Easter

some folks think they know God’s word and will ban me every time I post truth on their site. they say, the KJV has error, for it uses the word ‘EASTER’ in Acts 12….and they say it should be passover.

see their own ignorance causes them to call the word of God a lie.
No, that word is NOT PASSOVER.

the wicked herold was NOT honouring passover, or Jesus’ resurrection or anything else good.

He was killing the apostles and you think he was going to honour a christain thing and wait till they had their egg hunts before he proceeded to kill Peter?

such ignorance.

that wicked murderer was not honouring anything to do with Jesus.

It was HIS WICKED DEVIL WORSHIP HE WAS HONOURING; IT WAS EASTER.

Yes, folks, the true Church has nothing to do with this ungodly heathen holiday. it was the wicked king Herold that was doing EASTER.

so now, what are you?

and I was banned for standing up for this truth. sure, they think they are on top of the ladder with truth….they have nothing but a Pharisees self glorying.

There is no such thing as easter or any other ‘holiday’, or ball games or such, in Heaven.
Folks are either so ignorant of truth, or they are trying to tear Heaven down to become the carnal mess that this earth is in.

after all, these holidays are DEVIL WORSHIP. so why would it be in heaven? you people who wish to go to heaven had better get concerned with the truth and study to show yourselves approved to God.

No devil worshiper is in or going to heaven.

Who Is Abaddon?

Build on the True Foundation

Date Posted:09/10/2019 7:47 PM

Who is Abbadon

Now we have people telling us Abaddon is Satan or some other evil being. I ask them to bring forth some Scripture showing this to be true.

First you must see that the trumpets of Revelation are the wrath of the Lamb. So who is the Lamb bringing his wrath upon? The servants of Satan of course, the children of the wicked one.

If you read Jer. 50 and 51 you will find that God said His people are his weapons of war. With his people he destroys the wicked.

Now with that established, let’s go into Revelation for proof of who this mighty angel is who binds Satan and cast him into the pit and shuts his up.

I have already proven by the Word that the locusts under the fifth trumpet are those horses in Joel two which is the powerful army of God going out to destroy the evil ones off this earth. Also go to Isa. 33 for more proof.

I have also proven that the bottomless pit is the whore church. Jer. 50 told God’s people to OPEN HER UP. The purpose of opening her up is to bring the wrath of the Lamb upon her.

Look at Rev. 9:1–a star fell from heaven unto the earth and the key of the bottomless pit was given to HIM. Keep this in mind — this Being who came upon earth to do a work for God, now possess the key of the pit.

He used this mysterious ’key’ to OPEN HER UP. He fulfilled the command given in Jer. 50 to open her up.

Right now, I am not dealing with the work of these mighty ones likened unto locusts. I am dealing with this one who has this KEY. This KEY is the answer and clue as to who this mighty Being is.

We haven’t really discussed the horses under the 6th trumpet; but I can assure you it is only more of these two witnesses job of bringing the wrath of the Lamb upon Babylon.

The king over them is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name is Abaddon or Apollyon.

Remember, Jesus has a new name which no man knows.

Rev. 19:11–And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth JUDGE AND MAKE WAR.

Now, I ask you , who is this? Is this an evil being?  Who is THIS ONE?

You seem to think that because Abaddon is a destroyer, it proves Him to be Satan —- then how bout this one? It said it is righteousness that this one is JUDGING AND MAKING WAR.

v15–And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with is he should smite — What? — SMITE–the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and HE TREADETH the winepress of the FIERCENESS AND WRATH of Almighty God.

v16–And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

Now is there any question as to who this one is? It is the same one who is making war and smiting the nations. It is Jesus.

v17–An angel calls the fowls to come and eat the flesh of kings, captains, men and horses, and men both small and great.

WHAT?

 EAT THEM UP. Wow. This is an angel of God calling them to come and EAT THESE PEOPLE.

Now, watch this next verse:

Rev. 20:1–And I saw an angel come down from heaven, HAVING THE KEY OF THE BOTTOMLESS PIT and a great chain in his hand.

Now, If this is not the same angel of trumpet 5, to whom was given the key of the bottomless pit, I ask you how and when did the key be taken away from Abaddon and given to this one? Got any Scripture for it?

Don’t come trying to tell me, unless you have the Word of God saying it.

You can bring forth tons of twisted words and deceive the hearts of those who do not know the Word; but you cannot deceive those to whom God has given the truth.

Go back to Rev. 9:1—this angel who fell to the earth FROM HEAVEN –was given the key of the bottomless pit. With this key he opened up the pit—— so this makes him the angel of the pit– right?

v11–these horses going to battle as scorpions against Satan’s army has this mighty angel as their KING. He is the angel of the pit; he is KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.

Now back to chapter 20. This angel comes down from Heaven — showing he still had access to Heaven – he had not fallen down as one who is away from God — he had fallen upon evil ones to bring them to judgment.

He comes down from Heaven and has the KEY of the bottomless pit and a great chain and he lays hold on the devil, satan, dragon, serpent, all the same being ( it is really a whole kingdom)–and bounds him (Satan) a thousand years.

And cast him into the bottomless pit, and SHUTS HIM UP. WOW!! HE SHUT SATAN UP. He closed his lying, deceiving mouth up. That is some more power, to shut up Satan’s lying mouth. All over this whole earth, Satan has been shut up. Isn’t that marvelous — we will not hear his lying mouths for a thousand years. No more deception.

But who did this?  The angel who had the KEY OF THE BOTTOMLESS PIT, ABADDON.

And you say this is Satan himself? MY, my. such deception and darkness.

Anyone here care to cast your vote as to who this mighty angel who shuts up Satan is?

The Locusts of Revelation 9

the most misunderstood parts of Revelation. i have never heard anyone else who knew this truth]

The Locusts of Revelation Nine

Hello everyone. Let’s study this in Rev. 9 for a minute.

Proverbs tells us that a WHORE is a deep PIT. Where is a Scripture telling us that HELL is the pit? Remember that we must go by the written Word.
Pro. 22:14–The mouth of strange women is a deep PIT: he that is abhorred of the LORD shall fall therein.
They fell because they were caught in the trap of the lies of this strange ‘woman’ — does not mean a natural woman = a church– so men are also this strange woman. Any man who teaches lies is a part of this strange woman.
These lying men are to God, WOMEN — so they cannot teach the Word. All of us who have truth are a MAN to God = we are the NEW MAN IN CHRIST JESUS (has not one thing to do with what we are in the flesh.)

Pro. 23:27—For a WHORE (whore church, not a female harlot)-is a DEEP DITCH (or pit)-and a strange woman is a narrow PIT.
Now, there are you two required two witnesses proving that this whore church is the bottomless pit.

Smoke is a symbol in the Word. It sometimes represents the glory of God. At other times it represents the clouding of false words.

The sun represents grace and Jesus.

Now go back to verse one: a ‘star’ (star represents an angel)–came and opened this bottomless pit. See the fact that it was ‘bottomless’ shows it was not on the true foundation; it had no foundation or truth.

So this ‘smoke’ or cloud of words (same thing as the water which came out of the mouth of the dragon) did

WHAT?
This ‘smoke’ out of this whore church DARKENED the sun and the air. Air represents where the spirits work; Satan is the prince of the power of the AIR.
So, these false words, or smoke, darkened the truth to people. They could not see or understand truth.

Now Back to Rev. 9:3—and there CAME OUT of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given POWER, AS the scorpions of the earth have power.
Let’s examine this verse closely.

God said, come OUT of HER my people. See? This is where they (his people) obeyed this call = they CAME OUT OF HER —— THEY CAME OUT OF HER SMOKE = HER FALSE TEACHINGS.

They were given POWER AS the Scorpions of the earth have power. Jesus called the Pharisees and hypocrites – SCORPIONS – and SERPENTS.

They had power of destruction. So, these who came out of her false teachings will be given the same kind of power that those earthly SCORPIONS had been having. He will give to His witnesses the POWER to destroy THEM. Do unto HER as she has done.
Is this not in the Word?
Look at Rev. 11:3–I will give POWER unto my two witnesses,………

V5–And if any man will hurt them, FIRE proceedeth OUT OF THEIR MOUTH, and devoureth their enemies….

Here God’s people will be doing to her as she has done; and double it to her.

Go back to Rev. 6:16–And said to the mountains and rocks, fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the WRATH OF THE LAMB:

V17–For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

The next thing following is the sealing of his witnesses — then the Trumpets, which is the Wrath of the Lamb.

So this is under the 5th Trumpet — this is the Wrath of the LAMB — not the working of Satan against God’s people.

Now look at Rev. 9:4– who are these locusts told to hurt?

Here is your clue —And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but ONLY THOSE MEN WHICH HAVE NOT THE SEAL OF GOD in their foreheads.

V5–…..Their torment was AS the torment of a SCORPION, when he striketh a man.

Notice it did not say these WERE scorpions —– it said they were like scorpions – in other words, doing as they had been done — doing to Babylon as she had done.

