sin

Judging — the Biblical Truth

Apparently, we have to discuss judging once again.

As I have shown in the past most have swallowed the false teaching of “Thou shall not judge…..”As has been shown in the past this false doctrine is designed to allow those that continue to live in sin to stay in sin. As has been shown this verse is the beginning of a teaching about hypocrisy. When someone judges someone living in the exact same sin they themselves partake in. They have no room to judge…. UNTIL they address their own sin first.

The keyword in that last sentence was “until.” Throughout the NT more than once those that are of the body are told to remove people from them that are sinning.

Most don’t want to accept that every letter beyond the gospels and the book of act with the exception of the book of Revelation was aimed directly at those that WERE baptized and born-again. Followers of Jesus Christ. Time and again we are told to be watchful, not to sin, remove those that sin from us. Not those outside the Body of Christ, but those within the Body of Christ.

Which means Chirstians ARE to judge.

More than once in the letters that form the NT we are told to judge:

1 Corinthians 5:1-7 NKJV – It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even named among the Gentiles—that a man has his father’s wife! And you are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he who has done this deed might be taken away from among you. For I indeed, as absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged (as though I were present) him who has so done this deed. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, along with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. Your glorying is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us.

1 Timothy 6:2-5 NKJV – And those who have believing masters, let them not despise them because they are brethren, but rather serve them because those who are benefited are believers and beloved. Teach and exhort these things. If anyone teaches otherwise and does not consent to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which accords with godliness, he is proud, knowing nothing, but is obsessed with disputes and arguments over words, from which come envy, strife, reviling, evil suspicions, useless wranglings of men of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. From such withdraw yourself.

2 Timothy 3:1-5 NKJV  But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!

John 7:24 NKJV – Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment.”

1 Corinthians 2:15-16 NKJV – But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. For “WHO HAS KNOWN THE MIND OF THE LORD THAT HE MAY INSTRUCT HIM?” But we have the mind of Christ.

1 Corinthians 14:29 NKJV – Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others judge.

Ephesians 5:1-11 NKJV – Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma. 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. Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. Therefore do not be partakers with them. For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), finding out what is acceptable to the Lord. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them.

2 Peter 2:1-3 NKJV – But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed. By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber.

1 John 4:1 NKJV – Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

Revelation 2:2 NKJV – “I know your works, your labor, your patience, and that you cannot bear those who are evil. And you have tested those who say they are apostles and are not, and have found them liars;

The Word of God NEVER contradicts itself. With all these verses saying to test and judge how can there be a verse that says not to judge???

THERE CANNOT BE!!!!!

Therefore, any who say you shall not judge are teaching a false teaching and fall under this curse:

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.

For they are teaching a people pleasing doctrine which will damn them twice over to eternal damnation.

True Christians are to judge. To remove those that bring rot into the Body of Christ.

Judging is something that is required. We must go through training. Do lawyers go straight to being a judge? No, they don’t.

However, True Christians are to be judges.

Revelation 20:4 NKJV – And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was committed to them. Then I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Jesus and for the word of God, who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. And they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.

Revelation 20:4 NLT – Then I saw thrones, and the people sitting on them had been given the authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their testimony about Jesus and for proclaiming the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or his statue, nor accepted his mark on their foreheads or their hands. They all came to life again, and they reigned with Christ for a thousand years.

“Then I saw thrones, and the people sitting on them had been given the authority to judge.”

Stop accepting lies. Those that wish to follow Christ MUST study the Word of God for themselves and come to know the real Truth within it.

Those that Embrace Lies to Live in Their Own Earthly Happiness of Wealth

As I reflect on the many encounters I have had on social media I have come to one conclusion. I even made another blog post about it a couple of months back. However, I feel I must re-address it once again.

It is the way people treat the Word of God. They pick and choose what they want to accept as their truth. They then deny what the Word of God actually says and turns it into a lie. Not realizing it is that they are living in a lie. The Word of God actually tells us this:

2 Timothy 4:3-4 NKJV – For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.

As usual people in this age are in reality more mammon-worshippers than followers of Christ. Jesus Christ knew this and described it in the last letter in the book of Revelation.

Revelation 3:15-17 NKJV – “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth. Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked—

You see most that profess to being “Christian” are in reality the lukewarm aka mammon-worshippers. Once again, I will describe what makes someone a mammon-worshipper.

Those that are mammon-worshippers seek after riches (jewelry, and fancy clothes), money (seeking after and hording earthly wealth beyond what is needed to make it to the next day), possessions (those objects that gather dust all over your houses and as well as luxury vehicles and any vehicle that goes beyond the basic need of transport to places you need to get to) and then property (huge house beyond the basic need for shelter and/or multiple houses as well as empty land filled with nothing to help those in need.)

People believe they can have all this and still be a “Christian.” Yet Jesus Christ made it VERY clear.

Luke 14:25-33 NKJV – Now great multitudes went with Him. And He turned and said to them, “If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple. And whoever does not bear his cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple. For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it— lest, after he has laid the foundation, and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’ Or what king, going to make war against another king, does not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? Or else, while the other is still a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks conditions of peace. So likewise, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has cannot be My disciple.

“Whoever of you does not forsake all that he has cannot be My disciple.”

Let’s look at this from another translation:

“So you cannot become my disciple without giving up everything you own.”

“Without giving up EVERYTHING YOU OWN.”

Most refuse to give up everything if anything. In fact they actually esteem to seek after what those of the world esteem. This makes this real:

Luke 16:13-15 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.

Which leads to this reality:

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.”

