A short introductory paper laying out the basic truths from the beginning
of time until now about God, Who He is and His dealings with and His will
for all of mankind.
This is for the person who wants to know what he or she must do to have
the salvation of God. It doesn’t matter whether you are an atheist
or one with many years of experience in religion. God is no respecter of
persons, and He is not a disrespecter of any who come before Him in sincerity
and say, “I don’t know but want to. Show me the way.” That
is what He has given us for you in this paper.
Are you considering a true walk of faith? Do you think you have that now?
Don't be deceived and don't mock God Who cannot be mocked. Here's what you
need to consider if you do want to “walk with Jesus” or think
you are.
You say you believe in God. Is your belief doing you any good? Or is it
doing you evil? The promises of God are wonderful for those who believe
Him, but woe to them who believe without faith and its attendant fruits
of obedience.
There is only one way to Heaven. Traditional thoughts focus on the death
of the body, but the truth from God says that if we will live here and now,
we must first die. To be identified with Him, the Lord Jesus Christ, we
must certainly die to the world and ourselves, or how can we be with Him
where He is, as He would have us to be?
“Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of His saints” (Psalms
116:15 KJV).
There is no place for partisanship in choosing and doing what is right.
The Scriptures are full of examples and directions on how one can prosper,
not in keeping one's life, but in losing it for God's sake by obeying
Him in what is good when familial connections come strongly
against
doing so. We have seen how those who choose their families over doing
what is right reap a sorrowful harvest.
This paper lays out in explicit terms the who, what, where, when, how,
and why of this entrance into the presence of God that only God can perform,
howbeit through His chosen vessels as He sees fit. There are many spurious
(counterfeit) baptisms in the Holy Spirit, deceiving many. If the seeker
of God is sincere and prepared to pay the price, he or she will flee,
and will
be kept from, the false and will be given to know the truth.
As children born of men are destined for manhood, so are children born
of God destined for Godhood. What could be more natural than that? How
else will God be all in all, when His work is done? Yet the very ones
professing faith
in Him find these truths most offensive, calling them blasphemy.
There is an infinitely higher “education,” of which the greatest
scholars and promulgators of this world’s education know nothing.
The least in the Kingdom of Heaven, from whence the highest “education” comes,
is greater than they. Just as there are three degrees of advancement in
higher education, so there are also three degrees of advancement in the
spiritual development with God. These degrees are progressive unveilings
of Jesus Christ, Who is being glorified in man, and the honor is His.
Here are some before and afters of what God does with His saints, whom
He calls, chooses, and prepares for glory. Blessed be His Name! The glory
is His!
We must evaluate all things, returning to our foundations
in all of the physical, mental, and spiritual. We must exercise proper
agricultural and environmental principles. Consider that 2 Chronicles
7:14 clearly expresses truths
of going back to basics, which are able
to restore one spiritually, if taken to heart, no matter what one’s
lot may be.
We have all been and are victims, one way or another. But the secret entrance
into life is to recognize and remind ourselves that we are or have been
perpetrators (producers of victims). With such a one, God will deal, and
will deliver and heal.
Is it God's will that we be healed and have health in body, mind, and soul?
If so, why are so many not experiencing healing? In this writing you will
hear about what His will is for you, and the secrets to the treasure house
of all good things in His will.
The greatest evils are done, not with guns and knives, but with smiles
and handshakes in the everyday business transactions and affairs of this
world. The curtain has been drawn on the deceitfulness covered by appearances,
whose time has come to be put away. The solution for our mutual wellbeing
is simple, yet profound.
What in fact IS the Church and how are we impacted by our belief of what
the true Church of Christ is?
Many flounder in confusion...condemned, doubting, struggling, revelling,
listening to men rather than to God. There are only two churches in this
world...the true and the false. Of which are you a member? You cannot
be a member of both.
This is a world filled with false Christianity, full of lies assumed
to be truths, deceiving almost everyone, preached by the rich, the famous
and the respected of men, as well as the “wanna be's.” Almost
all of those who profess faith in the Lord Jesus Christ are in fact duped
by, honoring and promoting the works of men, the ways of the flesh, the
paths of the destroyer (Ps. 17:4), yet all the while believing they are
true believers. Uh-uh.
