Our Future, Our Hope, Eternity
What is the Future of Mankind?
by Your servant Dan L Baxley

OUR FUTURE -- ARE YOU READY?

For mankind to have a Future at all there has to be a Creator God.  If there is not then we are doomed, literally doomed to extinction.  Our Hope had better be about a Creator God who has a plan for saving us with a real possibility for Life Eternal.  Think about it.  Science tells us that this Earth is destined for destruction.  We tend not to worry about this coming destruction, either from the Sun or from some out space collision or merely over population and even the possibility for an all out nuclear war.  We live on a fragile planet that just happens to be functioning at a miraculous level of balances and checks.  Against all odds we have the perfect environment for humans and other animals and creatures to live.  We are, in reality, traveling through vacuum of space, on the perfect space ship -- Earth.  But we are not immortals, we all die, sooner or later we die and one day this world is going to die as well.  Again, for humanity to live on, there must be the Hope of a Creator God and the possibility of an Eternal Future.  If you are an atheist or just hate religion (which I am not fond of either) and you are just a denier or a doubter in the possibility of a Creator God then you are going to go to the grave with no Hope and possibly no future either, meaning that you may get what you believe in, and that is nothing.  What if that is how it works?  Thankfully it is not, your personal belief does not change the truth or the facts or the reality of the Spirit.  All deniers and haters, no matter how intelligent they grade themselves, their disbelief has absolutely no force in the reality of Life Eternal.  They can call believers idiots all they want, it will not change the fact that we are living on a miracle planet, and that we are conscientious, thinking, planing, hoping, and loving flesh and blood beings, traveling through Space, with no future at all, unless there is a Creator God, a Super Intelligence with a plan for me and for you and for this Earth.  Just some food for thought as we dig in.

My God Above all Gods
My God is a God of peace and does not need me to fight His battles. One day He is going to come to this Earth and put an end to war and the way of war. In order to make the world follow the way of peace He will shake this Earth to its very foundations, mountains will be moved, Islands will moved and the armies of the world will be brought to nothing – but that will not be the end. Yes, a God of peace, He has no desire for war but men refuse to accept this and make war not only among themselves but against the God of Gods, the Creator and sustains of all things. He will eventually force peace on everyone, like it or not. I do not need to fight for my God in the way men fight among themselves, no my battle is a spiritual one, an internal battle against powers unseen. My God does not need my help in His battles, but I do need Him. This is not the case with many other religions, even some religions claiming the title of Christian. Our God and Savior, YaHshua, has not asked one Christian to force another into submission to their belief or way of living. The Messiah, unlike other prophets, never said we must spill the blood of others in order to get them to submit to His Kingdom. Think about it, what kind of God needs man’s help to accomplish His purpose? My God is not so weak as to need our help. In times past He allowed selected humans, individual, and collective to prove a point – their need for Him. This failed, of course, in the collective realm and the covenant made with the individual, Abraham, ended up being the only covenant remaining in tact while the covenant offered to the collective group of people descendant from Abraham failed, but that is not the end for Israel as it is in the Plan of my God to deliver all of Israel when the Kingdom of God is established at the return of our Savior, YaHshua. I wait patiently for my God to return and for the eventual arrival of our Heavenly Father at the end of the 1000 year rule of YaHshua.

Deceived and Misguided
The deception of Islam is equal to the deception of the Christians as well as the deception of the Jews. Certainly each thinks the other is wrong when in fact they are all wrong. Listen, my friends, when this Earth reels like a drunkard and it shakes as never before it will not matter where you live or who you are rich or poor, you will be lucky to survive these events and if you do you may wish you had died -- many in those days will seek death but will not find it. The inhabitants of this Earth are going to be reduced on a massive scale and the powers that be will be reshaped, reformed, and the greatest rebellion in history, against the one true God, will begin. Forget about what you have read, what you have been taught concerning the end age. What we see today is not going to be anything like what tomorrow holds, into next age -- leading into the return of the Messiah and the Wrath of God. All of the modern prophets of today will be silenced and made ashamed of their own words, words that ultimately led the people to believe in lies filled with half truths. The Word of our God will cease to be preach, like a famine over the world, then will rise the Beast, speaking great things against the Most High. When these days set upon this world great fear will settle in the hearts of men. No matter what religion you profess the suffering of those days will be great. (See on Great Quake)

