Dear God … Knee-Mail Book 1

Prison presents many challenges for both the inmates and the family who waits back home. One of the tremendous battles within the prison walls is the battle that takes place within your gray matter. Satan is a mastermind in fighting within this battle zone and many inmates just plain lose it mentally. Debauched thoughts, mental anguish, poor logic, deceptive and deceitful plans, and depression all easily fill your mind. And yes, Satan always works to fill our minds with the opposite of what God commands, whether within or outside of a physical prison cell. But somehow the prison walls have a “steroid effect” on the battle within the mind, growing these negatives exponentially. Paul the Apostle, no stranger to prison cells, told us what to do in Philippians 4:8.

“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.”

In an effort to apply Paul’s admonishment to my own mind, as well as to record a type of journal throughout my prison term, I have been writing short letters to God and short “knee-mails” that portray imaginary conversations with saints in Heaven. Some of the first 50 “journal entries” of this type form my new book, Dear God … Book 1. It is available as an E-Publication Download at creationstore.org and it is my heart’s desire that this book draw you closer to God as you read it. Here is a brief description of the book:

Are you hurting? Do you wonder if God is still up there or down here or even still in the picture of your life? Dear God … may be the encouragement you need. These Letters to God and imaginary conversations with people in Heaven via “Knee-Mails” portray real-life heartaches and God-answers from principles in Scripture. The charcoal drawings by artist Chrystalyn Costa and unique design by graphic artist Kaylee Kelso enhance the vivid scenes portrayed in many of the short stories.

You will laugh. You will cry. You will be re-directed as you read these 50 entries written out of a heart for God as author Kent Hovind grapples with some of life’s tough questions encountered in tough times. 190 pages.

Yesterday we celebrated the signing of the Declaration of Independence. What an honor it would have been to sign that document—but what a price. As our country becomes increasingly wicked, God will judge us. Life will continue to get harder. The burdens will get heavier. I hope this little book will serve as an encouragement to re-direct your thoughts—eternally!

See ya at the finish line!

The Colorado Fires

Wow! Windy and HOT these days! I’m getting a lot of mail and asking if the Colorado fires are a danger to us here. Short answer: not yet. We see smoke plumes 35 miles north of here from time to time and sure get the smoke smell quite often but no fires here. I don’t see anything within 5 miles that could burn! We do have lots of rocks and dust in this high desert though. We had a dust storm today that was amazing to watch! Visibility was about 100 yards. It’s been over 100F the last few days, too, but with the wind and low humidity it’s not like 100F in Florida! That’s for sure.

Several of the new converts (Daniel Kernes and Cesar Cansdale) have recently gone home! Several others are s-o-o-o-o-o-o thrilled to be getting mail from those who have responded to my plea! Thanks! It means more than you can ever know if you have never been locked up. See Pro. 25:25; Mt. 25:34-46 and Heb. 13:3 for starters to see what God thinks of that! If you would like a ministry that will bless you as much as them…get a prison pen pal. Lora Seybert at lora_holm@yahoo.com can send you the list.

On the legal front, Paul Hansen has been fighting this injustice the way it needs to be fought. I wasted five years fighting the case on the issues. I knew I was innocent and figured the courts would see that, too, but that’s not the way it works in America anymore. Only 1 out of 700 cases are overturned that way. It’s like a chess game where the opponent has permission to cheat and lie. Hmmm? You have to constantly challenge their lack of jurisdiction or lack of due process. There is no time limit on that. Paul Hansen has the John Hancock attitude I love! It doesn’t matter how big the enemy is. Just do right!

There are several motions in the courts now and others going in this week that I hope will overturn my case. I have uncovered over 20 violations of law by the government that put me in prison. I will pick at each and every one till I win!

I have also taken the offensive by filing a lawsuit for damages against the government. When I was moved out of the Edgefield, SC camp, they kept my legal box with all my files. I FINALLY got it 20 months later! During that same time they denied my other motions as being filed too late! How can you rule a time sensitive motion as being late when they kept my files??? WELL, they did so I filed suit. There is plenty of case law on my side for this one. The “Justice Department” is getting exposed for what it really is these days.

