____The Chain Reaction of Christianity_ ____

One of the really awesome things about an out-of-control chain reaction is
that, no matter what one tries to do to stop it, one can’t. Like the
expansion of the universe, it has a will of its own, governed only by the
natural laws that drive it.
It is the same with God’s will concerning the end of the world as we know
it. Hard as Satan and his goons try, they cannot stop it from happening,
nor can they stop the exponential growth of Christianity- the evangelical
juggernaut that is now in full swing and reaching out and into every nook and
cranny of planet earth.
Every day, tens of thousands of people are coming to Christ and being
baptized into His body. Every day, more and more channels of faith are being
made available to the seekers of truth, the souls who when they woke up one
morning thought they were who they used to be -the unrealized sons and
daughters of God- but who, before they went to bed that night, had their eyes
and hearts opened to the truth of their citizenship in our Father’s heaven.
“Go out to the whole world,” commanded Jesus, “make disciples of all
nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the
Holy Spirit.” By saying this, God triggered another sort of chain reaction,
one destined to end at the Resurrection/ Rapture, thereby accomplishing the
great commission of evangelical determination with which every Christian
must harmonize in order that the Law of Christ be fulfilled and made known to
all mankind.
Why we have been chosen to co-accomplish this mission is a mystery to our
limited understanding of God’s plan and purpose. Perhaps it is better that
we not know until the appointed time the reason why our Father set us apart
to witness unto the end of the world and the Second Coming establishment
of His Kingdom on earth.
Matthew + 24:14 and 34
“The Good News of the kingdom will be proclaimed to the whole world as a
witness to all the nations. And then the end will come… (34) I tell you
solemnly, before this generation has passed away all these things will have
taken place.” (Jesus Christ)
The things Jesus speaks of in this chapter are happening right here and
now. They are in mainstream and Christian news programs every day, and will
continue to be until they reach critical mass, at which time, just as it was
in the time of Noah, the last chosen soul is saved unto the Rapture of God’
s Church into heaven. Then will come the time for God’s wrath to be poured
out onto this unbelieving world, the time of Jacob’s (Israel’s) trouble
spoken of in Jeremiah + 30:7.
Luke + 12:32
“There is no need to be afraid, little flock, for it has pleased your
Father to give you the kingdom.” (Jesus Christ)

1 Thessalonians + 5:9
“…For God has not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our
Lord Jesus Christ…”
While the world continues to fall apart at the seams and crumble before
our very eyes, the chain reaction of Christianity continues to exponentially
explode into the hearts and minds of this generation unto the final
revelation of who God is and what He is about to do. While the White House co
ntinues to acquiesce to Satan’s agenda regarding Israel, and nations prepare for
war, we bathe in the peace that surpasses all understanding- the peace of
God’s safety, God’s kingdom.
Revelation + 3:10
“Because you have kept my commandment to endure trials, I will keep you
safe in the time of trial which is going to come for the whole world, to test
the people of the world. Soon I shall be with you: hold firm to what you
already have, and let nobody take your prize away from you.” (Jesus Christ)

