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.

Discussion

To begin this series. We must start with those that are now elderly so they can awaken to the Truth. For they need to hear this and need to face where they will stand when they awaken before the Lord.

2 Corinthians 5:1-8 NKJV – For we know that if our earthly house, this tent, is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven, if indeed, having been clothed, we shall not be found naked. For we who are in this tent groan, being burdened, not because we want to be unclothed, but further clothed, that mortality may be swallowed up by life. Now He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who also has given us the Spirit as a guarantee. So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. For we walk by faith, not by sight. We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.

Understanding this Truth is one of the cornerstones of a follower of Christ. This is one of the things many don’t understand or more accurately wish to acknowledge.

I look on those the celebrate reaching being older than one hundred years of earthly age. Yet in our calling as servants of Christ we are to spread and teach the Word of God. If someone can accomplish this at this age. Then more glory there is to God and allow their life to continue.

However, if they have become a burden to those they claim to love. Why are they not groaning to stand in the presence of God? That is a question that must be asked by those that fall into this area.

Most don’t truly understand the will of God. This has been proven since before Christ walked this earth.

In the Great Depression God passed a judgement upon the United States of America. In this time, He forced people to live as He truly desired of them. To live a needs-only lifestyle.

They had barely enough food to survive but had clothing upon their bodies. They however, did not learn their lesson. Instead of embracing this lifestyle. Most went the entirely different way.

They sought after and embraced the gathering of earthly possessions. All because they suffered. They did without.  Because their wants and desires had been denied them. They embraced the earthly and gave God the middle finger. They chose the world over the Godly and the spreading of the True Gospel. All for their own wants, lusts and desires.

However, due to religion not true belief in God. They believe they are servants of God. When they confess for all to see that they worship what is of the world and ARE of the world and not of God. They say “praise glory to God through Jesus Christ.” But keep most their earthly wealth for their own covetous wants and desires. The Bible makes it very clear for all to see.

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.

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.

Because of their worship of mammon, which is defined as riches, money, possessions and property. They live in darkness, yet they think it is light. Yet how does the verse go?

Matthew 6:23 NKJV -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!

“If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!”

This is where many now live that are beyond their usefulness to God. They cling to this earthly life. Struggling to not let go of it. They fear their earthly death. Why fear it if they groan to stand in the presence of God?

Because their soul knows the truth. That they are not worthy to stand in the presence of God. They have become friends of the world.

James 4:4-5 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. Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, “The Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealously”?

The Spirit that yearns jealously is yearning to stand in the presence of God. If someone fights against this yearning. If they hold dearly to this earthly life this again proclaims to the world that they fear standing before God. In the fifth letter in the book of Revelation the Glorified Christ speaks to those that think this way.

Revelation 3:1-6 NKJV – “And to the angel of the church in Sardis write, ‘These things says He who has the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars: “I know your works, that you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead. Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die, for I have not found your works perfect before God. Remember therefore how you have received and heard; hold fast and repent. Therefore if you will not watch, I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you. You have a few names even in Sardis who have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with Me in white, for they are worthy. He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life; but I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels. “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” ‘

They cling to this earthly life because their soul knows that their name has been blotted out of the Book of Life. They cling to this life so strongly because they wish to deny this truth:

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

God through Jesus Christ tells them they can escape this. All they need to do is repent. Confess for all to hear that they lived a covetous lifestyle. That they have lived sinfully against the will of God. That they lived only for themselves and treated everything about them wrongly for they cling now to earthly life out of fear of God and damnation.

Once this is done and they submit to being kind to their caregivers. Then willing embrace a desire to groan to be in the presence of God. Then they do their best to praise God in every opportunity placing all others before themselves. Then when the release from this earthly life does occur, they will be truly joyous to stand in the presence of God.

I walked the halls of a retirement home. I have observed the behavior of those that also walk down them. I see how they behave and think. They see all revolving around themselves. Many embraces believes and behavior that goes against the teachings found within the Bible. However, they think and believe they are obedient follows of God through Christ.

In Romans the Christians that think this way are discussed within this letter. I will show the beginning of this. Then I will list from Chapter one the sins they support and echo.

Romans 2:1-11 NLT – You may think you can condemn such people, but you are just as bad, and you have no excuse! When you say they are wicked and should be punished, you are condemning yourself, for you who judge others do these very same things. And we know that God, in his justice, will punish anyone who does such things. Since you judge others for doing these things, why do you think you can avoid God’s judgment when you do the same things? Don’t you see how wonderfully kind, tolerant, and patient God is with you? Does this mean nothing to you? Can’t you see that his kindness is intended to turn you from your sin? But because you are stubborn and refuse to turn from your sin, you are storing up terrible punishment for yourself. For a day of anger is coming, when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed. He will judge everyone according to what they have done. He will give eternal life to those who keep on doing good, seeking after the glory and honor and immortality that God offers. But he will pour out his anger and wrath on those who live for themselves, who refuse to obey the truth and instead live lives of wickedness. There will be trouble and calamity for everyone who keeps on doing what is evil—for the Jew first and also for the Gentile. But there will be glory and honor and peace from God for all who do good—for the Jew first and also for the Gentile. For God does not show favoritism.

Now the sins that is referenced in the statement “for you who judge others do these very same things.”

Romans 1:28-32 NKJV – And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.

Most of those people will say they have not nor ever have done these sins. However, note:

“knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.”

Someone told me recently while watching a show on how real murders are solved said this:

“I never knew there was so many murders in this nation.”

This is called willful ignorance. It is defined as someone that chooses not to educate themselves on important issues or who actively resist learning new information that contradicts their beliefs.

Their world revolves within their own personal world they have created around themselves. Focused upon how they live this earthly life not upon gaining true disciples for Christ and living a needs-only lifestyle. They lived a life that was solely focused upon their own wants and desires. A lifestyle that led to the greatest deterioration of Christianity in decades if not centuries.

However, in this. I believe it is as it was designed by God. However, people. Each person still has a duty not only to God, but in themselves about how they will have a relationship with Him through Jesus Christ. Most now choose the ways, wants and desires of the world. In strong part due to how these elderly raised, taught or did teach the following generations. Which is why they struggle to stay here instead of groan to be in the presence of God.

Many think that they did good teaching people a few Bible verses instead of teaching them how to live a lifestyle. All teaching people a few verses did was teach hypocrisy not how to live a God-fearing lifestyle. Key elements that should have been taught. Give in secret. Pray in secret. Fast in secret and downsize. Using most our earthly wealth to help the poor and spread the Word of God.

God Bless

Blog for Podcast #239 (Events that are Soon to Occur)

Discussion

An understanding of events that are soon to occur is required. Most don’t know, care or are even concerned about it. Most of these that have this mentality believe they are exempt, special and will find themselves removed from these events. However, this is the furthest thing from the Truth.

Romans 2:11 NLT – For God does not show favoritism.

Why?