Where are we, what are we doing and to whom do we belong in the Name
of the Lord Jesus Christ? Is Christ truly being worshipped in the present
church systems of today or is it “another Jesus”? This paper
calls any and every “church-goer” to account, and confronts
one with his or her lukewarm spiritual state which, while being promised
great things by false leaders, is condemned in the sight of God, no maybe's,
no exceptions.
“And we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain
together until now” (Romans 8:22 MKJV). This describes the separation
and isolation that all people experience, no matter how well connected
they seem to be with others. Why is it this way? And what is the remedy
that stands at the door, prepared to satisfy this most basic need and
yearning for unity? A wonderful change is coming that will bring satisfaction
to that desire of mankind for... the fellowship of the saints.
This is the Day of the Lord, the day of the vengeance of God, the day
in which He gathers His elect from the four winds. Only the children of
light know and see while those in darkness, as in Noah's day, perish scoffing.
And so it must be, even as in Noah's day, even as the Lord said it would
be. This day has never been before and is now here. Ironic that such an
event should be mentioned here, sandwiched with so many other topics of
seemingly far less significance.
We read of the high places in Kings and Chronicles and we imagine all
sorts of things happening in them. Little do we know that they exist today,
and that we ourselves are their frequenters and ardent supporters, perishing
as we go.
How is it that the persecutor cannot see that he is the persecutor? How
is it he sees himself as justified in evil, in returning evil for what
he perceives to be evil? In many cases, the persecutor claims to be a
Christian, yet Jesus Himself did not do as he does. But the children of
darkness are true to their state...walking in darkness. The children of
light, who suffer evil and are accused of it, rejoice not because they
have power and opportunity to punish the wicked, but because they suffer
for Christ's sake.
If there ever was an emancipating truth, it is that when we accept our
circumstances involving all things and people, both evil and good, as
designed by an all-wise and powerful Creator, we taste victory to the
degree that we believe. Acceptance of our lot, no matter what it is, is
a life confession and acknowledgment that Jesus Christ IS LORD.
Bitterness is a like a cancer that eats until all is consumed. Nobody
embracing or harboring bitterness escapes its ravagement. With understanding
comes identification of this deceitful monster that robs one of peace,
joy and prosperity. What is bitterness and where does it come from?
This paper lays out in explicit terms the who, what, where, when, how,
and why of this entrance into the presence of God that only God can perform,
howbeit through His chosen vessels as He sees fit. There are many spurious
(counterfeit) baptisms in the Holy Spirit, deceiving many. If the seeker
of God is sincere and prepared to pay the price, he or she will flee,
and will be kept from, the false and will be given to know the truth.
Jonathan was a good friend of David, but not as good as many might think.
He died on the battlefield with his iniquitous father. Is God unjust that
good and evil men should perish side by side in like manner, against the
same foe? No. “Wherefore,” where do you stand? And do you
indeed stand unto victory as you presume, or does the Lord require more
of you?
A sure sign of the work of God is confession of sin and restitution.
The Kingdom of God has come on earth when you recognize your wrongs and
do what He requires about them. This paper will tell you more about this
blessed event.
Those in the world assume that going by faith is like flying blind, or
worse - having no reason to believe or hope for something except the desire
to do so. They expect something in the future and are invariably disappointed.
True Biblical faith has nothing to do with wishful thinking or imaginations.
It is based on substance, on fact, though hidden from the carnal senses because
it connects to the reality of an unseen world. So while to this world, faith
seems silly or pointless, those who walk by the true faith, a gift of God,
know they are not deceived. They know that as they continue, their reward is
more sure than anything in this world.
Forgiveness is an established attitude. It is the key to a spiritual
breakthrough for most if not all people at one time or another. How often
is there bitterness and unforgiveness hidden under a facade of friendliness!
Worse still, it is sometimes concealed under apparent piety and profession
of faith in Christ, in a spiritual condition that is fruitless, powerless,
and a grief to God because of the hypocrisy. Forgiveness sets free from
a dark, dank, rat-infested prison to a bright, sunny, fresh-air day. The
prisoner holds the keys to undo his chains and unlock the door.
