I always had high hopes of getting a Word to get ready to moveto one of the `Green Pasture' areas. But not so for me .

And, 'Who do you think you are to talk to God?'—kind of questions.Needless to say, I come home some weekends with my stomach churning, and praying forthese people. Their unbelief is so great that it hurts me! But Jesus asked me to `pleasereconsider my decision to drop out oithcir study class, and to regroup.' I was ready toquit the church altogether, and they were ready to kick me out, but Jesus sent me backagain. How can you say no' when Jesus asks Please'?

Comment b y Chuck-JOHN EL: One would think (hope) that a pastor, instead of rejectinga brother who is receiving a Word from the Lord, would instead help him listen to JESUS,encourage and confirm what he could confirm in and out of prayer and abiding in the LordJESUS CHRIST. This is actually one of the primary functions of a pastor - to encouragethose in his/her congregation to come to KNOW JESUS, to seek Him out, to know HisPerfect Will for them and to help them recognize His Word and overcome the carnality thatwe are all hampered by.

Overcoming the self-nature, the soulish self (also called carnality) is what everyone whoseeks to grow in Christ will be confronted by. JESUS who saves us also "keeps" us; butin truth, the behavior that Rick's pastor is exhibiting is outrageous, hurtful and makesgrowing in Christ a real trial.

if! met this pastor I'd have to resist saying, "shunie on you!" because he is acting morelike a devil than a man of God.

Comment h Chuck-J HNEL: Concerning the shift of the magnetic North Pole - thereare significant upheavals going on deep in the earth, the foremost being the rent in theearth's mantle which will have the most serious consequences for those living on thisplanet. A shift of the magnetic North Pole has being going on for some time, minor shiftshave occurred over the years and this appears to be due to a shift of corma deep in the earthwhich is also a cause of the rent in the earth's mantle. It is all interconnected.

Increased volcanic activity worldwide will be common as the rent in the earth's mantlecomes closer to the surface - that and more severe topographical changes.

The growth of the Fast Antarctic ice sheet by 45 billion tons is interesting - what about thefabled warming of the earth due to driving cars about? Oh well, junk science is still junk

science.

Years ago. in the central judgment revelation/message of JESUS CHRIST, the collapse ofthe economic system was revealed to be a part of the judgment.

Letter from Sarah B. Au.'. 15, 2005 (Quote) "Your prophetic revelations concerning thecoming judgments and tribulations have caused me to focus on the issue of allowing Jesusto work through me to help my children through the times ahead. I am a mother of 4 sons.The oldest is a recent college grad. And the three younger ones are aged 9, 8, and 4 mos.I believe God's Word about the last days (however long they last) and believe that it is justas important to prepare our children as we ourselves prepare. I especially feel sad for thosewho have followed the modern Church teachings about a pre-Tribulation Rapture. Theyare most likely not preparing their families for any types of disasters because they believethey will be `out ofhere' before things get too rough. My husband and 1 have talked to our

bo ys about the times ahead in a way that we hope will strengthen them without terrifyingthem. We talk about how we live in a fallen world through man's original sin and use thestories of Adam and Eve, and Noah, to illustrate our point. Last week, we had a severethunderstorm here. The weather service issued a tornado warning (not real common here

in northern Pennsylvania). I was home alone with my three youngest. The thunder wasloud and the lightning cracked! Our electricity went out I told the boys we were goingto the safest part of the house and wait the storm out. As we sat together on the floor, my

8-year old asked if we could pray. I told him it was an excellent idea. I told him to

remember that we pray for God's heavenly protection every single day and that we must

believe God answers our prayers. The storm passed and we were fine. We found out,

Page 4 The Staff and Sword Ministry - We Get Letters December 1, 2005

Letter from Sarahh B., Aug. 15, 2005 (Quote continued) however, that a tornado did hit thesouth end of town. We also later found out that our oldest son was driving horse fromwork through that section of town during the storm. His car was hit by some sort ofwhirlwind and he had to pull over. When he started up again, a huge oak tree tell in the

road just ahead of him. I-lad he not pulled over, he could have been hit by that tree! Ishould add here that after I received the Seal of the Living God in 2001, I passed thatprayer onto my family so they all received God's Seal too.

