TIME FOR A "SELAH!" ... Take a look at the frenzy, the fear and the misplaced focus that is being generated over the prophesied Blood Moons of 2014-2015. Celebrity preachers are showcasing the phenomena from pulpit to television; from DVDs to book sales; and from YouTube to You-Name-It! Even Fox News has interviewed Celeb Pastors about these forthcoming astronomical events. Somehow, I can't believe "That's what Jesus would do."
This media frenzy reminds me of the 1999 Y2K flurry when church leaders stirred up the people that
the world would come to a standstill at midnight, New Year's Eve. They wrote
books; made the talk-show circuits; visited hundreds of pulpits and profited $millions. And the people--out of fear, not faith--stockpiled food and water; built
fortresses; spent money they didn't have; and ignited the "prepping movement." But they either forgot or ignored that no
where in the New Covenant -- (you know, the one that governs our day) -- did Jesus tell us to do these things. To the contrary, He said "Take no thought for tomorrow..." And Y2K turned out to be a prophetic boondoggle.
I challenge you to take a few minutes to review an article by another Blogger, the "Olivet Journal," with which my Spirit agrees. (Click: http://olivetjournal.com/mark-biltz-a-false-prophet-of-the-blood-moon/)

I suspect the Blood
Moons will run their course, manifest, and the frenzy will dissipate because the dates touted by these Pastor Celebs follow the Talmudic Babylonian calendar--not the Levitical calendar God gave to Moses. It's
impossible to really know the dates of the feasts today because they've been
altered so many times. Perhaps that's what Jesus meant when He said, "No man knows the day or hour." That's how I see it. Shalom
