This site is made in honor of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who gave His life for me and whose blood has covered over my transgressions and thus reconciled me with the Father to whom forever be the glory!

This site contains pictures, videos, commentary, links, posts, writings,etc. meant to in one way or another, directly or indirectly lift up the Name, the ONLY name, under heaven, given to men, by which we must be saved, Jesus Christ.

The postings on this site are meant to provide the believer with uplifting testimony from the Spirit. If you are a believer and feel there is anything which may be perceived as detrimental to the cause and/or advancement of the Gospel, please let me know.

My personal writings are meant to inspire, instruct, and instill a grateful spirit, for I believe it is only right to give thanks to the One responsible for all things and to stay in constant contact with Him.

In addition, this site will in many ways help us to stay awake, as we await THE DAY! It is my firm belief that it is our generation that will come to see the events foretold and pre-ordained before the foundation of the earth spoken of through the prophets and to John, the beloved apostle who "testifies to everything he saw—that is, the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ" and whose unveiling declares that "Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near."

Like always, LET US REJOICE IN THE LORD, as we "await in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed."

AMEN.

Catholicism

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2014/11/13/latin-america-less-religious-study/18946703/

In just one generation, Latin America has seen the number of people who identify themselves as Catholic plummet, with more people becoming Protestant or dropping religion altogether, a new report shows.

Why?

The most common answer was people saying they wanted a more personal connection with God.
Christ's sacrifice did away with the role of an intercessor, the role that priests used to play while guiding Israel towards the incarnation. Christ himself became that interceding lamb/sacrifice and so the need for a middle-party becomes less necessary. Relationship with God is intimate and that is non-existant with someone always in the middle like a priest. No matter how much a person may want to cleanse themselves through an institution, it is not the same when doing so with God and through God. God became man. God is personal. God is Father. "And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven."