Anyway, my point here is that we should also be preparing our children as God

works through us in these very trying days and the days ahead. I'd appreciate anyprayerful discernment you may have on this issue. God bless you and Nancy in Christ'sName." (Unquote)

Comment by Chuck-JOHNEL: Children are made of sterner stuff than most of us realize- but being careful in how the revelation of the coming judgment is presented is equallyi mportant. They do need to know and be prepared spiritually, physically and emotionallyfor the times ahead - which will be terrifying for those adults and children who are notprepared. Panic, fear, depression and suicide will run rampant among those who areunprepared and who have been misled by their church leaders (with comments like: "Oh,God wouldn't do that to us" or 'We will be raptured out befo re that happens. ") When thereality of the judgment impacts them they will at first he stunned, then blame God and thenfall into disarray - fail apart.

We need understand (the children and all of us) that the times ahead will be toughand even hard but that God is with us as we look to Him and that He will bring as all theway through. But again, preparing children can and should be done - they need be fortifiedin and by faith in Jesus Christ and the certainty of God the Father's love and help no matterwhat happens_

Herein Lansing, Ml, I see major divisions about women pastors or apostles. It's a divisive hotissue amongst the Body of Christ in a myriad of Church of Man (& Woman) issues in ourday. After working in ministry for years now (since F-years old, now in my 30's), it's sadto see the Body so divided. If you wouldn't mind sharing what our Heavenly Father, LordJesus Christ, and His precious Spirit have revealed on this topic, I would very muchappreciate any feedback you can give. I've been under management women in multipleoffices—self-appointed and God-appointed—read the Scriptures in detail on both sides ofthe debate, and have read over the years what you have shared about the soul-womanispirit-man through tapes, newsletters and the like.

Letter from Rob L. .trr r. 18 2005 (Quote continued on this and God's perfect will

pertaining to leadership, headship, and pastoral or apostolic roles in the Body. In Christ's

love. Rob." (Unquote)

Response by Chuck-JOHNEL: The real problem is carnality at work in the church. It is

now a matter of historic fact that females held Apostolic positions in the first centurychurch (scientific diggers found that out years ago) - apparently the first century churchhad no problems with this issue and this is probably because they understood what theApostle Paul meant, having spiritual insight.

As you probably already know, the HOLY SPIRIT and JESUS gave me to understand thatin the Book of Genesis the terms "man" and "woman" did not have the same meaning aswe apply to them today. "Man" speaks of "spirit" and "woman" speaks of "soul"- thus the

terms "male and female" are a different issue and not connected to man and woman.

The Apostle Paul wrote, "for it is a shame for women to speak in the church " (I

Corinthians 14: 35)- by this Paul spoke of those who were "soulish" or "carnal" (not ledby the Spirit of God) and those "women" he spoke of could be either a male or a female.

The Apostle Paul also made the distinction elsewhere saying, "There is neither Jew norGreek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male or female: for ye are all

one in Christ Jesus." (Galatians 3: 28)

So if the Apostle Paul on Holy Spirit leading on one hand (Galatians 3: 28) makes it clear

there is no distinction between male or female but ALL ARE ONE IN CHRIST JESUS(co-equals), then when he speaks of "women" in I Corinthians 14: 35 - lie cannot bespeaking of "females." His position on that is clear - females are co-equals in Christ with

males. End of discussion!

The problem is that male dominance in the church is a long accepted reality - but again,it is the carnality of the church whereby this has become a "fact".

Most of the resistance to females being pastors in the church springs from a resistance tothe objectives of "women's liberation" which is seen as an affront to the Bible. However,

they don't really know what the Bible says on the issue because they are blinded by their

doctrines and belief systems.

