This is a site dedicated to Christian studies of various subjects, which include: End Time Prophecy, Apostasy, Ministry, Missions and Current Events. You may notice that there are some other random topics here as well. This is because this was my first site and at the beginning, I wasn’t sure if it would be a personal site or otherwise… it turned out to be otherwise, therefore, I created other sites for my more personal entries. You can see those sites, which are listed below. Thank you for stopping by and I hope to hear from you. If there is anything that you would like for me to research, please feel free to leave a comment and I will do my best to cover it. Thanks again and God bless!
Sincerely In Christ,
Alison
Click here for Part I. Part I tells the prestory of Mieshka coming to our home and her pregnancy. It took me a while to be able to post that story because I was having numerous problems with uploading pictures. So, to update you, she has had her babies! Mieshka had her babies on July [...]
It has been awhile since my last post, so today I thought that I would write about our new kitty. B and I were out one day and when we came home, there was a young kitty in our bushes. This little kitty was a girl and she was so sweet. She looked like she [...]

Today, I thought that I would share with you my salvation testimony. When I was younger, from birth, my grandmother and my dad would take me to church. They were Catholic. Though they never told me how to be saved, they told me who God was and who Jesus was, etc.
I remember whenever my dad [...]

Story II: The death of my grandmother
My grandmother, my dad’s mother, was my best friend growing up. I loved her beyond words and I was her favorite, so her death really affected me deeply. The really sad thing was that my mom and I were going to visit her the next weekend.
At [...]
Wow, Part I was pretty cleansing. I am not one to normally talk about myself like this, so this is an interesting experience to say the least. Now, here we go on Part II.
Previously, I spoke mostly about my sister… or “half” sister, as she would put it. I had referred to other stories in [...]
I thought that I would write a little more about my life history today. I was born in Southern California but I moved around a lot through the years. Both sides of my grandparents were in the air force, so my parents were somewhat BRATS. Those in the military understand that term, though I do [...]
I have not had much to write about lately, so today, I thought that I would share with you one of my favorite Edgar Allan Poe poems. Most people know him because of “The Raven” and some other short stories that he wrote, but this poem that I will share with you now is one [...]

Okay, this may sound odd to some, but sometimes when I am having a hard time getting to sleep at night… my husband walks me through some visualizations – and it works. Last night was one of those nights.
It all started one night about a week ago, when I just couldn’t go to sleep [...]
My husband started a discussion the other day regarding the Myers-Briggs personality test. You can see what you rank by Clicking Here. So, I thought that I would share my results with you here. My test says that I rank as an “ISFJ”, which means the following:
( I = 67%) ( S = 1%) ( [...]

Today I was looking at some old 1980’s decade things like commercials, cartoons, etc. Well, I came across the Monchhichi dolls and cartoon intro:
I just got a huge kick out of this. I use to have one and I loved it dearly. When I was 6 years old, my school had [...]
I write this in the midst of the passionate flurry of emotions from the events which unfolded just moments ago. My heart still races within my chest and my head is still high with adrenaline. I was sitting on the couch, minding my own business while trying to destress from the sibling rivalry between my [...]
I came across this joke a little while back and it made me laugh soooo hard, so I wanted to share it here. The comedian is Anjelah Johnson and she captures it perfectly. For anyone who has ever gotten this done, this video will bring back memories. Enjoy!
A cup of coffee and a chatt with friends… this is what I miss the most. I am reminded of past friends and joys, by a fellow blogger that I read. So, I thought that I would write about that today.
I enjoyed nothing more than sitting with a close friend, drinking coffee and chatting about [...]
Today is such a beautiful day that I just had to write about it. There is a nice breeze blowing in through the windows and the sun is shining, illuminating everything with it’s warm glow. The birds are singing and preparing their nests, while the cats are enjoying the view. I have some swing king [...]
My favorite childhood memory:
I had previously gone to a forum that had a thread topic of “What is your favorite childhood memory”… So, I replied about mine and I thought I would share that here as well.
When I was younger, I would love to go outside at night because it was so much more peaceful [...]
Who sings that song, I asked Bradley, franctically trying to search every outlet I could get my little fingers on…
I didn’t know who was the singer of the song below until tonight. I searched all around and came up with another song, which turns out to be one of my favorites now. Anyway, the song [...]

