Heads Up: Yes, The Resurrection of Jesus Happened

I realize all eyes will be trained on PDT for the current state of chaos. However, it IS Holy Week, which many view as being a wee bit more important.

For Christians, as we continue our march through the Lenten season and the upcoming extreme agony of the crucifixion of our Savior, we also remember His bodily resurrection followed by His time with His followers leading to His ascension. Bakocarl has kept us on task every Sunday with his wonderful insights into the scriptures, so we have no excuse for not knowing and understanding. I pray that he will forgive me if I make statements he intends to make in his Easter Sunday daily.

I feel called to state what is on my heart today. There are so many believers as well as non-believers who are laser focused on the demise of our American, western way of life. Justifiably so in my opinion. However, I am very concerned that many are missing the answer to their fears that exists right in front of them.

The answer is the Resurrection.

Most Qtreepers are in ardent support of PDT’s return to his rightful role as POTUS. Devolutionists say he never left. Others say he was screwed and should be restored to power, which is followed by not knowing by whom or what method that could occur. Why would corrupt legislators, agencies and courts ever change their ways and restore the rightful Republic willingly? Many believe PDT is the answer to our nation’s issues because he says he is and knows what to do to fix it, while at the same time taking every blow the haters throw at him. Even I have stated that he could be doing the rope-a-dope like that of his boxing friend, Muhammad Ali/Cassius Clay. Or not.

Time will tell. We want him to rise up again and vanquish his and our enemies. We desire for him to be restored and lead our nation out of the darkness. It is pretty obvious by how well his rallies are attended and with the talk on every street corner. Real people know our nation is faker than a $3 bill. It is not like we do not know who the corrupters, perverts and murderers are now, right?

My advice is to not forget that he is just a human like us. There is nothing new under the sun. All of the evil and drama you see has played out like this since time began.

Today – On The Ground

If you have not, please read this TGP article linked below as well as Gail’s related past posts and others from economically knowledgable Qtreepers in the dailies.

Awake, yet?

This ^^^ is Biblical, figuratively and literally.

Proverbs 22:7 – The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower becomes the lender’s slave. (NASB)

Our country is a nation of slaves of debt and government abuse. No intelligent or rational human being in America can deny it. Most of the entire world knows it as well. We have been left to dangle in the wind. The above information is real. It is happening, it is not a maybe. This is just one of many dominoes to fall. It completely undermines our central bank fiat monetary system and will accelerate our own fall from grace.

Yet, no matter your view on all of that real world stuff, there is one servant leader, a teacher and healer, who defeated even death who has the authority to change everything. During His time on earth he had all the witnesses and evidence needed to win His case for being the Messiah in the courts of man. Thousands of first person witnesses over years; no body being present in His guarded tomb after everybody on the scene saw Him die a horrible death perpetrated by the state; purported physical evidence such as the Shroud of Turin; and followers who witnessed it all as well as His resurrection, who later went on to be incarcerated and killed for their testimonies to that truth. His haters did the same thing the haters do now – intimidate, steal, imprison and murder.

He chose not to play in their game. He could have called an army of angels to protect Himself. He did not. He did the Father’s will.

Archaeological digs continue to confirm scriptural representations throughout The Word as did the Dead Sea Scrolls and other discoveries. Ancient historians acknowledged His existence in their recordings of history two millennia ago. Some did not believe He was the Son of God or Messiah, such as Josephus. However, they did not pretend that He never existed like many rewriters of narrative based history do today with their cancel culture misrepresentations and lies. If a wannabe historian claims first person witnesses, physical evidence and recorded history near to the time of the events are false without providing verified first person testimony or evidence to make a valid counter claim, one has made a fool of oneself while bearing false witness. In the courts of man and God that person loses the judgment.

We can choose to be certain that Jesus rose from the dead, or, we can choose to pursue a lifelong path to disprove that statement as many have and continue to do through the ages. The Father provides free will to all. He does not require us to acknowledge His existence or force us to love Him no more than He requires us to acknowledge His Son as the Messiah. That is primarily because they are actually One along with the Holy Spirit in the Holy Trinity. Rejection of one is rejection of all three. Three as one, each are 100% God. The choice to believe and act on that belief, or not, is entirely yours and yours alone.