The Great Divide
Lines are being drawn between faith and fear, good and evil, Enlightenment
and ignorance, the lines that separate everything this world represents
from the love of God. His last particle of patience is about to vanish from
the playing fields of history unto the annihilation of hate and prejudice
and the permanent and eternal establishment of His kingdom on earth.
The God Particle
Thermonuclear chain reactions are set off by the splitting of an atom by a
neutron crashing into its nucleus. The chain reaction of Christianity
began at the crucifixion, death and resurrection of God’s only begotten Son,
and has continued, unabated, for almost two-thousand years. The analogical
particle that triggered that explosion of faith was the Good News witness of
our Lord Jesus Christ.
That big bang of faith is the single most important happening to impact
our dimension since creation itself. And though, to the untrained eye, it may
not seem so, given the lack of attention paid to its life and death
significance by this unbelieving world, our faith is, nonetheless, as crucial to
sustaining human and planetary life as water itself.
Every other spiritual discipline on earth has been seriously affected by
Christianity, as evidenced by the number of people who have been coming to
Christ in deference to what their old religions taught and preached to them.
Why? Because God said it would be so through His prophets, and His
prophecy is always perfectly fulfilled. Case in point: Joel + 3:1 thru 5.
No other religion on the planet can say the same and, thanks to modern
communications and the information highway, more and more people are
discovering that indisputable fact of life than ever before. As a consequence, they
are realizing that Christianity is the only true faith there is, that our
God is, indeed, God, and that Jesus Christ is, indeed, the Lamb of God who
takes away the sins of the world, the only hope anyone has of attaining
eternal life.
They also know that, as with thermonuclear events, this evangelical
explosion of Good News will soon end, and that those who are left behind will
experience the deadly fallout their lack of attention and faith precipitated.
The fear of God is at work in all their hearts by way of the possible
consequences they would have to face if they decide to reject Christ as Lord and
Savior. As with the days of Noah, who listened to and did what God told
him to do, this holy fear will either be ignored or heeded unto the winning
of their souls by the love and mercy of God.

Hebrews + 11:7
“It was through his faith that Noah, when he had been warned by God of
something that had never been seen before, felt a holy fear and built an ark
to save his family. By his faith the world was convicted, and he was able to
claim the righteousness which is the reward of faith.”

The Damascus effect
The oldest, continuously populated city on earth is Damascus, Syria.
According to the prophetic word of God, very soon now, it will be instantly and
totally destroyed, so much so that it will be uninhabitable, a heap of
ruins. How? Most theologians agree the means by which it will be reduced to
rubble is the detonation of a thermonuclear, as in chain reaction, device,
since it is the only weapon currently possessed by man that could do to
Damascus what the scripture details in the foretelling of its destruction.

Isaiah + 17:1
“Damascus is going to cease to be a city, she will become a heap of ruins.
Her towns abandoned forever, will be pastures for flocks.”

Jeremiah + 49:24
“Damascus is unmanned, she prepares for flight, she is seized with
trembling. What now! That famous town deserted, the city of gaiety. And so in her
squares her young men will fall, and all her fighting men will perish, that
day. It is Yahweh Sabaoth who speaks. I will light a fire inside the
walls of Damascus; it shall devour the palaces of Ben-Hadad.”
Amos + 1:3
“For the three crimes, the four crimes of Damascus I have made my decree
and will not relent: because they have thrashed Gilead with iron thrashing
sledges, I am going to hurl fire on the House of Hazael to burn up Ben-Hadad’
s palaces; I am going to break the gate bars of Damascus.”

