I heard a certain preacher today on the news, talk of how Jesus was a prophet, how people need to be set free, how the government needs to address their needs, how Jesus said "I have other sheep which are not of this fold", using this scripture to justify that Muslims will enter heaven by keeping their current belief system, by suggesting that this scripture is the portal where all whether they accept that Jesus is the way the truth and the life or not, can enter into Heaven.
Lies, half truths, deception. Anyone with half an ounce of discernment can see that while this man talks of peace, his heart is set on fire with murderous hatred and prejudice. Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. There is no godly humility in this man who pretends to speak for God, while seeking to incite those in our society who have hearts as his. He speaks of unity, while working to divide. He complains about things which are the result of sin, while refusing to condemn the sin itself which is the root cause of the problem. This man lives an affluent lifestyle while condemning others who do likewise. This man is plainly a child of disobedience.
Oh dear, haven't we so called Christians learned anything in all these years. When a child of God is saved, he is set free, he does have liberty, in Christ. In the midst of persecution and tribulation and trials he can still be free and have peace in his heart.
It is not the governments job to take care of the christian, it is God's job. When that child of God is sold out to serve the Lord then He takes care of His own, even through famine, even unto death.
Jesus/Yeshua, is the only means by which man can enter into the Kingdom of God, many may not like this fact, but it is a fact that is set for all eternity, and every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus/Yeshua is Lord..Amen
Many today live as if there were no God, many live as if Jesus/Yeshua were never raised from the dead. They, so called Christians as well, live as if God is dead and has no concern for the affairs of men. They believe that He doesn’t care, He doesn’t see, He will not respond to gross wickedness.
Surely the spirit of the prince of the air is at work in the children of disobedience today, in a greater way than I have ever personally experienced.
I have never heard as horrific sins in the lives of people world wide as I am hearing these days. If one were not to trust the Lord, the abomination of these sins is enough to cause a person to loose hope that there will ever be justice in this world.
It’s not that God does not desire to change the world and rid it of sin, it’s that people do not want change, they do not want to turn from their sin. The greatest sins are affecting children, the most vulnerable amongst us. The many perversions, the incest, the rape, the sodomy, the murder being perpetrated on the most innocent amongst us is totally revolting, an abomination, and worthy of the severest of God’s judgment. Parents using their own children to fulfill the evil lust of their flesh, such things ought not to be so. Parents are killing their own flesh and blood for convenience and the love of money.
We are not a civilized World, we have become base, debauched and depraved. We are fit for nothing but the fires of hell, where there shall be weeping and wailing, and gnashing of teeth.
People live as if we have many days ahead, many years ahead, they see no trouble coming to this land of America. The trouble is already here, church you better be ready, your lamps better be filled, you better have an intimate relationship with the Lord Jesus/Yeshua, for there is coming an hour in which that is all that will sustain you, for our wickedness, and the cries of the innocent have reached the portals of Heaven. We have become as Sodom and Gomorah. Even the earth shall vomit out her inhabitants.
It is past time for the church, the so called saints of God to cry out on behalf of the innocent…I have seen the church rise to the occasion only to fall away the moment their earthly kingdoms are threatened. The love of money, the love of power, the love of the world and all its comforts, for the majority of so called Christian leaders today, is more of a concern. God is paid lip service, “Look at all our good works” they shall say, and God shall say, “Depart from me I never knew you, for all your works you have done to be seen of men, and your hearts have been far from me, therefore I shall pick your calamities. Pestilance, famine, sword, plagues, shall all come upon you.”
As it says in Isaiah 66: 4:3b-4
….“Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations.
4I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.”
Ephesians 2:2-3
2Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
3Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
Ephesians 5:3-12
3But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;
4Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
5For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
6Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
7Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
8For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:
9(For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
10Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
11And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
12For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.
Colossians 3:1-8
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
2Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
3For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
4When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
5Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
6For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
7In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
8But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
1 John 37:-10
7Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
10In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
From the priest to the pastor, to those of the congregation, all are corrupt, none seek truth, all seek their own gain.
It is surely a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Let them then that need to repent and turn from their sin, do so while there is yet time. It is not enough just to repent, one must turn from their sin. We need to draw, near to God, resist the devil and then he will flee.