Do not be deceived and sidetracked by the world events of the day. You have one decision that determines your destiny. You will either love, hate, or ignore Jesus Christ. We know about responses to hate, but ask any parent or child who is ignored by the parent or child they love if clarification is needed. It is hurtful and disrespectful. However, it does not eliminate the love one has for the person doing the ignoring (or hating). The choice of ignoring separates them with an invisible wall that can only be removed by the offending person confessing and repenting – to draw near.

James: 4-8 – Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

Attention should turn now to the parable of the prodigal son found in Luke 15:11-32. That parable will make great sense to the Christian with multiple interpretations and applications, yet, it is unlikely to make sense to the nonbeliever. Which is unfortunate because…

We Are All The Prodigal

All of us from the past, present and future until the return of Jesus are prodigals. The events that first started it all happened in the Garden of Eden and have continued on throughout history. Yet, Yahweh loved us so much that He provided a path back to Himself and redemption within His family. He never gives up on us even when we have given up on ourselves.

Now would be the time to reconsider one’s relationship or non-relationship with the Creator of everything. In your hearts and minds you know that what you see playing out in front of your eyes cannot continue this way. The world is getting smaller, more complex and very combative. Corruption, murder, and strife are rapidly increasing. Sexual perversion is ruining lives and families. Truth is totally misrepresented as lies. A day of reckoning is nearing and we will all be called into account in a blink of the eye, individually and collectively. We are not going to dissolve into nothing at our deaths because we did not originate and evolve from meaningless, imaginary space goo. That theory of life’s origin is born from rebellion. We were created intentionally with great eternal purpose by a loving, majestic, all knowing, personally involved Creator.

Choose life. The yoke of Jesus is easy and the burden imposed is light. He has already done the heavy lifting.

Personal Witness

Accepting and following Him has been both the easiest and hardest thing I have ever done. The act did not stop my problems or attacks from the enemy in this world. It actually increased them. I still screw up and am very sure I disappoint Him. However, the love that He shares with me with no justification other than my acceptance of Him as my Savior is a bond that will never be broken, despite me being broken. I could not be happier or more joyous for having done so. In return for my choice, He accelerated my wisdom and discernment regarding the ways of the world and its relationship with the Kingdom of God.

Yes, He has directly answered my prayers. Not all of them as I would have chosen, yet, clearly answered nonetheless. When it happens it is inexplicable in human terms and totally based on His will. It is all in His timing, not mine. I never ask for anything that is knowingly outside of His will and in accordance with scripture. If I do, it is by mistake and he knows my heart. With His answers, there is no direct correlation to facts already in evidence or being able to pass it off as coincidences. Do you understand what that means? It means he is intimately involved in the details as well as the big stuff.

I have repeatedly proven throughout my life that I have no clue what I should be doing, how to act or what to say at times. Yet, I get bailed out or things happen in a better way than ever I hoped or could expect. I can endure the rougher times knowing that He has my back when it matters most – like during our current times. I accept that the tough times are meant to strengthen and educate me and my loved ones. Sometimes they are meant for me to endure in order to minister to somebody else’s needs. Whatever – all of it is for His glory.

Many times I become so self absorbed or caught up in other events or activities that I am not paying attention to what He is doing or has done. It is almost embarrassing when I finally realize it. So many “aha” moments. So many times I have not listened to the still, small voice of the Holy Spirit. But even in my weakness, He is faithful. As my understanding has matured, I can accept being ignored or even ridiculed by those I love and respect while at the same time forgive them without losing my love and respect for them.

Bless their hearts. 😂

The Tomb Remains Empty

The haters and their master, Satan, have never found a way to put Jesus back in the tomb. It is still empty nearly 2000 years later and will remain that way throughout eternity. What is done is done.

Which is also the answer to the most important question that MAGA seeks. More and more Americans need to wake up to the eternal truth of knowing Jesus as their Savior. That’s the answer to that MAGA question of how do we should respond to the evil and help MAGA happen. The more who do accept the free gift of eternal life through Christ Jesus, the more likely it will be that Yahweh will forgive our collective national sins and restore us. We will not be able to just give lip service as He knows our hearts.

