INDEPENDENCE... FOR YOU??
















"Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD...Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that FEAR HIM, upon them that hope in His Mercy" (Psalm 33:12,18).
.k
 "Proclaim LIBERTY throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof" (Leviticus 25:10 as inscribed on the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia)


INDEPENDENCE

. One of America's greatest historic foundational documents, The Declaration of Independence, was approved on July 4, 1776 by the Continental Congress and signed by John Hancock in the city of Philadelphia. George Washington said that The Declaration marked “an experiment on the practicability of republican government, and with what dose of liberty man could be trusted for his own good.” The independence in this American republic was to be free from foreign control, free to follow and to find its dependence upon God.


DEPENDENCE

. What we forget is that, in declaring independence from an earthly power, our forefathers made a forthright declaration of DEPENDENCE UPON ALMIGHTY GOD. The closing words of this historic document solemnly declare: “With a firm RELIANCE on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.” Fifty-six men placed their names beneath that pledge and they lived up to it. They personally paid a great price for the freedoms we now enjoy.

TRUE FREEDOM
.
Our country was founded upon the basis of an idea — LIBERTY. It was not to be a FREEDOM FROM GOD which always leads to license and ultimate slavery but rather a FREEDOM BUILT UPON GOD AND HIS WORD. Freedom is not free but must be earned anew by each succeeding generation. “Liberty without obedience is confusion. Obedience without liberty is slavery” (William Penn). Rights without responsibility are the seeds of anarchy (disorder, violence). The issue is not freedom from want, war, etc. but the issue is freedom to work, worship, buy, sell, to succeed, to fail, etc.

TERRIBLE
.
“Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin” (John 8:34). America today is experiencing the effects of FORGETTING the God of our Fathers. We need to be reminded of a solemn warning that God gave to another great nation which had just been declared independent from bondage to another nation. Although written over 3,000 years ago it applies to modern America today: “What nation is there so great, that hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day? Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou FORGET the things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life: but teach them thy sons, and thy sons' sons...Then beware lest thou FORGET the LORD, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage...And it shall be, if thou do at all FORGET the LORD thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish. As the nations which the LORD destroyeth before your face, so shall ye perish; because ye would not be obedient into the voice of the LORD your God” (Deuteronomy 4:8-9; 6:12; 8:19-20).

“Righteousness exalteth a nation: but SIN is a reproach to any people” (Proverbs 14:34). “For the WAGES of SIN is death; but the gift of God is eternal LIFE through Jesus Christ our Lord” (Rom. 6:23). “If the Son therefore shall make you FREE, ye shall be FREE INDEED” (John 8:36) “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, YOU WILL BE SAVED" (Romans 10:9).

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

Andy Griffith - Heaven or Hell?

Dear friends, I saw this post and wanted to share this with our readers and give the credits to the "In Whom We Have Redemption Blog". Please be sure to check out their site!


Anytime a famous person's death is published in the news, the first thought I have is, Did their eternal soul go to heaven or hell? Admittedly, I only know that I am saved and going to heaven and I cannot possibly know about anyone else.

However, I do know from the Bible that worldly fame can't take anyone to heaven.

The only one who can save is Jesus Christ. By faith in Him you can be saved, guaranteeing you a place in heaven for all eternity, regardless of your popularity, talent, or wealth.

Did Andy Griffith ever place his faith for salvation in Jesus Christ and Him alone? Only he and God know that. Of course we saw Andy Griffith play likeable, kind, and decent characters on television for many years, but those are of course just TV characters and nothing more. One thing is certain, the only thing that matters to Andy Griffith now is his relationship with Jesus Christ.

This is what the Bible says about how to be saved:

  • John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
  • John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
  • Romans 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
  • Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
  • Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
  • Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
  • Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
  • Acts 16:31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved ...
  • Hebrews 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
  • John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
Being world-famous doesn't save anyone from Hell. Having a fortune in worldly wealth doesn't purchase a place in heaven.
.
God is not impressed with worldly fame, great riches or professional talent.

God sent His only begotten Son Jesus to die on the cross to pay for Andy Griffith's sins. God offered him the free gift of eternal life, if only he would believe on Jesus Christ and call out to Him for salvation. God gave Andy Griffith 86 years to accept the free gift of eternal life.

