family and friends and even total strangers. But Richard was a tough nut to crack.

In an excerpt from my book. “Visions, Miraacles, Peace and Power” I detail how my coffee shop ministry came into being.

“The Dunkin Donuts shop became my ministry station, and I would go there daily for a long period of time. Before long I began to know all the regulars, and many of them were smokers. A young man named Richard came over to me asking for a cigarette. I told him I didn’t smoke, and that Christ had delivered me from the addiction of cigarettes. “So, you’re a Christian too,” he asked?  And I replied in the affirmative. At this, Richard got his coffee from an adjoining table and joined me.  We became fast friends. He and his wonderful family who once owned the first Pizza shop on Miami Beach, took me in, and I slept on their screened in porch for a time. I had lucked out, his mother made the best lasagna and Pizza in the world.

We would talk about faith and church, during which I would share scripture with him. It seems he had tried to attend a couple of churches in the area but was scared away by the “Tongues” phenomenon that was contrary to his Catholic background.  Since I was also raised in the Catholic faith we could communicate easily.

Although Rick could be a rascal at times, he was the best friend anyone could ever have. It was right around the time that I was living by the skin of my teeth with no work coming in.  I was hungry one evening and popped into the donut shop hoping to find a friend who might buy me a cup of coffee, although they never did (that is except for Richard, the then young man in his mid- thirties even lent me three hundred dollars to help me buy another van. Naturally, I paid him back promptly.)  

Back at the donut shop I was becoming “The Preacher” to many of the regulars, many of whom were retired or semi-retired Jews. I made it a point to introduce myself to each one and to talk about the things that interested them. I truly found each person interesting, and because I never pushed my faith down their throats, they always respected me and so I often initiated our conversations.

Nevertheless, I began to understand why God had me there, and was able to share Christ with my newfound friends. I stayed with Richard for a couple of years since acting roles were petering out, – for lack of interest – and I began to focus on my newfound ministry going so far as starting a preaching ministry in a park nearby with Richard’s help.

Now, thirty years later I was still trying to get a “Christian movie made and had made a trip to Miami yet again to film exteriors – even while struggling with Angina.

While there I called my old friend Richard, and he said his single brother had died and he was now saddled with both elderly parents to take care of. A month or so later he told me his father had died over the phone. Finally, soon after his father passed away – his mother died too -three losses in less than a year. Now Rick was alone – really alone and he went to stay with a sister to grieve with her for a time.

After an appropriate amount of time had passed, I wrote to him but spoke of other things to take his mind off the calamity he had just gone through and primarily of his relationship to God. Explaining the Gospel as best I could, using scripture and nothing else. (Which is the way I work.)

You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make them drink. That was two days ago. What could he be thinking?

Please pray for Rick.

MORE RAIN, EARTHQUAKES AND NOW VOLCANOES TOO

By Jim Towers

And the rain just keeps a coming in Australia, Argentina, and now Noth America and California, followed by volcanic fissures erupting into volcanoes in Iceland and other volcanoes rumbling and spewing magma elsewhere. These plus earthquakes – where in China 200 have died.so far. Oh, and let us not forget the two wars. Israel against Hamas and Ukraine against Russia.

If that isn’t enough to wake a person up, I don’t know what is.

Here is a report I received from last week’s article about the rain in Australia. Where the rain in has devastated Queensland with flooding and with crocks swimming hither and yon.

Interesting article, Jim I just read on RR.

I live in Cairns North Queensland in the wet tropics, and we just had a

category 1 to 2 cyclone (hurricane) that passed to the north two days

ago but the rain continues.  We have had nearly 18 inches of rain since

Tuesday and it continues.  Because we are in the wet tropics the

water tends to get away but affected by tides.  This year has been below

average rainfall.  The monsoon has failed to come for a number of years now.

That will do for now.  Need to keep moving – Ron

Meanwhile, we here in Florida have received a deluge of rain too, but not as devastating as the ones I posted last week throughout the world – especially no those like the one in Saudi Arabia where camels of all things were seen swimming to save their lives. Incidentally, they also experienced hail for the first time ever. Mecca was recently hit with enormous amounts of rain, while worshipers were literally swept off their feet by the high velocity winds, as well. Many are questioning their belief in Islam. They wonder how Allah could let such a thing happen since he is a loving god who instructs them to kill Christians and Jews.

