It is no mystery that around half the population believe, and some embrace the lies told about it as they are to-die-for. Other notions are not left out. Not only half those here are sliding down this slipper slope of gargantuous political and religious lies, have no clue as to what has precipitated this awesome time which is abounding by the day. After relying on the "News Media," so called, for what they pass if off as being the news, it's a great wonder if there is even a tenth of what flows from our TVs is true.

Although so many are deaf and blind to what the truth is, and the lies that's broadcast from the swampy bogs are too often swallowed, hook, line, and sinker – the truth can be found in the Scriptures for those who will do some serious searching. As great as it is to read and hear the scriptural facts, it cannot compare to hearing that word by the Holy Spirit, which is priceless. Such as a verse in the Old Testament tells us very clearly what the major cause is of today's insane diatribe that streams daily from delusional pundits of political persuasions. Even so, there is a verse Ecclesiastes that will hopefully clarify some things. I touched upon this quite a number of years ago, but bares noticing it once more today; for it fits very well, that is when you hear it by the Spirit.

"Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a child, and thy princes eat in the morning! Blessed art thou, O land, when thy king is the son of nobles, and thy princes eat in due season, for strength, and not for drunkenness!" Ecclesiastes 10:16-17.

With these two verses in mind, let us ask — who is your king? Perhaps it is one of those the mentioned in the paragraph below;

When a child or evil men rule over any of these kingdoms, WOE TO THAT LAND!

We will spare the time and space by not listing the scriptures that also speaks of EVIL men and women who wreaked as much havoc on their nations as what we are in today. Whether the kings are evil adults or are children, the end has always been very much the same – WOE!!!

Each and every one of these kingdoms have been, and most are still at the mercy of those squirrels who rule over them, whether the insanity is poured out by one person, such as the President, or his nefarious advisors, not to mention our congress. When those who do rule from political illusions, delusions, erroneous imaginations, inexperience, poor judgment, but very often the evil that is birthed from narcissistic aggrandizement. Regardless of the cause (childhood, ignorance, incompetence, dementia, or evil) the result is the same:

WOE NOT ONLY TO THEM, but also, WOE TO THOSE WHO ARE RULED OVER! When knowledge, wisdom, and/or care are lacking, and his or her childish and/or evil notions are seldom the best for themselves, or especially not for those who are under their heavy hand. It matters not if a hand full of subjects, or over 330 million of them are being "over" ruled, WOE will always be what is reaped!

Could we have ever imagined such could befall the home of the brave and land of the free? Believe it or not, that dark cloud has overshadowed us for quite some time, and their never ending goal is gaining total dominion, forever. And simply put, these subterranean individuals are much closer to the finish line than we've ever known. We pray that it never becomes a reality, yet that is to be seen if it does or not. Some, of course, maintain that nothing is wrong with the way this nation is being led, while others see this reality staring them squarely in the face. They who are awake (not woke), understand the foreboding danger that looms before us.

Notwithstanding, when our King is full-grown and of noble blood, how blessed is the kingdom. From the least to the greatest prosperity abounds. What a difference from when a child and/or evil rules, regardless of his or her age, and please know, that we speak of all segments of life which includes the church, the government, corporations, as well as our personal lives!

We have talked about coming into maturity, of ruling with Christ, doing exploits, and of setting creation free from bondage; yet, not much of this has been known in years past. What we have mostly seen have been woes upon the land. The church is basically powerless, the mass of humanity know nothing about God or His Kingdom. Diseases are running rampant, mental illness holds hordes captive in their own minds, addictions flood the world, crime sweeps through cities like pounding tidal waves. Prisons are overflowing, human life is becoming more worthless than the a pair of shoes.

Children are murdering children and their parents, young mothers are killing their unborn and newborn babies. Truly, the love of many has waxed cold. So, we ask, is this the fruit of God’s Kingdom? Not by any means! For when children and evil men and women reign, woe is their harvest!.

