"Times of Ignorance"

“Times of Ignorance”

Therefore having overlooked the times of ignorance, God is NOW declaring to men that all people everywhere should REPENT, because He has fixed a day in which He will judge the world in righteousness through a Man whom He has appointed, having furnished proof to all men by raising Him from the dead.      Acts 17:30-31



Times of IGNORANCE, these times were when the Gentiles were NOT held to the LAWS of GOD, because they were given to the Nation of Israel.  And God, in His MERCY and GRACE, and being a JUST GOD, OVERLOOKED the sins of the GENTILES.  That is God was PATIENT, and when the GOSPEL of JESUS CHRIST came about, and PAID the PRICE, for ALL MANKIND to be FORGIVEN of their sins, by the SHED BLOOD of JESUS.  They were then held ACCOUNTABLE for their SINS and UNRIGHTEOUSNESS before the ALMIGHTY GOD.  This period of time is known as The Day of GRACE.  A time where IGNORANCE, about God’s view of an UNREPENTANT HEART, is NO LONGER OVERLOOKED.    MANKIND is ACCOUNTABLE for ALL their SINS.  And GOD is DECLARING that ALL PEOPLE, EVERYWHERE should REPENT.  That is to TURN AWAY FROM their sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART. 



The ALMIGHTY GOD, the RIGHTEOUS JUDGE, has FIXED a day in which He will JUDGE the world in RIGHTEOUSNESS by a Man, JESUS CHRIST, whom He has appointed, and having furnished PROOF to ALL MANKIND, by RAISING Him from the DEAD.  God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS can ONLY be obtained THROUGH a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with His SON, the Lord Jesus Christ.  If you do NOT have such a RELATIONSHIP with HIM, you are DOOMED to spend ALL ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, after you are there.  You MUST BE WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle and to TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  Then CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  And BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God. You MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and come out of those TIMES of IGNORANCE, because you are NOW ACCOUNTABLE for your SINS, and you will be JUDGED.  Do this NOW, while you still can, and let your ETERNITY be in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!

Warning: Divine Judgment About to Fall!"

“Warning:  Divine  Judgment About to Fall!”

Woe to those who plan iniquity, to those who plot evil on their beds!  At morning’s light they will carry it out because it is in their power to do it. 

Therefore, the LORD says: “I am planning disaster against this people, from which you cannot save yourselves.  You will no longer walk proudly, for it will be a time of calamity.”                 Micah 2:1,3



This is a WARNING to those who “PLAN”, “PLOT” and “PURPOSE” to actually CARRY OUT their DEVIOUS, DEPRAVED, SCHEMES of INIQUITY, which goes AGAINST God’s Word and His Law.  They PLAN and PLOT even on their beds.  And when they have their PLANS made, they IMMEDIATELY CARRY OUT their WICKEDNESS, regardless of WHO might get HURT or even DIE from their EVIL PLANS.  These are the ones who, are under Satan’s CONTROL, and live to carry out his DEVIOUS deeds.  And MANY in our SOCIETY, TODAY, are in that situation, even those who possess the POWER to CARRY OUT the acts of SINFUL DISOBEDIENCE, according to GOD’S RULE of LAW.    They have actually “SOLD-OUT” to the devil, and are HEADED for GOD’S DEVINE JUDGMENT, where they will be SENTENCED to an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY of ESCAPE, after they are there.  Are you a part of Satan’s camp?  Have you SOLD-OUT to him, because of your REBELLION and REJECTION towards GOD and His SON, JESUS CHRIST?



The LORD GOD says: “I am PLANNING DISASTER against this people!”  DISASTER and CALAMITY, of which they will NOT be ABLE to SAVE themselves.  They will NO LONGER walk PROUDLY about, GLOATING in their INIQUITY and FLAUNTING it in the VERY FACE of the HOLY RIGHTEOUS GOD of the UNIVERSE.  They will PERISH for ALL ETERNITY.  BEWARE, the DEVINE JUDGMENT of the HOLY RIGHTEOUS JUDGE, is COMING, will you be so STUBBORN that it will cause your DESTINY to be an ETERNITY in HELL?



There is a WAY for those who are UNBELIEVERS to ESCAPE HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and to GAIN HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  God’s PLAN is that you would TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  And CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  Then BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and ESCAPE His DIVINE JUDGMENT, and HELL as your ETERNAL DESTINY.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!

