--Alpha News Daily (Daily Bible Verses ... Daily List and Index) (Daily Bible Reading ... you can start ANY time!)
A WISE Bible teacher once said a person's reaction to hearing God's Word when lovingly given to teach, to warn, or to rebuke is like a "Geiger Counter" ... and a person's reaction to hearing the Word of God (even those who profess to be Christian or Jew) was a pretty good indicator of their true relationship with God. The word "disobedience" means "refuse to listen."
THE
BIBLE is clear when it warns only those who love God and His Son (see Psalm 2 ... Messiah ... Jesus Christ In English ... Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew ... "His Name is called The Word of God"... Rev. 19:13) will be "saved" from Hell and will be lovingly and warmly welcomed into the Kingdom of Heaven (where there will be eternal life filled with peace and beauty and joy and laughter and excitement) prepared for ALL who will listen and will trust in God and in His Word ...
BUT, God has persistently and clearly warned Mankind (whom He created) of the great danger, pain, and distress for ALL who will reject, ignore, and deny His Word (Messiah ... His Son), and will "refuse to listen" to His detailed instructions on finding and following the "narrow" (and "difficult") path of safety through this life ("the Way"), and will end up utterly lost and trapped in the inescapable darkness, aloneness, and terrible torment of Hell AFTER their earthly bodies die ... fearfully called the "second" death ("where there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth" - Matthew 13:41-42, Revelation 21:8)
SO, if you find your heart hardening against God's Word when it is lovingly given to teach, or warn, or direct, or rebuke, please sincerely pray and ask God to help soften your heart towards Him and His Word (before it is too late) ...
"And as it is APPOINTED for men (ALL "Mankind" ... men and women)
to die ONCE, (when our "earthly" bodies die)
but, AFTER this
the JUDGMENT" (The first death is "appointed" for ALL ... the "second" death (HELL) is the one we should fear.)
(Hebrews 9:27) (God's Promise ...) (The assurance of life in Heaven ... it's NOT too late!!!)
This Week's News Headlines . . .
(In times of trouble ... Trust in the Lord, draw near to Him, earnestly pray for His guidance and direction, and seek His Will in your life.)
Note: With what appears to be a recent increase of prophetically significant events ... my heart trembles for all who refuse to soften their hearts toward God and refuse to listen to His Word (which was given to warn, to protect, and to save us.)

Daily Bible Reading: Ezekiel 10-12 ... Hebrews 11:1-19
--Alpha News Daily (Daily Bible Verses ... Daily List and Index) EZEKIEL is shown the Glory of the Lord leaving the Temple and then Ezekiel is told to physically act out another prophecy which is critical and crucial to the children of Israel ... Then in HEBREWS, God describes what faith is, and we are warned that "without faith it is impossible to please God" ... we are shown how through faith Abel offered a more pleasing sacrifice than Cain ... and by faith Enoch was "taken up" (raptured) so he should not see death, and by faith Abraham went out not knowing where he was going, and by faith Sarah received the power to conceive ... yet, all these men and women of faith died "not yet having received the things promised, but having seen them and greeted them from afar," and "having acknowledged they were strangers and exiles on the Earth." ... for their citizenship is in Heaven.)
A Lesson in Faith and Prophecy ...
ABRAHAM offering ISAAC (from Hebrews 11) ...
"By FAITH Abraham,
when he was tested,
offered up Isaac,
and he who had received the promises
was in the act of offering up his only son,
of whom it was said, “Through Isaac shall your offspring be named.”
He (Abraham) considered that God
was able even to raise him (Isaac) from the dead,
from which, figuratively speaking, he DID receive him back."
Note: Just as we have also seen God tell Ezekiel to physically act out crucial and critical prophecies ... so did God have Abraham act out a MOST crucial and critical prophecy ... a prophecy of when God would one day offer His only Son ("whom He loved") for all of Mankind ... and on that exact same Mount Moriah.
Also, in Abraham's mind and eyes, Isaac was dead for three days (from the time God told him to sacrifice his only son Isaac) before he (Isaac) was miraculously "resurrected" to Abraham (when God would "provide Himself a sacrifice") ... and ... it is the last time we see Isaac UNTIL he is united with his bride (Rebekah) who was gathered and brought to him by Abraham's servant Eliezer ("Comforter") ... just as we are told Jesus (Yeshua) the Son of God is now waiting for "the Comforter" (the Holy Spirit) to gather and present a "Bride" (including all ... both Jew and Gentile ... who will believe in and love the Son of God) ... and we are told the "Marriage Supper of the Lamb" is now being prepared in His Kingdom of Heaven for all who will believe, love, trust, and obey.)