Before continuing on, let us take note of times and dates for a moment. For instance, dates are for the service of man, not for God. You see, Adam is a creature of time. He couldn’t function without a time-table. From the core of man’s being he, has been bound by time. It says that God "...set the world (Heb. 'olam, eons, or ages) in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God makes from the beginning to the end." Ecclesiastes 3:11.

Until Christ releases him from those chains, he will remain a ground-bound creature of time. It is from there that he will often rule with man's passions and evil intent which is flooding this nation as these few words are being shared.

God does things in the sphere of time; but that is primarily for man’s sake and not His. He manifests both good and evil during given time-periods. Furthermore, if we are permitted to peer from the heavens, we can see it being swallowed in the whole of eternity. Proper perception will come, and then we will see how all things, small and great, fit together perfectly, and the element of time is surely a part the unfolding scene.

Even so, let us not pay much attention to calendars, for like the trees men cut in the forest, carve, and deck with gold, they have no power over us. This, however, did not stop thousands, perhaps millions, from being panic stricken when the year 2000 drew ever closer. Yet, if we recall, that year did not bring the end to the world, as the false prophets declared. It was no more eventful than the previous years as well as those that followed, even more than twenty-four years and billions of miles down the road.

There was certainly plenty of evil to go around in 2000 but no more than any other year. And it was not due to the power of the year or because children were ruling.

The previous century was filled with such horrendous things that many believed it was the end of the world. World War I, the war to end all wars, swept like a cloud of death over Europe from 1914 to 1918. This was fourteen years after the turn of the century as corrupt and/or men ruled in the world as children, some evil, ruled in the church.

Was it man’s calendar or man himself that caused it? It was the greed of man, his ego, and germane politics. The calendar had nothing to do with any of it. The children as well as the evil ruled in those days, while the nobles remained in the shadows.

Twenty-nine years after the turn of the century, the Great Depression hit. Overnight, the economies of the world came crashing down, and what do you suppose brought it on? Was it man’s calendar or was it man himself? I believe the answer is obvious. It was man himself along with God's judgment, for unlearned children and evil were still ruling.

Soon afterwards World War II broke out in Europe and the South Pacific where countless soldiers were killed. At least six million Jews, three million Christians, and no telling how many gypsies were starved, medically experimented on, and used for extermination by the Nazis in their concentration camps. The war and the holocaust took place during five or six calendar years; but man had his indelible seal in every drop of blood shed by his hapless victims.

If you could ask the casualties of every war; such as, those of the two world wars, Korea and the Vietnam wars, Bosnia, Kosovo, to name a few, and see what they would say. Even in our lifetime we have known no time that war was not raging somewhere in the world, even on our streets, schools, and just about every other place evil chooses to go.

Please ask the surviving victims and see if they will tell you that wars were and are not the ill-fated events of the calendar, but the products of man's greed and lust for power. For such is the outcome when the children and evil rule and not the nobles of the King. Not only does the church suffer, but the whole world as well. You won’t find much argument from the congregations of the church system about being called the children of God. When a man or woman is questioned about what they are, the answer will be one of two things: "I am just a sinner saved by grace," or "I am a child of God."

Either my memory fails me or there is no place in the Bible where it says anything about people being sinners saved by grace. Paul wrote, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." And, "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God." Romans 3:23 & Ephesians 2:8. But there is no place that says anyone is a sinner saved by grace.

Moreover, "Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God." 1 John 3:9. If you disagree, take it up with He who inspired the verse.

There are, however, scriptures which refer to believers being the children of God, so claiming to be a child of God can be a true statement, and we rejoice because of it. God has so many children that only He knows the number. They are in every denomination and non-denomination of the world, in every sect and walk of life. He knows no borders when it comes to birthing children into His Kingdom. He is a true Father. However, let us not be deceived into thinking He turns over the scepter of the Kingdom to His unlearned children. Regardless of how much God loves them, children are never recognized by Him as rulers. He didn’t even set Jesus upon His throne until He was thirty years old. At the age of twelve, Jesus knew He was the Son of God; but it took eighteen more years of preparation before He was inaugurated by John the Baptist, and for those eternal words to be trumpeted into the realm of time — "This is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased, hear ye Him." Matthew 17:5.