We must love not our lives unto death saints....the crowns go to the overcomers, that we may lay them at His feet..Amen!
This blog is designed to make you "think". Also to encourage,exhort,edify and "Warn" the saints of God as we see the day of The Lord on the horrizon.

Spiritual Wickedness In High Places
I don’t know about you saints, but I feel a heaviness in my spirit. I feel the struggle that is going on in the heavenlies. The struggle against the principalities and powers, against the rulers of the darkeness in this world, against “spiritual wickedness in high places”.
We are in the final battle saints, we are in the final battle for our faith and for our souls, the end is drawing ever nearer.
We have a potpourri of things to believe in and a minion of religions to follow, and leaders just waiting to pounce upon unwitting, unstable, unlearned souls. If you’re looking to follow a man or a woman, there is one on practically every corner just waiting for their next recruit.
As wickedness increases, the wicked become bolder with their ungodly assertions. They announce their plan of attack against the Almighty God of Heaven, His children and His written word.
Oh the pomposity and audacity of those who purport to speak for God and Christ, for there is no fear of God in their hearts. In vain do they worship Him, teaching for doctrine the commandments of men.
How appropriate that the head of the Roman Catholic Church, a political figure a religious figure, should be on the soil of these United States as I type these words.
He heads up a massive and idolatrous following, who look to him, to speak for God and Mary.
It is not enough for man to seek God for himself he thinks he needs a mediator. If the unsaved millions only knew, Christ is our mediator, our one true intercessor and only High Priest. He shed His blood for our sins, He rose again, He is Alive…not dead, we serve a living God. He is not confined to our minds, or to a mere man made communion wafer. He is Alive!!!
There are many today who purport to speak for Christ, many who prophesy, “Thus saith the Lord”, “The Lord Says,” yet they speak a vision or a word of their own hearts. They set themselves up above reproach, unable to be questioned. They are set in the way of their own man made doctrine.
As it was then (old testament, new testament) so it is now, many have a word they say from the Lord, yet the Lord is not in their word.
We have 400 plus children removed from a false religious commune in Texas, because of men who have perverted the gospel to fit their own desires and feed the lusts of their flesh. They have chosen to believe a lie and be damned.
Then we have a politicians’ pastor (who is currently running to become president of this country) who purports to speak for God. Who spews the same type of prejudiced hatred that he attributes to those whom he perceives as his enemies. He has led thousands onto the path of destruction.
All prejudice is evil and from hell. No man or woman should be judged by the color of their skin. God made us all in his image.
Then we have a well known celebrity who denies Jesus Christ on the airwaves, and is on u-tube for all to hear. She has no fear of God, she does what she thinks is right in her own eyes, and is leading unstable souls on the path of destruction. None of her good deeds will be a ransome for her soul.
Broad is the way that leads to destruction, straight is the gate and narrow is the way that leads to eternal life, and sadly there be few who shall find that way, and want to walk therein.
Surely there is spiritual wickedness in high places, and millions dance to the tune that the various pipers play, because they have not received a love for the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
There are those who go to supposed “spirit filled” churches that I personally have knowledge of, who live in homosexuality, who live in adultery, who are members of the Masonic lodge, who lie, who commit fornication, who molest children, and some of this category, even pastor churches, and sit on church boards.
Who are these people serving? Not Jesus Christ, they are putting Him to an open shame; they are serving their dead flesh.
This saints, is why God’s Word says that judgment will begin at the house of God. You can sweep sin under the carpet in your houses of worship, and hide it from men, but you cannot hide it from the face of God. Gentiles our time is about up!
God created Israel, He gave the Jews their borders, He made her a nation. He gave her victory over her enemies. And we have a leaders, political and religious, working to make Israel give up her God given right to her land, all in the name of peace. When it is well known, (because the enemies of Israel make no secret of it) Israel’s enemies do not want peace. They want to drive all the Jews into the ocean, and eradicate Israel from the maps of the world.
I felt as if I heard the angels saying to the Lord today, “Oh Lord what did you die for, none are taking heed.”
And I felt the utter frustration, the burden. Oh Lord what will it take for us to awaken to the day and hour in which we are living…personally saints, I just don’t know.
This is why Jesus himself said “When I come will I find faith.”
10Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

UnGodly Hocus Pocus
Can Christians, through prayer, change the purpose of an idol, from that which is bad to something which is good, and is it scriptural?
Just when I thought I’d heard it all folks….I have one for you that takes the cake for now.
We have a large statue in our city which was made by and Indian, and stands at the fork of the two rivers running through our city. It is called "The keeper of the plains" and has its hands raised heaven ward.
It has… up until now been considered by Christians in this city to be an vain idol.
Recently a certain group of prayer “so called” intercessors went and prayed by the statue and now claim that this statues purpose has been divinely changed and it now worships the one true God.
Now folks this is not made up. Does this all sound too daft (idiotic) or is it just me?
Now tell me some one, first of all how does a lump of metal have any ability to worship anything in the first place?
This for me is on par with an incident that took place here back in the early 1990’s, when a woman who had been given an account of the mark of the beast, went to her priest seeking counsel as to what she should do in the circumstance that she took the mark of the beast, he told her not to worry because he could just absolve her of that.
Now folks I am telling you we have some loon’s running our chicken houses these days. Our so called "spiritual superiors" have simply forsaken the written word of God and are making their own doctrines. I don’t know what “spirit” these people are listening to but honey it’s not the Holy Spirit of God.
Honey I don’t care if you take your statues and baptize them in the river Jordan, they are not going to be clean and they are not going to be accepted by God as HOLY ENOUGH TO WORSHIP HIM…HELLO
First of all let’s check the Scriptures:
Leviticus 26:1-2
Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the LORD your God.
2Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD.
Oh so God is not for idols, or graven images.
What did God say He was going to do with the idols of Egypt, change their purpose?
Ezekiel 30:6-19
Thus saith the LORD; They also that uphold Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her power shall come down: from the tower of Syene shall they fall in it by the sword, saith the Lord GOD.
7And they shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted.
8And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I have set a fire in Egypt, and when all her helpers shall be destroyed.
9In that day shall messengers go forth from me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid, and great pain shall come upon them, as in the day of Egypt: for, lo, it cometh.
10Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon.
11He and his people with him, the terrible of the nations, shall be brought to destroy the land: and they shall draw their swords against Egypt, and fill the land with the slain.
12And I will make the rivers dry, and sell the land into the hand of the wicked: and I will make the land waste, and all that is therein, by the hand of strangers: I the LORD have spoken it.
13Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will also destroy the idols, and I will cause their images to cease out of Noph; and there shall be no more a prince of the land of Egypt: and I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.
14And I will make Pathros desolate, and will set fire in Zoan, and will execute judgments in No.
15And I will pour my fury upon Sin, the strength of Egypt; and I will cut off the multitude of No.
16And I will set fire in Egypt: Sin shall have great pain, and No shall be rent asunder, and Noph shall have distresses daily.
17The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth shall fall by the sword: and these cities shall go into captivity.
18At Tehaphnehes also the day shall be darkened, when I shall break there the yokes of Egypt: and the pomp of her strength shall cease in her: as for her, a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall go into captivity.
19Thus will I execute judgments in Egypt: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
God cleans house, he doesnt just paint over folks ...he comes as a destroyer of idols.
Now what did Asa say to his mom when she made an idol, oh now mom you should do that, lets just pray over this thing and it will then worship God?
1 Kings 15:9-13
And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel reigned Asa over Judah.
10And forty and one years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Maachah, the daughter of Abishalom.
11And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, as did David his father.
12And he took away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.
13And also Maachah his mother, even her he removed from being queen, because she had made an idol in a grove; and Asa destroyed her idol, and burnt it by the brook Kidron
And what did Manasseh do with the idols in the house of God, rededicate them to God?
2 Chronicles 33:12-16
And when he was in affliction, he besought the LORD his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers,
13And prayed unto him: and he was entreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD he was God.
14Now after this he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entering in at the fish gate, and compassed about Ophel, and raised it up a very great height, and put captains of war in all the fenced cities of Judah.
15And he took away the strange gods, and the idol out of the house of the LORD, and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of the LORD, and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of the city.
16And he repaired the altar of the LORD, and sacrificed thereon peace offerings and thank offerings, and commanded Judah to serve the LORD God of Israel.
Idols and graven images are to have no part in the worship of the one true Holy Almighty God, He is not flattered by our attempt to excuse or cover the sins of our cities.