1 Corinthians + 4:20
“…the kingdom of God is not just words, it is power. It is for you
decide: do I come with a stick in my hand or in a spirit of love and good will.”
Of all the sticks God has in His earthbound arsenal, the one He has chosen
to be the instrument of His power in the Middle East is Israel. Though
they have never admitted to it, the apple of God’s eye has the atomic bomb and
the will to use it should their antagonistic neighbors decide to actually
do something similar to what Hitler did to the Jews when he decided to
initiate the Holocaust.
If Israel’s Arab neighbors choose to follow suit, as their rhetoric and
saber-flashing clearly indicate, God’s chosen people will have no choice but
to use whatever means at their disposal to stop its enemies from driving
them into the Mediterranean Sea. The push of a button in one of Israel’s
nuclear armed submarines could destroy Damascus within a matter of minutes,
and their enemies know it, especially Iran, the public relations engine that
is currently and financially driving this insane, holocaustic agenda.
There are more Islamic terrorist organization headquartered in Damascus
than any other city on earth, a fact not to be taken lightly where its
immanent destruction is concerned. The government of Syria gives them free reign,
supports, houses and acts as its diplomatic arm when dealing with other
Arab nations who keep them well armed, fed and uniformed right under the
noses of those involved with the peacemaking process going on and off between
Israel and the PLO.
If Not Israel, Then Who?
Many would argue that the destruction scripture speaks of with regard to
Damascus will come from God Himself in the form of fire from heaven. Will
the two witnesses the Book of Revelation speaks of in Chapter 11 not have
that option when dealing with the enemies of God? Perhaps they will take on
the responsibility of destroying Damascus. Who knows.
One thing is certain though, it will happen, and when it does, the world
will wonder greatly, given the prophetic implications, about this burning
question: ‘could God have been responsible?’
The Islamic Chain Reaction
I was watching ‘Behind the Scenes’ on TBN the other night and was greatly
moved by a healing that took place in Egypt at a Christian Church. The
video showed a young boy, who had been blind since birth, regain his sight by
the power of the Holy Spirit. What made the miracle especially glorious was
that the boy had been brought to that Church by his Muslim mother, who had
depleted all her options within the bounds of her Islamic community.
The kicker was that as video was being shot of the miracle, the viewer
could see dozens of other Muslim women in the background, seated and
witnessing the event and obviously under the influence of the Holy Spirit. An
interpreter, seated with Paul Crouch Sr. and Jr. at a TBN desk as they watched,
translated the words of the minister through whom God worked the miracle
and the mother of the boy. As he did, another miracle of sorts was conveyed
to the viewing audience.
The mother had gone from mosque to mosque on her quest to obtain a healing
from God for her son, only to be told by each of its imams (pastors) that
miracle working was not an Islamic practice. In point of fact, there is no
record anywhere of a Muslim ever exercising the gift of healing.
One of the imams the mother had visited, after hearing of the boy’s
healing, and because he himself was suffering a serious physical problem, began
to question his faith and started watching TBN to gain a better perspective
on what had happened to the boy. While viewing a Christian program, he
placed his hands on his TV set and asked God to heal him of throat cancer,
which He did, almost immediately. Word of the miracle spread quickly, as in
chain reactions, throughout his community unto the entire TBN network and its
viewers, of which there are hundreds of thousands in the Middle East, and
growing by thousands per day, thanks to satellite dishes and such supplied
by TBN and their contributors.
Get The Picture?
Of all the religions on the planet, the followers of Islam are defecting
to Christianity more than any other. Of all the Muslims who witnessed the
healing on ‘live’ TV while sitting in back of the boy who was healed of
blindness, the overwhelming majority were women. When the boy’s mother was
asked why she had come to a Christian assembly for help, she replied, ‘We had
nowhere else to go.’
They had completely exhausted all the options offered to them by both
their religion and the medical profession. There is no doubt, given the way
Muslim females are treated and looked upon by the followers of Allah, that
the women seated behind them who watched the miracle also had no place to go
for spiritual and humanitarian inspiration and help.
Is it not written in Psalm + 34:18 that “The Lord is near the broken
hearted, he helps those whose spirits are crushed?” It is also obvious that the
fire of God’s Spirit is igniting disgruntled and disenchanted Muslims, not
only in the Middle East, but all over the planet, thanks to the Holy Spirit
through the efforts of Christian media.
Ephesians + 6:12
“For it is not against human (flesh and blood) enemies that we have to
struggle, but against the Sovereignties and the Powers who originate in the
darkness of this world, the spiritual army of evil in the heaven.”
The spiritual army of which this scripture speaks is what caused the boy
to be born blind and the Muslim women who attended the miracle to suffer the
inhumanity of their Islamic oppressors. Is the great commission of Christ
Jesus not being abundantly accomplished today through the chain reaction of
Christianity His death and resurrection inspired and brought to bear
against the powers of darkness?
Every day, the Word and power of God are destroying the enemies of truth.
Every day, we come closer and closer to the end of the war between God and
Satan unto the end of a world the Evil One currently rules. And nothing
anyone can do, no politician, no military aggressor, maniacal dictator, puppet
president, religion, spiritual discipline, or any power on earth can stop
that from happening, thanks to our Lord Jesus Christ and the chain
reaction of Christianity He commissioned, initiated and empowered through God’s
Holy Spirit.
Amen
In the name of Jesus Christ