Acts 3:19, 20 – Therefore repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord; and that He may send Jesus, the Christ appointed for you, (NASB)

America needs the revival of seeing the empty tomb and rejoicing that its founding is based on belief in God and His provision. It needs to restore the Republic to its original intent and design through acceptance of Christ as intended by our founders. If we do, fewer of our fellow citizens will be deceived and follow those who lead them and this nation into destruction. We must confess our national sins and repent to be restored into fellowship with Him to receive the benefits and protection we seek. One designated day or week of national prayer for forgiveness is not going to get it done. It takes heart change and daily application by the masses, who will then live out their faith in every aspect of American life. That ostracizes those who would do evil and strengthens those called to protect and serve the public’s best interests in the government as well as in the courts of man. We have their backs, they then have ours because we are on the same God fearing page.

I pray that you will focus on that empty tomb this year. It provides the answer to all we seek as a nation in these perilous times. Blessings to all.

Guess it is time to open the “can ‘o worms” again. 🙁
So… question: Is God (any/all of the 3 – Trinity), Sitting in Heaven with no clue as to what is going to happen to any one of us? Did He not plan out this entire “Life” for each of us?

rayzorback

Sorry, but I strongly disagree.
“His” plans NEVER Change. (that would admit error) of which is IMPOSSIBLE.
You seem to think that “WE” have some POWER over God. IMPOSSIBLE!!!
He ATTEMPTS? Are you serious?

rayzorback

Consider from the scriptures themselves…

Eph 1
1  Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, to the saints that are at Ephesus, and the faithful in Christ Jesus:
2 in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience. (Slave of Satan)
4  just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love
5  He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His will,
11  also we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to His purpose who works all things after the counsel of His will, 
.
Eph 2
1 And you were dead in your trespasses and sins,
4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,
5 even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),
8 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God;
9 not as a result of works, so that noone may boast. 
.
John 6
37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
 38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
 39 And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
.
Rom 3
11 THERE IS NONE WHO UNDERSTANDS, THERE IS NONE WHO SEEKS FOR GOD;
12 ALL HAVE TURNED ASIDE, TOGETHER THEY HAVE BECOME USELESS; THERE IS NONE WHO DOES GOOD, THERE IS NOT EVEN ONE.”
Rom 8
7  because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so,
8 and those who are in the flesh cannot please God
28 And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.
29 For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren;
30 and these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He called, He also justified; and these whom He justified, He also glorified.
.
Rom 9
 20Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
 21Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honor, and another unto dishonor? 

BTW…. I am happy to be an ashtray in Heaven 🙂

Believe whatever YOU want.
I believe God is Sovereign and in Control of EVERYTHING. Did you not read the scriptures that I presented? It is clear to me that WE are NOT in control of Anything even if it appears that we might be.
Good night and thanks for the opportunity to present my understanding of Election and Predestination.
I will never believe that WE have control over God or that HE is reacting to OUR actions. HE already KNOWS EVERYTHING.

If thou confess with thy mouth The Lord Jesus and believe in thine heart that GOD has raised Him from the dead…

…thou shalt be saved.

Maranatha, Yeshua

we are now in the beginning of sorrows…

thanks for your Testimonies, Tradebait2

Thank you! We needed this focus!   💖

I will present some clips from a distant relative of mine. Some called him the Price of Preachers. Charles Haddon Spurgeon.
.
snip: I know that those whom God saves He saves with an everlasting salvation, when I know that He gives to them an everlasting righteousness, when I know that He settles them on an everlasting foundation of everlasting love, and that He will bring them to His everlasting kingdom, oh, then I do wonder, and I am astonished that such a blessing as this should ever have been given to me!

