THE TRUTH ABOUT Y2K?

Newswatch Magazine

Revelation 13:1 states: "And I stood upon the sand of the sea [meaning humanity], and saw a beast [government] rise up out of the sea [of humanity]." Now notice how far this Beast [or government]will extend its power! Revelation 13:7 says: ".and power was given him over ALL kindreds, and tongues, and NATIONS." That is Global Government no matter how you slice it!
But notice what else will be accomplished by this Global Government. Revelation 13:16-17 reads: "And he [a second Beast of v.11] causeth ALL, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a MARK [for identification] in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
And that NO man might be able to BUY and SELL, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name." And, of course, v. 18 tells us the number is 666.
In the aftermath of Y2K, many Christians have been both disillusioned and wondering exactly what all the hype and buildup of Y2K was all about in the first place. Was Y2K imagined? Was it built up to provide a cover for the real agenda? The following may give some answers as to WHY Y2K was built up, then allowed to pass with only minor incidents.
Introduction
Joan Veon has covered 35 U.N. conferences on several continents. Her first conference made her realize that we are in a time of world government on the International level already. While the beginnings of world government began long ago, the current phase of world government infrastructure began between 1941 and 1943, then the passage of the U.N. Charter by the U.S. Senate in 1945 as its official birthday. All that is needed to bring this world government into the forefront of everyone's understanding is a planned, managed, catastrophic event to make the transition from the world we know in America to that of recognizable world government based on the United Nations Charter.
It was thought that Y2K would PRESENT an excellent opportunity to move the U.S. and the world into "official" world government; also put into effect all of President Clinton's Executive Orders; and cause starvation in third and fourth world countries.
In view of the FACT that the lights never went out on December 31, 1999, WHAT DID HAPPEN THROUGH THE Y2K PROCESS?
For two years the world was prepared to fight a common enemy. We were told if BILLIONS of lines of computer code were not fixed, the world could find itself in chaos. In 1997 Newsweek Magazine printed an article "The Day the World Shuts Down" in which it listed all of the sectors of society - industry, the military, banking, medicine, communications, and utilities, etc. - that are de-pendent on computers. The article pointed out that buildings could shut down, air traffic control systems could go dead, the entire infrastructure could go haywire, military preparedness could be adversely affected, billing systems could get lost, and cardiac monitors in hospitals could get shut down.
On the heels of a growing awareness, two Y2K books came out which became bestsellers. Explaining the problem in a logical manner, Michael S. Hyatt, offered three scenarios based on a survey of 38 computer experts and year 2000 researchers. The results pointed to a blackout or a complete meltdown of the entire system. Plus infiltration into Communist cells had revealed the probable use of the electrical power grids to "blackout" the nation for deploying U.N. or Russians troops into America. Numerous Executive Orders were issued which could shift the power of government to the Federal Emergency Management Agency in the case of a catastrophe.
In response to this seemingly REAL threat, in February 1998 the president issued Executive Order 13073, which established the President's Council on Year 2000 Conversion. The council was comprised of representatives from more than 30 executive and regulatory agencies and charged with outreach into the public and private sectors, both domestically and internationally. John Koskinen was appointed to head up the council. Since this posed a global threat, the U.N. held Y2K conferences in December 1998 and June 1999. They also set up the International Y2K Cooperation Center and a steering committee. They instructed each nation-state to appoint a Y2K national coordinator who would be their country's liaison, the key contact for other countries, governments, agencies, organizations, and corporations.
Background
In late 1998 to early 1999, many concluded that Y2K was going to be serious since it appeared to have all the necessary requirements for a "planned, managed, and catastrophic event" to catapult us from unofficial world government into "official" world government. Y2K was a transfer of the world FROM individual nation-states to a new electronically interconnected world which uses wires, computer processors, and electricity to cement the individual countries TOGETHER!
