Good morning, blog readers, from sunny and cool (58 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 12 robins, 6 deer, 3 crows, 2 dogs, a bunny, a cardinal & a hawk or owl! Thank You, Jesus!

This morning’s headline, from Dr. Joseph Mercola, was most sad: “COVID Jabs Impact Both Male and Female Fertility.”

In the article, Dr. Mercola wrote: “The first COVID shots rolled out in December 2020, and it didn’t take long before doctors and scientists started warning of possible reproductive effects, as the jab may cross-react with syncitin and reproductive genes in sperm, ova and placenta in ways that might impair reproduction.

According to one recent investigation, 42% of women with regular menstrual cycles said they bled more heavily than usual after vaccination; 39% of those on gender-affirming hormone treatments reported breakthrough bleeding, as did 71% of women on long-acting contraceptives and 66% of postmenopausal women.

Other recent research has found the Pfizer COVID jab impairs semen concentration and motile count in men for about three months. In addition, “miscarriages, fetal deaths and stillbirths have also risen after the rollout of the COVID shots. In November 2021, Lions Gate Hospital in North Vancouver, British Columbia delivered 13 stillborn babies in a 24-hour period, and all of the mothers had received the COVID jab.”

How sad! Obviously, many of these “scientists,” don’t seem to care about the side effects of the COVID “vaccines” and may even be using them to depopulate the world, a grievous sin, according to the Word of God, as we see in Psalm 139:13-14 where King David wrote: “For Thou (God) didst form my inward parts; Thou didst weave me in my mother’s womb. I will give thanks to Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.”

Whether they realize it or not, many doctors and so-called “scientists” are playing God Who will, one day, hold them accountable for their sins. And, unless they agree with God they are sinners who need a Savior and believe Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) died on a cross for their sins, was buried and raised from the dead to forgive all their sins and give them eternal life (I Corinthians 15:1-4; John 3:16), they will spend an eternity in hell, along with all who reject Jesus as the Savior.

And, dear brothers and sisters in Christ, as the news goes from bad to worse, take heart: Jesus is coming! And, until He comes, we have His work to do. So, let us “fix our eyes on Jesus” (Hebrews 12:2), as we watch, wait, work, witness for, walk with and worship Him until He comes. Blessings, Doug (7/25/22)

Good morning, blog readers, from cloudy and warm (70 Degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk after a “tornado warning,” I saw: 15 robins, 8 crows, 4 blackbirds and a dog! Thank You, Jesus for Your protection!

This headline, from today’s Gatestone Institute, caught my prophetical eye this morning: “Putin’s Imaginary World Order.”

In the article, Amir Taheri wrote: “Putin is now inviting Iran, Turkey and Egypt to join what he sees as an expanded Eurasian economic bloc led by Russia. To achieve that, he is ready to expose some of the contradictions in his perverted world view.

Putin says he wants to invest $400 billion in reviving Iran’s moribund oil industry. But at the same time he is trying to steal as much of Iran’s market share in oil as possible by offering discounts on the ‘brown’ oil market, especially to China. Putin says his new world order would allow ‘each nation to choose its way of life.”

What will Putin do next? Well, let me tell you what the Bible says. In Psalm 83, Asaph, one of King David’s three chief musicians, wrote of a future regional war between Israel and her neighbors “to wipe Israel out as a nation, that the name of Israel be remembered no more (verse 4).” I believe (and I could be wrong) the “Gog and Magog War” in Ezekiel 38 and 39 will be preceded by the Psalm 83 War between Israel and her neighbors which, according to Bill Salus, in his book, “Nuclear Showdown in Iran,” will include: Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, the Palestinians, Hamas, Hezbollah and possibly Al Qaeda. The result (I believe): Israel will win this war and be living in “peace and safety” when a leader named Gog of Magog, along with Iran, Turkey and a host of other nations will invade Israel to “take a spoil,” only to be defeated and destroyed by the Lord God Himself. You can read all the details in Ezekiel 38-39. All I can say is : “Glory to God in the highest!”

