Hello,

Please excuse our dust. We will be doing some work on the site. We have moved our site to a new server and are working out some kinks. We hope to have it all worked out soon.

much love

"Well, after everything is said and done..." Have you heard this phrase or cliche before? It gives me pause. After everything is said? After everything is done? Have we done and said all the Lord has "ordained" for us? Wow! Let's get busy!

"For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." Eph 2:10

much love

We have moved our physical location. We now reside in Washington State (USA) and have updated our contact info. The old address will still be good for a month or two, so if you have mailed anything recently we will get it. But please make a note of it and use our new address going forward. Thanks! There are still several new messages in the works, as well as the "Walk In The Spirit" series I am working on. I have to apologize for the lack of a monthly message. I think it was me setting my sights too high. We go through quite a process to get a message out. First it must be a message we believe is on the heart of God. Then there is prayer, writing, more prayer, reviewing, checking scriptures in context, then when I think the text is finished, Gretchen does a proof & review. Sometimes she does not 'get it' or has some questions or suggestions. So there is more prayer and revising and sometimes the entire message is re-written. It is a constant seeking for God's will and confirmation. Though we are not, nor do we claim to be infallible. It is my personal conviction that a message is ready for distribution when two things happen. One, the Holy Ghost uses it to convict me each time I read it. Two, when my wife agrees with me that it is ready. It is my desire God would give me more liberty when writing messages, especially when I see so many who seem to be prolific, but I will be thankful for the grace He gives. I believe the Terri Schiavo 'story' is a sad & very tragic benchmark for the United States of America, and for the world. Those who were silent are as guilty as the perpetrators. It shows the horror our nation has become and our impotence as Christians in prayer. We need to know that judgment is coming! "The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." 2Pe 3:9 Peter speaks here of God's patience to us-ward. Toward us? Who was Peter speaking about? You and me? Let us spend the time remaining doing the "good works" God has prepared for us to "walk in them." Our time is precious to Jesus Christ. "For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." Eph 2:10 Have you finished the work Jesus has called you to? Are you working on it? Let us be about our Fathers work. Amen! We are here for you. If you have prayer needs, we would love to pray for you. We also hope you will remember us when you are speaking to our Father. Thank you!

To date I have not been given much to forth-telling of the future, but now that I have been blessed with such a horrific vision, I must share what I have on my heart.The vision is of an ill woman, lying in bed, unable to defend herself from the battery of her husband. Her civil rights are being violated, her constitutional protections denied, and the police who are there "to protect and serve" stand guard over the will of men who have lost their minds. A multitude of politicians, judges and hospital workers are divided against themselves: half of them are willing to allow this tragedy to continue and the other half are unwilling to make a FINAL stand to protect and defend the God given right to LIFE, using the National Guard if they must. I see her now continuing to suffer more as she hungers and thirsts. My comments: Where is this woman's right to choose? If she had wanted to die, could she not just give up her will to live? The murderers no longer hide behind the excuse, "it is just a small mass of cells." I saw her face, her hands, her feet. She moved, she is breathing, she can feel pleasure and pain, she is hungry, she is flesh and blood! It is not just that we have allowed a fellow human being to suffer purposely, and not just that we have allowed her pain to continue. But we need to philosophically go back to the very inkling of the thought. How could we have even allowed the conception of the idea to stand so long? Why is it a matter of discussion? You don't deny a person's needs, while the law makes provision for a case to go to the highest court of the land. We have murderers and rapists who receive better treatment than she does. We allow our leaders to grant pardons to criminals, but not food and water to the innocent. These murdering bastards have shown their hand once and for all. They care nothing for the right of choice or life, they want the power to make your choices for you, to choose when you should live and when you should die. They believe in lawlessness, so they may arbitrarily make or break their own rules by whim. It is one thing when sin is hidden, when quietly in the dark recesses of the womb they tear life out. But quite another when in broad daylight, before the whole watching world they dare to flaunt their power to take life. In their hearts they selfishly and sinfully choose only what is right in their own eyes, they care not for the good of others. What will God do now, as our government with its legislative, judicial and executive branches displaying openly their impotence toward the very Law that gave them their power?Our leaders have now shown they will do ONLY that which is right in their own eyes, and God's judgment is not too far behind! If this woman, Terri Schiavo, is murdered by any act committed or omitted upon her from the denying her of food and water, or any other necessary treatment to sustain her life. ... My prediction: The increased Judgment of God upon our ungodly nation. When you train up a child in the way in which you go, they will go the way you trained them. Our government is being ransacked by a bunch of Anarchists who are bent on destroying the Constitution of the United States because of its protections based on Christian ideals. We the people have been trying to throw the bums out through prayer and voting. But those who are still in the system are using everything they can to defile our nation and its people. Most do not understand we are in a spiritual battle, and we are losing.The spirit of Anarchy will overflow from the halls of justice and flood the streets. Openly many will begin to do only what is right in their own eyes; they will declare, "Who are you to impose your morality upon me." There are many types of tea, and soon they will be tossed into the harbor. I can not go on for fear of giving ideas to sick minds, but if Terri Schiavo dies directly from this attempted starvation murder or from any complications because of it, you will see a rise of chaos in our land. God's once very protective hand will be further removed, and what has come in the past will return upon us 10 fold and 100 fold. The paradox: The evil seed planted among us longs to see chaos and anarchy. They will use it to continue the amputation of our rights. But God will prevail in the end . . . it will be the fire next time. "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." Gal 6:7 Return to the throne room of grace. "Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need." Heb 4:16 Do we have this kind of access to our Father? "Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven." Mat 18:19 Do we agree? Can we agree? Will we agree? May God have mercy on our souls if we allow this, or anything like this to every happen! "And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. If ye love me, keep my commandments." John 14:13-15 Let us pray as if it were our daughter, our sister, our mother. Let us seek the face of God, to seek grace one more time, may our Father move once again on behalf of this defenseless one. Father help us, Father help me!

