Pastor and Founder

Dear Friends, Greetings from west-central Florida:

There are according to Volcano Discovery 27 different erupting volcanoes AT THIS VERY MOMENT! And a great many others around the world are showing signs of waking up! We are also witnessing a lot of unusual earthquakes around the world. As we are aware our Lord Jesus Christ has WARNED us, ’ And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be … troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows’ – Mark 13:8. It also appears that seismic activity is rising as we enter into the civil beginning of the year 2023!

Two of Hawaii’s largest volcanoes, Kilauea and Mauna Loa, are erupting simultaneously! Duel eruptions haven’t been seen since 1984! Can you imagine witnessing red hot lava shooting 10 stories into the sky!? The speed with which the lava is flowing will absolutely take your breath away! – nearly 6 mph!

Also, the giant volcano Mount Semeru erupted back on December 4th, 2021, ejecting volcanic ash into the sky and raining hot mud on villages, killing at least 51 people and injuring 169 others. The volcano erupted once this past Saturday and twice this past Friday. It spewed out 700 meters to one-kilometer-high white and gray ash columns with thick intensity. As of Saturday, 17 volcanoes across the Southeast Asian country have been on level 2 alert status. The Marapi volcano in West Sumatra, located on the island of Sumatra, erupted 191 times on Saturday. With 142 volcanoes, Indonesia has the largest population globally living in close range to a volcano. Around 8.6 million people live within a radius of 10 kilometers of the volcanoes. 1

On average, there are 50-70 volcanoes that erupt every year. And some of them erupt multiple times a year. More than 75% of earth’s volcanoes lie within the so-called Ring of Fire. The other great volcanic region of the world is the Mediterranean Belt which stretches from Southern Europe to Central Asia. Within these two great regions occur more than 95% of all earthquakes.

In this era of time which our Lord Jesus Christ called, ‘the beginning of sorrows’ are these sleeping giants awakening!? It appears that after centuries dormant, a great many are thundering back to life!

According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS) website, there are currently 161 potentially active volcanoes in the U.S. And according to one source, more than 270, 000 people have been killed directly or indirectly by volcanic activity worldwide during the past 500 years. 2

Quite possibly the most famous of earth’s volcanoes in the history of humanity was the Mount Vesuvius eruption of A.D. 79! Which utterly destroyed the sexually immoral city of Pompeii – the city is still remembered (fondly I might add) by a great many, such as in the modern song “Pompeii” by British rock band Bastille. By 79, Pompeii had a population of 20,000. In a Roman world caught up with sexual immorality, Pompeii was the beacon, shining its light to lead the way. 3 It was a very wealthy city just southeast of the modern-day city of Naples.

Another great passion of the Pompeiians was the gladiator games – which in A.D. 59, there was a serious riot and bloodshed in the amphitheater between Pompeiians and Nucerians, which caused the Roman Senate to send the military to restore order and banned events for ten years. 4

The citizens of the city of Pompeii had long been used to minor earthquakes. But on 5th February 62, a massive earthquake – possibly between a 5 and 6 on the Richter Scale – caused considerable damage to the city. On that very day, there were two sacrifices in the city, as it was the anniversary of Caesar Augustus being named the “Father of the Fatherland” and also a Roman feast day in honor of the city’s guardian spirits. Chaos and confusion followed the massive earthquake! Then 17 years later Mount Vesuvius erupted, lasting two days! The first phase was of pumice rain lasting about 18 hours. And at some time in the night or early the next day, pyroclastic flows began near the volcano, consisting of high-speed, dense, and scorching ash clouds, knocking down wholly or partly all structures in their path, incinerating or suffocating the population. 5

Sadly, in this 21st-century world, the complete destruction of the city of Pompeii means little to nothing to most of our peoples! Yet, there is a striking similarity between the abominable lifestyles of the ancient Pompeiians and those of the modern-day nations of Israel today! Many just simply live out their lives unconcerned about the grave ramifications of their actions. But our CREATOR IS CONCERNED! The LORD our God has given us a living immutable LAW by which each of us can be happy, successful, and fulfilled. IF we break this Law, we doom ourselves to peril. For the LORD God says –

“’ I call heaven and earth as witnesses TODAY [the very day that you see and hear this] against you, that I have set before you LIFE AND DEATH, BLESSING AND CURSING; therefore choose life, …’” – Deuteronomy 30:19.

Of course, as our Lord Jesus says, time and chance can happen to the unrepentant – cf. Luke 13:1-5. He WARNS – ’ I tell you, … unless you REPENT you will all likewise perish.’