What we have been hearing, referred to as “the good news” or
the gospel, must be seen for what it is…bad news indeed! In its
place must be declared the truly good news. Our selfishness would dictate
that if news is good for us, it is good news, though it might not be very
good for everybody else. Ultimately, if it is not good for all, it is
good for none. Like it or not, none of us can remain an island unto himself
for long, and if one tries to be otherwise, there is only stagnation and
stench, even as when waters stop running, forming a black swamp in which
nothing can live.
The vast majority of professing Christians don’t have a clue about
the true nature and essence of grace, though most use the word. They usually
treat it as a concept of one’s reasonable imagination; a fairytale
nice to believe; an established theory or doctrine, without conditions,
without resultant life changes; or most often, unmerited favor of God
that comes regardless of their spiritual state, lifestyle and attitude,
except to profess faith in Christ.
Many see it as freedom from the Law of God; they mistake iniquity (lawlessness)
for grace.
Learn somewhat now about the true, dynamic, efficacious grace, perhaps
and hopefully, if necessary, to the salvation of your soul, through the
Word of Truth and resultant faith.
The spirit of lawlessness, of iniquity, is everywhere, in everyone. It
is that spirit whose ringing cry is, “You're not going to tell ME
what to do!” It is that “wicked one,” that man of sin,
that son of pride which hates the law of God because it hates Him. People
must be addressed and dealt with on a personal and specific basis and
not only in general. And if they are going to walk with God, they must
submit to such correction, without murmuring.
Several important questions are raised and answered: What is the purpose
of the Lake of Fire? What is the second death? And: How does one who believes
in the Lord Jesus Christ enter the Kingdom of God?
Only because iniquity abounds is there such great confusion about law
and grace, and about what is God's part and what is ours in the scheme
of things. What is the truth about these? What is the relationship between
the two? Is there any relationship at all, as many deny there is? Deliver
yourself from the fruits of iniquity, by the mercies of God; believe Him,
pay the price and obey.
Some things simply do not belong together. Physical examples demonstrate
the folly of mixing such things. How much more devastating are the commonplace
spiritual mixtures men presume serve for good, which violate the first
truth of existence: Our God is a holy God.
There is no good thing that God will withhold from those who look to
Him. Who are those that look to Him? Those who are ready to hear Him in
all things and to obey Him. Obey Him in what? There are three levels of
obedience, covering all aspects of life. Hear what they are and how you
can walk in them.
Jesus said that those who were not offended in Him were blessed. How
hard, yes, even impossible, it is for men and women to not be offended
by the Truth. We have all been there. It is time to take a closer look
at what has been reaped by taking offense, and to differentiate between
reactions of selfishness and speaking the Truth in righteousness.
Humankind takes pride in the false humility of saying it is “only
my opinion.” But it is opinion, is it not, that divides us from
God and from each other? People act as if by having an opinion, and allowing
for others to have the same, they are promoting peace and goodwill. While
choosing to opine, many think they are being objective, broad-minded and
understanding, but it is the very opposite. Opinion promotes division,
strife, disagreement, and dissension. That is how and why there are 35,000
plus “Christian” denominations and so many other religions.
What is repentance? We all think we know, but do we? Repentance is turning
from our righteousness to God's righteousness. It is a recognition that,
in and of ourselves, we have no worth. Truly, it is only by the grace
of God that we can know this, both the definition and the reality. One
day you will know, because you will have experienced it.
Where has the Sabbath gone? What is the true Sabbath? Are the interpretations
of favorite relevant passages concerning the Sabbath legitimate? Are you,
as a believer, inadvertently breaking the whole law of God or not? Who
is responsible for the directions people are taking on this wonderful
subject and fourth commandment of God?
If there is one thing that is universally lacking among those who profess
the Name of the Lord, it is godly submission. There may be submission
to a creed, or the keeping of certain rules, varying from one group and
set of doctrines to another, but the pressure to conform to an appearance
is not the submission of God. Submission to Him comes by receiving, believing,
and obeying those He sends in Jesus Christ, who preach the living Word
of Life. Only by this submission can there be peace, harmony, salvation
and life. Anything else, whether done in His Name or not, tends to disorder,
confusion, and death.