snip: I suppose there are some persons whose minds naturally incline towards the doctrine of free-will. I can only say that mine inclines as naturally towards the doctrines of sovereign grace. Sometimes, when I see some of the worst characters in the street, I feel as if my heart must burst forth in tears of gratitude that God has never let me act as they have done! I have thought, if God had left me alone, and had not touched me by His grace, what a great sinner I should have been! I   should have run to the utmost lengths of sin, dived into the very depths of evil, nor should I have stopped at any vice or folly, if God had not restrained me. I feel   that I should have been a very king of sinners, if God had let me alone. I cannot understand the reason why I am saved, except upon the ground that God would have it so. I cannot, if I look ever so earnestly, discover any kind of reason in myself why I should be a partaker of Divine grace. If I am not at this moment without Christ, it is only because Christ Jesus would have His will with me, and that will was that I should be with Him where He is, and should share His glory. I can put the crown nowhere but upon the head of Him whose mighty grace has saved me from going down into the pit. Looking back on my past life, I can see that the dawning of it all was of God; of God effectively. I took no torch with which to light the sun, but the sun enlightened me. I did not commence my spiritual life—no, I rather kicked, and struggled against the things of the Spirit: when He drew me, for a time I did not run after Him: there was a natural hatred in my soul of everything holy and good. Wooings were lost upon me—warnings were cast to the wind—thunders were despised; and as for the whispers of His love, they were rejected as being less than nothing and vanity. But, sure I am, I can say now, speaking on behalf of myself, “He only is my salvation.” It was He who turned my heart, and brought me down on my knees before Him.

(Bolding mine)

snip: One week-night, when I was sitting in the house of God, I was not thinking much about the preacher’s sermon, for I did not believe it. The thought struck me, How did you come to be a Christian? I sought the Lord. But how did you come to seek the Lord? The truth flashed across my mind in a moment—I should not have sought Him unless there had been some previous influence in my mind to make me seek Him. I prayed, thought I, but then I asked myself, How came I to pray? I was induced to pray by reading the Scriptures. How came I to read the Scriptures? I did read them, but what led me to do so? Then, in a

 
moment, I saw that God was at the bottom of it all, and that He was the Author of my faith, and so the whole doctrine of grace opened up to me, and from that doctrine I have not departed to this day, and I desire to make this my constant confession, “I ascribe my change wholly to God.”

snip: First, let me ask, must we not all of us admit an over-ruling Providence, and the appointment of Jehovah’s hand, as to the means whereby we came into this world? Those men who think that, afterwards, we are left to our own free-will to choose this one or the other to direct our steps, must admit that our entrance into the world was not of our own will, but that God had then to choose for us. What circumstances were those in our power which led us to elect certain persons to be our parents? Had we anything to do with it? Did not God Himself appoint our parents, native place, and friends? Could He not have caused me to be born with…
.
snip: sir, the Lord must have loved me before I was born, or else He would not have seen anything  in me to love afterwards.” I am sure it is true in my case; I believe the doctrine of election, because I am quite certain that, if God had not chosen me, I should never have chosen Him; and I am sure He chose me before I was born, or else He never would have chosen me afterwards; and He must have elected me for reasons unknown to me, for I never could find any reason in myself why He should have looked upon me with special love. So I am forced to accept that great Biblical doctrine.
.
snip: Jesus loved His people before the foundation of the world—even from eternity! and when He called me by His grace, He said to me, “I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.”

Tom Zimmer – “The Hermit of Loreto”2017

 

About two weeks ago, I received a barrage of emails and Facebook messages asking me about the American “Hermit of Loreto.” Though I, too, am an American who lives in Loreto, Italy, I had never heard of him.

In the video, American diocesan priest from Providence, Rhode Island, Fr. Giacomo Capoverdi, recounts how he once met this holy man who living in Loreto. He says that some seventeen years earlier, a friend of his — an Italian American doctor named Claudio Curran — told him that he just had to get up to Loreto on his upcoming trip to Rome to speak with a holy man there by the name of Tom Zimmer.

 ..

 

After looking into Tom Zimmer, the “Hermit of Loreto,” I have no reason to doubt Fr. Capoverdi’s statements that Thomas Zimmer communicated to his friend that he received a “premonition” that Donald Trump would “lead America back to God.” Nevertheless, when seeking to determine whether a prophecy is true or false, the Church leaves us some criteria to guide us in discernment.

You are welcome.

It’s certainly interesting.

Thank you for posting this, we’re definitely in perilous times. I am saddened by what I see daily happening in the world.
Everyday I am thankful that I’ve accepted Jesus, it brings peace to me knowing the ending I’ll receive when living in this daily assault we’re under.
