Oseas actually joined on December last year but officially introduced by Personal Message yesterday. Oseas is from south of Brazil. Anyways here is Oseas official introduction.
Hello, I am Oseas, I’m new here. I’m a Christian for decades, I live in the south of Brazil, near Argentina. English is not my native language, but I will try to do the best I can to be understood.
I did find this Christian site and would like to share with the brothers in Christ on my faith in the LORD JESUS Christ and my strong belief in the Word of God.
I am focused in Philippians 3:v.20-21(combined with Luke 20:v.35-36)
20 - For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:
21 - Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.
In Christ Jesus

Greetings to all
Thank you, Les Brewer for your help
Knowing that the days are being shortened, lately I have been very concerned with the Lord's Church, the body of Christ, and I ask myself: How is it that God's people around the world are living in these dangerous days? The Word of God - the Word is God - warned this last generation of His peoples, saying:
2 Timothy 3:v.1 3:v.1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
1 Timothy 4:v.1-2 1- Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 2 - Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
Honestly, it is hard to walk within those meanders of great darkness, this is as if the sun did not shine and the moon did not give its light consequently. Matthew 24:v.1-8
1 Jesus and His disciples went out from the temple, and his disciples showed to Him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. (NOTE: - This prophecy fulfilled literally in the year 70AD. It was a severe punishment. Hundreds of thousands from Israel were killed in the invasion of the Romans, those who fled and escaped were scattered themselves, and were persecuted in the four corners of the earth, from the year 70 to the year 1948, they were severely punished and left without nation for 1,878 years).
3 And as JESUS sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? what shall be the sign of thy coming? and of the END of the world?
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ(John 5:v.43-47); and shall deceive many.
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom (will be G-7, and EU, and UNO, among others Entities, be DISSOLVED?): and there shall be famines, and pestilences (this is fulfilling LITERALLY in the current time), and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
May our Lord GOD bless us, and keep us, and give us His protection Amen

When I was born my parents were believers, I have been a believer since my mother's womb, my parents were true believers in Christ Jesus, both had wonderful gifts given by God to my father and mother, but all my dad's family were devout Catholics (this was before year 1.936) , but my father preached the Gospel of Jesus to all of them, and most of them converted to Jesus through my father's evangelistic work, and they built a temple, and were converted forever, they died in Christ, and now they await the resurrection determined for this current time, as well as the return of JESUS-1 Thessalonians 4:v.15-17. Hallelujah.
My father was born on October 28, 1893, my mother on February 4, 1900, both were born in the city of Jacareí, in a region in the interior of the State of São Paulo. At that time the official religion of Brazil was Catholicism, in fact since its discovery in 1500 by the navigators of the King of Portugal, so the whole family of my parents, my grandparents, my ancestors, were traditionally Catholics.
In 1906 Missionary Anne Andrews arrived in São Paulo and then moved to the city of Jacareí where were born my parents, by the way, it was the first city to receive the Gospel through Missionary Anne Andrews and her husband Dr. Graham who, in October 1906, responded to the appeal made to believers in Toronto, Canada, to evangelize Brazil. At the time, there was no evangelical work in the city of Jacareí where my parents were born, and the Roman Catholic Church sovereignly dominated the people, fiercely opposing evangelicals. But the Missionary Anne Andrews began distributing literatures and gospels, visiting the sick and working as a midwife. She made herself known to some, sowing the seed of the Gospel into the minds and hearts of all she knew. It was at this time that my parents came to know the Gospel of JESUS through Missionary Anne Andrews (both still single-my parents were married in 1928. I was born on December 19, 1936).
In 1911, there was a merger of the Regions Beyond Missionary Union, and the South American Evangelical Mission, and was born the South American Evangelization Union, and in 1913, the Help for Brazil Mission which had been founded by the widow of the first missionary with a project permanent in Brazil, Dr. Robert R. Kalley, joined the new Mission, which played a prominent role in evangelization, absorbing active workers and sending many others, such as: Archibald and Bonina Tipple, James and Daisy Fanstone, Josias and Rettie Wilding, Arthur W. Archibald and Mildred Anna, Oliver and Dorothy Thomson, W. S. Forsyth, Tom and Rénne Macintyre, Henry and Betty Bacon, John and Ann Barnett, among others.
All of them now await the resurrection and the reward for the work they have done for the enhancement of the kingdom of God. Isn't it wonderful?
We the believers know that our Redeemer lives, as Job also said, still in great suffering for what the Devil had done to him, under my GOD's permission.
Job 19:v.21 to 27
21 Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O ye my friends; for the hand of GOD hath touched me.
22 Why do ye persecute me as GOD, ...?
23 Oh that my words were now written! oh that they were printed in a book!
24 That they were graven with an iron pen and lead in the rock for ever!
25 For I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter Day upon the earth: (This Day arrived, that is the seventh and last Day, or seventh and last millennium - JOHN 11:v.24)
26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see GOD: - Hallelujah! -
27 Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.
Revelation 11:v.15 to 18
15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms OF THIS WORLD are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,
17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.
18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be Judged, and that thou should give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and should destroy them which destroy the earth
GOD BLESS HIS PEOPLE NOW AND FOREVER Amen