The Bible clearly says that hail and torrential rain is a judgement of God. It hailed during the time of Pharoh and killed people and livestock and leveled and destroyed crops. The seventh plague in the book of Revelation is hail as heavy as a hundred pounds raining down on mankind for their wickedness and vile behavior.

Either way, whether this phenomenon is due to global warming, El Nino or Donald Trump (as liberals would have you believe.) God is fully aware of the reasons and could be using these extreme tactics to get our attention in the hope that mankind will cry out to Him in desperation – before the time of Tribulation. A time when unless Christ steps in to stop the complete madness the whole world would be destroyed.

Providentially, I, living in Florida am ensconced in area where the Gulf Stream swirls around – skirting the area and heads North. But not always. We do get hurricanes every so often but again we live out to the beginnings of the everglades which keeps us out of harm’s way. Thank God.

I for one can’t help but believe that these are warnings sent by God to get us all to repent. Even America, Christianity’s last stronghold of the Christian faith, has become so perverse that it too will face God’s warnings before the rapture of the church. Things have gotten so bad that two sodomites we caught on camera having intercourse in the Senate Chamber of the Capitol building in D.C. recently- which goes to show how vile and sick our society has become. The present Godless and perverse administration is capable of anything to demean and mock the conservative way of life and God. This Christmas a statue of Baphomet (Satan) seated on his throne and holding a child on his lap now adorns the state capitol of Wisconsin.

In these uncertain days of fear and anxiety we need a firm anchor for the soul and mind. The Bible has been mine for the past forty-five years. I have trusted in it wholeheartedly and it has never failed me once. That is not to say I haven’t at times doubted God’s word – nevertheless God has proved Himself to be faithful to His word time after time.

Albeit God sometimes encounters resistance even from Satanic beings  or even his chosen ones to come to our rescue and has to find another way to meet our needs I suspect that is why the Bible  says to WAIT upon the Lord, “Those who wait upon the Lord will renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.”

(God is a gentleman and He will not interfere in the affairs of men unless he’s asked to.) It sometimes takes a little longer than expected for God to answer and we must hang on the proverbial cliff by our fingernails and rely on His promises even though it sometimes seems impossible for Him to show up in time.

Meanwhile, in India, Christian revival has broken out with thousands of people receiving Christ.

So do yourself a favor and memorize the following truths found in the Bible to ward off fear and anxiety from the things we see coming upon the world.

“If we fear God, we have nothing else to fear.”

“If God be for us, who can be against us?”

“God is a very present help in times of trouble.”

“Every word of God is true; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him.”

“You have not been given the spirit of fear, but of Power, Love, and a sound mind.”

“For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.”

In order to appropriate these promises, a person must repent and receive Christ.as Lord and savior.

PUTTING GOD IN A BOX

biblical prophecy

By Jim Towers

In present times we tend to put God in a box. So called sophisticates, phonies and know it all’s think we’ve got the Almighty all figured out. This is especially true of teachers of the Bible. Having gone to seminary who think they are the only ones who know God, nothing could be further from the truth. It’s the man who has experienced God’s presence and who knows Him intimately – that can tell you about Him. Who cares where Antioch is? Who cares about how many angels can dance on the head of a pin? The so – called experts only want recognition for what they think is their profound knowledge of God and other stage performances.

They seldom refer to Him as Father but only by the word – God – which could be anyone – Allah or Gia for example. They should Try calling out to our Father in heaven on their face in agony of soul and repentance and see what happens! God will show up! And they will never be the same again. In the Bible, our Heavenly Father says” I will show myself to him who seeks me with his whole heart, and he will give me praise.”

We are seldom taught that He is a very present help in times of trouble. We think, that if He really did exist, He is asleep somewhere under a shade tree – talking a nap – or perhaps that He died a long time ago. Silly, most of us don’t realize that all things exist because He exists and that all things are dependent on His existence?

Surprisingly, there are those who try to put God in a literal box not believing the things written in the Bible. That is that God has left the scene and will not fulfill His promises when we don’t really believe He can or will.

