Eternal Rest

“His lord said to him, Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will appoint you administrator over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.”  Matthew 25:21   This is taken from a parable taught by Jesus.  For the purpose of this article, we are only going to focus on the precept taught by Jesus to hear the ‘well done’ by being a good and faithful servant, eventually entering into eternal rest with Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.   There are a lot of people who have hard lives, some more obvious than others.  When we go downtown or to known trouble areas of the city, handing out tracts and Bibles, we witness first hand the very hard lives of those who have obviously been captivated by the devil and are on the broad path to destruction (Matthew 7:13).   The other day we were making a round and after speaking to several people, handing out a drink and a snack, we were nearing the end of our resources on hand and heading back.  We still had a few more drinks and tracts and decided to cross a street where there was some sort of problem playing out.   Unbeknownst to us, a domestic dispute had just occurred.  There was a man with his hands up, ready for police intervention, he had just beat his wife, though no police were yet arriving.  There another man was trying to get him to move along, threatening to and then eventually calling the police over the domestic dispute.  His wife laying next to...

Authentic Biblical Salvation – Part Two

“Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God.” 2 Corinthians 5:20. What is an ambassador? This word is a legal governing constituted statute that decrees individuals who hold diplomatic authority to a foreign government or sovereign. Merriam Website Dictionary Online https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/ambassador 1 : an official envoy especially : a diplomatic agent of the highest rank accredited to a foreign government or sovereign as the resident representative of his or her own government or sovereign or appointed for a special and often temporary diplomatic assignment She’s the American ambassador to Italy. 2 a: an authorized representative or messenger b: an unofficial representative When God’s Grace Saves His people, they become ambassadors for Christ. This verse astonishingly informs us that Christians get a new form of citizenship. We thereby become foreigners of our old state. It is kind of like people who migrate to other countries, where they denounce their former citizenship and become naturalized under a new nationality. We thereby become a citizen of God’s eternal Kingdom. “And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.” Revelation 19:16. As you can see, dear reader, under natural law, a person who has believed by faith that Jesus Christ is the Savior of the World and faithfully repented to God the Father, these individuals inherits a new nationality. This nationality is our new birthright. This nationality is our new citizenship in the eternal King of God’s Heaven. Our New Birthright? “Jesus answered and said...

Guillotines & the Bible

“And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was committed to them; and I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Jesus and for the Word of God, who had not done homage to the beast or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. And they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.”  Revelation 20:4   This article is being done as a supplement to a radio show that will be aired in both the Philadelphia metro area, as well as throughout Africa.  Let’s take a moment to address this issue and look at some of the history of this teaching, then find out what the Bible says about guillotines and the Tribulation time period, starting off with a bit of history of the use of guillotines in our modern era.    Some research will show that guillotines and their predecessors can be tracked back to the Middle Ages, but the popularity of the guillotine, in its current form thought of in modern culture stems mainly back to the French Revolution.    During the French Revolution executions by guillotines were popularized and became quite a public display of death that were experienced by numerous amounts of victims.  In fact, the guillotine was used in France first in 1792 all the way until 1977!    There have been those who proclaim to have evidence for several years now of a conspiracy of guillotines being prepared to be used during martial law in the United States, as well also at least in...

The Dead are Alive!

“And I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heavens fled away. And there was found no place for them.  And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God. And books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, out of the things which were written in the books.  And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one, according to their works.  And Death and Hades were cast into the Lake of Fire. This is the second death.  And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the Lake of Fire.”  Revelation 20:11-15   Finally, after a lot of catching up to do with other financial priorities, there was both time and enough money to be able to go out and proceed forward with the street ministry in Rapid City, SD.    I’ve always been a firm believer that going out by twos are a good practice (Mark 6:7) and seeing as how I have yet to find another who is willing to brave the streets to hand out Gospel tracts, Bibles and a snack to those who need it, my eleven year old son, who was Saved at the age of 4, is the other one who goes out with me.    While we walk around downtown Rapid City, we follow God’s attribute and are no respecter...

Biblical Principles of Financing – Six Days to Work

“Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.  Six days you shall labor and do all your work, and the seventh day is the Sabbath of Jehovah your God. In it you shall not do any work; you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your sojourner who is within your gates.  For in six days Jehovah made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore Jehovah has blessed the Sabbath day and consecrated it.”  Exodus 20:8-11   Believers are not under the law (Matt. 19:18-19) for we are Saved by grace (Eph. 2:8-9), nonetheless we are commanded to not forsake the assembling of ourselves (Heb. 10:25).  So rather than turn a biblical principle of financing written piece into a segment about the Sabbath day, this is simply taking a look at an approach of how much should one work in order to pay the bills.   Before proceeding, there are all sort of financial problems that people, including Believers, get themselves into.  There could be an occasion where you are forced to work temporarily seven days per week.  Perhaps you have made a commitment, perhaps you have a contract for a business that you can not break and things didn’t go as you planned, forcing you to work more (this has happened to me), perhaps your spouse is temporarily unable to work and you have to pick up additional hours or a second job until that source of income can come back or perhaps you need...

