Don't fellowship with sinning Christians

 

The church I used to attend was probably very similar to your church. Everyone believed the Bible, AND everyone also openly confessed that they were sinners, saved by grace. EVERYONE believed this! When Jesus called me to leave that church, He gave me a specific Bible verse to rebuke them with and tell them why I could no longer be with them. They could buy no means refute the Bible verse because it was in THEIR own Bible that THEY said they believed emphatically! The verse is 1 Corinthians 5:11-13; "But now I have written to you NOT to keep company with anyone named a brother who is sexually immoral or Covetous or an idolater or a reveler or a drunkard or an extortioner, not even to eat with such a person. For what have I to do with judging those who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside?  But those who are outside God judges. Therefore put AWAY from yourselves the evil person."

You can repent

 

You Can Repent  LET JESUS HAVE THE FINAL WORD

Well praise Jesus today everyone.  There is a pretty common question that I am hearing as of recently, and that is, “Can I repent?”  “Do I have hope”… See, a lot of people since Covid-19 has started have fallen into depression and people have started to realize the difference between following God and following the world and some people feel completely hopeless and stuck in the world, and a lot of people are to the point that they just don’t think that God will receive them, they have done things that they don’t thing they can find forgiveness for or that God can accept them back.  And what I see is a lot of people deciding for God, they decide themselves that they are worthless, that God won’t receive them, and they are convinced that they have no hope.  And then as soon as that happens they have suicidal thoughts, they are very depressed and they are ready to take their own life.  Now, if you think about this reasonably, that is exactly what satan would want, but would your Father in HEAVEN want that?  Would Jesus have you still alive, on this earth to condemn you, to make you feel hopeless and just preparing for you to die so that you can go to hell?  Of course NOT!  We know that God does not take any pleasure in a single soul gong to hell.  And in reality Jesus quickly forgives our sin, and he EASILY forgives our sin.  And He is ready to forgive YOU and to cleanse YOU from your unrighteousness IF you are willing to come to HIM and be cleaned.  Now that is the big question ARE YOU READY TO BE CLEANED?  A lot of purging has been happening.  The true church has been being purged, meaning being cleaned of her sins, being purged of unrighteousness and a lot of things over the last 3, 4, years have been coming out in regards to the impurities in the church.  God has been showing the world the difference between purity, His true children and hypocrisy, those in dead religion.  (Revelation of TRUTH) was starting to be even more revealed through covid and all these things, churches being SHUT DOWN.  Clearly the true church is NOT the organization of men.  Men can get tother and they can say: “This is the church this is the body of Christ, we are gathered together under this roof…”  But how can the body of Christ EVER be shut down?  If we truly are a spiritual body, if we truly are God’s children, and connected to HIM in the spiritual realm, NOTHING should separate us from HIM and HIS LOVE and HIS protection and His provision, nothing should separate us from being part of HIS BODY!  But you see during this hour of covid churches being disconnected, being shut down, people not being allowed to enter into those places.  AND THIS IS ACTUALLY A WONDERFUL THING THAT HAPPEND GUYS!  People think it is Christian persecution, but in realty it is the HAND OF GOD.  God is giving YOU A CHANCE to be separate from hypocrisy, separate from dead religion, separate from even your own family.  Time to be ALONE and to THINK, time to REPENT!  Time to repair your own heart, to get your own life in order if you want to!  Jesus WILL take you back He will receive you if you are willing to go to Him.   So don’t decide for yourself (that you are going to hell).  People will say; “Well, I already got the shots, and then I have got this that and the other…”  Well don’t decide for yourself that you are condemned)  Somewhere it's written about how if our own heart condemns us… (1 John 3:20)  A lot of people’s hearts condemn them, and that excludes them from entering into the Kingdom of God.  But they haven’t heart it from Jesus.  Jesus hasn’t rejected them.  If Jesus rejects you THEN you have a problem.  But don’t just ASSUME that Jesus Christ is going to reject you.  A lot of people say; “Well how can I reach God, I am a sinner, all my life I’ve been a sinner and I know God won’t hear the prayer of sinners…”  Well, He KNOWS the HEARTS OF MEN, and He knows IF YOU DESIRE righteousness!  So, if you are a sinner today but you desire righteousness, then the Lord will start purifying your heart today.  And He WILL hear your prayer.  He will purge you of your unrighteousness and your prayers WILL BE HEARD!  But those who continue to sin and who think they are FINE before God, they are content with their churches, their DEAD RELIGION, they are content with a LUKEWARM lifestyle, they are not concerned with getting right with God, THOSE people ARE GOING TO BE REJECTED.  They are going to find themselves without oil, without light and without ENTRY into God’s Kingdom.  So, if I can say anything right now it would be LET JESUS HAVE THE FINAL WORD.  Don’t let your heart condemn you.  Sure we have all done bad things, sure we have all fallen short of the glory of God, and NONE of us will enter heaven by our OWN good works, or by the arm of our flesh.  BUT LET JESUS HAVE THE FINAL SAY IN YOUR LIFE, NOT YOURSELF!  Because a LOT of people are condemning themselves, (Judas did this too by the way) and then they have NO HOPE because they are just ready to go off and crawl into a hole and die.  It would be better that you put your life, your emotions, your wellbeing in the HANDS OF JESUS CHRIST and let HIM deal with you.  That way IF you do have hope, you WILL have hope.  But what happens if you do have some hope, but you condemn yourself?  If that happens, if you condemn yourself and you say; “I can’t pray anymore, I know God will send me to hell, I know He rejects me…”  THEN what you will do is you will walk away from your ONLY salvation, because you are convinced that God will reject you anyway, (WHICH IS A LIE) And then you won’t cry out to Jesus, you won’t ask Him for help, you will go your own way and you will just die, AND THAT WILL BE EXACTLY WHAT sATAN WANTS ANYWAY!  All of this to say, you would be FAR better of putting yourself in the hands of Jesus, asking Him to HELP YOU, to PICK YOU UP, to GIVE YOU LIFE.  You have to have a WORD FROM GOD!  Don’t buy the devils lie that Jesus won’t hear you because you are a sinner.  If you desire repentance, JESUS CAN FORGIVE YOU.  HE WILL FORGIVE YOU.  He EASILY FORGIVES sinners who desire holiness!   He sees your heart.  HE SEES WHO YOU WILL BECOME!  And He is willing to pick you up, to pure you, to purify you and to put you in NEW garments.  So don’t assume.  Don’t walk away from the LORD.  Don’t stop praying.  Don’t become discouraged in this hour.  Rather pray, push your way through to Jesus and don’t give up hope.  May the grace of Jesus be with you.

