Build On The True Foundation

Heb 1: 1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; 4 Being made somuch better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.  5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have Ibegotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?

 Some people to day seem so proud of thinking that God has returned to old prophets to speak to His People.

Why?  Do they not realize that when the OT people WERE under a prophet, what it meant?  Have you all no idea what it was like, being under a prophet?  Go, study the Word and learn some important truth.

Read Heb one.  God shows here, clearly, that in the last days, the time from the Apostles, till the end, that God is ONLY speaking to us by his SON.  He spoke in time PAST, (meaning the OT law days), by the prophets.Do you not realize that when this was the case, God did not speak to the people?  They had no direct communion with God.  If they needed to know something, or receive direction from God, THEY HAD TO GO TO A PROPHET, and let that prophet intercede to God for him?

Do you not realize that IF God truly went back to a prophet, speaking to us, that means you, yourself CANNOT get to God for yourself?  Is that truly something to glory in and be happy about?  Not for me.  I love getting in touch with God for myself.  I love having God speak to ME and teach ME himself.

If not, you are not a son of God.  God speaks to his sons/daughters, directly, himself; not through a prophet.
The SUN went down over the prophets.  God put them into darkness.  A verse in Zech. even says that (after the time of Christ), if any yet prophesies, or says he is a prophet, HIS PARENTS SHOULD TRUST HIM THROUGH.

Why?  Because that is DOING AWAY WITH THE WORK OF JESUS Christ, to open that door, so we ALL MAY COME BOLDLY TO THE THRONE OF GRACE, and receive directly from God, ourselves.
People, IF YOU THINK YOU NEED A PROPHET, YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO APPROACH GOD, OR GET IN TOUCH WITH HIM FOR YOURSELF.

Thus  you are rejecting the choice of God, himself, to speak to us in these last days, by his SON; not a prophet.
I do pray some of the ones who are deceived by this error, can recover themselves and get in touch with God for yourself.  There is no other way to salvation.  We must ALL COME IN AT THE SAME DOOR, JESUS CHRIST.

We the New Testament people, we are the true Israel of God. That is what is showing when the name of Jacob was changed from Jacob to Israel. Jacob is showing the Old Testament, that old Israel and Israel is showing the New Testament the new Israel. Now let’s go into the book of Genesis to see this. 

Genesis 28 10 And Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran.
11 And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took of the stones of that place, and put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep

Now you need to see what he Is talking about when he said the sun was set, and he took the stones and put them for his pillows, and laying down in that place to sleep.

The sun was set is showing that the sun went down on that Old Testament or that Old Israel, We not longer can serve God under that Old Testament Way, or the way that that old Israel served God.

Now let me try to show you where the sun went down on those Old Testament Prophets, Priests, and Kings. In other words the sunset, means that you cannot serve God under that Old Testament law.

Zec 11:8 – Three shepherds also I cut off in one month; and my soul lothed them, and their soul also abhorred me. ( The three shepherds that God cut off were the Old Testament Prophets, Priests, and Kings. This was old Israel. God loathed them, in other words he was never satisfied with that old Israel and they abhorred him. In other words they detested him or hated God.

Still on verse 11**** And he took of the stones of that place, ( Old Testament or old Israel) and put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep. ( The stones that were his pillars were those Commandments that was wrote on stone and also the law, that old Israel, or Jacob. In other words his pillars or foundation was fixing to fall or they were going to be put to sleep as it was when Sampson shook the pillars of the temple and it fell down or was put to sleep. That is what the pillars are a foundation. He( Jesus) had to put the first man Adam ( Jacob or old Israel) to sleep to become the second man Adam ( Israel). 
We need to see this spiritual and not natural. Also we need to see what I am fixing to say about the ladder. 

Gen. 28: 12 And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it. Is this not what was said in John?

Joh 1:51 – And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man. 

Now to see what the ladder was. I hope you can see that this ladder was set up on the earth. This was Jesus as earthly man. In other words the footstone had become the headstone. This is the stone that the old Israel rejected.

Mr 12:10 – And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner

So to reach the top to heaven, we must be changed as Jesus was. We must have a name change. Jesus had to also have a name change. While here on earth he was Jesus the Son of Man( old Israel) and at the resurrection he was Jesus Christ the Son of God (new Israel). In other words he was the old Israel while on this earth and the new Israel at the resurrection. We must come into the new Israel a step at a time. That is what the ladder is showing. The ladder is Jesus Christ. 

The ladder is showing that it is the only way that we can get to God. We must go by that ladder (Jesus Christ) to get to God. There is no other way. The ladder is showing the mediator between us and God.

1Ti 2:5 – For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; ( See the ladder here in this verse.

Jesus also said, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.( So I hope you can see that Jesus is the ladder. We must go by the ladder to get to God.

The LAW is no more;  bring in GRACE

By:  Jo Smith….July 9, 2016

1 Samuel 19King James Version (KJV)

19 And Saul spake to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should kill David.

Saul is an earthly type of satan.  How he hates the chosen of God.  Jesus is the chosen of God to remove old Adam, and set up a new kingdom of love and grace.  But old satan,   (Adam), fights this move of God with all he has and can come up with.  When Saul told them to kill David, we see that happening right today, as Farrakhan and others like him, call for the evil ones to rise up and kill white people, who have been kind to everyone on this earth.

10 And Saul sought to smite David even to the wall with the javelin: but he slipped away out of Saul’s presence, and he smote the javelin into the wall: and David fled, and escaped that night.

Here we see the earthly sign of those who continually sought to kill Jesus.  It is the same today, as evil ones seek to destroy Jesus and his truth off this earth.

11 Saul also sent messengers unto David’s house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning: and Michal David’s wife told him, saying, If thou save not thy life to night, to morrow thou shalt be slain.

12 So Michal let David down through a window: and he went, and fled, and escaped.

Again, we see the types as Saul’s people watch David to kill him.  This is also a type of when they had to let Paul down through a window, off a wall, so he could escape being killed.  Satan continually seeks to destroy the ones who follow Jesus, instead of him.

cpt. 20: 30 Then Saul’s anger was kindled against Jonathan, and he said unto him, Thou son of the perverse rebellious woman, do not I know that thou hast chosen the son of Jesse to thine own confusion, and unto the confusion of thy mother’s nakedness?

31 For as long as the son of Jesse liveth upon the ground, thou shalt not be established, nor thy kingdom. Wherefore now send and fetch him unto me, for he shall surely die.

32 And Jonathan answered Saul his father, and said unto him, Wherefore shall he be slain? what hath he done?

Saul here is typing Adam as he blames Eve for all the evil that he himself is doing.  Jonathan shows those of us who choose Jesus over the flesh, or Adam.  Saul shows that as long as Jesus lives, Satan’s kingdom will not be established.  So it is still a battle going on as Satan’s ministers, such as Farrakhan, tries to destroy the kingdom of Jesus that is in us.

cpt. 21: 21 Then came David to Nob to Ahimelech the priest: and Ahimelech was afraid at the meeting of David, and said unto him, Why art thou alone, and no man with thee?

2 And David said unto Ahimelech the priest, The king hath commanded me a business, and hath said unto me, Let no man know any thing of the business whereabout I send thee, and what I have commanded thee: and I have appointed my servants to such and such a place.

3 Now therefore what is under thine hand? give me five loaves of bread in mine hand, or what there is present.

4 And the priest answered David, and said, There is no common bread under mine hand, but there is hallowed bread; if the young men have kept themselves at least from women.

5 And David answered the priest, and said unto him, Of a truth women have been kept from us about these three days, since I came out, and the vessels of the young men are holy, and the bread is in a manner common, yea, though it were sanctified this day in the vessel.

6 So the priest gave him hallowed bread: for there was no bread there but the shewbread, that was taken from before the Lord, to put hot bread in the day when it was taken away.

This chapter has moved to the resurrection of Jesus.  He goes to the priest and asks for five loaves of bread.  This represents the five fold ministry of the NT, or Grace.  The condition for receiving this hallowed bread was that the men had been kept from women three days.  These men represent those virgins to God.  They then received hallowed bread which was lawful only for the priests to eat.  So, NT Christians are priests to God.  Glory.

8 And David said unto Ahimelech, And is there not here under thine hand spear or sword? for I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king’s business required haste.

(This shows that we do not fight this battle with natural swords, but with spiritual.  Our battle is spiritual, so David is not using his own weapon.)

9 And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the valley of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take that, take it: for there is no other save that here. And David said, There is none like that; give it me.

10 And David arose and fled that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.

11 And the servants of Achish said unto him, Is not this David the king of the land? did they not sing one to another of him in dances, saying, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands?

David asked for a sword.  He was given the sword of  Goliath, the giant that  David had killed.  The priest said, there is none other like this one.  So Jesus was given the same sword that had previously been used by Adam.

But a servant of Saul was there that day and heard all of this.  He later sets up tribulation against David.  The servants of satan are doing just this today.  They are fighting the chosen of God, Donald Trump, who is the perfect type of the last trumpet sounding.  This last trump brings the kingdom of Christ on this earth, the resurrection of the sleeping saints of God, and  peace to this earth.

That sword had been wrapped in a cloth, showing the cloth around the head of the dead Jesus.  But when the living Christ picks that sword up, power is given to the people of God.  I fully believe that the ‘sword’ is now in the hands of Donald Trump.  Forward, march, army of God.

Notice that the Philistines immediately recognized David as the king, even though he had not yet come into his kingdom.  People, that is where Jesus is now.  That is where Donald is now.

cpt. 22: 7 Then Saul said unto his servants that stood about him, Hear now, ye Benjamites; will the son of Jesse give every one of you fields and vineyards, and make you all captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds;

8 That all of you have conspired against me, and there is none that sheweth me that my son hath made a league with the son of Jesse, and there is none of you that is sorry for me, or sheweth unto me that my son hath stirred up my servant against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?

In verse 7, Saul is speaking to Benjamites, men of his own tribe.  He tries to set them against David by saying, since you are not of David’s tribe, he will not use you or help you.  This is the people today saying to black people, Donald is white so he will not be for other races.  See, it is the same old lie of satan to try and stop the chosen of God.

The rest of this chapter shows how Saul found out that the priest had helped David and had them killed.  His men would not kill the priests, so the wicked old Doeg killed them.  He is showing all these evil people who are fighting the kingdom of Jesus Christ and the chosen of God, Donald Trump.

NOW, BRING IN GRACE;  CLEANSING

John 8King James Version (KJV)

8 Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.

2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.

3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,

4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.

5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?

6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.

7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.

8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.

9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?

11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

A woman, taken in Adultery, no doubt that she is guilty.  The ones who brought her to Jesus wanted to have Jesus stand with the LAW OF MOSES, and have this woman stoned to death. that is what the LAW requires.

But Jesus wrote on the ground words that convicted them all of their own sins, so they all walked away, and could not cast the first stone.

Then, Glory to God, Jesus turned away from that LAW TO GRACE.

NEITHER DO I CONDEMN YOU.  Go, and sin no more.  (Sin no more, a condition required, in order to keep this forgiveness and cleansing).  If you return to LAW, you do FALL FROM THIS GRACE.  (Paul).

Hillary Clinton, no doubt that she is guilty as charged.  Yet, the FBI, knowing that she is guilty, said, neither do I condemn you.  Go free.  Seek to become president.  You are cleared of this sin.

Shew!  It looks terrible to the carnal mind, BUT to the spiritual, who can read the signs in the earth, know that this is showing the turning from LAW TO GRACE.

Did not the same statement bring out the words,  LAW IS NO MORE.  He that has eyes to see, let him acknowledge that this is truth.

Now, immediately after she is granted pardon, old satan comes up the new church and says, you must return to law.  You must keep the LAW OF MOSES TO BE SAVED.

There were five wise virgins and five foolish virgins.  They were all forgiven and cleansed by the same atonement.

But, Satan got to the foolish ones and they hopped on board with old satan, again.  The nation’s AIR-FORCE  ONE, was waiting with old Satan aboard, to catch up this foolish woman, and together they go up to NORTH Carolina.  North, shows heaven or the LAW.

David had hidden toward the SOUTH, showing death or the grave.

Satan, being the PRINCE OF THE POWER OF THE AIR, catches up this foolish virgin and attempts to take the kingdom away from the chosen of God.

The five foolish ones did not keep their cleansing.  They returned to their wicked ways, with Satan on board, fighting and slandering the chosen of God.

Immediately after this, war breaks out in this nation.  Kingdom against kingdom, race against race.

There is no peace says God, to the wicked.

Farrakhan has made a declaration of WAR against white people.  WHITE in Scripture, is RIGHTEOUSNESS.  So watch these signs in earth, for they are sure signs of what is going on in the heavens.  Jesus returns riding a WHITE HORSE.  Make no mistake about this….it is a sure sign.

This is not racism;  this is spiritual truth.  But I know, only the spiritual can receive this.

The five wise virgins will stay true to the Grace message and not turn again to the vomit they were delivered from.