But like the Bible says, God is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

God, in times past spoke audibly to the very first men, Adam, Cain and Able then Enoch, Noah, Abraham and Moses. Elijah, Elisha, and others followed. These are men who sought God with all their hearts – holding nothing back. Most others were too busy gathering berries and anything else they could eat – even thanklessly; forgetting their creator and benefactor and eventually putting Him in a box to keep from answering to Him.

Surprisingly though, He can and will do the things same today and He can work miracles as well! But He also knows what’s best for us and will deny us certain things such as a (Yacht, millions of dollars or a Mercedes Benz) we all want but don’t really need. Instead, He makes sure we have the necessities of life – if we are His – but only if we ask.

However, God likes to be thanked and conversed with like any earthy father would, yet we barely give Him a second thought as we go about seeking money and pleasure. His word (The Bible) is often ignored, and people only read it in Sunday school to impress others – with a somber and./or religious expression on their faces.

Now, imagine if you will, the Bible as a box. This box is full of gold, jewels, and precious stones. But we leave it gathering dust on your bookshelves or, on our coffee table for everyone to see, maybe even your desk. You keep just for luck or read for comfort on  some far-off rainy day – maybe even to leaf through on our death bed. But that incredible book is worth more than all the treasure in the world. It can change your life completely-for the better.

Evil men have tried to destroy the word of God or to change it to suit their agenda and/or to gather followers. These teachers have tampered with it to their own destruction and the destruction of their followers. Take for example of Jim Jones or David Koresh who claimed to know more about this book than anyone else. Those are extreme modern cases. But there are other insidious so-called denominations who twist the Word of God to say things that are pure folly like the Mormons and the Jehovah’s witnesses.

Yesterday I went to my new Mission Station at Clam Pass, where a tram will take you to the restaurant/platform at the end of a boardwalk a mile away. As I arrived on foot to the boarding pavilion there was a middle-aged man standing with a female partner wearing a long-sleeved shirt and tie – and sporting a black wool fedora.

 “Looks like you’re dressed for a sunny day at the beach!” I quipped in jest.

The man didn’t laugh so I continued. “I’m sorry, if I offended you, I was only joking.”

With that we continued conversing and soon I contended with what turned out to be a Jehovah’s Witness who tried teaching me a few things about the Bible. (Little did he know that he was talking to a forty-five-year student of scripture.)

I should have known what he was a Jehovah’s Witnesses what with the propensity to try to appear respectable – if not knowledgeable- at the expense of appearing foolish. (It makes me wonder if they wear ties in bed.)

I let the man talk and finally, I simply replied, “Jesus said, “I am the way the truth and the life and no man comes to the Father but my me.” At which the conversation ended abruptly -just as the tram arrived and to ferry me to my mission station. The man stood pondering what I had just quoted.

Jim’s Book review,

As many of you know the Bible is my favorite book, I read a chapter in it every night and have been learning from it since I first received Christ as my Lord and Savior. I’ve owned the King James version and can quote many verses verbatim from it. But I’ve also owned The Living Bible, American Standard, and now the New King James. To (Study to show yourself approved, rightly dividing the word of God.)

I also recommend, “The Twelve Rules for Life” by Dr. Jordan B. Peterson and “The Road less traveled” by Dr. Peck. 

And just for fun and to stay ahead of the upcoming federal inquiries I recommend “The Laptop from Hell” by Miranda Divine. And as a follow up,” American Injustice” by John Paul Mac Isaak the Hunter Biden computer repairman, so that you might know what will be spoken of in the upcoming inquiry into the Biden family corruption by Congress.

A Note from Jim

Christian,Military Christians,Veterans,Special Operations Christians,Christ,Jesus,God,Prophecy,Warriors following Christ

With readers all over the world, Jim Towers receives emails from all places in the United States and from as far away as Australia, the Philippines, Africa, Canada, Alaska and even China. 

In his articles on major websites, he tells stories of the exploits he experiences in his ongoing ministry. Stories of miracles, conversions and his over forty years in the movie industry. Jim has worked on stage in leading roles, television, and commercials and in major motion pictures as a character actor. 