Obama's Sec'y of Defense Panetta Says Strike On Iran "Could Hurt World Economy"...
--Jerusalem Post (Prophecies: The US will be "neutralized" ... then Russia and allies will invade Israel) (Just as Russia and Iran insured their "Dream Team" of Olmert-Livni-Peretz was in office and directing Israel's military before launching the Lebanon War ... so we must beware and be cautious as Russia and Iran now have their "Dream Team" of Obama-Clinton-Panetta in place and running America and directing our military. Just as Olmert-Livni-Peretz insured a de-moralizing, defeatist, and Kremlin-approved end to the Lebanon War (even to the point where Israel's enemies could falsely claim victory) so shall the Obama-Clinton-Panetta team insure no clear cut victories for our nation and forces. Both "Dream Teams" are fiercely and dogmatically Socialistic (which means Atheistic) with proven political loyalties tied closer to Eastern Bloc "Manifestos" than to Western Bloc "Constitutions."

Are Iran and Saudis Acting Out Messiah Prophecy Found In Ancient Talmud-Linked Writings On Isaiah ...
--WND/Israel Nat'l News (Prophecies: IRAN and allies will invade ISRAEL) (Prophecies: DAMASCUS-SYRIA will be utterly DESTROYED) What is also interesting about this ancient Jewish prophecy study is that "Aram" is modern-day Syria... and the verse in Isaiah 7:8 which often reads "for the head of Syria is Damascus"... should actually read "for the head of ARAM is Damascus." We are also told in Ezekiel 38-39 that when Iran and allies invade Israel, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait (Sheba and Dedan) will be sitting on the sidelines wondering if Iran and allies are invading Israel to "take plunder."