I am not an historian but I do realize a lot of history is written from a biased point of view and as such is not totally true and this applies to religious and secular scholars equally. No one, however, can deny that Mohammad dipped his hands deep into the blood of his own people. No one can deny that the Catholic Church of Europe washed her robes in the blood of saints and many of her own people. King David, of Israel's history, was not allowed to build the Temple because he had blood on his hands -- he was a bloody man, a warrior, to be sure, but this made him unfit to lay the foundation's of the Temple of the Living God among men -- he had spilled the blood of innocence. Where David differs from the blood thirsty fanatics of today, known as religious terrorist, is David's repentant heart. He had a true sorrow for his sins against His God, a God he knew did not want the blood of innocent and he was cut to the heart in his sins against His God, unlike those that spill blood in the name of their god, thinking they are doing god a favor -- they kill the children of the Creator under the false perception of doing service. This is not a corruption of any single group, all appear to be guilty of this at one, or more times, in their history.

Believe me, those having spilled innocent blood in the name of their god will tremble at the presence of the Messiah when their wicked hearts are laid bare and their wick deeds are exposed. Heaven? Do you dare think you will be allowed into such a holy place as Heaven? You, full of innocent blood and hate, having drank the blood of the innocent -- you believe you are worthy of Heaven, or Paradise?

What of the evil men deceiving you into believing they need your blood and the blood of others in the service of their god? They will not escape in the day of judgement, in that day they face those they have harmed and stand before the Creator in deciding their fate. In their evil deception and hate filled hearts they think the killing of their brothers in creation they have salvation -- how absurd.

Only one Blood can lead to Salvation
I need the blood of only one, and His blood covers my sins that I may approach the Heavenly Father and be forgiven my sins. But you, you who kill in the name of your god, you need the blood of hundreds, even thousands and still you are not satisfied, still you are unclean. My hope is in the one that has defeated death -- the one that has defeated Satan. Your mentor, the destroyer, Satan, calls for more blood, there is never enough. And what of the mothers that in their self-righteous, evil hearts, filled with false pride, send their sons to their death -- sacrificing your sons on the altar of your bloody gods? Shame on you all for the blood of the innocent is on your hands. As the blood of Abel cried out from the ground (the Earth) so will the blood of those you have killed in your land and the land of others. Should your punishment be in less than that of Cain? Banished from the land, banished from the Kingdom? You are not going to any paradise -- paradise will not contain hate. Heaven is not a place of people covered in the blood of humanity -- the Kingdom is not going to be filled with murderers or any detestable, unclean thing. that's right, you having spilled the blood of innocent people are unclean and will have no place in Paradise.

WAKE UP from the deception of false promises, you Christians, you Islamist, you Jews and look on Him whom you have pierced and continue to pierce. A day is coming when you and your fathers will literally see Him whom you have pierced. How much longer will you be allowed to crucify the Savior of the world, murdering Him over and over again? But how have we crucified Him, you ask? By the murder of innocent people, people made in His image.

When Yahshua spoke to the Jews of his days (in the flesh) he pointed to the bones of King David making certain everyone understood the bones of King David were still with them and not in heaven. Even the Muslims acknowledge King David and  the man Yahshua, son of Mariam as special people, a prophet. Most of the Islamic teachings acknowledge Yahshua as a man of peace and they hold him in high esteem, honoring Him as one of the great Prophets -- still, even as some professing followers of YaHshua, continue to murder and hate their brother, those created in the likeness of God Himself. The heart of wicked men, preferring to follow Mohammad into what is perceived as righteous murder. How can there be such a thing as "righteous murder" except in their own deceived minds?