In this Ministry we have both males and females in positions of leadership - this is how theHoly Spirit has led me and the performance of both males and females has always beenexcellent and anointed by God. The carnal church will not want to see what the Scriptures

really say - so what else is new'?!

Letter from Claudia P., Aug. 31, 200 (Quote) "Hi, Chuck-JOHNEL and Nancy-TONI!Thank-you with all of my heart in Jesus for all of your faithfulness over all of these yearsto God our Father, and to Jesus our Saviour, and to the Holy Spirit our Comforter. It is allcoining together as the judgments continue on-the witnessing to others as to the what'sand why's of what is happening (Katrina, and more later)-the strengthening which wereceive from our (NOP) daily gathering together before God's throne, our daily agreementin prayer. our confessing of our sins and our repentance, our utter reliance upon Jesus-somuch I learned over all of these years, since 19801 believe. All thanks be to God for thefaithfulness to Him of all who are willing to be faithful to Him. Even my husband, whoprays the prayers without belonging to the NOP has told me of a definite sense ofpreparation and fortification in his spirit. God bless you always and Jesus' sweet preciouslove to you always." (Unquote)

Letter from t3 7ade H, Aug. I5 . 2005 (Quote) "1 wanted to share with you what I saw as the67-Day confirming event on June 5, 2005. Just before 1 left for work I was monitoring theFox channel for the 67-Day event when suddenly they had a picture showing, a newRussian missile that they claimed could get past the Anti-Missile Defense System that weare currently testing in the USA.

"The missile was round like any other missile, but it had fins on two opposite sidesthat were nearly as thick as the missile was round. The missile was laying on a trailer,which `could be' a platform from which it would be launched... .

"I `believe' the (great) Chicago earthquake will take place in September, 2008. Ialso `think' the seventeen (17) in the clouds are months, not years. `If' I am correct, thenthere will be a great flood in April, 2007, which would start the 17-month countdown tothe Chicago earthquake. I have no clear word from the Lord, so it's just food for thought."(Unquote)

Chuck-JOHNLL's Comments: In the vision of God in 1983 I literally saw the U.S. anti-ballistic missile defense system destroying Russians warheads. In 1989 JESUS told me thatPresident George Bush would build this anti-ballistic missile defense system. The Net ofPrayer and Ministry intercessors have prayed since 1983 to obtain this promise and inOctober, 2004 the missile defense system President Bush built was installed. I believe itwill do exactly what GOD THE FATI-IER sheaved me it will do regardless of Russianclaims to the contrary. I have a certain boldness about this because 1, like many, haveprayed since 1983 to obtain God's help and "know" by faith that we have acquired it in andout of prayer-intercession by faith.

Letter from Wade H. Au g . 15 2 H EL's Comm cuts (coin tinued) :

Well, "if' what you "think" is accurate then we can expect a MAJOR EARTHQUAKE tostrike St. Louis, Missouri this coming September 19, 2006 - a prelude event to comeapproximately 2 years before the monster earthquake of July 5

`h (the one that destroys the

Midwest and sees the Great Lakes flooding out of their lake beds.)

"If" such an event happens then the year 2008 would be the year of nuclear strike againstthe U.S. by Russia, China with Japan to he followed by invasion a month later.

However, we have already seen the relevance of the number "17" as having to do with a

17 year period:

CHALLENGER January 28, 1986 +17 years +4 days = COLUMBIA February 1, 2003

COLD FRONT January 27, 1986 +17 years -3 days =COLD FRONT January 24, 2003

We have seen no incidence of judgment events repeating on a 17 month basis to date -perhaps we missed something, but the HOLYSPIRIT had quickened Nancy-TONI to thenumber 17 as being 17 years and we have the evidence of that in view.

Nonetheless, thank you Wade for sharing your thoughts on the matter.