Most refuse to hear or accept the Truth that they are not welcome in the kingdom of God. They think because they go to a building called a “church” once a week and sing a few songs and listen to false teachers that they are welcome for all eternity into the service of God through Jesus Christ. However, this is the furthest thing from the Truth. Which is why Christ said this:

Matthew 7:21- 23 NKJV – “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’

This describes most that call themselves “Christian” at this time. They are not welcome in the presence of God. They will awaken to the second resurrection and stand before the Great White Throne. This is something any TRUE Christian will seek to avoid. For a TRUE Christian seeks to be part of the first resurrection:

Revelation 20:4-6 NKJV – And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was committed to them. Then I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Jesus and for the word of God, who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. And they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. But the rest of the dead did not live again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with Him a thousand years.

Now any who challenge this just because these TRUTHS are appearing in this blog post are actually showing that they believe they are greater than the Word of God. And who inspired the Word of God?

2 Timothy 3:16-17 NKJV – All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

Therefore, they are challenging the Holy Spirit whose name is Jesus Christ. Thus, they are making themselves the enemy of Christ. Because to them their worldly wealth is more precious to them than God through Jesus Christ thus they are greater than God Himself and what does this make them in turn?

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.

And all enemies of God are not welcome in the kingdom of heaven or in ANY rapture that is to soon occur. For the word “Tribulation” means the punishment of someone’s enemies. That ”someone” is God and His Son Jesus Christ as shown in James 4:4 and they deserve to be left behind and suffer what is to occur. That is unless they repent, preach the Word of God and then die a martyrs death as promised in Revelation chapter 7:9-14.

There are those that will insist they are special, exempt, perfect. That they can keep their earthly wealth and live however they desire. Because they are God’s chosen and He is rewarding them. This was spelled out here:

1 Timothy 6:6-19 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. But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful lusts which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. But you, O man of God, flee these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, gentleness. Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. I urge you in the sight of God who gives life to all things, and before Christ Jesus who witnessed the good confession before Pontius Pilate, that you keep this commandment without spot, blameless until our Lord Jesus Christ’s appearing, which He will manifest in His own time, He who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see, to whom be honor and everlasting power. Amen. Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy. Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share, storing up for themselves a good foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.

Key statements made in this teaching within the Word of God:

“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.”

“Having food and clothing, with these we shall be content.”

“For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness.”

“The love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness.”

“FOR WHICH SOME HAVE STRAYED FROM THE FAITH IN THEIR GREEDINESS!”

“But you, O man of God, flee these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, gentleness. Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life.”

And most importantly to those that now have earthly wealth we hear this:

“Command (COMMAND) those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy. Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share, storing up for themselves a good foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.”

(With their earthly wealth) “let them do good, that they be rich in good works.”

And what are these “works?” “Ready to give, willing to share.”

How is this accomplished??? By returning to the beginning of this teaching by the Holy Spirit via Paul to Timothy:

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.

By living a NEEDS ONLY LIFESTYLE!! Remember what was stated by Jesus Christ in Luke chapter 14??

Luke 14:33 NLT – So you cannot become my disciple without giving up everything you own.

Stop getting angry. For you are getting angry at the Word of God, which means you are getting angry with Jesus Christ whom you call your Savior, yet you deny Him by keeping your earthly wealth unto yourselves.

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.

And who is in charge of this world at this time??

2 Corinthians 4:4 NLT – Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God.

This means by hording your earthly wealth unto yourselves you are blind because in reality you truly do not believe in the Good News. Therefore, you are a liar and what is the fate of ALL LIARS??

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.”

True Nature

In a dream last night God through His way told me this:

“People will now be starting to show their true nature.”

These words in my dream led me to this:

1 Corinthians 5:1-13 NKJV – It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even named among the Gentiles—that a man has his father’s wife! And you are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he who has done this deed might be taken away from among you. For I indeed, as absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged (as though I were present) him who has so done this deed. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, along with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. Your glorying is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us. Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. I wrote to you in my epistle not to keep company with sexually immoral people. Yet I certainly did not mean with the sexually immoral people of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters, since then you would need to go out of the world. But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner—not even to eat with such a person. For what have I to do with judging those also who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside? But those who are outside God judges. Therefore “PUT AWAY FROM YOURSELVES THE EVIL PERSON.”

Too many have turned the body of Christ into the leaven. For they were never removed as ordered by the Word of God. They have polluted the body of Christ to the point of being worthy of destruction.

They will soon show their true nature for all to see.

2 Timothy 3:1-9 NKJV – But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning the faith; but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, as theirs also was.

This not only describes those outside the Body of Christ, but those that think they are still apart of the body of Christ. As shown in Romans chapter two.

They will show themselves to be depraved and deviants worthy of damnation not the false image of salvation they have wrapped themselves within.

Understand. Any who believe the Word of God is something that is just suggestions. Or if they call any part of the Word of God a lie, they have just denied Jesus Christ publicly.

Now in reference to calling a part of the Word of God a lie. I will show a huge example of this. In the book of Revelation this is shown in chapter 7 of that book:

Revelation 7:1-8 NKJV – After these things I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, on the sea, or on any tree. Then I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God. And he cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was granted to harm the earth and the sea, saying, “Do not harm the earth, the sea, or the trees till we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” And I heard the number of those who were sealed. One hundred and forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel were sealed: of the tribe of Judah twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Gad twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Levi twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Benjamin twelve thousand were sealed.

Since God does not lie or change in ANY WAY There can only be one interpterion of these verses. That the 144,000 will be formed exclusively from the Tribes of Israel. That means any who says they are part of the 144,000 or that their group can look forward to being part of this if they call themselves “Christian” have just shown to the world that they are false teachers.

For as stated just a moment ago. God does not change. God is not fickle. Only humans are fickle. Only humans change. As demonstrated by the book of Amos. Therefore, the 144,000 are ONLY and exclusively from the Tribes of Israel and has ZERO bearing upon the lives of any who profess to being followers of Jesus Christ that are not of the tribes of Israel.