There are a lot of people who are looking at this war between Israel and all the other nations in the wrong way as well as other situations in life.I am noticing many who are fellow believers getting ‘caught up’ with the cares and concerns of this life.I do agree that we are to pray for the peace of Israel, knowing of course, that true peace will only come when our Lord and Savior, Jesus sets up His kingdom here on earth.
First, we must all realize that ‘we’ cannot establish the Lord’s kingdom on earth, only the Lord Himself can and will accomplish this, but not until we go in the rapture of the church and the anti-christ reigns his false government on earth (probably convincing everyone that it is the true kingdom of God).
Secondly, we must realize that what all God has said (preordained) will happen – WILL HAPPEN, regardless of what control we think we may have.God has allowed us as humans to influence His decisions in some ways, but not against HIS already written Word.
To know what is coming for Israel and all the other nations who are coming against her; all you have to do is to read books such as…
Isaiah
Ezekiel
Amos
Obadiah
Daniel
Revelation
These are just some to say a few.What God has written in His Word, is going to happen and it is going to happen soon and quickly.So, recognizing this fact and that we are to always pray according to the will of God, which is the Word of God, we should not waste our energies on praying against the things the Lord has already told us will and must first and soon take place before His return.
I think that a better place to focus our energies is to pray for the souls who are left, that they will accept the True Gospel and be saved before it is too late.Also to pray for the safety and courage of those who are all around the world preaching the true gospel of Christ, even against persecution of those who are in the ‘church’.
The time is short and getting shorter by the minute.Now is not the time to sit back and be complacent.The day is soon coming to an end and none of us will be able to work anymore. Now is the time to pick up yourself, stand firm in the truth of God’s Word and proclaim it boldly to all those we come into contact with – no matter the consequences.Whether we want to recognize it or not, we will be held accountable for the blood of all those whom we choose, for whatever reason, to not share the truth with.We cannot change their fate ourselves, but we can be a witness so they are left without excuse and you have then given God the glory by allowing Him to use you.
So, I encourage you to not use laziness or the lack of time as a crutch because your time may be shorter than you think and a crutch will not hold you up in the day of your judgment.How horrible it will be for those to stand before the Lord, knowing His sacrifice for us, and not having done everything in our ability for Him while here on earth.Have you ever taken an honest moment to think about how you will feel, what you will think, what it will be like, to truly stand before GOD the One who created ALL things and can end all things just with a thought?You might just want to take that moment now and make sure you really are ready to meet Him face to face.Do not assume it will be a light moment; this is God we are talking about, not a friend from down the street.A holy fear is one of reverence – do you really have that?
Is Jesus your Savior AND your LORD? If not, ask Him to be. Ask Him to forgive you of all of your sins and to show you how to please Him. Read His Word and don’t follow men, follow only God through His Word, it is the only truth and the only way. Don’t hesitate, time is running out.
You have to see/hear this video, which shows the dangers of the National ID that will be going into effect very soon… It is funny but scary. Bradley, my husband, said that (I will quote him):
“The only thing missing on the sketch is a tab that allows the pizza employee to watch the man on traffic/security cams between the office and the house. It really isn’t that far away! All of the information is already out there… all it takes is someone putting it all together in one place. Well, that’s already done too… It’s just not public YET!”
The following is a profound study on the Jewish Feasts of the Lord and their corrolation with signs in the heavens just as the Bible predicted. I am also including a few links, which provide more information as well as study charts, etc. You will find these videos very intreaguing. I have linked the video for Part I in a previous post, however, I will post again, once I have access to, Part II, so eventually, they will all be together in one post. If you would like to know what dates are what between the calendar that we go by verses the Jewish calendar, you can go HERE to do a conversion.
Luke 21:36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Acts 20:31 Thereforewatch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears. 1 Thessalonians 5:6 Therefore let us not sleep, as [do] others; but let us watch and be sober. 1 Peter 4:7 But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. Revelation 3:3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
Please share your creative thoughts on this project. I have begun a story and would like for you to help me finish it. Please add one or two paragraphs to continue the story and others will continue from there. I think this would be fun and could be quite funny in the end. So, here is my beginning:
An image standing before me, unfamiliar yet comforting, baffled my imagination. With distant memories flooding my vision like a black and white picture screen, my knees fell weak and dropped me to the chair brilliantly positioned for my arrival. Who was this person? Instantly I snapped back to the present and pondered the room around me, intently taking in every detail. Directly in front of me was the full-length free standing mirror I had as a child, but the image it reflected was strangely different to me upon closer inspection. Who had I become over the years and where did that time go? I could see the watermark of the girl I once was, but it was overlaid with a cloud of mystery from the path I chose along the way. Dreams give way to life my mother would say as I realized it for the first time today.
Feeling out of breath from the discouraging transition, I decided to go to the window. I always loved the view from my window looking down the old cobblestone walkways lined with cottage style storefronts. The best time was during dusk when the sunlight gave off a yellow hue just before the street lanterns came on to light the way. Many times in the past, I could get lost for hours just gazing at the swaying of the perfectly manicured trees on either side of the street. The peace and possibilities this view brought me made my mind soar with wonderment. This always brought me back to when I was a kid and the only concern was what to play that day.
I remember in years past, older folks cautioning us kids to enjoy it while we could, of course never realizing that they knew what they were talking about…
Here is a video of a teaching regarding the rapture of the church being on the feast of First Fruits, which is the same day that Jesus rose from the dead and acended up to heaven. Later, He came back down again to spent 40 days with His disciples. The basics of the message is that there are 3 Feasts that represent a harvest and that they correspond with 3 harvestings of believers, Jews included at the end.
Here is a site video that won’t be able to be uploaded for long, that talks about the future eclipses coming up over the next 7 years. You can double check with NASA to back the data. The intriguing thing though, is that there are 4 (solar and lunar) back to back on Jewish Feasts in 2014-2015. A Jewish year begins in Sept/Oct on the Festival of Rosh Hashannah. You should really watch this video to get a better idea of what I am saying. This video is a Part I and when they post Part II, I will link it. They are only up on the site for about a month before they are archived and then you have to purchase them.
If this is accurate, and I believe that it is… then the 7 year tribulation should begin this year. I believe in a Pre-Trib Rapture, so that would mean that the Rapture is just around the corner. Regarding the Rapture, I believe that it will be on a Jewish Feast day. One very good possibility is the feast of First Fruits which begins tomorrow (Saturday, April 26th) at sundown (Jerusalem time). I will go more into all of that later though. I just wanted to make sure that I got this video posted asap. If you have any trouble opening the link, you can go to Prophecy In The News and click on the link for The Jewish Feasts of the Lord. The original link I provided is to view the video on DSL, but if you go to the website, you can choose which form you can view it in.
This is my first blog ever… I am still trying to figure it all out, which seems odd because I am not that old - so you would think that I would have done this before. Sometimes it seems as though I begin new technologies just as they are becoming extinct. So, if anyone reads this and knows any insider tid-bits, feel free to let me in on them. This first post is more of a test, so I will write more later.