If you want to assist my fight financially contact Paul Hansen at pauljjhansen@hotmail.com. This is a battle that I believe NEEDS to be fought and won for the good of all ministries and freedom in general.

Amazon.com has posted Book One of my latest three book series I wrote for my grandchildren, The Adventures of the Hovind Grandchildren. Book Two is due up any day. Writing this series of stories has blessed me beyond words! I feel it will also be a great blessing to parents and grandparents, as well as the kids who are inspired to serve God by it! I can’t be home now to be the grandpa I always dreamed of being so I must do the next best thing and take an imaginary trip with them where I can teach them things. Above all, I want to teach my five grandchildren to love the Lord and win souls! (I actually have an ulterior motive! I want to win the grand prize God offered in Daniel 12:3!! NOW you know!)

Please read these three stories as they are posted and send me your comments. Please continue to pray Acts 12:5 style for my soon release. Win souls! See you at the finish line.

Nine Months until the Mark of the Beast?

June 27, 2012

Ya might want to share this information with folks you love…or even the ones you hate! Not many folks realize it, but Obamacare Law HR3200, that NOBODY read before they voted for it, requires that everyone get an implanted micro-chip by March 23, 2013. Hmmm? That’s less than nine months away! There is an article explaining in great detail what is hidden in this crazy law on p. 3 of the Apr-Jun, 2012 issue of The Trumpet posted on www.unregisteredbaptistfellowship.com. (317-414-3478) PO Box 11 Indianapolis, IN 46206. The following excerpt from this article gives you an idea of how the legal jargon of the bill comes down.

Another Hidden Secret in Obamacare
RFID Chip Implants
By Fred Brownbill on Constitution Legal Watch

March 2013 Deadline for Implementation
This new Health Care (Obamacare) law requires an RFID chip implanted in all of us. This chip will not only contain your personal information with tracking capability, but it will also be linked to your bank account. And get this, Page 1004 of the new law (dictating the timing of this chip), reads, and I quote: “Not later than 36 months after the date of the enactment”.

It is now the law of the land that by March 23rd 2013, we will all be required to have an RFID chip underneath our skin and this chip will be link to our bank accounts as well as have our personal records and tracking capability built into it.

“And 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:” Revelation 13:16. ALL new Bible versions have changed that IN to ON. Hmmmm? I been tellin’ folks to get a KJV Bible!

Stay faithful to the Lord as the world falls apart and win souls! Daniel 12:3 is the prize I’m after! What are you after? Money? Muscles? Pleasures?

See ya at the finish line!!!

Words of Wisdom from My Dad

May 17, 2012

My dad (Robert Hovind 1920-1993) was an electrical engineer for Caterpillar Tractor Company in Peoria for many years. He was a VERY smart man! In addition to his brilliant mind, Dad possessed enormous amounts of common sense. He often had great words of practical wisdom for me as I brought him my problems. I was scanning channels a few weeks ago and heard a song called “I hear voices.” Hmmmm… me, too, a voice from the past—my Dad’s!

One day as a young man, some kids were talking badly about me behind my back. I went to my dad, and the following is the gist of our conversation, a great example of Dad’s wisdom.

“Son, you say a few kids are saying bad things about you behind your back at school and this hurts you? Let me try to put this in perspective for you. As I see it there are four kinds of people in the world. Let’s see which kind of people they are and what kind of person you want to be.

1. Great people with great minds.
These people spend their time thinking about and talking about ideas, concepts, plans, goals, and dreams. These people change the world! Be one of those.

2. Average people with average minds.
These people spend their time thinking about and talking about events. What’s for lunch? What movie is showing this week? Who won the game? Did you get a deer last week? Have you heard about the tornado in Alabama? Have you seen the new Vet!? Who will care in 1,000 years?!

