Kenneth Copeland Tells Grieving Family to Resist Grief & Sorrow!


Quote "The Rev. Kenneth Copeland of Fort Worth, Texas, urged the family (of Minister Billy Joe Daugherty) and others to resist grief and sorrow, which deny the reality that they will see him again." End quote

This statement to me heaps condemnation upon those in grief.

Does the word of God tell us to resist grief and sorrow when we loose a loved one?

Many today who have no natural affection, attempt to unnaturally stifle the emotions of others.

John 11:33-36-In relation to the death of Lazarus of Bethany
33. When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,
34. And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see.
35. Jesus wept.
36. Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!

Christ had compassion for these people, and He wept with those who wept, He didn't tell them to stifle the emotion of grief, that one who loves, displays toward the deceased.

I once witnessed a woman telling a 4 year old little girl, whose feelings were hurt-"We don't cry unless were hurt".... well the child was hurting, in her heart. We have a generation who is hardened and have no love of God in them, therefore no compassion toward others.

Romans 12:15
Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.

Granted we don't have to sorrow as those who have no hope, for our hope is in Christ, but there is a time and a season for grief and sorrow.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
1. To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
2. A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
3. A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4. A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5. A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6. A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7. A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8. A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

Saints we can become so hardened in our spirits these days, that we can come to the place of Kenneth Copeland who is a false teacher and a reprobate. Such a man as he shall be bought to a place of mourning and he will know grief and sadness of heart.

We must always keep the heart of Christ who wept with those who wept and rejoiced with those who rejoiced.

Me Myself and I-All is Vanity!


So few today are willing to lay down their life for others, let alone lay it down for the LORD.

Husbands and wives will not lay down their worldly desires long enough for each other, or their families. Children suffer, as they sit on the sidelines while mom and dad get their fill of the world.

Husbands and wives think nothing of infidelity. They believe they are entitled to their self indulgences, and their sin.

Many mothers (I am not referring here to those few who have to work due to circumstances beyond their control) spend more time on the job, than with their babies, toiling for the things of the world, or educational promotions, thinking the accumulation of mammon to be the greatest achievement in life. Spending a fortune on trinkets for their children, to perhaps some how compensate for the lack of time they willingly spend apart from them. All the while believing the children are just fine. Posing for the perfect family portrait, when they are not a family at all. Material possessions can never compensate for a parents love and time.

The children suffer because they need a mothers love and nurturing in those first few years, but so many mothers lack natural affection. Their baby sitters show them more affection than their own mothers, who don't have a true mothers heart. These mothers are the product often times of their mothers, who passed them off as babies, to follow their careers. They have grown up with detachment disorders, and don't have the ability, out side of Jesus Christ, to nurture anyone, let alone their own children. Many children don't even know what a home cooked meal is, everything they eat is ether frozen or canned. Mothers don't even care to make a family meal, they don't have time. Often times, the at home time, these mothers do have ,they spend on "me" time...that is the mind set of today-"Me, Myself and I -Me first, Me second, and if there's anything left over "Me again"....

Love is not present with many, they do not love one another, they do not love their children, Oh they say they do, but their works betray them, they love themselves first. If we do not have love God is not in us.

Titus 2:3-53

3. The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;

4. That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,

5. To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

Today, so many ego's are competing to be held in high esteem, within the world, and the church. Everyone wants to be seen, to be heard, to be admired, everyone even in the church wants to be loved by the world, everyone wants to make a name for themselves. All the while they forget that all is vanity and vexation of spirit. In the end of all things what price would these people be willing to pay for their soul.

There is not love in the homes, there is not love in the church. Man has forgotten the price that was paid for their soul, the love it took to hang on that cross. The love of God it took to allow HIS son to be hung on that cross, to suffer for the ungrateful, and the unworthy, and the unthankful, and the merciless, and the unforgiving, and the wicked. He that loveth not, knoweth not God for God is love.

We seem to forget that none of us deserved to be saved, it was only God's great Mercy and Love, that saw fit to show Grace to us, unto salvation. Many Christians act as though they are entitled to salvation, that there was some merit found in them that made it all possible. Listen we were all worthy of burning for all eternity.

As individuals we need all awaken and realize that the love we give, the mercy we show toward others, the giving of ourselves for our families, and our friends, as unto God, is what is going to last for all eternity. This present life is merely a vapor and can be gone in a split second of time.

OH That the Wicked would repent, and the luke warm turn from their ways..


Oh that the lost man would seek God, and taste and see that the LORD is Good.

Matthew 7:7-10
7. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
8. For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
9. Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?
10. Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
11. If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?

If God is dealing with a lost man, all that man needs to do is cry out to God with all His heart, mind, and soul, earnestly in honesty and repentance, and the LORD will save his soul. God knows the very hearts of men, he sees the real person inside, and He knows them that are HIS.

God will move mountians to reach the lost, He paid a great price for the souls of the lost. All of history is based arround the price HE paid on that cross. All man has to do is A S K!

Oh that the luke warm would turn, and choose the straight gate and the narrow way.

Matthew 7:13-14
13. Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14. Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

There are not many paths to Heaven as the Pope, Mother Teresa, Billy Graham, Robert Schuller, Joel Osteen, and others report. They are liars, and all liars have a place prepared for them in Hell, where the fires is never quenched and the worm never dies.

At the end of the parable of the marriage supper Jesus said the following:
Matthew 22:11-14
11. And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:
12. And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
13. Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
14. For many are called, but few are chosen.

May I say, God is no fool, we can fool the church, we can fool each other, but we can't fool God!. He is the discerner of the very thoughts and intents of the hearts.

Only those who love God, and keep His commandments shall enter into Heaven.

There will be none who defile themselves who enter in.
Revelation 22:11-15
11. He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
12. And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
13. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
14. Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
15. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

We are entering the day the likes of which the world has never seen nor shall they see again. In this day many will curse God to His face, many will weep, yet a remnant will remain faithful to the end. Even so come LORD JESUS!
All the commandments can be summed up in this =LOVE GOD with your all, and LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR as much as you love yourself !

A Word of Encouragement for the Remnant


The Glory of The LORD Shall sine upon His Own!
For all those who feel isolated in this present world, who are feeling alone, and perhaps you hunger for something of the LORD, that you are not receiving, please be encouraged today. Keep pressing in the LORD will hear your cries.

For all those who scoff at the children of God, be warned for He shall yet deliver His own.

There is coming a day when shame shall cover the enemies of the remnant of God, when they see His delivering hand, and all those who have said, “So where is your God now?” shall be trodden down, they shall know humiliation. For God shall arise to execute His judgment. Our enemies shall have great fear for they shall see the LORD.

God has not turned his back upon his people, He will have compassion upon us, He will forgive us, and cast our iniquities into the depths of the sea. He will finish what He started in us.
As for Israel, all those who scorn Israel, and say, “Ah but the LORD is finished with you.” They shall weep when they see the love that God has for her, for He shall revive Israel for His Glory, and he shall make the world to know that He has always loved her, and they shall be ashamed.
Can God forget His creation?

Our God is Merciful!

The Lord impressed these things upon me this morning as I read Micah chapter 7. He used this chapter to lift me up, I pray this blesses you also saints. God is never to early or to late with His exhortations, and His edifications.