We know, from Scripture, that God is not done with Israel. See Ezekiel 40-48; Romans 9-11. But, sadly, according to Zechariah 12:7-9, only one third of the Jews will accept and believe in Jesus as their Messiah and Savior. The other two-thirds will “be cut off and perish.” And so, I would say to anyone out there who is Jewish, please read Isaiah 53 (even though you are told not to) and you will see clearly that Jesus is your Messiah and only Savior Who died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (I Corinthians 15:1-4; John 3:16 and Isaiah 53, if you have the courage to read it). Please know I love you and will be praying for you. And, to my dear brothers and sisters in Christ, keep looking up for Jesus while watching, waiting, working, witnessing for, walking with and worshiping Him until He comes. Looking forward to meeting you all in heaven, if not here on earth before Jesus comes. Blessings, Doug (7/24/22)

Good morning, blog readers, from sunny and warm (73 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 23 robins, 8 crows, 5 bunnies, 5 deer, a blackbird, a cardinal & a finch! Thank You, Jesus!

Let me ask you a question: “Have you ever heard of “VAERS?” I’m thinking most of you haven’t. And, I am also thinking the government probably doesn’t want you to know about it because it tells you the weekly the number of adverse events from the COVID-19 vaccines. I hadn’t heard of it until I realized there was actually a “Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System” (VAERS).

Megan Redshaw of the “Defender,” reports: “VAERS data released Friday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show 1,350, 950 reports of adverse events from all age groups following COVID-19 vaccines, including 29,635 deaths and 245,676 serious injuries between December 14, 2020 and July 15, 2022. That’s an increase of 9,342 adverse events over the previous week.”

Note: Redshaw continues, “Historically, VAERS has been shown to report only 1% of actual vaccine adverse events. U.S. VAERS data from December 14, 2020 to July 15, 2022, for 6-month-olds to 5-year-olds show: 2,252 adverse events, including 76 cases rated as serious and 3 reported deaths.”

So much for “The vaccines are safe and effective,” as we have been told by the so-called “experts.” I would encourage you to watch “Mary and Polly” on the Children’s Health Defense website to learn more about the vaccines which, by the way, are not real vaccines, but “experimental gene therapies” with no liability from the drug companies if you are injured by them. P.S. That should tell you something about the main motive of those behind the push to get these shots into your arms: money and control.

Whether you realize it or not, the stage is being set for the coming of the Antichrist who will, according to Daniel 9:27, will sign a “peace treaty” with “the many” in Israel (some of the Jews will be skeptical of him), break the treaty after 3 and 1/2 years, go into the rebuilt temple in Jerusalem, stop the sacrifices, declare that he is “god” and rule over the world with an iron fist with the death penalty for all who resist his leadership. But, there’s good news: the Lord Jesus Christ, the Messiah of Israel and Savior of the world, will return to the earth, defeat all his enemies (Revelation 19:11-21) and answer our prayer for “His kingdom to come and His will to be done on earth as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10).” Hallelujah! Glory to God!

Yes, dear friends, Jesus is coming! But, do you know Him as your Savior? Because if you don’t, you will die in your sins and be sent to hell for eternity. But, you can go to heaven and be assured of that right now if you will agree with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) Who died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16). And, if you are a believer in Jesus, please know He is calling you to watch, wait, work, witness for, walk with and worship Him until He comes. And, please know I love you and appreciate your support of my blog. Blessings, Doug (7/23/22)

Good morning, blog readers, from cloudy and cool (64 degrees) where, on my morning walk, I saw: 26 robins, 7 geese, 4 crows, 3 bunnies, a cardinal, a crane and a grackle! Thank You, Jesus!

The above Scriptures, whether you realized it or not, made the headlines this morning:

#1. 5 Syrian soldiers killed in alleged airstrikes near Damascus (Jerusalem Post)

#2. Israel watches warily as Russia, Iran build stronger ties (Jewish News Syndicate)

As I have said before, there is a Scripture (Isaiah 17:1) which prophesies of the complete destruction of Damascus which I believe (and I could be wrong) will happen as a result of a nuclear strike from Israel. And, there is another Scripture (Ezekiel 38-39) which prophesies of a Russian-led invasion of Israel, along with Iran, Turkey, Libya and a host of other nations, to “take a spoil” from Israel, only to be totally destroyed by the Lord God Himself.

And, as I have also said before, I believe (and I could be wrong) we could actually live to see both of these prophecies fulfilled in our lifetime. Stay tuned and watch for these and the other “signs” Jesus gave us in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21. And, pay close attention to what Jesus said in Luke 21:28, “But when these things begin to take place, straighten up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.”

