Prov 3:5-6
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
6 In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.
NKJV
Today is the 40th day after the resurrection of Christ. It is also the day that we should have completed listening/reading the New Testament, having started on resurrection Sunday. I pray that many of you have “had the time” and completed this journey with me. Currently I am in the book of Matthew, having completed my 5th time through the New Testament this year and beginning my 6th.

Truly I have spoken; truly I will bring it to pass.
I have planned it, surely I will do it.
Is. 46:11b
Oh boy, things are really getting interesting! And changing so fast it's hard to keep up. It's an exciting time to be alive watching so many Biblical prophecies coming together.
Wrath vs. Persecution
First and foremost, when studying apocalyptic scriptures in relation and application to our lives today, it's abundantly clear that God has already secured a Believer's fate. We win, and nothing can change that.
Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?...But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Rom. 8:35-38
So our salvation is eternally secure, but throughout the Bible, God warns of a future day of calamity, doom and hopelessness. Thankfully He also promises Believers will be kept from that day.
...having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him. Rom. 5:9
...Jesus, who rescues us from the wrath to come. 1Th. 1:10
For God has not destined us for wrath,...1Th. 5:9
At the same time, persecution for having Biblical faith is real in the past, present and future.
Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted. 2Tim. 3:12
Christians are being persecuted all over the globe every minute of every day. Satan hates believers and likes nothing better than to make our lives miserable.
Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. 1Pet. 5:8
By the grace of God, probably due to the overwhelming presence of the Holy Spirit, we in America have been, for the most part, spared open and ugly persecution. I don't think that will change much between now and the Rapture.
So as we get close to the end of this age, and our joyful and thunderous exit, we share information as a "watchman on the wall" so we can be wise and make good decisions. We need not be fearful, God is in total control.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. Prov. 3:5
And since our main purpose to remain on this earth after salvation is to share truth, we should pray for opportunities to share what we know.
..praying at the same time for us as well, that God will open up to us a door for the word, so that we may speak forth the mystery of Christ, Col. 4:3
So again, when we share eye-opening information, it should never worry you because worrying about something you have no control over is sinful. Rather, it's meant to be helpful in your decision-making process.
President Trump and Vaccines
I was watching President Trump at a news conference a couple of days ago, and he was talking about getting a Covid-19 vaccine ready. He said they're working hard so that everyone in America could have the vaccine, but then added: "Not everyone will want it." Whew, that is huge for me that he knows that!
THE Plandemic video that I put on our website (because YouTube and Facebook kept taking down access) had 75K+ views in four days. Wow!
The only problem is that we pay as little as we can for our web hosting services and those 75K views quickly maxed out our monthly memory allowance. I was notified that if it continued at the pace it was going, I would have to pay an extra $10K. We don't have that kind of budget so it was a deal-killer for us. :-(
Therefore, I had the Plandemic video linked back to our commercial Vimeo account that we pay for (and doesn't use up our website memory) and currently the video is still available. I imagine when they find it they will take it down.
If you haven't seen it, you should watch it (as one source of many—Steel on Steel!). As I mentioned, Dr. Mikovits is a lightning rod to the globalists, as she exposes their behind-the-scenes shenanigans. See Compass.org/plandemic to watch.
Globalism’s Perfect Storm

I think the article she wrote below is on par with her life—OUTSTANDING! It's a brief but powerful summary of what's going on in our world.
Globalism's Perfect Storm
By Jan Markell
Let me state at the beginning of this article that President Donald Trump is no friend of the “New World Order.” He is not a globalist. He’s an America-first guy. Yet he finds himself in the midst of a crisis that is foreshadowing global government.
This spring, former UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown called on world leaders to form a temporary global government in response to the corona pandemic. Brown stressed the need for a task force of world leaders, health experts, and others, as well as leaders of international organizations that could have executive powers to execute the response. And he wants an “executive” to run this new system.
At the same time, the U.N.’s Antonio Guterres called for a 10% global tax to prop up world economies. This would be an international “stimulus package.” The battle cry is, “A global response for global unity so no individual country can risk infecting another.”
The globalists have waited for a crisis—but who knew it would be health-related? Health is our most cherished value. If you lose it, you lose everything. It can involve pain and suffering. If you scare enough people with health-related problems, they will melt like warm butter in your hand. They will welcome anyone—even a Mr. Fix-It—who can guarantee them the basics in life, including a vaccine that will forever protect them and spare them pain and suffering.
