Now, I completely understand how you may feel very upset about “pastors” being led by greed and just trying to obtain as much of your money as possible. Those are dominantly, but not limited to preachers in the Word of Faith movement and the Ecumenical movement. The one’s who promise a miracle for money, etc. However, this should not carry over as a stereotype. Material has a cost and having the ability to utilize technology to share teachings costs. In that case, there is no difference between that and making an offering to send missionaries across the globe to preach to and serve those in need.

I understand that many are confusing the situation about the eclipses and Hebrew festivals along with the Rapture of the Church situation. Mr. Biltz did a study of the interesting future events of the eclipses correlating with Hebrew dates of significance. He shared his belief of the date of Rosh Hashanah being a strong possibility for the date of the Rapture, however, though he showed interest in the “what if” idea of it happening at the beginning of these eclipses and showed how that “may” correspond to the events during the tribulation and the 2nd coming of Christ… he did NOT make a matter of fact prediction regarding the Rapture happening on Rosh Hashanah 2008. There is a huge difference.

I notice how you make light of prophecy and the end days… by the way, it is not the end of the “world” it is the end of the “age of grace”. The world will continue for another 1,000 years before the final judgement, however, the age of grace you so mock will end shortly.

Your comment is one of the many signs that point us to the fact that we are in the last days as prophecied by the Bible. (Jude 1:18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. *and* 2 Peter 3:4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as [they were] from the beginning of the creation.)

You said, “Sow fear, $ell salvation”. It is only fear to those who have something to fear, but to those who are Christ’s it is salvation eternal. Yes, some as I stated in the beginning of this post do try to “sell” salvation and they will reap their just reward (judgment) in the end – read 2nd Peter. Those individuals however, do not eliminate the Truth for what it is and the fact that no matter who stands against it or chooses not to believe it… it will still come to pass just as it is written. You have access to the Truth now, but there will be a day soon when you will search for it and not find it because you chose not to love it now when it was here. (2 Thessalonians 2:10-12 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.)

Now, in regard to your 2nd comment, as you can see… I posted your comment in its entirety. I encourage you to read the Word of God, the Bible because it is your salvation. There is no other way a man can be save but through the Lord and Savior Jesus the Christ. (John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.) You never know when your last opportunity to obtain salvation will be. Once you die, there are no 2nd chances.

PS: You should try contacting Mr. Biltz regarding your concerns and let him respond to you directly, himself.

Sincerely In Christ,

Here’s a prophecy for you. Feel free to compare the accuracy of mine to that of the learned pastor. By 2016, you’ll be able to pick up this video series for “shipping and handling only”. A new video will be out, same bible quotes, different years. Shifted out just far enough to settle into another round of “fishing for dollars” in the waters of naïevity. With the credulous and the stupid lining up to bite.

Sow fear, $ell salvation. The matra of organized religion the world over.

A far more creative way of extracting money than tithe, I will concede that. Equally as dishonest, but you knew that already…

PS: Remind me again, why does he need the money if the world is about to end?

Thank you for your comment. You are correct in stating that the Great Tribulation has not yet begun. The correlations regarding the eclipses are stunning and I am sure they hold a significant “sign” regarding the end times though I do not have more details for you presently. The next solar eclipse occurs later this month (July 22nd) which is also Av 1 on the Hebrew calendar. We know that from Av1 – Av 9, this is the most solemn time for the Jewish people (temples destroyed, etc.). The prediction you are referring to is more of a reference to coincidence than an actual prediction. Kind of like the things that make you go, “Hmmm…” rather than “Ah-Ha!”

Either way, we know that based on what is happening around the world… the time is very near and literally could happen any moment now. So, no matter what is predicted or researched, we should all keep looking up for our redemption draws near.

Thank you again for your comment. I’m sorry that I cannot give you more information at this time. Let me know if you come across anything of significance as well and I will research this further. Have a blessed day Nigel.

I completely agree with you whole heartedly! Time is so short and once it is over, we can do no more. God speed my friend!

Sincerely In Christ,

That is great! I think it caused quite the wake up call to the Church… to some however it has been quite a loud warning siren that they just want to quiet. Thank you so much for your comment my friend.

Sincerely In Christ,