Then even bothering to identify who will be within this group is a wasted effort and is as writers of fiction refer to as the “red herring.” This brings us to these verses within the Bible:

2 Timothy 4:1-4 NKJV – I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom: Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.

“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.”

Believing that Christians have anything to do with the 144,000 is a fable. For what is said next in chapter 7 of the book of Revelation:

Revelation 7:9-17 NKJV – After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!” All the angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four living creatures, and fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, saying: “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom, Thanksgiving and honor and power and might, Be to our God forever and ever. Amen.” Then one of the elders answered, saying to me, “Who are these arrayed in white robes, and where did they come from?” And I said to him, “Sir, you know.” So he said to me, “These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore they are before the throne of God, and serve Him day and night in His temple. And He who sits on the throne will dwell among them. They shall neither hunger anymore nor thirst anymore; the sun shall not strike them, nor any heat; for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains of waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”

KEY WORDS:

“AFTER THESE THINGS”

This includes the sealing of the 144,000. This includes the breaking of the first 6 seals, which also describes damage being done to the earth which means the sealing of the 144,000 comes before the sixth seal. However, the seventh seal has yet to be broken when those that are a “great multitude” appear before the Throne.

People really need to read this warning:

Revelation 22:18-19 NKJV – For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book; and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

But I have gotten way off track.

People within what they believe to be the body of Christ will show their true natures. Natures we are told time and again to purge from the Body of Christ:

Ephesians 5:1-21 NKJV – Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma. 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. Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. Therefore do not be partakers with them. For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), finding out what is acceptable to the Lord. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light. Therefore He says: “Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, And Christ will give you light.” NKJV  See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is. And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, submitting to one another in the fear of God.

“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light.”

“For whatever makes manifest is light.” And thus of God.

A while back a congressman had to educate a so-called “pastor” about the Word of God. He used this verse to give this false teacher a true lesson of God’s Word:

2 Corinthians 9:7 NKJV – So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.

This is one of the greatest misconceptions that has turned most that profess to being “Christians” into the lukewarm. They believe that by paying taxes to a nation’s government it is no longer their responsibility to care for those in need. Thus, they can keep the majority of their earthly wealth unto themselves because they paid their taxes and gave their 10% tithe to a building called a “church.”

This fits two of the three categories described in the verse above. That being “grudgingly” and by “necessity.”

However, those that truly seek to follow Christ do so as a “cheerful giver.” This is expanded upon when reading 1 Timothy.

First, we are told this:

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.

Secondly, we are commanded .. commanded this:

1 Timothy 6:17-19 NKJV – Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy. Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share, storing up for themselves a good foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.

This is a clear commandment from the Word of God that most that now profess to being followers of Jesus Christ ….. aren’t. But followers of their earthly wants and lusts.

1 John 2:15-16 NKJV – Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.

Or a better translation is this:

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.

This is the nature of the beast. For most truly do not seek to reflect Christ but the world itself which esteems what God sees as an abomination.

Luke 16:13-15 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.

Most justify themselves before men by how fancy they dress and live. All of which is mammon worship and a sin against God.

Just so we understand what is considered mammon and how it is worshipped. Those that are mammon-worshippers seek after riches (jewelry, and fancy clothes), money (seeking after and hording earthly wealth beyond what is needed to make it to the next day), possessions (those objects that gather dust all over your houses and as well as luxury vehicles and any vehicle that goes beyond the basic need of transport to places you need to get to) and then property (a huge house beyond the basic need for shelter and/or multiple houses as well as empty land filled with nothing to help those in need.) 

All that is listed above is what is esteemed by those that live only for the world and not for God.

Here is another point that needs to be made about taxes.

Mark 12:13-17 NKJV – Then they sent to Him some of the Pharisees and the Herodians, to catch Him in His words. When they had come, they said to Him, “Teacher, we know that You are true, and care about no one; for You do not regard the person of men, but teach the way of God in truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not? Shall we pay, or shall we not pay?” But He, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, “Why do you test Me? Bring Me a denarius that I may see it.” So they brought it. And He said to them, “Whose image and inscription is this?” They said to Him, “Caesar’s.” And Jesus answered and said to them, “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” And they marveled at Him.

“Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s and to God the things that are God’s.”

Paying taxes had zero to do with serving God by His standards other than following this verses:

Titus 3:1 NKJV – Remind them to be subject to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work,

Therefore, God’s commandment is to live a needs-only lifestyle keeping the majority of our earthly wealth at the ready to help those in need. Is the glorious standard we are not just instructed, but commanded … again commanded to do. This has nothing to do with the necessity to pay taxes to a government.

This emphasizes that the majority who profess to being a follower of Jesus Christ are liars and hypocrites who have been spewed out of the Body of Christ long ago.

Revelation 3:15-17 NKJV – “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth. Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked—

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.”

The only way to succeed at being a cheerful giver is by living off the least of our earthly wealth, which in turn makes it easier to be cheerful when we see an opportunity to give to those in need. It becomes cheerful because we are doing so for Christ who is not only our Savior but the benchmark we seek to reflect. Additionally, since in essence it is money that is just lying around gathering dust it is easy to dispense and so something that brings us joy to give and to share, thus making us – ”cheerful givers.”

Now, in this time. I see most laughing off these Biblical Truths. However, when you think upon it. When it come time for the decision to choose the mark of the beast or face starvation as well as the loss of their earthly possessions people will awaken to the Truth. The Truth that because they laughed off this study of the Word of God, and refused to downsize to the bare minimum to survive within this world they turned themselves into enemies of God, For the word “tribulation” means a punishment of an enemy. During that seven-year period it will be all that find themselves upon this earthly plain of existence within this time frame. For only those that DO find themselves here are ALL enemies of God.