V3–here it also said they had power AS the scorpions had power — it did not say they were scorpions — it said they now had the power to hurt people. Go back to cp. 11- they have been commanded to hurt their enemies.
V7–The shapes of the ‘locusts’ were like unto HORSES prepared unto battle;

Here go to Joel 2:1–Blow ye the TRUMPET (wrath of the Lamb)–in Zion, (the true church)–and sound an alarm in my holy mountain. Let everyone tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh —-

This is the day of wrath.

For those of you not familiar with Joel 2, you really should get into this and study it. It is very important for the true people of God. This chapter is telling about the wrath of the Lamb which the witness of God will do. It is the same as Rev. 9.
V2 shows the dark day- a day of CLOUDS and of thick darkness – that in Rev. 9— it tells that this group of people are the greatest and strongest people who have ever been — so I ask you — is it Satan’s people — or God’s people?

v3–A fire devoureth before them — this is Rev. 11—the fire coming out of their mouth and DEVOURING their enemies.

Now to identify those hoses in Rev. 9–

Joel 2:4–The appearance of them is as the appearance of HORSES; and as horsemen, so shall they run.

V5…like the noise of a FLAME of FIRE that devoureth the STUBBLE, (WHAT?) — DEVOURETH WHAT? STUBBLE.
V7–they are like men of war. Did not Rev. say horses prepared unto battle?
O.K. Let’s show what STUBBLE is.
We know Paul said the works which will be BURNED up are — wood–hay— and STUBBLE.
Isa. 5:24–Therefore as the fire DEVOURETH the STUBBLE, (see this is speaking of the same thing as Joel)-……so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as DUST: because they have cast away the law of the LORD of hosts, and despised the WORD of the Holy One of Israel.
This shows that the STUBBLE are the ones who despise the Word of God. So why would false teachers devour them?
Isa. 47 speaks of Babylon— all her witchcrafts —- v14—Behold, they shall be as STUBBLE; the FIRE shall burn them….. this goes on to show Rev. 18-the destruction of Babylon.

Now for the clincher —- Obad. 18-And the house of Jacob shall be a FIRE, and house of Joseph a FLAME, and the house of Esau for STUBBLE, and they shall kindle in them, and DEVOUR them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the LORD hath spoken it.
So, there is proof that the STUBBLE is Satan’s kingdom.

It is also proof that it is God’s people destroying them; burning them up. This is the work of those LOCUSTS in Rev. 9.

Back to Joel 2:10–The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the SUN AND THE MOON shall be DARK, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:

v11—The LORD shall utter his voice before his ARMY;
They are like horses prepared unto BATTLE = God’s ARMY.
Jere. said God’s people are his weapons of war and destruction.
Joel 2:9–They shall run TO AND FRO in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a THIEF. (HERE IS YOUR COMING LIKE A THIEF — IT IS THESE WITNESSES OR LOCUSTS).

Now another Scripture for this event when the witnesses of Jesus destroy Satan’s kingdom.

Isa. 33:3–At the noise of the tumult the people fled; at the lifting up of THYSELF the nations were scattered.

v4– and your (speaking to Jesus)- spoil shall be gathered LIKE the gathering of the caterpiller: as the RUNNING TO AND FRO OF THE LOCUSTS SHALL HE (JESUS) RUN UPON THEM.

Now who were the caterpiller? Those destroyers of God’s vine in Joel one- which was the whore church – that bottomless pit.

So again it is showing that Jesus turns and does LIKE them and destroys them.

See v 4 said that HE (Jesus) runs upon them AS the running to and fro of LOCUSTS— just exactly what Joel 2 said— and just exactly what Rev. 9 said.

It is confirmed in Psalms 149 that it is the saints of God doing this.

Now back to Rev. 9:7–and the shapes of the LOCUSTS were like unto horses prepared unto battle; (already explained)–and on their heads were as it were crowns like GOLD,

Now Gold in the Word represents the glory of God and the truth. Paul said the works which will remain are gold, silver, and precious stones. So this gold is good; it is the knowledge of Truth. It crowns the HEAD or leaders of this group of God’s people.
I ask you, where would FALSE TEACHERS be crowned with GOLD?
AND THEIR FACES WERE AS THE FACES OF MEN.
V8–AND THEY HAD HAIR AS THE HAIR OF WOMEN, AND THEIR TEETH WERE AS THE TEETH OF LIONS.

Now God spoke directly to me years ago and told me these locusts are God’s people. It scared me so bad I jumped up into the air off my chair. I had always heard the lie , that these were demon spirits or false teachers.
I said out loud, God was that You? If so, show me in the word. He brought all the forgoing Scriptures together and many more to me and proved it to me.

Then God told me this is describing the entire group; not an individual. He said the face like men showed that men are in this judgment ministry ; and that the hair like women showed that WOMEN are also in this ministry.

Now anyone who wants to, dispute this with God; he told it to me. He has proven it by the Word. The teeth like lions shows them now into a destroying ministry as the scorpions of the earth have been doing all these years to God’s people.

v 9–They had breastplate as iron — this is that rod of iron we will rule with.

The sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.

Go back to Joel – he said they were as chariots, as horses running to battle — very same words.

The next trumpet is also this group of witnesses; just more about their work of pouring out the wrath of the Lamb on the ungodly.
Now to anyone who doubts the truth of this message and say otherwise, I challenge you to bring forth Scripture proving your standpoint as I have here.

Revelation Study

Rev. 19: 11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
[Heaven opened when Jesus was baptized. Read it and see. John said, I saw heaven opened. It was the beginning of the ministry of Jesus. He was making war against that old law system. he fought it every day.]

12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

[this vesture is showing the blood he shed to take away our sins.]

14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

[this sword is the Word of God that he speaks until he has brought all enemies under his feet.]

16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And Lord Of Lords.

17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;
[Now here is the mystery: the fowls are the people who have come into the spiritual realm. us.
gather to the supper of the Great God? God had a sacrifice for us
what is that? the crucifixion of Jesus.
We must come and EAT HIS FLESH {HIS WORD} AND DRINK HIS BLOOD [ BE BAPTIZED IN HIS NAME}. NO OTHER WAY IS GIVEN.

18 That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.
[God made us kings and priest to God
so Peter, Paul, James, John etc. were these mighty men and the spirit was their horse, everyone has to come and EAT THEIR WORDS TO BE SAVED. Marvelous, isn’t it?

A Higher Calling

A Higher Calling ~ By: Jo Smith ~~ December 7. 2018

Philippians 3:14
I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

1 Corinthians 9:24
Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.

The above is the only two times in all of God’s word that the word ‘prize’ is mentioned. Seems that Paul is the only one who had this great revelation of a high calling which is a great PRIZE.

God has just revealed to me what that higher calling is. He has shown me what that PRIZE IS. You cannot say it is eternal life or the glorified body, for this is not for just one or a special few. But see that Paul said only one would receive this PRIZE. Many are running in this race, but only one will get to that goal or the Mark of that Prize. So what is this prize? What is this higher calling? (Does not mean just 1 person; but it means the ONE who diligently seeks for this prize).

Let’s go back to Moses for a starting place to find this answer.
Exodus 14: 15 And the Lord said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? SPEAK unto the children of Israel, that they go forward: 16 but lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.

(This DIVIDING is part of that high prize; divide the night from the day). Work of Apostles and we who reach this higher calling.

This puzzled me when I first heard it. ‘why cry to me? SPEAK to the children of Israel. God told Moses, why are you crying to me? You can speak and you can divide that sea.

Marvelous. So Moses had advanced beyond having to cry unto the Lord for everything. He had been told by God to just SPEAK AND IT SHALL BE.

Hosea 6:3
Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.

You have a goal to reach. You have 100 miles to travel. You ask directions. Someone said, go right here. That will get you there. So you take that first step and stop. But that only got you a foot down that long road. But it was a start.

So now you wish to end up in heaven and you ask directions. Someone says, just BELIEVE. That will get you there. But that is just the first STEP. That is just a starting place. You must then FOLLOW on to KNOW THE LORD.

You BELIEVE. But you must come to KNOW. It is not the same thing. Would you say, I believe that I have a mother? No. You KNOW that you have a Mother. It is not something you just believe. It is the same way with God. Millions believe but they never follow on to KNOW THE LORD.

Matthew 16:24
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
Over and over and over Jesus told people to FOLLOW me. He did not say BELIEVE ME.

Matthew 19:21
Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.

Here Jesus is speaking of that prize. The way to obtain this prize is to FOLLOW JESUS.

We must follow him all the way. Not to church. Not to a party. Not to prayer. We must follow on till we can SPEAK the Word and it will be.

(Now don’t get me wrong, Prayer is to be used along the way. But I am going to show you a higher calling than Prayer). If you never get beyond praying you did not reach the goal.

Believing is not enough; it must bear fruit: Mark 16:17
And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
These signs MUST FOLLOW believing. This gets you further down that road toward that mark of the prize of the high calling in Christ Jesus. But it is not the end of the way nor is it the prize.

Luke 9:23
And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
Now here we get a few more instructions on how to reach that goal. Deny yourself daily, take up your cross and follow Jesus.

John 10:27
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
You must know the voice of Jesus to follow him. He must know you.

John 12:26
If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.
Now here is a part of that goal you are reaching for…. to be where he is. He could speak and it happened.