Someone has to lead this New World Order. The Bible says it will be a man called Antichrist [BP note: This man actually first shows up as a world leader and eventually becomes the prophesied Anti-Christ half-way through the Tribulation], but he is not here yet. The Church must be removed before this man-with-a-plan can appear.
Enter Bill Gates, one of the world’s most prominent globalists. He is a younger version of George Soros and he is just as questionable. Sadly, he has billions of dollars to play with and he is doing so with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Right now their focus is a global digital ID that will be a part of a global vaccination plan. A plan to stop Covid 19 in its tracks. We are being told that no one is safe from Covid 19 until we get a vaccination.
Prophecy News Watch writes, “Bill Gates has emerged as a global authority in the wake of this virus crisis, funding vaccines and advising governments on how to respond to the pandemic. Gates was working to establish a global digital ID infrastructure long before the outbreak, which is now promoted as a way to combat the virus.”
The article continues, “ID2020—a project initiated by Gates’ Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, pharmaceutical corporations, and technology firms—is pushing the concept that every human on the planet needs biometric verification because ‘to prove who you are is a fundamental and universal human right,’ according to the ID2020 website.”
Gates is not the only one in favor of such systems. Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Dr. Anthony Fauci, who [has appeared] with Trump at the daily news briefings, recently confirmed in an interview with CNN that the idea of Americans carrying “certificates of immunity” is a possibility being considered to identify people who have been infected with the Covid-19 virus and help jump-start America's economy in the coming weeks.
I have worked for years with free-lance writer and investigative reporter Leo Hohmann who writes, “Why, in most states, are you allowed to go to a liquor store, pot dispensary, or a crowded Walmart but not to church? These are decisions the government has no constitutional grounds to make for American citizens.
“If politicians want to infringe upon these basic rights, then they should stop being cowards and declare martial law, thereby formally suspending the U.S. Constitution. You don’t get to have your cake and eat it too, snatching civil liberties while claiming the Constitution is still in place.”
Hohmann concludes, “New rules are being fashioned for us as we speak. Changes are coming for everything — how we shop for groceries, how we pay for products (cashless?), even how we greet our fellow man (no handshaking!).
“If you don’t obey these rules, you will be publicly shamed and blamed as exhibiting anti-social behaviors detrimental to the common good. The way we ‘do life’ may never return to normal if President Trump doesn’t intervene and take back the reins from these two doctors (Fauci and Birx) aligned with the vision of the United Nations, Bill Gates and a host of creepy NGOs like the Rockefeller Foundation and the World Economic Forum.”
Is ID2020 the “Mark of the Beast”? To have the “Mark”, we need a “Beast” and the Antichrist does not show up until the Church is removed in the Rapture. Is this a forerunner? It certainly could be. Are people who are pushing these systems apocalyptic players? They could be.
One-worlders occupy both political parties in America and are prominent in all major countries of the world. One of the most obvious globalists was George H.W. Bush. Others include Henry Kissinger, John Kerry, the Clintons, Tony Blair, Franklin Roosevelt, the Rockefellers, Emmanuel Macron, Gordon Brown, the banking empires, and dozens within [our government's] “deep state.” The climate-change crowd are motivated by one-world ideas.
There are many globalist organizations starting with the United Nations but also the Bilderbergers, Club of Rome, Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commission, Silicon Valley, the Vatican, and so many more. Pope Francis is called “the vicar of the New World Order.”
Their plan is hidden in plain view on the Georgia Guidestones, erected in Georgia in 1980. The first goal is to get earth’s population down to five hundred million people! That’s bumping off almost seven billion people. These are not nice people!
The world is crying for a leader. The European Union is melting. On April 20 Israel finally formed a shaky “emergency coalition government” after a year of government failure. Progressives in America would much rather see America’s demise than our prosperity.
Over half the world has asked the International Monetary Fund for a bailout. A cashless society is being pushed. A universal income is being promoted. The entire globe is reeling. World leaders are confused and terrified. And globalists never let a crisis go to waste!
There isn’t a storm coming—the storm is here. The globalists will seize this opportunity to install what they think is their perfect form of government and that is a one-world system. They have a major obstacle: The Church is still here.
Though there are shades of global government forming, it cannot blossom until the Tribulation. The Bible is clear that God has prepared a plan of escape for the Church via the Rapture.
I close this article with wise words from my prophecy partner Terry James. He writes, “The real pandemic facing the world today is 100 percent fatal—not only to physical life, but to life that follows physical death.
