DAY 99: DOES GOD THE FATHER HAVE A PHYSICAL BODY? Genesis tells us man was created in the “image” of God, so some twist the idea to claim God the Father has a body. But that is not what the Bible is talking about. That false assertion comes from corrupt sources outside the Bible. Our being made in God’s image is not referring to a physical body because God the Father does not have a body. John 4:24 tells us, “God is Spirit.” We are not made in His image bodily! Instead, it is both morally and spiritually. Besides God giving humans some understanding of His morality, like Him we were also given a spirit that we will continue to use for our existence through the rest of eternity. The latter is why all of mankind, throughout every age, will exist forever. However, because of our God-given free will to choose whether we love or reject our Creator, by our own individual choice, each of our dwelling spots after this life on earth will be forever in one of only two places—with God or away from Him— heaven or hell. Because we have an eternal nature, one or the other will be the future for us, our ancestors, and our descendants. There is no annihilation after this life, as some false religions and cults teach. We are wonderfully made in God’s image, both morally and spiritually.

DAY 98: WHAT DOES TEXAS HAVE TO DO WITH BIBLE PROPHECY? As already mentioned, God prophesied the rise and fall of nations, and Jesus alone fulfilled over 300 accurate predictions, including being born of a virgin and through the seed of Abraham, as well as having his hands pierced, something God predicted even before the Romans had invented crucifixion. The odds of only eight specifically predicted events coming true—let alone 300—is exactly the same as this analogy: Let’s say we cover all of Texas three feet deep in silver dollars, mark one with a red X, and randomly mix it in somewhere across the state. Next, we blindfold a guy, have him choose a place to start, and make him wade through coins, having only one blind pick to choose the right coin with the X. What would you say his chances are? Mathematically, those are the exact odds of only eight prophecies coming true. Again, Jesus actually fulfilled 300 that God gave us in advance. With that in mind, can you see the tragedy of keeping this information from people, including Christians? Because society does not know, learn, or teach Bible prophecy, is it any wonder people these days are skeptical about the veracity of the Bible? Praise God for Bible prophecy, which drills into our heads the fact that Jesus is coming back and that no one has a brighter future than Christians. By God’s Bible prophecy, we can be encouraged with each of the 2500 times God gives predictions to prove the Bible came from Him (again, 2000 have come true and 500 are lining up right now). Do you see what all people, including most Christians, are missing because they are not taught basic Bible prophecy? I mean, give me a break! How much more proof do we need?!

DAY 96: SHOULD THE BIBLE BE OUR ONE SOURCE OF AUTHORITY ON THIS PLANET? [1 of 2] Yes! And Christians need to keep that truth! Don’t just give the idea lip service, have it on your website, or make it just one more doctrinal statement. Praise God that we can stick to that truth and never be steered wrong. Take it, cherish it, and hold tight to it! Instead of an empty statement, this truth has to drive our behavior. Many people, including professing Christians, do not follow the dictates of the Bible for what they believe and how they behave. Instead, they more value their own personal opinions, as well as those from secular society, the educational system, the media, and their friends. In practice, those are what people really believe in. But all that is just a hodgepodge of things from a fallen society; instead, we should take direction from God’s Word in the Bible. Just keep your path clean and pure with God because He never gets it wrong. Stick to the Bible as your only source of authority.

DAY 92: WHAT LIES BEYOND THE GRAVE? One second after you die—the first minute into eternity—you will find out. If there’s one universal truth in life, it has to be this: We all wonder what lies beyond the grave. Is it the end of our existence or the beginning of eternal bliss? Is it something to be fearful of or look forward to? And even though most people seem to be in the dark on this, one thing is for sure, your first minute into eternity, you will find out. To prepare you for eternity before it’s too late, our study One Second After You Die takes a look at the four basic questions concerning eternal matters. 1. Is There Life After Death? 2. What Happens When You Die? 3. Is There Really a Hell?” 4. Is There Really a Heaven?” As you will discover, there are only two options: up or down. Each of us is currently headed for eternal bliss in heaven or eternal torment in hell. Scoff all you want, but once you have gone, there is no coming back and there is no second chance. Please reach out and give your life to Jesus Christ today because One Second After You Die, it will be too late.