Here is more instruction on how to reach this great goal: 1 Timothy 6:11
But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.
Follow after RIGHTEOUSNESS, godliness, faith love patience and meekness. We must obtain these Godly attributes.

This shows you how to help reach that goal:
2 Timothy 2:22
Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
Flee lusts and follow righteousness.

Matthew 9:6
But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.

Read that verse carefully. It did not say, so that ye may know I am God, as many lying preachers say. It said, that ye may KNOW THAT THE SON OF MAN has power on earth to forgive sins.

HE also showed here that he had power to heal the sick. This is part of reaching that end goal. Jesus later told his disciples, whosoever sins you remit they are remitted. Or you may retain them. See, they also had power to do this. It is part of that goal.

Here we see Jesus in full possession of that prize = knowing that what he speaks will be:
John 12:50
And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.

Now I want to show you how Jesus spoke when He had reached that lofty goal for the mark of the Higher calling in God:
John 11: 21 Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
22 But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.
23 Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.

Martha told Jesus, I know that whatsoever you ASK he will give it thee. He, speaking from KNOWING, NOT BELIEVING, said, Thy brother shall rise again.

41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.

42 And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.

43 And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.
44 And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.

Notice something very important to understanding the higher calling… Jesus was not praying here. He was not asking God….
He was thanking God for he said, I knew that you hear me always, but because of the people I said it, that they may believe that you sent me.

Jesus was not trying to make folks believe that he was God; He wanted them to know that God sent him. He had reached that higher calling. He had reached that prize. He knew He could now just SPEAK AND IT WOULD BE DONE. BUT He did not want the glory for himself. He wanted it to still go to God, his Father.

He had reached that place where Moses stood when God said to Moses, why cry to me; just speak to the people.

So Jesus spoke to the dead and the dead arose. He had reached that higher calling.

Now to show you proof of how Paul had reached this lofty goal. (and when I said only one can reach it, that does not mean the number 1. It means the one who truly presses toward that mark. You truly seek it and do all you can to reach it. I have shown here a few of the things one must do to reach this higher calling.)

Acts 13:11
And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.

Notice that Paul did not get down on his knees and pray or stand and pray and ask God to strike this man blind. He just SPOKE IT. He knew he had the faith and the power to do this. He had reached that goal; He had that prize.

Acts 8: 18 And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles’ hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,
19 saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.
20 But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.
21 Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.
22 Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.
23 For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity.

Here Peter exhibits the same high calling: He had the power and knowledge to judge this man and set him apart as defying God. He told this man you have no part with us in this matter. Peter did not have to pray and ask God to show him what to do about this. He already knew.

There are many other instances in the Word of God that prove the actions of one who has reached this higher calling.
But the main one I wish to get to in this message is here:

Psalm 149:
Let the saints be joyful in glory:
let them sing aloud upon their beds.
6
Let the high praises of God be in their mouth,
and a twoedged sword in their hand;
7
to execute vengeance upon the heathen,
and punishments upon the people;
8
to bind their kings with chains,
and their nobles with fetters of iron;
9
to execute upon them the judgment written:
this honour have all his saints.
Praise ye the Lord.

Yes, the ultimate goal is to be in this group of people who are set to bring the wrath of the Lamb on this earth and to cleanse it from all the wickedness, violence and evil that is upon it.

We will know who is and who is not serving God. We will have been given the power to speak destruction to them.
We will have been given the power to execute all the written judgments on them.

We will be SPEAKING this on them. It is something that only those who reach this HIGHER CALLING will be able to understand or do.

Rev 11: 3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.
5 And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.
6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.

See these witnesses of Jesus will have power to SPEAK wrath upon the ungodly. They will have FIRE coming out of their MOUTHS as they SPEAK judgment on this sinful world.
They will not be walking around PRAYING. They will be SPEAKING.

SO THE ABILITY TO SPEAK IS A HIGHER CALLING THAN PRAYING.
KNOWING IS A HIGHER CALLING THAN BELIEVING.

Believing will only get you started. It will not cause you to reach that end goal. You must FOLLOW ON TO KNOW…. YES, KNOW THAT YOU CAN SPEAK AND IT WILL BE….YOU CAN SPEAK TO A STORM AND IT WILL OBEY YOU.

JESUS DID NOT KNEEL AND PRAY AND ASK GOD TO STOP THAT STORM. HE SPOKE TO IT AND IT STOPPED.
I know, most of you think he was God so you will never know any truth.

Praise our Holy God for this great message of a HIGHER CALLING.

Going to Church? or In the Army of God?

going to church is not the same thing as being in the army of God. It is so far from it, you will never even have any idea what it means.
Hence
all the evil flourishes, unhindered, in this world.

too many who say, I am a christian, want nothing more than to be entertained at church on sundays and xmess…
You will not try to gain enough faith to speak or pray against the evils that are destroying this world.

If some of you could begin exercising the power that Jesus gave to his disciples, we could stop satan and his evil army without any trouble at all.

but where is anyone to help? all you church folks want it to hear some singing, a 30 min talk, xmess parties, egg hunts, trunk or treats, new years doings, etc.

You are not even into the things of God at all. not one bit. violence and destruction and crooks are eating away at our very life and you just wait to see how it willl go.

No, Jesus said, bind those evil forces and cast them into outer darkness. tell me which pastor is doing that? which church member is doing that. why do you just sit back and let satan destroy everything?

why do you not rise up and begin doing what Jesus said to do? fight this evil. speak it out of existence. if you say we can’t ADMIT YOU DO NOT BELIEVE.
Jesus said we could and SHOULD.

Is Your Belief of God ?

I will continue to teach this truth, no matter how many rise up against me and hate me. God taught me and God sent me to teach. When the evil holidays mean so much to church folks, they are totally into the laodicean LUKEWARM condition. God hates this.
some will say, ‘well the word ‘easter’ is in scripture. Yep.
so is adultery.
so is murder.
so is stealing.
does that make it right? course not.
easter is recorded ONE TIME in scripture. The deceived JW’s, not knowing how to understand scripture, (along with all the other church folks)… said this is misinterpreted. they say it should be, passover. NOT SO.

Here is the passage. I will show you how people cannot understand what they read, for they WANT IT TO SAY SOMETHING ELSE.

Acts 12King James Version (KJV)

12 Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church.

2 And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.

3 And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)

4 And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.

5 Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.

Now just look at this:
Herod had killed James, AND THIS PLEASED THOSE JEWS, WHOM YOU ALL THINK ARE SO WONDERFUL, AND HAD SO MUCH TRUTH.
all those folks had is what the church folks of today have …=.. a love for idols.

so, seeing it pleased those jews, Herod took Peter and put him in prison,,,, INTENDING…AFTER…EASTER… TO BRING HIM FORTH…TO BE KILLED.

So, who was honoring this idol holiday? the church or Herod?

See, it was the murdering HEROD. It was his pagan holiday.

So where you go to find out what easter really is?

It is not in scripture, so it has to be in lying book of satan…myths and legends.
So what is it? Larry and I have shown this many times: It is no more than the worship or celebration of a false goddess, called the goddess of FERTILITY…or sex.

Yes, folks. this is what you love and are teaching your children to love.

It is NOT CHRISTIAN AND IT IS NOT OF GOD…Neither are any who love this.

Who is the Beast?

Here is a little something I wrote on Yahoo, in answer to a question about who is the beast against God: (I know, as I said, this is just simply not being taught, due to everyone just following the already made-up lies, which have no true Scripture backing….but if you are never exposed to this truth, you will probably never know how to get the real truth)….

I cannot explain enough of this, here, due to not enough space, to show it to you… and I am sure you probably never heard this…..but God revealed it to me. It fits all scripture. If, after you read this, you or anyone else, wishes to learn more on this, email me, and I will give you the link to my site, where I have messages written explaining it.
The fourth kingdom, to rule the world was LAW. Yes, law, under Moses. The first kingdom was the Lion, = Adam. Adam was the head over mankind, until the flood.
After that, the bear kingdom, under NOAH. He was the second head or kingdom.
Then came the kingdom with 4 heads = the three sons of Noah + Abraham.

Then that kingdom which was the worst of all, trampled down the world and took over = law, under moses.

I know. But God revealed this. I know, it is not common knowledge. But it fits the whole Scripture. In Rev. that 1 seven headed beast, is a combination of all these 4, is the seven churches, in Rev.
They are the image of this first beast, the dragon, which is the OT system, under these 7 heads.
But the last one, Moses, (Law), is that terrible 4th kingdom. Those ten horns are its ten commandments, which IF YOU DISOBEY, YOU ARE KILLED.

Jesus abolished this, 11Cor 3. BUT THE CHURCH REVIVED THIS LAW HEAD.

Now that LAW is what spoke against God and wore out the saints. Peter said, in Acts 15, that law was a heavy burden, which no one could bear.

Under law, it is OBEY or be killed. not so in Grace.
those ten commandments are what wears out the saints. if you break ONE YOU ARE GUILTY. so if you go back to law, you FALL FROM GRACE, and will be lost. so said Paul.

The catholic church is part of this NT 7headed beast; but so is all the rest. Only that one true Church, at Pentecost, is a true church. That true Church will return one more time.