3. Weak people with weak minds.
These people spend their time thinking about and talking about other people. Who is the best golfer? Who is the best quarterback? Who got a raise at work?

4. Evil people with evil minds.
These people spend their time talking about other people behind their back where they can’t defend themselves. Did you notice so and so showed up late again? Did you see that awful dress Sally was wearing? What do you think about the birthday gift she gave him? He really thinks he is something, doesn’t he?

Son, these people talk about you till you enter the room and then they start again when you leave; but, while you are there they will pretend they are your friend and smile and be nice and kind. They are hypocrites, son. Jesus warned us about them in Matthew 7:15. They are foolish and evil. They will accomplish nothing with their lives and will prevent you from accomplishing anything of value as well if you spend time with them or let them get to you. Avoid them, son. Forget them and walk away. (Proverbs 14:7).

It is not even worth trying to point out their problem to them. If you tell a pig he stinks he will do five things:

A. He won’t agree.
B. He won’t understand the problem.
C. If he does understand the situation, he won’t see it as a problem.
D. He won’t be glad you told him about it.
E. Finally, he’ll get mad at you for telling him. Save your breath!

Be a great person, Son.

Now, let’s hear more about that idea you had the other day…”

Hmmmm… Matthew 6:33

The Latest from Colorado

Wow! A Colorado dust storm here today! It is almost always windy here, but today it is W-I-I-I-N-D-Y! The weather is beautiful but the temperature is dropping like a rock!

God just keeps putting needy men “in the way.” I’ve been blessed to lead another man to Christ in the last few days. What a blessing!

I keep getting mail from folks telling me my son, Eric, is doing a GREAT job out there with his Creation Today ministry. (creationtoday.org) That is a blessing beyond words! If your church has never had a creation seminar, then you should! It will strengthen people’s faith and challenge them to do more soul winning. THAT is about all that will matter in 1,000 years.

On the legal front: The 11th circuit court in Atlanta now has my Motion to Reconsider En Banc which I filed pro se. As always, I ask God’s children to pray Acts 12:5 style for my release. In the meanwhile, there are several bills in the works that would cut my time and set me free. House Bill #225 and Senate Bill #1231 would do just that, but both bills nearly always die in committee. I suppose asking the same people who profit from the prison system to vote to cut it back is asking a lot! I Timothy 6:10 anyone? Maybe there should be a law that those involved in locking people up (lawyers, judges, congress etc.) cannot own stock and therefore profit from the prison system that they feed with prisoners. Hmmmm?

Keep an eye on Israel and Iran. It sure sounds like Daniel and Revelation! It’s getting close folks! Stay close to the Lord and get busy for Him while there is still time.

Open Letter to Shelley Trebesch

Written March 15, 2012

Dear Shelley,

I am writing this as an open-letter to you, as I do not have your address. I will send a copy to your publisher: Barnabas Publishers, PO Box 6006, Altadena, CA 91003 and hope that you will get a copy.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for writing “Isolation, A Place of Transformation in the Life of a Leader.” A friend sent me your book. I was intrigued by the title, so I read a few pages and was hooked! I couldn’t put it down until I finished it. As you said, God puts 95% of His leaders through a time of “isolation” like Joseph in prison, Moses in the desert, and even Jesus in the desert for 40 days. Both the Bible and history record hundreds of example where God takes a man away from a ministry for a time of isolation either with prison, captivity, illness, or other circumstance in order to gain a deeper relationship with Himself, and to prepare the individual for an even greater ministry. It has helped me to see my prison time from God’s perspective. I’ve seen Him working inside me in hundreds of ways that are hard to explain.

Many people are “isolated” in a hospital, wheelchair, prison cell, a bad relationship, and are unable to see God’s hand in it. I pray that concerned friends will send “isolated people” a copy of your book so it can bless them like it blessed me!

My “isolation experience” or “desert experience” as you call it has sure caused me to go through the roller-coaster of emotions you describe so well. It is most encouraging to understand that this is a normal part of the process of God training a leader. I’m deeply concerned that many will fall away from serving the Lord in the trial of their faith, because they are not armed with an understanding of how God will use all trial, testing, and tribulation for His glory and their good.

