Gospel
The eleven disciples went to Galilee,
to the mountain to which Jesus had ordered them.
When they saw him, they worshiped, but they doubted.
Then Jesus approached and said to them,
“All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father,
and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,
teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.
And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age.”

We are at the end of an age, are we not, judgement coming?
Romans 11:25
“I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you will not be conceited: A hardening in part has come to Israel, until the full number of the Gentiles has come in.”
Luke 21:24
“And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and will be led captive into all the nations; and Jerusalem will be trodden down by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.”
I think we are at the end of an age called the Modern Era.
Amen.
Amen.
Amen.

“This is the dawning on the age of Aquarius, the age of Aquarius, Aquarius….”
Thank You Lord!
Amen!
Huh??? This is the Church Age for the body of believers with Christ being the Head of the Church with the Great Commission as posted in Mt 28.
The word “Aquarius” never appears in the Bible. False Biblical doctrine.
Here’s Wikipedia’s (crummy source, but it fits) definition:
Age of Aquarius
Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Age_of_Aquarius
The expression Age of Aquarius in popular culture usually refers to the heyday of the hippie and New Age movements in the 1960s and 1970s. The 1967 musical Hair ..
Dangerous stuff:

“The Age of Aquarius
“The term “New Age” is based on astrology. Those who believe in astrology believe there are cosmic cycles called “Astrological Ages,” in which Earth passes through a cycle or time period when it is under the influence of a certain sign of the zodiac. These “Ages” last approximately 2,000 years, with a “cusp” or transitory period between each.
“Those who embrace astrology say that for the last 2,000 years we have been in the sign of “Pisces,” the fish. Now they say we are moving into the sign of “Aquarius” or the “Age of Aquarius,” hence the “New Age.”
“The Aquarian Age is supposed to signify that the human race is now entering a “Golden Age.” Many occultists have long heralded the Aquarian Age as an event that would be significant to humanity. That is why one New Age writer stated that “a basic knowledge of Astrological Ages is of enormous importance in occult work.”1
“They believe that during these transitions certain cosmic influences begin to flow into the mass consciousness of mankind and cause changes to occur in accordance with the spiritual keynote or theme of that particular Age. This phenomenon is known as “planetary transformation”–an event they believe will bring “universal oneness” to all mankind. The view is that as more and more members of the human race “attune” themselves to “Aquarian energies,” the dynamics of the “old age” will begin to fade out.
“Just what “energies” are we supposed to be attuning ourselves to? New Age thought teaches that everything that exists, seen or unseen, is made up of energy—tiny particles of vibrating energy, atoms, molecules, protons, etc. All is energy. That energy, they believe, is God, and therefore, all is God. They believe that since we are all part of this “God-energy,” then we, too, are God. God is not seen as a Being that dwells in heaven, but as the universe itself. According to one writer, “Simply put, God functions in you, through you, and as you.”2
“The Age of Aquarius is when we are all supposed to come to the understanding that man is God. As one New Age writer put it, “A major theme of Aquarius is that God is within. The goal in the Age of Aquarius will be how to bring this idea into meaningful reality.”3”
This post is based on Matthew 28 of the Bible, which isn’t astrology, nor is any other aspect of the Bible; therefore, to post it on this thread results in my response – which I repeat: FALSE BIBLICAL DOCTRINE.
If YOU want to have a secular worldview – your choice, but this secular viewpoint has nothing to do with the Bible nor Biblical doctrine.
Show some RESPECT for Menagerie and her post by not posting your secular antics on the wrong page. Wrong thread.
Maybe I’m wrong, but my take was that JDV was agreeing with you and putting his reasons.
Agree
… the Kingdom of God is within you.” Luke 17:21
I always read the above as “within [your reach].”
The part of “God and man are one” is correct. Man is not God and that is the twist that ALWAYS comes into being. It is the fall of man.
God is always with us and therefore the only viable explanation is he is “pure energy” or vibrations, as all matter is, God controls it all.
The “new age” is always coming to being by some man’s evidence but, it always gets high jacked by some nutbag who reads into it more than what is in the manual.
We are to be one with God, salvation is that path but what is salvation just as what is God. Words to describe the indescribable.
It’s a very simplistic issue, but only by faith can you receive. Like a door that must be opened to see inside, faith is the act of opening.
Astrology is not evil, just as worship is not evil, it’s not condemned, it’s what you are trying to do with it. The moon and stars are not some glitter, nothing God does or creates is without endless meaning.
Dr. D James Kennedy has teaching on the signs. Biblical teachings.
Notwithstanding an arguable prooftext on the one verse posted, you’re asserting that “Heaven” is not a place?
John 14:2-4
“In My Father’s house there are many mansions. And if not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I am coming again and will receive you to Myself, that where I am, you may be also. And you know the way to the place I am going.”
Colossians 4:1
“Masters, give to the slaves that which is righteous and that which is equal, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.”
Again:
Acts 1:9-11
“And having said these things, they beholding, He was lifted up, and a cloud hid Him from their eyes. And as they were looking intently into heaven as He was going, then behold, two men in white apparel stood by them, who also said, “Men, Galileans, why do you stand looking into heaven? This Jesus, having been taken up from you into heaven, will thus come in that manner you beheld Him going into heaven.”
