“Let There Be Light!” ~In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God... In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend... But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God... who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.~ Dear America, I am just one more voice in a whirlwind of thunderous echoes; and though these pleas might fall on deaf ears let all who have ears hear, Amen! America, it is obvious that we are in a state of grief. We are living through a pandemic that has claimed the lives of over [200],000 souls; and while we debate basic commonsense precautions, the death toll climbs along with its mental toll on our medical community. We have millions upon millions of households jobless and panic-stricken because they can’t make ends meet; meanwhile we all try and cope with our new normal being apart and away from the comfort of loved ones. The stitches from this country’s centuries-long racial wounds have burst wide; and while tears and blood stains our communities, we can no longer deny the injustices we have yet to overcome. We have all heard those heart-wrenching wails from migrant children ripped from their mothers’ bosom out of pure malice; and while immigrant families have been vilified and hate crimes rise, we must never become numb to the cruelties we bear witness. Moreover, we are in the middle of a presidential election, and the chaos swirling around us is just overwhelming. God granted mankind freewill and thus we’re imperfect; which makes us vulnerable and easily influenced, especially in the wrong hands. Moreso these days, there is an all-out campaign acutely targeted at exploiting our open-wounds to drive us farther apart solely to further personal political agendas. And while modern technology is a blessing, especially during a pandemic; it is also a blackhole making it easy to get sucked in and tangled up in its dark webs. It will get more and more difficult to see things clearly; and we’ll question who to trust and what to believe. Scripture warns of a time when even God’s elect could be led astray by a master manipulator. Now more than ever we must utilize our God-gifted light; which is powered by our sixth sense, our conscience. God has always been with us beloved brothers and sisters, and absolutely nothing is impossible with God! America, we must come together for the greatest mission. We have the chance to change course, but it takes all of us; no man left behind, everyone aboard the ark this time. This election transcends political party affiliations; let us send a resounding message to the darkness once and for all and vote Pro-Light. United we will be the light that shines across oceans and continents and wraps around the whole world. America is a work-in-progress which is what makes her beautiful; and we must never give up on the promise to make her comparable for all her children. Whichever side of history your ancestors were on, let us be the generation to right those wrongs and to liberate the oppressed. We have the opportunity of all-lifetimes to shelve the past and begin anew... let us light the way by making America Bright! May the grace and love of Jesus Christ light the world; whose compassion paid the ultimate price for all our sins. Amen! ~And now these three remain: faith, hope and love; but the greatest of these is Love.~
This channel needs to get more attention. Such awesome teachings from scripture, and always mentioning prophecy. Sooo important! Thank you Pastor I’ll pray for you guys
Pastor, wonderful teaching and preaching! Found you here on RUclips a few weeks ago and liked your style of teaching from Gods word and by providing some history and/ or comparisons to help me during my studies. Funny, and very ironic but last week I was lead to read Isaiah 54 and now yesterday I’ve started Hosea (which I ve never read before). two books you are discussing here in this video. Looking forward to more of your videos. Gods best blessings be yours.

Thank you Pastor Bret and Athey Creek team for putting out all these videos for us to learn from