Joan Veon, who had attended the 35 U.N. meetings said that from June 1998 until September 30, 1999, she believed Y2K was going to be very serious. Her eyes were opened when she attended the 1999 annual IMF/World Bank meeting in Washington, D.C. At that meeting where everything of importance was discussed, Y2K was a non-event - there were NO rumblings or undertones about it. If the "Big Boys" who run the world's monetary system were not concerned, then there was no reason for anyone to be concerned. Furthermore, she realized these same "Big Boys" were not going to go out of 1999 on a stock market that was down, but that they were going to go out on a MAJOR upswing. She then realized that we would have one of the strongest "bull" markets ever.
The Agenda
When there were no meltdowns, blackouts, or incidents of note on December 31, it was declared on national television: "The Y2K bug has been met and conquered." This statement, along with reading Y2K czar John Koskinen's press briefing, provided new insight as to the real agenda behind the Y2K scare. EXACTLY WHAT DID Y2K DO?
Y2K provided a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the nation-states of the world who were not Internet savvy to get wired. TheY2K scare provided an opportunity to transition business and government into a NEW working relationship which complimented President Clinton and Al Gore's "Reinvented Government." It set up an electronic network which is unparalled in all of history. It spurred the economies of the world and set the tone for a CASHLESS SOCIETY, all of which facilitate the ushering in of world government.
When a new house is built, the foundation is laid, THEN the structure and roof added. The wiring allows for the structure to have POWER - "over ALL kindreds, and tongues, and NATIONS." Y2K was the wiring of the house, as the structure has already been built. Y2K provided the EXCUSE to transfer the world FROM individual nation-states INTO an electronically knit world - a world which is now ONE and which includes BOTH governments and corporations - the Great Trust. Beginning January 1, 2000, we entered an electronic world government!
A follow-up question then is: "Were we misled or deceived by our government as to the seriousness of the situation?" Y2K HAD TO BE PAINTED as being serious in order to have sufficient reason to get Americans to agree with Congress that the money had to be spent to repair it - or ELSE. The options were telling America that billions were needed to get the world WIRED, or telling them that we have to spend money to fight the Y2K bug. They knew Americans would NEVER agree to pay billions in taxes to prepare the world for a CASHLESS DICTATORSHIP to enslave us. The Y2K challenge CREATED that unifying desire to "meet the enemy eye to eye and win!" With regard to foreign countries, many cannot provide the basics for their people, let alone spend monies on getting wired. In order for them to justify the repositioning of critical dollars, a global problem had to be created.
This picture begins to make sense when you look at HOW the U.N. painted Y2K. It does appear that Y2K provided a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the nation-states of the world to get wired for world government WITHOUT many of them understanding what was happen-ing. In a speech at the second U.N. Conference on Y2K in June 1999, U.N. Deputy Secretary-General Louise Frechette said in part:
"The Threat. The millennium bug threatens to disrupt finance, trade, shipping, telecommunications, air traffic control and other vital public services such as electricity and natural disaster preparedness. It casts a shadow over issues of peace and security.
"Solution. The International Y2K Cooperation Center was created with remarkable speed following the [U.N.] meeting in December 1998. The number of countries with a Y2K PLAN [to fix the problem] and a national coordinator has risen. New coalitions are being forged among business, industry, governments, and international organizations. Such solidarity [a communist phrase] and problem-solving shows the United Nations in action. Working groups [have] forged innovative partnerships with all available expertise, including the private sector and academia; and it has facilitated the efforts of the Secretariat and wider United Nations family to CREATE AN ELECTRONIC ORGANIZATION. Ambassador Ahmad Kamel [of Pakistan] helped all of us harness the Internet, e-mail and other new communications technologies to our global mission of peace, development and human rights.
"Goal. We must all continue to take advantage of what the new technologies have to offer - for diplomacy and development, for advocacy and education. We must all pursue a VISION of a new century in which all people are [technologically] empowered."
From this speech, it becomes clear that the need to battle the "Y2K bug" was basically an excuse to synchronize the whole world electronically in order to bring the lesser developed countries into the electronic age - a different AGENDA than what we had been told by the American press.
So WHAT did Y2K do? Let's take a look at what was said by John Koskinen at several press briefings in early January 2000.
1. Electronic Network or Brains. Press briefings given in the first few days of 2000 provide us with the real truth of what Y2K was all about - an excuse to wage war in order to integrate the world using an electronic medium which can only further ERASE BORDERS, and make us ONE, facilitating global integration in a new way for a new century.