But that false church, under LAW, has been killing the saints of God, since Adam deceived Eve.

This will go on until THAT TIMES, TIMES AND HALF TIME… so says Daniel. Then Jesus will do away with that false 7headed church. Read Isa 1… It is a great eye-opener. God HATED THAT OLD LAW SYSTEM. IT SPOKE EVIL AGAINST HIM, FOR HE IS A GOOD OF GRACE. Adam is that ole serpent, who deceived the world and makes them think God wanted law, animal sacrifices and such. But God denies this is several scriptures.

Are You A Child of Satan?

so, what scripture shows egg hunts has anything to do with the resurrection of Jesus? Not one. or is it that you all KNOW it is idolatry and your goddess of fertility means more to you than truth? or Jesus?
Well, at the judgment you will be denied eternal life.
Jesus said FORSAKE THESE IDOLS if you want life.

In the OT, after a person refused to go free, when it was offered, the master bored a hole in the person’s ear. After that, he could NEVER GO FREE.
Scripture says, he that being OFTEN reproved, and hardens his heart and refuses to turn from his SINS, shall be cut off and that without remedy.
Larry and I have both reproved you over and over for these sins, and yet you close your ears and eyes and REFUSE to be corrected.

Jesus will cut you off. I see many already, who refused to be corrected years ago, and are too blind right not to ever come to truth.

When a preacher says, I do not preach for MONEY, and yet he takes a salary, he is a LIAR AND THE TRUTH IS NOT IN HIM.

Yet these same BEASTS are held up in the highest esteem and people who teach truth are totally rejected.
People just HATE TRUTH. They are NOT going to leave their idols and serve the true Jesus. Yet they still believe the lies of their hypocrite preacher/church, THAT THEY ARE SAVED.

God gave me a dream many years ago. I saw the ‘church’ prostituting to get money for the church, and thought it was alright, for they were doing it for the church.
They had halloween carnivals, to get money for the church, and thought it was fine.
They had all kinds of sins going on, to get money for the church, and God called it spiritual adultery.

That is where you all are now with your sinful holidays; pretending it is for Jesus. Yet you cannot find one single scripture for such UNGODLY things.
Proves you are not into God, for His Word is God.

You care not one thing for what God said about anything.

You pay a preacher…it is the mark of the beast.
He takes pay… it is the mark of the beast….yet you cannot tell, for you do not receive revelation from God.
Your lying preacher is certainly not going to show you any truth, for he knows none.

He is a servant of satan,…else he could not lead you into worshiping the goddess of fertility and shaming Jesus that way, saying it is to celebrate his resurrection/

IT IS LIES OF SATAN AND YOU ARE ALL CHILDREN OF SATAN.

Like me or hate me….matters not to me… I am teaching the truth of God and He will show it someday,…the terriorists are at your door,…and still all you can think about is your IDOLS.
Don’t come telling me you are a Christian when you cannot part with your IDOL WORSHIP.

Your Wilderness

Everyone’s ‘wilderness’ is not the same ‘place’.
You ‘think’ that scripture like this…. ‘the woman fled into the wilderness into her place’…. refers to just ONE person or happening.
Not so.
Sure there is a ‘primary’ meaning, BUT,
it also refers to all of us….who conceive that Christ into our own soul.

so then we must grow in Christ till we outgrow the need for that ‘mama’ to nurse us and learn to feed ourselves..

study the Word of God like Jesus commanded us to do so you can learn and GROW.

Then when you finally grow enough, you will be given those two ‘wings’ of the EAGLE so you
can
fly into your wilderness and be fed there and protected from the face of that serpent.

My glorious spiritual food that God gave me just now, before I got up.
How I love receiving that daily food.

Rise Up

You who claim to be Christian, and especially those who claim to have the Holy Ghost, are called to be in the Melchizedek Priesthood. If you do not begin practicing the power and responsibility of this priesthood, you are allowing satan to do his evil work, un-hindered. It is your responsibility to pray, bind and cast out these evil workers and their works.

You should grow up in Christ and begin doing the work God called us to do; else you are going to end up lost.

You are not of the OT Levitical priesthood. So if God made us kings and priests with Jesus, it has to be the M. priesthood, of which Mother Eve is the First and chief priest.

As long as you do the idol practices of your fake church, the holidays and other sins, you are not empowered to act in this priesthood, hence, you are part of the evil, by not standing against it.

Rise up; come out of the fake church; grow up in Christ Jesus and begin exercising this power of the Mel. priesthood.

Jo Smith.

To Be One

We always hear, My Father and I are one.. without people knowing that being ONE means, in harmony, or unity. Wonder why we never hear, We are two? Here it is? (Do you believe the word, or man’s lies?)

John 8: 12Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

13The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true.

14Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.

15Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.

16And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.

17It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.

18I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.

19Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also.

Above, Jesus very clearly shows that He AND his Father are TWO DIFFERENT INDIVIDUALS. Who will Listen to the word of God?

v16…Jesus said, I..AM..NOT. ALONE. My father is with me and bears witness of me. He did not bear witness of himself.

The word, BOTH, means two of a thing. Jesus said, Now have they seen and hated BOTH ME AND MY FATHER. this is not the only reference to them being BOTH. So why does certain churches say there is only 1 of them?

h John 8, 43Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.
Those people ‘heard’, (with their natural ears) the words of Jesus. but he said they could not hear his word or understand his speech. Seeing, and hearing, spiritual, means to UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU HEARD. So why do people ‘hear’ the words, “the word became flesh”, and have no idea what it really means? Because they are ‘hearing’ the words of the devil. He said, it means the human BODY OF A MAN, CALLED JESUS.
So you folks always HEAR that; never hear the words of God.

The very same ‘words’ mean two different things. To you carnal minded, it means, God’s word changed into a human BABY.
To the spiritual, who can HEAR THE WORD OF GOD, it means it is a spiritual MESSAGE, SPIRITUAL FOOD; SPIRITUAL MEAT. It is the Words Jesus spoke to us, and those words were given to him by his Father, God.We always hear, My Father and I are one.. without people knowing that being ONE means, in harmony, or unity. Wonder why we never hear, We are two? Here it is? (Do you believe the word, or man’s lies?)

John 8: 12Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

Easter is the Worship of Idols

Moses went up on Mt Sinai, alone, and God came down and talked with the man, Moses. He gave Moses a set of stones, which God himself had written upon.
Moses came down from the mountain, only to find the children of Israel, ALL OF THEM, naked and dancing around a golden calf…idol worship.
They did not wish to hear God’s voice, so he said they would never hear his voice again.

Those idol worshippers never read the word of God. They were not even interested is what was written on those stones.

God came to hate this wicked nation. Now, when a man, church, or anyone teaches stuff which is NOT written in God’s word, they are teaching, believing and living Satan’s word.

Scripture said, examine yourselves and see if you are in the Faith.
How can you do this? Prove that what you believe, teach and live, is written in The Word of God. If not, it is satan’s word and ways.

So now:
Is coloring eggs, hiding them and hunting them, to celebrate a resurrection, even once mentioned in any scripture? do you know?
I seriously doubt that anyone who can partake in this evil worship of the legendary goddess of fertility, which is what that egg hunt is all about, has read the Word of God enough to even know if it is written or not. I do not think you care.

God revealed to me this morning that all who do these evil devil-worship holidays, are the very same as those old Israelites, dancing around their god, that golden calf.

Moses was the only one among them who could hear the voice of God which is the only truth. The rest were blinded and left to die, eternally. God hated them.

Is it the Word of God, or myths and legends? Is putting up a tree and decorating that thing, exchanging gifts, to celebrate some birthday, written in Scripture? Nope. Then it has to be the myths, which of course is satan’s word and ways.

So now…how can you claim to be a Christian, obeying God, and loving his truth, when you are the one dancing around that golden calf = egg hunts; tree decorating, xmess. putting on halloween junk…. is any of this written in God’s word? Of course not.

But the majority of ‘churched ‘ folks have never read God’s word enough to know if it is written or not. They simply do not care for God’s word, hence, they hate God.

You who think you can do it both ways….. serve the true God, and yet still dance around those idols, are the most wicked and deceived people there is. You would be better off just quitting pretending any religion.

If you cannot prove that what you do, believe and act upon, is of God, then you prove that you serve satan and do not care.

When you support any preacher or church which is involved with this golden calf, idol worship, of holidays, making merchandise in the name of your church, you prove that you love satan and his ways. This was forbidden by Jesus, so you serve satan.

Son of David

Date Posted:03/01/2017 6:52 PMCopy HTML

watch this:
Matthew 1:20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

Joseph, thou son of David.
Matthew 9:27 And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou son of David, have mercy on us.

Jesus, thou son of David.
Matthew 12:23 And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?

Not one soul in Scripture ever mistook Jesus to be a god. they always said, he is the son of David, or such.

