The Time Has Come When We Need To Start End-Time Preparation For A Coming Economic Depression
The ultimate and
future goal of ArkHaven is to form "a Christian community of
intentional neighbors" to prepare a self sufficient farm on a "green
island of survival" for a coming financial depression indicated by
world economic trends, and prophetic voices, such as David Wilkerson
and others.

But realize this, that in
the last days
The prudent see
danger and take refuge,
As fish are caught
in a cruel net, as birds are taken in a snare, so men are trapped by
evil times that fall unexpectedly on them. ---Ecclesiastes 9:12
When the foundations
are being destroyed, what can the righteous do. ---Psalms 11:3
Go here to listen to this recording of Kenneth Uptegrove being interviewed by Frank Whalen on The Frankly Speaking Show. The subject was Ken's popular article, The Mother Of All Conspiracies. Several of Ken's other talk shows are also listed here.
I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet.
But they said, We will not hearken. Jeremiah 3:17
This frank-but-friendly discussion of diverse viewpoints is something you are not apt to hear at church, or any place else.
The subject here is eschatology, which is the study of end-time events, as illustrated by the book of Revelation.
I don't want to offend you, but do you know what a Futurist or Preterist is? If you don't know, you are probably a Futurist, and you really need to know what a preterist is. Just trust me on this for a minute, and read this shocking statement:
Preterists call us "Futurists" (Premillennialists) because we believe Jesus will return to Earth at the end of the 7 years of tribulation and before the 1000 years of peace begins. However, Preterists believe the Antichrist and the Second Coming happened almost 2000 years ago (way back in 70 AD), and (again) we Premillennialists believe the antichrist (and the Second Coming) will come in the not so distant future.
What Was the Eschatology Behind
Eschatology is the study of end time events (in case you didn't know (-:) My prophetic watchman ministry compels me to look deep into the history, theology, and eschatology of ministries. Reason being, when a move of God begins, some of the doctrine will linger in the background until the excitement settles down a bit. The movement will initially manifest itself in such wonderful things as a huge number of people getting saved, and/or a huge number of people are getting miraculous healings, and even the dead are being raised. This has been going on for some time in nations such as China where the Christians are under terrible persecution, but it has been a long time since this has happened in America. When the newness and excitement settles down some, then the teachers and preachers can come on stage with the evangelists who were in the forefront of the movement. I remember this so well from the 60's and 70's during the beginnings of the Charismatic Movement. With great exuberance I soaked up the theology of the movement because I hardly even knew there was such a thing as the Holy Spirit. Ever sense then I have studied church history and all related subjects extensively, and am now better prepared to understand the doctrine behind movements before they even start. Here is the major point I hope to make in this watchman letter The thing I am on guard the most about is the theology and eschatology behind any new move of God. In any doctrinal group a hefty portion of their theology revolves around, and radiates from, their eschatology. So a major portion of their theology will only be as sound, or as erroneous as their eschatology. Let us not be naive and assume that any new move of God is going to be grounded in your or my end-time teaching. Ignorance is an unguarded door for the enemy to come through unawares. Now I am asking, what is the eschatology of the current move of God? Is it even one you have ever heard of before? I have found that most Christians have never heard the word "Preterist" before, yet we are surrounded by them. They may be in your denomination and your church, and you really do need to know what they teach. The end-time events include the coming of the antichrist, the 7 year tribulation, the Second Coming, and Christ ruling during the 1000 years of peace...if you are a Premillennialist. But if you are a Preterist or Historist you don't believe in any of these prophesied events. Here are some doctrinal groups you need to defend yourself from:
This is a politically correct time in America. We don’t want to offend someone whose beliefs may differ from ours. This often weakens preaching from the pulpits and tends to motivate ministers to emphasize only the positive. They tend to be overly optimistic about the future, even when warnings of future judgment are clear from prophetic scriptures. Ministers often appear to be “dueling prophets”—one warning of the trouble to come and another rejecting the warning and predicting great prosperity in spite of man’s wickedness. Despite self-inspired, positive prophecies, the wrath of God’s judgment will eventually be poured out on Gentile nations. Perry Stone |