In his newly released book,” Visions, Miracles, Peace and Power”, he tells unbelievable outlandish and supernatural stories of life on the mean streets of Miami, Hollywood, Detroit, and other parts of the country and the Western Hemisphere.

Jim excelled in artwork and sang fearlessly before his peers in grade school and became an avid reader and remains so today. For work, he started out as a paperboy in Lansing, Michigan at age twelve and went on to become a certified welder like his dad and he worked as a free-lance artist.

On a lark, in Florida he auditioned for the role of playboy doctor Dr. Roth in the play “Take my Wife” and won the role. After the play ended, he was encouraged by Charles Livingston, the retired director of the Lone Ranger series on radio and television, to enroll in drama studies at the University of Miami. Jim acted on that advise, which began an acting career that spanned over forty years as a professional actor. His writing began twenty years into his acting career, during which he wrote several screenplays, one of which became a blockbuster after being plagiarized by the Hollywood Cabal.

After a second divorce (due to his turning down a big contract with a tobacco company who wanted him to appear in the lead of a national tobacco commercial) and feeling that he had nothing to live for, it was then that God called him into the ministry.  A despondent Jim stopped everything and seeing a great need, became a “Steet Minister”. Now he would live for others.

After many years Jim got his bearings and continued his work in the entertainment industry and coupled with his ministry He began contributing essays to two world famous websites Rapture Ready and Drop Zone Delta.  

A benefactor in England, J.B. (a most talented web designer), offered to build him a website of his own.  Today that website is known as “www.propheticsignsandwonders.com.”  Not only that, but this dynamic man published Jim’s first book detailing his incredible and supernatural life story in “Visions, Miracles, Peace and Power.”

Soon after, an Army Infantry Officer and veteran named Martin Rodriguez also offered his excellent, well-made and colorful website www.dropzonedelta.com (warriors following Christ) for me to post my articles TOO!

“Visions, Miracles, Peace and Power” is available on Amazon books and Kindle. Order one or two or a hundred in time for Christmas for an invaluable gift.

Annunciation of the Messiah

Excerpts from the study of Luke by Chuck Missler

26] And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, 29] And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be. 30] And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God. 31] And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. 32] He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: 33] And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

Jesus will reign on the throne of David forever. No end.

Five Key Predictions

1. He will be great.

2. He will be called the Son of the Most High. The Septuagint often used the term “Most High” ( hupsistos) to translate the Hebrew [, ‘elyown (Gen 14:18-22, et al). Mary could not have missed the significance of that terminology. The fact that her Baby was to be called the “Son of the Most High” pointed to His equality with YHWH. 

In Semitic thought a son was a “carbon copy” of his father, and the phrase “son of” was often used to refer to one who possessed his “father’s” qualities (e.g. the “son of wickedness” in Ps 89:22 means a wicked person).

3. He will be given the throne of His father David. Jesus, as David’s descendant, will sit on David’s throne when He reigns in the Millennium (2 Sam 7:16; Ps 89:3-4, 28-29; Isa 9:1-7; 11-12; 61; 66; Jer 33). This is profoundly significant: the Throne of David did not exist during His earthly ministry and has yet to be fulfilled literally. Today He is on His Father’s throne in heaven (Acts 2:29-36), not on David’s throne. Many churches attempt to dodge the implications of this—and the myriad of Old Testament prophecies regarding a literal earthly rule—a view known as “Amillennialism.”

4. He will reign over the house of Jacob forever. Jesus’ reign over the nation Israel as her King will begin in the Millennium and continue on into the eternal state.

5. His kingdom will never end. These promises must have immediately reminded Mary of the promise of YHWH to David (2 Sam 7:13-16). David understood the prophecy as referring not only to his immediate son (Solomon) who would build the temple, but also to the future Son who would rule forever. David stated that YHWH had spoken of the distant future (2 Sam 7:19). 

The Virgin birth was literal; David’s throne will be literal. The resurrection of Jesus Christ proves the Virgin Birth. Once you can prove the resurrection of Christ, then everything else comes together.

TALK IS CHEAP

By Jim Towers

I read an article on the internet where the writer spoke of a generation of so called “nones”. These are generally young people who have no desire to join church congregations because they are seen as manipulative money-grubbing enterprises These would prefer to sit by the seashore strumming a guitar and just being alone with God while referring to themselves as being very “Spiritual” Granted, this is a good way to avoid conflict. Nevertheless, the Bible teaches that we are to gather to worship and encourage one another.