Matthew 15:22 And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil

do you know more than the scribes?
Mark 12:35 And Jesus answered and said, while he taught in the temple, How say the scribes that Christ is the son of David?
Luke 1:27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary.
Joseph was of the house of David. It never says that Mary was. (she was a Levite).

and to top it all off:

Luke 1:32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:

There we have it…son of the Highest……but also

his father is David.

so now, explain it……

Jesus is Levi

Date Posted:26/04/2015 8:46

Jesus is identified in Scripture as DAVID; HE is called DAVID in several verses. Yep.


But did you know that Jesus is also identified as LEVI, in scripture? Sure.

Mal. 2: 4 And ye shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the Lord of hosts. 5 My covenant was with him of life and peace; and I gave them to him for the fear wherewith he feared me, and was afraid before my name.

6 The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace and equity, and did turn many away from iniquity.

Verse six could only be speaking of Jesus Christ, not the natural man, Levi, Jacob’s son. That man and that priesthood was certainly not holding the law of truth. Grace and TRUTH came by Jesus Christ.

So then, why has this truth been totally missed by EVERYONE? 
This truth, that Jesus was just as much from Levi, family of Aaron, as he was from the tribe of Judah, family of David….. is.. a giant hammer that totally breaks up and destroy the lie that Jesus was a god, an incarnate god, and had no earthly dad…..the thing of virgin birth stops everyone at this point…as though God could not take seed out of a man and place it into a woman.


See, they all think that seed of David came from Mary. Not for one minute.
this is the error people get when they fail to search scripture and seek truth.
they just accept the lies of man, handed down from generation to generation.


they MUST WORSHIP SOME MAN. they cannot depart from man’s lies and hold to God’s truth.

But when it come to worshiping the MAN, CHRIST JESUS, they cannot go there.
and anyone who finds this great pearl or truth, and dares speak it, IS HATED.

God identified himself over and over, in OT Scripture. He told Jacob, “I am God”.


Yet Jesus never one time said those words. Jesus never identified himself as God.


Yes everyone says Jesus was God; all of God, or second person God.

that is nothing but lies of man.

Identify the True Jesus- PT. 2

Date Posted:29/01/2016 6:02 PMCopy HTML

Identity of the true Jesus, part two

Amos 3:7  ..Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.

God has made known everything of his Plans to mankind, by revealing it to his prophets.  Thus, everything of the working of God with earth, or man, has been prophesied beforehand by the OT Prophets.  So, if a doctrine is not in the OT Prophecy it is false.

Jesus was the beginning of fulfilling all those prophecies.  Mat one states that the birth of Jesus was done, so the prophecy in Isa  9:6 could then be fulfilled.

They went down into Egypt, so another prophecy could be fulfilled.  His entire life he was fulfilling the prophecies written in the OT Prophets.  God would do nothing that He had not already told them about, beforehand. 

Psalm 22 clearly shows the crucifixion of Jesus.  Isa 53 speaks of the same thing.  So it was laid out by prophecy.

But, the big question of their day, and the one plaguing the world today…. just who was Jesus?  Jesus himself asked his disciples, who do men say that I am.  He knew it was a question to them.  Some said Elias;  others said it was John risen from the dead.  Some others had gotten it right…they said, He is THAT PROPHET.

So now, what Prophet were they speaking of?  The answer is in Deut  18.   17 And the Lord said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken.

18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.

19 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.

God told Moses,  I will raise them up a PROPHET… from among their BRETHREN,  like unto you, Moses.

Now this solidly proves that God has promised the nation of Israel a prophet, which will come from among their own selves and be like Moses.  But that is not all.

God said, I will put MY WORDS in his mouth.

He shall SPEAK all that I command him.

And whoever does not hearken unto MY WORDS, which this prophet shall SPEAK in my name, I will require it of him.

Strong words.  a great promise.  All Israel waited and looked for this prophet to arrive.  They had gone to John and asked John if he were THAT prophet.  John had said, NO.

I have had a person arguing with me for weeks that John was that prophet, in spite of the fact that he said, NO.

They have told me there is no way Jesus could be that prophet, for Jesus was never identified as a prophet.  See, this is the error people get into when they do not study the Word of God and go by what the Word says.   Do not add to his words:  do not take away from his words. 

So the first thing I will prove in this message is….was Jesus truly THAT PROPHET.

Let’s ask Peter:   Acts 3: 20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:

21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.

22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.

23 And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.

Peter clearly identifies Jesus as being THAT PROPHET spoken of by Moses.

Stephen also spoke of this, just before they stoned him to death.  They had asked him, in Acts 6, if the things they had heard about Jesus was true that he was going to destroy the temple and the things of Moses.  Here is part of his answer: 

 37 This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear.

Stephen is clearly showing that Moses was speaking about Jesus.  They ended up killing him over this conversation.

Did the people of Jesus’ day think of him as a prophet?  There is many instances that prove they did.  

John 9: 17 They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.

This is the blind man that Jesus had healed.  He bore witness that Jesus was a PROPHET.  They knew the prophecy of a coming PROPHET.  They never heard of a coming God robbed in human flesh, as the church teaches.

They never heard of a god incarnate.  They never heard of a god-man.  These things had not been prophesied, so God never intended to do such.

The woman at the well…John 4: 19 The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.

Then she said,  25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.

26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.

Jesus confessed to being the Messias;  he did not deny being a prophet.  He had told her, God is a spirit.  So she did not even consider that this MAN speaking to her was God.

John 7: 40 Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet.

41 Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee?

42 Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?

Now here we have the words of people who knew the prophecies of Jesus.  They said of a TRUTH, this is THE PROPHET.  This the prophet they were looking for;  the one Moses had told them they and better listen to.  Then they bear out another truth, from Scripture….Christ comes of the SEED OF DAVID.

These people knew the word; the prophecies.  This is what they knew God had prophesied to come.  They had never heard of a man, who came from the seed of God and was therefore a god-man.  Not one soul in Scripture bore witness to such a thing as this.

Here is another proof and witness that the people who knew the prophecies of the Word of God, were looking for that prophet which Moses had told them was to come. 

John 6: 14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.

Those people who saw the miracle of Jesus feeding the multitude, did not think this proved him to be a god.  They said, of a TRUTH this is THAT PROPHET THAT SHOULD COME INTO THE WORLD.  So now I have given the needed three witnesses proving, without a doubt, that Jesus was the PROPHET which Moses prophesied of.  So, how do people get the wild idea that Jesus was never identified as a prophet?  and especially the one that Moses told them they must hear, because God would PUT HIS WORDS INTO THE MOUTH OF THIS PROPHET, AND THIS PROPHET WOULD …SPEAK…THE WORDS OF GOD.

People, this is exactly why the world, the hoards of people who fill the churches, do not want to acknowledge that Jesus is THAT PROPHET….THIS PROVES HE WAS NOT THE WORD OF GOD, NOR WAS HE GOD.

God FED HIS WORD TO THIS PROPHET.  It is the same one in Rev   10, who went unto the angel, took the BOOK, (God’s word) and ATE IT.

See, this PROVES that Jesus was not God, was not God’s word, BUT FED ON THE WORD OR SPIRITUAL FLESH OF GOD.

Luke 7: 16 And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet is risen up among us; and, That God hath visited his people.

After Jesus raised the dead son to life, the people said, A great PROPHET is risen up among us.  They did not think Jesus was God, just because he raised this dead man.  But they knew it was the work of God.  They called Jesus a great PROPHET.

Luke 24… after Jesus was risen from the dead and talked with the men on the road to Emmaus, and asked them why they were so sad, they said this: 

 19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:

These men had walked with Jesus before his death.  They knew he was a PROPHET, who worked BEFORE GOD AND ALL THE PEOPLE.  They never once said, Jesus was God.  No one in Scripture ever said that, not even Jesus.

The pharisees wanted to take Jesus for he spake against them.  But :  Mat 21:46 But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet.

The MULTITUDE took Jesus for a PROPHET.  Wonder why?  They knew the OT prophecies.  They never, not one time, no matter how many miracles they saw him do, never did they consider him to be a god, or god robed in flesh, or God in the flesh, or any such foolish doctrine.  it is not once named.  But the hirelings of later years, drug up this false doctrine, and the multitude of blind people accepted it without question;  never looking into the Word of God to see it if is true.  God will judge you all guilty who do not search his Word for his Truth.

Was Jesus conceived from God-seed, or seed of man?

False doctrine claims that God spoke his Word into the womb of Mary and she conceived Jesus this way.  No scripture says this.  It comes from the book of lies.

Here is what Scripture said:  Acts 13: 23..  Of this man’s seed hath God according to his promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:

Now this clearly said that Jesus came from a MAN’S SEED. 

Romans 1: 3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;

This said Jesus was made of the SEED OF DAVID, according to the flesh.  [two witnesses]

2Tim 2:8… Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:

Now this gives us three witnesses that Jesus came from the SEED OF DAVID.

Heb 2:16…For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.

Another witness.

John 7: 42..Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?

Acts 2: 29 Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day.

30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;

[Peter preaching]

Peter clearly shows here that Christ came from the fruit of the LOINS of David.  This had to have passed from a son of David; not Mary.  Women could not be spoken of this way. 

John 1: 45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

John 6: 42  42 And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven?