Water Baptism
(Group of Writings and Correspondences)
What this ordinance meant when introduced, and how it is no longer important,
having a parallel with physical circumcision in its symbolism
and what has come for those who believe: "For in Christ
Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but a
new creation"
(Galatians 6:15 EMTV).
There is so much talk about, and emphasis on the “love of God,” that
He in fact, IS love (which is true). But it is a false love that most
conceive of Him, without balance nor justice. Man is afraid to face the
facts about the reality of God's true nature, knowing he falls short,
is guilty and accountable to Him. This writing determines a balance and
perspective by focusing on the severity of God, His justice and His wrath,
as clearly documented in the Holy Scriptures.
Where and how does the Kingdom of God fill the whole world? Is It voted
in? Are people able to unite to raise up His Kingdom? Or must God bring
down all of man's efforts in order to establish His Kingdom on earth?
Where do we fit in with His program? What is the responsibility of man
in this Great Day?
One need not discover the campsite of ancient Israel in the wilderness
of Sinai to prove the veracity of the Scriptures. All one needs for proof
is right here today, in the nation of Israel and the person of the Jew.
There is no more vivid or certain evidence for the truth of the Biblical
record. No people have foretold, through their own prophets, their own
demise and resurrection from the dead. This is not the work of mortal
man, which was confirmed by the King of the Jews, Who laid down and raised
His own body from the dead.
The Lord Jesus Christ, King of kings, Lord of lords, is the Alpha and
the Omega, the beginning and the end. He is doing a work with everyone,
and there is no person who is condemned to burn in an eternal hellfire,
but all are judged to be made alive in Christ. We share writings and
correspondences that address the false doctrines and attitudes that hold
men in bondage. The Truth is vindicated and victorious.
There are critics of religion who fail to distinguish between what man
does and what God does. They blame God, or, not admitting His existence,
the Bible and presumed revelations from God, like the Koran, for all
the violence done by man. They conveniently forget all the good that
has come from the Seed of Abraham through the Jews and Jesus Christ.
They do not perceive or acknowledge the vast difference between the legacy
of the God of Abraham in our world versus that of the god of Muhammad.
In this writing we look at who is violent and why, and where it is all
headed.
This is the Day of the Lord, the day of the reversal of the events in
the Garden of Eden, the day of delivering all of creation back into harmony
with God. Your first reaction to the contents of this paper may be shock,
incredulity, even rage, but you will know, deep within, if you are honest
with yourselves (for it is already quite obvious to you) that what is
spoken here is true. Truth is truth and cannot be hidden nor resisted
forever. Now is the time.
What is the mark of the beast? What is the seal of God? These are matters
of spiritual revelation, not of the carnal realm evident to the senses
of man.
To know the
purpose of evil is the question that confounds the wise, but it
can be known and to this end is the paper written, declaring the sovereignty
of the Lord our God. We can indeed know the purpose of evil.
Interpreting the Bible requires spiritual revelation. A case in point:
It is written that no man can see God’s face and live, yet many
have done that very thing - it requires spiritual enlightenment, rather
than a literal understanding, to know what God means. Then there are
the wicked who profess to love and serve Jesus Christ, yet carnally interpret
the Scripture to condemn those who have seen Him, not knowing they condemn
themselves.
It is commonly said of many that they are hungering after God. That
is not true. There is a sincere desire for a god that will give people
what they want, but only an insincere desire for what God the Creator
wants. To say that these people are seeking God is delusion. Now that
we have that out in the open, something will be done about it.
Can one be so Heavenly minded that he or she is no earthly good? Has
God made the earth and our bodies so that we would destroy both? As it
turns out, being truly Heavenly minded means one is also led into understanding
the importance of what is good and right on earth. There is wisdom in
all that God made, and it is His will that we know it: “Beloved,
in regard to all things I pray that you prosper and be in health, even
as your soul prospers” (3 John 1:2 MKJV).
What is a fool? How is it that so many see the foolishness of others,
but not of themselves? Emperors without clothes abound everywhere, yet
who can tell anyone anything? If everyone knows better, why are things
not better? There is an answer.
We know that the Bible is what God has spoken,
but is that all He has to give us? Some important questions to consider,
along with some important points, leading to an exciting or threatening
conclusion, depending on where you stand.