Daily Bible Reading: Ezekiel 16 ... Hebrews 12
--Alpha News Daily (Daily Bible Verses ... Daily List and Index) Through EZEKIEL, God graphically describes Jerusalem-Israel as an abandoned baby He rescued who turned into a beautiful young lady ... and then into the worst sort of prostitute ... He warns she had become worse than her sisters "Samaria" and "Sodom" whom He previously judged ... and that He will raise them all up (Samaria, Sodom, Jerusalem) again ... and because they have "despised the oath in breaking the (first) Covenant ... God says He will (sometime after Ezekiel writes this) establish a new Everlasting Covenant ... His Covenant ... and that HE will "atone" "for all they have done" (which is exactly what He did on the Cross). In HEBREWS, God is speaking to the children of Israel and sheds light on the "New" Covenant (see Jeremiah 31:31, Matthew 26:28, Mark 14:24, Luke 22:20) and the new relationship and the responsibility and the painful discipline placed upon the "sons" who are adopted through the new Covenant and whom He will lovingly chastise and train during this life ... "a new creation"... a new relationship with God promised to all who will embrace the New Covenant through His promised Messiah who "endured" the Cross and "despised" the shame for the Glory that was to come ....
Hebrews 12 also compares the terrifying sights and sounds surrounding the first Covenant given in the Wilderness ...
"For you have not come to what may be touched,
a blazing fire and darkness and gloom
and a tempest and the sound of a trumpet
and a voice whose words made the hearers beg
that no further messages be spoken to them.
For they could not endure the order that was given,
“If even a beast touches the mountain, it shall be stoned.”
Indeed, so terrifying was the sight that Moses said, “I tremble with fear.”
To the Heavenly majesty, beauty, and festivities surrounding the New Covenant ...
"But you (all who follow Messiah) have come to Mount Zion
and to the City of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem,
and to innumerable angels in festal gathering,
and to the assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in Heaven,
and to God, the judge of all,
and to the spirits of the righteous made perfect,
and to Jesus (Yeshua), the mediator of a New Covenant, (see Jeremiah 31:31, Matthew 26:28, Mark 14:24, Luke 22:20)
and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better Word than the blood of Abel.
See that you do not refuse Him who is speaking.
For if they did not escape when they refused Him who warned them on Earth,
much less will we escape if we reject Him who warns from Heaven.
At that time His voice shook the Earth,
but now He has promised, “Yet once more I will shake not only the Earth but also the Heavens.”
And Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) REVEALS the New Covenant ...
"And as they were eating (the Passover Meal),
Jesus (Yeshua) took bread,
blessed and broke it,
and gave it to the disciples and said,
"Take, eat; this is My body." (Look at the Passover matzah (matzoh) "stripes" and "holes" then read Isaiah 53 ...)
Then He took the cup, and gave thanks,
and gave it to them, saying,
"Drink from it, all of you.
For this is My Blood of the New Covenant, (Messiah fulfilling the prophecy found in Jeremiah 31:31 ...)
which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
But I say to you,
I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on
UNTIL that Day when I drink it new with you
in My Father's Kingdom."
And when they had sung a hymn,
they went out to the Mount of Olives."
(Matthew 26:28-32 ... also see Mark 14:24, Luke 22:20, 1 Corinthians 11:25, Hebrews 8:8, Hebrews 9:15, Hebrews 12:24)
IRAN USING BEATINGS TO PRESSURE CHRISTIAN PASTOR TO ACCEPT ISLAM ...
--WND (Prophecies ... FALSE PROPHETS would rise and lead many) For all who place their love, faith, trust, and obedience in Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) this life on Earth will be the closest thing to Hell they will ever experience (and endure) ... yet, for all those who reject, deny, or simply ignore Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) this short life on Earth will be the closest thing to Heaven they will ever see.
GOD warns the allotted lifespan for Mankind (whom He created) now has an upper limit of 120 years (Genesis 6:2-4) with an average lifespan of 70 - 80 years (Psalm 90) ... whereas the long life ("eternal" life) which has been prepared and is waiting for ALL Mankind (immediately after our earthly bodies die) ... will be permanently spent in either Heaven or in Hell ... (after the "separation") ... and will continue on FOREVER!
YOU will determine your own eternal destiny. YOU will decide whether you are "chosen" to spend your eternity in Heaven or in Hell by a decision you must make ... and according to God you only have two choices: YOU will either choose to turn away from ("repent" of) all the sins you have committed and place your faith and trust in God's Word ("Christ") and follow what He says (called the "narrow" gate and the "difficult" way, which requires a willful decision on our part to choose) ... OR ... you will choose to place your faith and trust in what The World (which the Bible warns is "Anti-Christ") says and will convince you to believe (as with the Serpent in the Garden) which directs you to the "wide gate" and onto the "broad way" (which is the easiest path and requires no change in our lives and seems right because it is so crowded and offers no resistance) ... BUT ... it is this "broad way" which God cries out and warns is a fearful and mournful path leading into a terrible (and inescapable) prison of darkness and torment "where there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth"... this is the "second death" which we are told to fear. (The assurance of life in HEAVEN ... it's NOT too late!!!)
Jesus (Yeshua) warns ...
"He who is NOT with Me
is AGAINST Me ..." (There is no "in-between"... and it is our relationship with Him that determines our destiny)
(Matthew 12:30) (God's Promise ...)
God warns ...
“Yet YOU say, ‘The Way of the Lord is not just.’
Hear now, O house of Israel (and ALL Mankind):
Is My (God's) Way not just?
Is it not YOUR ways that are not just?
When a righteous person turns away from his righteousness and does injustice,
he SHALL die for it (in Hell); (The Bible warns if we commit one sin we are guilty of all sins ... James 2:10)
for the injustice that he has done he shall die.
Again, when a wicked person turns away from the wickedness he has committed
and does what is just and right,
he shall save his life (and dwell in the eternal Kingdom of Heaven). (God's Promise ...)
Because he considered and turned away ("repented")
from all the transgressions that he had committed,
he shall surely LIVE;
he shall NOT die (in Hell).
(Ezekiel 18:25-28)
"Cast away from you all the transgressions (sins) that you have committed,
and make yourselves a NEW heart and a NEW spirit!" ("Born again!")
(Ezekiel 18:31) (Jesus warned one must be "born again" to enter into Heaven ... John 3:1-3)
"WHY will you die (in Hell),
O house of Israel (and all Mankind)? (God is now crying out and pleading with all to turn back to Him ...)
For I have NO PLEASURE in the death of ANYONE, declares the Lord God;
so TURN (repent), and LIVE (forever in Heaven).”
(Ezekiel 18:31-32) (The assurance of life in HEAVEN ... it's NOT too late!!!)
"Now may the God of Peace
who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus (Yeshua), (PROPHECIES of MESSIAH ... from the ancient Jewish Scriptures)
the Great Shepherd of the sheep,
by the Blood of the Eternal Covenant, (In Ezekiel 16:59-61 God prophesied a new "Everlasting (Eternal) Covenant")
equip you with everything good that you may do His will,
working in us that which is pleasing in His sight,
through Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew),
to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen."

will stand on the Mount of Olives,
which faces Jerusalem on the east.
And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two,
from east to west . . .
It shall come to pass in that day
that there will be no light;
the lights will diminish.
It shall be one day which is known to the LORD,
neither day nor night.
But at evening time it shall happen that it will be light." (Awesome!)

