The Boston Red Sox won their second World Series in four years. Sorry folks, but this is for my Dad. He was a faithful Red Sox fan until he went to be with the Lord. He watched them play every game. He never lost faith faith in them.
I remember watching the Red Sox get so close then make foolish mistakes, I would say something stupid and my Dad would jump to their defense. He loved the Red Sox.
If my Dad was here he would be so proud of his home team.
Thank You Red Sox! We Love You!

Revelation 13? Implantable Chip
Implantable chips seem to be the in thing these days. According to a news story, 200 Alzheimer patients living near West Palm Beach, Florida will be implanted with a VeriChip that is part of a 2 year study. This will provide health care workers with immediate access to medical records. So far 90 Alzheimer patients have had the chip implanted.
Having your children implanted with VeriChip… This would help you keep track of them in case they were abducted, lost, run away from home, hurt or injured, their medical information would be readily available.
The Baja Beach Club in Barcelona, Spain is offering people signing up for VIP membership the choice between an RFID chip, (radio frequency identification), and a normal card. VIP members can reserve a table, jump the entrance queues, and use the clubs VIP lounge.
The original VeriChip was unveiled immediately after 9-11. It is similar to the pet identification chips. The VeriChip is about the size of a grain of rice and is injected under the skin. It can be read by a hand-held scanner or by the implantee walking through a “portal” scanner. Information can be wirelessly written to the chip, which contains a unique 10-digit identification number.
According to a WorldNetDaily article “The objective of this technology is to bring an ID system to a global level that will destroy the need to carry ID documents and credit cards.
Ahhh…the great deceiver at his best. It all looks so good on the surface. Each person implanted with a chip has their own identification number. A swipe of a scanner could reveal vital information in an emergency. It could locate a missing loved one through GPS. It is much more convenient then cash or credit cards, just swipe your hand.I believe that this is a forerunner of Revelation 13:16-18. ‘16And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:17And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.18Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
Lord Jesus, come quickly!

What is the rapture?
The rapture is the blessed hope of Christians. It is the "caught up" in the "clouds" to be with the Lord forever. This will be a physical disappearance, "in a moment, in a twinkling of an eye." Those who are raptured will be changed from a "corruptible body" to an "incorruptible" body. A new glorious body, never sick, without blemish, without sin, to live forever and ever with Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, 1 Corinthians 15:51-58.
There are 5 theories on when this will occur.
Pre-trib- The rapture will occur before the 7-year tribulation period.
Mid-trib - The rapture will occur at mid point of the tribulation.
Post-trib-The Rapture will occur at the end of the Tribulation right before the second coming of Christ back to earth; believers will be raptured up to meet Christ in the air and then will return immediately with Him back to the earth.
The partial rapture - Only the faithful, devoted believers will be raptured before the tribulation, the rest of the believers will be left behind to go through the tribulation.
Pre-Wrath - The rapture will take place 3/4 of the way into the tribulation, when the wrath of God begins to be poured out on the world.
I believe in a pre-tribulation rapture for many reasons.
1.The rapture is our "blessed hope." It is to be a comfort and blessing to believers, Titus 2:3.
2. We are told in the New Testament that the rapture is imminent, it could happen at anytime, 1 Thessalonians 1:9-10; 1 Corinthians 1:7; 16:22; Titus 2:3; Matthew 24:44
3. The Lord promised that believers are "delivered from the wrath to come" 1 Thessalonians 1:10; 5:9; Revelation 3:10
4. The anti-christ can not be revealed until the Holy Spirit be taken out of the world. 2 Thessalonians 2:6-7.
5. The church is not mentioned in the book of Revelation after chapter 3. In Revelation 4:1 "After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter. This is believed to be representing the church.
The rapture is a wonderful promise, a blessed hope given to us.
