The Latest on my Health Situation

In August of this year I was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer.
After the latest series of tests, CT scans, Doctor consultations, etc., I was informed by the surgeon on Wednesday, November 28, that the tumor is inoperable--that due to the size thereof and the fact that it has attached itself to too much surrounding tissue, he would not be able to successfully remove it with surgery.
The bottom line, medically speaking is that this is a "terminal" situation. The highest hope modern medicine has to offer is a possible delay of the process through chemotherapy.

The good news however, is found throughout the Scriptures, such as...

"Bless the Lord, O my soul and forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases..."
--Psalm 103: 2-3

I have absolutely no intention of forgetting His benefits. If I can believe, as many Christians do, that He can, and has, 'forgiven ALL my iniquities', I can also believe He can, and has, healed ALL my diseases.

My plan is to live and not die, and declare the goodness of the Lord, to the glory of God, for many years to come. I know my
God is still in the miracle business. Thank you for your agreement and your prayers of faith.

In Christ,

Whatever happened to knowledge of the 'JUDGEMENT' to come?... More response to John Hagee's 'end-time' doctrine

From whence comes the idea that Jesus will assume the role of a Messiah who 'delivers' Israel 'from their enemies' when He comes the second time?
I realize this is John Hagee's teaching (as well as 'dispensationalists' in general) but it certainly did not come from Scripture. To borrow one of Dr. Hagee's favorite phrases--"He is EXACTLY WRONG".
Israel's 'DELIVERER' came 2000 years ago. When He comes the second time, He will come as a Judge, not a deliverer. And with the flaming sword He will smite ALL nations remaining on the earth, giving their flesh to the fowls of the air. "ALL people" (Rev. 19:18) who were 'left behind' and had no part in the 'marriage supper of the Lamb'--those still living on earth instead of coming WITH Him on white horses (Rev. 19:14)--Whether they are called Gentile or Jew--will be slain. As a good friend of mine, Bill Grein, says... "He's coming again--soon--but this time it's 'No more Mr. Nice Guy'!"

Dr. Hagee (along with other dispensationalists) also have a completely unscriptural idea of what it means to be 'ruled by a rod of iron'. They think it has something to do with coming under a strict form of government, the Lord being the ruler. The Bible, on the other hand, clearly defines it differently... "You shall break [destroy] them with a rod of iron; You shall dash them to pieces like a potter's vessel." (Psalm 2:9).

Jesus absolutely and completely fulfilled His Messianic promise to Israel (as well as to the Gentiles) when He went to Calvary. Those living on this earth who have not believed and received Him as Lord by the time He comes again will be the recipients of His wrath. He is coming not to save but to 'tread the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God' (Rev.19:15).
The promise Hagee offers to unbelieving Jews that they will repent when they see Him and that He will deliver them is an absolute lie. I would think someone who loves the Jews, or any other lost people, would want to tell them the Truth--straight from the Bible, instead of some false promise--giving false hope--and encouraging them to continue on the broad path that leads to destruction.
