"No Strings Attached"

In the following Biblical commentary from the Word of God, Grant Phillips talks about the Biblical FACT that true eternal salvation in Jesus Christ is **COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY** a gift from Almighty God that is NOT given to us because of any so-called "good works" that we do; no, this salvation is ONLY given to those people who turn from their sins and put their ENTIRE faith in the finished work, (the death and resurrection), of the Lord Jesus Christ ALONE for the complete and total forgiveness of ALL of their sins!

"The Rapture, Our Blessed Hope"

In the following Bible message from the Word of God, (from the 2012 SoCal Prophecy Conference), Pastor Chuck Smith shared with us a **very encouraging** message about the "blessed hope" of every truly saved, born-again child of God, which is the Rapture of the Church.

In this message, Chuck Smith talked about the fact that this present world in which we live is growing **darker and darker** and **more and more hopeless** for the people who are unsaved, unbelievers in Jesus Christ.

However, for all of us who ARE born-again, saved believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, this present world grows  "brighter and brighter" all the time, because, every minute that passes in this present world brings us **CLOSER AND CLOSER** to our blessed hope as believers, that is, it brings us closer and closer to the coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the One Who will take **every** saved person off of this Earth and take them Home to Heaven to be with Him, (Jesus Christ), in Glory forever!!

The main Bible passage that Pastor Chuck Smith preached from for this message is from Titus 2:13, which reads as follows: "...while we wait for the blessed hope -- the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ..."

For every person who watches this message and wants to know HOW to be saved by God so that you too will be ready to go to be with the Lord forever at the Rapture, at the end of Pastor Chuck Smith's message, Pastor Jack Hibbs gives a brief talk about what a person needs to do in order to be **truly saved** and **ready to go** when the Rapture of the Church takes place.

"Mean Spiritedness"

In the following Biblical commentary, Ron Graham talks about how that another *major* sign that we are now deep into the End Times, right before the Rapture of the Church and the subsequent seven-year Tribulation period that follows, is the recent **very large and very rapid increase** of overall evil, wicked, and mean-spirited behavior among **so very many people**, just in these past few years here upon this Earth.

"Forgive Me"

In the following message from the Word of God, (the Bible), titled, "Forgive Me", Dr. David Jeremiah of Turning Point ministries talks about what true, Biblical, Christian forgiveness is all about.

The bottom line is, that, the Bible clearly teaches us that we who are born-again, saved Christians, because of the Biblical fact that Almighty God Himself has **freely and totally** forgiven us through our Lord Jesus Christ, that, we who are saved believers In Jesus Christ should also **freely and totally** forgive other people who have sinned against us and done wrong against us.

Some of the Bible passages that Dr. Jeremiah preached from for this message are from Matthew 5:23-24, 43-45; Matthew 6:12, 14-15; Matthew 18:21-35; Ephesians 4:32; and, from 1st John 1:9.

In the following commentary, which is a commentary that should give **every unsaved person who reads this** something **VERY SOBERING** to think about, Deborah Jackson talks briefly about just what that it will be like here upon this Earth for those people who are left behind just FIVE MINUTES after the Rapture of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ takes place.

For those of you who are "putting off" giving your lives to Jesus Christ and receiving Him as your very own personal Lord and Savior, please read the following brief commentary and ask yourself this question: -- "Is my present gambling with my eternal soul REALLY WORTH my missing the Rapture and thus my being left behind here upon this Earth to face the utter horrors and terrors of the Tribulation period that will begin AFTER the Rapture of the Church takes place?"

"Jude, Enoch, and the Hybrids"

In the following **very sobering** Biblical commentary, Ron Graham, (speaking mainly from what is written in the Bible book of Jude), talks about how that the offspring, (which are called "Hybrids" or "Nephilim") of sexual unions between demonic, fallen angels and human women are continuing **even today** in the wicked plan of Satan and his demonic forces of evil to try to totally contaminate the human race, much like they did before the world-wide flood of Noah.

And, just like that demonic contamination of the human race that happened many thousands of years ago that brought about the judgment of Almighty God through the world-wide flood of Noah's day, so to will this present day contamination of the human race by these evil and soul-less "Hybrid" beings be a BIG "contributing factor" that will bring about the swift and devastating judgments of Almighty God down upon this Earth AFTER the up-coming Rapture of the Church of Jesus Christ takes place.

Here, in today's edition of the Rapture Ready website's weekly on-line newsletter, "Nearing Midnight", there are two short commentary articles that are contained within this newsletter.

The first article, titled, "Europeans at the Breaking Point", talks about how that many nations in Europe are at the "breaking point" in regards to the tremendous and burdensome debt that they are under, and, how all of this is just paving the way for the Biblically prophesied AntiChrist to come onto the scene and implement his evil and hellish "Mark of the Beast" financial system AFTER the Rapture of the Church of Jesus Christ takes place.

And, the second article, titled, "Gog Spirit Surfaces", talks about Vladimir Putin's taking the office of the President of Russia for the second time overall, and, how that MANY things that Vladmir Putin says and does point towards a strong possibility that Putin just MIGHT be the evil leader named "Gog" who is talked about in the Gog-Magog war Bible prophecies of Ezekiel, Chapters 38 and 39.

"THE FEAST OF PASSOVER"

Here, in Part 2 of a series of PDF files of informational slides, titled, "THE FEAST OF PASSOVER", Daymond Duck gives us an **excellent** brief view of The Jewish Feast of Passover.

The purpose of this feast was two-fold:

1. It celebrated the past in remembering when the death angel passed over the Hebrews in Egypt in the Bible book of Exodus, Chapter 12.

2. It also looked to the future when Jesus "Christ, (the Messiah), our passover is sacrificed for us." -- (1st Corinthians, Chapter 5, Verse 7.)

Indeed, the lambs that died and provided the blood to protect the Hebrews from the death angel back in Moses' day prefigured and pointed to that day in the future when Jesus Christ, the "Lamb of God", would shed His blood and die on the cross and then, three days later, He would rise from the dead to **PAY THE SIN DEBT IN FULL** for every person who would trust in Him and in His shed blood and death ALONE for **the full and total payment for ALL of their sins** so that they would not die eternally and suffer forever in Hell and the Lake of Fire.

While there is only **ONE WAY** for a person to go to Heaven, (which is through personal saving faith in Jesus Christ and His finished work of dying on the cross and rising from the dead to pay the TOTAL sin debt of every person who will come to Him for salvation); indeed, while there is only **ONE WAY** for a person to go to Heaven, there are MANY different ways that Almighty God uses TO bring different people TO Jesus Christ for the salvation of their eternal souls.

Then, at the time when we who ARE now truly saved actually prayed and received Jesus Christ as our very own personal Lord and Savior, we then just finished the work of salvation that Almighty God had started in eternity past by our believing on and receiving God's Savior Son, Jesus Christ as our very own personal Lord and Savior.