"Building on the Rock Eternal"

“Building on the Rock Eternal”

“See, I lay a stone in Zion, a chosen and precious cornerstone, and the one who trusts in Him will never be put to shame.”  Now to you who believe, this stone is precious.  But to those who do not believe, “the stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone,” and, “A stone that causes people to stumble and a rock that makes them fall.”  They stumble because they disobey the message---which is also what they were destined for.       1 Peter 2: 6-8



The ROCK ETERNAL is the LORD JESUS CHRIST.  Remember when Jesus asked Peter: “Who do YOU say I am?” And Peter’s reply was: “You are the Messiah, the Son of the Living God.”  Then Jesus, changed Peter’s name from Simon to Peter, and Jesus told Peter; “on this ROCK I will build My Church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.”  (Matthew 16:14-18).  This ROCK that Jesus was talking about was HIMSELF.  Peter had just proclaimed that JESUS was the MESSIAH, The SON of the LIVING GOD.  And JESUS, being the CHIEF CORNERSTONE of the CHRISTIAN FAITH, His CHURCH, would only go to reason that He is the ROCK ETERNAL, and upon THIS ROCK He will BUILD HIS CHURCH. And not only that, but the gates of hades, which meant His physical death would NOT PREVENT that process from being carried out.



NOW, that we have established the CHIEF CORNERSTONE and the ROCK ETERNAL, being the LORD JESUS CHRIST, let us look at those who will build upon that ROCK ETERNAL.  In Isaiah 26:3-4, Isaiah says:  You will keep in PERFECT peace those whose MINDS are STEADFAST, because they trust in You.  TRUST in the LORD forever, for the LORD, THE LORD Himself, is the ROCK ETERNAL.  Now I know this is referring to GOD as the ROCK ETERNAL, but JESUS is GOD in the FLESH.  And remember that JESUS is the CHIEF CORNERSTONE.



To the TRUE BELIEVER, that CORNERSTONE is PRECIOUS.  It is the STRENGTH and the STABILITY of the WHOLE BUILDING or the BODY of BELIEVERS.  The FAITH and TRUST of the TRUE BELIEVER can be in PERFECT PEACE when their MINDS are STEADFAST in their TRUST in the ROCK ETERNAL, who provides them with ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.


However, to those who are UNBELIEVERS, the CHIEF CORNERSTONE, causes them to STUMBLE and it is a ROCK that makes them fall.  They STUMBLE because of THEIR CHOICE to be DISOBEDIENT to the message of JESUS CHRIST, as REDEEMER and LORD.  They are DESTINED for JUDGMENT and an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY of ESCAPING after they are there.  They were NOT DESTINED to be DISOBEDIENT and to REJECT JESUS CHRIST, as their SAVIOR and LORD, that was THEIR CHOICE. They were DESTINED for an ETERNITY in HELL. So, are you building on the SOLID ROCK ETERNAL?  If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to GOD, by coming to JESUS CHRIST for the SALVATION of your soul, then you are NOT BUILDING on the SOLID ROCK ETERNAL, and are DESTINED for an ETERNITY in HELL.  God wants you to be a part of His BUILDING program and to change your DESTINY from HELL to HEAVEN.  You can do that by: TURNING AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURNING TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  And CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  Then BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS DIED for YOU and is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION and start BUILDING on the ROCK ETERNAL.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!! 

"Do Not DENY Him!"

“Do Not DENY Him!”

If we endure, we will also reign with Him; if we deny Him, He also will deny us.                                2 Timothy 2:12

Whoever denies Me before men, I also will deny before My Father Who is in Heaven.       Matthew 10:33



In 2 Timothy 2:12, we are told that if we ENDURE, we will reign with Christ, this ENDURANCE, is being able to withstand whatever comes our way, and to WILLINGLY CONFIRM our relationship with Christ, even in times of STRONG PERSECUTION.  If my memory is correct, I believe that there was a young lady, at Columbine, who had a gun in her face, and was asked, if she believed in God, her answer was “YES,” then she was shot and killed.  But she did NOT DENY her FAITH!  There have been MANY people throughout the ages who have faced HORRIBLE situations, and when they were asked if they were a BELIEVER in JESUS CHRIST, and they PROFESSED that they TRULY WERE, they were put to death.  And sometimes their children would be HORRIBLY KILLED, before their very eyes.  They ENDURED, and did NOT DENY their LORD.  And they will REIGN with JESUS, when He returns to set up His Kingdom, here, on earth. 



But for those who DENY they KNOW or have a RELATIONSHIP with JESUS CHRIST, in the face of DANGEROUS PERSECUTION, and those who CONTINUALLY DENY and REJECT a RELATIONSHIP with Him, they will be DENIED by CHRIST, in the FINAL JUDGMENT, and will enter an ETERNITY where they will SUFFER ALL the HORRORS of HELL, and they will not be able to ESCAPE, after they are there. 