This is where were at folks:
Isaiah 66:1-4
Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?
2For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.
3He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as if he cut off a dog’s neck; he that offereth an oblation, as if he offered swine’s blood; he that burneth incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations.
4I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.
1 Corinthians 10:20-22
But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.
21Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord’s table, and of the table of devils.
22Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?
To pray a prayer to absolve a lifeless statue of its original intended purpose to worship mother earth, or what ever other god, is lunacy, not a Holy act of redemption, and cleansing. God bless you all…look up for your redemption draweth nigh. Oh, and be on guard my brothers and sisters, there is much done in the name of the Holy Spirit these days that is nothing but ungodly hocus pocus. Truly we are weak and without the true power of the Holy Ghost, we have forsaken the truth of God's word, our faith is in our own works, and we shall perish if this remains so.
Just when I thought I’d heard it all folks….I have one for you that takes the cake for now.

13And prayed unto him: and he was entreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD he was God.
14Now after this he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entering in at the fish gate, and compassed about Ophel, and raised it up a very great height, and put captains of war in all the fenced cities of Judah.
15And he took away the strange gods, and the idol out of the house of the LORD, and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of the LORD, and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of the city.
16And he repaired the altar of the LORD, and sacrificed thereon peace offerings and thank offerings, and commanded Judah to serve the LORD God of Israel.
Idols and graven images are to have no part in the worship of the one true Holy Almighty God, He is not flattered by our attempt to excuse or cover the sins of our cities.
This is where were at folks:
Isaiah 66:1-4
Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?
2For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.
3He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as if he cut off a dog’s neck; he that offereth an oblation, as if he offered swine’s blood; he that burneth incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations.
4I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.
1 Corinthians 10:20-22
But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.
21Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord’s table, and of the table of devils.
22Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?
To pray a prayer to absolve a lifeless statue of its original intended purpose to worship mother earth, or what ever other god, is lunacy, not a Holy act of redemption, and cleansing. God bless you all…look up for your redemption draweth nigh. Oh, and be on guard my brothers and sisters, there is much done in the name of the Holy Spirit these days that is nothing but ungodly hocus pocus. Truly we are weak and without the true power of the Holy Ghost, we have forsaken the truth of God's word, our faith is in our own works, and we shall perish if this remains so.

The Trial Of Your Faith
Make no mistake about Satan’s goal for your life Child of God, it is plain and it is simple, Satan wants to rob you of your faith in Jesus Christ, by any means at his disposal. That means he will use anyone or anything to come against you.
Satan knew Job, and saint he knows you, howbeit he may well underestimate the power of Christ that works within you.
From the moment of salvation the Christian is tried, tested, persecuted, proved, refined and purified.
As a Christian if you’re not being tried and tested and persecuted, there is something wrong, because that means Satan does not see you as a threat to his kingdom.
To the devil a new Christian is as fresh meat to a starving lion. A more established Christian is like the challenge of a slow but steady relentless hunt for the same desired result. The true born again Spirit filled Christian is a threat to Satan’s domain.
As stated earlier, Satan’s goal is to rob you of your faith by any means possible, and in case you haven’t noticed he plays dirty. He wants the Christian to feel, fearful, worthless, useless, worried, alone, depressed and defeated, and unloved by God, that’s his job. Make no mistake it is your Faith in Jesus Christ that he wants to destroy.
I believe a grave disservice has been done to the new Christian and the old alike, when they have not been taught, that they have an adversary who will stalk them relentlessly.
Now you may say “Well that’s not a very positive attitude. Why don’t you know, that you just have to rebuke the devil and he will flee from you?”
What I do know is that in any trial, I have to first submit myself, my all, to Jesus Christ.
That I have to resist what ever temptation or what ever arrow the enemy is using to come against me. I have to recognize that this is an all out attack to steal my faith and destroy me.
Now I realize this is not easy as I have often times failed miserably to recognize the enemy’s mode of attack. However with each new attack I have endured and witnessed coming against other children of God, my discernment has become keener, Praise God!!
Satan uses people, he uses governments, he uses our families, those closest to us.
