A CHANGE OF VIEWPOINT

In late August of 1967, I was laying on my bunk in barracks in Subic Bay, Philippine Islands. I had just arrived after returning from Sharlene's funeral. Myself and two other swabbies had arrived about the same time. Something happened that we were forgotten for three days. We had been escorted to this barrack and left. We had no work assignments or reporting duties. However, most importantly I knew where the chow hall was.

I was laying on my rack studying my Bible. I had been studying End Time Prophecies. Laying out on the rack was a commentary on Ezekial, Jeremiah, Daniel, Isaiah, Revelation, and my open Bible.

As I lay there, I reached up and began to close each book saying out loud, "Whatever is going to happen will happen, Lord, just as you say it will. What I need to know now is how do I make it thru today."

You see, I had no time to grieve Sharlene's death. She was my first love, my first wife and now she was in the presence of Jesus. And I was straight across the globe.

For the next 30 years, I never taught on the end times. And now I see that I was wrong, my duty to my congregation was to teach and grow them in the whole counsel of God's Word. I have sought forgiveness.

Lately, I have begun to see what is happening in our world, the confusion, and the chaos. I have been studying more time as I have seen things going on and how they are pointing to end-time prophecies in the Bible. Studying so much that I have started changing my position on the end time. If and when I share it it will cause some arguing so I'm not ready to share it just yet. I still believe in Jesus, His death burial, and resurrection and His soon return to gather His church to Himself. 

I believe that as we open our eyes, physical and spiritual we will see what is happening in our world and not just the USA.

WE SAY ALONG WITH JOHN, COME QUICKLY LORD JESUS.
