Condition Black-A rose is a rose and if it is a rose it is a rose forever. And if Jesus rose from the dead then there are things which he does which is part of the story of life. And one is to find a way to carry emotion to those on earth. So let us say that Condition Black is the lay of the lie. And the lay of the lie is the condition of things.

The lay of the lie is the condition of the heart. It is also the status of things. When they are black it isn’t meant to speak of darkness in the normal sense but of life. For darkness is the key to life. It is dark in the tomb and it is dark in the grave. And if it is dark then there is no way out.

Now for men that isn’t good but for evil it is. For evil isn’t just of things gone bad but of bad things. And if you wish to be part of the story of life you will find a way to carry things to those who carry the story. And so it is with condition black.

The black condition of this is the story of life which went out on a limb. For black is the rapture status but not the status of those who are alive. It is the status of those who are out and those who are in the grave.

So lets say that the true status of those who are to make an appearance are not of the dead but of the living. And so God had to have a rapture first of the dead in Christ and next of the living. But we made an assumption that God would raise up men in an instant and that would be the ‘twinkling of an eye”. It does happen that fast for the person but only when it is their number being called.

Now that sounds so earthlike that waiting for your number might be considered hell. But if you are of men you don’t have to worry. You don’t get called by 666 or 7 66 or something like that. You get called all the way up to 666 and then some of those have to take off and be reassigned a new number. Of course if you are waiting and you have number 666 you can imagine there is some trepidation when you walk into court. Of course God does have a sense of humor and usually assigns those to the people with a sense. Otherwise they walk in ready to cast themselves down to God and wait for life to start all over and again.

Now Condition black is the essence of the war we are in. It is the black state of war and it is the battle which is going on and on and on. Even in Heaven a long war is a bad one. For God likes the war to be quick and clean. In this case the J factor got in the way. And that isn’t Jews or Jesus but me. Joel. I became a factor because I wanted to help. And so it became a time consuming problem for those in Heaven. They had to learn to deal with people and I had to learn to deal with Heaven. And so it is a problem because I struggle with life and that means I do wonder if I’m making a mess. So it is Gods desire that I be limited to contact so that I don’t get hurt by all those who are asking “When do we get to ‘deal” or “meet” or “Help” or other four letter words which are found beyond the gates of Pearl or Adamantium. And that latter is probably adamantine which refers to a hard substance which is unlikely to change very soon into putty.

So I have to put up with this story and that means they have to put up with me and that means I have to put up with them and so on. So I am asking “Why do the dead get to go to the moon” and it seems I have to deal with the ashes to ashes and dust to dust.

So if Heaven has a sense of humor I must find it. I’ve been raised in the church all my life beleiving humor, like Sex, like marriage, like mature people were up there waiting for me in Heaven. But Jesus wore out that one long ago so I have to be here on earth fighting a black and very moody creature called evil while Heaven gets to wait in lines. Calling # 1 please.

Psalms 7:2 Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending [it] in pieces, while [there is] none to deliver.

What if we were in a battle with a green skinned monster. He took the moon and made it into cheese and the only person in their right mind was eating watermelon. Now of course if I were in my right mind, and I hope I am, then I am in the process of finishing watermelon.

 But since I am hungry then the fact of the matter is that the watermelon is now history. And I am writing this on the go.

So since you are wondering if I have gone off the deep end let me state that I am not off and I am not as hungry as I was. I am just in thought and wondering what the Lord is up to.

Now I know I’ve been in the know for the past few years. That means I’ve been part of this war and it is real. It is a war unlike one you are fighting. To put it into perspective you are fighting a personal battle. I am fighting a war with God as my friend, the enemy is sin and vast space. I am in contact with God but at present He really is on His way back.

Now you may think “Where did God go if He left earth?” To put it into perspective we are men. God is God. He made us to be part of the vast universe. And it is filled with mighty and wondrous works of God. Yet in the mean and in the time there is earth. And we were the brat of the world system. We thought we were wise but we were foolish. We thought we were and are the center of the universe. But if you read scripture the earth took the servant of God and sent them home without supper. He sent a friend and they beat him. He said “I’ll send my son” and he did and they killed him. That doesn’t sound like the soul of the universe.

But if we are wise we will see that we are on the right path if we know that Jesus died for us. If not then the soul of the universe is not earth but Heaven. And that means we who are alive are about to remain here until God decides who is worth saving. For if there isn’t one of us who turns to the Lord with all our heart then God will just take those who are worth something in value.

So lets put it out for those who are science oriented. You want proof that God is real? Try this. Hold your hand over a flame and try to be burned. Feel the pain of it and then tell me that hell can’t be real. Imagine this: you are on the path to flame because you are claiming God isn’t about to demolish this old earth so he can build a highway? Try to find a knowledge man and ask how many scriptures speak of the end of the earth? You’ll find they may try to detain you to ask why but you’ll see Douglas Adams was right on.

The Universe is on the way to being paved and what is there is going into the mix. So if you are dust then watch out because they don’t want it on them. So lets get this story finished because I’m hungry for pizza.

God is returning for us who are alive. He already had to sanctify the dead who wanted out of the grave. They’ve already been raptured up. We are all that are left and sin is telling us “Don’t move because they’ll pay a fortune for this section of space.”

Right. I also know that Bill Cosby is going to meet Noah tonight for dinner. Guess what. That was a joke. Noah is in Heaven waiting for Earth to move so sin can be readied for the pit of fire. Everyone has ideas and Noah got the one which won the bet. He said “Lets put him in the heart and see if he likes it.

And just like that the story of the Lord is about to change all things. For I have a good idea where that place is. I have an idea of things which someday, if I get the time, I’ll work on. Its the story of Noah as written by God in the earth.

And if that day comes soon it will be by Gods grace. I’m praying for sin to move so God can carry freedom to the rest of the sector. Well, that is if we on earth will stop believing in chocolate as being one of the worlds yet to come.

Condition Black-A sign of things happening in the spirit realm on earth. The world is under attack from forces within the sphere. The sphere is the light universe. We are in the last stages of the war. The battle is still going strong and it is being won. God is about to release the next Alert. When that happens I will be the first to let you know.