Because most are the lukewarm that now profess to calling themselves “Christian.” How I know this is because I look about me and see it clearly. Those that wish to reject this deny the Words spoken by the Glorified Jesus Christ.

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—

They say: “I am rich, have become wealthy and have need of nothing.” This is most of those that now profess to being “Christian.” For they refuse to downsize as command by Christ as I have taught multiple times in the past, but especially in podcasts #237 and 238 intitled “Why and How to Downsize.” Therefore, I will not dwell upon it here, but just understand that most that now profess to being “Christian” WILL find themselves left behind and must endure the first three and a half years of the Tribulation.

What is said next in the letter to the Laodiceans is important. For this is what will be required by those that are left behind to redeem themselves.

Revelation 3:18-19 NKJV – I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent.

To help in this repentance all must understand that within the first three and a half years what will occur in heaven will be the breaking of the seals. There are seven seals. However, only six will be broken in the first half of the tribulation.

Those that are within the United States though will not have to worry about the second half of the seven years. Not because they are so-called Christian, but as has been established in other teachings. The United States has become the earthly city of Babylon, and this nations fate is shown not only in chapter eighteen of the book of Revelation. But also in the breaking of the sixth seal. Therefore let us look to this seal now:

Revelation 6:12-17 NKJV – I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood. And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind. Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place. And the kings of the earth, the great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains, and said to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”

The great earthquake which will be global will be the eruption of the Yellowstone super volcano. It will completely devastate the United States as well as parts of Canada and Mexico and most within it will die quickly. However, not all as shown here.

Revelation 18:8 NKJV – Therefore her plagues will come in one day—death and mourning and famine. And she will be utterly burned with fire, for strong is the Lord God who judges her.

“death and mourning and famine.”

So, what will transpire in these ruins of this nation is of no concern to the rest of the world. For this makes it so prophecy can be fulfilled and centered about the nation of Israel, which explains why there is no mention of countries on the other side of the ocean within the Bible for they have in one day been removed due to their willful sins against their Creator and His Son Jesus Christ by not downsizing and using most their earthly wealth to help those in need and the spreading of the Word of God.

This explains why the sun becomes black as a sackcloth of hair, and the moon like blood. For the ash cloud caused by the eruption of Yellowstone will cover the entire earth.

This happens just at the end of the of the first three and half years of the tribulation. This is why the antichrist will enter the third temple and desecrate it.

It is at this time that the last Christian rapture occurs and is uncountable. For most that called themselves “Christian” before the first rapture, which is when Christ will come as a thief in the night, will have been left behind and so sought to repent to God. This first three and a half years will also cause most to see the Truth and come to accept Jesus Christ as their Savior. Which is why the last Christian rapture is uncountable.

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.”

Note this is after the sixth seal is broken and before the seventh is broken. What occurs from the seventh seal onward is for those that rejected God and took the mark as well as worship the antichrist. It is also for those of the tribes of Israel. This is part of their punishment for rejecting Jesus Christ as their Messiah when He walked amongst them two thousand years ago.

Many false teachers say that Christians will be present even after the temple is defiled by the antichrist. That they will be present when the plagues and earthly destruction that is caused by the seven trumpets takes place. As well as the seven bowls. However, there is nothing that supports this. There is however, much that supports that the twelve tribes of Israel will be present.

Now understand this. In the fourteenth chapter of Revelation angels will fly through the heavens giving a message.

Revelation 14:6-13 NKJV – Then I saw another angel flying in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach to those who dwell on the earth to every nation, tribe, tongue, and people— saying with a loud voice, “Fear God and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judgment has come; and worship Him who made heaven and earth, the sea and springs of water.” And another angel followed, saying, “Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.” Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.” Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus. Then I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, “Write: ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.’ ” “Yes,” says the Spirit, “that they may rest from their labors, and their works follow them.”

This message is not to help people come to the Lord, for the Holy Spirit has been removed from the face of the earth. This message is for the tribes of Israel. It is to help them till their rapture.

For clarification about the Holy Ghost we listen to this verse.

2 Thessalonians 2:7 NKJV – For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way.

These messengers flying through the air giving this message for ALL must hear the Truth. Many, even those that profess to being “Christian” at this very moment we now live in have never heard the True Gospel. That is why they are left behind. They however, will seek the knowledge of the Truth in the first three and a half years and will come to know the Truth.

Those that are left after the Holy Spirit is removed must hear the Truth as well, however they are beyond salvation, for salvation can only be achieved with the Holy Ghost. Which is also why the two prophets will walks amongst them teaching the Truth, that the Truth of the Word of God can been heard by all even those that took the mark. This makes it so none can say they never heard the Truth of the Word of God.

The truth of this is seen in these verses from the flying angels:

“And another angel followed, saying, “Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.”

“Babylon is fallen, is fallen.” As was discussed earlier this occurs when the sixth seal is broken at the middle of the tribulation and cause the sun and the moon to darken.

It is through events like this that will enable all of humanity to do this:

Philippians 2:9-11 NKJV – Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

God Bless

Discussion

Romans 6:15-23 NKJV – What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not! Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness? But God be thanked that though you were slaves of sin, yet you obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine to which you were delivered. And having been set free from sin, you became slaves of righteousness. I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you presented your members as slaves of uncleanness, and of lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves of righteousness for holiness. For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. What fruit did you have then in the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death. But now having been set free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit to holiness, and the end, everlasting life. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

I was reminded of these verses by the music lyrics of the song “Bittersweet Symphony” by the Verse. In that song this line is heard:

“Tryna make ends meet You’re a slave to money then you die.”

Returning to the Bible Christ teaches this:

Matthew 6:24 NKJV – “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.

Mammon is defined as riches, money, possessions and property.

This is what most especially those that profess to being “Christian” make their master. This is who they are enslaved to. This is the way it has been for thousands of years. We even see it on display in the Word of God. I will give you an example that most should take to heart at this very moment.

Luke 12:13-34 NKJV – Then one from the crowd said to Him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.” But He said to him, “Man, who made Me a judge or an arbitrator over you?” And He said to them, “Take heed and beware of covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of the things he possesses.” Then He spoke a parable to them, saying: “The ground of a certain rich man yielded plentifully. And he thought within himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, since I have no room to store my crops?’ So he said, ‘I will do this: I will pull down my barns and build greater, and there I will store all my crops and my goods. And I will say to my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years; take your ease; eat, drink, and be merry.” ‘ But God said to him, ‘Fool! This night your soul will be required of you; then whose will those things be which you have provided?’ “So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.” Then He said to His disciples, “Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; nor about the body, what you will put on. Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing. Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap, which have neither storehouse nor barn; and God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds? And which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? If you then are not able to do the least, why are you anxious for the rest? Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. If then God so clothes the grass, which today is in the field and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith? “And do not seek what you should eat or what you should drink, nor have an anxious mind. For all these things the nations of the world seek after, and your Father knows that you need these things. But seek the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you. “Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Sell what you have and give alms; provide yourselves money bags which do not grow old, a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches nor moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

The core element to this teaching is found at the very end of these verses.