Ten women cook their bread, in one oven.  It is those ten virgins, or the NT church.  Some bring out truth or good bread.  The others, the foolish, cook LIES.

Hillary is FULL OF LIES.  THAT HAS BEEN PROVEN.  Donald Trump is honest as any honest person can see or discern.  He is the chosen of God, a sign in earth, that the seventh trumpet is sounding.  The sixth one was the crucifixion of Jesus and then the persecution of the Saints down through the church ages.

Donald Trump goes about in his OWN jet, with the name, TRUMP, written big on it.  Hillary jumps on the nation’s jet, with satan.  That jet is called Air force  ONE. They are attempting to overthrow the kingdom that God has raised up and set back up the wicked kingdom of satan, which is now in full force in Washington D.C.

Jesus Christ returns on his OWN POWER, or that white horse. Let the saints of God shout for joy.  Psalms 149.

Praise God for this wonderful revelation.  AMEN.

The Law is no more
By: Jo Smith
July 6, 2016

There is much I wish to say, and could say, concerning the revelation of Lamentation. But since I have already written some messages on this subject, I will try to show you something that God revealed to me concerning our present day situation in the United States right now.
(Note, that on July 5, 2016, our FBI, KNOWING the evils of Hillary Clinton, and the evil she has done to our nation’s security, set her free from persecution, or being held accountable for her evil actions.) Someone then put out a message in which they declared, THE LAW IS NO MORE.

Now I am sure they have no idea how it fits this Book of Lamentation, nor were they even thinking of this; if indeed they have ever even read it…..but it gave me this message. See, God is showing me how to read or know the signs in earth, which are happening right now, before Our very eyes, and is showing what is going on in the heavenly, or invisible world. So this word, THE LAW IS NO MORE, is a mighty sign in earth, which God does not want you to miss.
So read this message.

First you should know that this Book not only deals with the destruction of the OT nation of Israel/Judah, but also with the destruction with the original sons of God, back in Eden. Then it covers the move into the NT; the crucifixion of Jesus and the casting down of that entire old testament law system. You know that Paul taught us that there is no salvation in or by the LAW. By the LAW is the KNOWLEDGE OF SIN. Tree of good and evil.
Paul also said, if you go back to LAW, you FALL FROM GRACE.

Finding GRACE, in scripture, has a very deep meaning and also is the only means of salvation. So, for the LAW TO BE NO MORE, is great news. It shows one has moved into Grace, or salvation.

Know also that after Jesus died on the cross, nailing that LAW to his Cross and taking it out of the way, for it was contrary to us, the church healed this wounded head of LAW. Yes, even as soon as in the Book of Acts, that early church had already persuaded many to return to LAW. It was to their destruction. They did not know then, the revelation of Lamentations, that this is showing the hatred and destruction of Law, by God himself.

If you have never seen these things in the wonderful book of Lamentations, give it a close study and pray. It is indeed most wonderful the amount of pure revelation in this short Book.

I want to show you this before I go into the mysteries I saw in 1Samuel last night.

Lamentations 2King James Version (KJV)
2 How hath the Lord covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in his anger, and cast down from heaven unto the earth the beauty of Israel, and remembered not his footstool in the day of his anger!
(‘covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud’)? This goes back to the time of the flood, when God placed those anointed cherubs, (original sons of God), into a body of dust. This took place when Noah’s family came out of the ark. Their children, born after the flood, were different from their parents. This was where, when and how God put ‘Adam’ into the dust. That dust body is this cloud. So God was angry with those wicked folks before the flood. He then placed them into dust because of his anger. See, they were in ‘heaven’ before that flood; a heavenly or spiritual world. But God cast them out of Eden, into this world that we are in right now. They could never find their way back to Eden or glorification.
2 The Lord hath swallowed up all the habitations of Jacob, and hath not pitied: he hath thrown down in his wrath the strong holds of the daughter of Judah; he hath brought them down to the ground: he hath polluted the kingdom and the princes thereof.
(Here it comes on down to the OT tribes of Jacob. God was again angry with the people because of their wickedness and going to LAW) This verse goes with Isa 47, telling Babylon to come down, sit in the dust. it is to Adam, come down and become a body of dust. Then it was to the OT Israelites, worshiping idols and being under LAW.)
3 He hath cut off in his fierce anger all the horn of Israel: he hath drawn back his right hand from before the enemy, and he burned against Jacob like a flaming fire, which devoureth round about.
4 He hath bent his bow like an enemy: he stood with his right hand as an adversary, and slew all that were pleasant to the eye in the tabernacle of the daughter of Zion: he poured out his fury like fire.

(Jesus is God’s right hand. Jesus was speaking the words of God. His words are sharp ARROWS. With the arrows, He was their adversary….you say, an eye for an eye, but I say unto you, resist not evil, etc.) With these arrows, God brought down the ruling powers of old Israel, or their horn. The very same thing is going on right now, in America. Their strongholds were their prophets, kings, sabbaths, laws, palaces, etc. God took that all down. He is soon going to take down all our strongholds. In the church, it is your pastors, priests, buildings, singers, organization headquarters, etc. In our nation, it is the president, senate, judicial system, and all other government officials. They are ALL now corrupt, as that old law system was corrupt, and God is going to bring it all crashing down, very soon. The school systems are corrupt; the health system is corrupt; the business system is corrupt, so it is all one big satanic mess.)
5 The Lord was as an enemy: he hath swallowed up Israel, he hath swallowed up all her palaces: he hath destroyed his strong holds, and hath increased in the daughter of Judah mourning and lamentation.

(Palaces, in Scripture, refers to their fancy synagogues or church buildings; God hates them and is set to destroy all of them. It is being set in motion right now, in America).
6 And he hath violently taken away his tabernacle, as if it were of a garden: he hath destroyed his places of the assembly: the Lord hath caused the solemn feasts and sabbaths to be forgotten in Zion, and hath despised in the indignation of his anger the king and the priest.

Verse 6 goes back to Eden, first. He destroyed that Eden world which had become filled with violence. The churches of today claim, you must ASSEMBLE into her buildings. There they have their solemn feasts and God HATES EVERY BIT OF THIS. If he violently took theirs away, he is also going to violently take yours away.
(Here we see the powers of that OT law system being taken down; their places of assembly, their sabbaths and their kings and priest. God did away with all of this due to their evil, which he hated.)
7 The Lord hath cast off his altar, he hath abhorred his sanctuary, he hath given up into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces; they have made a noise in the house of the Lord, as in the day of a solemn feast.

(Here God cast off his altar, [where they killed the animal sacrifices which God hated], but notice he gave up the WALLS of her palaces, INTO THE HAND OF THEIR ENEMY. When our walls are torn down, that is destruction. See, when God sent them destruction, the enemy tore down their WALL. But when God sent the back to Jerusalem, to restore that city and the WALL, it was then BUILT BACK UP. So building a WALL is an earthly sign that God is restoring one back; not destroying them.) Those who tore down our walls to allow the enemies to come into our nation, they are enemies, destroying us. [powerful note: their enemies were the NT ministers, Paul, Peter, etc. So they were tearing down that OT LAW system, to bring in the NT Grace.)
It was destruction to the OT way of life, but it was new life to the NT grace system. The flood brought destruction to Adam’s world, but gave new life to those born after the flood. A NEW DAY HAD DAWNED in both cases. So it is NOW. As one old system, which is corrupt, is destroyed, (say church), then a new day will dawn or begin. This is why this message is so glorious.

But Now that God has sent us a man to restore our great country, he says he is going to BUILD US A GREAT WALL TO KEEP THE ENEMIES OUT. People, this is a great sign that God is moving in heaven, for us. God is seeking to build us up; not tear us down. Glory to his Holy Name. Hillary Clinton is evil, and her kingdom is coming down. She is part of the old corrupt system which has to brought down, so the new system can come in. I hope you can see what God is showing me. It is comforting and most beautiful. In the midst of all the turmoil, fear and tearing down, there is hope in Jesus Christ. She will be used to tear down the corrupt system our government has now become. Both parties are corrupt as hell. But Donald Trump has been raised up and he did not go through their evil one-world system to become nominated. God raised this man up and God will tear down all the others just as He did in Adam’s day and the days of the apostles. Both times, an old corrupt law system was torn down and a new world of Grace was set up.

More to come:

8 The Lord hath purposed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion: he hath stretched out a line, he hath not withdrawn his hand from destroying: therefore he made the rampart and the wall to lament; they languished together.
9 Her gates are sunk into the ground; he hath destroyed and broken her bars: her king and her princes are among the Gentiles: the law is no more; her prophets also find no vision from the Lord.
10 The elders of the daughter of Zion sit upon the ground, and keep silence: they have cast up dust upon their heads; they have girded themselves with sackcloth: the virgins of Jerusalem hang down their heads to the ground.
11 Mine eyes do fail with tears, my bowels are troubled, my liver is poured upon the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; because the children and the sucklings swoon in the streets of the city.
12 They say to their mothers, Where is corn and wine? when they swooned as the wounded in the streets of the city, when their soul was poured out into their mothers’ bosom.
13 What thing shall I take to witness for thee? what thing shall I liken to thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? what shall I equal to thee, that I may comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Zion? for thy breach is great like the sea: who can heal thee?
14 Thy prophets have seen vain and foolish things for thee: and they have not discovered thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity; but have seen for thee false burdens and causes of banishment.

All their prophets, and those of today, saw vain and foolish things for the people. They have not discovered the reason they were BANISHED from Eden. They do not know why the OT law system was abolished; 11Cor 3.
They made up all kinds of lies of why God cast Adam out of Eden, but they have not found the truth yet, or they could turn away the captivity. Only the few who find this secret truth will come out of captivity into total freedom.
The main thing I wish to point out in the above verses is this: THE LAW IS NO MORE.
That is what the article said of america now; THE LAW IS NO MORE. So this means that God is NOW in the process of changing….doing away with an old corrupt system and bringing in a new good one. That old church system, which took up that old dead head of LAW is in this group to be abolished now. The corrupt system of our government is also set to be destroyed and replaced with something good. The corrupt and evil medical system, the school system the business world, all corrupt, will be abolished as that old world system has its wall torn down one more time. Glory to God.
People, this is an earthly SIGN that we are again at a time when God is going to destroy and old evil system and bring in a heavenly good system. It is an exciting revelation and time to be living in. The only thing that I am away of that should replace the church system, (which is mainly what God is dealing with; the other is just a natural happening which must go along with the spiritual happening); so all I see is the kingdom of Christ being set up on earth now.
Now that I have laid out this outline from Lamentations, let me show you our present happening from an old happening, from 1Samuel.

1 Samuel 20King James Version (KJV)
20 And David fled from Naioth in Ramah, and came and said before Jonathan, What have I done? what is mine iniquity? and what is my sin before thy father, that he seeketh my life?
2 And he said unto him, God forbid; thou shalt not die: behold, my father will do nothing either great or small, but that he will shew it me: and why should my father hide this thing from me? it is not so.
3 And David sware moreover, and said, Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thine eyes; and he saith, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved: but truly as the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, there is but a step between me and death.
4 Then said Jonathan unto David, Whatsoever thy soul desireth, I will even do it for thee.
5 And David said unto Jonathan, Behold, to morrow is the new moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king at meat: but let me go, that I may hide myself in the field unto the third day at even.

As I read all of this last night, and God was opening it up to me for our day and also for the day of Jesus, (which unless you can take it all to Jesus, you are missing the true revelation; and then it does you no good unless you can also see it for our day. The first application is always that with Adam.) I kept asking God, who does Jonathan represent in this. I did not see the answer till a while ago. I again asked God, who does Jonathan show? Then God told me, John the Baptist. wow. I had not even considered that. Great revelation.

I can see clearly how Saul represents Adam in this, but had not seen how Jonathan was showing John the Baptist as John paved the way for Jesus to become king of this world. But see, there has to be someone in our day, right now, who is protecting Donald and is going to help set him up. Whoever it is, they are doing this type of Jonathan, who loved David too much to want to be king himself. He wanted it to be David for God had chosen David.

Taking off here in 1Sam 20, verse one: Here Saul, a type of satan or Adam, is trying to kill David, or Jesus, for he knows that David has been anointed by God to be the true King. Adam is trying to block and destroy Jesus; our nation is trying to destroy and block Donald Trump from going into office. See, they have their Jezebel. She is mystery Babylon. It is time now to destroy Babylon the second time. She fell at the destruction of OT Law system. But now it will happen again as God destroys this carnal, dead last church system. This time her roots will be plucked out of the earth and cast into hell fire. Obama had to go in before Hillary and take things to the bottom. He has done that. So now it is time for Hillary to finish her role in this winding down of ‘church’ time. She is that old harlot, going about destroying everything, and especially wanting to destroy all babies. It is the same as old Athalia who killed all the kings sons to become queen herself. But see, even then, God had made a way to save one of them, a baby. When he was six, they set him up as king and killed Althaea.