Christianity and TDS

Now before I begin this. I must give a preface. I am no fan of Donald Trump the man. I do like many of his actions as a president of the US. I voted for him every time his name appeared upon the ballot. As a fellow human and a Christian. I can say I love him as I am instructed to do by the Word of God.

1 John 4:20-21 NKJV – If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.

This being made clear we come to those that suffer what has been called TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome). The Word of God alone identifies those that behave and act in such a manner. They are liars. Honestly, if you look at how they behave beyond the TDS you will see that they are liars in other aspects of their lives as well. Many even spout out that they are “Christian.” Which as shown in the Bible verses given so far today that this is the furthest thing from the Truth. That said let us verify this even more.

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.”

“And ALL liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”

“All liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone.”

There is more to this behavior than just lying by the way. Let us look elsewhere in the Word of God. For when we have God’s love within us, we come to behave in a certain way:

Ephesians 4:11-16 NKJV  And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.

In the middle of these verses, it shows the behavior of those that do not love their God or their fellow humans:

“that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting.”

We see this behavior every day from those that do not have God within them. One day they have Ukrainian flags and support of the nation of Ukraine, then the next they have rainbow flags supporting the mutilation of children to be turned into the sex not given them by God. Then on to the latest fad of the moment. All that do this show they have no love of the Father within them no matter what they may profess or even which job they have like for example standing in front of a group of people in a building called a “church,” which as I have shown in recent posting that these buildings are nothing more than a den of thieves that deny God and worship Satan. Every single one of them for there isn’t one that I know of that teaches that we are to live off 10% of our earthly wealth and the 90% is to be kept for those in need. Not including the tithe that should go to someone that truly is a repetitive of God through Jesus Christ.

Now I wish to bring up another point that has to do with the first verses shown today. Therefore, I will present them once again:

1 John 4:20-21 NKJV – If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.

I have encountered those that insist this only pertains to interaction only between those that profess to being “Christian.” Consequently, this implies that those that profess to being followers of Christ are not required to treat any others as our brothers and sisters.

This mentality places those that think this on the same level as those that follow the Muslim religion for example. A religion which states that if you are not Muslim then you … meaning all others are infidels and can be lied to, treated like garbage and slain.

All who are a child of Adam, meaning all of humanity ARE our brothers and sisters. We are told not to act superior. Those that act superior in reality hate their brothers and sisters and therefore have no love of God within them and therefore are liars per the main verses in today’s study. But lets go deeper on these lines:

 Romans 12:3 NKJV – For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.

Romans 12:16 NKJV – Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.

Philippians 2:3 NKJV – Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.

Jeremiah 13:15 NKJV – Hear and give ear: Do not be proud, For the LORD has spoken.

Proverbs 16:18 NKJV – Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall.

Proverbs 21:4 NKJV – A haughty look, a proud heart, And the plowing of the wicked are sin.

James 4:6 NKJV – But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: “GOD RESISTS THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE.”

Part of being humble is placing all others before ourselves. Be they Christian or not, for we know that the only way to eternity is through Jesus Christ. Since we are to be a reflection of Christ we are to be nice to all especially those that live in sin so that they will learn the Truth and repent.

How can they do this if you look down upon them with a haughty attitude and believe yourselves to be superior to them just as the Muslims see themselves as superior to all others. When you understand the teachings within the Quran. You know one thing for sure. Muslims in no way follow any teachings by Jesus Christ and seek to destroy all others. For in their eyes, they are superior and must dominate, control and destroy all who oppose them.

Therefore, any who says that all of humanity is not our equals, shows they are equal to those that are Muslim, which shows they do not have the love of God within them and are liars. And where again are ALL LIARS destined?

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.”

The Lukewarm the Walking Dead are Thriving

bible, Bible study, Christian, Christian Life, General, Guide, Life, Relationship, , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

Well, the other day I was forced to listen to conversations between someone close and their friends. In one of these conversations, I listened to the ultimate example of the lukewarm. Now let’s get the formula established that identifies who is amongst the “lukewarm” or more attuned to the present: the foolish bridesmaids.

Revelation 3:15-16 NKJV – “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.

So, a lukewarm is someone who acts hot for God. Praising God saying Hallelujah and then live totally and completely cold for God. Living in wealth and luxury.  How do I know this… check the next verse:

Revelation 3:17 NKJV – Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked—

Now, since we have the description established. Let’s continue. So, the person talking was an elderly lady. First thing out of her mouth was just having finished a Bible study about heaven. The details aren’t important for this post. Well soon after she started talking about her seven-year-old granddaughter. The lady mentioned not decorating that much for the holiday “Christmas.” However, she did mention the use of Satan Claus in her décor. Returning to the seven-year-old. She followed her grandma into the kitchen and whispered. “Haven’t you decorated for Christmas yet?” The lady said this with such pride in her voice describing her grandchild.

Then they started talking about nails and nail polish. Again, with extreme pride the lady announced that her granddaughter used a professional manicurist to paint the child’s nails. That the child noted her grandma’s nails needed to be painted and offered to take her grandma to her salon to get their nails painted together.

The hubris and ultimate worshipping of the world excreting from that conversation was just so damning and sad, especially for the seven-year-old.

Luke 17:2 NKJV – It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.

Offend – G4624 – skandalizó – To “scandalize”; from G4625; to entrap, that is, trip up (figuratively stumble [transitively] or entice to sin, apostasy or displeasure): – (make to) offend.