Jesus warned His disciples that they WOULD endure tribulation, prison, trials, and even death. Yet, s-o-o-o-o-o many Christians have been lulled to sleep in prosperity, that when they face trials, they are totally unprepared. Thank you for showing us again in your book that “isolation time”—even prison and persecution—is not only normal, but good in the life of a believer.

You also mention in your book that God will use an “isolation time” to cause a “paradigm shift” in the life and ministry of a leader. That has sure happened to me in many areas. Though I am ready for this trial to be over, I can see how important this time has been in my growth as God’s child.

Thank you again for sharing your experience. I pray that it helps millions to continue serving the Lord. I’ll see you at the finish line!

In Christ,

Kent Hovind

My 44th Year as God’s Child

February 10, 2012

I sit at my tiny 27″W x 15″D ‘desk’ answering mail and questions like I have done nearly every day for the last five and a quarter years. During that time, I have only had three days with no mail. Mail has been SUCH a blessing and encouragement! (See Pro. 25:25 and Mt. 25:34-46). I’m embarrassed that I still need encouraged. Elijah, too, was a man of like passions (James 5:17) and he got REALLY down a time or two himself (1 Kings 19:4-18).

I was saved February 9, 1969. Here I am, on the first day of my 44th year as God’s child in prison. This situation is no different than LOTS of God’s kids have endured over the centuries. Because the world hates God, so the world hate us as God’s kids, too! As I sit here answering Alen’s letter from Croatia, I am overwhelmed by God’s goodness and grace! I am answering a letter from a man I have never met, who is in a country I have never been. Yet, God graciously allowed me to minister to him through the seminar DVD series. Hmmmm? Whodathunkit?

Alen enjoyed the series so much, that he paid his lost sister to translate Part One into English and she was saved as a result!

“My sister, Aleksadra, has become a Christian! How? Well, she was unemployed, so I gave her a DVD entitled, “The Age of the Earth” to translate it, and I gave her some money, of course. While translating, she repented and put her life in the hands of the Lord Jesus. I am sorry for my bad English language, but it is easier for me to translate English to Croatian (Hrvatski) than to write or to speak English. Sorry.”

Alen, PLEASE don’t be sorry! You blessed me beyond words! Knowing that the Mighty God of the Universe is willing to let us feeble humans work in His Kingdom is just… well, just overwhelming some days!

Today is the beginning of the rest of our lives! It is never too late to sign up in God’s army!

KH

By The Way: There was a great program on coasttocoastam.com last night, February 9, 2012! Check nongmoshoppingguide.com! I mention population reduction in The Creation Seminar – Part One.

A Day in the (Prison) Life

A Day in the (Prison) Life of Kent Hovind
Written on January 19, 2012

Five years ago today I was sentenced to ten years in federal prison — three of them for praying for a man on the radio and five of them for taking our own ministry money out of our own ministry bank account to pay the ministry bills! Whoda’ thought it could happen in America? It actually might be funny if it were not happening to me!

The case is still on appeal at the 11th circuit as well as motions to the district court. I still maintain my integrity and innocence as did scores of Bible characters like Joseph, Job, Paul, etc. God has been s-o-o-o-o-o good during this time of captivity! I see now why He often let the heathen take His children into captivity or prison even though they had done nothing to deserve it. (See Jeremiah 37, 38, Ezekiel 1, Daniel 1, etc.) This whole experience has changed me in a thousand ways (all good I hope) and I pray I will be even more useful for Him when I get out. The time to read, pray, meditate, rest, and write is great! (I’m rested Lord! Can I go home now?)