“Sell what you have and give alms; provide yourselves money bags which do not grow old, a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches nor moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”

“Sell what you have and give alms.”

This is a commandment from Christ.

You see you have been a slave to mammon. You have too much that is earthly as noted here in these verses from 1 John:

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.

We are to be content with clothing and food as shown here:

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.

Therefore, all who profess to being a follower of Jesus Christ is commanded to downsize. They do this by getting rid of their mammon which they have accumulated showing all they live in and are slaves to the sin of materialism.

When you get rid of these accesses do not seek profit from them. Give them to charities. Goodwill, Salvation Army or any thrift shop that shows they use their income to help those in need. For to seek to gain profit from sin is tainted due to the fact that they come from sin. Expect to loss money for money is sin.

Do not seek to own property unless you can use said property to help those in need. Look to the second chapter of Acts.

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.

Measure the size of your household. If you have children, then find a place large enough to give them shelter as well. However, once the children leave. Find someplace smaller that suits the needs of you or if you are married you and your other half. Never own or seek to own. Give away all your earthly goods that are not a necessity. Truely live a needs-only lifestyle.

If you have a special need due to a medical condition that is a need. However, don’t use it as an excuse to own or accumulate mammon as many do.

Christ makes it very clear more than once we are not to seek mammon. We have already shown two so far. However, we will add to this.

Matthew 6:19-21 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.

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.

Seeking after mammon is what is highly esteemed amongst those of the world. As I have taught in the past. Those that seek what is esteemed are seen as an abomination in the sight of God. Being seen as an abomination is being seen as an equal to the antichrist. Someone that is destined for the lake of fire.

This is why it is so important to downsize. And expect no earthly profit as you do so. This is why Christ says this to the young rich man:

Mark 10:17-21 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.”

However, what is the response to this command by Christ Himself to this man.

Mark 10:22 NKJV – But he was sad at this word, and went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.

This is how most now act and respond. Many even believe it is not required by them. This is because Christ is soon to return. What most don’t realize is the seven letters in the second and third chapter of Revelation are not just concurrent but are also chronological. The first represents those of the early church. While the last letter, the letter to Laodicea is how those that professing to being “Christian” at this very moment act and behave. Therefore, let us hear this letter.

Revelation 3:15-19 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— I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent.

“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—“

To be zealous and repent is to downsize quickly and seek no profit from you living in sin. For to profit from sin is to seek damnation in the lake of fire. Instead of storing up treasures in heaven. Get rid of your mammon and do not seek to profit from it for it is evil and a sin.

God Bless

Discussion

Now we have to come to an understanding people. There are three camps within the USA at this time. Those that deny God and believe they have a moral right to dictate to others how to live their lives so that they can live as they want to live. Then there are those that have been celebrating the last few weeks due to the election of Trump back into the office of the president of the USA just so they can have their mammon. Those that live to celebrate the soon return of their earthly income so they can get more of their possessions and property. Then we have the smallest group. Those that wish to follow Jesus Christ as their Savior and so spread the Word of God and live a needs-only lifestyle. Living off the least of their earthly income and using the majority to help those in need and to continue in teaching that Jesus Christ is soon to return.

As to the second group there are many that think they are amongst the last group. That is a lie, and they show it by keeping and seeking after mammon. They think they are in the light when in reality they are in darkness. Thus making themselves an abomination in the sight of God.

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.

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.

As to those that deny God outright. They are also mentioned in the Bible. To be exact. In the first chapter on the letter to the Romans.

Romans 1:18-32 NKJV – For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things. Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.

Think now folks. Think hard. Has there not been malicious behavior. Has there not been whispers, backbiting, unforgiveness? Well? Take a hard look at your own way of thinking. Your own behavior for the last few weeks. Has there not been calls of racism of looking down upon women by certain parties? Has not many women shaved their hair and said they would deny their husbands what they are not just by duty but out of love to their husbands to offer unto them.

As to those that worship possession, property and money, which is how mammon is defined. Has there not been this behavior within your own group as well? Well? Ok now.

You of the first two groups need to start to listen and take the blinders off your eyes. By the way. The news media is a form of blinder. Turn off the stupid TV. Stop listening to the news. Yes, I am speaking to both groups.

Next go and get a Bible if you don’t have one. If you do have one. If it is an NIV Bible throw it in the trash. Then Go out and get a real Bible. KJV or if you must a NKJV. Why throw out the NIV? Because it is a false gospel. Yes, the entire book is filled with lies and omissions. ANYTHING filled with lies and omissions becomes a false gospel and those that made it fall under the curses given to those that do such a thing in Galatians chapter one.

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.

Those that made the NIV created a people pleasing message and so are twice cursed to damnation. I didn’t say it. The Holy Spirit did through the apostle Paul. Any who challenge this deny the Word of God and if you deny the Word of God, you also deny your salvation.

John 1:1-3 NKJV – In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.

Matthew 10:33 NKJV – But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.

Now we come to the next important step. If you profess to being “Christian.” REPENT!

If you have denied there is a God and only humans are the greatest beings in existence. Forget you ever thought like that and then ask Jesus Christ to become your Savior. For if you truly desire eternal life, you MUST do this.

Now a special note to those that say there is no God and that they cannot attain eternal life, but the following generations of humanity will achieve a higher lifeform that will live forever. This is another lie.

Right now, right this moment all humanity will have eternal life. A higher lifeform. A body that will last for billions upon billions of years. The only difference will be each person’s destination. For there are only two destinations. One that will focus upon True life, the other will be suffering in eternal pain.

Now stop getting upset and making false accusations. Yes, I am talking to those that just started saying that is why God is not real for no being would intentionally send people to eternal suffering.

The thing is there are such beings. You know how you can find them. Look in a mirror and look hard. For that being is yourself. And it is you that you are damning if you don’t listen to what is being said right now.

We can no longer put off for tomorrow what must be done right at this very moment. Your eternal life depends on it.

What else is required?

Following the laws of the land that do not go against what is taught in the Bible and speaking of the Bible. Following all the commandments that were not removed by the cross.

When it comes to following the laws of the land. One that most refuse to follow now. The speed limit. Also, the use of handicap placards. Most that use the placards actually don’t have a legitimate claim to use them. This is proven by the fact they don’t get handicap license plates. For there is no additional cost to get a handicap license plates. However, most pursue the placards. It is little things like this that show people are not members of the third group. The group that is to be hunted and hated, much like how many are responding to these words that have been written down and spoken today.

If you aren’t ignored. If you aren’t looked down upon. If you are not making people feel uncomfortable you are definitely not within the third group. Especially at this time. Especially by those that think they are returning to prosperity in a few months. It is this prosperity that will lead more to damnation than the way that those that deny God want to go. Those that wish to force their way of thinking upon others. That way actually could lead many to true Salvation. For those that are persecuted by those wishing to force their views upon them turn to God not deny Him. However, those that live in prosperity turn their backs upon God and worship the humans that brought them to their mammon.

