PEACE PEACE PEACE PM PEACE, PEACE, PEACE! Our Father's Word is fulfilled daily as current events come to pass.

When He told us that the world would cry "Peace, peace, peace" He knew about the events that would take place over those final years. Even as we write, peace talks reach into the deepest wounds to try and end the land disputes from the six day war in 1967 that has continued in the old city of Jerusalem. Is it possible? Only through the divine will of God could the Israelis and the Palestinians sit down at the same table and talk to each other about peace. This should send up red flags to the watchmen as we cross this new benchmark. With the cold war between Jacob (America) and Esau (USSR) dispelled the "city of peace is where our attention is supposed to be. What did God say about it? Let US begin in I Thessalonians where Paul's subject is the return of Yahshua Messiah, Jesus the Christ, to this earth. He is speaking on the events that would be transpiring and even that would consummate the end of this age whereby YOU could know what would befall the people. I Thessalonians 5:1-3 / But of the time and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I write unto you. For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. For when they shall say, "Peace and safety:" then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child: and they shall not escape./ You don't need anyone to tell you the time or season of Christ's return IF you are founded in your Father's Word. No one knows the hour or day, but God said we shall know the season and what did Paul mention as a sign? They will cry peace and safety but sudden destruction shall come upon them. Who is "them"? Not you, but the enemies of God. Are you well aware who "they" are? There are many things that must transpire before that day comes. We know they will cry, "peace, peace, peace", but many events and maybe even a number of years must take place between that and the end. You must have patience. We know from the book of Daniel, Chapter 8 that the Antichrist will come into power peacefully and will "destroy" or deceive many with "peace". So when you see the nations surrounding Jerusalem crying "Peace", praise God! It is a sign, but THERE WILL BE NO PEACE MADE BY MAN [human(s)] for there is only one Prince of peace and He is Jesus Christ. You will see an absence of military war on this earth as a material peace is accomplished. The destruction will come from war of a different kind. Your missiles and grenades had better be prepared in your mind well in advance, spiritually from the Word of God if you hope to survive it. The deceiver that brings the false peace will bring lies, deception, false worship and the great apostasy (the falling away). All it will take is for that one-world system to receive a deadly wound which could happen at a "peace" talk such as the Madrid Framework (Oct. 1991). A deadly wound like the falling apart of the unity of nations that have come together in the safety and protection of world peace. Michael the archangel will cast the dragon (Satan) from heaven and when he appears on earth with his supernatural abilities he will "heal" the one-world government from impending doom. The opposite of peace is war, so if he saves the world from holocaust how many will hail him as the king of kings unwittingly? Fear not he that can kill your flesh, but He that can destroy your soul. And, it will come to a point that you could endanger your hope for eternal life.

I cannot help but take you to the fourth chapter of Jeremiah. Our Father has told us in His letter to us that He has forewarned us about all things that will come to pass. The question is, have you read it with understanding? In covering this chapter put your frame of mind in this present day with the newscasts of the last few weeks and hear the Word of God. Jeremiah 4:1-3 / "If thou wilt return, O Israel, saith the Lord, return unto Me: and if thou wilt put away thine abominations out of My sight, then shalt thou not remove. And Thou shalt swear. The Lord liveth in truth, in judgment, and in righteousness: and the nations shall bless themselves in Him, and in Him shall they glory. For thus saith the Lord to the men of Judah and Jerusalem, "Break up your fallow ground, and sow not among thorns." What have the newscasts said? "Historical Meeting", "A New Era!" And, it truly is! Involving the very city spoken to here. Jerusalem, God's hollowed ground as He told us in Ezekiel. Even as these signs pass in the final generation we are to keep planting seeds. Keep sowing the truth, that two-edged sword that cuts both directions. It is God's Word. Jeremiah 4:4-5 / "Circumcise yourselves to the Lord, and take away the foreskins of your heart, ye men of Judah and Jerusalem: let my fury come forth like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings. Declare ye in Judah, and publish in Jerusalem: and say, "Assemble yourselves, and let us go into the defenced cities.'" There is a great woe coming and people had better hunt for a wall to hide behind. Do we need to do that spiritually? Christ is our wall and we have no need to hide anywhere but in Him. It is a time of spiritually armed conflict. We blow the trumpet. We sound the alarm. We pass the sword that will cut some asunder and bring others into His Truth. Jeremiah 4:6-7 / "Set up the standard toward Zion: retire, stay not: for I will bring evil from the north, and a great destruction. The lion is come up from his thicket, and the destroyer of the Gentiles is on his way: he is gone forth his place to make thy land desolate: and thy cities shall be laid waste, without an inhabitant./ Zion is God's holy mountain and the standard is the flag of Christ. The destruction is Armageddon and Hammongog at the very end of this earth age and is not a threat to those who are true to their Father. But, the destroyer is Satan himself, this is one of his names and he will be devastating the land right and left with his deception. Jeremiah 4:8 / For this gird you with sackcloth, lament and howl: for the fierce anger of the Lord is not turned back from us./ When Satan sets his foot on God's virgin soil, claiming to be Christ, God's anger will begin to boil and will end with utter destruction of His enemies from the face of the earth. Jeremiah 4:9 / "And it shall come to pass at that day, saith the Lord, that the heart of the king shall perish, and the heart of the princes and the priests shall be astonished, and the prophets shall wonder." These are fakes. False prophets, teachers, and ministers that will lead their churches and flocks into following the destroyer, thinking he is Christ. So that the Stone that was the chief Cornerstone becomes the stumblingblock. Jeremiah continues on about these fakes. Jeremiah 4:10 / Then said I, "Ah, Lord God! surely Thou hast greatly deceived this People and to Jerusalem, saying, "Ye shall have peace;' whereas the sword reacheth unto the soul."/ Did God tell them there would be peace? No! Jeremiah 4:11 / At that time shall it be said to this People and

