“Vanity of vanities, says the preacher; all is vanity.” Ecclesiastes 12:8 As I sit here and read some of the notes that I have collected since early February I see some of the following: Theft – Family Fare (grocery store, will be addressed in the Watching & Ready Column 14) Comment about someone’s wife watching Fox news 24/7 (will be addressed in this article) Mens’ hearts failing (will be addressed in this article) Musk False Prophet Suspect? – Implements Mark of the Beast??? A ‘thorn’ Comes Up Among Them – Who is them? (will be addressed in that same column???) If we were to have the Antichrist rising to power somewhere in the world now, then would not the False Prophet potentially already be close by to him??? (will not be addressed) Trump/Gaza – peace deal – Abraham accords – many nations (will not be addressed) MRNA vaccine – Biden mandate – Supreme Court (will not be addressed) Blood moons – Israel (will not be addressed, at least at this time) Could we say ‘he’ about the EU??? (In regards to the ‘thorn’ among –them-, might be addressed in the same column snippet) Then there were many thoughts, things that I have been pondering as it seems that this ‘planned’ busy-i-ness continued on with one thing after the next. In fact even today as I finally thought that I could breath a sigh of relief, my laptop broke and I had to get my backup laptop up and running, which essentially took the majority of the day...

“But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with giddiness, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come upon you unexpectedly. For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth. Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.” Luke 21:34-36 There are even some who are not truly Saved (Matt. 7:20) who anticipate that we are heading into some sort of end times scenario sometime soon. A lot is transpiring in the world and it seems that worldwide the eyes are upon President-elect Donald Trump and what will take place beginning shortly. Well we have spoken many times how the Bible tells Believers to be watching and ready (Matt. 24:42-44), in fact this article is being written in lieu of one of the regular Watching & Ready columns that have become a regular staple at All Will Stand’s website. Yet, consider the opening passage here, especially the following ‘that Day come upon you unexpectedly’. Just how could that happen? Well for some, it certainly will be that they are absolutely watching and ready, but for others, many who profess to be Christians (Rom. 9:6) they are literally asleep ‘in the pew’. Consider these words from Jesus in Revelation: “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I would that you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I...

“For we know that if our earthly house, this tent, is torn down, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in Heaven. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our dwelling place out of Heaven, if indeed, being clothed, we shall not be found naked. For we who are in this tent groan, being burdened, not because we want to be unclothed, but clothed, that mortality may be swallowed up by life. Now He who has fashioned us for this very thing is God, who also has given us the earnest of the Spirit. So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. For we walk by faith, not by sight. We are confident, yes, preferring rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord.” 2nd Corinthains 5:1-8 Awhile back I had produced some broadcast material for the Back to the Basics radio program, all of which were aired in Africa, about Hell. During one of those shows, I made mention that eventually, Lord willing, we would talk about Heaven. Jesus spoke –much- more about Hell then He did about Heaven, warning men. For most people will end up in Hell, though most, especially in the West will incorrectly confess themselves to be going to Heaven (Matthew 7:13-23). So now let’s take a moment to glean out some interesting things that we can from the Bible about Heaven! What, as least used to, be heard was a lot of...

“Yet I considered it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, and fellow soldier, and your messenger and the one who ministered to my need;” … Philippians 2:25 … “to the beloved Apphia, Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church in your house:” … Philemon 1:2 “You therefore endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No one serving military duty entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him.” 2nd Timothy 2:3-4 ……………………………………………………………………………………………… Editors Note: Looking at the newspaper last night and seeing the never-ending assault against God, His people, His Word had me pondering the scale of what is going on, not just in this state (South Dakota), but throughout the entire country and indeed world. Well if this interestingly put together ‘article’ incites the powers-that-be to chalk one more file against God’s servant as this article mixes a fictional scenario to preach God’s truth, but in their eyes mixing ‘religious’ ideas with ‘militant’ ideas equals a domestic terrorist, well so be it! After all, these same powers (Eph. 6:12) are certainly going to be running the show during the reign of the Antichrist that will happen during the Tribulation (Jer. 30:7) upon those who will have been Left Behind. ……………………………………………………………………………………………… Fellow Soldier: “Sir, can we save our country?! The enemy appears to be everywhere and they have a great following! (Luk. 13:23-27)” General Preacher: “We are at war, the battle is strong, but worry not, though the enemy takes more ground, enlisting the already enslaved as their foot...

“Jesus asked him, saying, What is your name? And he said, Legion, because many demons had entered him. And they begged Him that He would not command them to go out into the abyss.” Luke 8:30-31 Let’s turn our attention to realities, realities that are amongst us, the fullness of which is not known, but where the Bible has shed enough light to give us understanding and knowledge that we might turn our ways unto God through His Son, Jesus Christ. Just –what- word to use here? I had thought to use pit and when I went to look up the verse that was on my mind I see that in the VW-edition it is ‘abyss’ and in the KJV it is ‘deep’. So I got out my old Webster’s University dictionary and looked it up, finally determining I would just leave the word ‘pit’ in the title of this article, as it seems appropriate enough. Abyss, n. 1.) A bottomless gulf; also a deep mass of waters, once supposed to have encompassed the earth in the beginning; as, the face of the abyss, in the Septuangint 2.) That which is immeasurable; that in which anything is lost. Thy throne is darkness, in the abyss of night. – Milton 3.) The bottomless pit; hell; Erebus. 4.) An immensity of time, space, depth, or scope, usually with the idea of intellectual or moral depravity; as, an abyss of ignorance, as abyss of crime. 5.) In heraldry, the center of an escutcheon; as, he bears azure, a fleur-de-lis, in abyss. Syn. – Chasm, cleft, crevasse, gorge,...

“Why should I fear in the days of evil, when the depravity of my supplanters surrounds me? Those who trust in their wealth and boast in the abundance of their riches: None of them can at all redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him (for the redemption of their soul is precious, and it comes to an end forever), that he might yet live forever and never see the pit. For he sees wise men die; likewise the fool and the brutish ones perish, and leave their wealth to others. Their inner thought is that their houses will last forever, and their dwelling places from generation to generation; they call their lands after their own names. Nevertheless man, though precious, does not remain; he is like the animals that perish. This way of theirs is their folly; yet those who follow delight in their sayings. Selah. Like sheep they are appointed to the grave; death shall shepherd them, and the upright shall have the rule over them in the morning; their form is consumed; Sheol is their home. But God will redeem my soul from the hand of Sheol; for He will carry me away. Selah. Be not afraid when one becomes rich, when the glory of his house increases; for when he dies he shall carry nothing away; his glory shall not descend after him. For in his life he blessed his own soul (indeed, they praise you when you do well for yourself). But he shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see light. A man with honor, but...