Anyway, many have asked what a typical day for me in the prison is like; s-o-o-o-o-o, here is the schedule of a typical day in my prison life:

  • 4:00 am Woke up and listened to coasttocoastam.com radio show for 30 minutes. I’ve been guest on that program a few times. They have a wide range of folks as guests and often it is good stuff! I often wake up between 3-5 am and listen to part of that program.
  • 4:30 am Back to sleep for an hour and a half of the sweetest sleep of the night!
  • 6:00 am Up, dressed, and walk to chow hall for breakfast and to drop off outgoing mail before 7:00 am.
  • 6:45 am Met one of the 20+ new inmates arriving at the prison to help orient him to where things are and what he is to do.
  • 7:10 am Shower and clean room.
  • 7:30 am Meet with several of the new converts I am discipling for daily Bible reading. Read Genesis 24 and had a great discussion! That is one of my favorite chapters! The father sent the servant to the far country to get a bride for his only son. Sounds like God sending the Holy Spirit to earth to get a bride for Christ! That will preach! (See “Where’s The Bride?” DVD.)
  • 8:00 am Sign in at education even though I don’t teach till 1:30.
  • 8:05 am Spent more time showing the new guy how the email and phone work and gave him a quick tour of the camp.
  • 8:25 am Print out labels for tomorrow’s mail. We are only allowed to print five labels per day. :(
  • 8:30 am Answered letters back in the room.
  • 9:50 am Check and answer email and drop off about a dozen letters to mail. Walk a mile and work out with small weights to rebuild my torn rotator cuff from softball injury while I was in Edgefield, SC almost two years ago! You’ll find out when you get old!
  • 10:15 am Back to room to rest till lunch call. (I love and practice Psalm 4:4!)
  • 10:45 am Call to lunch. Fried Chicken. Food here is pretty good! NOT as good as the wife can cook though! Miss THAT BAD!
  • 11:15 am Back to dorm to read and rest. There are no bars or fences here and we are free to walk to other buildings on the prison camp compound most of the day.
  • 12:00 pm Send and receive email again and go to law library to type on various projects.
  • 1:00 pm Took a short break to walk half mile and work out shoulder again. It is a beautiful day today — 60 degrees, very sunny and WINDY! Typical high desert weather.
  • 1:10 pm Back to typing projects.
  • 1:30 pm Teach GED math class. This is both a blessing and a real eye opener! Many others have documented the planned, deliberate decline in the American public school system so I will simply add my voice to say, “Wow! What a problem! What a lack of learning!“
  • 2:30 pm Go to commissary to get my shopping list of little things needed here. The BOP marks up everything sold to inmates 30%. (Search the web for who profits from this!) Most guys get paid $.12 per hour which equals between $6 and $20 per month. I make $17 per month for teaching in the GED classes. Not bad for fifteen year’s experience and five post graduate degrees! (I thought Abe Lincoln fought a big war to stop slave labor. Somebody needs to notify these folks!)
  • 2:50 pm Worked typing legal paperwork. I’ve been trying to get my legal files that were kept in Edgefield, SC when I was taken out of that prison nineteen months ago! The prison in Edgefield still has not sent them to me, and now the courts claim that I was late filing my 2255 motion! More bureaucratic insanity!
  • 3:15 pm Checked and answered email.
  • 3:30 pm Went to gym for Mail Call. I received 12 letters! What a blessing! See Proverbs 25:25. I wish everyone got some mail. Call the Creation Today office for a list of men who need encouragement via mail. 850-479-3466.
  • 3:45 pm “Town Hall” meeting in the gym for the Assistant Camp Administrator to tell us some of the guys are not keeping their room clean enough. I know a great way to solve that problem — send us all home!
  • 4:00 pm Line up for Count Time in the dorms.
  • 4:10 pm Read mail and take a ten-minute nap!
  • 4:45 pm Supper time.
  • 6:00 pm For over four years I have been working on another degree. The last requirement is the writing of another dissertation. I have been writing this during the past several years. I was about 90% finished, and was having it mailed back to me for the final proof and additions before I submitted to the school. The mail room here sent the rough draft back saying that because I did not take the courses offered here at the prison, I could not receive it. For the last six months I have filed papers back and forth with prison officials requesting that I be allowed to be given all my mail. I could write a book on the ridiculous obstacles the prison officials have put in my way but then, Nehemiah, Moses, and a host of others had problems to overcome as well. It sure seems like someone, maybe Satan, does NOT want this information to be printed! The dissertation is based on II Peter 3 where the scoffers are ignorant of the creation, the flood, and the coming judgment. I’ll keep trying!
  • 6:30 pm I did something I VERY rarely do — I watched the last half of the movie shown in the chapel on Thursday night. It was “Angels in the Outfield.” VERY STUPID! Now I remember why I don’t do this!
  • 7:30 pm Had Bible study with several of the young converts here. Wow! It is great to watch them grow in the Lord! God has let me lead about 15 men to Christ in the last two months! Creation Today has a list of their names. If God leads you, please send letters, one gospel tract and KJV Bibles to these men!
  • 9:40 pm Back to the dorm to check email.
  • 10:00 pm Count time — again!
  • 10:20 pm Read till sleepy.