God’s living word is replete with instances when the LORD God intervened or allowed certain actions to halt activities that were a grievous insult to not only the LORD God but to men as well! Such as the complete destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah for their out-of-control sexual immoralities. Such as the complete annihilation of the inhabitants of the world in the days of patriarch Noah because of… as the LORD our God says, ‘the wickedness of man which was great upon the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was ONLY EVIL continually’ – cf. Genesis 6:5.

Is the annihilation of ancient Pompeii just merely the end result of chance – or is there an IMPORTANT WARNING here!? The LORD God says in the Book of Proverbs chapter 11 –

“Through the blessing of the upright a city is exalted, but by the mouth of the wicked it is destroyed” – Proverbs 11:11, NIV.

It should be food for thought. Especially when we look around this world and witness the many abominable sins rampant in our cities today! The complete hypocrisy of our peoples and the fact – cf. many of our peoples appear to be insane!

Interestingly enough – after the destruction, the site of Pompeii was subject to looting. The people who had managed to flee came back to see whether they could retrieve any of their possessions. Someone scratched the words “Sodom and Gomorrah” on the wall of a house. Surely, someone saw the analogy even then of a warning for societies that sin against – who they had titled “THE UNKNOWN GOD”!

What about our societies in this modern world!? This “present evil age”!? – Galatians 1:4. Are we witnessing an uptick in a reawakening in earthquake and volcanic activity!? For truth, we must turn to TRUTH – the LORD God’s living word!

The Bible does foretell a tumultuous period of growing natural disasters! Our world conditions in ‘this generation’ plainly indicate that we are in ‘the beginning of birth pains’NIV. Our Lord Jesus Christ’s own words show us that these earthquakes – as are happening – would be accompanied by historically unparalleled volcanic activity heralding the end of this present age – our Lord Jesus quoting the Book of Isaiah –

’ Immediately after the distress of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’ – Matthew 24:29, NIV.

The Day of the LORD is near!

“’ Wail, for the Day of the LORD is near; it will come like destruction from the Almighty. 7) Because of this, all hands will go limp, every man’s heart will melt. 8) Terror will seize them, pain and anguish will grip them; … 13) Therefore I [the LORD God] will make the heavens tremble; and the earth will shake from its place at the wrath of the LORD Almighty in the day of His burning anger’” – Isaiah 13:6-8, 13.

According to the biblical timeline, for almost 6,000 years, mankind has flat-out rejected the LORD God! Mankind has rejected the peace and security which is outlined for us in our “Instruction Manual.” And, as I just stated to my wife yesterday evening – our Savior will need to return to this earth early just to keep mankind from annihilating ourselves due to our pollution of this planet! Indeed, uncaring humans play a KEY ROLE in the biosphere and earth’s ecosystems. Instead of spending millions of dollars sending a single robotic mission to space, why are we not spending this money to… Oh, just spitballing… eliminate our ocean GARBAGE PATCHES! - the collections of plastic waste and other debris found in higher concentrations in certain parts of the ocean! However, there can be no solution to even this unless EVERY SINGLE nation, country, and province is on board! Worldwide, humanity has wiped out 60% of animal species since 1970! *
 
The LORD God tells us that all of this is the result of sin! - “For the creation [speaking about the whole of the physical universe] was subjected to frustration, NOT BY ITS OWN CHOICE, …”

“ … but by the will of the One who subjected it, …”

Notice how eloquently put Ellicott's Commentary speaks of this –
“The Apostle gives the reason for this earnest expectation in the present state of nature; pointing out what creation is. If creation were perfect and was fulfilling the noblest possible purpose, there would be no cause for looking forward hopefully to the future.” 6
“ … IN HOPE that the creation itself [meaning, ‘all physically created things’ including the universe], will be liberated from its bondage to decay [its bondage to the law of decay] and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God” – Romans 8:20-21, NIV.

Note: truly, this law of decay proves that life originated from a Divine Being with intelligence outside of this physical universe.

And unless our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ STOPS EARLY our present course, there will be nothing left on this earth to save – cf. Matthew 24:22.

Our peoples who have scoffed at our CREATOR, and yet seen the wonderful design of CREATION, will soon have their hearts fail them ’ from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth’ – Luke 21:26.

“For SINCE THE CREATION OF THE WORLD His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, SO THAT THEY ARE WITHOUT EXCUSE” – Romans 1:20.