And so, dear brothers and sisters in Christ, let us “fix our eyes on Jesus” (Hebrews 12:2) and keep them there while watching, waiting, working, witnessing for, walking with and worshiping Him until He comes. And, if you are not a believer, please agree with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) Who died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16). Blessings with love and prayers, Doug (7/22/22)

Good morning, blog readers, from sunny and warm (68 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 14 robins, 6 crows, 4 bunnies, 3 doves, 2 blackbirds and a dog! Thank You, Jesus!

This prophetical headline which was published July 19, 2022 and updated today, caught my eye this morning: “Putin visits Iran on first trip outside former Soviet Union since Ukraine war.”

This article, from the Jerusalem Post and Reuters, stated: “Russian President Vladimir Putin held talks with Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khameni in Iran on Tuesday, the Kremlin leader’s first trip outside the former Soviet Union since Moscow’s February 24 invasion of Ukraine.

During his visit to Iran, Putin will also hold his first face-to-face meeting since the invasion with a NATO leader, Turkey’s Tayyip Erdogan, to discuss a deal that would resume Ukraine’s Black Sea grain exports as well as peace in Syria.” P.S. Read Isaiah 17:1 to see what the Lord does to Damascus (Syria)

So, “What’s the big deal with these three leaders getting together?” Well, according to Ezekiel 38:1-12, Magog and Rosh (Russia), Persia (Iran) and Meshech, Tubal, Togarmah and Gomer (Turkey) are among those nations which the Lord God, in the “latter years,” that is, of Israel’s history, will bring the armies of these three and others to Israel “to capture spoil and to seize plunder” (verses 10-17), only to be destroyed by the Lord God Himself (38:18-39:29). And, I believe (and I could be wrong), we may actually see this prophecy fulfilled in our lifetime. Stay tuned!

In the meantime, let us “be on the alert” (Mark 13:33, 35, 37) and keep “watching, waiting, working, witnessing for, walking with and worshiping Jesus until He comes. And, if you are not a believer in Jesus, do me a favor: Read Matthew 24 or Mark 13 or Luke 21. Then, watch the news and see whether or not you see the “signs” Jesus mentioned are coming true. And, if they are, time is of the essence. So, agree with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) and believe Jesus died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16). And, if you do, I’ll see you in heaven, if not on the earth before Jesus comes. Blessings, Doug (7/21/22)

Thank you for your faith and witness!

Good morning, blog readers, from mostly sunny, warm and windy (72 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 22 robins, 3 dogs, 2 deer, 2 finches, a blackbird, a crow, a grackle and my wife! Thank You, Jesus!

Check out these headlines from this morning’s news and you will see that the “rumors of war” are heating up like “birth pains,” just as Jesus said they would in Matthew 24:6, 8.

#1. Russia and Iran Are Threatening the World With a New Cold War (the algemeiner)

#2. Russia pounds Ukraine as Putin gets Iran’s Backing (The Associated Press)

#3. China threatens ‘strong measures’ if Pelosi visits Taiwan (The Associated Press)

#4. Prime Minister Lapid and Defense Minister Gantz (of Israel) warn that Hezbollah drones, threats could lead region to ‘escalation’ (The Times of Israel)

#5. Dutch farmer revolt against harsh climate law just the beginning, experts say: ‘There will be unrest all over’ (Fox News)

#6. Wall Street braces for economic ‘hurricane’ (Politico)

Yes, dearly beloved in Christ, He is coming! Personally, I believe (and I could be wrong) we are now in what I like to call the “first trimester of the birth pains” where, like the above headlines, we hear more of the “rumors of war” than the “wars” themselves, although the threats Russia made of invading the Ukraine which turned into a war with Ukraine, has shown us how quickly things can change from “rumors to wars.” This made me think of an excellent and scriptural book by Dr. David Reagan of Lamb and Lion Ministries, “Wars of the End Times” which lists nine wars of the end times.

And so, dearly beloved in Christ, let us keep watching, waiting, working, witnessing for, walking with and worshiping Jesus until He comes. And, if you are not a believer in Jesus, please, agree with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) Who died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16). Hoping and praying I will see you there. Blessings, Doug (7/20/22)

Good morning, blog readers, from mostly sunny and warm (70 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 29 robins, 7 crows, 4 blackbirds, 2 bunnies, 2 doves, a deer and a finch! Thank You, Jesus!