“The verse above is one of the places in the Bible where esoteric, Gnostic metaphysics sneaks in.”
Are you asserting that about a translation of the Greek, or are you contending that the verse is false?
“New Age pop-spirituality utilizes watered-down and distorted elements from the esoteric spiritual traditions, but that does not invalidate the traditions themselves.”
Esoteric spiritual traditions? I’ll stick with Scripture. If you try to slide in some of these traditions going forward, I think plenty will be able to speak up in examining them.
Yeah, weren’t you just talking about gnosticism / secret
knowledge? Per Wiki, “The Nag Hammadi library (also known as the “Chenoboskion Manuscripts” and the “Gnostic Gospels”[a]) is a collection of early Christian and Gnostic texts discovered near the Upper Egyptian town of Nag Hammadi in 1945.”
So it wasn’t till 1945 were things got revolutionizes far as “ our understanding“? Any further details, or just random comments that go nowhere?
Kind of neat how are you make these assertions and seem to back them up with air. Maybe in the next hit and run gnostic-filled snark on a thread talking about an event in Christian history, we will get more into your 1945 “Nag” revelations.
Sorry, didn’t want to divert with the Ascension of our Lord, just a play on His words “…until the end of the age.”
“The Age of Pisces is currently in the transition between ages to the Age of Aquarius is waiting in the wings. ”
Forget the Astrology/Saturnist/hippie part of this, it’s from the musical Hair, made famous by the 5th Dimension, look at the lyric in the Bridge and it’s beautiful. Though we now know, they didn’t mean it, the 60’s (counter culture) set up where we are at and the demons used these musical hypocrites to destroy the USA and the West.
(Bridge)
Harmony and understanding
Sympathy and trust abounding
No more falsehoods or derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation
And the minds true liberation
Aquarius
This would be beautiful if they meant it.
The words comport with the teachings of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and this is indeed His time and I’m ready.
I know your writings well enough to know that you meant no harm StanH…yet I would encourage all believers here and everywhere to never do or say anything to distract from the Word, the Almighty God, the Wonderful Counselor, the Prince of Peace, the King of Glory, the Everlasting Father
Amen.
Amen!
“Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation”
No, they appear to comport with the “golden age” falseness described in the above article as well as the “Mystic Crystal revelation” that also seems to have the earmarks of the New Age falsehoods.
Things that sort of sound good and maybe even have a little bit of truth or appeal to harmony yet are mixed with error and deception evidently the stock in trade of those who would seek to deceive and destroy, which makes it imperative to be careful and stick with the truth and the narrow path as shown in the Scriptures.
2 Corinthians 11:3-4
“I am afraid, lest by any means, as the serpent in his craftiness deceived Eve, your minds might be corrupted from the simplicity and the purity in Christ. For if indeed the one coming proclaims another Jesus whom we did not proclaim, or you receive a different spirit whom you did not receive, or a different gospel which you did not accept, you are bearing with it well.”
2 Corinthians 13-15
“For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their deeds.”
2 Timothy 3:13
“But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.”
Matthew 25:21-25
“For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.
““Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it. For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. See, I have told you beforehand.”
boom!
There it is!
Stan – Please read my comment above. Additionally, read below the revelation of Jesus Christ as given to John in the last verses of His Word – the Bible, Rev 22: 19-21 . Verses 20-21 is the Closing Benediction.
Verses 18-19 are our Words of Warning.
“18 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, 19 and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.
20 He who testifies to these things says, “Surely I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!
21 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all. Amen.
This grave warning is repeated in Deut. 4:2; 12:32, Pov. 30:6.
Deut 4: 2 You shall not add to the word that I command you, nor take from it, that you may keep the commandments of the Lord your God that I command you.
Deut 12: 32 [a] “Everything that I command you, you shall be careful to do. You shall not add to it or take from it.
Prov 30:6 Do not add to his words, lest he rebuke you and you be found a liar.
The first time I read Revelation, I was struck with the graveness of that command. It’s the last words from our Lord to us after 66 books in the Bible. The last one.
When you add on that secular crap as a tag on to God’s Word or reference to it or on a biblical , scriptural post, you bring the fulfillment of God’s warning in v. 18-19 in some fashion upon yourself. Your life will go better if you read, study, and follow God’s Word. Of all the things God could have said to John at the end of his vision, the Lord said this warning. He has left us with this statement because this is very, very important for us to understand. If you are a Christian, God commands us to study and read His word, but if you don’t know His Word, at least heed His last warning.
Whatever, Dude
Are JDV and StanH the same person?

GOD so loved the world, He gave His only begotten Son .
He Is the Light of the world.
Amen…
Hallelujah!! Hallelujah … Hallelujah … Hallelu uuu uu jah
Every night, I pick up my bedside crucifix and talk to Him. I tell Him how discouraged He must be, looking down from high up and witnessing all the depravity spreading everywhere. I then thank Him for keeping me safe, one gentle kiss, and I fall asleep in peace.
Lord, bless this house.
In this time of growing unrest and evil, I have never felt closer to God than I do now.
Amen!! 🙌🏼
Our Lord and Savior, will always show us the way.
Thank you for this post.

