Over 1500 Links!

Hello!

On your mark. Ready. Set. Read!

Two incredible web pages were made this week! First, would you like to see how God unveiled His plan for salvation before Jesus walked the Earth? His entire plan for salvation was revealed, in a hidden code, in the 5th chapter of Genesis. Check it out here: http://www.jcsm.org/biblelessons/Hidden.htm.

The next, great web site that was created is called "The Bible's Fulfilled, Messianic Prophecies". I've compiled 35 Old Testament prophecies that were fulfilled by Jesus Christ! To see them in extreme color, go this way: http://www.jcsm.org/biblelessons/FMP.htm.

The main web site received 131 hits on Thursday! This is an all-time record. Praise the Lord. Part of the reason we received so many hits is because we advertized in a local newspaper called The San Diego Reader.

This week, we're advertizing in the Reader and the Union-Tribune (the Union will be sent over 1 million times over the course of the three day ad). Let's pray that the web site reaches thousand of lost and discouraged people. If you have a local newspaper and want to advertize for JCSM (www.jcsm.org), please do! Email me if you want to give me details or need help paying for it. Time is short and we have to spread the good news as far as we can!

Please pray we accumulate 100,000 email addresses and 1,000,000 hits on the main page! These are big numbers, but God is a BIG God! He has already answered the smaller prayers I've prayed, so it's time to pray BIGGER!

If you need some Christian Music videos, look no further. There is a web site that plays them all day and night. You can find "Christian MTV" here: http://www.tvulive.com.

Did you see the cover of last week's Newsweek magazine? It read, "Jesus Rocks!" They did a cover story about the influence of Christian media (music, videos/movies, books, etc.). Apparently, Christian music holds 4.8% of the music industry. Maybe it will catch up with country music's 10%. Try and find a copy of the magazine. It features Audio Adrenaline, Newsboys, Pillar and some other interesting statistics and stuff.

I pray you are having an exciting time as you grow spiritually! God loves you more than you know! When you realize it, you'll be changed in an awesome way. I hope you are lifted up as you walk with God.

If you're a Skillet fan, listen up! They will be playing two, free shows in Southern California. Here are the details: July 21 - Skillet is performing at Calvary Chapel Bible College in Murrietta! 7pm - Free! 909-699-9207. July 22 - Skillet performs in Temecula at Calvary Chapel! 7pm - Free! 909-699-9207.

If you live in San Diego's North County, you should visit Calvary Chapel Oceanside this Friday. How's Kelly is playing a free concert from 7-9pm! Email me for details.

Have you ever heard of Half.com? Well, www.half.com is a place where you can buy used books! I have bought several from people on this site (it's eBay's sister site) and I've been very happy. I found The Magog Invasion, by Chuck Missler, which is out of stock and out of print! There is actually one more copy of this awesome book about the upcoming attack on Israel from the North (Russia). It's being sold for only $5 and it's in very good condition.

I almost forgot to mention my 40 day fast! Haha. It's going very well. Today is my 29th day. Thank you for your prayers and encouragement. I'm on the "homestretch", but please keep praying for me. I'm growing a lot, but there's still a long way to go before I know God like I need to know Him. I'll post more of my fasting journal next week.

Don't worry. I'm not starving or crying my eyes out. God is giving me incredible, spiritual energy. I haven't touched any food (I smelled some, though). I'm sticking to small amounts of juices and my 30/30/30 (30 minutes in prayer, worship and Bible reading). It's a winning combination! PTL.

Please pray for my wife's job situation. She is working at a Christian daycare and they are considering closing it. Let's pray it stays open or God provides a better job for her (there's no doubt that one of those two things will happen), however, she was getting attached to the kids at this daycare.

Are you receiving about twelve pages with this message? If this message is truncated, and perhaps you're only receiving half of it, you can always find these devotions on our web site! Simply go here: http://devos.jcsm.org.

I will show wonders in heaven above And signs in the earth beneath: Blood and fire and vapor of smoke.

For many will come in My name, saying, I am the Christ, and will deceive many. And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.

Thank you for being the ONLY God who knows the future. Not even Satan, the demons or the fallen angels know the future like You do! Praise You for being more awesome than all. Thank you for being stronger than all. Thank you for protecting us with your power and even giving it to us! Remind us that You are inside of us, making us strong. Thank you for wanting us to be victorious! Thank you for overcoming the world and wanting us to do the same. Remind us that You are faithful. Thank you for being closer than a brother. To You be all the glory, honor and praise, forever and ever! In Jesus' name, Amen."

The Bible Trivia QuestionCan Satan create life?

(Email me your answer!)

Last Week's Bible Trivia AnswerAdam was 930 years old when he died. See Genesis 5:5.

An Excerpt from "The Revised and Expanded Answers Book" by Ken Ham, Jonathan Sarfati and Carl Wieland

A Water Vapor Canopy?

Dr. Joseph Dillow did much research into the idea of a blanket of water vapor surrounding the earth before the flood. In a modification of the canopy theory, Dr. Larry Vardiman suggested that much of the "water above" could have been stored in small ice particles distributed in equatorial rings around the earth similar to those around Venus.

The Genesis 7:11 reference to the windows of heaven being opened has been interpreted as the collapse of such a water vapor canopy, which somehow became unstable and fell as rain. Volcanic eruptions associated with the breaking up of the fountains of the great deep could have thrown dust into the water vapor canopy, causing the water vapor to nucleate on the dust particles and make rain.

Dillow, Vardiman, and others have suggested that the vapor canopy caused a greenhouse effect before the flood with a pleasant subtropical-to-temperate climate all around the globe, even at the poles where today there is ice. This would have caused the growth of lush vegetation on the land all around the globe. The discovery of coal seams in Antarctica containing vegetation that is not now found growing at the poles, but which obviously grew under warmer conditions, was taken as support for these ideas.

A vapor canopy would also affect the global wind systems. Also, the mountains were almost certainly not as high before the flood as they are today. In today's world, the major winds and high mountain ranges are a very important part of the water cycle that brings rain to the continents. Before the flood, however, these factors would have caused the weather systems to be different.

Vardiman recognized a major difficulty with the canopy theory. The best canopy model still gives an intolerably high temperature at the surface of the earth.

Rush and Vardiman have attempted a solution, but found that they had to drastically reduce the amount of water vapor in the canopy from a rain equivalent of 40 feet (12 m) to only 20 inches (0.5 m). Further modeling suggested that a maximum of 2 m (6.5 feet) of water could be held in such a canopy, even if all relevant factors were adjusted to the best possible values to maximize the amount of water stored. Such a reduced canopy would not significantly contribute to the 40 days and nights of rain at the beginning of the flood.

Many creation scientists are now either abandoning the water vapor canopy model or no longer see any need for such a concept, particularly if other reasonable mechanisms could have supplied the rain. In the catastrophic plate tectonics model for the flood, volcanic activity associated with the breaking up of the pre-flood ocean floor would have created a linear geyser (like a wall) of superheated steam from the ocean, causing intense global rain.

Nevertheless, whatever the source or mechanism, the scriptural statement above the windows of heaven opening is an apt description of global torrential rain.

A vapor canopy holding more than 7 feet (2 m) of rain would cause the earth's surface to be intolerably hot, so a vapor canopy could not have been a significant source of the flood waters.