This seven-year-old granddaughter has been offended and hasn’t even reached the age of consent and is living in mammon-worship, thus sinning against God. Yet the grandparents and parents are proud of their sinfulness. It is beyond sad for all three generations. They are so blind to their sin because of the great falling away created during the Great Depression. That turned most of that generation into mammon-worshippers. Most actually believing that Christ has given them earthly treasures, which is 100% opposite the teachings of Jesus Christ Himself. Which is reinforced by the 1st letter of John the blessed.

1 John 2:15-16 NKJV – Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.

Let’s define once more what it is to be a mammon worshipper.

Those that are mammon-worshippers seek after riches (jewelry, and fancy clothes), money (seeking after and hording earthly wealth beyond what is needed to make it to the next day), possessions (those objects that gather dust all over your houses and as well as luxury vehicles and any vehicle that goes beyond the basic need of transport to places you need to get to) and then property (a huge house beyond the basic need for shelter and/or multiple houses as well as empty land filled with nothing to help those in need.)

This includes allowing little girls to dress like grown women.

Leviticus 19:29 NKJV – ‘Do not prostitute your daughter, to cause her to be a harlot, lest the land fall into harlotry, and the land become full of wickedness.

Prostitute – chalal – H2490 – begin (X men began), defile, X break, defile, X eat (as common things), X first, X gather the grape thereof, X take inheritance, pipe, player on instruments, pollute, (cast as) profane (self), prostitute, slay (slain), sorrow, stain, wound

Which is exactly why most of the so-called 1st world countries ARE full of wickedness. Because people have basically turned their daughters into prostitutes by allow them to dress as grown women. Which is known as polluting the children.

They are polluted by not allowing them to grow in a nurturing environment. Not filled with the pollution caused by mammon worship. But in the instruction and knowledge of the Word of God.

Proverbs 22:6 NKJV – Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.

Ephesians 6:4 NKJV – And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord.

Deuteronomy 6:6-7 NKJV – “And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.

Now I wish to make a note of something real quick. In Ephesians this is said:

“Do not provoke your children to wrath.”

You provoke your children when you beat them. Not spank, beat. A spanking is not beating. Beating is extreme violence. A spanking is restrained and is discipline, which we are required to do.

Proverbs 13:24 NKJV – He who spares his rod hates his son, But he who loves him disciplines him promptly.

A beating leaves damage. Not only physical, but mental which in turn chases the children away from God and salvation. Because the parent as provoked them to wrath.

Just as allowing them to turn into mammon worshippers leaves scars mentally. For they seek after more and more earthly objects which is totally opposite the teachings of Jesus Christ and leads them into darkness, that they think is light.

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.

Only evil and damnation are found in darkness and True followers of Christ are to bring light into the darkness:

Ephesians 5:1-21 NKJV – Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma. 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. Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. Therefore do not be partakers with them. For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), finding out what is acceptable to the Lord. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light. Therefore He says: “Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, And Christ will give you light.” See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is. And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, submitting to one another in the fear of God.

The New Den of Thieves

bible, Bible study, Christian, Christian Life, General, government, Life, Relationship, , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

In another social media thread God through the Holy Spirit brought my attention to those that go to churches once again. The analogy of one sheep going off a cliff and the rest of the herd following it over the edge comes to mind. Over the edge to true damnation.

The interchange was once again about following the commandment Christ gave us on where we are to pray (Matthew 6:5-6). Yet the Holy Spirit wishes me to expand upon this and show how the buildings called “churches” do more to lead people to damnation instead of salvation. Thus, in reality they are not a place to worship God, but instead a place to worship and follow Satan.

The person like all the spoiled brats that form the majority of Christendom insisted that he was right and the Words spoken by Jesus Christ Himself were wrong.

This “spoiled brat” mentality has its core in religion and is amplifier by the buildings called “churches.”

In our exchange of praying in private he resorted to the old fallback position of: “Do you go to church, because they pray publicly there.”

In simpler terms he just confessed that the buildings called “churches” promote and encourage sin. I mean think about it. They make a show about tithing when giving is to be secret, in fact all giving is to be secret (Matthew 6:1-4). On the topic of the tithe, they encourage all to keep 90% of their earthly wealth, which is opposite Christ’s teaching (Matthew 6:19-21,24). They make a show about dressing up which is flaunting mammon worship. Mammon worship that ties in with keeping most of our earthly wealth.

The modern-day buildings called “churches” create nothing but thieves. Much like the way the second temple had deteriorated into the den of thieves that prompted Christ to losing His temper and overturn the merchants tables. Thieves that steal from God and His eternal plan.

You see we are given a commandment in 1 Timothy:

1 Timothy 6:17-19 NKJV – Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy. Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share, storing up for themselves a good foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.

This is a direct command to keep the majority of our earthly wealth at the ready to help those in need. Yet those that go to churches keep 90% of their earthly wealth or more to worship mammon.

Those that are mammon-worshippers seek after riches (jewelry, and fancy clothes), money (seeking after and hording earthly wealth beyond what is needed to make it to the next day), possessions (those objects that gather dust all over your houses and as well as luxury vehicles and any vehicle that goes beyond the basic need of transport to places you need to get to) and then property (huge house beyond the basic need for shelter and/or multiple houses as well as empty land filled with nothing to help those in need.)

This description describes the majority that enter the buildings called “churches.” Being mammon-worshippers turns them into thieves who horde and care only for their own well-being. In actuality caring nothing for their fellow humans.

It is these mammon-worshippers that caused Atheism. That chased away their children from God and True salvation. That has deteriorated humanity and helped in fulfilling prophecy, which is why these verses were written:

2 Timothy 3:1-5 NKJV – But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!

Most that go to churches are found and seen in these verses. Churches are to be avoided. If you truly seek after God. Study the Word of God yourselves. Not reading, STUDY. There is a huge difference.