What treasures of God are hidden in the sign of Jonah? Hear what this
rather obscure and short book, which of all Scripture was singled out
by the Lord Jesus Christ as the sign of His coming, has to tell us about
the momentous work God is doing today through the recounting of a singular
and marvellous episode in the life of the prophet Jonah and the city
of Nineveh.
One of the powerful diabolical doctrines common in the nominal Christian
churches is the one of praying for the lost. It is powerfully deceptive
because it assumes an appearance of great importance, and its practice
seems one of unselfishness, even godliness, yet it produces nothing but
pride and other evils. The doctrine burdens the simple soul with an altogether
useless, uncalled for task and subtly sabotages obedience to God in an
apparently wonderful way. Neutralizing obedience, the unwary soul becomes
shipwrecked in the faith, not knowing what hit him. Let us expose the
false angel of light in yet another of his delusive teachings, shall
we?
If Satan can sow tares among the children of God in order to sift
them, why not a false story in the Word of God to do the same? Here is
such
a story,
identified for what is by its nature and the fruit it produces.
There are some blatant additions and corruptions in the Book of Matthew.
Why should anyone be surprised that the enemy sows tares in the good
field, an illustration given to us by the Lord Jesus Christ? We need
to recognize what is not of God and not let it interfere with what is.
Why does the Gospel of Luke report a repentant thief on the cross with
Jesus, when Matthew and Mark report both thieves railing on the Lord?
The answer is simple: The Book of Luke has suffered the machinations
of men who would subtly persuade their fellows to believe fables that
deceive and enslave.
Men have corrupted John's writings in two major incidents.
Though a small amount in the overall text, it only takes a little leaven
to leaven the whole lump. Those who put their trust in the Lord, however,
obeying Him and His commandments, will be kept in the truth.
Muslims have proclaimed that Muhammad is the prophet prophesied
by Moses who would have a relationship to God and the people similar
to what Moses had. In this part we examine this claim according to
the characteristics of Moses and his ministry, and consider the matter
of the identity of this prophet.
In this part I further distinguish the differences between the Messiah
and that prophet. Many confuse the two, which leads to erroneous
conclusions, expectations, and decisions, thus withholding from them
the release, freedom, joy, and power of the Truth. With truth and
clarity of vision, according to Scripture, the confusion is eliminated
and I identify who that prophet is.
Although this document will “prove” that we are a “cult,” seeing
that our beliefs and practices are in some cases quite contrary to
nominal Christendom, we are often suspected, accused of, and condemned
as a cult for many other reasons. There are so many false rumors
of us that I could spend my time addressing those alone. That is
not the purpose of this paper. The purpose, rather than fighting
the false, is to bear witness to the Truth.
Here we answer a series of questions some scallywags conceived,
intending to destroy the validity of the Law of God. By ridiculing
the notion of modern-day use of certain laws cited in the Book of
Leviticus, the authors try to prove that the Word of God against
homosexuality is outdated and silly. Sinners, fools, and liars would
like to believe these things, and may have opportunity to do so,
to their destruction, but God always has the last Word.
There is the prevalent, yet false and mortal notion that believers
can eat what and as they please because they are Christians, have
no need to bother about the physical and “have the Great Chemist
within” Who will sort everything out and make it all good simply
because He is asked to do so and thought to have ordained such an
arrangement. Nothing can be farther from the truth, yet is preached
as truth by almost all those who name His Name. There is clear direction
as to what a believer's diet should be.
There is what God commanded in His wisdom through Moses regarding
food, and then there is what the religious have made of that, which
they call “kosher.” The two are very different, and there
is much more than food at stake.
Tithes and Offerings - Are They
for Today?
(Group of Writings and Correspondences)
Here is the teaching the Lord has given us, by revelation and experience,
on this important matter.
What is a believer in Christ to do with what is called Christian
music today? What about music in general? Some thoughts, considerations,
and practical advice for those on the path of truth.
There are those who believe only in the King James Version of the
Bible. They declare that all other versions are corrupt
or fall short in some way. Many of these declare that the
KJV is perfect to the letter, without error. Such a notion is the
result of nothing more than religiosity, ignorance, and pride. This
writing will show that those who so revere the KJV
as being
the perfect Word of God are in idolatry of the Bible,
offending in the Second Commandment, and therefore, as James declares,
all the Commandments.