The word “diabolical,” according to Webster, means “of the devil.” And, we are certainly seeing more of his work these days. Here are some of the headlines and articles to prove it:

#1. Dr. Joseph Mercola: “Infertility: A Diabolical Agenda” details the World Health Organization’s intentions to produce an anti-fertility vaccine in response to perceived overpopulation, and how such vaccines have been used – without people’s knowledge or consent – since the mid-’90s.

Mercola continues: “The WHO (World Health Organization) has been caught more than once deliberatively deceiving women into thinking they were vaccinated against tetanus, when in fact they were being sterilized.”

#2. Children’s Health Defense Team: “In early 2020, as the COVID-19 pandemic unfolded, Michael Yeadon, Ph.D., a former Pfizer vice-president and senior scientist, realized that something wasn’t quite right with what public health officials were saying about the virus, and how lies and exaggeration led the public to embrace the experimental COVID-19 vaccines. The vaccines were unconventional in design, and despite the option to use safer benign proteins, all four drug companies (Moderna, Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson and AstraZeneca) chose to use the most pathologically dangerous part of the virus – the spike protein.”

#3. Dr. Joseph Mercola (Technocracy News and Trends): “In the wake of the COVID jab rollout and additional boosters, a number of health conditions are on the rise, including cancer, most notably cancers of the uterus, endometrial cancers, and very aggressive blood and brain cancers. Cancer has been on the rise for decades, thanks to dietary factors, but the COVID jabs appear to dramatically accelerate the disease process. Many doctors report cancer patients with stable disease, and those who have been in remission for years, will suddenly and rapidly develop Stage 4 disease.

Making matters worse, even though the COVID shots have been shown to be a complete disaster, the drug industry is already working on dozens of different mRNA ‘vaccines,’ thinking they now have carte blanche to put out whatever they want using this platform. And the reason for this continued insanity is because our health and regulatory authorities are corrupted to the core. They are completely dishonest. They’re covering up the shocking harms, and unless something radically changes, they will allow dozens of equally dangerous mRNA gene transfer injections to be put out.”

Diabolical, demonic and oh so sad! But, not surprising, as the devil who Jesus called “a liar and the father of lies” (John 8:44) is behind the whole operation. On the other hand, Jesus is “the way, and the truth, and the life (John 14:6).” Discernment is the key for the believers in Jesus these days for He told us, in Matthew 24:24, “For false Christs and false prophets will arise and show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect,” that is, the believers in Jesus.

And so, to the believers in Jesus, I say, “fix your eyes on Him” (Hebrews 12:2) and take up the “sword of the Spirit,” the Word of God (Ephesians 6:17) to discern the spirits and follow Jesus until He comes or takes you home. And, if you are not a believer in Jesus, the devil is thrilled because you are on your way with him to an eternity in hell. But, you can change all that by agreeing with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) Who died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life in heaven (John 3:16). Looking forward to seeing you there. Blessings, Doug (7/19/22)

Good morning, blog readers, from sunny and warm (66 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 23 robins, 12 crows, 4 bunnies, 2 deer and a dog! Thank You, Jesus!

This headline, from the 7/14/22 Jewish News Syndicate, caught my eye this morning: “Syrian military expert says only true deterrence against Israel: nuclear weapons.”

In the article, the JNS Staff reported: “Syrian military expert Brig. Gen. (Ret.) Haytham Hassoun said in a July 3 show on Al-Ikhbariya TV (Syria) that the only way to create actual deterrence against Israel is by obtaining nuclear weapons.

According to a report by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), he said that if Israel has nuclear weapons, Arab countries should as well. Still, Arab countries have been forced to make do with ‘passive defense’ and conventional weapons.

Hassoun also said that ‘an active approach, in this case, means obtaining nuclear weapons. Who said the Zionist entity is entitled to possess such weapons, but Syria or Egypt are not?'”

He continued: “It’s no use saying, ‘I do not want to possess nuclear weapons.’ We must have this weapon if we can.'”

Syria with a nuclear weapon made me think again of the prophecy of Isaiah 17:1 where the prophet wrote: “The oracle concerning Damascus (Syria). Behold, Damascus is about to be removed from being a city, and will become a fallen ruin.”