We have Hillary Clinton playing this roll. She is the Babylon or corrupt church system harloting against God. God has raised up someone to rebuild our Wall, secure our ‘city’ and throw old Jezebel down. That man is Donald Trump. God was preparing Donald all these years without anyone knowing. He had to wait until the seventy years are up. He will be seventy years old, showing this, when he goes into office. This is the sure earthly sign that we are now at the time to destroy old babylon and set up a pure system that will be righteous. In this new move of God, Donald will be showing the same thing as Nehemiah and Ezra did, when they returned to Jerusalem to rebuild the WALL and the city. The WALL has to be built first, to secure the City when it is built. This is to be Donald’s part.

Donald, carrying the last name of TRUMP, is the perfect type for our earthly sign that we are at the time of the SEVENTH TRUMPET TO SOUND. He could not run for office until the right time, when he will be seventy years old when he is set up as our leader. It is just too perfect not to be true. It is a true sign in the earth. Scripture says that after Saul was dead and it was time to take the kingdom away from Saul’s family and set up David….those who knew the SIGNS and what God wanted done, knew it was time to set David up and proclaim him KING.
Well, I am telling you, when Mr Trump takes office, or even if he does not and Hillary is set up, it is still time to throw her down and crown Jesus King of this earth. It will happen just as God has told us it would. He has ALWAYS set up these sure signs in earth for what is happening in the heavenly invisible world.

In verse one, David or Jesus, asks ‘what is my sin; no one convinces me of sin; what evil have I done that they wish to kill me?’ This also shows Pilate asking of Jesus, what wrong has he done?
Donald is also asking, what evil have any of you proven against me? They lie, but have no true evil against him. It is a perfect type.
Verse two is fantastic: Jonathan says, No, my Dad is not going to kill you. He has not told me that and he would do nothing he has not told me. Why would my father hide this thing from me. It is not so. Now, look at this; Scripture says God will do NOTHING BUT WHAT HE HAS revealed to his servants, the prophets. he is sure of this. He is perplexed and asks why would my father want to kill you?
Verse three: marvelous: David answers, your father knows that I have FOUND GRACE in your eyes. wow.
Satan is trying to trick up Jesus and said, you are just a man in flesh. You are going to die. But Jesus knew that he had FOUND GRACE IN THE EYES OF GOD, SAME AS NOAH HAD; SAME AS MOSES HAD. Saul types Satan or Adam, trying to destroy Jesus, so he cannot come to the throne. But Jesus knows that his Father has already said it to the prophets, that he will both die, be resurrected and become king of this earth. He has found GRACE. No Law can do this; It takes grace. The LAW IS NO MORE. Glory to God, we now have this earthly sign posted to the world; THE LAW IS NO MORE. Couldn’t be any plainer or more precise. Perfect sure signs in earth.

The EARTHQUAKES that people are continuously calling earthly signs, are natural events and NOT the signs God meant. That thinking is the DUST that is the serpent’s meat. The serpents always see things natural or carnal. But in Scripture EARTHQUAKES mean great FEAR coming on people because of something going on. These earthquakes are the FEAR YOU NOW SEE on this nation of corrupt politicians toward Donald Trump. Another sure sign. The fear of this man has fallen on this world. It has to be a working of the eternal God.
David assured Jonathan that his father wants him dead; there is but a step between me and death. They have already made at least two attempts on Donald’s life. They want him dead. But God is protecting him as he did David.
V4, shows the love that John had for Jesus and that we have for Donald.
Verse five: David here tells Jonathan that a new move is coming…tomorrow is the new moon; a new law system of grace; a new law of love…but before that time comes…. let me go and hide myself in the field unto the THIRD DAY, AT EVEN. Clearly death and resurrection of Jesus BEFORE THAT NEW MOVE COMES IN. He said, they think I should still be ‘eating’ with the ‘king’, (satan or Adam)… eating that OT law meat. But Jesus was finished with this.
Donald had at one time been in with those who eat of the king’s meat; but he saw the truth and will not eat at that table again. God just gave me this. it just keeps opening up as I write. ‘they say, oh we know he once did’; but see God was still preparing him; now his eyes are open and he sees the destruction of our nation that the wicked ones are preparing to do. He rose up, at night, as Nehemiah did, and compassed this country and devised a plan to save it. Wow. God is telling me this as I write. Never been more sure of anything.

Verse eight shows the covenant of Grace between Jesus and John. This world’s politicians are angry because they cannot get Mr Trump to go back to the old ways. He is on a new course = grace and safety for our country. He refuses to smooth over the wicked ones, to get votes or money. He is now showing the love of Jesus to this nation.

Separate law from Grace.

Due to the fact that practically no one understands what the tree of good and evil is, and the fact they also do not know what the tree of life is, they are not able to rightly divide the Word of God and separate law from Grace.

Understanding what  is law and what is grace is the most important thing to come to, for under the law is no salvation.

The law is a curse.  The law is not of faith.  Without faith it is impossible to please God.  The law is bondage, therefore those who live by law are  bond children.

So if this much is wrong with law, why is it in Scripture?  God said the law was added because of their sins.  God put them under law so they would be held accountable for their sins and be damned.   Strange, isn’t it..that almost everyone thinks the law is wonderful.

Almost all messages we hear are law messages.  Why?  These ‘ministers’ have not come to understand Grace.  They claim to be in grace, but their entire life and words is law.

I had been thinking about writing on this a while but hesitated to do so.  Then as I was reading my message on Genesis one, I came across a statement where Paul and Jesus separated law from grace to the people.

Then I knew I needed to teach on this.  See, the law message has done more harm to the work and advancement of the kingdom of Christ than anything else.  How can this be?  Well, just watch:

Has not the law message prevented almost all women Christians from working in the work of God?  Haven’t they been forbidden to preach, teach or anything that would advance the kingdom of Christ?  Sure we have.

How many souls could have been won to Christ had women taken up their rightful role in the work of God.  How much truth could have been brought to the light, and souls delivered from the darkness, had women taken up the work of God?

Did God forbid them?  NO.  It was LAW.  God even said in Ezekiel that He gave them laws that were not good and by which they could not live.  Then why is the entire church world running on LAW?

It is the darkness and the proud men who have prevented the truth from bringing out the goodness that a united Christian Church would have given this world.  It is in total chaos right now due to this dark error.

God set lights in the firmament to divide the day or light, from the night, or darkness.  All true ministers, from Jesus on, had to separate these two and teach the difference.

So Now I must teach on this.  Many of you Christian sisters are so in bondage that you think speaking the word of God would be an insult to you.  Such a horrible shame.  You are living UNDER LAW; BONDAGE.

You cannot be Free and in Bondage, at the same time.  Anyone being ruled over in any manner is in bondage or law. Therefore you are a bond child with no salvation.  When Jesus gives us salvation, we are set FREE.  You are not Free if you cannot and will not study and preach the truth of God.

The tree of the knowledge of good and evil is LAW.  Scripture clearly teaches this.  (I am not looking up and quoting scriptures here, just teaching what I know and if you have any knowledge of the word of God at all, you know this is scripture;  if you do not, you are not a Christian at all, having not studied the Word of God, whereby you might grow.)

So what says a woman cannot teach…law or grace?  It is clearly LAW.

In Christ, there is NEITHER MALE NOR FEMALE.  NOW UNTIL YOU COME TO SEE THIS, you are in darkness and have not been set free.  You need someone to divide the day from the night, for you.  So I am here doing so.

If you still see Christians as MALE AND FEMALE FOLKS, you are blinded by LAW.  You have not come into Christ, for in Christ there is  only children of God;  all are sons of God.  Jesus said he that does the will of my Father is my Mother….are you his mother?  if so are you female?

Jesus said those who do the will of my Father is my brother…are you his brother?  If so, are you male or female?

Jesus said he that does the will of my Father is my sister….so how are you his Mother, his Brother, His sister, if you are either a male or a female?   You truly have no idea for you are in darkness and error, blinded by LAW.

To see folks as woman or man, male or female, is natural, which is carnal.  the Carnal mind is death, the enemy of God;  cannot receive the things of the Spirit of God for to him it is foolishness.  Are you carnal?  Do you say, I am of this man or that man?  If so, you are carnal.  Do you say a woman Christian cannot preach or teach?  If so you are carnal and blinded by Law.

Men who had gone back to Law had written Paul complaining about  women teaching..They said the law says they cannot..Paul rebukes this statement.  but the carnal mind does not see that;  it reads the word of God as disjointed scrambled words with no meaning.

But see, Jesus taught both messages;  he had to.  The majority of folks always have and always will live under LAW.  So he had to tell them how to do that, even though they will not have salvation by law.

Paul also taught both messages..  So both messages are all through Scripture.

I have written many messages on the difference between law and grace.  But this one needs to be made clear.  Don’t think I have written on this side of law.

How to tell?  When a message make a difference between men and women, then know that it is a law MESSAGE.  For in Christ, there is neither male nor female, but we are all ONE IN CHRIST JESUS; NO DIFFERENCE.  Scripture makes this very clear many times.

question:  What covers our sins?  think about this.  Before I go any further, think about this;  what is your COVERING?  Are you covered by Adam or Jesus?  or what?  That first cherub was Adam;  He was supposed to be a covering for the people;  but what did he do?  he deceived them and led them into LAW; TREE OF GOOD AND EVIL.

That was death.  Were animal sacrifices ever of God? No- Scripture is clear that God hated this….so why is it in the Word?  It is LAW.  Who brought up law? Adam/serpent.

After old serpent, Adam, deceived Eve into going into Law, what did God tell her?  now he is going to rule over you.  Was this what God wanted?  Not at all.  God hated this.  It is perversion of God’s way.  I am not going to sit here looking all these scriptures to try and prove this to anyone, for I know you still would not accept it.  I have already proven all of this many times and Scripture is full of it.  If you do not know the Word of God, you are not his child anyway.  You are in darkness and hate the light or truth.

Under the Grace message, we are EQUALS.  No male; no female;  no bond or free;  just equals.  no Jew or Greek; just equals.

Until you can get to that, you will remain in darkness and death.  Law is your covenant.  Death is your companion. 

If I have the Spirit of Jesus in me, I have a son of God in me.  I am a son of God, therefore you cannot judge me as a restricted female, under law.  I am not under law.

What is my covering?  You think it is my hair?  You think I cannot cut my hair because I am a woman?  I am not a woman;  I am a son of God.  Foolish to you, huh?  Sure you are in bondage.

Sure men said that; but those men are under law.  Sure men said I cannot teach; but those men are under law; bondage and trying to hold me in bondage.

I wore my hair long as long as I could.  It is not my covering.   The Spirit and blood of Jesus is my covering.  My sins are under the blood; not how I wear my hair.  that is law.  Jesus wore long hair and so did many other men in Scripture. Priest wore skirts.  So now where are you?

You are blinded by LAW.  Pity is though, that those who hold that a woman must have uncut hair, pin it up on top of their head….1Cor 11 clearly that to do this is the same as SHAVING YOUR HEAD.  So where are you?

Ignorant of the Word of God.  If you are not COVERED WITH IT, (means piled on top of the head)…then God said it is the same as cutting it off or shaving your head.  So see, all those women thinking they are more Holy than a woman who can no longer wear it long, due to a sisk in the head , yet you pile it on top of your head, you are shaved.  You have no truth is what it amounts to.  Self-righteous and a serpent.  Considering yourself to be to good to speak to others, when you are in total rebellion to God’s word.

And even if there is not a physical reason that one cannot wear the long hair, that is still LAW AND NOT REQUIRED FOR A WOMAN IN GRACE,  FOR WE ARE ALL ONE.

I heard a certain man, who claimed to be a minister, say, (and this is the last words I heard this man speak, for he died soon after this)….He came up where I was visiting a friend.  We were not discussing this at all…the man just blurted it out…he said,  “Brother Branham said a man can have all the women he wants”.

I said, well God sure did not say that.  He said, I know that, and with that he left.  I never saw him alive again.

But see this lying fake prophet had taught this man that he could have all the women he wanted.  No such filth is taught in Scripture.  Sure OT men did this thing;  but they were under law and totally out of God’s will.

See, to make that kind of difference in men and women is a satanic, law message.

We are all to live pure and Holy lives;  not just women.  The holiness (so called) churches rest fully on how the women in the church dress and wear their hair.. the men can live as they please….it is of satan.  No holiness at all.  Then they prance around holding their heads high and have that proud look, that God hates.  Piling your hair on top of your head gives you a proud, snotty look.

It is not of God.  If you think you need to not cut your hair, then it MUST HANG DOWN.  If you pile it up, God said you shaved your head.

But under grace, THIS DOES NOT EVEN MATTER.

The New Heavens and New Earth

This revelation will come as quite a shocker to most of you who read it. For so long the new heavens and new earth has been taught to mean a total new type of planet or something of this nature which will occur after everything else is finished. But this is just not true to the Word of God. I know most of you will find this hard to believe because of the lies which have preceded this true teaching. But if you will take the time to study this and compare it with all the Scriptures on this subject, you will find it matches the Word as no other teaching before has done.

I will start this message with the whole chapter of Isaiah 65.