Reply by Chuck-JDHNEL: Pestilence is defined as a contagious or infectious epidemicdisease that is virulent and devastating. Iii April 1977 JESUS revealed that such a"pestilence" would come to our shores from the west as well as a plague from Georgia.This is covered in the main Newsletter in some detail. So, the answer is "yes" pestilence

fits into the judgment.

There was even more - dead lying in the streetsunattended, fires burning unchecked, civil violence and, as seen in the earthquake visionof 1973, armed thugs marauding, stopped only by civilians who were armed, The unarmedcivilians became victims - were robbed, raped, murdered at will by the thugs.

Letter from Connie tJ Sept. G 2005 (Quote continued) the Net of Prayer."I wanted to make a few comments about the disaster in New Orleans and the

subsequent unrest and trauma that is happening there. Twenty years ago I was able to goto New Orleans and be there for several days. I was able to wander the streets as manytourists do and I was appalled at the sin and debauchery that was present then. 1 havenever been back and have always felt if there was a place for God's judgment to fall, itwould surely be there. In my prayer time I was pondering the situation there as I watchpeople walking through the filthy waters. Then I remember a broadcaster saying that thesepeople were coming forth from the sewers ofNew Orleans and it hit me like a ton of bricks

that now those who have lived there and supported that lifestyle are now walking, someare swimming through the worst of human conditions and I felt that it was from Godsaying to them, `You have created this filth, now wallow in it.' I also see the spirit ofrebellion in those that are looting and causing harm to the innocent. I mentioned toRichard to realize where these hurricanes originate—Africa. Look at the terrible genocideand murderous spirit that has manifested there. Could that spirit be brought to Americathrough these storms? I know we are only seeing the tip of the iceberg here but my spirittells me that the clock is ticking and we had better be doing the will of the Father anddrawing nearer to the Lord than ever before, as it's only going to go downhill from here,and fairly quickly. My joy is in knowing that His Kingdom is coming. Praise His Name!The Victory is His! It's an honor to be in His `army'." (Unquote)

Comment hi' Chack-JOHNNEL: My travels across North America brought me and usthrough New Orleans a number of times - the sin condition of that city is obvious and yetit is acclaimed by the liberals. No question that this sin condition was the drawing card thatenticed demon power to come against the city. However, the deeper reason why NewOrleans was picked is because it was a double and set under God's Law (Genesis 41: 32)of the storm-flood that hit the Midwest in 1993, 12 years earlier, when the MississippiRiver flooded vast areas of Iowa, Missouri and Illinois. This was a double and set underGod's Law giving the enemy grounds to execute a major earthquake in the Midwestfollowed by the monster earthquake to destroy the Midwest and see the Great Lakes floodinto the Mississippi lastly wiping out New Orleans in the process.

YourSeptember and October newsletters were here, and I have been reading in them. HurricaneKatrina seems to have pretty well fulfilled what you prophesied on page 6 (9/18/04) ofthe September 27, 2004 newsletter. I have a hurricane-related question. Previously youwere talking about a super hurricane that would strike Corpus Christi in the same year asthe accidental nuclear attack. Now you are talking about New Orleans. Is this the samehurricane, and will it strike both of these cities, or what? Please clarify this for me."(Unquote)

Rep/y by Chuck-JOHTVEL: Actually it is two different Hurricanes - one Hurricane willcome in the month of September prior to the accidental nuclear attack which will hit NewOrleans and reach all the way to the Atlantic. The super Hurricane to hit Corpus Christi,Texas will probably come in the second year of judgment (projected to be 2010) prior tothe monster earthquake to level the Midwest in July. It is quite likely that two years willseparate the Hurricane of September (hitting New Orleans) from the "super" Hurricaneto hit Corpus Christi. I have not brought much prayer or focus to the "super" Hurricaneto hit Corpus Christi, Texas since the Lord first revealed it back in the 1980's.