I would refute the comments that Pastors like to lord it over the congregants and take their money.to enrich themselves – yet they are as scarce as hen’s teeth. They need money to support their families just like the rest of us. But when a pastor owns more than one house, a yacht or an airplane or two it ought to alert us to their motives for preaching.

Instead, we gather to gain favor and try to lord it over those of lower social status.  All too often we church going Christians are quick to condemn others who hold opposing theological views. But since we are as different and varied as snowflakes, we will inevitably hold different views about nearly everything – although some things are plainly obvious.to all of us alike. The Bible says that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God, and I can’t tell you how liberating it is to know such things.

The Holy scriptures speak for themselves and are in fact written in stone. The Ten Commandments are a good example of this truth, while the teaching of Christ Jesus is “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, soul and mind and thy neighbor as thyself.” In doing so, you can hardly go wrong.

The modern church is rife with pedophilia and other forms of sin. Is it any wonder the church is faltering? Yes, we are saved by grace but what about the rewards we will receive in heaven once we are there? If we do. While some may be like that, there are an equal number of church leaders that really care about their flock – even though many are called but few are chosen. If one can generalize about such matters, it really shouldn’t be so. My problem with fellow believers is that some still harbor jealousy, resentment, and actual hate toward their fellow congregants.

So, one has to lean on spiritual discernment to know if things are on the up and up in your, congregation and that comes only when the Holy Spirit resides within us.

Jordan B. Peterson, the clinical phycologist that many are turning to these days is one of my favorite people. But although he espouses a belief in God and Bible Truths, he stops short of naming the name of Christ, (I suppose it’s because Christianity conjures up bad connotations as it relates to heretics and the many false teachers that abound today) and so he uses the term Logos and when asked he just says, “I try to live as if God exists.”

I’d like to have a talk with that man to assure him that no one is capable of living up to the standards God has ordained. That’s the reason Christ came to die for us. “For all are sinners saved by grace.  

Sad to say, but people being human act like the unsaved and by their fruits you shall know them. Fist, take the mote that is in your eye so that you can see the mote in your brothers’ eye, then lovingly help him or her gently to take it out, remembering that you too were like that once.

Only the study of and adherence to the Holy Scriptures can one eventually reach maturity in the things of God – even to the experiencing of the ethereal – although doing so is very rare.

I had a friend years ago who could recite beautiful prayers, but who was afraid of his own shadow. That was a dead giveaway of his faith. He just wanted to impress others with his supposed holiness. This friend reminded me of another more prominent man – a preacher who spoke kike a lion but was more concerned about food than his fellow man. Is it any wonder that Jesus said, “By their fruits you shall know them”? Another Bible verse comes to mind when considering those we hold to be our spiritual instructors, and that is “The fruits of the spirit are Love, Peace, Joy, long Suffering and self-control.” The last one is evident in the size of their girth which tells us – they lack self-control.

Promises are made by our politicians, who doesn’t remember “Read my lips? “Uttered by President George Herbert Bush? Yes, talk is cheap.

Today we have people in office who lie consistently, and it’s hard to tell if they even know what truth is. How do we know a politician is telling a lie? – He just opened his mouth.

Book Report

“The Josiah Manifesto” by Johnathan Cahn is the latest book by this man of God. Whatever you may think of him he comes up with interesting topics that are never/ or hardly ever brought up in the Christian church. But maybe that’s a good thing, I don’t know. All I know from having been in the church for over forty years is that believers don’t need eschatology nor prophetic banter to through them of the rails of sound Biblical doctrine. Some of us will be “forever learning but never able to come to the knowledge of the truth”.

Nevertheless, as weird as he may be Johnathan Cahn in his all-black attire, he is deeper than most theologians and his understanding of the Hebrew tongue is remarkable in shedding light to the Jewish festivals and such.

Incidentally, I embarked on a book titled “The history of the Jews”- (a 600-page book” by Pawl Johnson, ) just as war broke out in Israel and I am learning about the long history of these people who many refer to as God’s Chosen People. I’ll tell you later what I have learned., 

In summation, to my article. Words have the power to heal, console and encourage but also to destroy and kill as well; so we should use them wisely.

