• Are you claiming Moses is still in the ground, although he spoke with Jesus long after his death? According to scripture, Enoch and Elijah acended to heaven. Jesus talked to Elijah long after his death too.

    In John 3:13 Jesus was talking about teachers on earth who have never been to heaven. No one living on earth at that time, had ever been to heaven. Jesus pointed out that he was from Heaven and knows all about it, they don't.

    You are also assuming that our perception of time is the same for the dead and Heaven. Time is obviously a physical construct created by God that changes depending on your velocity and the strength of the gravitational field you are in. It has been proven without a doubt this is true using high precision clocks. Time is physical, not spiritual. Space is a physical construct too. It is not what is left when there is nothing else, it is something in itself. If it was nothing, it could not be bent. It was proven long ago that space is bent by gravity using photographs of the stars around a full solar eclipse with a telescope.

    It is very evident in the Bible that there are people who have passed on that are in heaven. I would argue that all saints who have passed on are in heaven and they are waiting in the grave, both.

    Revelation 14:9-11

    9 A third angel followed them and said in a loud voice: “If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives its mark on their forehead or on their hand, 10 they, too, will drink the wine of God’s fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. They will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb. 11 And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.”

    Revelation 20:10-15

    10 And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever. 11 Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. The earth and the heavens fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what they had done. 14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. 15 Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.

    2 Thessalonians 1:5-10

    5 All this is evidence that God’s judgment is right, and as a result you will be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering. 6 God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you 7 and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels. 8 He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. 9 They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might 10 on the day he comes to be glorified in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you.

    Mark 9:42-48

    42 “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them if a large millstone were hung around their neck and they were thrown into the sea. 43 If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go into hell, where the fire never goes out. [44] [a] 45 And if your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two feet and be thrown into hell. [46] [b] 47 And if your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell, 48 where

    “‘the worms that eat them do not die,
    and the fire is not quenched.’[c]

You make the claim that what you believe are cold, hard facts, but your claims do not reconcile with other scripture.
    Some cold, hard facts about the heaven and hell doctrine of modern churches and how neither of these ideas,about going to either place is actually supported in your Bible.

    Nobody has ever gone to heaven...

    John 3:13 (NIV)
    "No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven—the Son of Man."

    The dead sleep in the dust of the earth, in their graves until the resurrection when Jesus returns...

    Daniel 12:2 (NIV)
    Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt.

    The dead are in their graves when Jesus returns...

    John 5:28-29 (NIV)
    "Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice and come out—those who have done what is good will rise to live, and those who have done what is evil will rise to be condemned."

    The dead will be raised back to life at the last trump (which is at the end of the tribulation when Jesus returns)...

    1 Corinthians 15:52 (NIV)
    in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, THE DEAD will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.

    The dead have no thoughts, they know nothing...

    Ecclesiastes 9:5 (NIV)
    For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing;

    Jesus rules out of Jerusalem. Not in heaven...

    Zechariah 14:16 (NIV)
    Then the survivors from all the nations that have attacked Jerusalem will go up year after year to worship the King, the Lord Almighty, and to celebrate the festival of tabernacles.

    We rule over the nations on Earth with Him...

    Revelation 2:26 (NIV)
    To the one who is victorious and does my will to the end, I will give authority over the nations

    As for the wicked, they will be destroyed (PERISH) by fire, they don't get eternal life, so it kills them and this time, they are reduced to ashes and stay dead, never to live again.

    Malachi 4:1-3 (NIV)
    "Surely the day is coming; it will burn like a furnace. All the arrogant and every evildoer will be stubble, and the day that is coming will set them on fire," says the Lord Almighty. "Not a root or a branch will be left to them. But for you who revere my name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its rays. And you will go out and frolic like well-fed calves. Then you will trample on the wicked; THEY WILL BE ASHES under the soles of your feet on the day when i act," says the Lord Almighty.

    The lake of fire is THE SECOND DEATH... death is death, it is not eternal life...