Isaiah 65

1. I Am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.

2. I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;

3. A people that provoketh me to anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick;

4. Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine’s flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;

5. Which say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day.

6. Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,

7. Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the Lord, which have burned incense upon the mountains, and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom.

8. Thus saith the Lord, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants’ sakes, that I may not destroy them all.

9. And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.

Now, lets look at this portion a little at a time:

Verse one: This is speaking of the Gentiles being brought unto God.

Two: This is speaking of God and His dealings with the nation of Israel, which always rebelled against God and His way.

Three: this clearly identifies the nation of Israel because they are the ones whom God had ‘always’ dealt with; they are the ones who sacrificed and burned incense.

Next God tells of their sins and how He will recompense them for it.

Verse 8 picks up with prophecy of the New Testament Christians, the servants of Jesus. We are called the ‘servants’ in the Word. The ‘new wine’ is the New covenant of Grace.

Verse 9 is speaking of Jesus. Jesus was the seed out of Jacob which inherited God’s mountains. His servants, the New Testament Christians are the ones who dwell there.

10. And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me.

11. But ye are they that forsake the Lord, that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish the drink offering unto that number.

12. Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not.

Verse 10 speaks of the Christians. These are His people that sought him.

Verse 11 & 12 tell the OT. law people how they forsook the Lord and forgot the Holy Mountain, the NT Covenant. When Jesus called they did not hear or answer but went right back to that which God said in Isa. 1, that he delighted not in = the old covenant and blood of animals.

13. Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed:

14. Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit.

15. And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord God shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name:

Now you already know from my other teachings that Jesus left the OT. Covenant (law), without any food in it. Study Lamentations to prove this. It is all through the prophets. Now in v. 13, He says that his servants (the Christians) will ‘eat’ = be fed the bread from Heaven; but they (law people) shall be hungry. Why? Because all the prophets said he cut them off and would not feed them. That, which dieth, let it die. I will not feed you. (Zech. 11: 9)

We rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory due to the Baptism of the Holy Ghost, but they shall be ashamed. Why? Because they did not answer the call to come over into the New Covenant; they resisted the Holy Ghost; the Grace Covenant.

Verse 15 shows how God slew them and called his ‘servants’ by another name ~ = CHRISTIANS.

16. That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes.

17. For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.

18. But be ye glad and rejoice forever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.

19. And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.

20. There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed.

21. And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.

22. They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.

23. They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the Lord, and their offspring with them.

24. And it shall come to pass that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.

25. The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent’s meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the Lord.

Now in these verses is the proof that the new heavens and new earth are NOT what everyone believes; they are not a new planet or life after all this is over.

Read this carefully and prayerfully. I will also bring other Scriptures proving this in another installment.

V. 16 speaks of the blessing of the New Covenant beginning at Pentecost.

17. For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.

Rev. 3: 14. And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; these things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;

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,

8. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.

Now this said Jesus is the beginning of the creation of God. He was the first BEGOTTEN of the dead. He was the beginning ~ but of What? The beginning of the new heaven and earth = the New Covenant of Grace. The resurrected Jesus is this new heaven and earth. Jesus is the Holy City. Jesus is the Holy Jerusalem. Now don’t go jump off the deep end and refuse to read this; study this if you truly desire truth and revelation.

Jesus was the ending of the Old Covenant of law. He is the end of the law for righteousness to those who believe. Is this not Word? Of course it is.

Jesus was made of a woman; made under the law; this was a fleshly man – first man Adam; of the earth, earthly; he was part of the Old Covenant here. But, Jesus came forth a new creation when he was resurrected from the dead. We who are baptized into this body of the Holy Jerusalem, Jesus, are a New Creature.

11Cor. 5: 17. Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

Gal 6: 15. For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.

Now there is enough proof that all in Christ Jesus are new creatures; for we are part of his body, this New Creation of God = the new heavens and earth.

Now back to Isaiah 65 for proof that the new heavens and earth are NOT THE ETERNAL WORLD EVERYONE THINKS.

Verse 18 speaks of the rejoicing of the Christians in the Holy Ghost.

Verse 20 proves death is in this New City. It shows that our life is not eternal in this Holy City; for a person in Christ who dies at 100, is still considered a child. But one who rejects Christ this long is accursed.

Verse 22 speaks of our Christian work which will be rewarded eternally. We will not lose our rewards for our labour.

We are the blessed of the LORD and our spiritual children.

V24 shows our power in Christ to be heard because we now have His Spirit living inside us.

V25– The wolf, which is shown in Scripture to be false teachers, and the lamb, which is children of God feed together. Now what is this?

Jesus said the tares (same as the wolf) and the wheat (same as the lambs) grow until the end of the world. The seven churches all show saints and sinners in there together; all feeding together off the Word of God. The parable of the fish net showed that they gathered both bad and good in that net of the gospel preaching. They were both there until the angels came at the end of the world, drew that net in and SEPARATED THE GOOD FROM THE BAD.

So see then, that this in Isaiah 65: 25 would have to be speaking of a time when the bad and the good (wolf and lamb) are STILL FEEDING TOGETHER? It could NOT be AFTER the end of the world; it would have to be during the Church Ages.

The lion (which is shown to be the destroyers, evil workers) (until Jesus returns as a lion to destroy them)–shall eat STRAW— Straw is shown in the Word to be false teachings. Stubble is shown to be the children of the devil. So these evil lions are eating the straw, or the false teachings…..

And dust shall be the serpent’s meat.

Jesus called the hypocrites serpents and vipers. So this is saying the same thing said in Genesis that the serpents or evil people, eat ‘dust’, which is the worldly things; the things of the flesh. So, if this new heaven and earth were the eternal world of perfection, a new planet or something of that nature, HOW WERE THESE HYPOCRITE SERPENTS STILL THERE? See this COULD NOT BE THE ANSWER. This could not be an eternal, perfect world; for this clearly shows the serpents to STILL BE THERE, eating DUST, or earthly, material things, which will not exist in the pure Heavenly World after everything is finished.

But in His Holy Mountain, those truly in Christ, we do not hurt or destroy each other.

Date Posted：09/21/2010 11:44 PMCopy HTMLWhy do we baptize in the name of Jesus Christ?  This was asked on Yahoo q/a/
This was my answer:

No one who answered above me, that I can see, has this right.  I am just sorry to tell you all, but you need to come into the real truth.
You ‘Jesus-only’ folks have it all wrong, even more so than the trinities.

Father is NOT a title.  God does not have a title.  Look it up.  Do some research.  Search the Scriptures as Jesus commanded us to do. Show where God is said to have even one title.
You say holy ghost is a title….if so then tell me…how were the Apostles  and others baptized with a title?  How does a title get into us?  What good is a title inside me?

Not one single scripture says that these are titles of God.  Not one scripture says that Father reveals himself in the name of Jesus.  You are all just listening to false religions false interpretations and not seeking the truth from God himself.

You are commanded to search the Scriptures.  Prove what is good = it is written exactly as stated in the interpretation.
Hold fast to that which is PROVEN with At least two witnesses -= written Scriptures.

If you all do this, you will see that both doctrines are wrong.

The reason we baptize in the name of Jesus is because Jesus is our HEAD.  Jesus is the HEAD of man.  Jesus is the only authority that we can work under.
Not one soul has the authority, or right, to use the name or power of the Father.

Jesus did,  … and that is why he said, .. in the name of Father, son and Holy Ghost.  God the Father is the HEAD of Jesus Christ.
Jesus is the head over the church, or humanity.

When one attempts to over-ride the power or authority of Jesus, and go to the Father, using the name of the Father, that person is WRONG.  Only Jesus has this right.
To use the NAME means to call into action the power of that one.

No human being has the authority to call into action the power of the Father.  We must work through Jesus and Jesus only.
This does NOT mean that Jesus is the only God.  It means we can only go through Jesus to get to the Father.
The false teaching saying that Jesus is God, and the only one, blocks everyone from finding this important truth.

But God holds you everyone responsible to study Scripture and find truth and obey it.

People cannot find the way out of mixing up Mat. 28:19 with the way it was actually done in Acts, so they made up a false doctrine, either denying the true way, revealed in Acts, or they (oneness folks) made up a false teaching saying that father and holy ghost are titles.

If so, why did Jesus pronounce these titles?   Why is it that none of you even question this and seek the truth?  Scripture cannot contradict itself.  So there has to be truth in all of this.  What I am telling you is the ONLY truth which does not have to fight the other verses.

In order to understand the truth about Baptism, one must first understand the headship. There are two major teachings on the Godhead. Both of them are wrong. The trinity doctrine says that God is manifested in three equal beings; of the same nature and substance.

But Jesus said God is a Spirit. The Word says that God is not a man. Jesus said after his resurrection, that he is still flesh and bone. He told the disciples, Feel me and handle me and see that a spirit hath NOT flesh and bone as you see me have. So, even after the resurrection, Jesus still said that he was not a spirit.

So, don’t you see that this says Jesus and God are not of the same substance? One is a human, and the other one is a spirit. There is one God and one mediator between God and men, the MAN Christ Jesus. That is right now in heaven; Jesus is still a man and God is still a spirit. So, this proves the trinity doctrine is a lie.

Jesus said my Father is greater than I. This disproves both teachings. (for the sake of shortening this message, I am only telling Scriptures; not quoting . You all know them; we have been over this so many times.) But, I will give a few important ones.

1Cor. 11: 3—But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is GOD.

Now, you may wonder why I am going to this in a message on Baptism: but this is absolutely necessary to understand the truth of Baptism.

Now, do you understand what being the head of someone means? It is the authority or leader; the one responsible for the spiritual well being of one. Also, the top man in a country is its head.

The head of the church is Christ. But Christ has a head. God is the head of Jesus. Now, all this is applied the same way. Unless you see that God is the head over Jesus; how can you see that Jesus is the head over man and man over woman? It is the same thing. So, if you deny that God is over Jesus; then you must also deny that Jesus is over us. Those of you who say Jesus is the same as God; you are denying that God is his head. For then you would have to say that man is Jesus; for the very same words say God is the head of Christ which say Jesus is the head of man.

As we are to obey our head, Jesus said he did always the things which pleased his head, God.

In Matt.28:19—When Jesus told the disciples to baptize in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost, he was showing that what he said and did, he did under the authority of the Father and the Holy Ghost. Jesus said I came in my Father’s name. Now, the Jesus only people took this and went wild with it. They say this means that Jesus is the name of the Father. But this is not what it is saying. When one says they do a thing in the name of someone or an organization, it simply means you are doing this by the other person’s authority.

So, when Jesus said I came in my Father’s name, he was saying what the rest of the Word says; that the Father SENT the Son. Jesus said I do only what I see my Father do; I say only what I hear my Father say. See, this was his authority.

Now, re-read the Word in 1Cor. The only one who is said to be directly under the authority of the Father is Jesus. So, this means that Jesus is the ONLY one who has the authority to invoke the name of the Father. He is the only one who has a right to call the Father into action. This is why it says we can only come to the Father through Jesus; we can not go directly to the Father ourselves; we must go through Jesus.

So, by the same token, man can not use the authority of the Father in Baptism. We are directly under the authority of Jesus. We need go no further: indeed, we can not go any further; to try to do so is to reject the headship of Jesus and try to go over him; over his authority to get to the Father.

So when the disciples baptized, they only said in the name of Jesus. For if they had tried to use the name of the Father for their authority to baptize with, they would have been wrong; for they would not have been submitting themselves to the authority of Jesus.

There is no place in all the Scripture where any one was baptized saying the words, in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. For, the apostles knew that Jesus was their head. They did not try to over ride this authority.

Acts 2:38—Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you (this still applies to every one of you)–in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Now, here is why so many do not receive the gift of the Holy Ghost: they refuse to obey baptism in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins.

v41—Then they that GLADLY received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.

So, see, those people GLADLY accepted this word as the way of salvation: they obeyed this: 3,000 people.

Acts 8:16—For as yet he (the Holy Ghost) was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.

This is the next time it is mentioned as to how N.T. Christians were baptized: in the name of the Lord Jesus. Then they received the Holy Ghost; according to the promise.

Acts 10:44-48—- After the Gentiles to whom Peter had gone and preached, received the Holy Ghost, for they heard them speak with tongues…v47—Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?

See, they knew these had received the same experience they received , for they heard them speak with tongues.

v48–And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord.

Now, here is one of the N.T. commandments. This is the one people need to be concerned about obeying. This is the one connected with receiving salvation.

Acts 19:1-7—Here Paul met some believers who had been baptized by John the Baptist; he asked them if they had received the Holy Ghost since they had believed. They said they did not know about the Holy Ghost. Paul asked them how they were baptized then.

v4- Paul told them they needed to be baptized in the name of Jesus.

v5—When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

v6–And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.

Col 3:17—And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

Now, these are the only Scriptures which show exactly how the apostles baptized people. And it says to do every thing you do in the name of the Lord Jesus. Baptism is both in word and deed; so it must be done in the name of the Lord Jesus.