I have been a firefighter for 12 years and haveexperienced many deaths and traffic accidents, but I have never had an experience likethe one I want to share with you. I hope you find peace and comfort in it. As soon as mycrew members and I arrived at the scene I walked over to where Zoe was, did a quickevaluation of her, and began chest compressions while my partner began to breathe forher. As I was doing compressions to try to revive her, God have me a vision. I have neverhad a vision before, especially at a busy accident scene where there is so much activity.But vision was so clear. The Father showed me a picture of Him holding her and theywere ascending. I remember His appearance was that stereo-typical image of Christ, butHe was holding here like a daddy holds his baby. Zoe was peaceful, comforted, andtrusting. At that moment I knew where she was, where she went. The Spirit also gave mea comforting feeling about Zoe's parents. All this took a fraction of a second. When wewere able to get Zoe to the ambulance, I handed her to the paramedics, then 1 drove us all

to the hospital. I was able to pray most of the time en route, but continued in the peace I

had been given concerning your precious baby. Later that night I called my wife, Kristin,

and told her about the accident, she asked me how I was. I told her I was fine, and she

remembers me telling her, "I know where they are." She asked, "What do you mean by

that? How can you know where they are, unless they are Chrisrians?" I assured her that

I did know they all went with the Lord. A couple of days later, we found out that your

famil y is Christian and were not surprised. I want you to know, also, that your family, at

the time of their deaths were being taken care of by several other Christians. They went

L.J. and Brenda F. From^Ven Orleans on October 30, 2005 ( Quote) "Dear Chuck andNancy, We did not receive your request for volunteers for the latest prayer operation orwe would have gladly volunteered. We just received "The G1ock is Ticking" yesterday 10-29-05, if there has been any other correspondence from you since August we did not

receive it. We are missing at least a month and a half of our mail and no hope of receivingit. We have had to go online to pay bills. In spite of the trials and tribulations of the lasttwo months the protection and provisions of the Lord was miraculous to say the least. TheTestimony of Katrina is that the Lord will keep His own! We left our camp at PortFourchon on August 27. We are three miles from the Gulf and with any size hurricanecoming there is a mandatory evacuation. By the time we arrived in New Orleans, thestorm track changed to pass directly over the city. The next day the hurricane increasedto a category 5. We packed and left. The still, small voice said "prepare for an extendedstay"; little did I know then that after two months we would still be "displaced". The Lordshowed me a few things concerning New Orleans and the two hurricanes in the Gulf. Icovet your opinion. Please feel free to comment, correct or rebuke as you see fit. W e seethe judgment on New Orleans as a "type and shadow" of the judgment to come on thewhole nation. During Rita, the second hurricane in four weeks, parts of the city wereflooded once again. Joseph told Pharaoh that the seven ears and the seven kine was onedream, one judgment. Because there were two hurricanes, two judgments on the city, thething is established by God and God will shortly bring it to pass. 2010, 5 years, relativeto 6,000 years of human history I think qualifies for "...shortly bring it to pass." Inaddition, several aspects of the city were purged. First was the church. Hirelings andbackslidden ministers who fleece the sheep for their extravagant lifestyles of milliondollar homes with Sl00,000 vehicles are out of business. The sheep are gone, they'vebeen evacuated. Likewise, the sheep that looked to a pastor as a god now have to turn toJesus or have nothing. Second was the city government, the civil service system. 15 years,20 years as a civil servant, these folks were part of the bureaucracy contributing nothingto the public good, people that were basically retired on the public till. These people havebeen or soon will be laid off, the city is broke, no tax base, no revenues corning in.Politics was next. The Federal government refuses to release monies to Louisiana or New