If you are NOT a TRUE BELIEVER and you do NOT have a RELATIONSHIP with JESUS and His Father, GOD, then you are DESTINED for that ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS.  And your time is RUNNING OUT.  You NEED to be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN to GOD with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  Then BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in HEAVEN, making intercession for you, before God.  Then you MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and with a STRONG STEADFAST FAITH, ENDURE until He RETURNS.  DO NOT DENY HIM!  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!

"The Called Out"

“The Called Out”

You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free.  But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love.     Galatians 5:13

There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called.     Ephesians 4:4



Who are the “CALLED OUT”?  They are those who have TRULY given their HEARTS and LIVES to God, through their ACCEPTANCE of His One and ONLY Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, who gave His life as PAID in FULL for the SALVATION of ALL mankind.  But ALL mankind is NOT ACCEPTING the gift of God, which is the SALVATION of their SOULS.  Many are REJECTING it, and ONLY those who RESPOND to God’s invitation, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART, and will ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, are the “CALLED OUT” ones, because they have been “CALLED OUT” of their SINFUL LIFE and into GOD’S GLORIOUS ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN.



 And they are NOT to use their FREEDOM to indulge the flesh, but they are to TURN AWAY FROM their SINFUL LIFESTYLE and TURN TO GOD.  And their mandate is to SERVE one another, with a HUMBLE spirit, in LOVE. 



The “CALLED OUT” are a part of ONE BODY, the BODY of JESUS CHRIST, and there is ONE SPIRIT, who INDWELLS those who are the “CALLED OUT”.   This SPIRIT will GUIDE, TEACH, and give CONSEL to the “CALLED OUT” ones.   And they are CALLED to ONE HOPE, which is ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS. 



Are you part of the “CALLED OUT”?  If NOT, you will spend your ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS and NO WAY to ESCAPE, after you’re there, unless you are WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  And CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  Then BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS DIED for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God. You MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and become one of the “CALLED OUT”, with an ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN.   Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!

"The Great Intercessor"

“The Great Intercessor”

In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness.  We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.  And He who searches our hearts knows the Mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.      Romans 8:26-27



All of Creation is in a FRUSTRATED mode, awaiting the time, when the Children of God will be revealed, and the Creation, itself, will be set FREE from its BONDAGE of DECAY. It has been GROANING as in childbirth pains right up to the present time.  Even the Children of God GROAN inwardly, yet EAGERLY awaiting the completion of their ADOPTION into the Family of God.



The TRUE CHILD of GOD, at times, are at a loss for the appropriate words to express their feelings, and in these times of WEAKNESS, the Holy Spirit of God, who INDWELLS the TRUE CHILD of GOD, HELPS them, by INTERCEDING for them with DEEP, WORDLESS GROANS. 



And we KNOW that JESUS CHRIST, is the INTERCESSOR for the TRUE CHILD of GOD, and is CONTINUALLY INTERCEDING on behalf of the CHILD of GOD, before God.  And the Holy Spirit, also INTERCEDES for the CHILD of GOD, when they do not KNOW how to PRAY, what words to use, or how to VOICE their prayers.  The Spirit steps in and with DEEP WORDLESS GROANS expresses the FEELINGS of the TRUE CHILD of GOD.



And God, who SEARCHES our HEARTS, KNOWS the MIND of the SPIRIT, who is INTERCEDING for God’s Child, and doing it in ACCORDANCE with the WILL of GOD.  Therefore, we NEED NOT be discouraged when we just don’t seem to have the WORDS we NEED, to express what is in our HEARTS, because the SPIRIT that INDWELLS the TRUE CHILD of GOD INTERCEDES for them. 



However, REMEMBER, the ONLY PRAYERS God hears are from His OWN CHILDREN, those who have TRULY GIVEN their HEARTS and LIVES to Him.  The FIRST and ONLY prayers that He HEARS from an UNBELIEVER, is the PRAYER of REPENTANCE. Once they have voiced that prayer, then He will HEAR and ANSWER their prayers, because they then will belong to Him. 



In order to do that, you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  And CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  Then BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST ACCEPT God’s gift of SALVATION, and RECEIVE the INDWELLING of the GREAT INTERCESOR, GOD’S HOLY SPIRIT.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!

"An Inseparable Love"

“An Inseparable Love”

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?  Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?  No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.       Romans 8:35,37



In ALL of mankind there is an UNRELENTING DESIRE to be LOVED.  But NOT with the kind of LOVE that is CONDITIONAL or SUPERFICIAL, but an UNENDING, FAITHFUL, STEADFAST LOVE.  A Love that can SURVIVE the test of time.  Meaning a DEEP ABIDING LOVE, that will not VANISH or be DEMINISHED in ANY way, shape or form, but will STAND STRONG through the bad times we face DAILY throughout our EARTHLY LIVES.  This PERFECT LOVE can only come from our ONE and ONLY GOD, exemplified through His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.