As for myself, it was more than 10 years after receiving the prophecy that I would be writing the Word of God, that it would be going all over the world, and to not let any one, not even pastors and Biblical teachers to stop this calling. The prophecy went on to say preachers and pastors would come against me, but to neither let it stop me nor slow me down; for this would not be man's word, but the Word of God!

After more than 10 years past by, although I had detested writing, I found myself pleasantly being driven inwardly to write that which I was receiving from Holy Spirit. I would write on anything (a scrap of paper, restaurant napkins, etc) when the inspiration came. I first started writing the messages in longhand, mailing them to 20 friends and relatives who I felt would be blessed by what came to me from the throne.

It was not long before we invested in a small electric typewriter which made it much easier. A year had not past before our mailing list grew from 20 to more than a thousand subscribers all over the world. To date and according to the website's homepage hit counter, there has been almost three quarters of a million (732, 177) readers on our website at godfire.net.

Below is a website map showing from where these visits came. Each dot represents 10 or more hits on our website's homepage, godfire.net:

What is strange, to say the least, the minister who gave me the prophecy was the first one to come against what I had written, and unwittingly he fulfilled a portion of what he had declared would come to pass. The brother again said:

Notwithstanding, Jesus was adopted (placed) as a mature Son of God prior to preforming his first miracle at the wedding feast or being sent into the wilderness to be tested. He had always been a Son, even before the world was (John 17:5, 24), yet it was not until then that He was manifested as such.

People try to figure out things about Him that cannot be known by man alone. They pore over the scriptures and historical records. They calculate, and pinpoint supposed dates on the calendar when certain things might have taken or will take place. They then deck those dates with gold and silver. They secure them with the nails of devotions, creeds and dogma. What is sad is that they then worship those dates. They may not kneel on hands and knees as the Islamics practice; but there are give to those manmade, fashioned figures as if they contain anointed entities deserving of such platitudes. In so doing they miss the true, anointed eternal Son of God who has always been, He who is, and shall always be. They worship the date they designated as when He was crucified, yet for the record, it says that He, the Lamb was slain from the foundation of the world (Revelation 13:8).

From the foundation of the world is something to which man will have trouble assigning an exact date; but if it were possible, I am sure they would do it. They would then lay out that segment of time as if it was overlaid it with gold, and worship it. Men are date happy. If they can’t find enough "holy" days to which to give themselves, they will exalt men of their own stature and stamp the calendar with their names.

There is no doubt in my mind that there are certain men and women that were and are chosen vessels of God, and we know some of them. Although more than a few have been raised by others, and some have elevated themselves, they do not deserve be held on high as gods. Some have been driving by god's force and were powerful tools who gave their lives without hesitation. As human standards go, they were great men and women, martyrs, if you please of the Almighty; but why do we need special days in their honor? My questioning in no way distracts or eliminates them from being God’s anointed ones. That is a simple fact which would be difficult to refute. Nevertheless, regardless of whether one believes they have been chosen of God or not, we want to note that nowhere in the Bible are we ever encouraged to pay homage to any of the days of our Lord.

Even though there would be no atonement without the death of Jesus, the Bible is silent when it comes to pinpointing the precise date. There is no place in Holy writ where it even suggests we should observe that day as one to which we should give ourselves. Since this is so, why would we take mere men of dust and honor them with days on a calendar?

Prior to Jesus coming and fulfilling the Law, there were holy days practiced in the Old Testament; such as, Passover, Pentecost, Tabernacles, and more. Yet, don’t we realize they were instituted by God as shadows of those things to come. They foretold of what we would enter into by the Spirit of Christ. They spoke of things in picture form so we could get a glimpse of them in the spirit. The lamb slain upon the altar spoke of the cross and Golgotha. His crucifixion pointed to the death of the old and life of the new man of our being.