    Revelation 21:8 (NIV)
    "But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. THIS IS THE SECOND DEATH."

    It is extremely blasphemous to claim that God would horribly torture someone on fire for all eternity. And it is obviously proven false when scripture clearly states that ONLY THE RIGHTEOUS get eternal life. Not the wicked!

    John 3:16 (NIV)
    For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

    Now look up the word PERISH online, it means to be utterly destroyed, not live forever. Death is death, it is not eternal life on fire or otherwise.

  • THE MATRIX REVEALED: THE ILLUSION OF CHOICE PART 2A:
    PEELING BACK THE LAYERS – EXOTERIC DECEPTION

    I'm sharing this because he is absolutely correct!
    You have only a few choices to make here!

    You can remain "in the matrix" and be blissfully unaware of everything, and a sucker!

    You can become a #Truther and seek more worldly "knowledge," which isn't necessarily a bad thing.... And fight for Freedom and Justice, also not necessarily a bad thing.....

    Then you've got those who "Seek forgiveness, get saved, and repent"

    The ONLY winners here will be group 3!

    Now I'm NOT claiming that you should not seek knowledge
    and fight for freedom and justice!

    I'm just saying that it should be SECONDARY!

    Put your Faith in YHWH!
    Walk in His ways and obey His Laws....
    And then you can do all that other stuff with confidence!

    I heard an Eric Dubay post this morning, where he's "Speaking hard, proud things" towards the Most High! I respect Eric's knowledge about the TRUE SHAPE OF EARTH...

    But he just shot himself in the head spiritually!
    If you wanna travel that Gnostic path, you go right ahead!
    We'll see how that works out for you

    As for me, I'll be serving the Father as I walk in the #Truth!
    (which I obtain from Him!)

    There's nothing wrong with trying to change the world around you for the better! But YOU must "Be the change you seek" so to speak!

    You want the world to be a better place, filled with nicer people?
    MAKE the world a better place by BEING one of those nicer, people with morals!

    YOU must be the change you seek!
    And TRUST IN HIM and celebrate HIM in everything you do!
    Spread the TRUTH of His word and walk in his ways, follow the Commandments!

    THEN you are on the winning team!

    The "Blue Team" is #Satan's Team
    The Red Team is Lucifer's Team
    Bottom line.... these are the SAME TEAM!

    REAL KNOWLEDGE should lead you to the TRUTH of YHWH's word!

    If it hasn't done that for you.... Maybe that knowledge isn't the "REAL KNOWLEDGE" that you think it is!

    Eric Dubay was useful...... until he wasn't
    And that is just like ALL Flat Earth guys and gals!

    If you have not discovered the the TRUTH of YHWH's word.......
    Then the TRUTH you discovered about the Flat Earth is useless!

    A lot of these guys toss some Gnostic BS in their FE videos and we must use our discernment when watching any of them!

    I love the TRUTH, but the truth is that very few have discovered real truth! The real truth is.... YHWH is the TRUTH!

    So if you THINK you've found "truth" and you have not found YHWH..... I suggest that you keep looking!

  • Are you too smart to learn anything new?
    Do you ALREADY "know it all?"

    Well..... providing you answered "No" to those questions......
    I'd make time to check out the videos on this page!
    Biblical #Evidence of the true sabbath day!
    (And it's NOT Saturn's Day)

    Saturday Sabbath? Or Lunar Sabbath?
    People in love do everything in their power to please the one they love. This is the natural reaction of the heart that loves. It is not viewed as a duty, but a joy and privilege!

    This is what the true Sabbath means to all who love their Maker and wish to honor Him. At the very start of the world, the seventh-day was set apart as a day to rest and worship the Creator. Those who value the care showered on them by a loving heavenly Father, want to obey Him and worship Him on the true Sabbath day.

