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

We must come to an understanding of the biblical meaning of the word “works.” However, to do that we need to hear these verses:

Revelation 20:11-12 NKJV – Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books.

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.

It must also be said that in every single letter to the seven churches in chapters two and three in the book of Revelation the statement of “I know your works” makes it very clear that “works” are the measure we are to be judged upon for our placement within either the service of God through Jesus Christ or the lake of fire and eternal damnation.

Any who say that “works” are not required just called Jesus Christ Himself a liar at least eight times over. Any who calls Christ a liar have listened to the true lair: Satan and it is he that they worship and follow, not God and especially not Jesus Christ.

How is the word “works” defined within the Word of God:

Works – G4234 – praxis – deeds, practices, action, function, an act.

Simply put behavior.

We are all given free will. This is the core of works, action, behavior. There are two extremes of works going on at this time. The religious works which cause parent to kick their children out of their lives because their religious behavior drove their offspring into the arms of Satan.

1 Timothy 3:2-5 NKJV – A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach; not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, but gentle, not quarrelsome, not covetous; one who rules his own house well, having his children in submission with all reverence (for if a man does not know how to rule his own house, how will he take care of the church of God?);

Now yes I know this describes the requirement of a bishop. However, does this diminish he who is head of a so-called “Christian” household? As I have shown and taught in the past. The answer is no. Therefore, a parent shouldn’t without a concerted effort cast out a child they themselves led astray with their own overly strict and most time incorrect behavior.

Once they are forced to cast them out. For it is made clear we are not to associate with those that live in sin per 2 Timothy 3:1-5. The parents are to then turn to themselves and seek repentance from God for it is THEY that have sinned against God for being poor parents. Which resulted in their children to fall away from salvation and chose damnation instead.

For each person is responsible for their own behavior. If they embrace sin and say sin is welcome within their lives and they make no effort to leave those sins which will result in damnation. Especially once they achieve the age of consent, then their fate is their own responsibility to address.

On the other extreme we have those that willfully embrace damnation. Actually fully aware that they are following and worshipping the fallen one: Satan. Their goal is to seek after worldly wealth and earthly recognition. For they honestly believe that their names will be known by all for thousands of years. They hear the names Alexsander, Napolean, Stalin, and yes even Hitler and believe their names will be remembers as well.

Well the Bible says this:

Isaiah 65:17 NKJV – “For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; And the former shall not be remembered or come to mind.”

Many, that even call themselves “Christian” have fallen into this trap of continuing a name. I once encountered a man that was extremely disappointed that his last name would not continue because he had no male offspring and begged people to pray for him to help him to achieve the birth of a boy. Most that replied to him were in agreement with him. This is sin. This is against God and wishing to be worshipped by your children. Those that do this are making themselves a “god.” Truly sad. Only one name deserves to be known by all and forever: Jesus Christ. For none other than Jesus Christ and God  will be remembered.

Those seeking to be remembered as well as following other traditions of men are displaying works, behavior, actions, which we are to be judged by. This is why it is so very important that each and every person STUDY the Word of God for themselves. That way they can learn which sins will deny them from eternal joy in the service of God through Jesus Christ. For it is made extremely clear that there are some sins that will never be allowed to enter into the kingdom of God. Therefore, any who embraces these sins in their everyday live shows that this is their actions, their behavior, their works.

Most have willfully excepted damnation even as they say the name “Jesus” on their lips, defiling it and taking them even further away from God.

Then we come to the middle of the road folks. Those that go about their lives as if all is as it should be. They go to a job. They plan and seek after worldly wants and desires. Like for example. A fancy house, a luxury vehicle, fancy clothes. They think they are followers of Jesus Christ. But in reality they are worshipers of mammon. They live in darkness, thinking they are in the light of God, when this is the furthest thing from the Truth.

Matthew 6:19-24 NKJV – “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. “The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness! “No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.”

When people do this. This planning and seeking after fine houses and places to retire. They show where their heart is, and it is not with God, but here in this world. This again is behavior, actions, and works. They have willfully chosen to make themselves enemies of God.

James 4:4 NKJV – Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

For what they seek after doesn’t come from God at all.

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.” All is of the world and of Satan. And people through their actions and behavior aka works have made their eternal choice. Which is not what most believe is or will be, to their sorrow.

2 Peter 2:20-22 NKJV – For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning. For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them. But it has happened to them according to the true proverb: “A DOG RETURNS TO HIS OWN VOMIT,” and, “a sow, having washed, to her wallowing in the mire.”

It is our daily live, our daily attitude, our daily choices, which are all written down in the books of our lives. Books that will be opened for those of the second and saddest resurrection. For Christ makes it VERY clear how we are to live and act.

Luke 16:13-17 NKJV – “No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.” Now the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, also heard all these things, and they derided Him. And He said to them, “You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is highly esteemed among men is an abomination in the sight of God. “The law and the prophets were until John. Since that time the kingdom of God has been preached, and everyone is pressing into it. And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one tittle of the law to fail.

Matthew 5:17-19 NKJV – “Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

From Mathew five verse twenty-one through chapter 6 verse twenty-four. We are given commandments to follow:

  1. Make peace with those you trespass against you and quickly. (Matthew 5:21-26)
  2. Do not even look at a person of the opposite or even same sex with lust in your mind. (Matthew 5:27-30)
  3. You can only divorce due to sexual immorality. Otherwise, you cause yourself and the other to enter into adultery. (Matthew 5:31-32)
  4. Do not swear an oath upon God or anything else for that matter. Let your yes be yes and your no be no. (Matthew 5:33-37)
  5. Do not seek revenge. If someone slaps you turn the other cheek. If someone sues you concede and give him double what he asks for. If someone insists you go with him for a mile go two miles with him. If someone borrows from you do not expect it to return it. (Matthew 5:38-42)
  6. You shall love your enemies, bless those that curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those that spitefully use you and persecute you. (Matthew 5:43-48)
  7. Give in secret (Matthew 6:1-4)
  8. Pray in secret and how to pray (Matthew 6:5-15)
  9. Fast in secret (Matthew 6:16-18)
  10. Live a needs-only lifestyle and reject mammon (Matthew 6:19-24)

These are all the commandments we are to follow as best we can daily. This is our actions, our behavior, our works, and it is upon these we will be judged. If we stay within them we will not face judgement and be welcomed in the first and greatest of resurrection. Where we will serve with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for one thousand years. If people don’t do them and fail in their actions to follow God and instead embrace and follow lies, they will awaken to the second resurrection where those that do, will stand before the Great White Throne crying and weeping for then the books of their lives will be opened for all to see, and all will be judged accordingly. Pray that the heavenly treasures outweigh the chaff. For if the latter is all that is left then they will know that their name is not written in the Book of Life.

Revelation 20:15 NKJV – And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.

Revelation 21:8 NKJV – But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”

Know that idolatry includes mammon worshippers:

Ephesians 5:3-5 NKJV – But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints; neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks. For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

God Bless