"And I will pour on the house of David

Daily Bible Study: Ezekiel 20-21 ... James 1
--Alpha News Daily (Daily Bible Verses ... Daily List and Index)
Excerpts and notes from Ezekiel 20-21 ...
"Thus says the Lord God ...
- I swore to them that I would bring them out of the land of Egypt into a land that I (God) had searched out for them
- I said to them, cast away the detestable things your EYES feast on, every one of you,
- But they rebelled against Me (God) and were not willing to listen to Me
- None of them cast away the detestable things their eyes feasted on
- Nevertheless, My eye spared them, and I did not destroy them or make a full end of them in the wilderness.
- Moreover, I swore to them in the wilderness that I would scatter them among the nations ...
- Because they had not obeyed My Rules (God will one day "pour out His wrath on ALL nations" for disobedience )
- What is the high place to which you go (for your abominations)? So its name is called Bamah to this day
- Will you defile yourselves ... when you ... offer up your children in fire (Today we call it "abortion"... God hates it!)
- What is in your mind shall never happen ... The thought, ‘Let us (the children of Israel) be like the nations (Gentiles)'
- As I live, declares the Lord God ...
With a mighty hand and an outstretched arm and with wrath poured out
I (GOD) WILL BE KING over you. (Exactly what He did on the Cross ... "King of kings and Lord of lords")
- Things shall not remain as they are (For God said He would create a New Covenant with Israel ... see Jeremiah 31:31)
- Exalt that which is low, and bring low that which is exalted. (See James below ... )
- This also shall not be, UNTIL He (Messiah) comes
- The One to whom Judgment belongs, and I (God) will give it to Him. (And a New Covenant written in His Blood)
Excerpts and notes from James 1 ...
"To the Twelve Tribes in the Dispersion:
- Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds (It requires faith to fully trust in the Lord)
- For you know that the testing of your faith (faith in God and God's Word) produces steadfastness
- If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach
- But let him ask in faith, with no doubting
- For the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.
- For that person (the one who doubts) must NOT suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord
- Let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation, and the rich in his humiliation (See above - "exalt that which is low")
- Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial
- For when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of Life which God has promised to those who LOVE Him.
- Each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire.
- Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin
- And sin when it is fully grown brings forth death (in Hell) (The assurance of life in Heaven ... it's NOT too late!!!)
- Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above (Don't ever boast or forget to thank God for ALL things)
- Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger
- For the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
- Therefore put away all filthiness and rampant wickedness
- And receive with meekness the implanted Word, which is able to save your souls (God's Promise ...)
- But be doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
- If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart
- This person's religion is worthless (the one who does not bridle his tongue)
- Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction
and to keep oneself unstained from the World.

Daily Bible Reading: Ezekiel 22-23 ... James 2
--Alpha News Daily (Daily Bible Verses ... Daily List and Index)
Excerpts and notes from Ezekiel 22-23 ...
- God lists Israel's sins and abominations ... including the "shedding of blood" (A warning to all people and nations)
- I (God) sought for a man among them who should build up the wall and stand in the breach before Me for the land
that I should not destroy it, but I found none
- Sisters "Oholah and Oholibah" (Samaria and Jerusalem) ... A graphic description of their sin and punishment
- Because you have forgotten Me (God) and cast Me behind your back, you yourself must bear the consequences
- When they had slaughtered their children in sacrifice (abortion!) ... on the same day they came into My sanctuary
- This is what they did in My House (God says He will destroy ANY nation who slaughters (aborts) their children)
Excerpts and notes from James 2 ...
- Show no partiality and give no preference to the rich over the poor
- Has not God chosen those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith ... and HEIRS of the Kingdom
- The Kingdom (of Heaven) which He has promised to those who LOVE Him? (We are to love God above all things)
- If you fulfill the Royal Law according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing well
- But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the Law
- Whoever keeps the whole Law but fails in ONE point is guilty of ALL (The assurance of life in Heaven ... it's NOT too late!!!)
- What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have (good) works?
- If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace,
be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that?
- Faith by itself, if it does not have (good) works, is dead
- Even the demons believe in God - and tremble! (Just saying you believe there is a God will not save you ...)
- Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up his son Isaac on the altar?
- The Scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”
- And he (Abraham) was called a friend of God (Jesus (Yeshua) calls all who believe and trust in Him "friend")
- For as the body apart from the spirit is dead ... so also faith apart from works is dead
--Drudge/Washington Times (Prophecies ... WARS and rumors of war) Obama and the Democrat Party's DEFENSE policies are based on Socialist (Marxist-Soviet) doctrines of weakening, crippling, and destroying America's national defense ... NOT strengthening it. Simply step back and watch ... every Democrat Party defense policy now strengthens Russia-Islam-China's ability to attack and destroy us ... and weakens our Military's ability to protect and defend us.