The Apostle Paul asks a very thought-provoking question.  He asks: “Who can SEPARATE us from the LOVE of Christ?” Now, “the LOVE of Christ” Paul is talking about, is GOD’S PERFECT LOVE manifested in Jesus Christ, keep in mind, Jesus is GOD in the flesh.   Paul is not talking about OUR LOVE for Christ, but HIS LOVE for us.  His LOVE for mankind, is/was SO STRONG, that it withstood AFFLICTION, ANGUISH, PERSECUTION, HUNGER, THIRST, NAKEDNESS and DEATH on the CROSS, which is one of the CRULEST forms of PUNISHMENT that anyone could be sentenced to.  But through ALL of that, and the REJECTION of the SACRIFICE of Christ Jesus by many, His LOVE NEVER FAILED and will NEVER FAIL.  It is AGAPE, GODLY LOVE, LOVE that is UNENDING, and UNCONDITIONAL. 



There is NOTHING or NOBODY who can SEPARATE us from the LOVE of CHRIST.  And we can, be MORE than CONQUERORS, of ALL the things this world throws at us, but ONLY THROUGH the LOVE of Christ Jesus, who LOVED us and GAVE HIMSELF for us.  And because of that INSEPARABLE LOVE, we can have FORGIVENESS of our sins, SALVATION and ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS, and be able to ESCAPE HELL, with ALL its HORRORS. 



In order to do that, you MUST GIVE your HEART and LIFE to GOD. You MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  Then CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  And BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and His INSEPARABLE LOVE.  And spend ALL of your ETERNITY in HEAVEN.  Do this NOW, while you still can.   He’s waiting and COMING SOON !!!

"The Unformed Substance"

“The Unformed Substance”

My frame was not hidden from You, when I was made in secret, and skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth; Your eyes have seen my unformed substance; and in Your Book were all written the days that were ordained for me, when as yet there was not one of them.         Psalms 139:15-16



It amazes me, how some human beings look at the BEGINNING of LIFE.  They think that at the VERY BEGINNING, the FORMATION of the cells is nothing more than a glob of cells, with no VALUE or PURPOSE.  To them, to get rid of these cells has no more meaning than to go to the doctor and have a mole removed.  Well, I’m hear to shed a little light on this very controversial subject. And I will be telling you the TRUTH of the matter.  So here we GO!



King David, realized the REAL TRUTH concerning the BEGINNING of LIFE.  He writes, that his frame was NOT hidden from God, when his parents CONCEIVED in SECRET, and the FORMATION of the cells were SKILLFULLY wrought or brought about in the depths of his mother’s womb; and the EYES of God saw his UNFORMED SUBSTANCE, even then, at that point, was the BEGINNING of LIFE, the LIFE of a FUTURE KING. 



David goes on to say that ALL of his days, from the point of CONCEPTION to the point of DEATH, were PLANNED for him, when there was NOT a ONE of them.  God doesn’t have to wait until a person is born to KNOW all about them.  He KNOWS, before their CONCEPTION.  ALL their DAYS are PLANNED and RECORDED in ADVANCE, by God, Himself.  And WE do NOT decide the DAY we will be BORN nor the DAY we will DIE, that is GOD’S decisions.



MANKIND is TRULY, FEARFULLY and WONDERFULLY made, and it is NOT YOUR or MY place to DESTROY what GOD has CREATED, nor is it our place to CASUALLY take a LIFE, even at the BEGINNING, when it is an UNFORMED SUBSTANCE!  It may be UNFORMED, to the human eye, but in God’s Eyes it is a PRECIOUS LIFE that has a PURPOSE.  That UNFORMED SUBSTANCE is ALIVE and ACTIVELY in the process of becoming a FORMED SUBSTANCE, a HUMAN BEING.  And for someone to DISRUPT that process, is taking a HUMAN LIFE.  I believe that is called MURDER.



Now, I know that is a HARD PILL for some of you to SWALLOW, however, it is, what it is.  In the EYES of the ALMIGHTY GOD, the UNFORMED SUBSTANCE that is planted in the darkness of a womb is LIFE, a LIFE that God, Himself, made PLANS for, from ETERNITY PAST to ETERNITY FUTURE.  When you were an UNFORMED SUBSTANCE, God had plans for YOU, and the apex of those plans, were for your SALVATION and spending ALL of ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS, and being able to ESCAPE an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS.  To do that, you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS, even the FORGIVENESS of taking the LIFE of an UNBORN BABY.  He is FAITHFUL and JUST and will FORGIVE.  Then you MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in HEAVEN, making intercession for you, before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION and REMEMBER, God has PLANS for YOU and for ALL UNFORMED SUBSTANCES.  And be able to spend your ETERNITY in HEAVEN.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!