When that to which the shadow referred came, the shadow ceased. That is why there are no more animal sacrifices to atone for our sin. Jesus fulfilled Passover. He died once — for all. Passover came to a full head in Him. And to make sure men knew the shadow had ended; He sent His angels, Titus and his army, to destroy Jerusalem and the temple (Matthew Chapter 24).

It appears that He started the housecleaning when He drove the sacrificial animals and money changers from the temple . He brought an end to those days of sacrifice, and likewise with the other holy days. He brought them to an end by filling them up with Himself, and they all have either been fulfilled, they are presently being fulfilled in us. Moreover, being the good housekeeper that He is, the cleaning will not cease until the job is finished.

Therefore, my friends, why do we continue marking our calendars and worshiping those days? I can only conclude that the feast days have not become realities in our lives. If they were real, the outward practice would surely cease.

And I might add — there is no amount of practicing those holy days outwardly that will bring them to pass in anyone’s life or in the church as a whole. We simply cannot do anything carnal that will manifest the Spirit. We can beat drums all day long. We can chant, rant, and rave. We can fast and make all kinds of promises. We can beg and plead, and we can flay our bare backs with stinging nettles; but the fire of God will not bow to man’s theatrics and consume the evening sacrifice.

It is when Passover, Pentecost, and Tabernacles have been fulfilled in our lives that the fire from heaven will devour it and lick up the twelve barrels of water in the trench round about it. Acting Pentecostal, or observing Tabernacles, will not impress God or prompt Him to act. He is not obligated by what we do or don’t do in the might of our own religious imaginations, for it is done in the natural. And that which is natural comes from the reign of children or those who are evil in their heart. They are certainly not from the noble sons of the King. And "Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a child, and thy princes eat in the morning!

We may question why there would be a problem with the princes eating in the morning, especially since we are told by nutritionists that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. When read from other translations we soon see it is speaking of more than merely eating breakfast. All the other versions I have checked use the word feast rather than eat. The Hebrew word ('akal) can be used with a great deal of latitude, depending on the context of the verse. And here, it is clear that the eating is feasting, and it is not for nutritional purposes, but for drunkenness, which verse 17 brings out.

Do you suppose there is drunkenness with the princes, the high-ranking officials of the church? Absolutely! There’s no question about it. Not only in the natural sense, but especially in the spiritual. They are feasting continually—morning, noon, and night, and it is for their own purpose and not that of the Lord's. Their feasting is not so much on natural wine and strong drink as it is the spirit of things.

You see, the spirit of something is its life, which can be a number of things. The crushing and aging of the fruit of the vine releases its hidden life in the same way the crucifixion released the hidden life of Jesus. Until then, His life was locked within Himself. No one else could partake of it unless it was released by Him in His Word or Deed.

He was sweet to be around, like a cool glass of grape juice; but after His death and resurrection, His life could be taken in by every soul. The New Wine of the Kingdom filled men's souls in a new and living way. His Spirit became their lives. And so it is today. The sons feast and drink in due season, while others unreliably feast for themselves. We all have seen it ourselves—children without understanding ruling in the church and government. The elders, congregations, politicians, their minions alike, eating and drinking doctrines and knowledge unto senseless illusions.

That which they consume may or may not be the truth. .Either can induce intoxication. There is a spirit in both that one can drink. The true doctrine can have the Spirit of Christ or the spirit of man. Just because the doctrine is accurate does not necessarily mean it is accompanied by the Spirit of Christ. A carnal child of God can parrot a truth by the power of his own spirit, and those who drink it can be lifted in their spirits by that wine. Drink enough, and they can become intoxicated. They may do all sorts of Pentecostal things, so called, while under the influence of that wine. And woe to the land when that happens.

