God has instituted limits on mankind. One of these is the maximum time that you can live on earth.

“And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.” (Genesis 6:3)

Moses had the opportunity to live until he was 120 years old. The Bible says he was not sick, his eyesight was good, and he was strong and healthy. When his time on earth came to end, he simply walked up a mountain to meet with Jesus.

"So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the LORD.

And he buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, over against Bethpeor: but no man knoweth of his sepulchre unto this day.

And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated." (Deuteronomy 34:5-7)

Moses’ life can be divided up into three parts:

• The first forty years were spent as a prince of Egypt.

• The second forty years were spent as a shepherd in the desert.

• The final forty years were spent as God’s anointed ruler of the Israelites.

Most people spend their first lifecycle growing up, getting married, and raising a family. A lot of people do not finish their second lifecycle due to a poor diet, smoking, drinking, drugs, etc. Their bodies wear out, and by the time they are in their 70’s, they are tired, going in and out of the hospital and taking all kinds of medication. By the time their second lifecycle is done, they are already in heaven or in hell.

Certain people reach their third lifecycle because they have taken care of their bodies, walked with Jesus, and are able to keep on ministering. What category are you in?

OUR MINISTRY

Our ministry is based in the Sacramento area of California and consists of two different operations. The first is the local church called Resurrection Life of Jesus Church. The second is our mission organization, European-American Evangelistic Crusades, Inc.

As a pastor and president I have led our work since 1969. Prior to this I was a member of a Southern Baptist Church in Salt Lake City.

I have experienced the mighty move of God known as “The Jesus People,” when hundreds of thousands of hippies were saved and baptized in the Holy Spirit and fanned out over the world to share Jesus. The Calvary Chapel denomination was born from this outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

I have experienced the mighty power of God in Kathryn Kuhlman meetings. I have worked in three Billy Graham crusades as a counselor. I also attended numerous conventions of the Full Gospel Business Men’s Fellowship under the leadership of Demos Shakarian, whom I had the pleasure of meeting. I had the privilege of attending a three day seminar with David Wilkerson and receiving personal ministry from him.

I have lived through the Vietnam War, two Gulf Wars, and the war in Afghanistan. I have been attacked by people from the occult such as witches, Satanists and Freemasons. I have been stalked by the FBI, CIA, Swedish security police (SAPO), and the Israeli Mossad.

God had used me to start two churches, both of which were destroyed by the powers of Satan. The third, Resurrection Life of Jesus Church, has lost its facilities on three separate occasions to infighting. But I am still standing and will continue to stand until God takes me home.

The Holy Spirit instructed me to begin accumulating a library in the 1970’s about the coming World Government. This was long before the Internet was known. I have a large number of filing cabinets filled with information from this time until 1990.

The Lord told me to visit used bookstores and purchase books on secular and Christian history, along with biographies of hundreds of prominent Christian leaders and laypeople.

A friend of the ministry inherited a large sum of money a few years ago and donated a portion with the instruction to upgrade our webcasting equipment. We renovated the lighting system and started the process of replacing the existing camera system. Due to lack of time and manpower, we have expensive cameras simply sitting in boxes and there seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel. We are hopelessly bogged down and the reason is, we do not have the manpower to further the ministry.

CAN YOU HELP?

What are you doing with your life? What life cycle are you in? Are you living just for yourself and your family? Do you have talents that can be used in the Kingdom of God?

What are you going to say when your time on earth comes to an end and you stand before Jesus in heaven? All the things that you did for yourself will be left behind. How many souls have you won for Jesus? How many demons were cast out because of you? How many people have been healed because of your prayers?

This ministry is a hardcore combat unit in the Army of God. We don’t peddle cotton candy that tastes good but has no nutritional value. We are looking for a few good men and women who are willing to be trained to fight the Devil. We are looking for good men and women to serve alongside us. Now is the time to enlist and fight!  There will be plenty of time in heaven to rest. Please contact us if you are interested.
