Saturday, December
12, 2015, 6:37 a.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song, “Jesus, Rescue Me.” Speak, Lord, your
words to my heart. I read Matthew
4:12-17 (NASB).
Now
when Jesus heard that John had been taken into custody, He withdrew into
Galilee; and leaving Nazareth, He came and settled in Capernaum, which is by
the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali. This was to fulfill what was
spoken through Isaiah the prophet:
“The
land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,
By
the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles—
“The
people who were sitting in darkness saw a great Light,
And
those who were sitting in the land and shadow of death,
Upon
them a Light dawned.”
From
that time Jesus began to preach and say, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is
at hand.”
Eye Floaters &
Flashing Lights
On Saturday, when I began to write this, I was experiencing
a large number of floaters in my eyes which were interfering with my ability to
see (still are today - Monday). Eye floaters are like spots, specks or “cobwebs”
(a spider’s network) that “drift aimlessly” around in our “field of vision,”
which suddenly appear when tiny pieces of the eye’s vitreous “break loose
within the inner back portion of the eye” (1). They serve to block the light
and thus cast a shadow on the retina, and thus what we see are not the floaters
themselves, but only their shadow. I am nearly 66 years old, so this is quite
normal for my age, evidently.
Then, all of a sudden, when I walked in the house where it
was dark (or darker), I started seeing flashes of light out of the left side of
my left eye. I had never experienced this before. I didn’t know where the light
was coming from. I wondered if it was the light reflecting off my engagement
ring (of 44 yrs.), or off my cross necklace, but I couldn’t tell, so I removed
both of those away from my body, but I was still seeing a flashing light
(photopsia) out of the left corner of my left eye. So, I knew this was
internal, not external.
So, my husband did a search on the Internet, and we learned
that this had to do with age, and with the vitreous (gel-like center of eye)
liquefying and detaching from the retina. The vitreous is a gel-like substance
that fills the middle of the eye, which helps the eye maintain a round shape. It
serves as a collagen (connective tissue) between the lens and the retina
(Wikipedia). The retina is the part of the eye at the back that receives images
and sends signals to the brain about what is seen. It is the eye’s light-sensitive
tissue. There is a danger that, in the process of the vitreous detaching from
the retina, that the retina could tear and that vision could be lost
permanently, so this was an emergency situation. So, I had an eye exam Sunday.
I have a vitreous detachment but no retinal tear at this time.
The False Church
& the False Gospel
As I prayerfully and diligently studied this passage of
scripture, I realized that the Lord Jesus was using my real life situation with
the problem with my eyes (eyesight) to show me a problem with the world, and/or
with the worldly church, and its ability to see (perceive) the true light
(truth, the true gospel).
At the end of the age, in which we now live, there has been
a separation (detachment) of truth from the people (the light receptors –
retina). It has come through the liquefying (dilution) of the gospel message (that
which connects the light to the people), so that the people of the world and in
the worldly church are now in hot water (deep trouble). The church, which is to
share the message of the gospel, also serves as connective tissue between the
light of truth and the people who would hear and would receive the truth. The
watering down of the message has come through the messengers, i.e. via the
church, in particular the institutional church partnered with the government
(world system), parts of which have broken away from the truth of the gospel to
follow after a false grace gospel.
Because the truth has been diluted, it has resulted in these
eye floaters (those who have broken away from the true gospel and/or from
sharing the true gospel with the people) now blocking the people’s ability to
see the true light (Jesus Christ, the gospel, the truth). What the people see
are only the shadows of these floaters (symbolizing death), which are only
images of the floaters (The False Church and the False Gospel), but are not the
floaters themselves, i.e. these are distortions and deceptive images, i.e. this
is the shadow of death. In other words, the people walking (or seated) in darkness
may think they are seeing what is truth or what is real, but they are being
deceived by these shadows of darkness (death).
Instead, the light they are seeing is a false light coming
in from the side (from the west and/or secretly, in addition to, and/or in
separation from the true light). This false light is flashing, i.e. it is
broken, irregular, deceptive, and faulty, etc., and is not to be trusted. There
is a danger here that as the truth is diluted and is detached from the people
(the receptors) that it could pull at the people (the receptors) and take them
with it, which could mean that their vision (ability to receive truth) could be
lost permanently. So, this is an emergency situation which requires an eye
(heart) examination and possible “surgery.”
Climate Change
On December 12, 2015, purportedly 196 world nations accepted
a historic climate accord. These are some of the floaters (cobwebs) floating
around in our field of vision distorting our ability to see clearly, which have
resulted from this dilution of truth and detachment of truth from the people
(the light receptors). In the article which I read about the eye floaters and
flashing lights, it intimated that climate change can affect our eyes
(eyesight). It also stated that photopsia, often called “seeing stars,” aka the
light flashes, may occur after a blow to the head. In one of the articles I
read about the climate accord, it stated that “the stars for this assembly were
aligned” (2). I believe the Lord is making a connection here among “the stars”
aligned for this climate accord assembly, the stars we might see with the
flashing (false) lights, the dilution and separation of truth from the people,
these floaters in our field of vision, i.e. World Powers (Beast #1) and False
Religion (Beast #2), and this “climate change” which messes with our minds, and
can affect our perception of truth.