This was shown and taught within the OT time and again to the tribes of Israel. For that is what the OT is. An operator’s manual for those that profess to being Christian. As well as following the laws within it that were not removed by the cross. By the way only the laws governing sacrifice were removed. For example the law that tell us not to get tattoos is still in effect for 1 in every 4 humans has a tattoo, which means it is of the world.

Romans 12:1-2 NKJV – I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

“And do not be conformed to this world.”

Then what follows these words:

“But be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”

Getting tatts is against the will of God. Disobeying the speed limit is not acceptable to God. Following the commands which start with the greatest commands are to be followed.

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

So don’t even attempt to throw out the slavery card or the racist card. For those that truly follow Christ treat all as they themselves wish to be treated. None would place themselves into slavery and degrade themselves due to another’s skin tone. So don’t even try to use that lame excuse, for it is truly an excuse made of true ignorance of the Word of God. Which is why it is so important to STUDY the Word of God for yourselves, and never take the word of others……. Even me.

Repent, accept Jesus Christ as your Savior. Downsize. Live a needs-only existence. Then spread the Word of God.

God Bless

Exodus 32:33 NKJV – And the LORD said to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against Me, I will blot him out of My book.

And what book is being referred to here? For that answer we look to the book of Revelation:

Revelation 3:1-5 NKJV – “And to the angel of the church in Sardis write, ‘These things says He who has the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars: “I know your works, that you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead. Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die, for I have not found your works perfect before God. Remember therefore how you have received and heard; hold fast and repent. Therefore if you will not watch, I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you. You have a few names even in Sardis who have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with Me in white, for they are worthy. He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life; but I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels.

“He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life.”

The book referred to in Exodus is the Book of Life. And shows that those that are written in the Book of Life can sin and in so doing can be removed from that very book.

A statement most especially those that profess to being “Christian” do not wish to hear. For to hear would mean they have lived a lie. A lie that they are favored by God Himself, for they are blessed beyond all belief with their earthly rewards.

Words that are saved in their minds. Words that shows they have no true knowledge of the Word of God. Nor, in most cases the True Word of God has never even been heard by their ears. So they do not know these words found within the Bible:

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.

Nor do they know or acknowledge these Word:

Romans 2:11 NLT – For God does not show favoritism.

Or these:

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.

For to acknowledge these Word spoken by the Holy Spirit unto those that penned the words to parchment would mean that they do not worship the True God of the Universe, but the god of this world.

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.

A god who rewards with what he has been power to give to all that worship him.

Luke 4:6 NKJV – And the devil said to Him, “All this authority I will give You, and their glory; for this has been delivered to me, and I give it to whomever I wish.

Anger rises. Hatred for what has been spoken, what they have just read says they are not welcome into heaven. They say I, the messenger, am a liar. I show what the Word of God says, what the Holy Spirit instructed Paul to write down on parchment:

Galatians 5:19-21 NKJV – Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

The works of the flesh are…. Hatred…. Contentions…. Outbursts of wrath…. That those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Which means they have sinned against God as was made clear in Exodus:

“Whoever has sinned against Me, I will blot him out of My book.”

This shows that God does not show favoritism. That seeking after the world is to seek rewards from Satan Himself. Which brings the reality to the statement:

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.

Why should someone that has a huge house, fancy vehicles and clothing be rewarded with eternal life when they show where their heart is.

Matthew 6:19-21 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.

Those that seek after worldly treasures and rewards shows that their heart belongs to the one who rewarded them, which as the Bible has shown is not God the Creator of the universe, but the father of all lies.

John 8:44 NKJV – You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.

His lies say to those that listen that they can have it all and they will be welcomed into heaven. This is when he murders those that listen. For it is made clear that what they seek after is what all men seek after. What they esteem.

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.

As I have taught multiple times in the past. The word “abomination” is used six times in the NT. Four of those times it describes the antichrist and those that willingly follow that person. Therefore, those that seek after earthly riches, money, possessions and property follow the antichrist’s mentality and so are worthy to be removed from the Book of Life. For they are the lukewarm.

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—

When they are vomited from the Body of Christ they are blotted out of the Book of Life. Again, people don’t want to hear this and blame the messenger. All I have done is show the Word of God. The dictation of the Holy Spirit whose name is Jesus Christ.

If what you have heard angers or upsets, it is because it is the Truth. Yes, that means all you have heard before, from other humans that do not preach this Truth was a lie. That is obvious by the fact that you still seek after what the world seeks after. The fact that it disturbed you. That is not my fault.

The problem is the lies have become so ingrained into the world that no one really wants to hear what is real. Because for centuries people have been born, lived and then died in the lie of the world. Many thinking they have lived a Godly life. However, since they sought after money, riches, property and possessions they led a life of lies that doesn’t lead to heaven, but to eternal death. This is why Jesus Christ said this:

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.

Then shortly later 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!’

When you argue against these Truths with vigor you are in essence denying Jesus Christ publicly.

Matthew 10:33 NKJV – But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.

When Jesus Christ denies you to his Father, He is also blotting your name form the Book of Life.

If this makes you laugh, or not think this is the Truth then you have shown all that God is not within you, nor most likely never was. Therefore, the verse from John chapter eight fully applies to you. So, I will restate it.

John 8:44 NKJV – You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.

And what is the fate of those that have their names no longer 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.

God Bless

Discussion

I find it interesting when Hollywood makes movies about people that call themselves “Christian.” I don’t mean the way they show the snobbery and uppishness that is portrayed in most side characters in modern movies and TV shows. But the main protagonist of a movie. I have two examples. The movies “Keys to the Kingdom” (1944) and “Hacksaw Ridge.” (2016)

In both these films they pick a group that teaches dissension. That these groups are the only way to heaven. As you can tell from the way I have worded things, these are two different groups. For the first movie it is Catholicism. For the second movie it is the Seventh Day Adventist.

I could go into the problems with these two groups. However, most would tune it out or just stop reading or listening. I am not here to go through a rehash of these issues about these groups, but about Hollywood. The movie industry. It was their choice to pick from these two groups. These two groups teach that they are the only way to heaven.

Now here I will get a different type of protest. Being that Christianity teaches that the only way to heaven is through Jesus Christ. As witnessed here:

John 14:6 NKJV – Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

Again, that is not the purpose of today’s teaching.

It is this reality that they picked these two groups. The mere fact that they did pick them still turns people away from the Truth. They will run to Catholicism, they will run to the Seventh Day Adventist, but not God. They run to man-made doctrines and teachings and not the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Now in both these movies they show the protagonist and someone that had been humbled. I will go a step further. I say that they show someone that is a true follower of Christ.

Yes, you heard me correctly, as once again confusion rears its head at what was just said.