Page 13 The Staff and Sword Ministry - We Get Letters December 5, 2005

L.J. and Brenda F. On October 30 2005 (Quote continued Orleans because of the

corrupt politicians. Our bad physical policies are now revealed publicly and that's not all.The failure of the levees that caused the flooding was a result of the levees not being builtto code yet all the money was supposedly spent for the flood control projects.Investigations have begun and corruption could be revealed that goes back some 25 years.The. judicial system, the District Attorney's Office is out of money. December should seelayoffs and with the records in the basement of the courthouse ruined in the flood, fewtrials are scheduled and the court system is for all practical purposes closed down. This

was a cor rupt system with unbelievable plea-bargains and some cases some how nevercame to trial. Amazingly some of the criminals were never indicted. And the best of allis the Democratic Party. It seems that the parts of the city that didn't flood or had _justminimal damage, uptown, the CBD and West Bank were predominately Republican andthe rest of Orleans Parish were Democrats. Again, we believe that the purging, thejudgments on New Orleans is a "type and shadow" of the purging that will take placeduring the 7 year occupation of our nation. As for us, we had only superficial damage atthe Fourchon and lost only our refrigerator at the condo in New Orleans. We actually feelguilty when comparing our loss to those that lost everything. I could write Volumes on themercies of God in this continuing af-faire, I could send you pictures of destruction thatwould be hard to believe, yet none could compare to what is coming. The Lord has madethat quite clear. The church is in denial and will not receive the fact that we are alreadyin the judgment cycle. Nor will they accept the message of repentance and holiness. Butwe look forward to attending one ofthe Colville Fellowship Meetings one day. Until then,

we remain. L.J. and Brenda F" (Unquote)

Response by Cruek-JOH.NF_L_ There is no need for a "correction or a rebuke" when yousimply say it like it is. I've seen as many like comments about New Orleans from otherswho lived there or visited. There is no question that the sin condition is like a magnet andthat it draws demons like flies to dung - but again, as stated elsewhere, the enemy had apurpose behind picking New Orleans - sin made it an easy target. I appreciate your letterand comments since you event through the Hurricane KATRINA and know the situationfirst hand. God bless.

1' showed an 8.7 magnitude earthquake

in Indonesia killing over 1,000 people. On Sunday April 10, 2005, the island of Sumatra,Indonesia had another earthquake of 6.8 magnitude. The news hadn't reported anycasualties. A lot seemed to happen in the month of March especially the latter part. Therehas been a tremendous increase in the price of gas here and the U.S. also. In Toronto, gasprices went almost 1.00/litre (a litre is less than a gallon). In the Province of BritishColumbia gas price did hit 1.00/litre. In T.O. the average was approximately 95.0/litre.We definitely felt it. Also, we've seen a tremendous increase in food prices on most items.I can recall one week that I'd bought car rots for S 1.55 for a 5 lb bag and the followingweek the same 5 lbs of carrots was 52,55. I drink a lot of carrot juice and we do a lot ofjuicing with fresh fruits. Jesus has a lot to do with our healthy eating. So, definitely wehave seen some things happening. One of the things in reading the newsletter referringto the "WE GET LETTERS" section, It's quite upsetting and tears at our hearts whenyou're accused by some of those brethren? Or persons writing those letters. We just somuch appreciate JESUS CHRIST in you in the matter of how you respond to them. Wegive thanks and Praise to OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST for you all and continue to lift youboth up in prayer and this Ministry that JESUS CHRIST has established.

uote "Early this morning I had a couple ofJe and Ten V. OOnMMarch17 205 (Q ) " Ydreams that seemed to be important, and thought to share them with you. The first dreamwas something about a star in the heavens that fell. I remember it was being referred to

as the -eighth star", or I knew it as such. Then a little later, I thought I was awake, and

dreamt that Jeff was muttering in his sleep, half asleep, and half to me, about lightnings

and thunderin gs, about a lightning that was falling to strike the earth, or something to thataffect. After he left for work;I skimmed through the first twelve books of Revelation, andchapter 8 seemed to stand out to me in correlation to the dreams I had. It says' "And when

he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half and

hour. And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them wel •e given seven

trumpets. And the aria took the censor, and filled it with ./ire of ' the altar, and Cast it 1D

the earth: and there were s Dices, and thunderings s and lightenin s and an eai th isuke.