Our enemies ... from both within and without ... are now shutting down and isolating us from our strategically accessible supplies of oil. Our enemies know there will be no time during the next war to build the infrastructure, pipelines, and refineries necessary to provide the critical oil supplies which will be necessary for our survival. Russia is already deploying the military assets which would be required to block supplies of our strategic Alaskan oil.)

Daily Bible Reading: Ezekiel 13-15 ... Hebrews 11:20-40
--Alpha News Daily (Daily Bible Verses ... Daily List and Index) Through EZEKIEL, God warns He will destroy the false prophets who say "Peace" when there is no peace ... In HEBREWS, God continues teaching we are saved by FAITH and reminds us of all that Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses' parents, Moses, the children of Israel crossing the Red Sea, the walls of Jericho, Rahab the prostitute, Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and all the Prophets accomplished and endured through faith in something unseen and beyond this life ... and reminds US through faith we will endure trials and pain in this life in the hope and promise of what lies ahead after our earthly bodies die (as did Moses and the Prophets.)

Note: Many people today do not know whether or not they (or their loved ones) will go to Heaven. Many have not been adequately (or honestly) taught what the Bible actually says and teaches ...
"For by GRACE you have been saved (from your sins and from Hell)
through FAITH (in Jesus Christ),
and that not of yourselves;
it is the GIFT of God, ("Grace" is getting something we don’t deserve…we can't earn this gift of life in Heaven)
NOT of works, (we cannot enter Heaven through any “good deeds” we have done ... or think we have done.)
lest ANYONE should boast." (We are told it’s a gift from God … we just have to thankfully (and lovingly) receive it.)
(Ephesians 2:8) (The assurance of life in Heaven ... it's NOT too late!!!) (Prophecies ... The coming "Rapture")
"For God so loved the world
that He GAVE His only begotten Son, (see Psalm 2)
that whoever BELIEVES (trusts) in Him (to trust in Jesus alone to save us from all our sins and from Hell)
should NOT perish (in Hell)
but have everlasting life (in Heaven).
For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world,
but that the world through Him might be saved (into Heaven).
He who believes in Him is NOT condemned (to Hell);
but he who does NOT believe (in Jesus Christ)
IS condemned (to Hell) ALREADY" (There is no second chance for any who reject what God did for us on the Cross.)
(John 3:16-18) (Jesus greatly LOVED us to save us from Hell ... all God asks is that we love Him for all He has done for us.)
For the ASSURANCE of Life in Heaven (and of having ALL of your sin and guilt completely removed) . . . A.C.T. NOW!!!
- Acknowledge you are a sinner ... and have sinned against God's Law
- Confess your sins to God
- Trust (believe) completely in Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) ...
- He (lovingly and willingly) died for all of your sins on the Cross ... and His innocent blood washes away ALL our sins
- He was buried ...
- He was raised (Resurrected) from the dead the third day ... and now waits to see if you are "with" Him or "against" Him
- Turn back to God ... and turn away from sinful activities ("repent") ... He will welcome you with tears of joy.
When you believe and trust in (and love) Jesus Christ as your "Savior" (who lovingly saves you from your sins and from Hell) ... and then turn away from your sinful ways and turn back to God ("repent"), you can have the complete peace and assurance in your heart that when you die, you will enter into His Kingdom of Heaven ... forever and ever … it’s God’s Promise!!!
The ONLY thing God asks a NON-believer to do is to "believe"... Jesus (God) did ALL the work ... life in Heaven is offered as a GIFT!!!
Grace and Shalom
