Practical application of Pentecostal theology in politics, economy and social issues
“Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying, let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the […]

From the time we are born until the time we die, we are engaged in spiritual warfare with our enemy, the devil. Taunting, teasing, accusing as well as prompting us to make bad choices. Satan is also referred to as the “accuser of men.” He taunts us and tempts us, then has the audacity of […]

After the fiasco of having spilled cola on my laptop, I learned that my complete manuscript was still intact, and with a sigh of relief, I was determined to wrap things up. But instead, I was laid up with the common flu for a spell. I know the flu and its symptoms: cough, especially at […]

I used to read comic books as a kid and learned to love reading as a child. Today, I read voraciously to know what’s going on in the secular world and read the Bible daily to know about the spiritual world as well. In the early Superman comic books, there was a period when Superman […]

God has been working overtime in my life, and I can only assume that He is tying up the loose ends of my evangelistic ministry. Another motorcycle-riding dude has come into my sphere of influence. While getting gasoline at my local 7/11, I couldn’t help but notice that the motorcycle parked in front of the […]

EMPs are a serious threat to mankind, especially to Americans, who have a lot to lose if we ever experience one. An EMP attack would shut down our electrical grid for a long time. Over the years, I have occasionally mentioned EMPs in my writing and recently asked a friend about EMPs since his work […]

We are hearing more and more about people that have been “swatted.” That is the term used for making a false report to the police department, saying that someone with whom you disagree is committing a crime with a deadly weapon, thereby bringing the local Swat team to the residence named in the reported red […]

I was going over the manuscript of my book for the third (the third draft, as writers say) and final time and was drinking a glass of Pepsi Cola (which was sitting a little too close to my laptop.) I don’t have to tell you what happened – but I will. Just as I finished […]
The post This Story Is A Real Doozy :: By Jim Towers appeared first on Rapture Ready.
People everywhere are searching for cover from all they see happening in our world. Things such as war, famine, natural disasters, economic woes, and manmade viruses. Bunkers and bomb shelters are being built by those who can afford to have them built. Preppers are stocking up on food; this is the commonsense thing to do […]

Movies were used to great effect during the second world war by both the Americans and the Germans for propaganda purposes. Many “movie stars” participated in the war effort. Today, while culture wars are going on, we are exposed to men kissing men (on the lips!) and women kissing women is the norm – in […]

Who would believe that hard-core agnostics and atheists are repenting and receiving Christ? Yes, arrogant and self-serving actors and celebrities are receiving Christ under the end-times prophecy, “In the last days I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh…” Even Shia LaBeouf just became a ‘Christian’! The once obstinate actor was an agnostic until […]