Women's Place in the Church

 

There are some Christians who are very confused about the place of women in the body of Christ. The main concern here is to be in submission to Jesus. If you are a woman and you are in submission to Jesus then don't let anyone shut you up or stop you from speaking the truth or sharing your testimony. The problem in the early church remains the SAME today for many "Christian" women;  These women are out of line with gossip, busy bodies, lustful, and who want to lord authority over men for manipulative purposes.  When men and women both are disconnected from the Spirit of God everything is messed up. If you want everything to fall into place and it to make sense, then  get to know Jesus and then everything just works quite properly.

Reason for the scriptures and need for revelation

Reason for the Scriptures and the Need of Revelation

The Scriptures that we have today that are recorded in our Bibles were recorded by men like me who loved the SPIRIT OF GOD, who obeyed GOD and wanted other people to REPENT and have LIFE!  Those early prophets and disciples of Jesus did not write the Scriptures for their OWN gratification, or that people would honor THEM, they didn’t care what other people thought about them, they didn’t care if their writings were revered (worshiped by the religious world) They wanted people to REPENT and they warned people that if they didn’t repent God would send them to HELL.  A lot of Christians today, they revere and they elevate the Bible, but if the prophets of old and the early disciples were alive today, they would disagree with them, they would harm them in the same way that the Pharisees harmed the early disciples and persecuted them, and killed Jesus.  It is very hypocritical that the church culture reveres and elevates the Bible, but hates the TRUE BODY OF CHRIST.  You know, there are some Christians that feel very condemned if they hear from God, they think that if they write anything down, that they are hearing from God, that maybe it’s like they are adding to the book of Revelation.  There is that Scripture in Revelation that says whoever adds to this book, God will add to them the plagues recorded in this book… and many Christians think that if they hear anything about revelation, that is an active relationship from God, bringing them revelation, that they can’t write it down because they would be condemned, that they would be adding to the book of Revelation.  That is a lie from satan.  The book of Acts, is the Acts of the apostles, the acts of the early Christians, that is the disciples of Jesus, and that book today is STILL being recorded.  We are Jesus’s disciples and our lives are still being recorded, the things that we do and say are PART of the Acts of the Disciples.  And if we write down the things that the Lord teaches us, it can help us to remember the things that the Holy Spirit is teaching us, and it can also help others.  By NO WAY is that against God.  You NEED to have revelation from God, NEW REVELATION, revelation that comes to YOU every day!  Of course, there is Revelation in the Scriptures that will not be changed and should never be (tampered, altered) touched or manipulated or controlled.  But also God wants a living relationship with you, He wants to give you revelations about your marriage, revelations about your job, where you should live, your every day life… and you need to be hearing from HIM, and if you are not, you are in trouble.  A lot of Christians, they read the Bible, and they THINK they’re hearing from the Word of God, but they don’t have ANY LIVING REVELATION, they don’t know the LIVING WORD OF GOD!  And because of that they don’t have LIFE, they don’t have the living words of Jesus Christ in their heart.  So, the question is, do you hear from Jesus?  Do you have a real relationship with Him?  Do you KNOW the Living God and is He guiding you and giving you revelation, direction, His PEACE every single day?  Or are you like the LOST CHILDREN OF CHURCH that continue to follow dead religion, thinking that they have life because they have the Scriptures?  They refuse to come to Jesus, but they elevate the Scriptures, thinking that THAT will save them.  Don’t be deceived by the deception of the scriptures.  Rather come into the TRUTH, get to know JESUS CHRIST FOR REAL!  He is ALIVE and He will lead you and guide you each and every day because HE IS THE ALIVE!  May the grace of Jesus be with you.

The problem with rapping, rocking or partying for Jesus

 Jesus did not call us to try to look "cool" and rap/rock/party etc... about the kingdom of God, to try and make His house look appealing, showy or post-modern from the outside. Jesus does not call us to take the limelight. Rather Jesus calls us to the HOLY life. (Which apparently isn't very cool these days)  He calls us to make disciples who will ALSO be serious about Him, NOT about music, rap, sport, hobby or our clothing or anything else in this WORLD that we THINK we can use to make God's porch more appealing. There is no such thing. There is only one way and it is the LORD'S way or the highway. Proclaim Jesus Christ from your OWN MOUTH in a serious way and people will listen. Take repentance seriously, take your own relationship with Jesus very seriously and others will see your testimony as genuine and true!  But if you mix your so-called "testimony" with cheap gimmicks and tricks, then before you know it, you'll be working for Satan quite effectively, yet believing you're still a good Christian.