"My Redeemer Lives!"

“My Redeemer Lives!”

I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end He will stand on the earth.  And after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God; I myself will see Him with my own eyes---I, and not another.   How my heart yearns within me!      Job 19:25-27



Job was a man of EXCEPTIONAL FAITH, in his time of GREATEST DESPAIR, he seems to be at the pinnacle of his FAITH when he declared that he KNEW that his “REDEEMER LIVES!” and in the END of the age, He will STAND on the earth, as KING of KINGS and LORD of LORDS.  



Job BELIEVED that GOD was his REDEEMER, but it was to be God, cloaked in flesh and blood and skin, that being the LORD JESUS CHRIST.   Job wanted people to know that his suffering wasn’t because of some sin that he committed, but it was a TESTING of his FAITH.  In ALL the SUFFERING that Job experienced, he STILL could proclaim; “I KNOW MY REDEEMER LIVES, and that in the END He will STAND on the EARTH.”



Job had little if any HOPE in this life, but he was SURE that he would see his REDEEMER GOD, face to face, in his AFTER-LIFE, because he proclaims that, after his DEATH, when his earthly body has deteriorated and he has his HEAVENLY BODY, he, in his flesh, WILL SEE God;  “I myself WILL SEE Him, with my OWN EYES---and not another.”  Then Job says: “How my HEART yearns within me!”   Do you KNOW that your REDEEMER LIVES?   Does your HEART YEARN within you, at the thought that JESUS is ALIVE, and that He is COMING BACK SOON?



If that doesn’t cause you to celebrate, then SOMETHING is WRONG.  If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to GOD, then you have NO REASON to CELEBRATE, the fact that the REDEEMER of ALL mankind LIVES and COMING BACK to STAND on the EARTH.   Instead you SHOULD FEAR, the thought of His RETURN.  Mainly because, you have REJECTED, the REDEEMER, God’s SON, JESUS CHRIST, and are living a SINFUL lifestyle, and headed for an ETERNITY in HELL, with all its HORRORS and NO WAY TO ESCAPE, after you’re there.  But God LOVES you and has a plan for you to ESCAPE HELL by:  TURNING AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURNING TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  CONFESSING your sin to Him, and asking Him for His FORGIVENESS.  Then BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  Then you MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and like Job, be able to proclaim: “I KNOW MY REDEEMER LIVES, and that in the END He will STAND on the EARTH.”  And ESCAPE HELL and GAIN an ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!

"Having Peace with God"

“Having Peace with God”

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, let us have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand.  And let us boast in the hope of the Glory of God.     Romans 5:1-2



Having PEACE with God, is provided by God for the TRUE BELIEVER, because they have been JUSTIFIED or they have been declared innocent of their sins, through their FAITH in the LORD JESUS CHRIST.  And they have ACCEPTED Him as their SAVIOR and LORD by FAITH.  And through Him they have gained ACCESS by FAITH into GOD’S GRACE, and so we SHOULD BOAST in the HOPE of being able to SHARE in the GLORY of GOD.



An UNBELIEVER, however, does NOT possess the PEACE with GOD, in actuality, they have REBELLION against God and His Son, Jesus Christ.  Having PEACE with GOD, is living by the SPIRIT of GOD, and being OBEDIENT to His WILL and WAYS.  In other words, it is having a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with God, one that is FREE from the REBELLIOUS NATURE of an UNBELIEVER. 



This RIGHT RELATIONSHIP is made possible, through the SACRIFICE of God’s Son, for the SALVATION of mankind.  The shed BLOOD of JESUS, gives us ACCESS by FAITH into God’s AMAZING GRACE, in which we now stand.   A REAL REASON to BOAST in the HOPE of sharing in the GLORY of GOD. 



If you are an UNBELIEVER, you cannot have PEACE with God, but you are actually in CONFLICT with God, because of your SINS.  In order for you to have PEACE with God, you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle and to TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  And CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  Then BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in HEAVEN, making intercession for you, before God.  And ESCAPE an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and GAIN an ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS, by ACCEPTING God’s gift of SALVATION, and HAVING PEACE with GOD.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!! 

"Justified by Faith in Christ"

“Justified by Faith in Christ”

I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.  The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!          Galatians 2:20-21



JUSTIFIED: Being just or right



In order for a person to be JUSTIFIED by FAITH in CHRIST JESUS, they MUST carry out certain things that are pertinent to being JUSTIFIED.   The first thing is, that they are drawn to JESUS CHRIST, by the HOLY SPIRIT of God, and CONVICTED, or experiencing the feeling of GUILT for their sinful lifestyle.  Then they MUST CONFESS those sins to GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART. And TURN AWAY FROM their sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO God. This is what the Apostle Paul said is, to be “CRUCIFIED with CHRIST, and I no longer live, but Christ LIVES in me.” “And LIVING by FAITH in the Son of God, who LOVED me and GAVE HIMSELF for me.”  This is being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH in CHRIST JESUS.  



