The Rapture and Kingdom of Heaven are at Hand! That's the Bottom Line!







The phrase, “The Kingdom of Heaven is at Hand,” is the sign-off slogan and repetitive theme of the Ignorant Fishermen Blog. We have used this phrase to confirm with all who read our posts that indeed the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand and that our perspective as believers or even unbelievers is to see the world we live in today from that REALITY and Divine perspective.

Americans today who follow the "game" of politics generally miss - especially in the light of today’s global setting - that ALL things are working towards this end; that the Lord Jesus' Kingdom of RIGHTEOUSNESS is at hand!

If leaders of the American political spectrum - Donald Trump, Joe Biden, Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, Howie Carr, Megan Kelly, President Obama, Richard Blumenthal, Harry Reid, John Larson, Bill and Hillary Clinton, John McCain, Sarah Palin, Nancy Pelosi, Rachel Maddow, Chris Matthews, etc. - truly comprehended the day and the hour in which we live, they would put aside all of their political agendas and ideological differences and unite under and seek after the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Almighty God and preach with trembling fear that, “The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand (Matt. 6:33)!”

They would put aside all of their political agendas and ideological differences and seek after the RIGHTEOUSNESS of Almighty God and preach with trembling fear, The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

If these talking heads of American politics would truly believe Almighty God and His Word, they would comprehend the REALITIES of our day and that of both TIME and ETERNITY. Sadly, most ALL today will not receive Heaven's ETERNAL REALITIES for they are absolute foolishness to them. These all give a deaf ear to the prophetic alarm bells and siren warnings EXPONENTIALLY sounding forth of the GREAT and coming Day of Reckoning (Rev. 6-19).

One’s ETERNAL destiny and future IS NOT rooted and comprised of what is going on in Washington D.C., the United Nations, the European Union, etc... etc... O man, I wish I could convey this WONDERFUL REALITY to earthbound evangelicals who are dreaming of a Christian conservative earthly utopia here in this fallen world without the risen Messiah reigning on earth. We should all certainly do our part to seek the peace of this land and world, but while never losing sight of our ETERNAL Lord, our heavenly country, our heavenly calling and our Lord's soon coming GLORIOUS Kingdom (Dan. 2:43-44, 7:13-14, Matt. 25, Phil. 3:20-21, 2 Tim. 4:18, Heb. 11:16, Rev. 21; 22:1-5). As the day gets exceedingly EXPONENTIALLY worse in every realm and facet of our culture, society, and the world our GREAT and BLESSED HOPE is knowing that our Lord is at the door to receive His own, to deliver us from these vile bodies of death and to be with Him in RIGHTEOUSNESS FOREVERMORE (Rom. 7:24-25, Phil. 3:20-21, Titus 2:13, 1 John 3:1-4).

ETERNAL REALITY is ETERNAL foolishness to them while temporal existence is the subjective eternal focus with all-purpose;

The GREATEST human need IS ETERNAL salvation and the deliverance from the Wrath to come (John 3:16-17). To the absolute majority of this fallen world, our last statement is a foolish fairy tale void of all reality (Rom. 1:16). To the children of darkness, ALL is darkness, ALL is subjective, ALL is relative and ALL is about time (Acts 26:18, Eph. 2:2-1). ETERNAL REALITY is ETERNAL foolishness to them while temporal existence is the subjective eternal focus with all-purpose; all ETERNAL needs pale in comparison for those living in this brief, little, tangible, temporal world delusional mindset. ONLY the ETERNAL saving grace of Jesus Christ is truly the most important in the light of all earthly issues and endless ETERNITY (Eccl. 1:1-3; Matt. 16:26; 1 John 2:16-17). You will surely NEVER find this reality spoken or presented on the nightly news, “24/ 7” news cycle or talk radio. These mostly mock and slander those who believe and testify of it. These truths have no place in their alternative world reality (John 3:18-21; 17:14; 1 Peter 3:16; 1 John 3:8-10).