To try to use the name of the Father is to try to over ride the authority of Jesus. God will not accept this. No one except Jesus has the power to invoke the name of the Father. No earthly man has this authority: so no one has the right to baptize you in the name of the Father. When we submit to the authority of Jesus, we are thereby under the indirect authority of the Father: we can not be directly under the Father: Jesus is the mediator between us and the Father.

There is not even one place in the Word where any one baptized saying in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. They always said in the name of the Lord Jesus. This is the only correct way. This is the only way God will remit your sins. This is the only way which will bring you the promised Holy Ghost; for this is the condition which you must meet in order to be in position to receive the Holy Ghost. There is no other way given in the Word of God. To do it any other way, is to reject God’s provided way; his commandment; and accept some man’s way, which is in defiance of God’s chosen way.

Lord Jesus, I pray that every one who reads this message will see the truth of this and submit themselves to your authority and be baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus and receive the Holy Ghost. May they also see that this way is not because you are the Father; but that you are under the authority of your head, God.

Thank you Lord Jesus for revealing this great secret to me.

Date Posted：12/18/2011 6:47 PMCopy HTMLFrom: joie2  (Original Message)Sent: 12/7/2003 7:22 PMIs there any other evidence in the Word of God that Baptism in the name of Jesus WASHES AWAY OR REMITTS OUR SINS?  Let’s see what another man of God believed about this:Acts 22:10.  And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said unto me, Arise, and go into Damascus; and there it shall be told thee of all things which are appointed for thee to do.
 11.  And when I could not see for the glory of that light, being led by the hand of them that were with me, I came into Damascus.
 12.  And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good report of all the Jews which dwelt there,
 13.  Came unto me, and stood, and said unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And the same hour I looked up upon him.
 14.  And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth.
 15.  For thou shalt be his witness unto all men of what thou hast seen and heard.
 16.  And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.This is speaking of Paul~~v12–Ananias, a devout man of good report had enough faith and power to say to the blinded Saul, receive thy sight.  and the same hour Saul had his eyes opened back up.  It came about by this man speaking it.  This is our power in Christ….speak….and it shall be.Now what about Saul?  v14…….God has chosen you, that you shall know his will and hear his voice and be his witness unto all men.v16–Why tarry?  {make haste]…and be baptized,  and  WASH  AWAY  THY SINS,      [how] calling on the name of the Lord.How many of you dare call this many witnesses of this way of Baptism a lie?  Can you call this much Scripture a lie?  Does it have anything to do with salvation?  Well, does having your sins washed away, or remitted have anything to do with salvation?If so then, Baptism is escential;;;;;;; for this is the one and ONLY WAY GIVEN IN THE WORD OF GOD TO GET YOUR SINS REMITTED OR WASHED AWAY.    WASHED BY THE PURE WATER WHICH IS BROUGHT ABOUT BY THE SPOKEN WORD OF GOD AS THE BAPTIZER SPEAKS THE HOLY WORDS OVER A PERSON IN BAPTISM.  THIS SANCTIFIES THAT WATER AND MAKES IT HOLY  …….BY THE WORD OF GOD…….EVERYTHING GOD SPEAKS  IS  HOLY.If Ananias could speak words and give Saul back his sight,,,then the same words of God spoken by a man baptizing someone, can cause that water to be holy and wash away his sins.

There was a question and answer to this that was on another thread that I answered but this also should be a new message   

Question?

If a person is not Baptised in water do you think he or she will go to this burning Hell that everyone believes in?

Yes I DoYes I do believe that baptism is a necessary part of our salvation. Reference to baptism goes all the way back to Moses in reference to Israel passing through the Red Sea and covered by the cloud.1 Cor 10:2 – And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; ( It identifies us with the death, ( repentance dying out of that old man) burial ( baptism) resurrection (coming forth as a new man) ( See we are buried with him by baptism into death so that like as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.1 Cor 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. ( See this is how we become part of the body of Christ through baptism.)Mark 16:16- He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. ( So this scripture alone should answer any question that any one has about baptism being a part of our salvation.)This is not part of the question but I also see according to scripture that you have to be baptize in a river or some large body of water.John 3:23 -And John also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.Math 3:6- And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins. ( See repentance and baptizing go together you can not separate them. We know they were repenting because they were confessing their sins. So in the plan of salvation there must be repentance and baptism.3:13 Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.The reason that I brought these 2 scriptures out is to show you where they were baptized, in the river Jordon which was a river according to history that was the one river of Palestine, has its course of little more than 200 miles (300 km), from the roots of Anti-Lebanon to the head of the Dead Sea. That there was much water there.Baptism is not something we should neglect because it is a commandment from Jesus himself.Math 28:18- And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.28:19- Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:28:20 – Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. ( See it was a commandment)Gal 3: 27- For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.( Now what is this saying? here he says we put on Christ when we were baptized. So if you have not been baptized according to what I see you have not put on Christ. To put on Christ you must be baptized.Baptism is part of God’s plan of salvation but not the only thing. Only a part. If you take on only baptism it is no good. You must first repent as saith the scripture. If they do not repent all anyone does if baptism is the only thing they do is to go down in water a dry sinner and come back up a wet sinner.John 3: 5 states- 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. ( I hope you see who said this. It was not Isaiah that said it, so how can anyone see that without the baptism in water you cannot be saved?Jesus himself was baptized and we are to follow his example***********1 Peter 2:21- For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: IF WE ARE GOING TO FOLLOW THE STEPS OF JESUS WHAT MUST WE DO? DO AS JESUS DID. Let’s see what he done.<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Math 3: 13- 17– Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.3:14 – But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?3:15 -And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him. ( so why did Jesus have to be baptized? According to this scripture to fulfill all righteousness.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> so if Jesus had to be baptized to fulfill all righteousness do we think that we can not do it ? Are we going on our own righteous when we say that we don’t have to be baptized when Jesus had to. Just don’t make sense to me. 3:16 -And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: ( also see he came out of the water meaning he had to be in much water>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>3:17 -And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased ( See if you are baptized God will well pleased with it and you also become his Son.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>So Hoss I hope this answers your question, yes I do believe you have to be baptized to be saved. If not why would it be in the word of God and some form of baptism is found in the bible I think 92 times. Does anyone think that is not important why would it be there this many times>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>May God Bless

The old world never saw rain; they did not know what rain was for God had not made it to rain on the earth. But God sent a massive rain; flood; covered the mountains and destroyed that evil, violent society.
The waters receded and became Oceans.

God said he would not destroy the whole earth with water again, but would destroy the next evil, violent society with FIRE.

A mist went up from the earth each night and watered the whole face of the ground, in that old world. So they knew what water was but not rain.

We see natural fire here, but have not seen the kind of FIRE that God spoke of.

so what is the FIRE which will destroy this evil world today?

Heb. 1: 7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.

(his ministers…. a flame OF FIRE.)

Psalm 104: 4 who maketh his angels spirits;
his ministers a flaming fire:

Two verses confirming that his MINISTERS will be a flaming FIRE.
Rev 11: 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.

These end-time WITNESSES, (true Christians, with the baptism of FIRE).. WILL HAVE…. FIRE…COMING OUT THEIR MOUTHS…… = WORDS.
WITH THESE WORDS WE WILL CONSUME SINNERS OUT OF THIS EARTH.

WE WILL CLEANSE THIS EARTH AND THEN THERE WILL BE WAR NO MORE.

The Double Portion ~~

Deut. 21: 17
But he shall acknowledge the son of the hated for the firstborn, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath : for he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the firstborn is his.
The firstborn son had a birthright, in the OT.  He was to receive a double portion of all that his father had.  
2kings 2: 1 And it came to pass, when the LORD would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal. 2 And Elijah said unto Elisha, Tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me to Bethel. And Elisha said unto him, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they went down to Bethel.
3 And the sons of the prophets that were at Bethel came forth to Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head to day? And he said  Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace . 4 And Elijah said unto him, Elisha, tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me to Jericho. And he said , As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they came to Jericho. 5 And the sons of the prophets that were at Jericho came to Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head to day? And he answered , Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace .
6 And Elijah said unto him, Tarry , I pray thee, here; for the LORD hath sent me to Jordan. And he said , As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And they two went on . 7 And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went , and stood to view afar off: and they two stood by Jordan. 8 And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together , and smote the waters, and they were divided hither and thither, so that they two went over on dry ground. 9 And it came to pass, when they were gone over , that Elijah said unto Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said , I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me. 10 And he said , Thou hast asked a hard thing : nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be so. 11 And it came to pass, as they still went on , and talked , that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
12 And Elisha saw it, and he cried , My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces. 13 He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back , and stood by the bank of Jordan; 14 And he took the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and smote the waters, and said , Where is the LORD God of Elijah? and when he also had smitten the waters, they parted hither and thither: and Elisha went over . 15 And when the sons of the prophets which were to view at Jericho saw him, they said , The spirit of Elijah doth rest on Elisha. And they came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground before him. 16 And they said unto him, Behold now, there be with thy servants fifty strong men ; let them go , we pray thee, and seek thy master: lest peradventure the Spirit of the LORD hath taken him up , and cast him upon some mountain, or into some valley. And he said , Ye shall not send .

Elisha types Christ.  He is the firstborn for the NT Covenant.  He was the first one up in the resurrection.  Jesus is the firstborn from the dead, so the double portion belongs to him.
Now when placing Jesus with Adam, Adam would be the firstborn and have the right to the birthright, or double portion.
But Adam sinned as did Esau.  Adam did not care for this birthright.  He wanted to be above  God, so did not receive that double portion.  It went to the younger brother, Jacob.  Jacob here types Jesus Christ and desired to have that birthright or double portion.

Esau also types the law, which was the first covenant. But this covenant was hated by God as was Esau.  The law could not fulfill the wishes of God, being weak through the flesh.  So God had to turn to another source to find deliverance from sin for mankind.  This failing of the law sets it with the hated Esau and sinning Adam, thus depriving this law covenant the right of the double portion.

What the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own son in the likeness of sinful man, (Rom 8), brought forth salvation and thus became the firstborn in the Spirit.  This set the New Covenant, or Jesus, up to receive the double portion.

Elijah had a great power with God.  Everyone in his day recognized him as the main prophet of God.  Elisha became a follower of Elijah.  When it came time for God to take Elijah up, he keeps saying to Elisha, I am going over there, you stay here.  But Elisha said, no way.  I am not going to leave you.  So he went all the way with Elijah to the Jordon, refusing to take his eyes off Elijah.

He knew something great was about to happen and he determined to be in on it.  He was longing for a double portion of the power he saw on Elijah.  When they came to the Jordon Elijah smites the water with his mantle and the waters parted and they walked to the other side on dry ground.

The sons of the prophets stood afar off, watching.  They represent those who serve God afar off and never move in close enough to really get in on the power of God.   They also knew something great was about to happen, but they only wanted to get a small glimpse of it.  They did not desire to be in on it.  They are the carnal minded, lukewarm Christians.

But Elisha was determined to get that double portion or the birthright.  He has that same determination we saw in Jacob.  He is willing to do whatever it takes to obtain that birthright and double portion.  It means everything to these who truly love God.

Then Elijah asks Elisha what he wants him to do for him, before he is taken away.  Elisha did not hesitate.  He already knew what he wanted.  He said, I want a double portion of your spirit.  Elijah said, you have asked a HARD THING.  But if you see me when I am taken, it shall be yours.
Why would it be a HARD THING?  Because it is seeking the greatest power of God to rest upon oneself.  It is transferring that birthright, double portion of the firstborn to the younger. In this case, it represents that new covenant of Grace as the younger.  Law is being destroyed because God hated it.  The younger or New Grace Covenant is being given the right of firstborn or the double portion.  So this is why it would be a hard thing.

The disciples followed Jesus out to Bethany.  They would not leave him for they knew something great was about to happen.  They wanted a double portion of his Spirit.  They now had the revelation of Scripture, because Jesus had opened their understanding to the Word of God, after his resurrection.
Those disciples now understand what was going on there with Elijah and Elisha.  They now knew what to do.  They were not going to take their eyes off Jesus, but would see him when he was taken.

And so they did.  Ye men of Galilee, why stand you gazing up into heaven?  This same Jesus shall come again, in like manner.  So Elisha picks up that mantle which fell from Elijah as he went up.  He now goes back to the Jordon.  He is excited, I am sure.  But he still has to prove it and put it to the test.
So he rolls up the mantle of Elijah and smites the waters of the Jordon, just as Elijah had done.  He said, where is the Lord God of Elijah?  See, he is seeking to prove that God is now with him as he was with Elijah.  He had watched and had seen Elijah go up.  That mantle had fallen upon him.  He now possess the power which had been in Elijah, only now, it was DOUBLE.

 The waters rolled back and he went across on dry ground!  My, what a moment in mankind.  The 50 prophets watching, knew immediately that Elisha was now the anointed prophet of God.  They came and bowed to him, ready to accept his leadership.