i also wondered if the angel mentioned above, that took the censor, filled it with fire ofthe altar, and cast it to earth, was a messenger, that messenger being JAI 1NEL...? Also,can you share anything else about the seal of the living, God, and its anointing concerningthe tiny star? What kind of calling is upon the lives of the sealed? I know that since Jeffand I have received the sealing, we have entered into a much deeper relationship withJESUS. but we also sense there is more_.. (of course the "more" is JESUS, alwaysJESUS)... but in greater detail, what does that mean in terms of"end times", and the "tinystar". and the "remnant"'? Would appreciate any Holy Spirit insights you receive or havereceived concerning these matters'. P.S..lust received the newsletter in the mail! Jeff hasto practically hide it from me when he comes home from work, so I won't read it whilewe are eating dinner? (He usually gets the mail on his way home from work.) Anyways,thanks for all the work put into it Haven't read all of it yet, but I did read the"Manifesting CHRIST" article about the 10 virgins, and it's just antastic. It was very

reassuring to me, the revelation about the 10 virgins, and what the oil in their lamps really

was..." (Unquote)

Response b y Chuck-JOHNEL: That is quite a bit to answer but let me try. Indeed, when

I was on the Mount of the Most High God JESUS gave me a censor and told me to dowhat the Father instructed me to do - which was to fill it with fire from between theCherubim as given in Ezekiel 10. The word "Angel" means "messenger" and it could bea rnan. In my case, t was there and did this. The interesting thing to one is that I can openlyacknowledge what God had me do on January 21, 2004 on the Mount of the Most HighGod fulfilling what is given in Ezekiel chapter 10 and get no notice from the church

whatsoever. Being "hidden" in open sight is unique_

Concerning the tiny star, those Sealed are immune to its power and effect which tells methat the tiny star is directed by a "destroyer" who would have no power over the Sealed.

The corning judgment Jesus has had nmc warn about dovetails into the "end times" as that

was clearly revealed in the vision of 1977 in Pittsburgh.

The "calling of the Sealed"? In 198, when JESUS sent me out to Seal His people, theHOLY SPIRIT gave me to understand that it was especially important for the Net ofPrayer to be sealed as we would be going into battle with the forces of the anti-Christ `InThe Spirit' (and we did) and by that Godly anointing we could and did prevail over thebcastman of anti-Christ both in 1982 and again in 1987 (battles in the GAP In TheSpirit.')

This is a very deep subject and it would be nice if sometime we might be able to sit downand talk about what is known by the Spirit of God to get it all out into the open. But herethe space is limited and the leading is to move on. God bless.

Sat down and read it thru. Really interesting! That really brings Bible Prophecy right upto date. That big storm from California is now in Ohio. My, my, my, floods in zero temps.It makes one wonder what to do to protect yourself and loved ones. The ice stone reallydevastated Central Kansas 10-14 days ago. The news just indicated they still had a fewhomes without electricity as of today. I shudder when thinking about the big disasterscoming to this country after watching the Indonesian problems. Do you have any adviceto get ready for these disasters? I found it is difficult to talk to most people about what iscoming. They quickly dub you as an extremist or far out. Consequently, as you wouldknow, it is easier not to talk to them. The increase in gas prices, (auto and heating) has

really cramped a lot of people. Many farmers and businesses are quitting in this area. Lotsof farms for sale. I have been thru that and certainly sympathize with those folks. Manyof those farms have been with those families for near 100 years. Many 3 and 411'

If I can ever be of help or support, please call on me."

Chuck-JOHNEL's Reply : Nancy-TONI's articles have been the `preparation advice" -my task is to keep the brethren Current on what is developing and what it means and howmuch time is left to get prepared (physically, spiritually and emotionally). The heart ofpreparation is learning to TRUST on/in JESUS with your life and to have no fear overwhat is coming. It is physically impossible to be prepared for all that is coming - so ourfocus must be on (1) Doing what we can and (2) Trusting God the help us get through.