Preaching the Gospel

All Will Stand LLC has always been funded, until a small donation received this year, from the income that the Lord gives through regular work. Nonetheless, we live in a dark age where even though people are not very receptive of ‘thus saith the Lord’ type preaching, as well as true biblical preaching, the opportunity is presented to reach many people through the avenue of radio.   If God so wills, certainly people can be reached coast to coast or around the world, without a doubt. With that said, I have setup a donation page found HERE.  There is a disclaimer that should be read, even if you decide to send a check or money order instead.   There is a great amount of work to be done, even in this late hour and unfortunately radio slots are expensive.  There is also a Church with a good pastor in Colombia, where they are doing God’s great work of preaching the Gospel, baptisms, teaching young children to memorize Bible verses, feeding the poor, being a bastion of Truth in an otherwise dark neighborhood in a poorer part of Colombia.  The work is great and funding could also be sent to them.   If the Lord so speaks to your heart to help with either or both of these endeavors, you could either send a check or money order made out to All Will Stand to: Tim Medsker 3213 W. Main St. Suite 407 Rapid City, SD  57702 …or donate via the linked page found above.  If the funds are sent or if God provides the funds a different way, then...

A Voice in the Wilderness (a-voice.org) – Paul Becker

Sadly the VW website is no longer available.  We were aware that the website was only paid up through early May 2023 and the company would not allow a check to be sent to pay for additional time.  However, the hosting company, that hosted the website was kind enough to continue having kept the website up, without pay, to this point.  There is a slight possibility that the website will be able to be secured and the hosting redirected, however, as a precaution, VW resources have been added to this website.   All of the VW books that were in my possession have been added to the Christian Resource Center and available to download in a PDF format.  Under the Books & Bibles Online, the VW-Edition E Bible is available for download, as well as purchase.  There is also a link to purchase a print copy of a few titles from the VW books.  You can also download a copy of the entire A Voice in the Wilderness website from a-voice.net.   With the jungle of ideas out there, truly the A Voice in the Wilderness website was ‘An Oasis of Biblical Truth – For the Last Days – the Bible our Sole...

The Tribulation Handbook – New Book!

The Tribulation Handbook: For When You Need Answers, by both myself and Brandon, the two people involved with this ministry, has been released.   You can click on the right hand side of the website to get a FREE e-copy from Barnes & Noble, the book is also available on Amazon and Kobo.  You can also click on the Left Behind? page to download a free PDF copy.   This book is interesting, as it is not written for people prior to the Rapture.  However, the book HAS TO BE WRITTEN prior to the Rapture, therefore it is available.  For those reading this prior to the Rapture, we recommend The End book, also available through all of the same...

Unaware

“But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.  For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and did not realize until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.”  Matthew 24:37-39   God tasked the All Will Stand ministry with laying on my heart to preach the Gospel and warn people about things to come.    Throughout the years of podcasts, shortwave radio, a bit of FM/AM radio, numerous articles and even books written, what is expected to be the final book is about to be published, with all of that information available on the ministry’s website.    This work I consider done and with that said, I will be focusing locally on talking to people face-to-face, as was originally done by myself, before such other endeavors.  Hitting the streets, handing out tracts and as the opportunity presents itself, proclaiming God’s truth to those who might listen as well.    This website and the associated ministry work with it has by no means ever been popular.  Nonetheless these things had to be proclaimed, they had to be said, the warnings had to be given.  Right now, there is still broadcasting going on in Africa, proclaiming the Gospel, warning those who might listen, the same things that were warned throughout the Americas.    As the opening verses state, that they ‘did not realize’ so too when all of these things...

Broken

“Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so persistently harasses us, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.  For consider Him who endured such opposition from sinners against Himself, that you not become weary and faint in your souls.  You have not yet resisted to bloodshed, striving against sin.  And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when you are rebuked by Him.  For whom the Lord loves He disciplines, and whips every son whom He receives.  If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not discipline?  But if you are without chastening, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons.  Furthermore, we have had human fathers who corrected us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much more readily be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?  For they indeed for a few days disciplined us as seemed best to them, but He for our profit, that we may be partakers of His holiness.  Now no chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields...