---DOMINIONISM--- The Trojan Horse In The Charismatic Movement Some of our most popular Charismatic/Pentecostal leaders are Preterists and Dominionists, and are leading their followers into these controversial doctrines 1Th 5:21 Test all things; hold fast what is good. --- Another Eschatology Article---The latest stream in the Charismatic movement has been evolving since the 90's, but just recently began to take on a name. In fact it seems like they were hiding their identity. At any rate I have only begun to get wind of it over the past two months. I knew what a Preterist was, but it seemed entirely foreign in the Charismatic movement. Now I have come to understand that the full title of this movement is: the Partial Preterist / Dominionist movement. At this time, most Charismatics and Evangelicals have never heard these terms before. If you are such a one, please read on, because you really need to know who these people are and what they are teaching. You may be in the midst of such a group and not even know it. Unlike all the other movements, this one is militant. As Preterists they believe that Jesus' second coming took place way back in 70 A.D. As Dominionists they intend to intimidate, dominate, and conquer the whole world so that Jesus can manifest His presence and rule the world. If you do not succumb to their doctrine you are accused of touching God's anointed, not being in the Spirit of Unity, and coming against God. All the other groups just let you be, but this one doesn't. In a moment we will give a better definition of these terms. These Dominionists tend to scorn and belittle those who would exercise their God-given self-defense weapon of discernment. Those who would obey scripture and “test all things” are mocked and ridiculed and labeled ‘Pharisees.’ It seems that the Church has fallen prey to the modernistic, non-judgmental mindset of our present age. The one unpardonable sin is to question someone’s belief, or dare to say that it might be wrong. These new leaders demand you march inline, and if you cannot agree, then you must remain silent at all costs. They call for us to experience now, and evaluate later. I am reminded of heroin addicts who took one shot and then evaluated that decision for the rest of their wretched lives. They have been very secretive about their doctrine and identity for some reason. We can only recognize them by what they are teaching. They teach a doctrine, but they hide their label. Why? By hiding their label they also hide their identity. Who are the leaders? And prophetically, where is this movement taking us? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

Book Review: This is what one reader said about "Dawning: The Next Great Move of God" in December 2007 Dear brother Ken, I read your book and must say it is rifled with bullets of profundity. The unfolding of your thesis of heart and mind for the church are unbiased of leanings. The lack of regurgitated pretenses bring an air of freedom to the subject matter, unshackling the reader to focus on the heart of what is important, vital, necessary, thus bringing a fresh breathing by the Holy Spirit. You have done the body of Christ a great service in this writing. Your care and dedication to the churches understanding, well being and vitality are evident in its pages. May we hear what the Holy Spirit is saying. Go where the Holy Spirit is going. Do what the Holy Spirit is doing. In Christ, L L CLICK HERE to see other book reviews

And much more.
Most Christian books are written on what God has done in the past and on what we can learn from those visitations. There are also many books devoted to various needs, issues, and problems confronting the church today, as well as methodologies to address them. However, there is too little published on what the Lord is currently speaking to the church. By God's grace that is what the author has attempted to do in this book. God is calling you to stretch your faith as far as you can. As you do, a deep hunger will grow in you to see God bring forth a great end-time harvest. The author gives timely, fresh, powerful keys to seeing this happen in your lifetime! You'll discover first-hand what God is speaking to His church today! A must-read book! You might say that the best of a hundred books are condensed into this one book, with the added bonus of about a dozen all-new insights thrown in. These 21 chapters are a unique work that deserves the attention of all serious Bible students. Whether you agree or disagree with the author, you will be stretched and enriched for effort to prove or disprove his gracious assertions. This is a 250 page book written in the apologetics style, and uses Scripture generously and in context to make each point. This book also has 12 pages of footnotes, 2 pages of the 42 names of the people quoted, and a one page bibliography. Published by Author House. God is on the move, bringing restoration to His Church, and bringing forth His Kingdom on earth as it is in heaven! In "The Next Great Move of God" we will see the restoration of the Acts model for the church, and the 1 Corinthians 12, 13, 14 model for church services. God is doing this to prepare the Bride of Christ to conclude the church age more gloriously than the first century saints brought in the church age at Pentecost. This book shows you how self evident the Acts model is still the same church age model today as it was in the first century church.
How will the next great move of God change your Church?