This entire prison system is a HUGE waste of time, energy and money! Why would America host 5% of the world’s population and yet host 25% of the world’s prisoners? Hmmmm? Maybe because the politicians and judges are allowed to own stock in the prison industries? There are lots of simple suggestions to fix this problem in The Kennel by Elijah Green that is posted someplace on line. When I become king, I’m shutting this place down! Do you honestly think that the politicians and justice department employees who profit from this prison system that destroys families will vote to scale it back or shorten prison times? See I Timothy 6:10 for the answer! There is plenty of legislation proposed each year to help fix the problems, but it almost always dies in committee.

Meanwhile, I’ll just keep winning souls and discipling them like the Lord commanded. Please pray Acts 12:5 style for my release and for the growth of these new converts. As usual I have lots of paperwork in the courts that could set me free.

In Christ,

Kent Hovind

Year-End Message from Dr. Hovind

 

Written December 31, 2011

The End of the Year ~ Time to Take a Look

I. The Look Back ~
We made it! The year 2011 is over. Who would have thought the world would make it this long? Lots happened during 2011 in the Hovind family, in the ministry outreach, and in my personal life. God blessed greatly! (Duh!) Against my wishes, I was moved from Georgia to Colorado. The prison camp here has 500 guys; is beautiful, clean, and safe; and has a great view of the mountains including Pike’s Peak 35 miles due north. I’m free to write, teach Bible studies and serve God. I’ve been blessed to lead about 20 men to Christ at this camp and am actively discipling about a dozen who are still here. Many of their names are on the previous blogs and they love getting letters!

Following the example found in Luke 2:52 of growing physically, mentally, socially, and spiritually, I use the end of each year to check each of those areas in my life. I don’t know why, (my two inch mattress, the mountain air, regular chiropractic :) ) but I have actually grown since coming here. I’m now 6’2″ not 6’1″. Who cares? Well, my 5’0″ wife might as it might stretch her neck even more to kiss me if they let me go HOME! :) My torn rotator cuff is better but not 100%. I’m picking up some Spanish and French, teaching GED math, reading a lot of history, writing lots of stories and booklets, and am still very close to finishing the dissertation for another doctorate. It deals with the creation, the flood, and the coming judgment as outlined in 2 Peter 3.

I still get and answer about 40—60 letters each week and am s-o-o-o-o-o-o grateful for the mail and the encouragement it brings. In my 1,885 days of being locked up I’ve only had 2 (two) days where I got no mail! MANY guys here receive NONE! Psalm 142:4 says “no man cared for my soul” and that describes many of the men in prison. I’ll continue listing names of men who need encouragement and would be MOST thankful if you would write them.

Eric’s new ministry, God Quest, is producing lots of great creation materials! Keep an eye on him as he continues to do great things for the Lord! Hopefully you have read about “The Genesis Project!” This enormous undertaking may reach millions for Christ!