Let me remind you that Damascus is believed to be either the oldest city in the world or one the oldest. She has been attacked numerous times, been destroyed and rebuilt. And yet, this prophecy says she will be “removed from being a city.” Can you say, “by a nuclear bomb from Israel?” Stay tuned. I believe (and I could be wrong), we could actually see this prophecy fulfilled in our lifetime.

These certainly are exciting and scary times in which we live with a number of countries, including America, with nuclear bombs. Interestingly enough, the city of New York recently sent out a report on TV: “What to do in the event of a nuclear bomb!”

According to Wikipedia, the following countries have nuclear warheads: Russia (5977), America (5,428), China (350), France (290), United Kingdom (225), Pakistan (165), India (160), Israel (90) and North Korea (20). That’s a lot of fire power!

Yes, dearly beloved in Christ, He is coming! Paul said, in Ephesians 5:16, that we are to “redeem the time, because the days are evil (KJV).”That not only applied to the first century Christians, but also applies to us today. So, with the help of the Holy Spirit, let us, as believers in Jesus, “redeem the time because the days are evil” (and, I might add, getting more so by the day, hour, minute and second).

And, if you are still not a believer in Jesus, what will it take for you to become one? A nuclear attack? I hope not. By then, it might be too late. I often say, “If you are still breathing, you have a chance.” So please, if you haven’t already done so, agree with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) Who died on a cross for your sins, was buried and raised from the dead (I Corinthians 15:1-4) to forgive all your sins and give you eternal life (John 3:16).

Good morning, blog readers, from cloudy and cool (64 degrees) Wisconsin where, on my morning walk, I saw: 25 robins, 7 deer, 2 bunnies, 2 dogs, a blackbird, a dove and, get this, an opossum! Thank You, Jesus for the wonders of Your creation!

This headline, from Dr. Joseph Mercola, caught my attention this morning: “Pathologist Speaks Out About COVID Jab Effects.”

Dr. Mercola reported: “In the wake of the COVID jab rollout and additional boosters, a number of health conditions are on the rise, including cancer, and very aggressive blood and brain cancers.

Cancer has been on the rise for decades, thanks to dietary factors, but the COVID jabs appear to dramatically accelerate the disease process. Many doctors report cancer patients with stable disease, and those who have been in remission for years, suddenly and rapidly develop Stage 4 disease.

A military whistleblower has come forward with data from the Defense Medical Epidemiology Database (DMED) showing dramatic increases in medical visits for cancers and other conditions post-jab.” Note: See the rest of the article for possible remedies.

I hope by now you have realized our government and many of our doctors have, most likely, for money and to keep their jobs, lied to us about the “vaccines” (which are not vaccines at all, but experimental gene therapies) with no liability (hello!). I would encourage you to look at the VAERS website to see the weekly and total numbers of adverse reactions and deaths from the “vaccines.”

Whether you realize it or not, this is just another “sign” leading up to Jesus’ return. Hear what He said about this in Matthew 24:11, 12: “And many false prophets will arise and mislead many. And because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold,” that is for Jesus and other people. And so, what is the answer to all this “lawlessness?” Answer: John 3:16 where Jesus said: “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life.”

This world and most of the people in this world are looking for a Savior, but it is not Jesus. The Bible calls him the antichrist (I John 2:18, 22; 4:3; II John 7) who you can know more about in Revelation 13. Personally, I believe (and not all Christians do) in a “pre-trib rapture” of the church” where Jesus will, at some unknown time in the future, come for His bride, the church, made up of all “born-again” Christians (John 3:3) who have been saved by God’s grace through faith in Christ and not by works (baptism, confirmation, church membership, the sacraments, prayer, etc., but by agreeing with God you are a sinner who needs a Savior Who is Jesus (Romans 3:23, 24) Who died on a cross for our sins, was buried and raised from the dead to forgive all our sins and give us eternal life (Ephesians 2:8, 9; I Corinthians 15:1-4; John 3:16). That, my friends, is the “good news” of the gospel!

And so, regardless of what you believe about COVID or the “vaccines,” what you believe about Jesus is much more important, for He will determine where you spend eternity (heaven or hell). My prayer is that you will believe in Jesus as your Savior and I’ll see you in heaven. Blessings, Doug (7/17/22)