Did he ever receive Jesus as his personal Saviour? If not, it is eternally too late for him.

But it is not yet too late for you.

America - Condition Critical 236 Years After Our Founding

In the last year 3 1/2 years we have seen what remains of our American Judeo/Christian culture literally wiped out. Socialism and the secularization of America is now dominant in our media and culture. What is also quite alarming is that even those who profess to be “Christians” are being led astray by this change and are being seduced by the subtle doctrines of fallen angels (demons). This demonic and godless kool aid is so subtle and bewitching that it has made even so called professing “Christians” drunk and numb to the realities of this world as stated in Almighty God's infallible Word (Matt. 24:4, 1 Tim. 4:1-3, 2 Tim 3:1-7). These have taken their eyes off of the realities of time and ETERNITY and have become subjectively numb and oblivious to the very hour in which we are presently living. These "Christians" have put much, if if not all of their human efforts and energies into trying to save a sinking and doomed Titanic, all the while neglecting to proclaim the life saving "rescue boat" of grace of the glorious Gospel to its doomed passengers (John 3:16-17, Acts 16:30).

We are now living in a new era of time called post Judeo/Christian America.
,
The believing evangelical church of America today has been so distracted by Washington politics that it has neglected the REALITY that the Kingdom of Heaven is at our very door! Of course as believers we should do our part as American citizens to give our voice etc., but that day is far past us. We are now living in a new era of time called post Judeo/Christian America. What is most alarming is the hopeless spirit of fear, anxiety and worry that seems to have possessed and clouded the evangelical Christian's vision to a point that they are in a subjective slumber to the realities of the day and hour in which we live (Rom. 13:11, Eph. 5:14, 1 Thess. 5:6, 1 John 2:18, Rev. 3:2). Wake up beloved, oh thou that sleepest (Rom. 13:11, Eph. 5:14, 1 Thes 5:6)! The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand! This is why the exponential and overwhelming national and global calamities are present.

What is most horrifying is the secular indoctrination of godless relativism and lawless tolerance – which has been spreading like wild fire and many Americans (including so called ‘Christians”) are eating it up and love it so (Rev. 3:14-19).

The 2010 election victories of moderate and weak conservatives showed that we are to far gone as a nation to overturn the last 75 years of ingrained secularization and socialism, let alone the current Obama and the Progressive Left secular agenda without blood in the streets from the secular socially dependent Americans. These shallow victories could only slow down for a few moments what MUST eventually be. America WILL implode under it s own godless and decadent immoral weight and fiscal irresponsibility. Nothing can stop that now, NOTHING! The U.S.S. Titanic is sinking and nothing can stop it from going under! We are at the point of NO RETURN. The END of America is at hand and GLOBAL tribulation is at the door step! (SEE CHART LINK)

236 years after our nation's birth we are in the hospice unit in critical condition as a nation and ALL of our founder's warnings have been fulfilled.
,
.As "we as a nation" passes into oblivion, may Almighty God and His Word be your total source for consolation and optimistic reality for today's crisis. Have FAITH in Almighty God America! He alone is able to deliver one from the poisons and corruption that dominate and infest this fallen world (Gal 1:4). My beloved, invest in ETERNITY, not in the few futile seconds of this vain life (Eccl 1:1-3). ETERNITY is where our sights should be set. ETERNITY is our future home (Isa. 65:17, 1 Cor. 2:9, Rev. 21,22:1-5). It is crucial today to be able to distinguish between these two perceptions.

236 years after our nation's birth we are in the hospice unit in critical condition as a nation and ALL of our founder's warnings have been fulfilled.

If you personally know the Lord Jesus as your Lord and Savior, may you be redeeming these days; for they are indeed evil (Eph. 5:16). May we all - that know the Lord in spirit and truth - dedicate this New Year whole heartedly to Him for His glory and honor (1 Cor. 10:31, Col 3:17, 1 Peter 4:11). May pointing people to a saving knowledge of the Savior be priority one! My beloved, keep focused and looking for the Savior's soon return… for the Kingdom of Heaven is truly at hand!

Warning! Egypt and the U.N. Don't Mess With Israel!