The LORD God’s UNIVERSAL LAWS (and I understand that this statement has some ambiguity). Ambiguity because all we know is what we are aware of in our own local area of the LORD God’s universe.

And ONLY the LORD God can change these laws!

This whole earth – all that are upon this earth – are going to be affected by these growing natural disasters. The LORD God, however, is merciful! We are plainly told if you will listen –

’ Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man’ – Luke 21:36.

But a disbelieving world is going to be ensnared.

Take this IMPORTANT WARNING to heart.

The “short work upon the earth”

Minister Guy LaMar reminded us back in 2021 – in his “Think About This… ” – the very fact that TIME IS GROWING EVER SHORTER! Our Lord Jesus has said, ’ I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work’ – John 9:4. Truly, what lessons are here for us, and what encouragement from our Example!

As I have mentioned many times – it does appear as if God the Father and our Lord Jesus have been holding back the utter destruction of the United States of America, the United Kingdom and her Commonwealth Nations, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand respectively – because there are maybe ten in one-million righteous people within these nations!? It should make us wonder. Is that number depleting as time goes by!? Jesus Christ is soon coming! And like what Minister Guy asks, “will it be within this next decade!?”

But for what it is worth – our Lord Jesus Christ clearly WARNED to WATCH –

’ But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only’ – Matthew 24:36.

’ But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into’ – vs. 43.

’ Blessed is the servant whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing. … But if that evil servant says in his heart, ‘My master is delaying his coming,’ … the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not looking for him and at an hour that he is not aware of’ – vss. 46, 48, 50.

’ WATCH therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming’ – Matthew 25:13.

’ But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day [the Day of the LORD] come on you unexpectedly. For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the whole earth’ – Luke 21:34-35.

’ Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branches has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. So you also, when you see all these things, know that it [or rather He] is near – at the doors! Assuredly, I say to you, this generation [the generation which sees all these things come to pass] will by no means pass away till all these things take place’ – Matthew 24:32-34.

WATCHING we certainly witness that there is every indication that God the Father and Jesus Christ are now speeding up the things which MUST take place before Their coming! Well, friends, ‘summer is near’! – right at the door!

In the Book of Revelation a great prophecy of our God in which an angel with a loud voice cries out, ‘Do not harm the earth and the sea, or the trees UNTIL we have completed in sealing God’s servants on their foreheads.’ Friends, when will the sealing of the 144,000 be finished!?

Moreover, the LORD has also said to the prophet Isaiah, and we certainly should read this passage of the Book of Isaiah (Is. 10:22-23) in its entirety –

“Isaiah also cries out concerning ISRAEL: ‘Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, The remnant will be saved. …’”

The message given by the apostle Paul may appear to differ from what the prophet Isaiah intended, but there is a sameness of sentiment in both messages. This also is a reference to what our Lord Jesus Christ said, ’ And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened’ – here speaking of a remnant of the physical descendants of Israel will indeed be saved.

“’ For He will finish the work AND CUT IT SHORT in righteousness, Because the LORD will make a short work upon the earth’” – Romans 9:27-28.

Truly, the “cut it short” means a speedy completion of His work and word, both in cutting off the one portion and saving the other.

Here from now on, things may occur VERY SUDDENLY AND RAPIDLY, to finish the great work and word of the Eternal One! Nevertheless, please PRAY for this work of God as never before!

Helping Others


Early December 2022 we posted in our Letter to our Friends the awesome news that TI CCOG is raising funds to help the orphans at the North Alabama Christian Children’s Home along with the elderly living in the area desperately needing our help. We are excited to announce that over $800 has been raised for this great cause so far! Please, if possible and are able and willing to help, you may donate here - https://gofund.me/802715ff. Or, if gofundme is not conducive, you can contact Minister LaMar @ guy_lamar@yahoo.com for additional information.

Now, while we will not – and cannot – tell you that you cannot directly assist the poor, we encourage you not to send funds to people claiming to be members of the Church of Jesus Christ Online Ministries or our affiliated churches in “developing nations.” There are a number of reasons for this. Including prioritizing legitimate needs as well as reducing resentment and division that sending funds to one and not the other can cause.

Also, and we are asked this almost monthly, we encourage our brethren and friends in “highly developed” countries not to sponsor potential immigrants into their nations who are not relatives. So, if you receive solicitations for either, be very leery – we encourage you to not fund nor directly sponsor someone.