People wouldn’t go about say things like the person in the social media thread said, which equaled calling Jesus Christ Himself a liar. Do you understand the implication of those words? That is blasphemy, that is blaspheming the Holy Spirit.

Matthew 12:31 NKJV – “Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men.

The name of the Holy Spirit is Jesus Christ. Therefore, when someone says that Christ didn’t say something in the Bible, yet that is not the Truth. They call the Holy Spirit who inspired (2 Timothy 3:16-17) all the Words within the Bible a liar and have blasphemed the Holy Spirit.

Within these buildings called “churches” are little social groups that gather, yet they ignore other people that go to the same church. You will note these groups seek after the same things. They play golf, they drink alcohol, they party. That is the activity of a social club, not what the church is to be like. Only once is a true “church” described within the Bible:

Acts 2:44-47 NKJV – Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common, and sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as anyone had need. So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart, praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.

This was a TRUE “church.” A community that shared everything together. Those who had more shared with those that had less and all shared equally. That is a TRUE community and church. That hasn’t existed for thousands of years. It is something that those that pursue communism promise. However, to date communism has only given wealth to the wealthy and left the poor in starvation and squaller. They use this perfect image of a true Christian community as their poster child. Because people seek after this they believe the lies. Why?

Because the buildings called “churches” are nothing but social clubs that teach and promote false doctrine, That are described in great detail in 2 Peter 2:

 2 Peter 2:1-22 NKJV – But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed. By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber. For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment; and did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly; and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly; and delivered righteous Lot, who was oppressed by the filthy conduct of the wicked (for that righteous man, dwelling among them, tormented his righteous soul from day to day by seeing and hearing their lawless deeds)— then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations and to reserve the unjust under punishment for the day of judgment, and especially those who walk according to the flesh in the lust of uncleanness and despise authority. They are presumptuous, self-willed. They are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries, whereas angels, who are greater in power and might, do not bring a reviling accusation against them before the Lord. But these, like natural brute beasts made to be caught and destroyed, speak evil of the things they do not understand, and will utterly perish in their own corruption, and will receive the wages of unrighteousness, as those who count it pleasure to carouse in the daytime. They are spots and blemishes, carousing in their own deceptions while they feast with you, having eyes full of adultery and that cannot cease from sin, enticing unstable souls. They have a heart trained in covetous practices, and are accursed children. They have forsaken the right way and gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; but he was rebuked for his iniquity: a dumb donkey speaking with a man’s voice restrained the madness of the prophet. These are wells without water, clouds carried by a tempest, for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever. For when they speak great swelling words of emptiness, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through lewdness, the ones who have actually escaped from those who live in error. While they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption; for by whom a person is overcome, by him also he is brought into bondage. 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.”

This is how those within the buildings call “churches” behave. It is all about them. It is only about them. Where is God? Where is Jesus? Oh, in the songs they sing. In the prayers they are not supposed to be doing publicly. At their Super Bowl parties, their golf meets.

The buildings called “Churches” have nothing to do with the True Word of God and have not been that way for decades. If they had then those children that came out of the Great Depression would have all been devote followers of Christ. Instead, they came out horders of earthly wealth and luxuries. Destine not to salvation, but damnation. For these buildings are nothing but a den of thieves.

As I look about me, I can’t help but be bewildered by how people continue to act and behave. Most still show their blindness to the Truth. Especially when they watch gladiator events like the Super Bowl and celebrate it as something special and scared.

I can remember back to just a few weeks before September10th that not only myself, but others that have been watchful sensed something was coming that would affect Christianity. Most, including myself, felt there was a rapture about to occur. However, that is not what happened. Instead, it was the “midnight cry” from the parable of the bridesmaids in chapter 25 of Matthew.

Therefore, something very significant did occur that day in September. The first thing to greatly change those that profess to being “Christian” since Christ Himself rose from the dead upon the third day. For on that day a divide occurred between just those that profess to being “Christian.” The “wise bridesmaids” and the “foolish bridesmaids.”

The “wise bridesmaids” are the ones that have been obedient to God and following His commandments. The “foolish bridesmaids” are those that are the “lukewarm” as described in Revelation 3:15-17. These form the majority of those that profess to being “Christian” for Himself made that very clear.

Matthew 7:13-14 NKJV – “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.

For those that have entered the narrow gate are few and those that are the “wise bridesmaids.” The rest are the “foolish bridesmaids,” and their fate is made clear:

Matthew 25:7-12 NKJV – Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ But the wise answered, saying, ‘No, lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’ And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut. “Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’ But he answered and said, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.’

They shall be left behind.

Most will deny this. This is obvious, for all have returned to living as they ever did, just as Christ told us they would.

Matthew 24:36-39 NKJV – “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

Most live their lives not trying to fix their relationship. But the thing is. They wouldn’t anyway, for as stated earlier a line has been drawn by God Himself between the wise and the foolish. There is no changing this until they are left behind and see the Truth.

There are even those that at this time who go around giving false teaching. They act like we are in the tribulation as we speak, or that we must endure the entire tribulation. However, this is not supported by the Word of God itself. Just like there are those that say that there is only one rapture. Again a false teaching that leads people into damnation instead of salvation, that encourages them to continue to live in sin. However, as I said they can’t truly fix this until after they find themselves left behind when the tribulation truly does begin.

Once again for those that don’t understand. The word “tribulation” means a retribution for those that are the enemy of the one punishing them. This means that ALL that are left within the tribulation ARE ALL enemies of God Himself. Especially those that that profess to being “Christian,” which is why the first three and a half years will be so torturous for the “foolish bridesmaids.”  They will face starvation. Lose their homes. Be turned in by their family and friends and then executed by beheading.