JUSTIFICATION cannot be gained by GOOD WORKS!  Being JUSTIFIED, is OBTAINED ONLY by the GRACE of GOD, NOT by GOOD WORKS.  Good works are a REFLECTION of one’s FAITH in JESUS CHRIST.  If SALVATION, RIGHTEOUSNESS, and JUSTIFICATION, can be OBTAINED by GOOD WORKS, then CHRIST died for NOTHING!  WHY would He even have to come to earth, and SUFFER, BLEED and DIE, if JUSTIFICATION could be accomplished through our GOOD WORKS.



The ONLY WAY to be JUSTIFIED is through FAITH in JESUS CHRIST, and if you KEEP REJECTING Him, and continuing in your sinful lifestyle, then you are HEADED for an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, after you’re there.  YOU, like the Apostle Paul said, needs to “be CRUCIFIED with CHRIST,” and YOU no longer live, but CHRIST LIVES in YOU.  And you LIVE by FAITH in the SON of GOD, who LOVED YOU and GAVE HIMSELF for YOU.  And BE JUSTIFIED by FAITH in CHRIST.



To do that you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  Then BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and BE JUSTIFIED by YOUR FAITH in CHRIST JESUS.  Do this NOW, while you still can. He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!

"Disobedience vs Obedience"

“Disobedience vs Obedience”

For just as through one man’s disobedience the many were made sinners, so also through the One Man’s obedience the many will be made righteous.     Romans 5:19



DISOBEDIENCE is acting in DEFIANCE to the Almighty God and His WORD and LAWS.  Adam was DISOBEDIENT to God, because he DID what God said NOT to DO.  And because of his DISOBEDIENCE, ALL MANKIND was made sinners.  ALL people are born with a sinful nature, and it is their sinful nature that makes them DISOBEDIENT.  And this DISOBEDIENT NATURE, brings about SPIRITUAL DEATH, with an ETERNITY in HELL with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY of ESCAPING after you are there. 



OBEDIENCE is the act of OBEYING God and His WORD and LAWS.  The ONE ACT of OBEDIENCE that has CHANGED ETERNITY for MANY, is when ONE Man, Jesus Christ, God’s Son, took on Himself, ALL the SINS of ALL MANKIND, He, who knew NO SIN, became SIN, in OBEDIENCE to His Heavenly Father, in order, for those who will be OBEDIENT and accept GOD’S ABUNDANT PROVISION of GRACE and the GIFT of RIGHTEOUSNESS, by ACCEPTING JESUS CHRIST as their SAVIOR and LORD, they will receive an ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.



In order to have that ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  Then CONFESS your SINS to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  You MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  Then you MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and be OBEDIENT to Him and His WORD and His LAWS.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!   

"Don't Throw Away Your Confidence!"

“Don’t Throw Away Your Confidence!”

So, don’t throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.  For you need endurance, so that after you have done God’s will, you may receive what was promised.      Hebrews 10:35-36



CONFIDENCE:  Full TRUST, reliability of a person or thing



Throughout this chapter of Hebrews, the readers are ENCOURAGED to PERSERVE in their afflictions and struggles.  And to NOT THROW AWAY their CONFIDENCE in God and His POWER to see them through each affliction and struggle.  In other words, they were NOT to STOP putting their CONFIDENCE in the ONLY ONE who is ABLE to give them the STRENGTH they NEED to PERSERVE.  And they SHOULD do this because with their CONFIDENCE comes a GREAT REWARD.



They NEED to have STRONG ENDURANCE to do the WILL of GOD.  And when they come to the end of their affliction or struggle, with CONFIDENCE in God, they will RECEIVE what has been PROMISED:  The Coming One, which is the LORD JESUS CHRIST, will COME and NOT delay.  And the ones who will LIVE by FAITH and NOT DRAW BACK into their OLD lifestyle, but will TRUST and have CONFIDENCE in JESUS CHRIST, God’s ONLY SON, to enable them to carry out the Will of God, will have LIFE.  But God takes NO PLEASURE in those who SHRINK BACK, and FAILS to carry out their CHRISTIAN OBLIGATIONS, and they will face EMBARRASSMENT, GUILT and be ASHAMED when Christ returns.  And they will lose their REWARDS.