Again, if you wish to give a special donation to the poor, we in the Church of Jesus Christ Online Ministries or our affiliated churches are gladly accepting them, and we strive to be proper stewards with the funds to help the poor, the widows, and orphans. You can contact us at pastorleonard1@yahoo.com, or send a special donation to:

• Closing song.
• Closing prayer.

In case you do not receive a ‘Letter to our Friends’ for any week, remember that there are many sermon messages on the Church of Jesus Christ Online MinistriesBitChute channel, as well as our Soundcloud Radio channel. We also post all Letters to our Friends on our webpage.

Some World News In Relation To Biblical Prophecy

Grave economic concerns are remaining high in the news! (See: AP - World Bank: Recession a looming threat for global economy’). Surely, many in Europe are blaming the United States of America for triggering this!

What is recession!? Notice the following –
What’s a Recession?

The official definition varies. Some define a recession as two consecutive quarters in which output declines. The National Bureau of Economic Research is technically in charge of declaring recessions, which it defines as “a significant decline in economic activity that is spread across the economy and that lasts more than a few months.” …

For those concerned about layoffs, try to build up emergency savings of least three to six months of living expenses, experts say. If you do experience a job loss, remember you have options — there are still lots of openings. …

What Else Can I Do?

The most common advice from financial experts: Don’t panic. …

Noah Damsky, a financial planner at Marina Wealth Advisors, recommends some overall “belt tightening.” Cutting down on discretionary expenses and boosting savings is always a good idea, but especially so when a recession might be coming.

Many people lose income and/or jobs during a recession and there are fewer goods and services – in essence, a global recession would certainly mean that the whole world gets poorer.

God’s living word – the Holy Bible – points to greater food shortages and even greater food prices. Of INFLATION –

“When He [our Lord Jesus Christ] opened the THIRD SEAL, I heard the third living creature say, ‘Come and see.’ So I looked and behold, a BLACK HORSE, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. 6) And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, ‘A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine’” – Revelation 6:5-6.

Be sure to read “Revelation – A Book of the Past and the Future (Part Four)” for additional information regarding this.

In this present evil world, we are witnessing a lot of economic uncertainty.

There are recessions, oftentimes stagflation, disasters, global weather troubles, wars, rumors of wars, and even depressions – all that affect in one way or another income and our physical needs.

Here in Florida, we have the “right-to-work laws” in the context of labor law. The right-to-work laws do not aim to provide a general guarantee of employment to people seeking work but rather guarantee an employee's choice to not pay or be a member of a financially supporting labor union. So, we know that one can lose a job at any time. But, of course, there could be health problems or even the death of the main income provider. To Note: Japan’s job’s-for-life system is being left behind by a changing world. 7

But there are things that true Christians can and should do.

Notice –

“The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender” – Proverbs 22:7.

Instead of being in debt, God’s begotten children should strive to save money. And, they should be givers and rely fully on the LORD God’s blessings! For the LORD God says –

“’ For I AM the LORD, I do not change; … 8) ‘Will a man rob God? Yet you have robbed Me! But you say, ‘In what way have we robbed You?’ In tithes and offerings. 9) You are cursed with a curse, For you have robbed Me, Even this whole nation’” – Malachi 3:6, 8-9.

“Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others” – Philippians 2:4.

“But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. 7) So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver. 8) And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work. 9) As it is written:

‘He has dispersed abroad, He has given to the poor; His righteousness endures forever’ – 2 Corinthians 9:6-9.

Yes, we ALL NEED TO CONSIDER HELPING OTHERS!

We should first seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness. And, we should try not to be in debt, we should try and save money, and we should give to others as we purpose in our hearts, not grudgingly or out of necessity.

All of these should be a part of our preparedness.

Also in world news – which rarely is emphasized in mainstream media – is that the United States of America, China, as well as the European Union, are continuing their efforts to improve trade among Asia and South America. (See: The Asian Times – Alternative To China’s Belt & Road Initiative, European Union Eyes ‘Global Gateway’ To Counter The BRI’). On the surface this sounds like a good thing – doesn’t it? Yet, the USA and its British-descended allies are basically not a part of these programs – even though the USA says that it does want to play a role.

