Preface

1. Thanks to….Donna, Rene and Jenni…the loves of my life!  And future life!
2. When I met Donna, I corrected her letter, now the reverse is true as she is the greater editor and corrects my mistakes!  Love you!
3. Purpose for writing-as an encouragement to all I love. For these final words to each of you near the end of this writing, there is no way I can say all I want and I am sure I will miss some things to say, but I will make up for it during the 1000 year reign of Jesus as we will have glorious days together.
4. Things change fast and need updating-keep reading and studying.  Take the writing here to the next level as you learn more and the prophecies are increasingly unsealed.  We will understand more and more as we get closer to the end.  The Rapture of the church is coming!  The only question is when?  It could be in the next 2-5 years as technology is advancing so rapidly that humanity is threatened.  The advancement in AI (artificial intelligence) is so fast that human beings may not be recognizable in the next 10 years.  Plus the threat of economic collapse, EMPs, nuclear war, famines, earthquakes and pestilences is so pervasive that how long can we survive?  Jesus said that unless He cut those days short, no one would survive the coming calamities (Matthew 24:22).  God is patient that no one should perish, but that patience may be running out quickly as mankind is on the edge of global catastrophe.  At the tower of Babel the peoples of the earth were so united that God said, “nothing will be impossible for them.”  So he confused their language and separated them into different tribes and nations all over the globe.  Today we are approaching that same point.  Nothing is impossible for us.  AI can learn languages in a manner of minutes, have self awareness and can mingle with humans.  With the advancement of genetic alteration coupled with AI, the rise of human hybridization is approaching quickly. Communication across the world is virtually instantaneous.  The global agenda is rising quickly and the anti-christ will eventually hijack it and use a ten kingdom confederacy for his quest to rise to power and demand to be worshipped.  These 10 kings could be out of Europe or possibly 10 regions on the  earth.  Or perhaps they could be powerful and rich influencers in the mold of Elon Musk or Bill Gates or George Soros or any of the power brokers that rise up on the earth. God must intervene to destroy this man of sin and save the earth.  But how soon will that be?  Read your bible, study the prophecies, and be ready.  We are promised in I Thess. 5:4-6, that we are  children of the light and not the darkness.  That day will not overtake us like a thief. The rapture is coming!  In our heart of hearts and through the power of the Holy Spirit we will know that we are on the cusp.  So let us watch, not grow weary, and be sober. And on that day when Jesus Himself descends from heaven with a shout and raises us from mortal to immortal, we will all be reunited.  What a glorious reunion that will be! 
5. I have listed resources after each section as most topics I cover do not provide enough depth, so I have provided a list of highly reputable resources for your own personal study. There are going to be places in these writings where you feel that I have cut it short and left you with many unanswered questions.  To keep this book from being over 1000 pages, I hope to provide many resources for you to continue your study and find the answers for which you are searching. I strongly recommend that you do this as it is a vital part of learning and growing in the faith. Of course, the Bible is the ultimate resource and all other resources should be checked against it.
6. I urge you to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. He is our only hope.  If He actually rose from the dead then that changes everything.  You must make a decision about Him.  You cannot be neutral.  Either He is God, a lunatic or liar.  There are no other choices.  Swallow your pride, admit you’re a sinner and invite Him into your heart as Lord.  You may not have answers to all of your questions, but that is ok.  Trust Him and lean not to your own understanding.  He will direct your paths. (Proverbs 3:5-6)