Now there is two scripture witnesses saying that Jesus was the SON OF JOSEPH.  WHY DOES NO ONE BELIEVE THIS WORD?  [And if you say, step son or adopted son, are you not adding to God’s word to back up a man-made lie?  Of course you are…eating from the book of lies;  whore’s flesh].

Was this prophesied?  Yes! 

Isaiah 11:  1…And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:

2 And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord;

3 And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears:

4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth: with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.

…a ‘rod’ out of the STEM of Jesse, (father of David).

So is it speaking of Mary?  Is the woman called the STEM of a man?  I think not. 

Also, there is no proof that she is from the family of David, but is proven to be of the family of Aaron.

Of the many lies about how Mary conceived Jesus,  I find not one scripture for the lie.  The word did not enter her womb.  God did not enter her womb.  God was not conceived in her womb.  A part human/part god person was not conceived in her.  Not one single person is all of God’s word said they believe these lies.  it is not mentioned.

When Jesus asked Peter, whom do you say that I am, Peter did not say, you are god.  He said you are the Christ, the son of the living God.  This Christ speaks of the resurrection.  it is not Mary’s baby or the man dying on the cross.  The entire church world has been deceived and is in lies till this very day and cannot accept one word of Truth.

Outside their prison cell, they see nothing but Holiness, sanctification, Holy living, no idols, no holidays, no adulteries, no stealing, no one ruling over another; no one being paid to preach or teach. etc.

So, these prisoners love it right where they are and will not leave their prison cell, even though Jesus has unlocked the door for them.  They flat refuse to go outside for they love their lies and idols more than truth.  They would rather eat the flesh of the whore than to have to eat the flesh of Jesus.  They love the book of lies more than the Book of truth.

Jesus said, In the volume of the Book, it is written of ME…so now, go find and show me, from this volume, one word stating that this Jesus is God in flesh;  God incarnate;  conceived in the womb by God-seed; god robed in human flesh; or any of the other lies of their book of lies.   Show me where it is written in the volume of the right Book.  Cannot be done.

Identify the True Jesus

Date Posted:27/01/2016 6:18 PMCopy HTML

Identity of the true Jesus.

God spoke directly to me, years ago, and told me to always use only Scriptural terminology.   The reason this is so important is that if we speak anything concerning God, which is NOT written in Scripture, then we are making a lie.  We are either adding to His word or taking away from it and changing it.  This makes it a lie.

Just because the lie has been told so many times, for so long, and that most people now believe the lie, does NOT MAKE IT TRUE.

Who really wants the truth?  If you do, you must seek the answers solely from written Scripture.  Do not accept anything that you cannot solidly prove with written scripture.

We are commanded by God to prove all things.  So when you hear any doctrine or idea, you must take it to the word of God and see if it is written as told, or not.

Unless you do this, you are accepting the words of satan and do not care.  You will never know the truth if you do this and fail to search the Scriptures, as Jesus told us to do.

So now to day I am going to show you proof that Jesus is the natural son of Joseph.  I will prove that Mary was of the family of Aaron.  In order for Jesus to be of the seed of David he had to be the son of Joseph, as Scripture says he is.

In order for Jesus to be what the world/church teaches, men had to make up a lot of lies.  They know that God cannot die, so in order for Jesus to be able to die, they had to make up a false Jesus.  They say this Jesus has a DUAL NATURE… [LIE #1]

So now, this DUAL NATURE is something you need to prove with written Scripture.   Where is it?  It is in the book of lies 3:4

Did you ever read the book of lies?  Of course you have.  Every time you listen to men preaching the false doctrines of men, you are reading this book of lies.

Lie # 2.  Jesus is 100% man and 100% God.  Ever read this lie?  Sure you have.  It is Lies 5:10.  Read it for yourself.

Lie # 3.  Jesus had no human mind of his own;  His inner man is God.  Book of lies 6:2.

Lie #4.  Jesus is a GodMan.  Book of lies 7:12.

Lie #5.  Jesus is God the son.   Book of lies 8:2.

Lie #6.  Jesus is the second person in the Godhead.  Lies 4:77.

Lie #7.  Jesus is God and the only one.  He is his own father.  Lies 8:33.

Lie #8.  Jesus is God incarnate.  Lies 10:44.

LIE #9.  Jesus was born Dec 25, and wants a birthday party every year, complete with decorated trees and many presents.  Lies 44:32.

Lie #10.  Jesus is the word of God.  Lies 3:66.

Lie # 11.  God spoke his word into the womb of Mary and brought forth a baby, who was part human and part God.  Lies 7: 55.  (Not one word of Scripture says any of this).

Let’s begin proving who the true Jesus is/was, with this verse of WRITTEN SCRIPTURE:

Matthew 1 (KJV):1 The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

This very first verse of the NT said that Jesus is the SON OF DAVID and the son of Abraham.   Now I know most people think this came through his mother, Mary.  But I am going to prove by the word of God, that this is simply not true.

16 And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

See that his geneology is passing through JOSEPH.  Jacob BEGAT Joseph.

21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.

22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:

25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.

The angel told Joseph to call the baby’s name JESUS.  Verse 22 shows that the birth of Jesus was done SO THAT something else could be accomplished…another prophesy could be fulfilled… [all this was done, THAT IT MIGHT be fulfilled]… about the virgin bearing a son and THEY shall call his name EMMANUEL.

Not Jesus;  Emmanuel.  Verse25…she brought forth her son and HE CALLED HIS NAME JESUS; Not emmanuel.  

This Emmanuel is the spiritual SON OF GOD, BROUGHT FORTH BY JESUS CHRIST.  Jesus is this virgin which bore Emmanuel.  I will prove it.  (This is not denying that Mary was a virgin).  But the prophesy in Isa 9:6 is about the virgin JESUS.  He was a virgin to God. 

Now I will show you that the natural birth of Jesus was done SO ANOTHER PROPHESY COULD BE FULFILLED… When it said, that it might be fulfilled…. was showing that this first needed to be done, so the other could be done….same as this verse:

14 When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:

15 And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son.

See here it said they went into Egypt, so this other prophesy could be fulfilled….BUT it was not fulfilled right then, but later.  Same with Jesus being born so later, Emmanuel could come forth.

Luke 1: 5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.

Nothing is Scripture is there without a direct purpose.  When God said, His wife was of the daughters of Aaron, this is for a DIRECT PURPOSE.

27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary.

Notice this identifies JOSEPH as being of the house of DAVID.

If Jesus had a ‘dual nature’ it is the same one I have  = I am a fleshly person with a son of God inside me, by the spirit of God that He has given me.  I have an earthly Dad and a heavenly Father.  So it was with Jesus and this next verse PROVES IT:

32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:

Look at this.  I know, most people are too carnal minded, too blind, too deaf to hear or see what this is really saying…but it is here just the same     = two fathers for Jesus.

…he shall be called  (future tense)… the Son of the Highest…. but the Lord God fave to him the throne of his FATHER…DAVID. 

Now either you must see that this mentions TWO DIFFERENT FATHERS FOR JESUS, or you must call David the highest.  YOU MUST CALL DAVID GOD… Which is it?

36 And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.

Now as I told you, everything in Scripture is there for a direct purpose.  Why did this angel point out the fact that Mary is COUSIN to Elizabeth?  He has already told us that Elizabeth is of the daughters of AARON.  In order for Mary to be her cousin, Mary has to also be from the family of Aaron.  Mary is never identified to be of the family of David and Joseph is.

Matthew 1:20

But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

Here Joseph is clearly told to be the son of David.  This is very important to proving the true Jesus.

Matthew 12:23

And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?

Here Jesus is called the son of David.  He is called this many times in scripture.

Luke 1:27

To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary.

Here is solid proof that Joseph was of the house of DAVID. (very important in proving who Jesus really is or was).

Here is proof that Jesus was of the house of David:  Luke 1:69

And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David;

Luke 2:4

And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)

Joseph was of the house and lineage of David.  Why do you suppose the Word of God goes to this much expression to prove that it is Joseph which is the one from the house of David? It never, not once, says that Mary is of the house or lineage of David.  It shows that she is of the house of Aaron.  (This is important in order for Jesus to be a high priest;  of the family of Aaron;  had to be in order to offer a sin-sacrifice to God).

John 7:42

Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?

Now coming from the SEED of David, means the natural humanity of Jesus was from the family of David.  The SEED shows the fleshly children.  The proof of this is in John 8.  Jesus told the Pharisees, I know you are the SEED of Abraham, but you are not his CHILDREN.

So for Jesus to be of the SEED of David, it means coming from the natural sperm of a man.  (must be blunt and clear for most people are so dull of hearing, they cannot see an inch in front of their noses, when it come to the word of God).

Surely everyone knows that the WOMAN DOES NOT CARRY THE MAN’S SEED?  (do you not know this?)

Romans 1:3

Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;

Now I truly do not know how it could need to be any plainer than the above verse…Jesus was made of the SEED OF DAVID according to the flesh.  …means his fleshly body was from the natural SEED OF DAVID.  Now either it had to come from the son of David, of the house and lineage of David,  JOSEPH, or it had to come from the dead David, laying rotted in a grave.  Which do you think it was?  Can not the Holy Ghost just as easily take seed from Joseph, as to put something into Mary?  How carnal men handle the Word of God.