The European Union is wanting its Global Gateway project to increase its influence globally involving trade while blocking much of China’s influence. Europe is NOT going to sit idly on the sidelines, but it has been moving slower than China on such infrastructure projects. The Chinese government (a socialist state governed by a communist party) has their practical long-term strategy to dominate the world according to many. Rush Doshi, who is currently serving as a China director at the National Security Council, argues that the impacts of Donald Trump’s presidency and the COVID-19 pandemic emboldened Beijing to enter a new phase beginning in 2016 to expand China’s order-building efforts more aggressively. The party leadership came to believe that it needed to seize the opportunity to push U.S. decline and encourage an American retreat from the world. This strategy includes efforts to undermine U.S. financial hegemony, become the global leader in advanced manufacturing and key emerging technologies, and field a world-class military capable of operating on a global scale. 8

The Bank Rakyat Indonesia (BRI), Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa (BRICS), the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), as well as the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO), are all Gentile organizations. Our Lord Jesus Christ spoke concerning a final “occupation” of Jerusalem by the Gentiles – Luke 21:24; Revelation 11:2. And we are certainly witnessing the Gentile nations strengthening and strategizing their next move – involving trade.

Both Russia and Europe are part of the Belt and Road Initiative, and the extremely indebted United States of America is not. The Belt and Road Initiative also includes Syria – and Syria is only some 250 miles (398 km) from Tel Megiddo!

“Then the SIXTH ANGEL poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, so that the way of the kings from the east might be prepared. 13) And I saw THREE unclean spirits like frogs coming out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet – Revelation 16:12-13.

Irrespective of the innumerable conspiracy theories and false prophet predictions, God’s living word shows us that there will come a time when “the kings from the east” – a massive Islamic army – will make its way to Tel Megiddo.

Indeed, the “dragon” is Satan the devil, the “beast” being a final end-time military leader of a future United States of Europe, and the “false prophet” being a great final religious leader of that Catholic European conglomerate.

“For they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to battle of that great day of God Almighty” – Revelation 16:14. Speaking of the terrible Day of the LORD!

’ Behold, I AM coming as a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments [pure], lest he walk naked and they see his shame.’ 16) And they gathered them together to the place called in Hebrew, Armageddon” – Revelation 16:15-16.

The name Tel Megiddo, or rather Har Megiddo. “hill of Megiddo.” Megiddo is a place up north of Jerusalem – a gigantic plain. The name is used only once in God’s living word – “the place called in Hebrew, Armageddon.” For “the kings from the east” – refers to a collection of Islamic armies. And we believe that there’s a good chance – though we don’t know for sure – that this “200 million man army” is attempting to attack the European forces which have wiped out their Islamic brothers and cousins. This Silk Road project will certainly make this easier for them. We believe the majority of these armies will be ISLAMIC!

In our article “Is This ‘the Beginning of Sorrows’?” it should be noted: because of the $32 billion Anatolia Dam Project in southeastern Turkey, the great river Euphrates is nearly “dried up.”

Tel Megiddo is in the tiny nation of Israel. Syria borders Israel to the northeast. We are witnessing continuing steps for such an Islamic confederation to come to pass, as well as a way to get to Tel Megiddo (Armageddon).

Concluding Comments

Minister Michael C. Garrett wrote, under the inspiration of God’s Spirit:
“Lamentations 1:3 – “Judah has gone into captivity, Under affliction and hard servitude; She dwells among the nations, She finds no rest; All her persecutors overtake her in dire straits.” – now, this did take place in 605 B.C.! THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN! So, many prophecies are dual – they have an earlier fulfillment, and they have a much larger, more significant fulfillment in the latter days! And this will be one of those latter days fulfillments. Verse 12 – “Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by? Behold and see If there is any sorrow like my sorrow, Which has been brought on me, Which the LORD has inflicted In THE DAY OF HIS FIERCE ANGER.” – the Day of the Lord!

Chapter 2, Verse 1 – “How the Lord has covered the daughter of Zion With a cloud in His anger! He cast down from heaven to the earth The beauty of Israel, And did not remember His footstool IN THE DAY OF HIS ANGER.” – ‘In the day of His anger’ is the Day of the Lord! Verse 5 – “The Lord was like an enemy. He has swallowed up ISRAEL, … And has increased mourning and lamentation In the daughter of Judah.” Verse 21 – “’ Young and old lie On the ground in the streets; My virgins and my young men Have fallen by the sword; You have slain them in THE DAY OF YOUR ANGER, You have slaughtered and not pitied.’” – now, ‘pray not for this people’ is indeed a Message from the Bible.”

Friends, a major change is prophesied – and it is coming – this world is about to get freight-trained! Let us all get our spiritual house in order NOW (Luke 21:34-36; Zephaniah 2:1-3).

With love and gratitude, in Jesus' Name,