They are sealed into this fate and there is nothing they can do the change this fate all because of the “midnight cry” on September 10th, 2025. They must become like John the Baptist. Wearing rags and teaching the Truth until the day they are martyred. For that is what we are commanded to do by Christ Himself.

Luke 21:12-17 NKJV – But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons. You will be brought before kings and rulers for My name’s sake. But it will turn out for you as an occasion for testimony. Therefore settle it in your hearts not to meditate beforehand on what you will answer; for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to contradict or resist. You will be betrayed even by parents and brothers, relatives and friends; and they will put some of you to death. And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake.

This is the cost that the “foolish bridesmaids” must pay to redeem themselves in the sight of God through Jesus Christ.

Those that Wish Not to Accept the Truth

I can always tell when people don’t want to read about the Truth. They have established for themselves a specific parameter to work within their window of what they perceive to be salvation. God also knew this as born out throughout the entirety of the Bible. Especially when it came to the prophets.  I mean look at the last thing Isaiah wrote and then was sawn in two.

Isaiah 66:15-24 NKJV – For behold, the LORD will come with fire And with His chariots, like a whirlwind, To render His anger with fury, And His rebuke with flames of fire. For by fire and by His sword The LORD will judge all flesh; And the slain of the LORD shall be many. “Those who sanctify themselves and purify themselves, To go to the gardens After an idol in the midst, Eating swine’s flesh and the abomination and the mouse, Shall be consumed together,” says the LORD. “For I know their works and their thoughts. It shall be that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come and see My glory. I will set a sign among them; and those among them who escape I will send to the nations: to Tarshish and Pul and Lud, who draw the bow, and Tubal and Javan, to the coastlands afar off who have not heard My fame nor seen My glory. And they shall declare My glory among the Gentiles. Then they shall bring all your brethren for an offering to the LORD out of all nations, on horses and in chariots and in litters, on mules and on camels, to My holy mountain Jerusalem,” says the LORD, “as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the LORD. And I will also take some of them for priests and Levites,” says the LORD. “For as the new heavens and the new earth Which I will make shall remain before Me,” says the LORD, “So shall your descendants and your name remain. And it shall come to pass That from one New Moon to another, And from one Sabbath to another, All flesh shall come to worship before Me,” says the LORD. “And they shall go forth and look Upon the corpses of the men Who have transgressed against Me. For their worm does not die, And their fire is not quenched. They shall be an abhorrence to all flesh.

All because Isaiah made the king of Israel at that time see the Truth in himself by a prophecy not even fully meant for him, he had Isaiah killed. Why? Because some of what was described was occurring within the Israeli court at that time.

People just don’t want to hear the REAL TRUTH. They want to hear things that make them comfortable with how they are living, because they are content with how things are for them at this time. In a way I hit upon this if not more directly in my last blog post ( https://dreamwalker1960.com/2026/01/21/rebellion-but-who-is-really-being-rebelled-against/ ). Why? Because I showed that both sides in the USA were both in the wrong in their behavior. However, I also showed that those resorting to violence and those that supported this violence. Even if in their eyes they not only saw themselves as righteous, but also supported by God…….. weren’t. In fact I showed that all those described in Romans 1:18-32 were totally and completely enemies of God. Making them the goats destined to the last verse of Isaiah 66:

Isaiah 66:24 NKJV – “And they shall go forth and look Upon the corpses of the men Who have transgressed against Me. For their worm does not die, And their fire is not quenched. They shall be an abhorrence to all flesh.

That is unless they decide to truly seek after God through Jesus Christ and seek true salvation. However, odds are they will do nothing because that would mean they must end the existence they have created for themselves. Which means they are their own “god.” Which is why they refuse to accept the parts of the Bible which says they will not be welcome into heaven, which leaves only one other destination. The one described a moment ago in the last verse of the book of Isaiah.

Recently I heard. “In my next life I want my body to be such and such a way.” This shows that this person is their own “god.” For they are dictating conditions. This person also professes to being a “Christian,” however, they do not fit the mold established by those described in Romans 1. Any who are a true disciple of Christ do not dictate to God, but bow in fear and reverence to God through Jesus Christ.

Part of true growth in seeking sanctification, which occurs once we bend our will to God though Jesus Christ, is to accept that we are wrong. We have been taught wrong and we may be living in sin without even realizing it because we refuse to study and accept the Word of God as LAW. Not suggestions or opinions but LAW. If we are not to do a certain thing we do not do this thing. A prime example: where and when we are to pray.

A commandment from Jesus Christ:

Matthew 6:5-6 NKJV – “And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.

A very simple command NEVER pray in public which includes inside a church.

Again, people will say: “What about: Acts 1:14 NKJV – These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brother.”

Oh you mean that time when Peter made all the disciples sin against God by breaking the commandment given in Matthew 6 and then on top of that throwing lots to pick a replacement for Judas when Christ said clearly:

Acts 1:7-8 NKJV  And He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority. But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”

However, the Holy Spirit didn’t descend upon them until the very next chapter of Acts. Thus, they did not listen to or obey Christ for their own glory as men. Meaning they were worshiping themselves and not God nor His Son their Savior just because He was no longer with them. So go ahead emulate sin and not a commandment given by Christ Himself. Because to you it is just a suggestion not LAW. Thus, proving my point completely. For if you did acknowledge it as law you would obey and there would be no pray in any church or synagogue.

I know these are hard Truths, but they are all backed by the Word of God and so are required to be listened to and learned. However, I already know for the most part they are being laughed off, ignored and scoffed at. Truly sad.