It seems very easy to become over-committed in our world today. With our hustle to keep bills paid and food on the table, and the bustle of hoping to be used of the Lord, other things can fall by the wayside. This web site was one of those 'things'. With the continuing tragedies surrounding us, we can clearly see why prayer and evangelism should be our life's pledge. The constant parade of untimely deaths is a piercing reminder of those who slip beyond our help. Is this the will of God? Or would He have us reaching a bit further? "For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth." I Tim 2:3-4 "The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." II Peter 3:9 "Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest." Matt 9:37-3 Are you His disciple?

Please pray for us, and think about supporting this effort. Without your prayers and support, we will not be able to continue our work on the web.

Thank you.

When you look around your world, do you see things getting better? Is it just me? It sure seems to me the world is growing darker, and for the most part the "Church" is having no effect. Do we have a responsibility here? Is there some way we are failing to be the "salt" and the "light"? Are we praying enough? Do we share the Gospel with the people God places in our path? Jesus Christ said: "... I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." Mat 16:18 We need to lift Jesus higher. I have heard there are places on our planet that were once completely evangelized. I mean the gospel had been heard throughout that land; maybe not heeded, but heard. Now as time has passed and a new generation or two has grown up that have yet to hear the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. The written Word of God declares, "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come." Mat 24:14 Those who pray for the coming of Jesus to be soon: are you doing your part to help bring His Revelation closer?God has entrusted us with His Power to accomplish this task, the Gospel. "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek." Rom 1:16 I believe each of us has been called to change the world for the better. One heart at a time, one person at a time.Let us pray and then do the will of God.

All of us need to continue in prayer for the souls being lost in the Middle East, and elsewhere in the world. Truly we live on a sad planet, and our obedience, prayers and preaching of the Gospel are God's only hope for making changes.

It will take longer than I had hoped to convert all of the material gathered from the old 'Revival Theology Resources'. For all material yet not reformatted and posted, the links now lead to a site where most of the material may be found. As time and energy permit I will continue to format, and one day, the Lord willing, it will be posted.Our main work is ministering through the mail, and we have messages to prepare and mail each month. Preparing the Web site took too much time and we neglected the 'snail' mail ministry. We also have a heart to work with the homeless, to help them physically as well as spiritually. This is to say our time and resources need to be spent working to be faithful to the ministry we have been given and pushing beyond to help those God has called us to. I am disappointed with the lack of participation by visitors to this site. We have plenty of hits, but almost no one is using the Prayer & Feed Back Forums. To date we have one full time supporter of the Web ministry. Maybe there is no need for us to have a Web presence. Circumstance can be one method of God speaking to us, giving us guidance. For more than a year we have been on the web, we have carried between 95 to 99 percent of the costs. No pressure here. If this site is only a pebble on the Internet Highway and won't be missed, we can take it down and use the energy else where. BUT, if you enjoy having us on the Net, if God is using us to bless you, please begin to participate and help to make this the community we envisioned. There are many other features we wanted to add, like a 'real' message board. Even if you can not afford to financially support us, let us know what you think about this ministry.

Thank you!

I hope you are all praying for the situation in the middle east. Pray that no lives will be lost on any side. We need to pray for the salvation of all in the area. I hear a revival of sorts is taking place in Kuwait, seems many of our soldiers are attending meetings. Pray for them to find true salvation, and share Him with the people of Kuwait and Iraq they encounter. Pray also for the Israeli and the Palestinian people and their leaders.

"I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth." - 1Ti 2:1-4

The 'Revival' section of the 'Other Peoples Articles' has been posted. Please let me know if you find errors. We need revival today, let us pray and study and pray some more. Then find people to make disciples for Jesus Christ.

The 'Revival' section of the 'Other Peoples Articles' is under reconstruction, it is quite a large area and is taking some time. "Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God." Rev 3:2

The next area that will be worked on is 'Moral Government Theology'. If you have any comments or suggestions, please leave a note in the 'Feed Back' area found under the 'Contact Us' drop down menu. Please remember our work when you are speaking with Our God.

You are either an active part of the solution or an active part of the problem. "I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:" Deu 30:19 "And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD." Jos 24:15
