For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.” 5 For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water, 6 by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water. 7 But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.” – 2 Peter 3:1-7 ______________________________________________ “1Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of 2 sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. 3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither.

    MAYAN APOCALYPSE EXPECTED ON APRIL 28, 2017: Arrival of Ceres/Rings of Saturn (i.e., Nibiru, Planet 9, Planet X, etc.), 3-Day Global Solar Eclipse, 25-Day Transcendent Re-Creation of Earth & Emergence of 5th World Expected—Geneva-Based CIA-Run Media Will Predictably Claim Alien Invasion of Earth as Dictated Under NASA’s Secret ‘Project Blue Beam’ "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence." —Carl Sagan 12 REASONS WHY THE MAYA CALENDAR ENDS ON APRIL 28, 2017: I. It´s called the "May-a" Calendar because it ends in the month of May within the Solar Calendar and begins again in the month of May within the Gregorian Calendar. II: The Maya Calendar did not end on December 21, 2012—Will end at a future date, namely on Friday, April 28, 2017, the beginnig of the Apocalypse. III. There have been a total of 8 eclipses since April 15, 2014—4 lunar and 4 solar. Cosmic indicators to those paying attention that the beginning of a new age is soon here. IV. The date of April 28, 2017, is exactly 3-years and 14-days (i.e., 3.14 or π) since the first lunar eclipse on April 15, 2014, the first Blood Moon in millennia. V. The Mayans intimately linked Planetary Alignment with the End of the Maya Calendar which is inherently astrological in nature. VI. Planetary Alignment occurred from January 20, 2016, until February 20, 2016, evidently a once in a 5,125-year event. VII. NASA has repeatedly denied and lied about the existence of Planetary Alignment in 2016.

Red Flag 1: There are no endorsements or blurbs from other authors anywhere on this book. Not on the back or the front. It's all about Hagee and any other mention of Mark Blitz in regards to the Scripture in Joel as well as Acts The fact that other Christian teachers, scholars, pastors, and theologians don't endorse this book proves that its "prophetic". The fact that other Christian teachers, scholars, pastors, and theologians don't endorse this book proves that its "prophetic" end times propaganda with an agenda to push beliefs is not supported by others of validity in the Church. He drops a link in the middle of his book. If that isn't blatant self-promotion and propaganda pushing then Four Blood Moons: Something Is about to Change don't know what is. I am all about speaking, sharing, promoting, and talking about ministries but this is a little too far for me. As a reader I don't want to be told to go to a website and this self-promotion really does nothing for me in regards to my own spiritual walk other than raising an eyebrow and feeling uncomfortable. Please, tell me about your ministry, but don't force me to follow a link. Red Flag 3: This book does not have a header with a title, but with a hashtag.