This takes place in every rank and file of the church. Man's wine flows freely in the morning when they should be serving grits, oatmeal, and cornflakes. Rather than strengthening men and women with a pure Word and Spirit in due season, they are encouraging them to drunkenness. They stagger around under the influence of teachings on the Rapture, the Trinity, Water Baptism, Holy Ghost Baptism, Baptism by Fire, Holy Mary Mother of God, Worship of Saints, the Sabbath, Holy Days and No Holy Days, Kingdom of God, The Sons of God, ad infinitum.

Some of the above are doctrines that should be taught and the others would be better off buried in the salt beds at Carlsbad, NM, 2000 feet underground at the Waste Isolation Plant with the rest of the world's toxic waste. I won't tell you which ones belong there; but I will say that any teaching can cause intoxication, depending on who receives it, when and how it is taught, and by whom. There are varying factors involved that determine whether a teaching brings life and strength or drunkenness and death. And when received wrong — woe to the land, inwardly and outwardly!

When children are kings, they like to play church, rather than being the Church, and there is a vast difference. Do you remember as a child when you would play house with your brothers and sisters, cousins, or friends? The little boy would be the father, the girl the mother, and one or two others would be the children. If there was a shortage of playmates, dolls were the kids. The mother would pretend to cook up a meal, while the father would be off to work. And, of course, both the mother and father would boss and scold the children with great authority, even make them stand in the corner from time to time, or feign a spanking. On occasions the spanking became too real, and the real Momma heard about it.

Most of us as children played house or doctor. Those were a couple of things we could do in terms of adulthood, make-believe. Since it was an impossibility to be adults, we had to pretend that we were grown, and it was fun. However, once we reached maturity, we no longer had to pretend. We were what we had pretended to be as children. When we became of age, it was impossible to pretend to be grown; for we had reached our destination. Pretending would have served no purpose. It wouldn’t be fun anymore if we went through the motions, and we would certainly feel ridiculous. Maybe that is why you are so miserable when you try to find fellowship in various churches and go through the rituals with the congregation.

Notwithstanding, the children of the church in many ways play church. Rather than being the Church, rather than the feast days having become a reality in their lives — they pretend. Their rituals tell us that this is so, and the more rituals they have the more it tells how far they are from God in truth and reality. If what they were practicing was a reality in their lives, they wouldn’t be practicing it. Why do you suppose churches eat so many wafers and drink so much grape juice? Truly, it is a hard saying to eat Jesus’ flesh and drink His blood, as was before, so they pretend. Why do you think they call Saturday or Sunday the Sabbath Day of Rest? Because they have not entered His rest. And why do those embracing Kingdom truths celebrate Tabernacles every year? Could it be that they have not entered that feast, and like children, they are pretending? It could be with some; but it is not a litmus test that makes it so with everyone.

I might add — just because people do not outwardly practice feasts or take communion does not mean they have entered the reality of them. For instance, I may refuse to eat a bland wafer; but my abstinence does not automatically make me a partaker of His living word. It could be that I mentally understand the difference between the two and choose not to eat; yet, I can still be void of hearing the Word of the Lord in my spirit. I may refuse to attend meetings called The Feast of Tabernacles, saying I’ve already entered in and I will not pretend, and I can be farther away from the reality than anyone there.

When you see a flower that looks like a rose and smells like a rose you can pretty well conclude that it is a rose. Or with a skunk, it can be pitch dark, and when one is close at hand, you don’t have to speculate about it. You know it. However, with spiritual matters, things may not be as clearly defined as roses and skunks. What you see may not be what is real. With spiritual discernment, however, a skunk can take a bath in rose-water and you will still know what it is.

There are meetings held across the land called The Feast of Tabernacles; but this does not mean that everyone there has not entered in spiritually. We should not be hasty in our judgments. It is essential for us to be keenly aware and sensitive to the Spirit, as was our Lord before us. It was written of Him that "...He shall not judge after the sight of His eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of His ears" (Isaiah 11:3).