Are any so deceived as to believe they deserve paradise for murder? I suppose there is. Are such men ready to face those whom they have murdered? Can they really suppose that all they have killed in the name of their god were unrighteous and deserving of hell, while they are deserving of Paradise? Can any greater a deception cover a mind so totally as to believe that wickedness equals righteousness? Flee these wicked men that would have you believe such things. Escape from them while you can for it is not Heavenly places they are headed and it is not Paradise they are headed for.

The day of judgment is coming my friends but before that time, before anyone is allowed into any kind of heaven, or paradise, this Earth is going to get knocked silly, reeling to and fro and the whole of humanity is going to think the end of the world is occurring Revelation 6:12-14) - but not yet. We should be getting ready for the big one, two, and three, and perhaps more punches -- and then, and then -- the heavens above will appear to be falling on us, a shower of falling stars the world over and this will be followed by an asteroid the size of a mountain smacking into one of our the oceans (sea?). And soon after that a comet will enter the atmosphere of the Earth and explode raining down a pollutant that will turn all of the fresh water of the world bitter. This will only be the beginning of our sorrows. This is true, this is from the Word of the Living God, these are not my words but His (Revelation 8:6-10). When these earth shaking events occur all of the prophetic book and the faith of religions of today will be seen in a different light, not a time of revival but of further corruption. the bible prophets of today, teaching the rapture and the imminent return doctrines will be seen for what they are, highly mistaken individuals, having no concept whatsoever of the Mind of the Living God. Why? Because they let their own desires get in the way of what the plain Word of God says.

Just before our Lord, YaHshua, actually sets foot on the Mount of Olives (Zechariah 14:4) men will certainly believe that this is the end of the world, hiding themselves begging for a quick death (Revelation 6:15-17). But, will they repent? No, when they see that the world has not ended, that they have yet survived these great calamities, they will gather together to make war against the Christ, perhaps against all religion. That day is called "A Day of YHWH", and also the "The Wrath of The LAMB", and again, ""The Great Day of THEIR Wrath" (Zechariah 14:1; Revelation 6:16-17). Please take note, in Zechariah, the nations that come up against Jerusalem, and for what purpose? To destroy Israel, to destroy truth, to destroy any connection with the true God. YaHshua will stand on Mount Olives in the day He will deliver Israel, not by the power of men but by His power, given Him by His Heavenly Father. My friends, the world, this sphere we call Earth, is going to be changed and the number of flesh and blood survivors may be few indeed -- especially of those that come against Jerusalem. Our Savior speaks of something happening call the "abomination of desolation" in the KJV or "the abomination that causes desolation" in the NIV (Matthew 24:15), "standing in the holy place". This is a significant clue and is something that occurs just before the "great quake" of Revelation 6. (see Great Quake Part 2)

After the Great Quake
The stars of heaven will appear to be falling on earth, as shower of falling stars the world over, this is followed a mountain sized asteroid and then the comet of poison, poisoning all of the earth's supply of fresh water and the much more torment is going to be unleashed, certain angels of destruction that have been held back are going to be released, an army from the Eastern provinces (read about all of this in Revelation chapter 9) will be allowed to invade the pride of the Arab nations, an army of two hundred million and moving in front of them a great death occurs at the hands of the angels of destruction released upon the earth -- one third of mankind survives up to this point, telling us two thirds of humanity has not survived and are destroyed. The massive army is associated with the killing of one third of the population, whether this is an additional third of the some third the destroyer angels are credited with I do not know, but one thing is sure, the earth suffers in an effort to bring it to repentance. After these events the question is raised, Will mankind repent? Looking at Revelation 9:20, the answer is, no.  Of course, all of mankind could drop to their knees and repent, calling on the One who can and would be willing to save them, to save us all from this Future of doom.  That is always possible, but what do you think that possibility is?  What we are left with is a reliance on our Creator to have a way figured out by which some, maybe most, will be able to survive and come to see their Creator and to repent and accept Him and only Him as our Savior.

By the Revelation in the prophetic future, however, mankind will continue to look to saving themselves by the works of their own hands, be it false gods they pray to or literally working to save themselves from their, our, sin and evil ways.  Some will even Curse the God they claim not to believe exists.  

