CERTAIN CHANGES ARE COMING OUR WAY. ARE YOU READY, ARE YOU PREPARED? PLEASE DO NOT STAY STUCK IN DENIAL! Our time truly is limited. Sure, people have been saying that they are in the “end times” for ages now, saying that “Jesus is coming soon”. Seriously these Jesus freaks keep on saying the same thing and nothing ever really happens. In fact, it is such an old “war cry” that you have tuned it out which in turn has hardened your heart to the warnings. Please just take a quick glance at the news headlines and put the pieces together. There is no denying the signs, the “labor pains” and symptoms any longer. And labor pains progress, they do not diminish.
Are you prepared? Are you protected? If you are scoffing at the warnings, guess what? You are fulfilling prophecy and you are only hurting yourself and any of those who may be listening to you. Check it out, I’m not putting you on: 2 Peter 3:3, 4 and also in Jude 1:18,19 both are in the New Testament. Get saved; you are going to need His protection. More importantly, you will definitely need your salvation for all of eternity. I don’t know you, but I certainly care about you and your eternity. This is not a gimmick; the only thing I gain from you trusting God is another brother or sister in the Lord.
The ULTIMATE Preparation Right Here: God, Please remove any deception that I may have listened to, believed or embraced that is hindering me from knowing the truth. Because I am not perfect, I am a sinner that needs forgiveness and I ask You to forgive me. I believe You are Savior and Lord Who shed Your Holy, Sinless Blood and died for my sins to be forgiven, and rose from the dead; You live forever. I want to turn away from (repent) my sins. I invite You, Jesus Christ of Nazareth, God the Messiah to come into my heart and life as Savior and Lord. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and personal Savior. In the all powerful Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I pray. Amen.

Green silken scarves, pink and golden flowers, plumes of silken rainbows, waterfalls of shimmering white and pink, fluttering ribbons, gleaming, golden sashes . . . all of this and more blossomed across the stage here in Portland, Oregon for the internationally acclaimed show Shen Yun: a celebration of the past 5000 years of Chinese history.
Framed in a series of mini-ballets, the show featured Chinese dancers who moved as fluidly as water. To say the least, this writer was spellbound.
But what intrigued me more than anything were the many similarities I kept glimpsing, amongst the folds of fabric and twirling of dancers, of the Hebrew Biblical culture.
One of the opening scenes featured exactly 7 drums, towering drums fanned across the stage -- as if I were looking at a perfect Jewish Menorah. Beyond that, a Chinese temple stood with exactly 12 pillars, 6 on one side, 6 on the other -- and I instantly thought of the 12 Tribes of Israel.
Later, in another scene, women dressed in various silks of oranges, blues and yellows, with elegant, glittering head coverings, and silken wings stretching from beneath their upraised arms, began to interweave with graceful fluidity. At first, there were exactly 12 women -- again I was struck by the 12 Tribes of Israel.
But then, almost before my unblinking eyes, the interweaving dancers were joined by two others, and now 12 had blossomed into 14 -- the number for Passover.
Right before intermission, a re-enactment of an ancient Chinese myth told the story of a Red Dragon being slain! The Red Dragon in the Bible represents Satan, and of course that Red Dragon is eventually slain by the end of the Book of Revelation! It was as if one scene after another were coming straight from the Bible!
Toward the end of the second half, the number 12 continued being repeated: 12 women bearing 12 lotus flowers. Then, 12 yellow lanterns carried by aqua-blue dressed dancers.
Because 2017 is the next Jewish Jubilee year and 17 was when Christ was resurrected, I watched in fascination as exactly 17 green, gold and pink dressed women spun across the stage. Diamond-like head dresses, fixed with large yellow roses, shouted out victory!
In text, from an ancient Chinese poem, read the words across the backlit stage:
“Yet all hope is not lost. The Creator Has Not Forgotten Mankind.”
And, then, a little later, more text said:
“Only by dissolving sins is it possible to return to paradise.”
Yeah and amein I wanted to shout out across the hushed theater!
As I began to study Ancient Chinese culture in preparation for watching this show, I came upon an amazing discovery. Chinese culture extends back to roughly 2500 BC. But Buddhism, Daoism and Confucianism only came into existence around 6-5 BC. So, the question was, what did the Chinese people believe in for the 2500 years between 2500 BC and just before the 1st century AD?
The answer stunned me.
For the first 2500 years of China’s history, the people worshipped a singular, supreme God named Shang Di. Shang Di literally means “The Most High God -- The King That Lives Above.” This God possessed the same qualities and attributes as the Hebrew God known as Yahweh!
Sima Quian, China’s greatest historian, talks about Huang Di, the Yellow emperor who reigned from 2500 BC to 2400 BC. Huang Di built an ancient altar to Shang Di.
In a song found in the classic collected statutes of the Ming Dynasty, the following text reads: “Of old in the beginning, there was the great chaos, without form and dark. The 5 planets had not begun to revolve, nor the 2 lights to shine. In the midst of it there existed neither form nor sound.”
This passage sounds almost verbatim to the opening verses of Genesis chapter 1!
The classic Chinese song continues: “You, O Spiritual Sovereign, came forth in Your sovereignty, and first did separate the impure from the pure. You made heaven; You made earth: you made man. All things became alive with reproducing power.”
That order of Creation is the EXACT order given in the Creation Account of Genesis. Yahweh first made the heavens, then the earth, then mankind.
And so, with wonder borne from deepest reality, I have come to realize that long before Buddhism or any other form of religion existed in China, they too once knew of the same Hebrew God I serve -- Yahweh -- the maker of the Heavens and Earth!