Please, let us not rely on religious practices as being our life, such as natural communion and sundry feasts. Don’t we remember, the Kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness and peace in the Holy Spirit? (Romans 14:17). It is not whether we eat meat or drink wine, wear the proper apparel, or don’t wear jewelry. Religious miters, phylacteries, robes, collars, or five-hundred dollar suits do not make the man. None of those things, whether of clergy or laity, can impress God and win His favor.

Actors are admired, even worshiped by man. Hypocrites were really the only people Jesus upbraided and spared no mercy when addressing them, yet they are revered more today than just about anybody. Hollywood "stars" run a close second; yet they may garner more honor and worship to be number one. If I err not in my memory, the Queen of England gave some of those actors the status of knights and princes. Quite an honor for pastors and preachers whose lives and beliefs are built on illusions.

Hypocrites, hupokrites,...an actor under an assumed character (stage-player). (Strong’s Exhaustive Conc.) In the church most do not realize how many actors there are among them; but in the world it is one of the most envied professions. Anyone who stands on an elevated stage before a crowd of people is looked upon as someone special. People will clamor to see them in person, to touch them, to get their autographs. Some will even pay millions to own pieces of their junk; such as, athletes' sweaty towels, or artless water color pictures and oil paintings for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

It is no secret that there is a large number of these recognized religious and political officials are actors! Hypocrites if your please. They are persuaded by their influence as well as the false doctrines taught to them; but that doesn’t matter very much to the majority. The fact is, the better they are at acting, the more they are paid and revered, so much so, their profession gives the best ones every award imaginable.

George C. Scott saw the vanity of this charade when he was nominated for an Oscar due to his role in the movie, Patton. You see, he refused both to attend the ceremony and refused the Oscar. But that is not the norm. The more convincing people are, the greater they become in the world, and it is better if they have a song. It is the same in the church. It is sad, but in the church and world alike, there is the lack of discernment on the laity’s part.

Religious and Governmental actors are generally not viewed as actors, even when they are. They are also revered and honored; but most people do not realize they are acting. They can’t imagine their church leaders along with "honorable" elected or appointed officials being anything less than the right hand of Jesus or the people of our nation. To even suggest that they were hypocrites would be nigh to blasphemy and certainly unbelievable — for, you see, actors are very believable. Some become so accomplished at their hypocrisy that they also believe they are the godly men and women they are pretending to be. I suppose everyone is a little hypocritical to some degree. For example, by acting certain ways to avoid hurting people’s feelings, is simply being kind or hoping to avoid embarrassments or confrontations. This is acceptable. But when the act becomes one’s profession and religious walk, there is a problem, and such actors do not deserve honor.

Rather than putting on a show and acting the part, let us be absorbed by Christ’s life and filled with all the living ordinances of God. We will then be eating as the Nobles and become strengthened in due season. We will not be drunken. Neither will we hear the bitter warning:

"Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a child, and thy princes eat in the morning!" Sounds very familiar, doesn't it, as we see it unfolding before our eyes today?

I believe it was the Soviet Union's President, Nikita Khrushchev, who said that we would destroy ourselves, not from without but from WITHIN and without a firing a single short! Please know, that more than a few members in our government, as well as a large number of citizens, who warmly embrace and promote Socialism, even Marxism, and Fascism.

In closing, let us note what Dr. Jordan Peterson said abut the complexities of evil. It has so many prototypes that they won't be listed today; but be sure not to forget how it often masquerades as benevolence or compassion, manipulating trust and morality.

Go head and do it! Do it today! Do it right now! Get it don! Awake from deep sleep! Awake! Especially if you are being that which is called "WOKE"!

Please, Brethren of the High Calling, do not be caught into such nonsense! WAKE UP and LIVE LIFE! LIVE HIS LIFE in order to have LIFE AND BE ABLE TO FREELY GIVE IT to a hurting, dying, dead world!!!