DAY 91: DO YOU EXPERIENCE GOD’S FRUIT? While taking a hard look at their lives, Christians read the Bible and often think: “What is going on? Something is missing here. Why do other Christians get to have an amazing walk with Jesus Christ, while I’m fumbling in the dark? I seem to have a fruitless life.” Here’s the good news: It doesn’t have to be that way! Our study Experiencing God’s Fruit takes a look at the various aspects of daily obedience to God which are needed to have a fruitful walk with Christ. You will learn the importance of having an obedience that is instant, appreciative, consecrated, unquestionable, individual, and consistent. It’s not that hard to figure out. If we want to live lives like the Christians in our history who did amazing things for God, we need to do something about it! We must be fruitful. We’ve got to be obedient to God each day. Otherwise, we’re just wasting time.

DAY 89: CAN PSYCHICS PREDICT THE FUTURE? [1 of 2] God, yes! Psychics, no! Despite the vague predictions and dismal track record of psychics, people still listen to them in hopes of learning the future. The irony is that the enemy of this world, Satan, has people so duped that they spend a lot of money on psychics, but then they distrust or ignore the one book, the Bible, where God has accurately given us the future. And there are 500 future events He has also told us about. You can know them for free, just by reading your Bible. Still, people want to look elsewhere, letting themselves be duped by psychics. Each year, $300 million is spent by people making calls to psychics. These yearly statistics about psychic visits don’t look great, especially for the ladies: - Of those who admitted to visiting a psychic, 39% were men, and 69% were women. - On average, men paid $2000 and women paid $5000 for psychic advice. - 3% of the men and 51% of the women used the psychic to curse someone. - 300 of the men and 275,000 of the women spent over $10,000 on psychics.

DAY 84: FOR WHAT DO SATANISTS MEET? [1 of 5] Just like the symbols we learned in our study of worldwide witchcraft (Witchcraft and the Rise of Wicca), when we learn what to look for with satanism, we can easily spot their symbols everywhere. Knowing most people won’t notice, satanists like to spread their demonic marking. They gather in abandoned buildings and churches, cemeteries, basements, under bridges, parks, and at business locations after hours, as well as areas that are mountainous, desert, or wooded. Also, like witchcraft, satanists meet monthly and sometimes weekly to follow their calendar of horrific events throughout the year. I’m going to give you a condensed version of the monstrous activities these pagans do to honor Satan. As I go through the satanic holidays, keep in mind that even 65% of the Christian Church do not believe in a literal devil, which allows free rein for those committing the evil practices. Ignoring this murderous issue— keeping our mouths shut—helps no one. The satanists’ carnage and debauchery begin on January 7th with St. Winebald Day, involving blood rituals (the spilling of blood) with an animal and/or human sacrifice and dismemberment. If human, this is supposed to be a male. January 17th is Satanic Revels, a sexual ritual performed with a child age 7 to 17! Of course, any murder, dismemberment, and human sacrifice of the innocent is wrong, but these people kill children. January 20th to 27th is when satanists abduct unsuspecting victims for ceremonial preparation and holding until their murderous Candlemas in February. Remember, satanists hold these killing events all around the world, and do so every year, without fail. It is all part of their calendar for worshiping Satan. And they make no bones about it, while good people allow it to happen by acting like it doesn’t. January 29th is for casting spells on St. Agnes Eve. February 2nd is Candlemas (also called Sabbat, or the Witches Festival), where satanists hold a sex and blood ritual with animal or human sacrifice of a female or a child of any age. February 2nd is also Satanic Revels with a sex ritual involving a female age 7 to 17. February 25th is St. Walpurgis Day with a blood ritual “communion” and dismemberment of someone of any age. March 1st is the Feast of St. Eichatadt, a blood ritual where they drink human blood (of any age, male or female) for strength and paying homage to demons. Unfortunately, that’s just two months, and we are just getting started on satanism’s murderous calendar of heinous crimes, which go on all around the planet—year after year.