God Bless You
“And lo, I AM with you always, until the end of the age”.
Those words comfort me in my distress every morning, and they assure me that He really is by my side and also leading as we trek down the path of this broken world we live in 🙏🙏
Look at Mathew 1:17, count the 14 generation from Abraham to David, the 14 from David to the Babylonia exile and then count the last group and notice there are only 13 names. That is because Jesus and His bride the church are one. Paul explains, Jesus is the head the members of the church are the rest of the body. Everyone has a place. The head, Jesus ascend 10 days before Pentecost. The rest of the body will ascend at the rapture of His bride. We are close, at least I think so.
I so agree with you, MB!! Maranatha!!
“All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me.”
Hallelujah … and blessed be to God🇺🇸
At one time this was one of the holiest days, but we seem to have gotten away from that though we still look forward to Whitsunday.
Hallelujah, Amen❤❤❤
One of my favorite movie renditions of this event.
What is also interesting is Revelations describes a very similar event upon his return.
There is good reason to believe that the Crucifixion occurred on Friday, April 3rd, 33 AD, with the Resurrection on Sunday, April 5th 33 AD. Accession was 40 days after the Resurrection so this event was May 15th 33AD.
https://cbs.mbts.edu/2020/04/08/april-3-ad-33-why-we-believe-we-can-know-the-exact-date-jesus-died/
The time of the Gentiles that Jesus spoke of was to last 2 days. We know that a day for God is thousand years for us.
Thus if Jesus were to return at the exact point in our time 2,000 years from this event it would place his return on May 15th, 2033.
That date lines up with Rick larson’s theory as well, which he demonstrates in the documentary, “The Star of Bethlehem” with incredible software that clocks the sky. Every Christian should see his documentary DVD just once in their lifetime. It was produced by the same guy who did Gibson’s, “The Passion of the Christ”. It’s a pilgrimage for the soul.

Thanks for that link. I think Jonathan Cahn does an excellent analysis of Jesus’s potential date of birth as well.
https://youtu.be/ptlsXtTf6n0
I wish we had response notifications on this board.
His death, burial, and resurrection fulfilled the first three feasts, Passover, Unleavened Bread, and First Fruits. His second coming will fulfill the last three feasts, Feast of Trumpets, Feast of Atonement, and Feast of Tabernacles, when we will tabernacle with Him here on the earth for a thousand years. Then He will loose Satan for a short while, judge those who are not His, cast them into the lake of fire and create a new Heaven and a new earth where we will live with Him forever!
Feast of Pentecost is the fourth (middle) feast and it was fulfilled by the Holy Spirit coming. I am not setting specific dates, but I have always wondered if one year on the Feast of Pentecost God might tell the Son, something like, “Go fetch Your Bride, my Son!” And just like the Holy Spirit came during the Feast of Pentecost, the bodies of the Church in which the Holy Spirit resides will be taken from the earth in an instant during a future Feast of Pentecost!
I don’t know, just something that I have pondered on!
Jonathan Cahn talks a lot about how all these ancient Jewish feasts are yet to be fulfilled but will be in the second coming.
It all ties together so well.
Thank you for the reminder, Menagerie! Ten more days to Pentecost!
Never a better time than now to share the Gospel!!
I pray Ephesians 6:19-20 for myself as well as my brothers and sisters in the Treehouse. I pray that utterance may be given to us that we may open our mouths boldly to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to all of those whom He puts in our paths! 🙏🏼
Ascension of the Lord

Sound of Freedom
A note for the middle third of the people in this country,
the fence sitters,
the I’ll wait and see,
those focusing upon making financial ends meet,
those people just living life out while on the beech,
those leaving other folks alone,
those people staying out of other peoples business,
etc.
Life is busy, you know….
But, what about the tyranny and oppressions going on for others?
Would you like to hear the
‘Sound of Freedom’ for others, than ourselves?
There is a movie that is already made, that has spending years to try to be seen, but he nefarious third, the censors have been blocking it.
The censoring could end, an ascension of truth sharing could begin – with your help.

Jesus proves there is a Heaven by going there before the disciples’ eyes.
He went to Heaven to prepare a place for us.
Elijah Taken Up to Heaven
2 Kings 2:1-11
Read the entire passage. It was read as part of our church’s Ascension worship service this evening.
Thank you Jesus for standing in front of me at the Judgment. Thank you for bringing my family through 9 terrible months. Thank you for testing us with fire, and refining us.
I’m not convinced that Jesus descended into Hell after His crucifixion as some believe, but I am convinced that he ascended into Heaven where He remains to this day.
Hell, at the time was “The Breast of Abraham”. Not the traditional hell everyone thinks about. Everyone went there when they died, and it was separated by a chasm of those who were just and those who were unjust. I think we know which side of the chasm that Jesus landed on.
Amen!
