Wake UP Call!



I’m sure you’ve all heard by now about the earth quake yesterday that “struck near Mineral, Va., more than three miles below sea level, the U.S. Geological Survey said. Mineral is town 83 miles from D.C. and has been known for its seismic activity, but seldom produces a substantial earthquake.” {Source: Fox News}

A few moments after it occurred, I received a text from my SIL. She asked me what I thought about it”.  Side Note: {Those of you who know me or have been following this blog, I used to live in DC while working in the White House and am very familiar with the area.}

I didn’t really know how to answer her, but I finally said “I think it’s a Wakeup Call to the Government and the People”. Washington is essentially the center of the world, and they need a wakeup call because currently things are spinning out of control.  Which leads me to share this.

³ As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John and Andrew asked him privately, ⁴ “Tell us, when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are all about to be fulfilled?”

 ⁵ Jesus said to them: “Watch out that no one deceives you. ⁶ Many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am he,’ and will deceive many. ⁷ When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. ⁸ Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, and famines. These are the beginning of birth pains. {Source: Bible Gateway}

Jesus tells us in Mark 13 these are the beginnings of the birth pains before Christ Return. In other words these things must occur for Christ to return to fulfill his prophesy.
So today I leave you with a thought….

If these are the signs, and Christ came tomorrow, are you ready? Would you go to Heaven? Do you even know?

5 Things you should do if you’re not 100% SURE….

1.       Recognize {Confess} you’re a sinner.

2.       Realize no human works can provide salvation.

3.       Relay completely and solely on your faith alone for salvation

4.       Follow in believer’s baptism.

5.       Email me at politicsandpolkadots {at} gmail {dot} com

He is coming! Are you ready?