We are presently at a time when we are constantly seeing Israel’s border enemies ever more emboldened to stir up strife and lash out against Israel. We have now just witnesses the demonic rage towards Israel by the Islamic Brotherhood that has taken over the country of Egypt. As Israel sees it self ever alone in this big bad evil world DO NOT expect them to just idly sit by and watch their nation be wiped off the map of planet earth. With Iran ever breathing threats at Israel and Israel's border enemies doing like wise, the tentisons are high in the Middle East and in the world. We as Bible believers know without a shadow of a doubt that Almighty God has GREAT things for Israel but until they believe they will find that they are all alone in Satan's big bad Israel hating world (Zech. 12:2-3, 13:8-9, 14:2-3)!
.
WARNING Egypt! Don't Mess with Israel!

Just in the last few days alone we have seen Gaza who have ties with Egypt lauch countless rockets into Israel seeking to bait her into war and provoke Israel to engage them and rally world opinion and its leaders against them. Israel’s border enemies - especially the Palestinian people - sadly are nothing but the pawns and victims of the anti Semitic Arab nations, Iran and Russia.  These weaker Islamic nations are more than willing to heed these voices and are rabidly chomping at the bit to destroy Israel and occupy Israel’s land.

Under Obama and the progressive Left we have seen America forsake Israel and thrown her under the Middle East Islamic bus.

Also - as of late- we have seen the world led by the United States seeking to strip from Israel it present day borders and bullying them into a forced agreement with those who absolutely abhor them and seek their utter destruction. Sadly, America has always been Israel’s strongest ally, but at present - under Obama and the progressive Left - we have seen America forsake Israel and thrown her under the Middle East Islamic bus. With an anti-Israeli Europe and now a current anti-Israeli U.S. administration, Israel’s back is totally up against the wall and they know it.

Let me give a most solemn warning to ALL NATIONS of the EARTH, DON'T MESS WITH THE APPLE OF ALMIGHTY GOD'S EYE.

May I - a gentile - who personally knows the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob through my saving relationship to the Messiah of Israel as the Holy Scriptures dictate (Psalm 110:1, Isa. 53, John 1:12, 3:16-17) - give a most solemn warning to ALL NATIONS of the EARTH. DON'T MESS WITH THE APPLE OF ALMIGHTY GOD'S EYE (Gen. 12:3, Zech. 2:8)!! Even though Israel - at this moment - is OUT OF THE WILL of God, they STILL represent Almighty God's future plan and promises for the nations of the world under Jesus (i.e., Salvation) Messiah in the Kingdom Age and for ETERNITY (Isa. 11:1-10, Micah 4:1-3, Zech 12:8-14, 13:1, 14:1-4, Rom. 9-11, Rev. 1:7, 20:6).

When the present world which we are living in is becoming more and more hostile and aggressive towards Israel, DO NOT expect to see Israel idly stand by and let the world decide their fate and eradicate them from off of the face of the earth. Israel is a military might in that region with nukes and is armed to the teeth. As the world continues its anti-Semitic agenda they will one day choose to look the other way and allow Israel’s enemies in that region to grossly cross the line with Israel. It will BE THEN that Israel - in the reaction of self defense and national survival – WILL FINALLY strike back with great fury and military might. It will be at this time that Israel will TOTALLY institute the "Limbaugh Doctrine" against their border enemies and absolutely secure their borders. They will obliterate and wipe out their border enemies unto the point that they will achieve finally complete safety and security (Ezek. 38:8, 11-12). Israel will bring about their “own” peace and the world at that time will be forced to recognize it.

It will be at this time that Israel will TOTALLY institute the "Limbaugh Doctrine" against their border enemies and absolutely secure their borders.

It will be after this time that a man from Europe will rise up, broker a deal and lend his might to a covenant (peace treaty) on behalf of Israel’s greatly DEFEATED enemies. This European leader will enter into a seven year covenant with Israel not from a position of dominance but rather from a position of weakness (Dan. 9:27, Rev. 6:2). The prophetic wheels are in motion to the point of fulfillment. As we look out of our windows, all is being set around us to bring in these fulfilling “End Time” events”.