    The question then arises: "Which day is the Bible Sabbath? Which day is the true seventh-day Sabbath of Scripture?" There are many different, widely-held beliefs regarding when to worship. Three of these views are as follows:

    Many people believe that there is no need for a specific day of rest since Yahuwah should be worshipped every day.
    Saturday sabbatarians believe that because Saturday is the last day of the modern seven-day week, it must be the true seventh-day Sabbath. Because modern weeks cycle continuously, they believe Saturday has come down uninterrupted from Creation as the true seventh-day Sabbath.

    Still others believe that an accumulation of Biblical and historical evidence reveals that the true Sabbath can only be found by using the luni-solar calendar used in Bible times.

    While it is true that one should worship every day, the sovereign of the Universe Himself expressly commanded that on the seventh-day, labor is to be set aside and special time spent with Him.

    The Sabbath is not just a day of worship. It is also specifically a day of no labor. Yahuwah even stated that the Sabbath is a sign between Himself and His children forever. This article will consider the evidence for whether the true Sabbath is a "Saturday Sabbath" or what is called a "lunar Sabbath."

    "There is no excuse for anyone in taking the position that there is no more truth to be revealed, and that all our expositions of Scripture are without an error. The fact that certain doctrines have been held as truth for many years . . . is not a proof that our ideas are infallible. Age will not make error into truth, and truth can afford to be fair. No true doctrine will lose anything by close investigation." Counsels to Writers and Editors, p. 35

    For all who want to know truth, there comes a time when the way divides. Personal prejudice, tradition and preconceived ideas should have no standing in the mind of one wanting to know "the Truth, the whole Truth and nothing but the Truth." If the seeker for truth will study with an open mind, being willing to obey what is revealed if he is convicted that it is truth, then truth will be revealed to his mind and he need not remain in error. This is what is required of all who would study the subject of the true Bible Sabbath.

    Scripture reveals that the entire conflict between the Creator and Satan is contained in the battle over worship. It is a war for the mind of every man, woman and child alive today. Therefore, it would be wise for everyone on earth to examine this subject for themselves. All should study and know for sure whether the true day of worship is a Saturday Sabbath or a Lunar Sabbath.

  • Rules for Radicals recommends mostly working within the system—though in the twisted way Machiavelli is reputed to have done (whether or not he’s been interpreted fairly). Below, you’ll find Alinsky’s list of 13 “Rules for Radicals,” offered with his proviso that political activism cannot be a self-serving enterprise: “People cannot be free unless they are willing to sacrifice some of their interests to guarantee the freedom of others. The price of democracy is the ongoing pursuit of the common good by all of the people.”
    1. “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.” Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people. “Have-Nots” must build power from flesh and blood.
    2. “Never go outside the expertise of your people.” It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone.
    3. “Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.” Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty.
    4. “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules.
    5. “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.
    6. “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.” They’ll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. They’re doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones.
    7. “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.” Don’t become old news.
    8. “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new.
    9. “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.” Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist.
    10. “The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.” It is this unceasing pressure that results in the reactions from the opposition that are essential for the success of the campaign.
    11. “If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.” Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog.
    12. “The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.” Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem.
    13. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions.
    Rules for Radicals recommends mostly working within the system—though in the twisted way Machiavelli is reputed to have done (whether or not he’s been interpreted fairly). Below, you’ll find Alinsky’s list of 13 “Rules for Radicals,” offered with his proviso that political activism cannot be a self-serving enterprise: “People cannot be free unless they are willing to sacrifice some of their interests to guarantee the freedom of others. The price of democracy is the ongoing pursuit of the common good by all of the people.” 1. “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.” Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people. “Have-Nots” must build power from flesh and blood. 2. “Never go outside the expertise of your people.” It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone. 3. “Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.” Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty. 4. “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules. 5. “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions. 6. “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.” They’ll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. They’re doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones. 7. “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.” Don’t become old news. 8. “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new. 9. “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.” Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist. 10. “The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.” It is this unceasing pressure that results in the reactions from the opposition that are essential for the success of the campaign. 11. “If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.” Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog. 12. “The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.” Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem. 13. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions.

  • You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink the Kool-Aid.
    You can force a man to obey, but true ownership is when he's not afraid!