If people would actually study the Bible for themselves. They would learn that what I just said has more bearing upon the Truth than what those in Hollywood would have wished to occur. Or yet another way to look at it. When teaching lies, they must have elements of truth shine through so that their lie will be a sweet taste upon the minds of those watching these films.

In both movies the lead character shows more true discipleship to Jesus Christ than anyone in the film or those watching. The thing is most don’t even register this truth, but if they do, they will seek it within the two man-made religions offered in these films.

Now I wish to make a point here. It will also show that how you look at the Word of God in a particular issue in some cases may give a view of the truth. Again, that many don’t wish to hear.

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.

I honestly believe, by the mere fact that Christianity still exists at all is due to that fact of those that have taken the narrow path for the last two thousand years. The majority of these years was under the manipulation of the Catholic Church. Yet Christianity still survived and surfaced. This was seen when Martin Luther started the Reformation nearly 1100 years after the Catholic Church came to power and made it illegal for the commoner to even read a Bible.

Are you starting to see? Are you starting to understand?

Most are now seeing how corrupt Hollywood is.

Allow me to give an example. Most in Hollywood use their “fame” to dictate to those that watch their films or TV shows. I remember when it was the unwritten law that those that performed as actors kept their personal lives separate from their roles. And thus, kept them secret. A prime example. Rock Hudson. A leading actor that most respected and liked his performances. He was the lead in many romance films. He even played a minister that was also a pilot in the Air Force, in a film I could have used as another example. However, due to what is about to be said it was best I didn’t. For it was revealed upon his death that in reality he was a homosexual and had a male partner most his life. The only reason this became known was because he died of AIDS. This news shocked the entire world. Now those that keep their personal lives and thoughts to themselves are the exception instead of the norm as it once had been.

This is the way Hollywood works though. It is an industry built around stories. Fiction. Lies. It encourages the worship of humanity. To cause those watching to esteem and emulate the protagonist. What does the Bible say about this esteeming?

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.”

Hollywood teachs people to become an abomination to God. It encourages them to seek after mammon. What is mammon?

Mammon – G3126 – mamónas – riches, money, possessions, property.

Mammon is that which is highly esteemed among men and especially those within the movie and TV industry. Just look at the theme of movies through the years. A core element in many is the seeking after the accumulation of mammon.  To have those watching to picking mammon over what is Godly.

Therefore, the majority of “entertainment” that is presented on the big screen and for that matter: the little screen in your houses.  These are designed to turn you from God. They teach those watching to glorify humans, never God. Also to distract you from reading the Word of God.

This verse makes it very clear so I will restate it.

Luke 16:13 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.”

The movie and television industry teaches and promotes mammon. Therefore, those presented in this industry can never serve God. Why never? Because it is made clear those in this industry serve and are loyal to mammon. Therefore, they despise God and all that goes with Him. This is seen in many ways if you just truly look and listen.

Now look at this verse from the Bible and place those being talked to here as those that are within the Hollywood industry.

John 8:44 NKJV – You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.

By reinforcing that seeking after mammon those in this industry murder millions upon millions. Leading them to eternal damnation.

Look to 2 Peter.

2 Peter 2:1-19 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.

Bondage that leads to eternal death. AKA murder of the soul for all eternity. Joining Satan and all that embrace becoming an abomination in the sight of the Lord through Jesus Christ.

“You are short sighted.”

This is one of those statements someone makes to many that have embraced their Christian faith. They say that following the Bible limits you. That there is more to the world than what can be found within the Bible. It would be laughable if it weren’t so sad.

When someone accepts Jesus Christ as their Savior and strive to be a reflection of Him, by following the teachings within the Bible, does not limit them. They actually expands their horizons.

Many that embrace science fiction are those searching for a future that will have amazement and wonders. They seek after teleportation, terraforming, celestial phenomena, dinosaurs, higher beings, including ascension into a higher life form, immortality, multiple dimensions, creation.

They seek after these things because they wish to expand their horizons and seek after a wondrous reality if not for them, but for their children, or their children, or their children. To me this is true short sightedness. Even though they do seek after these things they feel they are unattainable to them. That their life is meaningless to the point that they wish to tear down society as it now stands to hurry the arrival of this new phenomenal world that is yet to be. This is true short sightedness. This is not what those that truly understand their belief in God expect or accept.

Through the Bible they know these things have taken place, are taking place and will take place: terraforming, celestial phenomena, dinosaurs, higher beings, including ascension into a higher life form; immortality, multiple dimensions, creation. What is most important is that they themselves can be an eternal witness to these very things and are themselves promised to ascend into higher and immortal beings as servants of the One who created it all. The Lord God Almighty.

The Lord God that is within the alternate dimension, or reality if you like. That is called Heaven. Whose Son after His resurrection appeared out of nowhere into a locked room twice.

So who is in reality short sighted? The person that thinks only of today, tomorrow, this temporal life span of up to about one hundred years. Or the person that turns to God and His Son and plans for their life to come in their ascended and immortal bodies that all humanity is promised to have. A life that will last billions upon billions of years. A life that will be filled with wonder and sights so beautiful it will put all the beauty of this planet to shame.

For those that are the true short sighted though. Theirs is not this spectacular. Theirs is to be left in one place, one location, in continual pain and mental and physical torment. All due to their true short-sighted beliefs that the Bible is nothing but a book to be changed to their temporal whims and desires. Why? Because they wish to live in their personal version of happiness now, not when God has promised it to them in the enteral life to come. How truly sorrowing it is to me to write these words, for my love for my neighbor is for them to accept Jesus Christ and to stop living in sin. For as long as they seek temporal rewards, they have sealed their own fate themselves, and they have only themselves to blame.

Let us look at these things that are found within Science Fiction that appeals to those that wish to deny the existence of God.

Teleportation

Genesis 19:16 KJV – And while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; the LORD being merciful unto him: and they brought him forth, and set him without the city.

Acts 8:39-40 KJV – And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing. But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.

In the first example we see Lot and his family removed from their house and taken to the gates of Sodom. In the second example we see Phillp under orders of the Holy Spirit to go to a road that goes from Jerusalem to Gaza. From this road after baptizing the Ethiopian he is taken to Azotus. This is a distance of approximately twenty miles from the road to Gaza over undefined terrain. How the wording is shown in these verses. This is done instantaneously, just as it was for Jesus Christ when he appeared in the locked room.

Terraforming

Revelation 21:1 KJV  And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.

This verse was self-explanatory.

 Celestial phenomena

Joshua 10:13 KJV – And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day.

Isaiah 38:8 KJV – Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down.

Once again self-explanatory. They have written off and tried to hide the fact that they had to include these events in the calculations needed to land upon the moon. Now to those that are lunar landing naysayers. We’re talking 1969. All the excuses you use to say the landing was made up were physically and technologically impossible to make the landing be untrue. In actuality the space race caused the creation of these very technologies people say caused the fallacy to be created decades after the landings actually occurred. This comes from someone who was alive in 1969 and at that time the transiter, which was created due to the space race was just coming into its own.