Gfrtrck-JOHNEL's Re l (continued) People reject the warnings because of unbelief and

because they do not want to face the fact that they are about to face the judgment of God.

It is this kind of attitude, "If , 1 ignore it, it will go away. Then the more serious it gets the

louder they shout to themselves or others, "Go ati+gay, l don 't wait to know this! " You are

looking at the walking dead, dead to God and soon to be dead. They have frittered away

all the grace and mercy that God has extended to them through the prayers of the saints

that prayed for mercy and delays in judgment. They are about to face the music as an old

expression goes.

Since Scotty wrote this letter in January, 2005 the price of gasoline zoomed skyward andwhile its come down some, it is still high ($2.30 a gallon on average now) so the farmersand truckers have to be hurting. All this is going to catch up to the nation when foodsuddenly disappears from the shelves - for the vast majority of the people have no idea

what farmers and ranchers are going through.

it?" (Unquote)

Response by Chuck-JOHN

EL: No. When I was in my first year of community college

in Chicago in 1960 1 began to have a recurrent dream and at times a vision although theconcept of a vision was alien to me. In this recurring dream vision I saw a multitude of

o le, civilians and soldiers, walking on a highway - they were all dead, the victims ofpeople,a war. I 'knew" that America would be drawn into this war and that we would lose it andsuffer many dead in the fighting. I also knew (not knowing how I knew this) that I was

not suppose to take part of this war. This brought me to push tip my draft (the draft was

working at that time) to the ends of getting in and out of the military BEFORE this warhappened. My mother did not understand this reason for quitting college and asked mewhat war 1 was talking about. I didn't know - not where or when but only that I was not

to take part in it - even that made no sense since I had a soldier's heart and discipline and

that the idea of war was not frightening to me in the least. Two years later. 1962, 1 washonorably discharged from the E.J.S. Army having served my two years overseas in WestGermany facing the Soviet forces which were a constant threat at that time.

In 1963 President Kennedy was assassinated and Vice-President L. B. Johnson took his

place. When L. B. Johnson ran for the office of President in 1964 1 "knew" (again notknowing how I knew) that this man would lead America into that disastrous war, one Wewould lose. I campaigned with all my strength against L. R. Johnson but he won b

y a

landslide. L .B. J. promised NOT to send American troops to fight in Vietnam but I knew

Sharon on no date - Res onse by Chuck-JOHNEL (continue : he was lying. Notlong after that L .B .J. began sending more and more American forces into Vietnam.When L. B. Johnson won the election I remember writing a little poem. to the effect:"American blood has flown in trickles in Vietnani, now it will flood in rivers of blood...It would and it did.

During the fighting over the next ten years I wanted any number of times to quit my joband re-join the Army and to volunteer to fight. Watching the death tolls rise and theineffectual political leadership that got us into this war and who would not fight to winit about drove me nuts. On March 20, 19711 was born-again by the Spirit of God and metJESUS face to face In The Spirit' who told me that I was His prophet, that He had sentme into this world.

In 1989 we met a prophet of Jesus who had fought in Vietnam with a Ranger force - hewas hard as nails, so tough he was abrasive and I recognized that the fighting and killinghad scared his soul to where he could barely love or feel any compassion. I realized thenwhy JESUS had kept me out of that war.

In 1981 JESUS revealed a demon army marching into this world that would empower andtrigger Nuclear World War III in 1982. As I experienced in the political campaigns in1964 the church and political leaders at every level ignored the warnings and call toprayer to stop World War 111. But then JESUS who had equipped me and two otherprophets sent us into "the Spirit' with the Net of Prayer and an army of warring Angelsof God to battle and defeat this massive demon army - thus Nuclear World War Ill wasbroken and prevented by January of 1982.

There is not much to say about my brother Bruce who was a year younger than me. Abouttwo years before his death JESUS told me that I would not see Bruce again in this worldbut I would see him when I return home to Jesus in I-leaven. Two years later Bruce wasdead, a victim of what most family members believed to be murder. It was not provable.
