Until further notice the messages that accompany this notice will be part of the “Come out of her my people” series. They will be harsh. They will cause people to get upset. This is as it should be. They must question the way they think and live. So, they can seek to follow Christ and not the world.

Discussion

The Bible tells us this:

Matthew 22:37-40 NKJV – Jesus said to him, ‘YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.’ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”

I wish to focus upon the first commandment:

“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.”

“With all your mind.”

The only way to focus our minds upon God is to actually STUDY the Word of God. Just after Jesus Christ received the Holy Spirit and then Satan tried to temped Him. Jesus’ very first response to being tempted was this:

Matthew 4:4 NKJV – But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘MAN SHALL NOT LIVE BY BREAD ALONE, BUT BY EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD.’ “

This came from Deuteronomy 8:3. In full context:

Deuteronomy 8:1-3 NKJV – “Every commandment which I command you today you must be careful to observe, that you may live and multiply, and go in and possess the land of which the LORD swore to your fathers. And you shall remember that the LORD your God led you all the way these forty years in the wilderness, to humble you and test you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep His commandments or not. So He humbled you, allowed you to hunger, and fed you with manna which you did not know nor did your fathers know, that He might make you know that man shall not live by bread alone; but man lives by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the LORD.

This is the direct teaching that the Bible. The Word of God is to be our focus. Throughout the centuries though people have drifted away from the Bible as the center. Instead, they turn to what as been called commentaries. People turn to commentaries like the Matthew Henry commentary, The New Interpreter’s Bible, The Expositor’s Bible commentary to name a few.

I have found that that adds to or takes away from the Word of God, which means they are sin and a turning away from the Word of God, but to the word’s of men.

To be upfront and honest, I have and still use a commentary series. However, I take it with a grain of salt and do my best to weed out the corruption of man with the series. It is the John Walvoord Prophecy Commentaries. They have a clear and visible Baptist leaning to them. However, when you weed out this aspect of them, I found them very informative. Why? Because they give you multiple views, from several scholars throughout the centuries.

Unlike most commentaries, which basically force the reader into thinking as the writer of the commentary believes. The Walvoord books show and teach multiple insights that have been established throughout the centuries.

As an example. This being that there are multiple rapture theories that are taught and listened to. The no rapture theory, the pre-tribulation rapture theory. The pre-wrath rapture theory. The partial-rapture theory.

This is not how we are told to study the Word of God. Not just reading but studying. To truly Study the Word of God. Each and every person must break down the words as they were first written down upon parchment.

It is this lack of study that caused many of these commentaries to become the core of false teachings and false doctrine that has led millions down the wrong path.

Time and again I run into those that say to me, that I have misread the Word of God. However, since they refuse to listen and to continue to live in and of the world it is obvious that it is they that have misread the Word of God. Why? Because they have not broken down the words to their original meanings.

Many words do not carry the same meaning they did two thousand years ago and so give a false meaning, which is why it is so important to STUDY the Word of God.

Then there are words like “mammon,” which one woman who professed to being a “Christian” said I was speaking gibberish.

Plus, when studying we come to learn that at times like once again the word “mammon” words have multiple meanings that apply all at the same time. Therefore, so you can understand I will break down the word “mammon” once again.

This word that shows up as a choice of either God or mammon. A choice of one or the other is defined as this:

Riches, which is jewelry and fancy clothes. It is the accumulation of money. It is possessions, like for example all the objects that people collect and hang on their walls and place them around their houses. As well as vehicles that go beyond a need to get from one place to another. It is property that goes beyond our basic protection from the weather, like a huge house and/or multiple houses. As well as unused land for selfish self-pleasing usage.

All of that is mammon and most seek after it and refuse to get rid of it. Which is why this is taught within three gospels:

Mark 10:17-31 NKJV – Now as He was going out on the road, one came running, knelt before Him, and asked Him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?” So Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God. You know the commandments: ‘DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY,’ ‘DO NOT MURDER,’ ‘DO NOT STEAL,’ ‘DO NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS,’ ‘Do not defraud,’ ‘HONOR YOUR FATHER AND YOUR MOTHER.'” And he answered and said to Him, “Teacher, all these things I have kept from my youth.” Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, “One thing you lack: Go your way, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, take up the cross, and follow Me.” But he was sad at this word, and went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions. Then Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, “How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!” And the disciples were astonished at His words. But Jesus answered again and said to them, “Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” And they were greatly astonished, saying among themselves, “Who then can be saved?” But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.” Then Peter began to say to Him, “See, we have left all and followed You.” So Jesus answered and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the gospel’s, who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time—houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions—and in the age to come, eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”

Now, don’t get confused. The houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands is not promised in this life, but our eternal life that is to come.

Matthew 16:24-27 NKJV – Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? For the Son of Man will come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and then He will reward each according to his works.

“For the Son of Man will come in the glory of His Father and His angels. AND THEN HE WILL REWARD EACH ACCORDING TO HIS WORKS!”

Anything, houses, or vehicles and any other earthly rewards NEVER come from God. This is made very clear in the Bible:

1 John 2:15-16 NLT – Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world.

“Pride in our achievements and POSSESSIONS! These are not from the Father, but are from this world.”

Meaning we are to do without them.

1 Timothy 6:6-8 NKJV – Now godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and clothing, with these we shall be content.

Now I want people to take notice. In the last two groups of verses, I used two different versions of the Bible. In 1 John I used the New Living Translation and in the 1 Timothy I used the New King James. This is because I studied the Word of God and found the that NTL of 1 John is more accurate and true to the original meaning of the words as they were placed upon parchment nearly two thousand years ago.

However, this is not true for all of the NLT, which is why I use the NKJV when sharing the Word of God for the most part. It is also through studying the Word of God that I found the NIV “bible” is actually a people pleaser book and so needs to be thrown in the garbage ASAP. I really feel sorry for those folks that wrote that book for they have cursed themselves to damnation. Truly sad. But that book actually makes these verses make sense when you think about how they changed the Word of God and even removed important verses all to make people feel good.

Galatians 1:6-10 NKJV – I marvel that you are turning away so soon from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel, which is not another; but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have received, let him be accursed. For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ.

“I marvel that you are turning away so soon from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel, which is not another.”

“To a different gospel, which is not another.” That is the NIV. Something that is twice cursed and has led millions not to salvation, but damnation. Very sad.

All because they refused to STDUY the Word of God for themselves. Breaking down the word as they were written two thousand years ago with the aid of a Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance as well as the Theological dictionaries of both the OT and the NT. These are not commentaries especially the dictionary. Even though there is some paragraphs to read. It is mainly an explanation of what the words meant when they were written down not only in the Greek, Hebrew and Aramaic, but their actual meanings when the were placed upon parchment.

Again, STUDY the Word of God for yourselves. Don’t take my word for anything I actually challenge you to prove me wrong and thus a false teacher. I dare you too.

God Bless