As we draw closer to that FINAL HOUR, expect Israel’s demonic wrathful psychotic enemies to continue to rage and fight AGAINST Israel and their right to existence in the world (Zech. 12:2-4,14:2-4, Luke 4:5-6, Eph. 2:1-3, Rev 12, 16;13-16), all the while knowing that Israel can NEVER be eradicated - (2 Sam. 7:24, 1 Chr. 17:22, Jer. 31:35-36, Rom. 9-11) and driven out of their land again, even when the Anti Christ wages his ALL OUT war on Israel and establishes his seat there - in the last 3 ½ years called the GREAT tribulation - yet he will still fail, but Israel will abide FOREVER (Dan. 11:45, Zech. 12:2-4,14, 2 Thess. 2:8, Rev. 19:19-20)!

As we draw closer to that FINAL HOUR, expect Israel’s demonic wrathful psychotic enemies to continue to rage and fight AGAINST Israel and their right to existence in the world.

The land of Canaan has been given solely unto the children of Israel forever by Almighty God and if you can destroy the ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS GOD OF ALL CREATION then you can have the land (Deut. 11:24-25, Josh. 1:3-5, Ezek. 40-48). My friend’s, that is what the FINAL battle of Armageddon is all about (Zech. 12:2-4, 14:2-4, 2 Thess. 2:8-12, Rev. 16:13-16), seeking to over throw Almighty God!

It will be at the END of all of these events (seven years to the exact day from the strengthening of the covenant) that Almighty God’s Son, the Messiah of Israel will RETURN from Heaven's glory and destroy the armies of the anti Christ which have gathered against Israel and then He will establish His glorious Kingdom reign for a thousand years in Jerusalem (Isa. 11:1-10, Micah 4:1-3, Zech 12:8-14, 13:1, 14:1-4, Rev. 1:7, 20:6). In these brief seven years, Israel will have come full circle. Finally, it will be during this time of great testing and horrific persecution by the gentile nations under the Anti Christ (Isa. 24:5-6, Zech. 13:8-9,12:9-7,13) that Israel will turn from their godless ways and receive their Messiah and Savior, the Lord Yeshua Messiah (Deut. 4:30, Psalm 2; 110, Isa.25:9, 45:17, Jer. 33:16, Zech. 12:8-14,13:1,9, Rom. 11:26).

It will be at the END of all of these events that Almighty God’s Son, the Messiah of Israel will RETURN from Heaven's glory and destroy the armies of the anti Christ which have gathered against Israel.

It will take the Divine judgment and the natural and SUPER natural ravishing of planet earth and her godless inhabitants (Isa. 24:5-6, Matt. 24, Rev. 13) - which concludes with the final blood bath of the Battle of Armageddon (Zech. 12:2-4, 14:1-4, Rev. 16:13-16, Rev. 19:11-21) - to bring Israel to the place of repentance and deliverance (Isa. 25:9, Zech. 12:8-14, 13:1,9).

My friend, as these events continue to unfold right before our very eyes may you be sure that you know the Savior of the world, King of the Jews and Lord of ALL creation, the Jesus Messiah as your personal Savior. All depends on what you will do with ALL that He has done for you (John 3:16-17, 2 Cor. 5:12-21)!

The Kingdom of Heaven is TRULY at hand!

Egypt's Threats and the Israeli Limbaugh Doctrine















As of today the Islamic Brotherhood has officially taken over Egypt. The very first thing out of their mouth was death and destruction to Israel, to the Jews and that they will take Jerusalem. My dear friends I want to set the record straight for any who might be wondering what will now become of Egypt under this new radical Islamic leadership and the nation of Israel. Firstly we personally believe that if a pre - “Gog” Islamic confederacy (Ezek. 38-39) seeks to attempt in their rage and envious vindictive aggression to take over Israel and cast them into the sea that Israel will then greatly defend herself and institute the Limbaugh Doctrine at once holding absolutely nothing back. Israel knows that it cannot trust the Islamic Brotherhood friendly President Obama and progressives who are at present in power in Washington D.C. Secondly, we are at the very door of the time continually mentioned in Almighty God’s Word as the Day of the Lord. My dear friends and to those of you who may be scoffers, all these things at present are absolutely setting the table for this time period (the Day of the Lord) to commence. For things are ever clearer then could be anticipated. The table is fully set and are just awaiting the guests of the Rapture, anti Christ and then the Four Horsemen (Dan. 9:26-27, 2 Thess. 2:3-12, Rev. 6-19).

For things are ever clearer then could be anticipated. The table is fully set and are just awaiting the guests of the Rapture, anti Christ and then the Four Horsemen.