Koskinen outlined the following ways we were integrated: A) The United States created a $50 Billion In-formation Coordination Center. The ICC is now at the center for state and local governments, the private sector, multinational and transnational corporations, and our federal government to interact on a daily basis to coordinate ALL systems from an electronic basis point. In other words, it appears that the electronic brains of the global system was created in the U.S. to monitor and coordinate all of the perceived electronic problems in the world! The ICC was established, designed, and run by General Peter Kind. It is an information collection mechanism focused on dealing with information from around the world. Koskinen organized more than 25 task forces to reach out to industry groups, corporations, the U.N., and foreign trading partners. He collected confidential industry information to assess the potential Y2K risks (Washington Post, 12/16/99, p. G8). Reports sent to the center came from all government agencies and industry as well as FEMA and the Federal Reserve Board and executive branch.
In explaining the VASTNESS of the ICC, Koskinen said: "What we have [en]capsulated here in the Information Coordinator Center is a unique operation. Communication going on, with ALL of our embassies and national coordinators in countries around the world, all freely exchanging information, which IS the final step in a long process of exchanging technical information and advice [Editor's note: of creation of world government]. We have begun to look at the question of HOW we can build on this sort of unprecedented amount of cooperation and work together."
The USA Today reported Koskinen boasting: "Solving Y2K proved that I can run the world with four people."
B) On May 22, 1998, the Policy on Critical Infrastructure Protection program was released. It sets up the "National Infrastructure Protection Center, which includes the FBI, the Secret Service, the Department of Defense, and the intelligence agencies which are all ORDERED to cooperate with NIPC." We will shortly live in a totally controlled society where everyone cooperates or.
C) Financial markets were coordinated from an information standpoint BOTH nationally and GLOBALLY This will begin to usher in GLOBAL GOVERNANCE that Clinton, Gore, and the United Nations want.