All political affiliations and ideologies (Left or Right) that REJECT the claims of Jesus Christ and the Biblical message of Almighty God’s absolute LORDSHIP, RIGHTEOUSNESS, AUTHORITY, SOVEREIGNTY, COMING JUDGMENT, CALL TO REPENTANCE and SALVATION are either consciously or unconsciously waging war against their ETERNAL Creator and His ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS Person.

All political affiliations and ideologies (Left or Right) that REJECT the claims of Jesus Christ and the Biblical message of Almighty God’s absolute LORDSHIP, RIGHTEOUSNESS, AUTHORITY, SOVEREIGNTY, COMING JUDGMENT, CALL TO REPENTANCE and SALVATION are either consciously or unconsciously waging war against their ETERNAL Creator and his ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS Person (Matt. 12:30; Rom. 8:6-8; 11:28; Col. 1:20-21; 2 Thess. 2:11). Unbelief and the rejection of our Creator's ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS Person and these Biblical realities have opened the floodgates of demonic tyranny, godlessness, deception, rebellion, delusion, anarchy, confusion, lawlessness, and wrath. The abandonment of truth will ruin and waste any individual who rejects the ETERNAL RIGHTEOUSNESS of Christ and His ETERNAL atonement (John 3:36; Gal. 6: 7-8). Lucifer (the Devil) has a heyday with these people, and like it or not, they are no different than he is (Matt. 25:41; John 8:41-44; 1 John 3:8-10). When fallen humanity abides in the state of UNBELIEF they are Lucifer’s slaves and lawless minions, no matter how much they are either to “the right” or to “the left.” All unbelievers serve his ends one way or the other and in the end, will lose their soul in the ETERNAL GREAT Day (John 3:16-17; 8:44; Acts 10:38, 2 Cor. 4:3-4; Eph. 2:1-2, Rev. 20:11-15).

Many who thought they personally knew Jesus will gnash their teeth when He comes because they rejected His Person in Spirit and truth in favor of their own Jesus.

When all political affiliations and ideologies (Left or Right) are examined objectively from a Biblical point of view, we find that they all have one common denominator: they will NOT receive or allow the sovereign reign and authority of Almighty God and His Word to govern their lives and have preeminence over them. They in some form or another generally dismiss the Bible and reduce it to the mere thought of relativism. These have created an “alternative reality”, an “alternative gospel”, an “alternative Jesus” and an “alternative god” made in THEIR OWN ideological likeness (Romans 1:18-32; 5:12-19). They are deceived, and in their decisions and passions are deceiving others (Matt. 24:4, 11; 2 Tim. 3:13; 1 John 4:1; 2 John 1:7).

The establishment of the Kingdom of Heaven is one of the most misunderstood and least regarded truths of Holy Scripture. No wonder that the Lord Jesus said that His second coming would be as a thief in the night (1 Thess. 5:2, 4; 2 Peter 3:10; Rev. 3:3, 16:15). Many who thought they personally knew Jesus will gnash their teeth when He comes, because they rejected His Person in Spirit and truth for their own "Jesus" (Matt. 7:21-23; John 4:24).

Contrary to today’s popular opinion, the Kingdom of Heaven WILL be established at Christ’s second coming to earth after the seven-year tribulation, when He comes to judge the entire world.

Contrary to today’s popular opinion, the Kingdom of Heaven WILL be established at Christ’s second coming to earth after the seven-year tribulation, when He comes to judge the entire world (Left to Right) for their transgressions against the ABSOLUTE, PERFECT, RIGHTEOUS STANDARDS of Almighty God (Psalm 9:8; 96:13; Acts 10:42; 17:31; Rom. 1:18; 2:16; Rev. 19:11).

The Bible speaks about scoffers in the last days; may you not find yourself in this category (2 Peter 3:3; Jude 1:18)!

Dear friends, Do not look for human remedies to save our day, do not look for human solutions to deliver us from today's EXPONENTIAL global ills, do not look outside the Holy Scriptures to darkness and demonic deception and lies, but seek Almighty God's PERFECT will and TRUTHS for your journey here in time! Our home is in Heaven with our Savior for the Rapture is at hand and soon we will be changed to be as HE is, RIGHTEOUS (1 John 3:1-4).

Signing Off;

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!