Dinosaurs

Job 40:15-18 KJV – Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox. Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly. He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.

Look at the behemoth in Job. A tail upon the creature is described as being like a Lebanon cedar. For the longest time many could not say that this “behemoth” was in fact a dinosaur since for years they had tails from dinosaurs dragging the ground. Then scientist figured out that their tails actually went straight back and looks like the trunk of a cedar tree, long straight and tappers to a point. Moreover, Lebanon cedars were huge, used as pillars and masts. So again, science confirms the Bible and thus confirms God. Just think about that for a bit.

Ascension into a higher life form; immortality

1 Corinthians 15:52-53 KJV – In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

The one thing that those that deny God don’t want to accept is that the promised immortality found within the Bible is offered to them. To them personally. It is not something for our descendants, but for every single person that was ever conceived.

Now I use the word conceived for a reason. For God knows all before they were even conceived.

Jeremiah 1:5 NKJV – “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.”

Do you think Jeremiah is the only person God knows before they are born? I think not. With that in mind then saying “that was ever conceived” works.

Therefore, ALL humanity. Be they sinner or saint WILL receive eternity. It is just how they will receive it. In the service of God or in eternal agony.

It is this last statement that makes people short sighted. Because most do not want to accept, they may face billions upon billions of years in pain and agony. They say, “How can a God do this to people.”

Again, this new last statement shows people are truly short sighted, and ignorant of the truth. God doesn’t do this to people. They do it to themselves. All are judged by THEIR works. Their actions. Their behavior. Their sins. People put themselves either in the service of God or in the lake of fire. This is shown in Romans 2:1-11 for those that call themselves “Christians.” It is shown in Revelation 20:11-15 for all others. That it is their actions that places them where they will live for all eternity.

You need to stop being short sighted. You need to stop listening to lies. You need to accept that we will face judgement if we don’t end sin within our lives. All that don’t accept Jesus Christ will stand before the Great White Throne Judgement.

Here is another thing that many are short sighted about. They think they can say they follow Christ and still have the huge house, the fancy vehicles and clothes. This is a lie. Their short sightedness has turned them into the lukewarm.

Becoming the lukewarm makes them worse than those that were short sighted and denied there is a God. They too, even though they at first accepted Christ as their Savior, will stand before the Great White Throne Judgement.

This is what happens to all that choose to be short sighted. Be they so-called “Christian.” Or they call themselves Atheist, Agnostic or follow some other man-made religion.

Oh. There it is. Someone reading or listening just made another short-sighted statement. A statement that Christianity is a man-made religion. The religions that came out of the teachings found within the Bible are mostly man-made religions.

True followers for Jesus Christ do not follow religious doctrines. They follow what the Bible teaches. They attempt to live a needs-only lifestyle. They spread the Word of God. They place all others before themselves. For they desire for all to be accepted as Children of God and are fully dedicated to achieving this goal.

Time is quickly running out. Stop being short sighted and accept Jesus Christ as your Savior. Therefore, the eternal life you are to live will be one filled with joy and not one filled with eternal agony. It is truly up to you and you alone. There is no once saved always saved. There is no faith is all you need. There is a God. He created everything. He has approached you. You were just being short sighted because you think it all revolves around you. Your choices do, but nothing else. It is your choice on where you will face eternity. Your choice.

I mean you have accepted all that Sci-Fi offers and teaches. Why can’t you try and be long-sighted. Open your mind to expanding your horizons. Horizons that can lead to billions and billions of years exploring a new universe and living upon a new earth where there are no oceans.

God Bless

Discussion

One of the greatest sorrows that is witnessed in this world today, is the belief that all you need say is: “I believe in Jesus” and call yourself a “Christian” and you are all set for an eternal life in heaven.

This is a lie. PERIOD.

Stop. Stop getting angry. Stop saying that what you are reading or hearing here is BS.

Listen. Pay attention. Learn. First step. If you did get angry at what was just said listen to the Bible.

Galatians 5:19-21 NKJV – Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

“Hatred.” “Contentions.” “Outbursts of wrath.”

All of these are words that reflect anger that is what was just expressed just now. What is the fate of any that shows this type of anger?

“Those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.”

Now we have to truly understand the pretext of these words written to the Galatians. These were people that had asked Jesus to be their Savior. They had been baptized. They were saved. Yet, what is the very first thing written to the people of Galatia after the greeting?

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.

They started listening to a false gospel. A gospel that used the Truth and the Name of Christ. However, it was not the Truth any longer. What was it they were listening to? This is answered in the tenth verse, so I will address this with a different translation.

Galatians 1:10 AMP – Now am I trying to win the favor of men, or of God? Do I seek to please men? If I were still seeking popularity with men, I should not be a bond servant of Christ (the Messiah).

“Do I seek to please men.” “If I were still seeking popularity with men.”

Now understand. Most that stand upon the dais and face the crowd seek to please those listening to them. This means they are not bond servants of God. They are false teachers. They are twice over cursed to damnation. For they are not leading people to Salvation, but along with them to damnation. Because the message they are teaching does not teach those listening to stop living in the sins listed in the fifth chapter of the letter to the people of Galatia.

Accordingly, the larger the building called a “church” and the larger the congregation that goes to these buildings are in truth already damned. Especially if they show any of the sins given in chapter 5. So, I will restate them once again.

“Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like.”

I remember back to my early days of my Christian life. I remember wanting to inform parents about the subtle influence of Satan in cartoons that was leading their children away from Christ. I went to a large church one Sunday morning and I was placing flyers upon windows of vehicles in the parking lot. I was approached by a man who confronted me and then cursing chased me out of the church parking lot. I didn’t realize it then. As I do now that this was varication that this large “church” was not in the service of God, but Satan. As are all buildings that use the word “church.” The bigger the closer to Satan than to God.

Once again. A building that is called a “church” is not the Church of God. It is those that profess to following Jesus Christ and live a life as taught within the Word of God.

Now right here someone will protest saying we must gather together.

Hebrews 10:24-25 NKJV – And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

Gathering together in a building that preaches false teachings is not the gathering of fellow Christians. This is actually done more on social media than in buildings or even homes. This is the Truth and any who challenge it wish to be pleased. Marking them as people from Galatia not the Body of Christ. Therefore, as many in Galatia they are not welcome in the kingdom of God.

Angry again? Really? More varication. There is a need to start listening to the Truth and not something that tickles your ears.

2 Timothy 3:16- 4:4 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. 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.”

Well the time has come when people do not endure sound doctrine. They seek to have their own desires met. Their comforts, their riches, their possessions, their property. For they have turned away from the Truth and ARE turning aside to fables.

How is it I know they are turning aside to fables?

We don’t have to go far. Let’s look at the extremely popular TV series “The Chosen.”