WITH THIS ADMINISTRATION IN POWER OUR COUNTRY IS IN PERIL

By Jim Towers

Just before Obama became president, he, and his communist loving friends, namely Bill Ayres, and Bernadine Dorn were having meetings on how to bring down our Christian nation. Today Bill and Bernadine teach anarchy in our universities and Obama’s corrupt vice president sits in the office of the presidency ripping off the public.

In video recordings soon to be made public, they discussed their foolish plans at that point in time. It took years for their plan to come to fruition, and now it looks like the radical left may still get their wish to destroy our way of life and our constitution. This with the arrests of outspoken people who don’t agree with their communist agenda.

If something isn’t done soon or God lets us have what we so richly deserve, Christians and conservatives alike will be forced to comply with their treacherous wishes and agenda or go to prison.

On another front millions of dollars were given to the Ukrainians again to be silent about what they know about Mr. Biden who by fanning the flames of war, we are expected to keep our eyes on that calamity and overlook the corruption that took place between the two entities in the recent past.

But the Bible says, “Be sure your sins will find you out.” And so now, we are on the cusp of war with Russia ourselves.

In the book,

“America’s Cultural Revolution”, writer Christopher F. Rufo tell what he knows about the radical lefts plots to destroy the country and hand it over to our communist enemies.

So far, these subversives have succeeded in seeding our public institutions and government with these radical and far-fetched ideas of equality and revolution.

You can say what you will about God being in control (and I agree) but He expects us to do our part in keeping the enemy at bay.

Blue states are rife with criminality and flash mobs rob and trash stores. Drug addicted young people stand frozen like zombies in the open and defecate in the streets of lawless blue cities throughout the country. The young, homeless and disenfranchised have now begun dying in the gutters of America.

People walking to work have to step over prone bodies to reach their destination. It’s a literal nightmare. Hope for law abiding citizens is fading fast and except for those who know Christ – there is no peace to be found anywhere else.

This dystopian scenario was just beginning to be played out in Liberal Los Angeles when I was there. Still, who could have imagined it would get this bad?

I remember walking down Hollywood and Vine one night. I was alone and was getting a feel for the town. After a while I felt the need to empty my bladder but knowing that no store or restaurant would let a pedestrian use their facility, I figured a bar would be my best bet for relief.

Sure enough no one noticed as I made my way back to the rest room. They were too busy arguing and laughing, name calling and doing all other things that drunks do.

As I pushed the door open to leave after I relieved myself and I coughed and choked from the blue tobacco smoke that hung on the ceiling, – a cloud so thick you could cut it with a knife. Then as I stumbled out onto the sidewalk, I almost bumped into a familiar figure whom I had watched on television’s TBN. It was Paul and Jan Crouch. Jan peered around to see the drunk that had just stumbled out the door and the disgust on her face was palpable. I think if she had a n umbrella in her hand, she’d have whacked the sin and daylights out of me. Paul kept his cool.

The bar was situated on a corner and the light was red, so I sauntered up next to the celebrity couple and waiting for the light to change I exclaimed “Aren’t you Jan and Paul Crouch?” She, turned to glare at me so fast I thought I saw her pink wig slip a bit. Paul let her deal with me since she was the more self-righteous one of the two. Jan glared at me thinking I was just another drunk, turned her back on me. Then the light turned green.

Once when my new wife and I were walking down the boulevard with another young couple I, being the confident and frisky evangelical type said to our friends jokingly, “I’ll share the gospel with the next person wearing a red hat.” We all laughed. We had been talking about being bold enough to share Christ with anyone and this was a as unlikely to happen as the man in the moon dancing.

Wouldn’t you know it, I barely finished making that claim when just then a middle-aged black man came around the corner in front of us wearing a red hat and sporting red shoes! We all froze, and our friends looked at me challengingly, while my young wife put her hand over her mouth so as to stifle a giggle. “Ok wise guy, do your thing.”

I took a deep breath and stepped over in front of the oncoming man saying, “Excuse me sir… do you know Jesus Christ as your savior?”

“Wat choo meen…sport?”

