Those of us who have a substance abouse problem and are workiog a program of recovery... I believe being SOBER is more than not using or drinking, you must find what you think/feel your sobreity is to be, I can't tell you... It starts with being "dry" and then you move on to living "dry" and then I moved on to some sembalance of a spirtiel life, not perfect but working and praying for guidance and then I started to feel sober, I know the difference now between dry & sober... If this doesn't apply to you don't worry it'll apply to others... Don D.:-)



THINK About What This Is Really Saying???



AS YOU READ THIS, KNOW THAT NO ONE KNOWS WHEN THE END WILL COME!!!

There are many who think they will ride out with ease and never have to go through any hardships.

Did the Apostles ride out without any hardships, No!!!

Are we more special than they were? So many Christians are "just" sitting, and waiting to be taken to heaven, and believe God will see that they do not have to go through any hardships.

And, all the long refusing to use their god given talents to further the kingdom.

They leave it to the few to carry their load.

They are just sitting back in their easy chair, watching their favorite TV show and waiting on Jesus to lift them up to glory.

I do know, that if a person is not doing anything for the kingdom, then their life will have no real hardships at this time.

That just means they are not doing anything for the kingdom and Satan is not going to waste his time with them, why would he, they are sitting in his camp, he does not have to worry about them.

Are we not held accountable for throwing our God given talents out with the trash?

If everyone likes us, then we are not doing anything for the kingdom, and I can assure you that God is not pleased with that person.

If we are doing something to further the kingdom, then we will have enemies.

The closer to Jesus we get, then we will even have enemies within the church walls.

Again, why did the Apostles and thousands of others from then to now not get that luxury?


Matthew 24:6-31 you will hear of wars and rumor of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed.

Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.

Nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom.

Their will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

All these are the beginning of birth pains.

Then you will be handed over to bepersecuted and put to death, and you will be h**ed by all nations because of me.

At that time MANY will turn away from the FAITH and will BETRAY and h**e each other and many false prophets will appear and DECEIVE MANY people.

Because of the increase ofwickedness, the love of “MOST” will grow COLD, “BUT HE WHO STANDS FIRM TO THE END WILL BE SAVED”.

And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

So when “YOU SEE” standing in the holy place, the a*********n that causes desolation, spoken of through the prophet Daniel, let the reader understand, then let those who are in Judea “flee” to the mountains.

Let no one on the roof of his house go down to take anything out of the house.

Let no one in the field go back to get his cloak, how dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers!

Pray that your flight will not take place in winter or on the Sabbath, for then their will be great distress unequal from the beginning of the world until now and never to beequaled again.

IF THOSE DAYS HAD NOT BEEN CUT SHORT, “NO ONE WOULD SURVIVE”.

“BUT FOR THE SAKE OF THE ELECT”, THOSE DAYS WILL BE SHORTENED.

At that time if anyone says to you, LOOK, here is the Christ, or, there He is!

Do not believe it.

For false Christ’s and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to DECEIVE even the “ELECT”.

If that were possible.

See I have told you ahead of time.

So if anyone tells you there He is out in the desert, do not go out or here he is in the inner rooms, do not believe it.

For as lighting that comes from the east is visible in the west, so will be the coming of the son of man.

Where ever there is a carcass, the vultures will gather.

Immediately after the stress of those days, the sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light.

The stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.

At that time the sign of the son of man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of all the earth will mourn.

They will SEE the son of man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory, and he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.

Matthew 24:36 No one knows about the day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the son, but only the father.