Jerusalem, "A dry wind of the high places in the wilderness toward the daughter of My People, not to fan, nor to cleanse," / /Have you read of the four spirits that are the four winds in Revelation 7 and Daniel 7? They won't bother you if you are behind the right "wall". He is warning Jerusalem and you can warn them today that the true wind is coming. Jeremiah 4:12-13 / "Even a full wind from those places shall come unto (from) Me: now also will I give sentence against them." Behold, he shall come up as clouds, and his chariots shall be as a whirlwind: his horses are swifter than eagles. Woe unto us! for we are spoiled. The subject switches back to the enemy and woe unto those for they are deceived. There is going to come a time when even members of your family will be drawn right into it. Would you follow those that you love so very much, or will you make a stand? It is something to think about because that day will come. Jeremiah 4:14 / "0 Jerusalem, wash thine heart from wickedness, that thou mayest be saved. How long shall thy vain thoughts lodge within thee?" The only way you can cleanse your heart is in the blood of the Lamb. Jeremiah 4:15-16 / "For a voice declareth from Dan, and publisheth affliction from mount Ephraim. Make ye mention to the nations: behold, publish against Jerusalem, that watchers come from a far country, and give out their voice against the cities of Judah." "Watchers" are prophets and they all gather from around the world at tables and give their expert opinions and prophesies concerning the peace. An ambassador from Russia, the American President and many more. Jeremiah 4:20-22 / Destruction upon destruction is cried: for the whole land is spoiled: suddenly are my tents spoiled, and my curtains in a moment. How long shall I see the standard, and hear the sound of the trumpet? For My People is foolish, they have not known Me: they are sottish children, and they have not understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge. How long must this go on? How stupid His children are! The following verses in Jeremiah describe the last time God was so angered. Jeremiah 4:23 / I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void: and the heavens, and they had no light. I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly. I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled. This is the destruction of the first world age! The mountains trembled and God cleansed the earth of all men. This is what happened between the first two verses of Genesis. Noah's flood couldn't even compare to this utter destruction and He is going to do it again, but ... Jeremiah 4:27 / For thus hath the Lord said, "The whole land shall be desolate: yet will I not make a full end." Not all will be harmed because He has set aside a remnant, His elect. Let us finish with the words of Christ. Matthew 10:34 / Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. These are the words of THE Prince of peace. He's not coming to bring peace, but a sword and that is our business. The very tongue, the Word of Christ is a two-edged sword (Revelation 1:16) that cuts both ways. It is wielded by those who develop skill in its use as the most powerful weapon, protection, and comfort there is because the sword is God's Word. His Truth is reality and as it comes to pass before our eyes we must be prepared to stand for Him. Read this

entire chapter in Matthew and it will instruct you in exactly what you can expect from others, even your own family. /It is not a time to fear, but to rejoice. When you see that which is written jump to life on the pages of your newspaper, know that God's Word is true! And thank Him for allowing you to be a part of His plan.