He also attacks our minds, as Paul said the messenger of Satan was sent to buffet him...a constant attack against his mind...but God's grace sustained him, and it can sustain you....we are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus...Amen
We have to remember at all times, and in all places that the bottom line is, Satan is out to destroy our faith, our trust in God We must remember also that nothing and no one is to come between us and God. We are expected, and must be willing to forsake all.... family, loved ones, friends, possessions, position, everything if necessary, for the cause of Jesus Christ and our faith in Him.
We have all been birthed into our circumstances on this earth, and that in itself is a test of our faith. It is up to us whether we will complain about our lives (something i have been guilty of in the past) , become absorbed with our problems, and become bitter and resentful against God.
Or whether we will understand that God allowed our lives to be as they are, that we may be tried, tested, and proved, as the children of Israel were tried, and proven, in the wilderness those 40 years, and that we may come forth as gold.
We need not become so tied up in the circumstances that surround us, if we put our Trust in God, but we can look to the eternal, and think on the things to come, that we may be given the strength to stand through what we currently are enduring.
To those who are caught up in circumstance that they feel are beyond their control, remember dear Saint, that your situation is not beyond God’s control, Satan just desires that you believe the God has given up on your situation. God is for you saint of God, and if God is for the child of God, who can then be against you!…Amen
1 Peter 1:3-9
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
4To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,
5Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
6Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations:
7That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
8Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
9Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
1 Peter 4:12-13
Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
13But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy
2 Timothy 3:12
12Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
Colossians 3:1-4
1If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
2Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
3For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
Children of God this life is not about the here and now, it’s all about the eternal. This life will pass but the life to come, for the Christian, is eternal.
Children of God it will be worth it all when we are in the presence of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Let us not dwell on the things of this earth but of Heaven above…
Amen, and God Bless You all.

The Root Of False Doctrine
What is the root of false doctrine?
This is the root of all false doctrine; those who say that the Bible is not the final authority, and those who teach for doctrine the commandments of men.
Those who teach “listen to me”, rather than listen to the Holy Spirit, and obey the Word of God. These are the ones who have and are leading people in error.
Anyone, any religious body, that tells you “The Bible is not the final authority”, plain and simple is a liar, and a deceiver.
It’s not the Bible plus something else, or the Bible is true, but we must help you understand what is written in it. That is the Holy Spirit’s job, to lead you into all Truth, not man’s job.
The Word of God stands alone in its own Eternal Authority.
When men retreat from the Truth of the Gospel, they fall into grievous error which binds men, and women, in spiritual bondage, and at risk of loosing their eternal souls to the deceiver.
Christ Jesus is the True Shepherd, and He has not entrusted His role, or the role of His Holy Spirit, to any man or woman on earth, or in Heaven above.
John10:1-14
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
2But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
3To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
4And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
5And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
6This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.
7Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
8All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
9I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
10The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
11I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
12But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
13The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
14I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
He, Jesus Christ, is the way, the truth and the life. No man or woman can enter into Heaven, but by Him.
There are not many paths to Heaven, only one, and anyone who teaches men and women other wise is a thief and a liar.
John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Jesus said in
Matthew 7:13-14
13Enter 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:
14Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
To whom is the gospel of salvation hidden, and not able to be understood?
2 Corinthians 4:3-4
But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
4In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
The truth of the gospel is for every hungry soul to understand through the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Not by the guidance of any man, whether He be pope, priest, deacon, elder, preacher, pastor, evangelist, or other.
Jesus is our only High Priest, and He ever lives to intercede for us, we don’t need a priest, or pastor to intercede for us, we already have the one and only Great High Priest, Jesus Christ the Righteous one, and He and He alone, lives to make intercession for His body.
1 Timothy 2:5
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
Jesus is the Head and Founder and sustainer of His Church, His Body.
Paul said:
Galatians 1:6-12
I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
7Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
8But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
10For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
11But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
12For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Jesus said:
Matthew 7:15-27
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
24Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
25And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
26And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
27And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
No religious entity is the way, no man is the way, no mans word or doctrine is the way, no other book outside of the Bible is the way, Jesus is the way. There are not many paths to heaven, there is but one, Jesus Christ the Righteous, High Priest, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, The Great and soon coming King.
Hebrews7:25-27, speaking of Jesus
Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
26For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
27Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people’s: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.
1 Timothy 4:1-5
Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
3Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
4For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
5For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
2 Timothy 3:10-17
But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,
11Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.
12Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
13But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
14But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;
15And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
This is the root of all false doctrine; those who say that the Bible is not the final authority, and those who teach for doctrine the commandments of men.
Those who teach “listen to me”, rather than listen to the Holy Spirit, and obey the Word of God. These are the ones who have and are leading people in error.
Anyone, any religious body, that tells you “The Bible is not the final authority”, plain and simple is a liar, and a deceiver.
It’s not the Bible plus something else, or the Bible is true, but we must help you understand what is written in it. That is the Holy Spirit’s job, to lead you into all Truth, not man’s job.
The Word of God stands alone in its own Eternal Authority.
When men retreat from the Truth of the Gospel, they fall into grievous error which binds men, and women, in spiritual bondage, and at risk of loosing their eternal souls to the deceiver.
Christ Jesus is the True Shepherd, and He has not entrusted His role, or the role of His Holy Spirit, to any man or woman on earth, or in Heaven above.
John10:1-14
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
2But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
3To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
4And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
5And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
6This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.
7Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
8All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
9I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
10The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
11I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
12But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
13The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
14I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
He, Jesus Christ, is the way, the truth and the life. No man or woman can enter into Heaven, but by Him.
There are not many paths to Heaven, only one, and anyone who teaches men and women other wise is a thief and a liar.
John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Jesus said in
Matthew 7:13-14
13Enter 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:
14Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
To whom is the gospel of salvation hidden, and not able to be understood?
2 Corinthians 4:3-4
But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
4In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
The truth of the gospel is for every hungry soul to understand through the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Not by the guidance of any man, whether He be pope, priest, deacon, elder, preacher, pastor, evangelist, or other.
Jesus is our only High Priest, and He ever lives to intercede for us, we don’t need a priest, or pastor to intercede for us, we already have the one and only Great High Priest, Jesus Christ the Righteous one, and He and He alone, lives to make intercession for His body.
1 Timothy 2:5
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
Jesus is the Head and Founder and sustainer of His Church, His Body.
Paul said:
Galatians 1:6-12
I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
7Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
8But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
10For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
11But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
12For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Jesus said:
Matthew 7:15-27
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
24Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
25And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
26And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
27And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
No religious entity is the way, no man is the way, no mans word or doctrine is the way, no other book outside of the Bible is the way, Jesus is the way. There are not many paths to heaven, there is but one, Jesus Christ the Righteous, High Priest, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, The Great and soon coming King.
Hebrews7:25-27, speaking of Jesus
Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
26For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
27Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people’s: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.
1 Timothy 4:1-5
Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
3Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
4For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
5For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
2 Timothy 3:10-17
But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,
11Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.
12Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
13But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
14But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;
15And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

And The Earth Shall Vomit Out Her Inhabitants
And why does God say that the earth it’s self shall vomit out her inhabitants?
Because of the great abominations which it’s inhabitants commit against Him and one another.
Unless you live a very sheltered existence, you are aware of all the wickedness that goes on in our society. The thing that gives me the most grief is what these abominations are doing to our children. There are generations that are affected by these abominations and perversions that go on in our so called civilized society, by people who cannot get rule over their own spirit and who have no desire to get control of the lusts that work in their being. Body of Christ we need to weep for the sins of this nation and this world, we need to weep for the children around us.
You can read Leviticus chapter 18 to see what was occurring in that day, I am quoting here just a portion:
Leviticus 18:24-30
24Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you:
25And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.
26Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations; neither any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you:
27(For all these abominations have the men of the land done, which were before you, and the land is defiled;)
28That the land spue not you out also, when ye defile it, as it spued out the nations that were before you.
29For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people.
30Therefore shall ye keep mine ordinance, that ye commit not any one of these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am the LORD your God.
When the Lord’s Judgment comes upon the world there will be no asking why, we shall know why.
Ezekiel 14:12-23
12The word of the LORD came again to me, saying,
13Son of man, when the land sinneth against me by trespassing grievously, then will I stretch out mine hand upon it, and will break the staff of the bread thereof, and will send famine upon it, and will cut off man and beast from it:
14Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord GOD.
15If I cause noisome beasts to pass through the land, and they spoil it, so that it be desolate, that no man may pass through because of the beasts:
16Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only shall be delivered, but the land shall be desolate.