Jesus had said to his disciples, if ye see me go, the same works that I do shall you do and GREATER, because I go to my Father.  They would not leave him for they wanted that power.  
When the Day of Pentecost was fully come, those 120 were together in one mind and one accord, waiting expectantly for the mighty power of God to fall upon them.  They now KNEW what this thing with Elijah and Elisha was showing.  So they waited.  And then the great rushing mighty wind of the Lord fell upon them, and they were filled with the Holy Ghost, speaking in other tongues as the Spirit gave utterance.  They now had the double portion of Jesus’ spirit.

 They could now do the mighty works he had done and greater.  They came out with this great power, healed the sick, raised the dead, converted thousands to Christ in one day.  Even Peter’s shadow could heal the sick.  We have no record of Jesus doing this.  Paul took handkerchiefs from his body and healed the sick.  We have no record of Jesus doing this.  A poison snake hung on his hand and it did him no harm.  We have no record of Jesus doing this either.  Greater works than this shall you do, for you will have the double portion.

The disciples had stood there watching and waiting.  What for?  They were waiting for the ‘mantle’ of Jesus to fall on them.  They knew it was supposed to come down.  But see, the angel let them know it was not time yet.  Go back to Jerusalem and WAIT.  And so they did.  Ten days later, they were endued with power from on high.  Now they can go out and turn the world upside down.  And they did.

One couple lied to Peter, or as he said, to the Holy Ghost and dropped dead.  Jesus never did this.  Greater works shall you do.  Glory!  A double portion.  Not only for salvation, but for judgment.

The 50 sons of the prophets were lukewarm and lacking in faith. They seek to be allowed to go and search for Elijah.  Perhaps God was not able to take him all the way?  Perhaps he took him part the way up and dropped him on a mountain?  NO, do not go.  Do not go search.  God has not dropped him.  Well, we think perhaps God did drop him.  There are 50 strong men with us.  Let us go search and we will prove that God did not do as he said.  He was not able to take Elijah into heaven alive.  

Finally Elisha was ashamed to keep on with this silly debate and he said, go then.  After searching three days, these faithless ones come back to report that for all their mighty strength, they could not find Elijah.

Fifth strong men from Satan cannot stop the glorious power of God.  A stronger than he is here and will stop him and take away his armor in which he trusted.  He trusted on the arm of FLESH.  We are 50 strong men.  Didn’t I tell you not to go?  Why didn’t you believe and listen to the one who now has that mantle?  Why do you refuse to be water baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and receive the Holy Ghost as those anointed sons of God told you to do?  They had the power, so why did you not believe them?  Oh, you trusted in the arm of flesh.  You trusted in church, but not in the Living God to keep his promises.  He can’t heal the sick today.  He is not able.  He can’t give miracles today. He lost his power.  He can’t give the Holy Ghost today.  We can’t speak in tongues today.  Our church says so.  They are 50 strong men and cannot do this thing.  God probably has rejected us today.  He let them fall in the wilderness or the mountains.  But you better run to the doctors today, for God is not in the healing business anymore.
Oh ye of little faith.  How will you get across that Jordon?  You cannot part the waters.

There was a firmament in the heavens.  They were to part or separate the waters = peoples of God from the peoples of Satan. The disciples did just that.  The true disciples still do just that today.  We can still part those waters.  Those of us who receive the Baptism of the Holy Ghost still have that double portion.  We know that God has not lost any of his power nor will he refuse those who believe.  Ask what you will and it shall be done unto you.

That early church had the great power of God and turned the world upside down.  Now it went into apostasy and fell away from Grace, back to law and lost that great power. Thus those witnesses of Jesus Christ lay ‘dead’ in the ‘streets’ for those three days that the lukewarm prophets sought for Elijah.  They did not believe God had the power to deliver.  So they lay dead in the streets.  But Elisha (that early church) had a DOUBLE PORTION.
So they will rise again. They will one more time turn the world upside down and prove one more time that God has not lost one ounce of his power or willingness to heal the sick, raise the dead and change vile people into Saints of God.

See, that Church will once again be endued with power from on high, with a second Baptism.  This time the baptism of Fire, to do what those others could not do, which is to bring the wrath of the Lamb or judgment on this wicked world.  So they have a double portion and therefore will have a second outpouring of the power of God.  This true Church of the living God will show up again on this earth.  We will have that double portion for we are not taking our eyes off Jesus.  We will see him RETURN.  We will not be watching him GO.  We will be watching him RETURN.   His mantle will fall on us, that second witness.
Elisha shows that second witness.  Watch how he did much greater/more mighty works than Elijah had done.

2Kings 2: 19 And the men of the city said unto Elisha, Behold, I pray thee, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord seeth : but the water is naught, and the ground barren . 20 And he said , Bring me a new cruse, and put salt therein. And they brought it to him. 21 And he went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast the salt in there, and said , Thus saith the LORD, I have healed these waters; there shall not be from thence any more death or barren land.

Jesus said, ye are the salt of the earth.  He cast the salt in and healed those ‘waters’ or people.
They had no water to remit their sins.  So the Apostles took them into water baptism for the remission of sins, and their land was healed.  They cast the salt in and healed those waters, or peoples, and they had no more death or barren land.  Now they are fruitful and bringing forth the fruits of the kingdom of Christ.  We are springs of Living waters.  We speak the words of Life and heal those waters.  This is our double portion.

Job 1: 1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil. 2 And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters. 3 His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east.

This great man, Job, had his heart set wholly on God.  He had great riches and ten children. We know how Satan provoked God to come against Job to prove that Job would still serve God no matter what he went through.  So as it happened Job lost all his children and all his substance and then went through great personal suffering.  But through it all Job did not foolishly charge God or turn against God.  He still loved God no matter what he suffered.  BUT Job was showing something here.

In the first part, Job is showing that first, or law covenant.  He was offering up sacrifices for his and his children’s sins.  That system of law had to fall down.  It could not do what God wanted so it had to be destroyed.  As Job lost his children, (those of law), and all his earthly possessions, it is showing the destruction of that old law covenant.
His sufferings show the crucifixion suffering of Jesus, to destroy that law covenant and bring us into grace.

Jesus never foolishly cursed God or turned against him, but said, not my will but thine be done.  He went into death and hell.  He lost those first children, of old law.  But in those three days, that the lukewarm prophets sought for Elijah, Jesus rose from the dead and showed himself alive forevermore.  Those unbelieving prophets were put to silence.  Did not I tell you not to go?

Where was your faith?  Didn’t I tell you that in three days I would rise again?  Why did you search three days to try and find Elijah?  Just wait patiently and I will rise again, as I said unto you.
Isa. 49: 19 For thy waste and thy desolate places , and the land of thy destruction, shall even now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants , and they that swallowed thee up shall be far away . 20 The children which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost the other, shall say again in thine ears, The place is too strait for me: give place to me that I may dwell . 21 Then shalt thou say in thine heart, Who hath begotten me these, seeing I have lost my children , and am desolate, a captive , and removing to and fro ? and who hath brought up these? Behold, I was left alone; these, where had they been? 22 Thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people: and they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders. 23 And kings shall be thy nursing fathers , and their queens thy nursing mothers : they shall bow down to thee with their face toward the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet; and thou shalt know that I am the LORD: for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.

The above was spoken to Jesus, (in prophecy).  It is showing that in the land of his destruction, (where he was crucified), he lost those children.  But then he finds many more.  And He says, after I lost my other children, these, where had they been.  He now has many more than at the first.  He has increased, the double portion.  These people bow to him as those prophets bowed down to Elisha.

Back to Job:  After God brought Job back out of his suffering and captivity, he gave Job twice as much as he had had before.  Watch his children:

Job 42: 12 So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses. 13 He had also seven sons and three daughters. 14 And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch. 15 And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.

See, that double portion here?  The LORD blessed the LATTER end of Job more than his beginning.  He gave him twice as much, that double portion.  But watch his children… He again has seven sons and three daughters.  In all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.

This is the New Covenant of Grace.  Your sons and your DAUGHTERS shall prophecy, under this grace Covenant.  No more keeping the daughters silent.  They were given inheritance among their brethren.  This is the work of Jesus bringing again the EQUALITY which God had made to begin with, with Adam and Eve.  Now women are no longer prohibited.  Grace sets them all free.  Now we are all ONE.  In Christ there is neither male nor female, but we are all ONE, or equals.

Now that early church has a double portion.  The GLORY of this latter house shall be greater than the former house.  Law was the former house.  Esau is this former house.  Elijah was also showing this former house.  But Elisha received that double portion.  Jacob received that double portion.  Jesus received that double portion of God’s power.  The disciples received a double portion of the power of Jesus, doing greater works.

The Church in Peter’s day was now showing the former house, even though with the Law, it was the latter house.  It was much greater than the law house of Moses.  Yet it has such a great portion of a double portion, that it is allowed to return again, one more time, those witnesses will rise again and have a double portion of that first house at Pentecost.

So now those in these latter days will receive a double portion of that early house of the Church of Peter and Paul.  We will bring again the captivity of those lukewarm children of little faith.  When they see that mantle of Jesus on us, their faith will rise and see the glory of God.

We will bring the great power of God on this earth is so much that the dead will rise and come out of the graves into glorification.  Yes, the glory of this latter house will be much greater than the former house of either law or the Pentecost Church.
We will both bring the wrath of the Lamb or judgment on this wicked world, but then the dead saints of God will be raised into immortality and we will be a glorified Church with the double portion of the Spirit of Jesus.

Praise my precious God for this great message.

28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. KJV

     THERE IS NO MALE OR FEMALE IN CHRIST JESUS (Gal. 3:28). Accordingly, all textual references to MALE and/or FEMALE on the LEM Site, point to spiritual principles, and the words MAN and MEN, as well as the pronouns, HE, HIS and HIM, include, WOMAN, WOMEN, SHE and HER.
    CHRIST JESUS IS THE ONLY SPIRITUAL MALE. Accordingly, all powers and principalities other than Christ Jesus are identified as female IN RELATION TO CHRIST JESUS.
     The powers and principalities which incarnated this fallen world (2 Cor. 4:4) are male IN RELATION TO FALLEN MANKIND, and female IN RELATION TO CHRIST JESUS.
     Wherefore, if Christ dwells in you, you are a new [spiritually male] creature (2 Cor. 5:17-18); a sharp, threshing instrument, with teeth (Is. 41:15) strong enough to thresh the spiritually female powers and principalities that bind mankind with the chains of death.
        The physical man is the head of his wife and family, but all males do not have authority over all females by virtue of their physical sex.
         The Spiritual Man, Christ Jesus, has the authority to manifest Himself through whomever He pleases, and when He chooses to preach, teach, or pastor through a physical woman, that physical woman  becomes spiritually male to whatever extent Christ Jesus reveals Himself through her. The indwelling mind and Spirit of Christ Jesus fully qualifies a physical woman to wield the authority of whichever spiritual office Christ Jesus has called her to.
           Physical men and women should never strive with one another but, rather, they should try the Spirit on everyone that they come in contact with, and submit to the Spirit of Christ, wherever. and in whoever, He is appearing.
           God bless you.