 

II. The Look Forward ~
What will the new year bring? Only God knows the future but He has revealed a LOT in His Word. One thing is for sure as I see it: December 21, 2012 is NOT the end of the world or the date of the rapture. Matthew 24 is very clear on the subject as is Mark 13 and Luke 21 and 2 Thessalonians 2:1-3. The “gathering together” of God’s elect comes AFTER the sun and moon go dark. That unmistakable cosmic event is mentioned at least 10 times in Scripture (Is. 13:10; Ezek. 32:7; Joel 2; Mt 24:29; Mk 13:24; Lk 21:25; Acts 2:20; Rev 6:12, etc) and provides a GREAT ‘anchor’ around which we can study eschatology. It’s sort of like a big Sudoku puzzle. I’ve been working on my study of end times for years and have had to change my theology several times. As I study the Scripture, I believe things will continue to get much worse on planet earth and we will be here for part of it. I suggest everyone who wants to know what to do read carefully God’s Word and do what it says. Win souls like never before in your life. Nothing else will matter in 5,000 years I assure you!

I hope to write many more stories, knee-mails, and blogs praying that they will help others grow in grace.

I continue to file motions in the courts pro se, hoping to exonerate myself in this case. I feel a little like Moses felt after Pharaoh turned down his ninth appeal to let the people go. Maybe God will have to talk to Pharaoh a little louder. Thanks for your Acts 12:5 style prayers!

 

III. The Look Around ~
Souls are lost, people are hurting financially and in many other ways. The need is great everywhere! DO SOMETHING for the Lord! There has never been a better time in earth’s history to serve God. FANAFI! (Find a need and fill it!) Persecution of believers world wide is at an all time high. More Christians have been killed for their faith in the last 100 years than in the preceding 2000 years! I suspect the great “falling away” is upon us.

 

IV. The Look Inside ~
This is a great time of year (Actually, any time will do) to look inside and examine your life and heart. (Ps. 139). God promised He would “hear from Heaven, forgive our sin and heal our land” (BOY do we need THAT!) if we would “Humble ourselves, pray, seek His face, turn from our wicked ways.” II Chron. 7:14. Look inside today and ask yourself, “Could I be part of the world’s problem? Will God judge America because of me and my sin? Is my heart right with God? If not, see and apply I Jn. 1:9! FAST! Are you a godly person? Are you trying to follow God’s will? Check your God given role and duties against Eph. 5; Col. 3; I Pt 3, etc. and fix any errors you see.

 

V. The Look Up! ~
God is not tired. He is not worried. He is not sleeping. He is not distracted. He is never caught off guard. He knows the end from the beginning. He is not late. He is not weak. He is not calloused. He may indeed need to let us suffer so others can be saved. He is not willing that ANY should perish! Even in judgment, He remembers mercy. Trust His promises. He clearly told us His will. Mary said it best in John 2, “Whatsoever He saith unto you, DO IT!” Her command was the BEST ADVICE EVER GIVEN!

May God bless you in the coming year!
Kent Hovind

Open Letter to Tom Ish

Dear Brother Ish,

Thank you so much for faithfully producing the fabulous Creation Illustrated magazine for so many years. The pictures are stunning and the articles on creation are incredible! I especially enjoyed the article on the Quaking Aspen in the latest issue! Wow! I’ll use that one to reach others with the Gospel! There are about a dozen men here that I’ve led to the Lord in the last few weeks who meet with me twice a day for Bible study. These men are growing spiritually by leaps and bounds and REALLY appreciate your magazine as well! We share it all around the prison. Keep up the great work of glorifying the Creator even as the world falls apart. We need your ministry now more than ever! Please don’t get weary in well doing.

I hope thousands of folks purchase gift subscriptions to send others for Christmas, or birthdays, or ANY excuse! This magazine speaks to both the saved and the lost. The Lord can use this resource to change lives forever! (www.creationillustrated.com; 800-360-2732)

Thanks for your friendship over the years. Keep serving the Lord and winning souls!

Merry Christmas!
Kent Hovind