I watched the first three episodes. All I encountered was false teachings and outright lies. Even things that were said and done that have absolutely no historical or Biblical foundation.

A fable is defined as a short story that tells a general truth or is only partly based on fact, or literature of this type.

“Or is partly based on fact.”  If only part of it is based upon fact the rest of it is based upon what?

A lie. That makes the entire thing a lie. And who created lies?

John 8:44 NKJV – You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.

Since “The Chosen” is a fable aka lies. It is of Satan not of God and must be rejected. However, again there will be anger and laughter. Because it makes people feel good. They are pleased by what they hear and see. So, again as reflected in the first chapter of Galatians those that made it are twice cursed. Not by my word, but the Word of God.

Cursed to damnation for they are leading those that watch and praise it not to heaven but to the lake of fire. For there is no such thing as once saved always saved. For that would imply that God shows favoritism, which is opposite of what is taught by the word of God.

Romans 2:6-11 NLT – He will judge everyone according to what they have done. He will give eternal life to those who keep on doing good, seeking after the glory and honor and immortality that God offers. But he will pour out his anger and wrath on those who live for themselves, who refuse to obey the truth and instead live lives of wickedness. There will be trouble and calamity for everyone who keeps on doing what is evil—for the Jew first and also for the Gentile. But there will be glory and honor and peace from God for all who do good—for the Jew first and also for the Gentile. For God does not show favoritism.

These Words in Romans were aimed directly at those professing to be “Christian.” Again those living in sin and yet professing to be followers of Christ. It is made clear they shall face judgement.

Now one of the things people that cling to OSAS and faith alone is these verses.

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 this resurrection is shown to take place and occurs in Revelation Chapter 7. This is shown to take place at the middle of the Tribulation. However, it is said elsewhere in the Bible that Christ will return as a thief in the night. This shows two separate events for at the middle of the tribulation the sun and the moon’s light will be cut in half. That is a sign a portent. Then Christ could not come as a thieve in the night for there are warning signs. The sun and the moon. Therefore, this clearly shows multiple raptures  form what is called the first resurrection.

All that are resurrected up to the middle of the tribulation are included in the first resurrection. Now what does these verses in Revelation chapter twenty say?

“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.”

Those that truly follow the teachings of Christ and are either in the first or second rapture will never stand in judgement.

One of those popular people that stand upon the dais said that if you are a true disciple of Christ. That WHEN you stand before the judgement throne you will be passed and go on to glory. This is opposite of what we just heard from the Word of God. Consequently, this labels this man as what he truly is a man pleasing those listening. So we once again return to Galatians one showing he is twice cursed. And those that pack the pews are loving having their ears tickled with this man’s people pleasing message.

Believing they will come into heaven no matter how they live their lives.  Once again, totally opposite what is taught within the Word of God.

It must be understood. There is still a little time left to all to fix their relationship with God. Do you know how many people that I know for a fact that profess to being “Christian” and go to the buildings called “church.” However, they do behave in the ways listed in Galatians 5. Or they live in the sins listed in Romans 1.

Romans 1:28-32 NKJV – And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.

Repent. Downsize. Live a needs-only lifestyle. Remove the sins. Remove the sins. Remove the sins.

God Bless

Discussion

Daniel 12:4 NKJV – “But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.”

Most still don’t understand the meaning of this verse. However, in my case it was one of the verses I not only read from the Bible but also dreamt in a dream when I was given the Spiritual gift of being a dreamer of dreams.

It was so obvious to me. The way people were and are now traveling around this planet. How knowledge has grown greatly over the last century. I mean think about it a bit.

Up until the American Civil War how were most wars fought? With calvary and massed soldiers marching in formation. How was ocean battles fought? With ships under sail playing dodge ball in the water throwing things at each other.

Between 1865 and 1914. A mere 49 years. Just about one and a half generations. Since it has been scientifically established that one generation is thirty-three years. Everything in warfare and even communication changed. As well as transportation.

Within the First World War, the political ground work was laid that would allow Israel to become a nation once again which occurred in 1948, shortly after the Second World War. One year after one generation. So thirty-four years later, from the beginning of the first World War. Thus in reality starting a new generation cycle.

At the end of that generational cycle the tenth nation joined the European Economic Community (EEC). Then the AIDS epidemic becomes officially recognized. Become the first of the end-time plagues. This occurred in 1981.

 Matthew 24:4-8 NKJV – And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.

In 2015 the end of the next generation ISIS attacks slaughtering and beheading Westerners and middle eastern Christians. In addition Europe starts to become overrun with middle eastern refugees due to ISIS. In essence making the dream of the Babylonian Statue become a physical reality.

Daniel 2:41-44 NKJV – Whereas you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; yet the strength of the iron shall be in it, just as you saw the iron mixed with ceramic clay. And as the toes of the feet were partly of iron and partly of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile. As you saw iron mixed with ceramic clay, they will mingle with the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay. And in the days of these kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed; and the kingdom shall not be left to other people; it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.

“ As you saw iron mixed with ceramic clay, they will mingle with the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay. “

Christ knew there would be confusion as well as many false prophets and teachers using His name to spread false teachings. Especially about what He had just stated. So He taught this parable directly after to help bring clarity to the situation.

Matthew 24:32-35 NKJV – “Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. So you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near—at the doors! Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.

Now. As I have just presented before these verses. The prophecy is the feet within Nebuchadnezzar’s dream of a statue.

Now, what is important about the parable of the fig tree is these words:

“Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place.”

Why are these words are so important is that we are now seeing all that Christ talked about in Matthew 24. As I have been showing through actual events that have taken place in history we can make an assumption as well. The last date I state at which time those that follow Jesus Christ and started to be hunted was 2015.

Consequently, I can theorized that Jesus Christ can return within thirty-three years from that point. That shows that Christ will return before 2048.

Now I can narrow this window down even further to be within the next few years. However, I won’t at this time. For it has not been given to me to say. For only one being knows the exact day and that is God, and no human can or should even attempt to do so or be labeled as what they are. False teachers and prophets.

The purpose of this teaching is to awaken those willing to listen to start and fix their relationship with God through Jesus Christ NOW. For we are living in the generation that WILL see the return of Jesus Christ.

There are no “ifs” “ands” or “buts” about this statement. This is not a possibility, but reality. We are living in the end-times. Right now.

Therefore, we know one major fact. That most that now profess to being “Christian” are in fact lukewarm and are not now or possible never were a part of the Body of Christ. For the seven letters of the second and third chapters of the book of Revelation are not just concurrent, but chronological. The last letter describing how most that calls themselves “Christian” would act like. So let us hear these verses at this time.

Revelation 3:15-19 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— I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent.

So, what labels most that profess to being “Christian” to actually being the “lukewarm?”

“Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’”

Most that profess to being “Christian” live in or seek after fancy houses. They drive fancy vehicles and wear fancy clothes. Gathering unto themselves multiple possessions of various sizes and types. Keeping and horde all their earthly wealth for themselves. So, they have no needs, but only wants. This is what labels them as “lukewarm.” This is what shows that Christ Himself has vomited them out of the Body of Christ.