Considering these events to come, while the vain teachings of men seem trite and will come to nothing when the Great signs and the Great Quake rattles around this whole Earth the teachings of men will certainly mean nothing -- the opinion of the greatest to the least will mean nothing. Will mankind repent? When the Earth reels, when the land masses are flattened by the Great Quake, will men repent? Or -- will men be ready to rebel with a new leader an new religion, or no religion?

Who will be saved?  

All those who Call on His Name and how do we know this?  It is a theme of the New Covenant.  Who is the Savior of this New Covenant?  YaHshua, son of the Living God.  He is the Word from the beginning in Union with the Father, He came to this earth to give Himself for us.  YaHshua, the First Fruit of many to come.  It is a battle over names, make no mistake, no one will enter the Eternal Kingdom without confessing YaHshua as the resurrected, Living Son of God the Father.

Rom 10:13-14  For whosoever shall call upon the Name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? KJV

(Act 4:12)  Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other Name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

Act 2:21  And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. KJV

(Php 2:11)  And that every tongue should confess that YaHshua the Anointed is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Joel 2:32  And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the Name of YaHWeH shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as YaHWeH has said, and in the remnant whom YaHWeH shall call.

Zechariah  13:9  And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on My Name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, YaHWeH is my God. (Note: Zechar-yah)

(Rev 3:17-19)  Because you say, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and know not that you are wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:  I counsel thee to buy of Me gold tried in the fire, that you mayt be rich; and white raiment, that you may be clothed, and that the shame of your nakedness do not appear; and anoint your eyes with eyesalve, that you may see.  As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. (When this time of the Church recognizes the true identity of the one and only one that can save, they will then begin to repent and call on Him and only Him)

Act 2:21  And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Act 9:14  And here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy Name.  (Paul (Saul) before his calling was given authority to take captive and imprison those who call on the Name of YaHshua)

Rom 10:14  How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

2Ti 2:22  Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

1Pe 1:16  Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
1Pe 1:17-18  And if you call on the Father, who without respect of persons judges according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:  Inasmuch as you know that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

From the Beginning -- His Holy Name has been replace in your Bible by the term or title, LORD.  In the verses below His Holy Name has been restored.  

Genesis 4:26  And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the Name of  YaHWeH.

1Ch 16:8  Give thanks unto YaHWeH, call upon His name, make known His deeds among the people.

Psa 79:6  Pour out your wrath on the nations that do not acknowledge you, on the kingdoms that do not call on Your Name;  (Think names are not important?  Think again)

Zec 13:8  In the whole land," declares the LORD, "two-thirds will be struck down and perish; yet one-third will be left in it.
Zec 13:9  This third I will bring into the fire; I will refine them like silver and test them like gold. They will call on my name and I will answer them; I will say, 'They are my people,' and they will say, 'The LORD is our God.' "

Exo 3:15  God also said to Moses, "Say to the Israelites, 'YHWH, the God of your fathers--the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob--has sent me to you.' This is My Name forever, the Name by which I am to be remembered from generation to generation.

Isa 65:1 I have been sought, not by those who asked. I have been found, not by those who sought Me. To a nation not calling on My name, I said, Behold Me! Behold Me!

(John 3:18)  He that believes on him is not condemned: but he that believes not is condemned already, because he has not believed in the Name of the only begotten Son of God.

The Name JESUS did not exist when any of those verses quote were written.  The Name our Savior was named Happened around 6-4 BC at His Birth when He was given a Name, by His Heavenly Father.  This name was delivered to Joseph and Mary to Name Him and they did just that, naming him YaHshua.  During the translation of the King James Bible that name was pronounced the same and is still in your bible, JOSHUA -- the J was pronounce, back then, as we pronounce the Y today.  Either way, His Name is nothing like the false Name JESUS, a false name, a true deception.  Why replace His name with a different Name, when His birth Name is found through out the Scriptures, why replace it with a name that never existed until around 400 years ago, while the Name Joshua, that is YaHshua, has existed and been available from the Time of Moses?  The answer, of course, is in the verses you have just read, and if you start reading your Bible and restoring His Birth name to your reading you will find even more.  Peace, Dan