I asked a person, a few days ago, whose seed did the Holy Ghost put into Mary.  They said,  God seed.  Not so.  this also comes from the Book of lies.

2 Timothy 2:8

Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:

So now, see how many verse from the true Word of God, (not the book of lies)…says that Jesus is of the SEED OF DAVID?  Read this people…SEED OF DAVID…SPERM OF DAVID…DID MARY HAVE THIS?  And even if she did,  she is of the house and lineage of AARON.  If you say no, the you call the word of God a lie.  And you have no proof of anything else.

Acts 13: 22 And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave their testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.

23 Of this man’s seed hath God according to his promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:

So, God had promised David that of his SEED he would raise up a Savior.  How then can the entire church world say Jesus was born from the seed of God?

God is a spirit and does not have physical seed.  He does not beget natural children.  He begat a spiritual Son, Jesus Christ…brought forth at his RESURRECTION.  

33 God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.

Still in Acts 13… the above proves that the day God beget his Son was the day he raised him from the dead.

Doesn’t that agree with Roman 1:3?  Sure it does.   This was Paul preaching. 

Acts 3: 22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.

23 And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.

This proves that Jesus is indeed, the prophet that God told Moses He would raise up, like unto Moses.  People argue with me that Jesus could not be this prophet.  But see here that Peter said he was.  See, they know that when they admit that Jesus is this prophet, that God said, I will put my words into his mouth…they have to see that Jesus is not the Word of God, but God fed his word to Jesus.

Now, Peter preaching:  Acts  2: 29 Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day.

30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;

31 He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.

God had sworn with an oath to David, of the fruit of YOUR LOINS, According to the flesh, HE WOULD RAISE UP CHRIST to sit on his throne.  Does this not fit Mat who said God will give him the throne of his Father, David?

How much Scripture can you safely call a lie?  I think NONE.  But you who claim Jesus had no earthly father have to call all of the above verses, and some others,  A LIE.  Do you dare?  Sure you do…for you all read the Book of lies.

Now to prove that Jesus was a MAN, AND NOT A GOD, still in Acts 2…words of Peter:  22 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:

A MAN, APPROVED OF GOD.  Nope, says the book of lies…Jesus is God and nothing can change that.  We will not listen to the King James Scriptures.  We love the book of lies.

Was Jesus, the Christ, born a son of God, from Mary?  Let’s just see:  Col 1: 18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

FIRSTBORN FROM THE DEAD….so was Mary the dead?   No, the book of lies did not say this, so we will not agree with this…say those who hold that Mary had a baby god.

Is there more witness of this:  sure.  Rev 1: 5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,

So, two witnesses:  Jesus Christ, the first BEGOTTEN OF THE DEAD.

Seed of David…Joseph thy son of David…

Luke 3:23

And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli,

the word here….BEING… means he WAS this…(as was supposed) merely means that the people of his day thought this…but the word BEING, shows that he was the son of Joseph.   But of course the Book of Lies denies this.  So the people believe the book of lies.

John 1:45

Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

John 6:42

And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven?

Not one soul in the days of Jesus was expecting or looking for a godman.  They never heard of such a thing.  It was never prophesied.  They were not looking for a god incarnate.  They never heard of such a thing.  It was not prophesied.

They were looking for a PROPHET like unto Moses, from among their brethren…themselves.

In Hebrews it said he was made in all points like unto his brethren.  He was tempted in all point like us, yet without sin.  God cannot be tempted with sin.

You must call the entire Holy Scripture a lie to hold to your lies that Mary had God-seed implanted in her womb and brought forth a person who was a god, or part god, or any such thing.

You will lose your soul holding to that book of lies.  I have proven every word with written Scripture.  Those of you who disagree, (and I am sure most of you  do)…bring forth one Scripture from the Holy Word saying what you say.  You cannot do it.  So you will cling to the book of lies.

Being Born Again

From: joie  (Original Message)Sent: 7/16/2003 11:17 PM 

There is more to being born again than just having faith in this life. That is a measure of being born of God; but it is not complete until the day of the resurrection. Now just read these Scriptures for proof of this.

John005:024:–Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

005:025 :–Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.

005:026:–For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; 005:027:– And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.

005:028:—Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, 005:029 :-And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.

Now, notice verses 24-27– here Jesus said if we hear his word and believe, we pass from death unto life— but this is speaking of being dead in trespasses and sin; then being given the new spirit life here. This is one step in being born of God. We have that in this life. But, if you call that being born again, then you cannot sin, and you could never be lost. Now, most church people think this is what is meant here. But there are too many Scriptures saying that after you have made this start with God, you can sin and loose out with God. All of Jesus’ parables teach this. The foolish virgins had at one time been with a light; they had at one time had the word; but they went away into sin. Jesus told them to depart into destruction.

Now look at v.25–Jesus said the hour is coming and now is, when the ‘dead’ (meaning those dead in sins)–shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.

This is our coming to Jesus now. In this is a ‘measure’ of life from God; but it is not complete yet.

Then v 28—Here is your proof: Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming (see, another time)—in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, and shall come forth: they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.

Now, this is TWO times of being given LIFE. See, this is TWO DIFFERENT KINDS OF LIFE. The first is spirit life here; to live godly in this present world. That is what you see in the Word as being born of God. BUT– if you go away from that and willfully sin, you will lose this and be lost. So, it is not the complete new birth. He that endureth until the end shall be saved. This is a future tense verb.

So is this: John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power TO BECOME the sons of God, — this is future tense. It is an ‘on-going thing— to become’.

John 003:005:– Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

003:006:– That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 003:007 :Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

003:008:– The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

Here Jesus is speaking of your ‘spirit’ being born; that is what you receive in this life–spirit life. But it is not the new birth; it is a birth of the spirit; — just read on and you will see how this is.

1Peter:001:021:– Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.

001:022:– Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: 001:023:–Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

Now see that v23 said — BEING born again—it is an on-going thing. See that he said you purified your souls in obeying the truth— this is the part of the ‘born of God’ we have in this life.

In the natural, a child is first ‘begotten’ in the womb: now that child is a person at this time; he has a ‘life’; but it is not complete yet; he yet has to be born a full person. Well, it is the same in the spirit life. You are first begotten of God; this is when you pass from being dead in sins to having new life in Christ; this is your souls being purified; but it is not complete yet. You are spiritually ‘in the womb’. It can be aborted.

Eph.001:011:– In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: 001:012:– That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.

001:013 :–In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

001:014:Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

Now, just look at this Scripture: v12–you FIRST trusted in Christ— that is step one.

You trusted AFTER ye heard the truth–

then–AFTER you believed —- Then you were sealed with the Holy Spirit— which is an earnest — keeping you— UNTIL the redemption of the purchased possession— now see that the redemption is not yet?

004:030 :And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

See, here again it said you were sealed UNTIL the day of redemption— proving that this redemption is at another time.

Luke 21:28–And when these things begin to come to pass, THEN look up, and lift up your heads; FOR YOUR REDEMPTION DRAWETH NIGH.

Now, this shows that the redemption was only now drawing near; it had not come yet.

Now, to prove this is to Christians: Romans 8:23–And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the REDEMPTION OF OUR BODY.

Now analyze this: Paul said they who had the firstfruits of the Spirit— this is those we saw in John 3 who were born of the spirit— see had been given ‘spirit’ life–Paul included himself in this group— BUT he said we are WAITING for something else—- the REDEMPTION OF OUR BODY.

See, then that redemption is NOT complete until we are resurrected into immortality.

Hosea 013:013 :–The sorrows of a travailing woman shall come upon him: he is an unwise son; for he should not stay long in the place of the breaking forth of children.

013:014:– I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy plagues; O grave, I will be thy destruction: repentance shall be hid from mine eyes.

Now, this shows a woman in childbirth — meaning the child is not yet born. Where is the place of the breaking forth of children?

I once read this Scripture, years and years ago— I read verse 13— stopped and looked up; without reading the next verse— I asked God, “Where is the place of the breaking forth of children”? God said right back to me, It is coming out of the grave.

Then I looked back down at the next verse- 14– and it said, I will ransom them from the grave; I will REDEEM them.

That is how I first came into this understanding. This is the truth; I lie not.

Now, for some Scriptures showing the difference in the spirit life we have now; and the born again life we will inherit at the resurrection to immortality:

1John 003:009 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 003:010:– In 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.

Now, this says if you are born of God you do not commit sin; cannot sin. Agreed? Do you believe you are born of God? If so do you also believe that you cannot sin?

Then this would contradict where he said IF we sin, we have an advocate. See, it is a difference in the being ‘born’.

v14–We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren.

Now, I ask you, do you believe that you already have a kind of life that you will never die? Some people are so foolish they believe this. But God said it is appointed to us all to die once.

So, if this means you are already born again, and already have the life from which you will never die, then this means you cannot die. Then, why do Christians still die?

See, this having passed from death unto life, is that first move of Jesus in our lives that we started out with in John 5— you were given a life of new spirit life to live Holy here, you passed from being dead in sins– this is a type of new birth; but not the completion of it in coming out with a glorified body like unto His glorious body. People until you do that, you are not born again. You are only born of God into spirit life here; but if you believe this is all there is to it, then you have to agree that one cannot go back into sin and be lost.