They are called to be zealous and repent. Let’s breakdown the word “zealous.”

Zealous – G2206 – zéloó – am eager to possess, covet (earnestly), (have) desire

Eager – wanting very much to do or have something, especially something interesting or enjoyable.

Covet – to want to have something very much, especially something that belongs to someone else

Desire – to want something, especially strongly

From the breakdown of the word “zealous” we learn a very clear message. That those that are lukewarm must now seek after something very special that is not theirs. This is a clear statement that they are no longer a part of the Vine of salvation Who is Jesus Christ. Because they seek after what the world esteems, they are not welcome into heaven or the presence of God.

However, they can fix this.

How can they fix this? Repent!

This means they must get rid of their worldly possessions and downsize NOW! Quickly. For right now they do not know “that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked.”

For what they consider wealth isn’t and what they think is clothing isn’t. They are wretched beings thinking they are special and blessed when they are cursed to damnation by their own words and actions.

As had been already established time is quickly running out. They MUST take action NOW! Right this very moment. Sell off your earthly mammon and seek after true salvation through Jesus Christ.

Mammon is defined as this: riches, money, possessions, property.

All this must go. You must start to live a needs-only lifestyle NOW! And use the rest of your earthly wealth to help those in need and in the spread of the Word of God.

1 Timothy 6:6-10 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.

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.

Any who seek after earthly wealth are destine to damnation. PERIOD.

God Bless

Discussion

It is once again time to for some hard truth. Most will tune out. Others will deny it pertains to them. It doesn’t change the fact that it is the truth. They will still do nothing to fix their relationship with God. Because to them they are fine with God. They are going to heaven. They will stand before God in robes of white.

This is the furthest thing from the truth.

Most that believe they are all good and well with God live under the man-made teachings of faith alone and OSAS. They say that the laws are not needed. That all you need to do is believe in God and Jesus is their Savior. However, they live their lives without changing. They still seek after what the world seeks after.

They think they are better than those about them because they go to church on Sunday. Then leave the buildings to go play golf or watch the modern-day gladiator sports called Baseball, Basketball, Football, amongst others. They leave these buildings in expensive vehicles with all the bells and whistles built into them.

All of this is sin. All this labels them as lukewarm. But they don’t want to hear this. They just want to keep living their lives as they want. Not as God tells them to live it, but how they want to live it. With all their comforts and earthly pleasures.

All the while they are losing their salvation. Again, here will be denial and arguments from those that wish to believe they are exempt and special in the sight of God.

The mere fact that these thoughts crossed their minds shows they don’t know the Bible. That all their thoughts were opposite what Jesus Christ taught. Therefore, this announces to the world and more specifically to God Himself that if they were “Christian” they are not bearing fruit. If they think they are “Christian” they really aren’t.

Those that are angry right now. Those that are calling me a liar right now. It is time for your trial.

Let’s work backwards from what has been stated here.

  1. You believe you are exempt and special in the sight of God.

Romans 2:11 NLT – For God does not show favoritism.

This is the last sentence in a paragraph that is dedicated to speaking directly to those that call themselves “Christian” and live in these sins listed in Romans chapter one.

Romans 1:28-32 NKJV – And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.

Now look to yourself. Have you done these sins? Are you living these sins? Then you are guilty as charged. You are losing your salvation or were never saved. This is from the Bible. Not me. From God, and it is God you are calling a liar. Which seals that verdict against you.

  • Who are the “lukewarm?”

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 say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy and have need of nothing.’”

Are you living in an expensive house? Do you horde your earthly wealth for yourself? Are you seeking after and gathering unto yourself possessions? You have so much you have need of nothing? Not want, need.

The Bible teaches this:

Matthew 6:19-21 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.

Those that seek after the what moths will eat and what rust will destroy and what can be stolen. This is where their heart is. It is not with God at all. Again guilty as charged. Again by the Word of God. They have been vomited out of the Body of Christ. Therefore, they are no longer in the Body of Christ.

How are they supposed to live their lives?

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.

You are to be content with a needs-only lifestyle. If you have wealth what are you to do?

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.

We are to share our earthly wealth and this can ONLY be accomplished by living a needs-only lifestyle. For we are to have this cash available this wealth ready at a moments notice to help those in need. This is impossible for those that horde their wealth for themselves as well as their wants and lusts. This is how most now live their lives that profess to being “Christian.” Therefore, as we have just established they are guilty of sinning against God per the Word of God and most refuse to repent. They are confessing to the world and any with an ear to hear and an eye to see that they are not of the Body of Christ.

What can you do to fix your relationship with God? For that we will turn to the Bible once again.

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.

Let’s beak down how we are to act as true followers of Christ.

“Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us.”

To show love is to abandon the self. True love places all others before ourselves or our wants, lusts or desires. That is what it means to be imitators of God through Christ.

“But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints.”

Those that seek after the large house, the fancy vehicles and the tons of possessions are covetous and idolators. Period. We are told not to be this way for it is not the ways of a Christian. Therefore once we accept Christ as our Savior we MUST down-size. We must reduce our financial footprint and seek to live off of the least of your earthly wealth. For the majority belongs to God.

Lets break down the words: fornication and uncleanness.

Fornication – G4202 – porneia – whoredom, harlotry (including adultery and incest) pornography.

Uncleanness – G167 – akatharsia – impurity (physically or morally) no cursing, no tattoos, no piercings.

Again. Right here people will be throwing a hissy fit. Here we go again to another part of the bible.

Romans 12:1-2 NKJV – I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

“And do not be conformed to this world.” 1 in 4 people on this earth has a tattoo. This means tattoos are of this world. Therefore if you seek after tattoos especially religious ones you insult God, and have earned what is spoken of in 2 Peter 2:

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.”

Let’s continue how you should show you are a child of God.

“Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks.”

Let’s look at this from the amplified bible:

Let there be no filthiness (obscenity, indecency) nor foolish and sinful (silly and corrupt) talk, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting or becoming; but instead voice your thankfulness [to God].

If you challenge all that had been said to this point. I will re-read the next verse.

Ephesians 5:5 NKJV – 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.

“Nor covetous man, who is an idolater.” Let this be very clear. God doesn’t care how much you go to the buildings called “churches.” It is your behavior. It is you actions. It is your works that matter.

If you seek after earthly wealth, possessions. If you live in sin, have tattoos you are not going to heaven, by your own actions. Your own choices. Your own words that leave your lips.

That is unless you truly repent. And truly seek to follow the commandments given to us within the Bible. The Bible is not full us suggestions. It is full of rules that must be followed. You can’t have wealth, possessions and huge homes. For the money you used to get that was God’s not yours.

Repent. Downsize. NOW! Right now. Not tomorrow. NOW!

God Bless