For those who ENDURED, and put their CONFIDENCE in God and His SON, and did NOT THROW AWAY their CONFIDENCE, they will receive ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN with HONOR and REWARDS for their ENDURANCE and PERSERVERANCE that was possible because they DID NOT THROW AWAY their CONFIDENCE.  Where does your CONFIDENCE rest?



If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to God, then your CONFIDENCE is in something or someone, who is UNABLE to provide for you, what you NEED to ENDURE your SINFUL LIFESTYLE and is UNABLE to PROVIDE you with an ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  And putting your CONFIDENCE in WORLDLY THINGS or PEOPLE, will lead you to an ETERNITY in HELL with ALL its HORRORS and NO WAY to ESCAPE after your there.  In order to CHANGE your DESTINY, you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle and with CONFIDENCE, TURN TO GOD with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  Then CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  And BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  Then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION and PUT your CONFIDENCE in Him, and have ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.   Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!

"Eternal Encouragement and Good Hope"

“Eternal Encouragement and Good Hope”

May our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, who loved us and by His grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word.      2 Thessalonians 2:15-16



These verses of Scripture were the Apostle Paul’s words to the TRUE BELIEVERS in Thessalonica.  They were not JUST words, but they exemplified the Apostle’s HEARTFELT feelings.  He wanted them to be ENCOURAGED even in the face of DISTRESS and ANXIETY.  He did NOT want them to give up in their Christian service, for the sake of the GOSPEL.



 And these words can be an ENCOURAGEMENT to the TRUE BELIEVER of today.  Paul is telling the TRUE BELIEVER, that their LORD JESUS CHRIST and GOD their FATHER, has given them ETERNAL ENCOURAGEMENT.  And that this ETERNAL ENCOURAGEMENT and GOOD HOPE is possible for the TRUE BELIEVER, because of GOD’S UNFAILING LOVE and His AMAZING GRACE.   Keep in mind, that GRACE is; RECEIVING blessings that we DO NOT deserve, like ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS, even though we don’t deserve it.  Jesus Christ, took our sins to the Cross of Calvary, and shed His precious blood, in order for us to RECEIVE God’s AMAZING GRACE, and that is part of our ETERNAL ENCOURAGEMENT and GOOD HOPE.



These days, we face UNCERTAINTIES and experience ANXIETIES, and the Lord KNOWS we NEED this ETERNAL ENCOURAGEMENT, so the one thing that brings CALMNESS and ENCOURAGEMENT to my WEARY SOUL, is WORSHIP and PRAISE.  I go to a QUIET, ALONE place and listen to some WORSHIP and PRAISE music, and the SPIRIT of God that indwells me, fills my HEART to the brim, and my HEART OVERFLOWS with LOVE, PEACE and GOOD HOPE.  Because I feel the AWESOME LOVE that my Heavenly Father has for me, and I begin to REALIZE over again what my ETERNITY holds.  And that is MY ETERNAL ENCOURAGEMENT!



Is it your ETERNAL ENCOURAGEMENT?  It can be, if you will TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  And CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  Then BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and receive ETERNAL ENCOURAGEMENT and GOOD HOPE, knowing that you will be able to ESCAPE an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and RECEIVE an ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  So, do this NOW, while you still can.   He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!

"IF God..."

“IF God…”

If God were to take back His Spirit and withdraw His breath, all life would cease, and humanity would turn again to dust.

For God watches how people live; He sees everything they do.  No darkness is thick enough to hide the wicked from His eyes.        Job 34:14, 15, 21-22



I truly believe that mankind is experiencing, what the Children of God believes, that we are “LIVING in the LAST DAYS. There is Scripture, which tells us; that there is ALREADY a spirit of LAWLESSNESS at work, and it has NOT YET reached it’s CLIMAX, and it won’t until the RAPTURE has occurred and the SPIRIT of God is taken from the earth, because ALL the TRUE BELIEVERS, with whom the HOLY SPIRIT of GOD, indwells, will be gone.  And then the Antichrist will come on scene.  Now, I’ve said this to tell you, that the WORST is yet to come!  We have NOT SEEN anything like what is ahead. 



I believe that WICKEDNESS and DEPRAVITY, will ESCALATE even MORE than it is NOW. Our Scripture, today is from the Book of Job, and these words are from Elihu, who was just a bystander, who was presenting a defensive case for God, to Job and his friends.  And Elihu says:  “IF God were to take back His Spirit and withdraw His Breath, ALL life would cease, and humanity would turn again to DUST”  Sometimes, I wonder why that has not happened, because of ALL the CORRUPTION, VILENESS, DEPRAVITY, WICKEDNESS, and HATRED among those who live in DISOBEDIENCE against GOD, and CONTINUALLY REJECT His SON, the LORD JESUS CHRIST.