When the present world in which we are living in is becoming extremely more hostile and aggressive towards Israel - especially of late with Egypt and Iran breathing threats and her border enemies following suit - DO NOT expect to see Israel idly stand by and let the world decide their fate and eradicate them from off of the face of the earth. Israel is a military might in that region with nukes and is armed to the teeth. They have one of the best armies in the world and have been veterans since 1948. As the world continues its anti-Semitic agenda they will one day choose to look the other way and allow Israel’s enemies in that region to grossly cross the line with Israel. It will BE THEN that Israel - in the reaction of self defense and national survival – WILL FINALLY strike back with great fury and military might.

They will obliterate and wipe out their border enemies unto the point that they will achieve finally complete safety and security (Ezek. 38:8, 11-12). Israel will bring about their “own” peace - for a short while until the rise of the Anti Messiah (Zech. 13:8-9, Rev. 12, 13) and the world at that time will be forced to recognize it (Ezek. 38:8,11-12).

My Beloved, Almighty God is Absolutely Righteous!

My friend, for years some of us have prayed vigilantly for loved ones and individuals to come to a saving knowledge of the Savior, only to have these individuals choose to die in their sins and transgressions in the end (John 8:24, Rom. 6:23). My friends, has Almighty God turned a deaf ear to our desperate pleas and petitions for our loved ones? GOD FORBID!!!! Almighty God wants these individuals saved and regenerated more then we ever could. God fully comprehends the entire magnitude of their ETERNAL destiny and loves them more then we ever could with A PERFECT AND ETERNAL LOVE (John 3:16-17, 1 John 4:9, 16). God the Father sent and gave His only begotten Son to meet our ETERNAL dire needs (Rom. 6:23, 10:4, 2 Cor. 5:21, 1 John 3:5). God the Son put on humanity and violently died and shed His sinless blood on the cross for the sins of the whole world to be our perfect propitiation and Savior (Gal. 1:4, Heb, 10:7-10, 1 Peter 1:18-19, 1 John 2:2, Rev 1:5). Oh my friend, Almighty God truly cares. NEVER allow the devil or your own heart and mind to think other wise (2 Cor. 10:5, Phil. 4:7).

God fully comprehends the entire magnitude of their ETERNAL destiny and LOVES them more then we ever could with A PERFECT AND ETERNAL LOVE.

Through out these individuals’ (our loved ones and the whole world’s) entire lives (existence in time) Almighty God has put up the “Heavenly Steel Curtain Defense” and has made EVERY attempt to deliver these godless and lawless individuals (whether virtuous or vile - good or evil) from their fallen state and ETERNAL doom, but in the end these CHOOSE ruin and destruction instead of ETERNAL righteousness and fellowship with their Creator in spirit and truth (Matt. 25:41, John 4:24, Rev. 20:11-15). What is most tragic is that these individuals CHOSE to rejected God’s saving grace through out their entire short “flower of the field” lives and live in a delusion about the ETERNAL realities of righteousness and judgment (Matt. 23:37, Rom. 1:18-32). These - in the end - dive head first over Almighty God's "Heavenly goal line stance" into ETERNAL perdition, ruin and judgment (i.e., into the Hell Zone). Each human being is the sole captain of their ETERNAL destiny. In the end, it is each ones own personal decision that CHOOSES their ETERNAL destiny and habitation. Even Almighty God in all of His ETERNAL love, power and wisdom can NEVER undo one's personal freewill and choice. Almighty God is not a Creator of robots, but of humans which posses a freewill.

In the end, it is each ones own personal decision that chooses their ETERNAL destiny and habitation.


My Beloved, always remember that in Almighty God is NO evil or unrighteousness (Job 34:10, Psalm 116:5, Rom. 9:14). He NEVER can lie (Titus 1:2, Heb. 6:18). He is only LOVING, MERCIFUL, GRACIOUS, LONG SUFFERING and most of all RIGHTEOUS (Psalm 86:15, 103:8, 116:5, 145:17, John 4:9,16, 2 John 1:3)! May these unchangeable truths (absolutes) bring much comfort to our sorrowing hearts doing these times of grief and loss.

“Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right? (Gen 18:25c)”

There are many hard and overwhelming realities to deal with today in this lost and dying world. May we be bold as lions to see these realities for what they are from Almighty God’s Eternal perspective? It is from this Heavenly position that we will be SET FREE from all of the temporal overwhelming realities of time and ETERNITY (John 8:32, 36, Col. 3:1-2).

My friends, let me quote Almighty God once more.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved (John 3:16-17).

My beloved, I do not know how to state anything more wonderful than that! Beloved, enjoy and rejoice in Almighty God! Let him LOVE you as only He can in these ever trying days.

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

Dude, You’re So Negative!














My dear friends and to those of the Ignorant Fishermen brigade, we receive many emails and comments referring to how “NEGATIVE” our evaluation and diagnoses of the current state of our nation and the world in general is. We constantly hear the subjective scoffing such as…”You’re guys are a bunch of defeatist and quitters”. You are a bunch of “doom and gloomers”. You are causing strife and division among “Christians”. “You’re crazy and nuts and who do you think you are to say such things…?” “You are preaching hate” and my personal favorite, “The “god” I serve would NEVER let these things happen you hater and self righteous bigot”. Well… it’s never a dull movement here at the IFB… that there... is for sure… but it’s all good my friends and we are not detoured, for we are extremely confident and bold in the Lord for YOUR sakes and in His precious Word and ETERNAL promises for ALL (2 Cor. 1:20, 2 Peter 1:4). We are not moved by the negative and sometimes downright hate that is lashed out at us, for how could we be when Almighty God’s Word has NEVER been so abundant for ALL to possess and clear for ALL to understand. We can see His prophetic truths of His soon return materializing right before our very eyes which is absolutely amazing! God’s Word burns in our hearts and why should it not?

We are not moved by the negative and sometimes downright hate that is lashed out at us, for how could we be when Almighty God’s Word has NEVER been so abundant for all to possess and clear for all to understand.

Who cannot be saved and read these personal positive wonderful truths of Almighty God for His children and not be moved and inspired! Who cannot rejoice in the ETERNAL salvation which Almighty God has provided for all those who have chosen to receive His FREE pardon and know Him (John 1:12, 3:16-17, Acts 16:29-31, Rom. 5:12-21, Eph. 2:8-9, Rev. 22:17)! Who could not rejoice in redemption’s ETERNAL wondrous plan (1 Cor. 2:9, Rev. 21, 22:1-5)! Who could not rejoice that our sins are forgiven and that we possess ETERNAL life (Ps. 103:12, John 3:16-17, 17:3)! Who could not rejoice in our position in Christ (Eph. 1:3, 2:1-14, Col. 3:1-4, 1 John 4:4)! Who cannot rejoice that we are living in the very days of our Savior’s soon return! Oh GLORY my beloved! Oh Glory! When we allow Almighty God to be Almighty God to us and see things from Heaven’s ETERNAL perspective it is wonderful, for He is EXPONENTIALLY wonderful! We are SET FREE from the ruler and slave master of this world, from the bondage of sin, and the fear of death’s dread sting (Rom. 8:15, Eph. 2:1-14, Heb. 2:14-15). Oh my beloved, it’s all “ETERNALLY” good in the Lord (Phil. 4:4)!

When we allow Almighty God to be Almighty God to us and see things from Heaven’s ETERNAL perspective it is wonderful, for He is EXPONENTIALLY wonderful!

In all sincerity, the IFB’s objective Biblical perspective is VERY positive and teeming with wondrous hope, Words of life and ETERNAL great expectations for all who would receive it (Rom. 15:4, Phil. 4:4)! For my beloved, we provide that for you - an objective ETERNAL insight - which you will NEVER hear or receive from the Rush Limbaughs, Sean Hannitys, Glen Becks, Jim Vicevichs and Michael Savages of the world. They talk of only what they know of which is from their subjective conservative “spiritual” unregenerate world perspective (Rom 8:1-9, Cor. 2:14, James 3:13-18, Jude 1:19). Thank God for them BUT… they can only offer you a subjective worldly perspective without any ETERNAL realities and truths (Rom. 8:1-9, 1 Cor. 2:14) and in the end they have deceived themselves and you my dear friend (2 Cor. 11:13-15, 2 Tim 3:13). They can only offer you temporal optimistic appraisals, wishful thinking and spider web hopes to get you through the evil day and darkened night but offer absolutely nothing about your ETERNAL destiny (Prov. 14:12, 16:25, Matt. 7: 13-27, John 3:36). They bring absolutely no REALITY of man’s accountability to their Creator, desperate need for Almighty God’s saving grace and RIGHTEOUSNESS and the overwhelming truths and realities that the Day of the Lord is at hand! (1 Cor. 2:2, Gal. 6:14, Col. 1:28, 2 Thess. 2:3-12, Rev. 6-19). These dire ETERNAL REALITIES of salvation and the soon coming Day of Wrath, the second coming of the Lord Jesus and His establishment of the Kingdom of Almighty God are scoffed at and dismissed by them as extreme, simple, relativistic “religious philosophies” and the rantings of zealots which have no relevance to our present day or future. The Lord Jesus Christ stated it Himself to a great “conservative and unsaved religious” leader in Israel, “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” – John 3:3.

“Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be? Jesus answered and said unto him, "Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?” (John 3:9-12, ref. also Rom 8:1-9, 1 Cor. 2:14)

The Lord Jesus Christ stated it Himself to a great “conservative and unsaved religious” leader in Israel, “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

If one has NEVER received the pardon of Almighty God (John 3:36), then one is NOT born again and regenerated by Almighty God’s Holy Spirit -, it is just that simple (John 3:3-17, 1 cor. 6:9-11, Titus 3:5, 1 Peter 1:3). Without this regeneration an individual will remain dead in their trespasses and sins and spiritually ignorant (John 14:16-17,26, Rom. 8:1-9, 1 Cor. 2:14, 1 John 1:27). He will continually to be imprisoned in this subjective fallen world under the delusional sway of their tyrannical master Lucifer (2 Cor. 4:3-4, Eph. 2:2-3, 6:12). They cannot no matter how hard they try to fully comprehend the day we are living in and what is at the door because they REFUSE to believe it even though they might understand the basic truths of it (Rom. 8:1-9, 1 Cor. 2:14, 2 Tim 2:25).

As these days come to an end and America is sucked into the vortex of fiscal, social and moral collapse, there is ALWAYS hope in Almighty God… ALWAYS (Matt. 28:20, John 14:1-3, 1 John 3:-12, Titus 2:13)! As Christ removes His Church (via the Rapture) my dear friends expect the world only to get DARKER and DARKER and DARKER… to the point that the world and its inhabitants will tail spin out of control into unimaginable global nuclear war, natural disasters, demonic oppression and possession and the willing worship of the anti Christ and Lucifer himself (2 Thess. 2:3-12,2 Tim. 3:1-7, Rev. 6-16). These horrific and catastrophic days ARE what is heading our way, like it or not, believe it or not. Be NOT deceived my dear friends by the many different voices and spirits that have gone throughout our land (Jer. 14:14, 23:16, Matt.7:15, Col. 2:4-8, 1 John 4:1) Almighty God sent His dear Son to rescue ALL who would put their trust and faith in Him for ETERNAL salvation (John 3:16-17, Gal 1:4). Hear, ye Him!

As these days come to an end and America is sucked into the vortex of fiscal, social and moral collapse, there is ALWAYS hope in Almighty God… ALWAYS!!

The time for unbelief, scoffing and ignorance must be put aside for objective Biblical reality. Hold onto your unbelief and fear if you so choose to but only expect ruin and desolation for your ETERNAL future and in this temporal existence here in time (John 3:36, 1 John 2:15-17, Rev. 20:11-15). May you choose to abandon and cast away your ideals which exclude Almighty God, His Word and His ETERNAL promises for you and place your trust in the Savior of the world! You will be set FREE and you will NEVER be the same (John 8:32, 36)! We here at the IFB can truly testify to that truth and reality. If it were not so my dear friends, well… we would be out fishing, eating, drinking and being merry for all would be vanity (1 Cor. 15:11-22), but that is NOT the case for we are YOUR servants for Christ’s sake in these last days before He comes for us! How can we not be, for we owe Him and we know what He has truly done for us! My dear friend, have faith in Almighty God and join us as we serve and REJOICE in the ETERNAL WONDERFUL PERSON of ALMIGHTY GOD! Only the fool will say no to the wondrous love of the Savior. May you not be one of them. (Eph. 5:16-17)

THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND!
