Joe Gans was born and raised in Baltimore and is considered among the greatest lightweight boxers of all time. Popularly known as the Old Master, Gans was crowned the World champion in the lightweight division; a title that he held from 1902 up until 1908. He held the record as the first ever person of color to hold a professional world boxing title.
Gans began his professional career in 1891 in his hometown of Baltimore. He came close to clinching the world title in 1900 when he fought Frank Erne but he was forced to bow out due to a cut on his eye. He finally became world champion after a rematch with Erne in 1902 which he won by knockout.
Gans managed to defend his title on several occasions including a memorable duel with Oscar Nelson; popularly known as Durable Dane in 1906 which lasted an unimaginable 42 rounds.
Joe Gans was originally known as Joseph Gant but after a newspaper reporter wrongly spelled his name, he decided to take up his newly acquired moniker. Over his illustrious career Gans was able to record 145 wins; 100 of which were by way of knockouts, 10 losses and 16 draws. He is considered one of the best pound-for-pound sluggers in his weight class to ever step in the ring.
In 1990, Joe Gans was honoured with an induction into the International Boxing Hall of Fame. He has also been immortalized with a statue at the Madison Square Garden lobby.
Joe Gans was the inspiration behind a character in Ernest Hemingway’s short story titled ‘A matter of color’ which was written in 1916.
Gans succumbed to tuberculosis in August 1910. He was laid to rest at the Mount Auburn Cemetery which is in Baltimore. A monument was built near the entrance to the cemetery in his honor and is maintained by the International Boxing Commission.

Hey, how’s it going?
I want to pass along some very important news that everyone needs to hear!
In December of 2017, Donald Trump made history by recognizing Jerusalem as the captial of Israel. Why is this big news? Because by this the Jewish people of Israel are now able to press forward in bringing about the Third Temple prophesied in the Bible.
The Jewish people deny Jesus as their Messiah and have stated that their Messiah has been identified and is waiting to be revealed. They say this man will rule the world under a one world religion called “spiritualism”.
They even printed a coin to raise money for the Temple with Donald Trumps face on the front and with king Cyrus'(who built the second Temple) behind him. On the back of the coin is an image of the third Temple.
The Bible says this false Messiah who seats himself in the Third Temple will be thee antichrist that will bring about the Great Tribulation, though the Jewish people believe he will bring about world peace. It will be a false peace for a period of time. You can watch interviews of Jewish Rabbi’s in Israel speaking of these things. They have their plans set in place. It is only years away!
More importantly, the power that runs the world wants to put a RFID microchip in our body making us total slaves to them. This chip matches perfectly with the Mark of the Beast in the Bible, more specifically Revelation 13:16-18:
He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.
Referring to the last days, this could only be speaking of a cashless society, which we have yet to see, but are heading towards. Otherwise, we could still buy or sell without the mark amongst others if physical money was still currency. RFID microchip implant technology will be the future of a one world cashless society containing digital currency. It will be implanted in the right-hand or the forehead, and we cannot buy or sell without it! We must grow strong in Jesus. AT ALL COSTS, DO NOT TAKE IT!
Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.” (Revelation 14:9-11).
People have been saying the end is coming for many years, but we need two key things. One, the Third Temple, and two, the technology for a cashless society to fulfill the prophecy of the Mark of the Beast.