Ghost and Spirit are NOT PERSONS.  there is no such thing written in the word of God as a ‘PERSONALITY IN THE GODHEAD.’Now if you think there is, please quote that verse here for me.  I want to read that.Now if you will do a search, you will see that Holy Ghost is NOT ONE TIME MENTIONED IN THE OLD TESTAMENT.Do you have any idea why?  Of course you do not.  You think it has something to do with old English words, or some different Greek words.  It has nothing to do with either.   God does NOT MAKE MISTAKES OR ERROR.  If the KJF is full of error, it is not God’s word at all, so why bother to read it.  And if it is false, how much more are all the others false.  Then you find yourself without one solid thing to stand on.Holy Ghost and Holy Spirit are NOT THE SAME THING, AND NEITHER ONE IS A PERSONALITY.In the OT, the only times ghost is mentioned  [and I say if the word has something to do with a difference in usage in Hebrew or Greek or English, then why is it even rendered as ghost 11 times?  Surely they knew the difference in the words, ghost and spirit?]  Holy Spirit is used only 3 times in the Old Testament.  Each time ghost is mentioned in the OT, it is connected with someone dying;  death.God is a SPIRIT.  It does not say God is a ghost, now does it?  Do you think God is a ghost?SPIRIT…..means a supernatural being or essence.  It also means to give life to the physical organism.But what about GHOST?  Have any idea at the difference?  No you do not.  You have not sought God’s Word and Spirit for this truth.  You jumped all around in man’s tales and junk for answers.  Carnality!  The carnal mind is DEATH.Now. GHOST means the disembodied soul. :  the seat of life or intelligence:.. the soul of a dead person believed to be an inhabitant of the unseen world or to appear to the living in bodily likeness.Now that is from the Webster’s Collegiate.It fits what the word of God teaches.Spirit, or Holy Spirit is God.  it is the Father.  He can send or place His Holy Spirit on certain people.  But since it was only mentioned three times in the OT, it is something he did not do many times.Now on the other hand,  Ghost….is the disembodied soul, or the life or intelligence, of a dead person believed to be inhabiting the unseen world or to appear to the LIVING in bodily likeness.   SOUND FAMILIAR?  It should if you ever read Acts 2.The HOLY GHOST DESCENDED IN FORM OF A DOVE!!!!!  what was it?  The disembodied soul of JESUS CHRIST.True.  and wonderful in its meaning.  It is the POWER from on high to empower those disciples who stood true to Jesus.  Jesus had told them, the things that I do SHALL YOU DO ALSO,  because I go to my Father.Why?  Because then,  AFTER  GOD GAVE JESUS THE SAME POWER AND AUTHORITY AS GOD HIMSELF POSSESSES, TO GIVE LIFE TO WHOM HE WILL, AS DOES GOD,  THEN JESUS HAD THE SAME ABILITY TO SEND HIS OWN……….GET THIS…..GR…..AND ALL OF YOU……GET THIS…..LISTEN AND LEARN TRUTH FROM GOD…NOT SOME LITERATURE OR TV BOOKS OR PROGRAM……….FROM GOD’S WORD.TO SEND HIS OWN GHOST BACK INTO HIS DISCIPLES……CAN YOU UNDERSTAND THE ENORMITY OF THIS?  JESUS CHRIST SENT THE GHOST  [DISEMBODIED SOUL]  JESUS’ OWN SOUL OR HIS OWN SEAT OF LIFE AND INTELLIGENCE…….BACK INTO HIS DISCIPLES!!!GLORY TO MY GOD…….  !  WHEW!  THIS IS WHY PETER COULD NOW RAISE THE DEAD,,,,,,,AS JESUS HAD…..HE NOW HAD THE SOUL OF JESUS INSIDE HIMSELF!!!!  WOW.   NOW PETER COULD HEAL PEOPLE JUST BY PASSING BY THEMMMMM………POWER!!!!!!   PAUL COULD ALSO RAISE THE DEAD….FOR NOW JESUS LIVED INSIDE HIM….  whew  this is just about too much.They could turn the world upside down,  for Now Jesus lived inside them.  It was unseen to this world.  they saw the works  but understood not  how these natural men could accomplish these mighty deeds…….they knew Jesus had done these things…..but now these fishermen were healing everyone who asked for healing…..they were raising dead folks….they were doing might works and miracles…just as Jesus had done.People you have no idea what you are doing when you mock this Holy Ghost.  It is the very soul of JESUS CHRIST.  It is not God the Father.  It is not the Holy  Spirit.  It is the Holy Ghost.  the disembodied soul of a  DEAD PERSON. That is what the dictionary says.  This dead person was JESUS.  Yes, folks, he had to die before He could send this Holy ghost back onto us.  We have received this ghose of Jesus because he had to first die, before he could send his disembodied intelligence back into us. It is the power from on high to annoint the Apostles and us to be His Witnesses.Unless you can perform the supernatural, you do not have any Holy Ghost.  It is certain that you do not have any Holy Spirit.  God the Father does not send that to us.  He gave us to His Son, Jesus.  Jesus sends us His soul, his intelligence.  This is why he said the things which I do shall you do and more, because I go to my Father.  After he went to his Father, he could then send his Ghost upon us…….for God gave Jesus the power God has.Jesus is our God.  It is his soul in us.  Jesus lives inside me.  It is the HOLY GHOST.I will never deny this HOLY GHOST……FOR JESUS DIED  TO GIVE IT TO ME.People wake up!  quit listening to carnal minds taking away your glory, your truth from you.  Listen!  If you have the Holy Ghost in you,  It is Jesus Christ living inside you, in ghost form.He had to die so it would be his ghost.  the disembodied soul of a dead person.   It did not come from the Father, for the Father never died…..indeed cannot die. So he is never said to have a Holy Ghost.  His is the Holy Spirit.Of course all of you who believe they are one and same person, or a trinity, of equal beings,  you have no chance of seeing this great and wonderful truth.Paul said it is CHRIST …….IN….YOU…….THE OR YOUR HOPE OF GLORY.thank you Lord Jesus for giving me your Ghost to teach me your thoughts!Jo Smith9,/17/ 05

Date Posted：07/06/2011 4:21 PMCopy HTMLThe question on Yahoo asked and seemed to be mocking the moving of God in a service.  They alleged that running in church or laughing could not be of God.
this is my answer to that:
******God moves on a person, in his Joy, they may do anything. Laughing in the Spirit is most joyful and is certainly in the Word of God.
I feel sorry for all of you who can scream, hollow, jump up and down, over some silly ball game, but HATE one bit of joyful emotion concerning our glorious god.

God said, make a JOYFUL NOISE unto the Lord.
But this is scorned and forbidden in your DEAD, MORGUE CHURCHES.
God said he hates your SOLOMN MEETINGS. 
So you would rather it be a FUNERAL-type service? and this is making a joyful noise to the Lord.

Lord help you pitiful folks who hate the joy of the Lord. go to a morgue next time. that more suits your kind of ‘worship.

What is not biblical, is this dead, solomn meeting you call worship. God said, I HATE AND I DESPISE your solomn meetings. So there you have the Word of God on this.

You can mock, scorn, and despise the joyful worship, but that is what God loves. Your dead ‘church’ is what God despises.

Edit: @u..You are in a dead church and know nothing about what God does with those who love him.
Genesis 21:6 KJV
And Sarah said , God hath made me to laugh, so that all that hear will laugh with me.
Job 22:19 KJV
The righteous see it, and are glad : and the innocent laugh them to scorn .
Psalm 2:4 KJV
He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh : the Lord shall have them in derision .
Psalm 52:6 KJV
The righteous also shall see , and fear , and shall laugh at him:
Luke 6:21 KJV
Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled . Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh 

so, you think God does not cause us to laugh? you know not the spirit or word of God.
Psalm 126:2 KJV
Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them.
Psm 81: 10 I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide , and I will fill it

How about leaping? Acts 3:8 KJV
And he leaping up stood , and walked , and entered with them into the temple, walking , and leaping , and praising God.

1 Corinthians 9:24 KJV
Know ye not that they which run in a race run all , but one receiveth the prize? So run , that ye may obtain .
1 Corinthians 9:26 KJV
I therefore so run , not as uncertainly; so fight I , not as one that beateth the air:

running is a sign of victory:
Isaiah 40:31 KJV
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run , and not be weary ; and they shall walk , and not faint

so see, you truly cannot say what God wants or does. He hates your solemn meetings.

Your dead, dried up meetings is the thing not backed up in Scripture. Why, the Israelites could be heard for miles when they had meetings and praised the Lord. You have no Scripture for your funeral type meetings. show it to me if you do.
God said, rejoice evermore. I would question a person’s christianity if you have never been in the Spirit of God.

Edit again: is it joyful to scream in the Spirit? you have missed it all by never experiencing this. Yes, very much so. it is natural to fear this, before being filled with the Holy Ghost. but now let me ask you, do the kids go to ball games? does all of that maniac screaming scare them there? think on this…more joy over a silly thing like chasing a ball, the the glorious of God? I think you all need to go back to another church, where you can be filled with the Holy Ghost.

~~ Does God? ~`

Does God give his children vision? I mean other than a mental vision of something to do for him? Let’s just look into the word of God and let God tell us the answer. There are many of Satan’s missionaries out there today who are trying to destroy all of the mighty workings of the Spirit of God upon and to his children of today. Most of them will tell us that these wonderful ‘gifts’ are no longer valid. They say these precious things of the Holy Ghost are not for us today. I say they are workers of Satan and his words they do teach.

Anything that God ever did, He will still do today. He never changes. If He ever healed by just prayer and faith, that is still His way today. If He ever gave the Apostles and Prophets visions, He still does that today. If he ever gave spiritual dreams and interpretations, He still does that today. Today, if you can hear his VOICE harden not your heart as in the provocation. Listen and obey him today and He will give you more. Reject these precious workings of the Holy Ghost, and call it of the devil, and God will never give you any of his glory.

Ac 10:1 There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band, Ac 10:2 A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway.

Ac 10:3 He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius.

Ac 10:4 And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God. Ac 10:5 And now send men to Joppa, and call for one Simon, whose surname is Peter:

This man, Cornelius, did not even have the Holy Ghost at this time, yet God gave him a vision of an angel who came and told him exactly what to do.

Now watch:

Ac 10:9 On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour: Ac 10:10 And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance,

Ac 10:11 And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:

Ac 10:12 Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.

Ac 10:13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.

Ac 10:14 But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.

Ac 10:15 And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common. Ac 10:16 This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.

Three times Peter saw this same vision in which God told him to rise and kill and eat all manner of animals. Not so, Lord. I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean. See? How many of you today would say the very same thing, concerning this vision? Huh? See, God had already commanded them NOT TO EAT OF THE UNCLEAN ANIMALS, yet here a vision is, telling Peter to kill and EAT all of these unclean animals.

Was it of God or was Peter just a proud, delusional person? Think on this. How do you really believe about the NT workings of God with his people? Was that a true VISION from God or a delusion from Satan?

Fake Holy Ghost;  fake holy spirit 

By:  Jo Smith…Dec 30, 2017

God was giving me this message last night.  The truth is not liked and this truth most certainly will not be liked…..but the truth must be told.  The Trumpet of God must sound..those who do not take warning will be destroyed, yet we watchmen will have delivered our own soul, by warning you.

Jesus Christ said, few there be that find the way to eternal life.  He said, wide is the gate that leads to hell and many go in thereat.  He said, narrow is the way that leads to life and FEW THERE BE THAT FIND IT.

So now, think a minute:  do you think that the MANY who keep holidays,  who make merry and exchange gifts are the FEW THAT WILL FIND ETERNAL LIFE?  IF SO, then the saying is a lie.  Few there be that find it….many keep holidays;  in fact almost everyone does.  So that cannot be the FEW.  Think, how FEW of us stand against this evil? 

But what makes the many think they can still do the very things that God commands us not to do, and still find eternal life?  Simple;  they have a FAKE SPIRIT.  There are many churches that give their people a fake holy ghost.  Yes, they truly think that because they have rejoiced a bit;  laughed a  bit;  spoke in some kind of ‘tongues’ and done a bit of dancing about;  or sing in church or preach, that they have the Holy Ghost.

But then why does not their ‘holy ghost’ …or..holy spirit as the other churches call it…why does not that spirit do what Jesus said the Holy Ghost will do?

Jesus said, ‘when he is come He will LEAD you and GUIDE you into ALL TRUTH’.

Then why do all these many church goers not continually grow in knowledge of the Word of God?  Why do they think the Word of God is of very little importance?  The WORD OF GOD is God and is the very most important thing in the world….It is certainly the most important thing for the Christian life.  Prayer and the Word of God is the only means one has of contacting and knowing God.  When you think you must run to some theater-type church building to get with  God, or to hear from God, or feel God’s spirit, you have a fake spirit.  The true  Spirit of God is with us each and every minute.  We can and should stay in contact with God. 

When you still believe the very same doctrine that you believed years ago, it proves the Holy Ghost is NOT leading you or guiding you into ALL TRUTH.  No church has truth and so if you only listen to them and never study for yourself and grow as God speaks to you, interpreting the Word of God to you,  you will never find truth and therefore have a fake spirit, thinking it is the Holy Ghost or spirit.

Jesus said he that believes shall do the SAME WORKS that I do;  heal the sick;  speak in tongues; cast out devils, etc.  Yet most everyone who says they are believers and have the spirit of God, DO NOT DO ANY OF THIS…..so this proves you have a fake spirit.

God commanded us not to look at how the heathens worship their gods and try to do the same to him..He said do not do anything  as worship to me that I did not COMMAND YOU TO DO.  Deut 12.  God did NOT command us to do any holidays.  He commanded us not to bless the day of the birth of Jesus or anyone. 

He said all that they do is an abomination to me.  That means God hates those things.  He refuses them as worship and will cast you out of his kingdom.  God said, the things which are highly esteemed by man is an abomination to God.  Nothing is more highly esteemed than the holidays;  especially Xmess.  Yet you folks, claiming to have the Holy Ghost, JUST LOVE THIS MESS.  You would not part with it for anything.

You will not even read these messages, for you know they speak against your evil ways.  God will still judge you for your evil.  When you teach children that Dec 25 is the birthday of Jesus and that God wants us to do such as decorating trees, exchanging gifts, all kinds of mess, to celebrate that birthday, you are sinning big time and leading those children down the road to hell fire.  You have a fake spirit when you can do these things and just love this evil mess.  You know not the true God.  You have NOT the true Holy  Ghost or Holy Spirit.

You can deceive yourself all you wish to, but you will still be sent to hell, for you are in total disobedience to the Living God.  Jesus said, if you love me, keep my commandments.  He commanded us not to do such things…..so you could not love Jesus…You have the fake jesus.  Yes, Paul said they should bring up a false jesus.  they did just that and every church out there is worshiping this fake jesus;  loving the fake holy spirit/ghost.  Can you really think that the lies told of Xmess, easter, halloween, and all such evil things, really bless Jesus?  Please Jesus?  are done because of Jesus?  to please Jesus?  no one with the true Holy Ghost could believe those lies.  You think the lies of santa and his fake deers is done because of Jesus?  Then all you know is that fake jesus.  The true Jesus said, SPEAK TRUTH TO EVERYONE.  All LIARS will have their part in the lake of fire.  That is where your fake holidays are sending you and your children…hell fire. 