“It is the virus called sin. Each and every person who has ever been born on this fallen planet with the exception of One, the Lord Jesus Christ, is born with this spiritual virus. It will, for the one afflicted, without remedy, end with the person suffering the process of dying forever.
“This hellish, spiritual virus turns mankind against God. It thus brings about thinking that is upside-down—an insanity that precludes rationality. That’s what we’ve been witnessing for the last four years in particular. The Lord of Heaven has turned the anti-God forces over to a ‘reprobate mind’” (Romans 1:28).
And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper, Rom. 1:28
Terry reminds us, “There is coming a second new world order. It will be ushered in by King Jesus, who will reign and rule over an Eden-like planet that He will refurbish upon putting an end to Armageddon.
“Finally, at the end of Christ’s reign, there will be no more pandemics that corrupt and destroy God’s creation called man. The new heavens and new earth will provide the perfect environment—the utopia the globalists with their climate-change rants proclaim they want. But they will not be around to enjoy it. Sadly, they will have succumbed to the pandemic that is far deadlier than the coronavirus.”
Terry James concludes, “To avoid being terminally and eternally ill because of this terrible, spiritual virus, confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus Christ, who died for your sins. Believe then in your spiritual heart that He rose from the dead. Do this and you have God’s Word on it. You are now saved.”
...that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. Rom. 10:9-10

Measles Vaccine Rebukes Covid-19
If you had a measles vaccine, you probably won't get Covid-19, according to research done recently.
ATLANTA, May 10, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The report MMR Vaccine Appears to Confer Strong Protection from COVID-19: Few Deaths from SARS-CoV-2 in Highly Vaccinated Populations reveals that nearly all countries with few or no deaths from COVID-19 have also had large measles-rubella vaccination programs in recent years.
The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs reported that as of January 10, 2020, 82 percent of the population of American Samoa had been immunized with the MMR vaccine in response to a 2019 measles outbreak. The U.S. Department of the Interior provided funding to immunize the remaining eighteen percent of the population. The New York Times reported on May 6, 2020 that not only has American Samoa not had any COVID-19 deaths, it hasn’t had any COVID-19 cases at all.
Large measles vaccination programs have occurred in country after country with few or no deaths from COVID-19. Madagascar, a country with a population of 27.5 million people, vaccinated 7.2 million (over one quarter of its population) with measles-rubella containing vaccines in 2019. This was in addition to anyone previously vaccinated. Madagascar, like American Samoa, has had zero deaths from COVID-19.
Hong Kong is an example of a population which extended MMR vaccination campaigns to include many adults. A city with nearly the same population as New York City, and located just over 500 miles from Wuhan where the pandemic began, Hong Kong has seen only four COVID-19 deaths. By contrast, New York City has had 14,482 confirmed COVID-19 deaths and 5,313 probable COVID-19 deaths during the same period.
Under the theory of herd immunity, it is not necessary in any single population to vaccinate 100% of individuals to eliminate nearly all deaths from COVID-19. Instead, one has to only provide enough coverage so that the effective reproductive number (R) of the virus through each patient is less than 1, which stops the logarithmic progression. A drop in the R value below 1 likely explains why many populations with high MMR vaccination rates have reported so few deaths from COVID-19.
Principal investigator Jeff Gold discovered the correlation of MMR vaccination rates to COVID-19 death rates on March 18, 2020. Gold has since evaluated epidemiological data about MMR vaccination programs from dozens of countries, with each correlation verified by co-investigators William H. Baumgartl, MD, MSME, and Larry P. Tilley, Diplomate, ACVIM.
Gold’s MMR vaccine research was first published publicly on March 29, 2020, the same day his findings were forwarded to the National Institute of Health’s COVID-19 Research Team. Corroborating biological evidence was published twelve days later by a team of neuroscientists at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom, indicating that rubella is the component of the MMR vaccine active against COVID-19.

I had several people send me this link. I hesitated to pass it on because he has a large following and he's painting himself into a corner saying Rapture must be only weeks or months away. But there's a wealth of good info to hear in the video; just don't fall for the date-setting. Two years from now he'll look silly. To watch see below:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPvghpK3oxk
Again I must say how grateful we are for all the encouragement given to us during this unprecedented time! We have to keep remembering that God is allowing all of this. He's not surprised or dismayed.
Never forget, God's in control. We have eternal answers and the only thing in life that really matters is who goes to heaven and who goes to hell.
Use us, Lord!
Shalom!
Bill
for a wide door for effective service has opened to me,
and there are many adversaries.