17Or if I bring a sword upon that land, and say, Sword, go through the land; so that I cut off man and beast from it:
18Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they only shall be delivered themselves.
19Or if I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out my fury upon it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast:
20Though Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither son nor daughter; they shall but deliver their own souls by their righteousness.
21For thus saith the Lord GOD; How much more when I send my four sore judgments upon Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the noisome beast, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast?
22Yet, behold, therein shall be left a remnant that shall be brought forth, both sons and daughters: behold, they shall come forth unto you, and ye shall see their way and their doings: and ye shall be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, even concerning all that I have brought upon it.
23And they shall comfort you, when ye see their ways and their doings: and ye shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have done in it, saith the Lord GOD.
People there are great abominations going on in this country, within families in this country. By people who refuse to resist evil, and willingly give into it, to satisfy their greedy flesh. It not only occurs here, but all around the world and we wonder why countries struggle, they struggle because of their gross sin before a Holy God.
There is no good thing in the flesh of man, it is willfully sinful. Without us submitting ourselves to God and resisting the devil, to the point like we feel we might die, and be willing to die to ourselves, there can be no victory over our sinful nature. Seek God with all your heart for deliverance. He can and will give deliverance over the flesh to those who seek Him in truth. Crucify your flesh, lest your sins follow you into eternity.
Some teach our children today that these abominations are natural, they are natural alright, natural for brute beasts. Natural for the uncrucified sin nature of man. The heart of man is desperately wicked, and if untamed, uncontrolled, unsaved, is capable of multipul abominations.
2 Peter 2:12
But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption;
I am telling you this nation and this world cannot continue much longer, the blood of the innocent, the cries of the innocent who are robbed of their innocence on an hourly, moment by moment basis in this country alone, have reached unto Heaven, and The Lord is about to sake this earth like it has never been shaken before.
If the wickedness and perversions that go on in society break our hearts, God’s heart is ready to explode with His vengeance from on High. It is enough, your sins have reached up to Heaven, world. Even the very earth is ready to vomit you out for your great perversions and your wickedness.
Jude 1:7
7Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
I wait for a new heaven and a new earth where in dwelleth righteousness, I yearn to be free of the wickedness that surrounds me on this earth.
2 Peter 3:10-14
10But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
14Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless......AMEN!!

Satan Has Come Down, Knowing he Has But A Little Time
Today I was thinking about the many ways that satan has personally come against me these past few weeks, and against a lot of dear precious saints that I know. I was submitting my self to the Lord and resisting the devils desire that I become down cast, depressed and defeated. The Lord spoke this short word to me, and I went searching the Word.
“Satan Has Come Down, Knowing he Has But A Little Time”
Revelation 12:10- 12,17
10And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
11And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
12Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
17And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Now Satan is more subtil than any beast, and he will make war with the Saints of God, he does currently make war with the Saints of God. He is the accuser of the brethren, he is the one who says thou shalt not die,..(the Word says it is appointed once for a man to die and then the judgment)…. but ye shall be as God…let the saints hear what the Spirit is saying to the Body of Christ…Oh Lord encourage your saints, to be wise as serpents and harmless as doves…
Let me asure you saints, the devil is come to steal your faith, to destroy your trust in God, and to kill you. Be aware he does not come in his own form but in the form of those you care about the most, and in the world, those who are his.
He attacks by coming against those you love the most, he attacks through those you trust, he attacks through the most unexpected ways, he attacks through those who call themselves the brethren. He attacks you in your home, he attacks you in the work place, he attacks you in your school, he attacks you in your church. He attacks you in your mind. He tells you "you cannot make it"...He is a liar, you can do all things through Christ Jesus who strengthens you, you may not have the strength in yourself, but through Him and resting in Him you will be an overcomer.
He wants you to be down cast, he wants you to be depressed; he wants you to believe there is no hope. He wants you to believe you won’t make it to the end, he wants you to believe that you’re not an overcomer.
However he constantly forgets one thing…He who saved you is able, able to keep you, able to sustain you, able to make you an overcomer, when you submit yourself to Him and resist the devils temptations. He who began a good work in you will finish it…Amen…take courage saints and hold fast to that which you have been given by The MOST HIGH...AMEN