2. Partnerships. Joe Lockhart, White House spokesman said Y2K was successful in getting government working in partnership with local governments, communities, and corporations. In other words, GAIN CONTROL OVER THEM SO THEY CAN DICTATE POLICY. This is in complete agreement with President Bill Clinton's Socialist/Communist "Reinventing Government." He began this partnership of government with private partnerships in 1993. This way GOVERNMENT can merge with EVERY part of society and run it. He tried to MERGE the Social Security Trust Fund with the stock market and was soundly defeated.

There were several other permanent partnerships which were created to fight Y2K. U.S. Energy Secretary Bill Richardson and his Russian counterpart created a permanent partnership in the area of energy (Washington Post, 1/4/2000, p. A13). In addition, the U.S. and Russia created a joint team to monitor Y2K from the U.S. Space Command at Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado Springs. This agreement was set up under an agreement signed in 1998 by Defense Secretary William Cohen and his Russian counterpart, Marshal Igor D. Sergeyev. Ultimately, the experiment will evolve into a permanent Joint Warning Center to be built near Moscow and staffed by officers from both countries.
3. Provided Corporations with a Leading Edge for the 21st Century.
Business Week stated that the Y2K bug ".FORCED companies and government agencies all over the world to get rid of buggy old software and aging hardware and invest in new technology. Now systems are in place to provide a solid foundation for all sorts of new online systems for e-commerce and e-government." No wonder the NASDAQ rose 85.6%. The sales of all the new technology to businesses and governments around the world.
4. Spurred the Economies of the World - An Economic Substitute for
War. The Kennedy administration commissioned 15 men, experts in their fields, to determine WHAT WOULD HAVE TO CHANGE IN AMERICA IF WE WERE TO ENTER A PERMANENT TIME OF PEACE. This top-secret report was published by one of the 15 whose identity is still unknown. Their conclusions stated that we would have to find an enemy OTHER than our fellow man. They suggested the environment. Since war is an economic stimulus, they determined that 10% of our Gross Domestic Product would have to be wasted each year. They suggested a number of ways to waste that 10%: a space program, medical research, free housing for the poor, etc.
The COST to fix Y2K would be more than the cost of any GLOBAL WAR. To fight this Y2K enemy, the U.S. government spent over $8.5 billion, and the country, as a whole, spent $100 billion. In comparison, the cost of the Vietnam War was $300 billion over ten years. The GLOBAL cost to fight Y2K was estimated at $600 billion. Now, we have EVERY SIGN of a global economy emerging.
5. Set the Tone for a Cashless Society. In a society where
EVERYTHING is cashless there will be the eventual elimination of ATMs, etc. When EVERYTHING can be done by telephone or Internet, the next thing to be fully changed is the monetary system so that "NO man might be able to BUY and SELL, save he that had the mark."
What is the BOTTOM line of the Y2K scare? While an electronic system increases production, reduces costs, eliminate waste, and basically makes everything sustainable, it is also capable of tracking EVERY individual, rendering them as nothing but individual production UNITS with value as long as they can produce.
Conclusions
The presented THREAT of Y2K would: 1) require global compliance in ways that companies would never have allowed because of intrusion by government - BIG BROTHER; 2) cause local, state, national and international agencies to interact with each other about disaster relief and other issues which comprised a NEW LEVEL of global cooperation, all of which were needed for global government;
3) present a multitude of problems for which the U.N. and its nation-states MUST find solutions together; 4) provide an excellent opportunity to merge the world's policemen, firemen, emergency management systems, military forces, national guardsmen, etc.; 5) transfer wealth and technology FROM the rich countries TO the poor countries [Marxism]; 6) reinforce the implementation of Clinton's "reinvention of government" at the community level; and 7) equate the expenditures of monies, a goal which "The Report from Iron Mountain" said would be necessary in the absence of war. It appears that all of these have or are happening to further World Government.
On one Public Broadcast station on the night of December 31, 1999, the moderator said: "In a sense, the lines between nations and BORDERS are our own contrivance. As we go from capital to capital tonight to ring in the new millennium, we can see that we are ONE on earth - we are one people UNITED."
In addition to a major rewiring of the world so that we are all on the same "electrical system," the celebrations which we witnessed on television on December 31, 1999, and the comments made by those who moderated it sent a CLEAR message - "WE ARE ONE."
WERE WE HOODWINKED? Absolutely yes! We may have seen the last of Y2K, but have we also seen, very soon, the LAST of national sovereignty?
Everyone seems to be LULLED to sleep by the Y2K hoax pulled off by the proponents of World Government! Notice what the Bible says about it: "For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then SUDDEN destruction cometh.and they shall not escape" (1 Thes. 5:3).
Let's Go Back Into History a Moment
The United States was formed when certain colonies which were totally independent of each other decided to delegate limited authority to a central government. The central government was never to be used to usurp the Sovereignty of the individual nation State - such as Alabama, Michigan and Texas. ALL power not delegated to the central [or federal] government was to be retained BY the States and the peoples of those several States.
The Illuminati, who have been working for world government for two centuries, did not want 48 strong State governments, which has now expanded to 50. It would be more difficult to win 48 or 50 separate States and subvert them for world government, so they decided to infiltrate in SECRET to centralize all power into an all powerful Federal Government. This would emasculate the Sovereignty of the individual States and subjugate them to a Federal Government which would by-pass the State's Rights and the Rights of We the people.
There were many instances where sections of the country discussed secession because of infringement upon State's Rights. The New England States discussed it in 1812. The Middle Atlantic States discussed it but never followed through. Why did these different sections of the country feel open to discuss secession? The first District Attorney in the United States, William Rawle, wrote a textbook - A View of the Constitution - that the Federal Government paid the military academy in New York, a Northern State, to teach its cadets in 1825-1826. The textbook taught that secession was LEGAL if the Federal Government OVERSTEPPED its delegated authority and infringed upon State's Rights and the Rights of We the people.