Enemy Territory

“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.  Put on all the armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.  For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against rulers, against authorities, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual wickedness in the heavenlies.  Therefore take up all the armor of God, that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.  Stand firm therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.  And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints; and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.”  Ephesians 6:10-20 VW-Edition   “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.  Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.  For...

Vicious

“And they did not repent of their murders nor their sorceries nor their sexual perversions nor their thefts.”  Revelation 9:21 VW-Edition   “Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.”  Revelation 9:21 KJV   How can something be written prior to describe what the attitude of people will become during the “time of Jacob’s trouble” (Jer. 30:7), better known as the Tribulation?  There is only one way to do so.   Using God’s Word, the Holy Scriptures, the Bible (Acts 17:11) as our guide, one can get a glimpse into the attitudes and hearts of the people during that time.  Knowing that things are going to continue to get worse (2 Tim. 3:13) and in 2023 watching and being ready (Matt. 24:42-44), believing that the time is sooner than later, though not knowing for certain, our societies around the world already appear to be showing us a preview of things to come.   In the opening verse from Revelation chapter 9, it has been said that ‘sorceries’ refers to drug use.  Of course our societies have become full of searching out witchcraft, things relating to demons, etc., that is certain, but it has also become a place where rampant drug abuse, legalization of drugs and even prescription drugs, some of which have serious mind altering effects, have absolutely exploded with no end in sight.    Writing this in the spring of 2023 there is talk in the news about ‘tranq’ which puts people into zombie-like statuses, with videos found online showing horrific blocks of cities with drugged-out people hunched...

Revived Roman Empire Article Expanded Research

INTRODUCTION As mentioned in previous articles, “The Night is Far Spent,” we discussed how the United States of America “COULD” be the prophesied Revived Roman Empire. This expanded article on the Revived Roman Empire got published to give some more fascinating evidence one could consider to support the thesis that the United States is under the control of the Vatican. Original Article – All Will Stand Website – Article Link: CLICK HERE Article – Night Far Spent ‘Chapter 7’ Revived Roman Empire (USA???) is also published in the Book Titled: The End. The book is available to read online for “FREE” at the All Will Stand ministry website. Charles Paschal Telesphore Chiniquy (July 30th 1809 – January 16th 1899) was a Canadian socio-political activist and former Roman Catholic priest who left the Roman Catholic Church and converted to Protestant Christianity, becoming a Presbyterian Evangelical minister… Reference Link: Wikipedia URL – CLICK HERE Charles Paschal Telephore Chiniguy published a book titled: Author of “50 Years in the Church of Rome.” He exposed the Roman Catholic Church’s intentions to control the foundations of America’s constituted governance. In his book, Charles says…”Then, yes! then, we will rule the United States [Rome], and lay them at the feet of the Vicar of Jesus Christ, that he may put an end to their godless system of education, and sweep away those impious laws of liberty of conscience, which are an insult to God and man!”…”D’Arcy McGee was left almost alone when the votes were taken. From that time, the Catholic priests, with the most admirable ability and success, have gathered their Irish legions into the great cities of the United States, and the American people must be very...

What Happened?

“Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed; in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”  1st Corinthians 15:51-52 VW Edition   “Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”  1st Corinthians 15:51-52 KJV   “For the Lord Himself will descend from Heaven with a shouted command, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.  Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together at the same time with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.

Cloudy, with a Chance of Jesus

“Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together at the same time with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.”  1st Thessalonians 4:17   Everyone has seen and experienced, whether partly or fully participating in the precautionary measures placed on citizens of their respective countries around the world regarding COVID-19, governmental and medical professionals dictated measures that were both voluntary and involuntary throughout their respective states and areas of authority.  Many followed these guidance measures out of fear of contracting the virus and becoming very ill or dying from doing so.    To this day, even in South Dakota, there are still a measure of people who continue to follow certain policies, even though they are no longer enforced or in many cases recommended.  The fear is still held in their heart regarding their longevity and well-being.  Yet where is the fear of God (Matt. 10:28)?   Late last week I noticed that the forecast had a chance for substantial snowfall in the Black Hills region of South Dakota.  Paying attention, as I must plan accordingly my work schedule, there was first a winter storm watch and finally a warning.  The snow began late Tuesday afternoon.   While both Dakotas have a well-known history of severe blizzards from time to time, nothing of that sort was being called for.  What would be considered simply a winter storm, in the era of an insurance based risk assessment from governmental weather forecast centers, was all that was forecast.  However, turning on the nightly news,...