“I mean are you a Christian?”

“Well, I think I am…My mama was one and she always took us to church.”

If I remember right. I shared the gospel with the man and that was that.

Our friends looked at each other in shock God had a good laugh, and I don’t make unlikely predictions anymore.

“Ah, for the good old days.”

REVIVAL!?

By Jim Towers

Tomorrow evening, we will be having a potluck dinner at our church. A young pastor by the name of Steven Clark will be speaking afterward. At 35 years of age, he is articulate and knowledgeable about the things of God, (it doesn’t hurt that his father has been a pastor for a very long time.) He will be speaking about how we might reach out to the younger generations with the message of hope found in Christ Jesus and the Holy Bible.

I am going to make a couple of recommendations about how we might bring young people into the church family and one of them is offering water baptism in the Gulf of Mexico on a given Sunday.

The other idea is for the older members to mentor young individuals with like hobbies or work skills. Since the retired people in our church have nothing to do except golf and watch television. This would help them become engaged in life again. The environment in the culture we live in today is not the time to quit and just play golf. Our young people are desperate to hear word of hope and salvation. Young people are dying, committing suicide, and losing hope in these turbulent and uncertain times.

The following articles found in Rapture Ready are proof positive that God isn’t finished saving people – at least not yet.

A Texas youth pastor says an outpouring of revival is taking place among college students at Texas A&M Corpus Christi and it shows “no signs of slowing down” as hundreds have already given their lives to Jesus and others are getting water baptized almost daily. Tarik Whitmore, the young adult pastor at New Life Church in Corpus Christi, Texas, told CBN News he is seeing a movement among college students who are getting saved and then boldly proclaiming the Good News of Jesus Christ with the student body. The result is a campus being transformed for Jesus – and it is happening quickly.
Thousands of students at Auburn packed out Neville Arena on Tuesday night to worship and praise Jesus, but an impromptu baptism that started with one student wanting to be baptized grew to roughly 200 people who decided to give their lives to Christ.

After the final revival all hell will break loose as believers in Christ are whisked away, leaving non – believers to suffer under a totalitarian regime and the Anti-Christ.

I’ve seen firsthand how just showing a little concern for the lost can transform lives after ministering on the mean streets of Miami and Hollywood for years.

Even when being among groups of actors and celebrities while I was in the world, I wasn’t a part of it and still was able to maintain my dignity without using curse words, partaking of drugs, or telling dirty jokes. Everyone respected me for holding to my faith and loving on them.

A few years ago, I was told we would never have a revival again, when I wrote that we would experience revival – just before the rapture. Now it’s happening.

Book report.

Until I met Mary, I wasn’t sure what to make of visions, Signs and wonders, but after my own spiritual experiences I was now sure that God could and would appear in a vision or send His angels to do so. He can produce signs and wonders to wake people up and make provision through miraculous means and more… much more.

This is her story,

Caroline and I hadn’t been attending Beverly Hills Baptist Church for very long, when a young couple about our age began attending there too. We extended a hand of friendship to the newcomers and invited them to a movie and coffee after the evening showing. By the time we got back to the church to pick up their car it was about eleven o’clock at night.

They were sitting in the back seat of my two door Mustang. Tom got out first. And had expected Mary to follow, but Mary just sat there undecidedly. Finally, Tom said “Marryyy, aren’t you going to get out of the car?” In exasperating tones.

Mary didn’t know how to answer but only squirmed but finally after what seemed an eternity she finally muttered, “Today as I was taking a nap and angel appeared at the foot of the bed. He said that at the end of the day, I would know how to be saved. The day is almost over, and I don’t know how to be saved!”

I immediately I knew what I had to do and quickly opened the glove box. Taking out one of the little red Bible’s with the plan of salvation in it – that I always carried in the car and began reading the Bible verses to her. “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved, and thy house” also John 3:16 and couple of others.

Then I asked her to pray a prayer of repentance with me and she did haltingly, Finally, she asked Jesus to come into her heart to save her. The Angels prophecy was fulfilled that night for Mary.

After weeping for a bit, Mary got out of the car while thanking me over and over. “Thank you Jim, thank you, thank you, thank you!