This is WHY these various sections in the Middle and Northern States felt perfectly comfortable in discussing the possibility of seceding from the Union. IT WAS THEIR RIGHT IF THEY WERE BEING ABUSED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT!!!
Finally, in 1861 several Southern States began to secede from the Union because of the Federal Governments infringement upon their State Sovereignty. In all 11 States seceded. Even Northern newspapers stated the South had the right to do so and wished them well. Abraham Lincoln even advocated the legality of secession in 1848. As president, he bade the South farewell as he was having 7 ships loaded with military equipment headed for Fort Sumter, South Carolina.
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court from 1864-1873, Salomon Chase, stated that with the surrender of Robert E. Lee that "State's Rights died." Did they? How could any Amendment to the Constitution just die without a Constitutional Convention to vote to eliminate it from the document? The only Confederacy President, Jefferson Davis, said State's Rights would rear its head at another time and under another circumstance BECAUSE the issue of State's Rights could not be settled by war. Was he right? Is the issue of State's Rights raising its head again? Louisiana passed in a State-wide vote Amendment 11 (eleven) to their State Constitution which reaffirmed their Tenth Amendment status to the Federal Constitution. They have the right to refuse any law the Federal Congress passes that is outside the limits of the Tenth Amendment. Arizona has voted out of committee HCR-2034 that states they can secede from the Union if the Federal Government were to declare Martial Law WITHOUT the State's consent. They could also secede if the Federal Government tried to confiscate guns and disarm the people - violation of the Second Amendment right to bare arms.
Alabama investigated the threat of the United Nations' Treaty to State's Rights and Sovereignty in 1964. They concluded the United Nations was created to be a direct ASSAULT upon the Constitution of the United States and individual State Sovereignty and the loss of all the freedoms protected by the Constitution.
Senator Jesse Helms of North Carolina spoke to the Security Council of the United Nations in January 2000. He said Americans were feeling that the United Nations wanted to become a Centralized World Government. They would NEVER usurp the power of the United States.
Within days of this meeting, the U.N. announced a scheduled meeting in September 2000 to discuss "Global Governance." They would also discuss a U.N. military independent of all nations. Alice Bailey [New Ager] wrote in her book "The Externalisation of the Hierarchy," that all atomic weapons belong to the United Nations and should be turned over to them FOR USE against any political group or nation or RELIGIOUS group, and named the Roman Catholic Church by name, that resisted the New World Order (page 548). Read Revelation 13:4 & 17:1-6, 15-18.
Clinton CULTIVATING FRIENDSHIPS to Subdue America!
Could an Emergency Management meeting have taken place in the summer of 1999 that involved several State and Federal law enforcement agencies and FEMA to discuss Weapons of Mass Destruction and the role to be played by the local, state and federal agencies? Could this meeting have had speakers from the FBI, BATF, FEMA, US Marshals office, Department of Defense, DEA, INS, IRS, Department of Justice, Department of Army, Domestic and International Terrorism, and several people only identified as undercover operatives?
No cameras or tape recorders were allowed in the room. Special ID was required. A warning was given that the information presented was for the governments planning and NOT for public review or comment. The loyal American revealing this information has done so because he/she did not like what was said.
He/she said the whole training session boiled down to this: The Federal Government has a big fear that the American public has had just about enough of government intrusion into their lives, and they [the American citizens] are at a boiling point. Also, that this whole country is in such a state of anger, frustration, and confusion, and is so volatile, that any spark could set in motion a Civil War that would ultimately DESTROY our government as we know it.
A Special Agent in charge, from the FBI Terrorist Investigation Unit, spoke for almost two hours concerning militia in the U.S. He said there was now over 1,300 militia units in the U.S. with 25 or more persons in each unit. Three new active militia groups organize each year out of fear of the federal government. 400 plus active militias have an FBI agent, paid informant infiltrated into them, US Marshal working with the DEA, or a DEA agent working inside one of the groups. 10% of the militia are prior military. 2% of the militia have the necessary skills to teach combat readiness.
He pointed out that 20% of the militia members are armed to equal or exceed the standards for the regular US military. 20% of the militia members have set targets in case of federal government tyranny, operational plans and a way to execute them. 20% of the militia have education past high school. The federal agents believe that 20% of the militia members will actually pull the trigger IF or WHEN something goes wrong - without hesitation.
With those figures, he went on to say that the government is concerned about the rise in the number of militia who may shoot when they feel it necessary. Quote: "If this number should rise from 20% to 60%, America as we know it would cease to exist. Federal, State and local law enforcement agencies will not have the man power to take on such an onslaught, if armed citizens should decide to make war against the government. Martial Law would have to be declared and the military brought in. This would only fuel the citizens anger and draw the fence riders off to the side of the militia, as they have been warning that this administration has plans to do this anyway. Now don't get me wrong, the federal government has plans to deal with such as this, but America WILL NEVER BE THE SAME."
At this point a question was asked: "Just what plans does the federal government have? And from your comment it doesn't look like State and local governments will be consulted or even included in the making of this plan." The answer: "American government is set up to continue under the most stressful situations. However, we have always fought on foreign soil. No one can say for sure what a civil war would do here. To be frankly honest, this administration has been cultivating friendships to HELP with this, but we will not get into that, I see no need for it, and I am not sure how much I can say."
Those "friendships" that the Clinton administration is "cultivating" are foreign troops UNDER the NATO Alliance of the United Nations and Russian, Chinese and other Communist countries. They have been having "URBAN PACIFICATION" training all across America - Pittsburgh, Atlanta, Anniston [Alabama], Kingsville [Texas], and many others to prepare to fight against Americans that do NOT want to be merged into an all powerful United Nations and lose ALL of our Constitutionally guaranteed freedoms.
The main reason America is in such danger is that most have turned their back upon the One and only true God. Total "repentance" will be required before God will intervene and heal our land. We must discover WHY Jesus shed "the blood of the Everlasting Covenant." "Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the EVERLASTING COVENANT, make you perfect in every good work to DO his will, working IN you that which is well-pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory" (Hebrews 13:20-21);
If the United States, as a nation, does not repent, notice what will happen: ".and sware by him that liveth forever that it shall be for a time, times, and a half [3 ½ years]; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the POWER [military, economic, religious and political] of the holy people, all these things shall be finished ( Daniel 12:7 [last]).
Notice that there is to be an ALL powerful military which will absorb the United States power: ".Who is like unto the beast [government]? Who is able to make war with him?" (Revelation 13:
4);And notice WHO will be targeted for EXTINCTION by this Socialist-Communist system called the United Nations! "And it was given unto him to make war with the SAINTS, and to overcome them: and power was GIVEN him [by Satan the devil according to Luke 4:5-6] over ALL kindreds, and tongues, and nations" (Revelation 13:7).
God would have mercy if REPENTANCE were to be found in the nation: "If MY [God's] people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and PRAY, and SEEK my face, and TURN [repent] from their wicked ways; THEN will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land" (2 Chronicles 7:14). Since America is not and will not turn back to God, then God has provided a "place" of protection for His TRUE SAINTS.