Just because you may have once had a little something with what you call God, does not mean that you are a true child of God today.  When you can love the evil things of this world, such as TV, movies….lying made-up books, holidays, you most certainly do NOT HAVE THE TRUE SPIRIT OF GOD.  You could not do those things if you did.

You can think I am wrong in this all you wish…you think cause you love some church or preacher or fake prophet, that you are a child of God….but that is not what proves you are a child of God.  Obeying God, loving the things that God said to do and hating the things that God condemns is what proves which spirit you have.  When you cannot give up your holidays, your other sins, you DO NOT HAVE THE HOLY GHOST.  You are not a child of God….you are a child of satan.

And this is why you hate for me to teach this truth.  You cannot stand to hear the truth.  You cannot stand to talk about these things and this proves you have a satanic spirit and call it the holy spirit.  You are totally deceived.

When you must cut someone off, that speaks to you about  God,  when you  must change the conversation because you cannot speak of the things of God and Scripture, it proves you have a FAKE SPIRIT and not the Spirit of God.

You refuse to be corrected.  You refuse to listen to those of us who speak truth to you.  You lead your children down that same road to destruction.  You have a FAKE SPIRIT AND IT IS NOT HOLY AT ALL.  It is evil spirit of satan.

marvelous message:

The Wall

By: Jo Smith….July 9,2016

Daniel 9King James Version (KJV)

9 In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, which was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans;

2 In the first year of his reign I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, whereof the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.

Israel, or rather Judah, Jerusalem, down in Babylon for the seventy years captivity. Seventy years.

11 Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against him.

The entire nation had transgressed God’s law and now he poured the curse on them.

13 As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: yet made we not our prayer before the Lord our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth.

If you do not make prayer to the Lord He will not turn you from your iniquities, and you will not understand his truth.

24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.

25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.

Notice all the things that were to be done in those seventy weeks….bring in everlasting righteousness, make an end of sins, etc. Marvelous promises. All of this was to be done during that seventy weeks.

Notice also that there was to be different divisions of times during this seventy weeks. It is cut up into three different time periods. The first seven weeks run from the time of the commandment to RESTORE and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah is to be seven weeks.

Then another sixty-two weeks. This makes sixty-nine weeks. There is one left.

That last week runs from the time the Messiah was cut off until the end of the seventy weeks.

The street shall be built again. The STREET shows the path of the ways of God; the right doctrine or teaching is our street. If you go down a wrong street, it shows false doctrine, leading to hell.

But that is not all: ….and the WALL, (is to be built)..even in TROUBLOUS TIMES.

There you have it all laid out….the path till the end of sins and unrighteousness.

The WALL is the most important element for a safe city. Without that WALL the enemies can just come in anytime and destroy the city. The WALL is your protection and must be built BEFORE the City is built; else the City will be destroyed before you can build the Wall.

Nehemiah 1: 3 And they said unto me, The remnant that are left of the captivity there in the province are in great affliction and reproach: the wall of Jerusalem also is broken down, and the gates thereof are burned with fire.

Nehemiah was in Babylon, serving the king. Someone from Jerusalem came and talked to him and told him the above…the WALL is broken down and the gates are burned with fire.

He cried and prayed and confessed the sins of his people, just as Daniel had done. They are seeking help from God.

10 When Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, heard of it, it grieved them exceedingly that there was come a man to seek the welfare of the children of Israel.

11 So I came to Jerusalem, and was there three days.

Take note of the Sanballat and Tobiah. They are satan’s ministers, trying to stop the work of building the Wall and the City. it grieved them that someone was seeking the welfare of the children of Israel. We have the ‘sanballats and tobiahs’ here today. There are many, seeking to stop this country from turning back to God and FREEDOM.

Notice that it took him three days to come to Jerusalem…representing the three days that Jesus was in the grave.

Enter Donald Trump: … 13 And I went out by night by the gate of the valley, even before the dragon well, and to the dung port, and viewed the walls of Jerusalem, which were broken down, and the gates thereof were consumed with fire.

(Mr Trump fits this exactly. He will be seventy years old when he goes into office and his message is BUILD THE WALL. Keep out the enemies. )

As Nehemiah went out alone at night, to view the torn down WALL and the gates, and he made a plan how to fix or restore it. Donald Trump has had time and occasion to see fully what is wrong with our nation and figure out how to fix it. God is leading this man to help us as he led Nehemiah.

15 Then went I up in the night by the brook, and viewed the wall, and turned back, and entered by the gate of the valley, and so returned.

16 And the rulers knew not whither I went, or what I did; neither had I as yet told it to the Jews, nor to the priests, nor to the nobles, nor to the rulers, nor to the rest that did the work.

17 Then said I unto them, Ye see the distress that we are in, how Jerusalem lieth waste, and the gates thereof are burned with fire: come, and let us build up the wall of Jerusalem, that we be no more a reproach.

18 Then I told them of the hand of my God which was good upon me; as also the king’s words that he had spoken unto me. And they said, Let us rise up and build. So they strengthened their hands for this good work.

19 But when Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, and Geshem the Arabian, heard it, they laughed us to scorn, and despised us, and said, What is this thing that ye do? will ye rebel against the king?

20 Then answered I them, and said unto them, The God of heaven, he will prosper us; therefore we his servants will arise and build: but ye have no portion, nor right, nor memorial, in Jerusalem.

See how Nehemiah’s concern was building the WALL of Jerusalem, that we be no more a reproach. This is the same passion that Donald Trump has for America. He wants to build a WALL that will keep us secure from enemies.

Notice here, that Sanballat and Tobiah mocked him and laughed him to scorn. That is what Donald had to face when he first began speaking his plans. But God will prosper his journey as he did Nehemiah’s.

He told those men, who were not of Jerusalem, that you have no portion, nor right is Jerusalem. Very same message Donald is telling the illegal immigrants that are here. It is the very same pattern. So, this man, Donald, is an earthly sign of what is going on in heaven.

Nehemiah 4King James Version (KJV)

4 But it came to pass, that when Sanballat heard that we builded the wall, he was wroth, and took great indignation, and mocked the Jews.

2 And he spake before his brethren and the army of Samaria, and said, What do these feeble Jews? will they fortify themselves? will they sacrifice? will they make an end in a day? will they revive the stones out of the heaps of the rubbish which are burned?

3 Now Tobiah the Ammonite was by him, and he said, Even that which they build, if a fox go up, he shall even break down their stone wall.

4 Hear, O our God; for we are despised: and turn their reproach upon their own head, and give them for a prey in the land of captivity:

5 And cover not their iniquity, and let not their sin be blotted out from before thee: for they have provoked thee to anger before the builders.

6 So built we the wall; and all the wall was joined together unto the half thereof: for the people had a mind to work.

7 But it came to pass, that when Sanballat, and Tobiah, and the Arabians, and the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites, heard that the walls of Jerusalem were made up, and that the breaches began to be stopped, then they were very wroth,

8 And conspired all of them together to come and to fight against Jerusalem, and to hinder it.

9 Nevertheless we made our prayer unto our God, and set a watch against them day and night, because of them.

When Sanballat heard that we builded THE WALL, we was angry and mocked them. Later after they had half the WALL build, and they could see that the work was truly being done, they became very angry tried to stop the work. Then they said, if a fox goes up on that WALL he could break it down. So see, even many of our own citizens hate for the WALL TO BE BUILT. They will pretend it cannot be done and that it will be no good. But truth of it is, they KNOW IT IS NEEDED AND WILL BE DONE AND KEEP OUT OUR ENEMIES.

THE FEEBLE deceived folks think we should just let our enemies come in and destroy our nation and homes.

10 And Judah said, The strength of the bearers of burdens is decayed, and there is much rubbish; so that we are not able to build the wall.

11 And our adversaries said, They shall not know, neither see, till we come in the midst among them, and slay them, and cause the work to cease.

See, it is the same today; they try to say this work cannot be done and our adversaries want to kill us and Donald and stop the great work.

14 And I looked, and rose up, and said unto the nobles, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, Be not ye afraid of them: remember the Lord, which is great and terrible, and fight for your brethren, your sons, and your daughters, your wives, and your houses.

15 And it came to pass, when our enemies heard that it was known unto us, and God had brought their counsel to nought, that we returned all of us to the wall, every one unto his work.

Watch the exact thing going on today as Donald tells this nation of fight for OUR COUNTRY; our homes. Then they returned to building the WALL. This is God moving on Donald Trump to build us a wall to keep us safe from our enemies. God will fight for us. If God be for us who can be against us? Praise his Holy Name.

18 For the builders, every one had his sword girded by his side, and so builded. And he that sounded the trumpet was by me.

The workers worked, carried a sword and one sounded the TRUMPET BY DONALD.

19 And I said unto the nobles, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, The work is great and large, and we are separated upon the wall, one far from another.

20 In what place therefore ye hear the sound of the trumpet, resort ye thither unto us: our God shall fight for us.

Now we are hearing many saying we are separated or divided. some are calling for unity. In the place that ye hear the TRUMPET, come to us and God will fight for us. Can you, Do you HEAR the Trump? if so, join in on this great work.

Nehemiah 6King James Version (KJV)

6 Now it came to pass when Sanballat, and Tobiah, and Geshem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies, heard that I had builded the wall, and that there was no breach left therein; (though at that time I had not set up the doors upon the gates;)

[See the affirmation? I truly think this proves that Donald will go in and complete this work. It is a true and exact pattern.]

2 That Sanballat and Geshem sent unto me, saying, Come, let us meet together in some one of the villages in the plain of Ono. But they thought to do me mischief.

3 And I sent messengers unto them, saying, I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down: why should the work cease, whilst I leave it, and come down to you?

These wicked men and those who were joined with them never ceased to try and stop the great work of building the WALL. But They finished the Wall and the enemies were angry because God helped them do the work.

Here is our hope:

15 So the wall was finished in the twenty and fifth day of the month Elul, in fifty and two days.

16 And it came to pass, that when all our enemies heard thereof, and all the heathen that were about us saw these things, they were much cast down in their own eyes: for they perceived that this work was wrought of our God.

They could not stop Donald from building our great WALL.

Now you might think a great city does not need a WALL. Well let’s just see what God said about this:

Revelation 20: 10 And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,

11 Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;

12 And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:

13 On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates.

14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

Now let all mouths be stopped with this Word of God. This great Holy City of God had to have a great WALL BUILT BEFORE THE CITY WAS BUILT.

This great WALL even had twelve foundations. Such a mighty WALL!

17 And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and forty and four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of the angel.

18 And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass.

The WALL and the GATES are very important to this great city. All her enemies are KEPT OUT.

Now, there was a city dwelling without walls, gates or bars. Let’s see about that:

Ezekiel 38: 9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.

10 Thus saith the Lord God; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:

11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,

12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.

13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?

So, who were these people who were at REST? They dwelt safely without walls, having neither bars nor gates?

Why was the enemy able to come in and take a prey and carry away silver and gold, cattle and goods?

It was the CHURCH. Yep, this is the seven Churches of the New Testament. Jesus gave them REST by the baptism of the Holy Ghost. They were not under LAW, or a WALL AND GATE.

But what took place?

Satan came in and took the prey; he took their silver and gold. He took away cattle, which is Christian people. Their silver and gold was the glorious baptism of the Holy Ghost and the gifts of the Spirit. They could heal the sick, cast out devils and all kinds of powerful things….at first….UNTIL Satan came into their midst. The seat of Satan was actually in those churches.

See, they had no WALL TO KEEP HIM. He began slowly taking them into false doctrine. He made them take up the idol holidays and that robbed them of their gifts of the Spirit.

At the end of this thing called ‘church’ at the seventh church, they are now all the way to the bottom. They are NAKED, BLIND, FOOLISH, AND DESTITUTE.

So what needs to be done for them?

Donald needs to come along and REBUILD THAT GREAT WALL. The City of the Holy Ghost will have a great wall and great gates. The enemy will never be able to get in and rob this City.

The seven churches IS NOT THIS GREAT CITY. The dwelt without Walls or gates. Just let any old wolf in and pay him to devour those helpless sheep.

It will not happen in this City with the GREAT AND HIGH WALL. Do not allow anyone to trick you into thinking that we do not NEED THAT WALL. yes we do.

If not, the great Holy City of God would NOT HAVE A GREAT AND HIGH WALL AND GATES. God said, no thief, or liar or murder or even a fearful person can get into this WALLED CITY.

This is a perfect type; a perfect sign in earth that it is time for this great Holy City to be built and this great and HIGH WALL. Donald Trump is our great sign that is it time…to rise up and BUILD.

Glory to God for this great and true Revelation.

Amen!