This little is just one example of the many fascinating stories you will read in my book “Visions, Miracles, Peace and Power” now available on Amazon and Kindle.

You’ll never think of God in the same limited and belittling way again – by bringing Him down to our size. You may even learn to lean on Him in all of life’s circumstances like I did many years ago.

God is real and loves us all unconditionally- like a normal father would. Try Him and see that He is good. Call out to Him today.

YOU SHALL BE FISHERS OF MEN

By Jim Towers

Taking a break from all the bad news and tumult on the internet I decided to go fishing. I hadn’t had a chance to go fishing for souls or even fish lately since the Naples Pier my mission station was destroyed again by hurricane Ian, and it usually takes two years to reconstruct. I did however, go to another place on the beach that has a boardwalk with a pavilion at the far end of it right on the beach.

It is quite a nice spot with restaurant surrounded by seating for visitors to chow down with an open view of the Gulf. The water was murky on this day and so I just sat at the railing under one of the umbrella’s that skirts the table topped fence. Another man in his mid-sixties sat next to me.

As usual I struck up a conversation and found out that he had retired early from having been an accountant. He seemed like a decent sort and after a while told me that he often came out to fish early in the morning since he didn’t sleep much because of what he called insomnia. I quickly found out that he wasn’t a Christian. “Are you a Christian? I asked.

“Well, I haven’t been to church in a very long time, but I consider myself one.”

“When did you receive Christ?” I continued.

He replied, “I don’t understand, I thought if you were born here, you were automatically a Christian.”

“The Bible says that a Christian is a follower of Jesus Christ and in fact whenever I can’t sleep, I pray without ceasing and soon fall asleep with a peace that surpasses all understanding. I answered.

“I never knew.”

Then these words poured out of me as if they had a mind of their own, “Would you like to pray to receive Christ right now?”

“I don’t know how to pray.” He stammered.

“Well then just let me lead the way” which I did – with the man stumbling along.

“Father in heaven, I’m sorry I’ve ignored you, please forgive my sins and give me the peace and assurance that only Jesus Christ can give. I will get a Bible to learn more about you, in Jesus’s name I pray.”

Then we parted ways. This was one of the easiest converts (catches) I’ve ever made, so I guess you could say – the fishing was good.

Then, wouldn’t you know it, Sunday’s sermon at my new church was about “street preachers” and whether they do any good or not, and I was slightly offended – but only slightly – since they don’t know my life story nor my motives.

It sounded like only qualified pastors with diplomas, and such, were qualified in reaching out to the lost, yet the first Disciples were fishermen who later became “fishers of men” and common folks, and if I’m not mistaken only Dr. Luke had a doctorate or degree.

So, I thought it may be a good opportunity to let the church leaders know a little more about me.

In my email I wrote,

Dear highly esteemed Pastors, Brad and Doug,

As you may already know, I have recently had my book “Visions, Miracles, Peace and Power” published and it is now available on Amazon and Kindle. I’ve started writing the screenplay in hopes of making a movie based on the book.  The book is full of stories of redemption and hope and correlates my adventures on the mean streets of Hollywood and Miami as well as my donut shop ministry of many years. It culminates with my Fishing Pier ministry here in Naples. 

I also have a ministry on the internet as a contributing writer for Christian websites namely, Rapture Ready and Drop Zone Delta, and I have my own web site, Prophetic Signs and Wonders as well.

I have never been one to preach on street corners or go about with a sandwich board strapped to my body saying, “the end is near” (even though it may be). Instead, I reach out to individuals with the open hand of empathy and often friendship as well, as you will see in my book.

After reading my story, some have commented that the story would make a good movie too.  I am not one to boast about my achievements or exploits, except for the purpose of strengthening the brethren (which is a mandate given to me by Jesus Christ, probably because of my zeal to share the Gospel).

I see this to share the Gospel in an uplifting and entertaining way, as there will be several popular secular songs included in it, with a little levity and just a little preaching. I intend to begin filming as soon as the proceeds of my book begin to materialize. If you care to join hands with me in this endeavor, please let me know soon. 

P.S.

To those who don’t believe that God doesn’t work in the modern day – I quote scripture.

                                        “God, the same yesterday, today and forever.”

“For God is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.”