"And when the dragon [Rev.12:9 identifies this dragon as the unseen spirit in rebellion to God - Satan the devil] saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman [ISRAEL] which brought forth the man child. And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, INTO HER PLACE, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time [exactly 3 ½ years as Daniel 12:7 stated], FROM the face of the serpent. And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood . And the EARTH helped the woman; and the earth opened up her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the REMNANT of her seed, which KEEP the commandments of God, and HAVE the testimony of Jesus Christ " (Revelation 12:13-17).

Will you be one of those who repents and seeks that protection? Someone of earth today knows the truth of this matter! "Surely the Lord God will do NOTHING, but he revealeth his secret unto HIS SERVANTS THE PROPHETS" (Amos 3:7). Jesus, the Christ, told His followers to WATCH world events, so they would truly know the approximate time of His return and the providing of Divine Protection during that 3 ½ year time period. Note His instructions: "WATCH ye therefore, and PRAY always, that ye may be ACCOUNTED WORTHY to ESCAPE all these things that SHALL COME TO PASS, and to stand before the Son of Man" (Luke 21:36).

And as ut was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark [believers consider this to be the Rapture. Noah was a god-fearing man and followed God's advice in spite of ridicule when he built the ark on dry land], and the flood came, and destroyed them all [believers believe that the flood represents the tribulation [the Day of the Lord] which comes like a thief in the night]. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed." (Luke 17:26 - 30) Believers know the Lot's story. Angels brought Lot and his family out of Sodom before it rained fire.

What did believers have to do to gain salvation and qualify for the Rapture? They had to simply accept their inheritance which God the Son, Christ Jesus, is offering them and everyone who believes.

Jesus Christ, God the Son, purchased every human being who ever lived with His blood. He literally let His life-giving blood flow out of His veins to give believers life eternal in God's kingdom.

Humanity has lived in sin since Adam and Eve. Because of sin all humanity has to die. God Himself came to earth to take the sin upon Himself to deliver us from death because we couldn't do it.

The New Testament is a literal testament of Christ Jesus. It states that believers are to receive Jesus' inheritance. He wishes to share it with us, His believers, His Church, His Bride. Jesus Christ, God the Son, had to pass away so we could inherit it.

When believers realize what God the Son did for them, they come to life spiritually and realize their sinful past and feel much sorrow and repentance but also great joy in anticipation of their eternal life with Christ Jesus.

In honor of this great privilege they begin to walk with Him by studying the Bible and learn His ways so they can tell others the great news. They were also continually praising and blessing God. Amen.