You must also believe that you CANNOT sin. There are just too many Scriptures showing and proving that one can go this far with God and then be lost.

It is eternally dangerous to believe otherwise. But if you had already been born again, you could not sin and be lost.

1John 5:18– (another verse saying this)—We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not: but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

There is more than one redemption. Gal. 4: 4–God sent forth his Son…made under the law,

v5–To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.

This is where God brought those under the law into grace so they could be adopted as sons of God. This is done in this life. We are now sons of God; but it doth NOT yet appear WHAT we SHALL be; but when he appeareth, we shall be like him .—~ see? Another CHANGE.

Fall of the Old Testament-PT. 8

Part 8

In this message I will pick back up In Lam. 3. 28. He sitteth alone and keepeth silence, because he hath borne it upon him.

This is speaking of Jesus, as He was all alone at the time of the crucifixion. Both his friends, family and God had forsaken Him and He went there all alone. He had borne that law, that old covenant all alone. He had taken it upon himself. Now He is to pay the price of our deliverance from that law of sin and death.

  1. He putteth his mouth in the dust; if so be there may be hope.

This putting his mouth into the dust speaks of his being a mortal man, a frame of dust. It also speaks of his going into the grave.

  1. He giveth his cheek to him that smiteth him: he is filled full with reproach.

This of course speaks of the time of crucifixion when they smote Jesus and plucked the beard from his face. Thus at that time he was filled full with reproach. All those around him at that time reproached and mocked him.

  1. For the Lord will not cast off forever:

This is Jesus’ hope; his faith that His Father God will not cast him off forever. He had faith that God would bring him out of that grave and give him eternal life.

  1. But though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies.
  2. For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men.
  3. To crush under his feet all the prisoners of the earth.
  4. To turn aside the right of a man before the face of the most High,
  5. To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord approveth not.

These verses are how Jesus comforted himself at this time. He told himself these things and shows that is how we should have faith when we are going through troubles and trials.

  1. Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?
  2. Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil and good?
  3. Wherefore doth a living man complain a man for the punishment of his sins?
  4. Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the Lord.
  5. Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto God in the heavens.

This is the message of repentance of the NT. It is a call to those OT peoples to turn to Jesus, as He becomes our Saviour and our God.

  1. We have transgressed and have rebelled: thou hast not pardoned.
  2. Thou hast covered with anger, and persecuted us: thou hast slain, thou hast not pitied.
  3. Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, that our prayer should not pass through.
  4. Thou hast made us as the offscouring and refuse in the midst of the people.

This is the OT covenant speaking. They had rebelled against God therefore God persecuted them and slew that old covenant without pity. He will never ever pick it back up again. This is not saying God turned away from Jewish people. It is saying He turned away from that old law covenant. Almost every church and minister teaches that God turned away from Jews as individuals and cut them out of salvation. This is just not true. They were the very first ones included and brought into NT true salvation. God only cut off that old way of law keeping as the way to God.

Verse 44 tells that the prayers coming from that old covenant will not go through to God. He will not hear from that law. You must come into Grace and through Jesus to be heard by God.

  1. All our enemies have opened their mouths against us.

This is great. It is speaking of the apostles as the enemies of that old law covenant and they, especially Paul, open wide their mouths against that way of life. See this is the old covenant speaking; not an individual.

  1. Fear and a snare is come upon us, desolation and destruction.
  2. Mine eye Runneth down with rivers of water for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
  3. Mine eye trickleth down, and ceaseth not, without any intermission.
  4. Till the Lord look down, and behold from heaven.
  5. Mine eye affecteth mine heart because of all the daughters of my city.

These verses show Jesus as He cried and wept over the destruction of Jerusalem, that old covenant. This was when Jesus looked down on the city and wept over it.

  1. Mine enemies chased me sore, like a bird, without cause.
  2. They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and cast a stone upon me.
  3. Waters flowed over mine head; then I said, I am cut off.

Verse 52 is Jesus speaking of how his enemies sought to destroy him and kill him. But it is also the old covenant speaking of the NT ministers as they preached the message of turning away from that law covenant unto Grace. They cut that way of life off and buried it.

  1. I called upon thy name, O Lord, out of the low dungeon.
  2. Thou hast heard my voice: hide not thine ear at my breathing, at my cry.

These verses are profound. This is Jesus when he was down in hell crying out to God for deliverance.

Want proof?

Psm. 69:18. Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies.

  1. Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine adversaries are all before thee.
  2. Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.
  3. They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
  4. Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should have been for their welfare, let it become a trap.
  5. Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to shake.
  6. Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.
  7. Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents.
  8. For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded.
  9. Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy righteousness.
  10. Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.

Take the time to read this whole chapter. It is mighty. It is Jesus praying to God before and during his time in hell. See how verse 19 shows it was Jesus who was reproached; he was full of heaviness and none took pity on him at the time of his death. He had no comforters, not even God. He found none.

Verse 21 proves this is Jesus. Verse 22 is his prayer against his enemies, the OT law covenant and those who held to it. The rulers of that law were the very ones who persecuted and destroyed Jesus. But He prayed for that group and covenant to be desolate and none ever dwell in their ‘tents’ [law covenant] again. You cannot ‘live’ for God THERE.

See verse 27 Jesus prayed that this group who cling to law would not come into His righteousness. You cannot come into righteousness by law. It is impossible. In verse 28, by His prayer, he blotted them out of the book of the living. This is where God sealed up that Book of Life in Revelation. Only Jesus could open it back up. And He did.

Psalms 69:1. Save me, O God; for the waters are come in unto my soul.

  1. I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.

This was at the time of Jesus’ death. This is His prayer to God at that time.

  1. I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.
  2. They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head: they that would destroy me, being mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.

Here Jesus shows that he restored fallen man, whom He was not responsible for their falling.

  1. O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from thee.

This is as Jesus took upon himself the sins of the whole world.

  1. Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord God of hosts, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.
  2. Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.
  3. I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother’s children.
  4. For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.

This shows that Jesus came unto his own and they did not know him. It is also identification that this is indeed Jesus being spoken of.

  1. When I wept, and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach.
  2. I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a proverb to them.
  3. They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I was the song of the drunkards.

This shows that the rulers of law [those sitting in the gate] were against him.

  1. But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O Lord, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.
  2. Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
  3. Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.

This is Jesus’ prayer for God to deliver him from death, hell and the grave.

  1. Hear me, O Lord; for thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
  2. And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily.
  3. Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies.
  4. Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine adversaries are all before thee.

Now back to Lam. 3.

  1. Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee: thou saidst, Fear not.
  2. O Lord, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul; thou hast redeemed my life.

This is showing the resurrection of Jesus.

  1. O Lord, thou hast seen my wrong: judge thou my cause.
  2. Thou hast seen all their vengeance and all their imaginations against me.
  3. Thou hast heard their reproach, O Lord, and all their imaginations against me;
  4. The lips of those that rose up against me, and their device against me all the day.
  5. Behold their sitting down, and their rising up; I am their musick.
  6. Render unto them a recompence, O Lord, according to the work of their hands.
  7. Give them sorrow of heart, thy curse unto them.
  8. Persecute and destroy them in anger from under the heavens of the Lord.

Jesus prayed, “give them sorrow of heart, Thy curse unto them.”

He knew Moses had said by God that if they disobeyed the curse would come upon them.

So here Jesus is praying for this to be fulfilled; and it was. They are cursed by God.

Verse66. Amazing isn’t it? The Whole Book of God has 66 books. Isaiah, a miniature Bible, has 66 chapters. Lamentations 3, speaking of the crucifixion, resurrection of Jesus and the fall of the old law covenant, has 66 verses. 66 books; 66 chapters; 66 verses. And it ends with the cutting off of that old law covenant and the bringing in of the New Heavens and New earth = New Jerusalem of salvation through faith in Jesus.

Seems to me that the mark of the beast is somehow tied up in this. So I think it has to do with going back to law. In verse 66 Jesus is praying for God to persecute and destroy all under that old law covenant. This fits exactly what is shown in Hebrews that the one [old covenant] which waxed old and decayed is destroyed. Notice that this is Jesus himself praying for God to persecute and destroy this group of rebellions, law claiming people. Who is able to stay his hand? None.

Jonah 2

  1. Then Jonah prayed unto the Lord his God out of the fish’s belly,
  2. And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the Lord, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice.
  3. For thou hadst cast me into the deep, in the midst of the seas; and the floods compassed me about: all thy billows and thy waves passed over me.
  4. Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple.
  5. The waters compassed me about, even to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head.
  6. I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars was about me for ever: yet hast thou brought up my life from corruption, O Lord my God.
  7. When my soul fainted within me I remembered the Lord: and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.

Now you may not think so, but this is prophecy of Jesus being down in hell. Jesus himself used this thing with Jonah to show the death, going into hell, and the resurrection of him. As Jonah was three days and nights SO SHALL THE SON OF MAN BE IN THE EARTH.

So this Scripture proves that Jesus did pray to God while in hell and that God heard him and delivered him. Glory.