In other words “climate change” is a shadow (distorted or
false image) of these floaters (the beasts) which is what we see when they
block the true light from coming through or when they hinder our ability to see
clearly via these shadows (deceptions). What this agreement is really about is
just taking what they have already been doing to the next level. There truly is
not a crisis situation with “climate change.” That is a fabrication of the New
World Order, which is what this agreement is really all about, i.e. it is about
the rise of the beast(s), i.e. this one-world totalitarian government and
one-world religion, and it is about a time of tribulation and great trouble
(hot water) for the people of this earth. It is about the taking down of
sovereign nations, and the rule of this beast (one world order) over the people
and nations of the world. And, it is about the persecution and killing of
Christians, the destruction of the gospel, and the taking out of all who oppose
the beast (N.W.O.).
In order to pull off what they are doing they have to mask
it (disguise it) as something else. So, “Climate Change” is a mask (shadow) of
what is really happening, just as “terrorism” is a shadow (mask) of what they
have been doing in the conquering of national governments, the confiscating of
private property, the stealing of natural resources, the killing of innocents
and Christians, and the destruction of land not their own. These floaters
(Beasts #1 & #2) are symbols of death (spiritual death of people and physical
death to nations and to Christians). Their deceptions are shadows (images) of
the beast (beast #1 – see Rev. 13). They are the shadow (image, shape) of
death. And, the shadows (false images; absence of light) are what we see when
they attempt to deceive us with their lies, or when we believe their lies that
their assembly and agreement are about climate change, or when we believe the
US government and military and their allies in the New World Order are going
into other nations to rescue people, to keep us safe, and/or to fight
terrorists.
The “negotiators” of this accord are really the elite,
powerful and wealthy of the world who are the ones truly running the world, aka
“the beast,” which is a shadow government. They are spiritually dead, and are
doomed to hell, and they are trying to lead the people of this world to join in
with them via deception (the casting of their shadow on the people’s ability to
see, i.e. to perceive and to receive truth). They have agreed together to force
the people of this world into unity with this beast, i.e. with the New World
Order, and they have agreed together to bring about the death of sovereign
nations and the death of followers of Jesus Christ and the gospel of salvation.
In other words, for those of us in the west who have not yet undergone the type
of suffering for Christ as Christians in other nations have had to suffer, we
are about to enter a time of great persecution against the church, which will
result in the physical death of many who follow Christ, who keep his Word, who
do not deny his name, and who testify to his gospel of salvation.
One way in which this persecution of Christians in the west
has already begun is through a plot (deception) to paint all Christians (or all
western Christians) as bigoted, hate-mongers, disunifiers, intolerant,
hypocritical, and as religious extremists who must be dealt with. The powers
that be are presently building a case to accuse all of us, who hold to the
tenets of the Christian faith, of hate crimes against humanity because we hold
to the teachings of Jesus and his NT apostles, who taught that Jesus Christ is
the only way to God the Father and to heaven, and that salvation from sin means
death to sin and living to righteousness; walking no longer after the flesh,
but walking (conducting our lives) after the Spirit.
So, part of this “climate change” agreement had to do with
world powers agreeing to new international rules (laws) governing such things
as this that would force Christians into compliance with these rules, which
would require us to no longer preach the true gospel or face the consequences. The
people who sit (live or assemble) in this “shadow of death” are those who have
joined together to follow this beast (N.W.O.), and/or are those who are walking
(living) in darkness (sin) who are presently being pressured into conformity
with the beast and its false gospel. We can read about this in prophecy of
scripture, so we know this is going to happen. And, we are seeing prophecy
fulfilled before our eyes.
A Great Light
In contrast to this flashing light, which comes in thin
streaks from the side of the eye because the truth has been diluted and has
been separated from the people, is the true light, Jesus Christ and his gospel
of salvation. His grace teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly
passions and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives while we wait for
Christ’s return. Jesus died that we might die to sin and live to righteousness;
that we might no longer walk according to the flesh, but according to the
Spirit. His gospel teaches us that if we walk according to the flesh, we will
die, but if by the Spirit we put to death the deeds of the flesh, we will live.
The Christian life is a life transformed of the Spirit of God in heart, mind
and deed. Jesus died that we might no longer live for ourselves, but for him
who gave himself up for us. He demands repentance and obedience, i.e. turning
away from living in sin to turning to walking in faith and obedience to Jesus
Christ.
So, if you have been believing lies (the shadows of these
beasts), which are blocking your ability to see clearly the truth, I pray that
today you would turn from your sin, and turn to follow Jesus Christ with your
life. Also, pray and ask the Lord to show you the lies you are believing, i.e.
to show you where you are being deceived in any way, and pray that he will lead
you into all truth, and that he will give you all you need to stand firm on the
truth even in the face of great suffering and tremendous persecution for your
belief in Jesus Christ.