Why Sad? Because these verses become so very and completely true:

2 Peter 2:1-22 NKJV – But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed. By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber. For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment; and did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly; and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly; and delivered righteous Lot, who was oppressed by the filthy conduct of the wicked (for that righteous man, dwelling among them, tormented his righteous soul from day to day by seeing and hearing their lawless deeds)— then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations and to reserve the unjust under punishment for the day of judgment, and especially those who walk according to the flesh in the lust of uncleanness and despise authority. They are presumptuous, self-willed. They are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries, whereas angels, who are greater in power and might, do not bring a reviling accusation against them before the Lord. But these, like natural brute beasts made to be caught and destroyed, speak evil of the things they do not understand, and will utterly perish in their own corruption, and will receive the wages of unrighteousness, as those who count it pleasure to carouse in the daytime. They are spots and blemishes, carousing in their own deceptions while they feast with you, having eyes full of adultery and that cannot cease from sin, enticing unstable souls. They have a heart trained in covetous practices, and are accursed children. They have forsaken the right way and gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; but he was rebuked for his iniquity: a dumb donkey speaking with a man’s voice restrained the madness of the prophet. These are wells without water, clouds carried by a tempest, for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever. For when they speak great swelling words of emptiness, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through lewdness, the ones who have actually escaped from those who live in error. While they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption; for by whom a person is overcome, by him also he is brought into bondage. 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.”

Rebellion? But Who is Really Being Rebelled Against

Now the verses I am about to share with those reading this will be misconstrued by most. This is why I plan on giving a teaching upon these verses.

There is a large amount of turmoil going on in the US at this time. Now many think they are right. I will not claim which side is right or wrong. I will let the Word of God settle that, for it can.

For we must understand an important fact that God demands of those that profess to being His followers:

Titus 3:1 NKJV – Remind them to be subject to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work,

When people crossed the boarder without doing it legally, they broke this commandment from God. Simply they willingly chose to rebel against God. When they stole money from the government, they decided to rebel even further from God making themselves the friends of the world.

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.

The illegals have made themselves the enemies of God. They did it all on their own and those supporting them have joined them and they are described in Romans chapter 1 verses 18-32. This description also is made clear that they have chosen to be the enemies of God. This also opens the door to the verses which I first mentioned at beginning of this message.

1 John 4:20-21 NKJV – If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.

Now this applies to both sides. However, those that are described in Romans, I never expect them to understand this. They honestly don’t even truly accept God nor His Son Jesus Christ.

This is for those that actually try and call themselves “Christian.” Now, again, I know there are those that are described in Romans 1 that actually believe they are Christian. Yet as we have already shown they are actually the enemies of God no matter what they may think or believe. This is the sad truth. A truth they may never accept, but still the truth.

As to those that are truly trying to pursue a relationship with God through Jesus Christ. It is time to learn. Even though those described in Romans 1 believe they are doing right. We know without a doubt they have already chosen the world. However, those that seek to follow Christ are to treat all other humans as our brothers and sisters.

Now this doesn’t mean allow them to stay in this country illegally. This doesn’t mean support them. We are told by the Word of God to obey the laws of the land we live in. Once again:

Titus 3:1 NKJV – Remind them to be subject to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work,

Why is this?

Daniel 2:21 NKJV – And He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise And knowledge to those who have understanding.

Daniel 4:17 NKJV – ‘This decision is by the decree of the watchers, And the sentence by the word of the holy ones, In order that the living may know That the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, Gives it to whomever He will, And sets over it the lowest of men.’

So, understand, God placed both Biden and Trump into the office of president.

You will note how people have behaved differently under these presidents. Those that cause riots and destruction just because they didn’t or don’t like Trump fulfill the description given in Romans 1, which speaks volumes. Those that grumped and complained but didn’t resort to violence walked closer to following God through Jesus Christ during the Biden years.

But I have gotten off track.

Therefore, those that are fighting against the rule of law of the nation no matter their public standing in or out of government, are showing where they stand with God. More accurately showing they are enemies of God. Because God placed who is in power of all the nations on this earth. All with the purpose of guiding the world towards the return of Christ. Of separating the sheep, those that follow Christ, from the goats, those described in Romans 1.

It is the responsibility of those professing to being a follower of Christ to treat their follow humans with respect. It is also the responsibility of those following Christ to make sure the rule of law is followed. Not only for the nation that we live within. But also the commandments we are instructed to follow within the Word of God.

The verses this study is about makes a very clear statement.

“If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?”

Many say they are followers of Christ, yet they are described in Romans 1. Within this description is acts of violence. They will accuse those that are of authority. Those following and acting upon the law of the land as being those that are violent. Since they are acting within the law of the land they are not the ones that are truly violent. Those that attack them. Those that storm churches. It is they that are the ones being violent. For that is the path they have chosen to walk upon.

Within the next few years there will be those that come to see the Truth. It is they that I am writing this for. They will come to see the light of God though Jesus Christ. They must amend their ways and seek to know God through Jesus Christ, which can only be found within the Word of God. They must truly seek to study it. Not just read it.

As for those that are the lukewarm. You must come to accept that when the call of Christ first comes you will find yourself left behind. Don’t fully turn away from God. However, learn for your mistake and realize that you screwed up big time. Otherwise you wouldn’t have been left behind. Also realize that just because you have been left behind you are not one of the goats yet, but your path is heading in that direction unless you fix your errors.

Refuse the mark of the beast. This goes for both groups reading this. For once you accept the mark of the beast you have sealed your fate to eternal damnation. Also realize that the United States will no longer exist once we get to the middle of the tribulation.

Those that have been lying to those that are now illegal  in the United States shows their ignorance of the Truth of the Word of God. Why make millions of people come to a nation that will be destroyed by the eruption of a super volcano in just a few year just shows how truly ignorant they are to the Truth.

They think that life is going to just continue on as it is now. It is truly and completely sad. So sad that I am not going to write another word today.