Some think Jesus paid the Devil to ransom us back to God. Does one
pay a thief for stolen goods? Some pirates may get away with it,
but that’s not how it works with God.
Instead of doing what they ought to do, many believers both real
and so-called, are spending their time, money and energies propagating
tales of conspiracies, both real and imagined (mostly the latter).
While few rocks conceal a snake, conspiratorialists suspect a snake
under every rock. What does the Lord have to say and what should
be the Christian attitude and stance concerning conspiracy theories?
Man, is God ultimately after your prepuce, with which He created
you? Many are the aspiring teachers of the law. As the Scriptures
declare:
"But the end of the commandment is love out of a pure heart, and
a good conscience, and faith unfeigned, from which some, having swerved,
have turned aside to foolish talking, desiring to be teachers of
the law, neither understanding what they say nor that which they
affirm" (1 Timothy 1:5-7 MKJV).
And: "For being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to
establish their own righteousness, they didn't subject themselves
to the righteousness of God. For Messiah is the fulfillment of the
law for righteousness to everyone who believes" (Romans 10:3-4 HNV).
This story is reported to be not included in the “earliest
and most reliable ancient manuscripts” and that “other
ancient witnesses do not have John 7:53 - 8:11.” There has
been great debate over the centuries as to whether or not the story
of the woman caught in adultery and brought before the Lord really
happened, and if so, whether or not it should be included in the
original gospel of John (or in any other). How should one determine,
first of all, whether or not it is true? There are many who revere
those things written in the Scriptures, not because of the truth
expressed in them, but because they are in the Bible. Such an attitude
is plainly biased; the sin is called “Bibliolatry.”
When some hear that we preach Jesus Christ will reconcile all people
to Himself, they become offended and exclaim: “If
all are going to be saved, what was the point of Jesus Christ dying
on the cross for us?” If that is your thought,
you need to read our answer to... the most foolish of questions.
Contrary to those who do not have the Spirit of God, love does not
find its zenith in the flesh, the physical bed, or even in a marriage.
True love is not about sex and sleeping together. Therefore the custom
of the husband and wife slumbering together is an unjustified burden,
robbing the family of much good, contributing little more than two
keeping warm more easily than one when it is cold. Love one another,
trash vain and hurtful tradition, get some good sleep, rest, and
enjoy one another afresh each day with energy, respect, and love.
Since Cain killed his brother and left the farm, he has come up
with many schemes to sabotage farmers while enriching himself. Just
as it seems he has finally prevailed once and for all, a reversal
unlike anything you have ever seen is barreling down the pike to
restore the original order. Will you be steamrolled or leading the
parade?
If anyone has ears to hear, the perfect diet is truly possible and
available. What is crucial is the sure foundation, which is what
is missing in every other diet. Do you believe me? You need to believe
me, if you are to avail yourself of it. In principle, not only does
this writing apply to eating, but to all addictions, bad habits,
and problems that exist, because the principles are foundational. “If
you can believe, all things are possible to
him that believes,” said Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Without
faith in these principles, failure is guaranteed; with faith and
obedience in these principles, success is guaranteed.
Is it a weed or is it a valuable herb? Is it helpful or harmful?
Does it give life or take it? Is religion good or is it bad?
Are we more interested in appearance or in substance? Was Jesus
Christ merely a good man or is He the Messiah? Are we fools to
commit ourselves to Him or is it the best thing that could happen
to any person? We love the dandelion!
How quick men are to judge, seeing faults in others but not
themselves. Here is a satirical look at the many verbal and mental
examples of self-importance and contradiction in us all, until
the beams are removed from our eyes.
An expose of the company and its philosophies and yes, religion
expressed in its dealings with all the world. This paper not
only exposes the substance of this company and affiliates in
social, financial, psychological, spiritual and other terms but
offers the victims (failed distributors) of its enterprises explanation
and consolation.
We receive well-meaning mass circulated stories
meant to inspire, but which, through sheer artificiality, misplaced
affections, mistaken notions, and contrived meanings, provide
us, and now you, with abundant material for other valuable lessons
not intended.