Elihu, goes on to say: “For God watches how people live; He SEES EVERYTHING they do.  NO DARKNESS is thick enough to HIDE the WICKED from His eyes.” This LAWLESSNESS, that is taking place NOW, by SOME, who are trying to DECEIVE the people, by carrying out their EVIL DEEDS, which they have CLOKED in SECRECY, is NOT a SECRET to the ONLY ONE, who REALLY COUNTS, the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY, who will JUDGE them in the end. 



But we can be THANKFUL, that GOD in His ABUNDANT MERCY and His AMAZING GRACE, and with His UNFAILING LOVE, will not REMOVE His SPIRIT, right now, nor will He take back His BREATH, and turn ALL of humanity, again into DUST.  “For God SO LOVED the WORLD, that He SENT His ONLY SON, so that EVERYONE who BELLIEVES in Him will NOT PERISH but have ETERNAL LIFE.” (John 3:16)

If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE, to God, then you are facing ETERNAL LIFE in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE after you are there.  However, God has a PLAN to SAVE you from that DESTINY.  You MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO God, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  And CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  Then BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION and ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  And be THANKFUL for His SPIRIT and His BREATH that is in YOU.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!  

"A Message from Jesus"

“A Message from Jesus”

This is the message we heard from Jesus and now declare to you:  GOD IS LIGHT, and there is NO darkness in Him at all.  So, you are lying if you say you have fellowship with God but go on LIVING in spiritual darkness; you are not practicing the TRUTH.  But if you are LIVING in the LIGHT, as God is in the LIGHT, then you have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, cleanses us from ALL sin.        1 John 1:5-7



The Apostle John wanted his readers to know the TRUTH about having a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with God, and he wanted them to be ASSURED that this message was the TRUTH, because it was given to him from the Lord Jesus Christ, to be declared to the readers.  They could KNOW that what John was proclaiming was AUTHENTICATED by the One who was TRUTH.  And the MESSAGE was:  GOD is LIGHT, and there is NO DARKNESS in Him at ALL!  He is RIGHTEOUS, HOLY and PURE.  Therefore, there NEVER HAS BEEN, nor IS THERE NOW or in the FUTURE, any possibility for any TINY BIT of DARKNESS to invade the LIGHT.



Mankind is born into a DARK, FOREBODING, SIN-LADEN world, and they are born with a SINFUL NATURE.  Mankind LIVES in SPIRITUAL DARKNESS, until they ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST as their SAVIOR and LORD.  And they CANNOT have a RELATIONSHIP with God until they come out of their DARKNESS and into the LIGHT.  If they believe that they are able to have fellowship with the LIGHT, yet they CONTINUE to LIVE in SPIRITUAL DARKNESS, and REJECT JESUS as their SAVIOR and LORD, they are LIVING a LIE and NOT practicing the TRUTH.   This frame of mind, will send them to an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, after they get there. 



However, for those who are LIVING in the LIGHT, because they have ACCEPTED JESUS as their SAVIOR and LORD.  They are ABLE to have a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with GOD, and come into His GLORIOUS LIGHT, and become one of His Children, who will INHERIT HEAVEN as their ETERNAL HOME, and have FELLOWSHIP with GOD, His SON, and others, who belong to God.  All this is provided by the PRECIOUS BLOOD of JESUS, which CLEANSES them from ALL sin.  And brings them out of the DARKNESS and into the LIGHT.   Are you still in the DARKNESS?



If you are STILL LIVING in SPIRITUAL DARKNESS, and headed for an ETERNITY in HELL, you can come out of the DARKNESS and into GOD’S LIGHT, and ESCAPE an ETERNITY in HELL, by TURNING AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURNING TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  Then CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  And BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST ACCEPT God’s gift of SALVATION, and COME OUT of the DARKNESS and become a TRUE CHILD of the LIGHT.   Do this NOW, while you still can.   He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!! 

"Know!"

“Know!”

We know that God’s Children do not make a practice of sinning, for God’s Son holds them securely, and the evil one cannot touch them.  We know that we are the Children of God and that the world around us is under the control of the evil one.   And we know that the Son of God has come, and He has given us understanding so that we can know the True God.  And now we live in fellowship with the True God because we live in fellowship with His Son, Jesus Christ.  He is the only True God, and He is Eternal Life.      1 John 5:18-20



KNOWLEDGE is a wonderful thing to possess, and when it is USED properly, it becomes WISDOM. And will give birth to WISE DECISIONS and an UNDERSTANDING of certain facets of our LIVES.



 One thing that is of the UTMOST IMPORTANCE to the TRUE Child of God, is that they KNOW that they do NOT CONTINUE to PRACTICE SINNING.  Jesus, the TRUE SON of the LIVING God, holds them SECURELY, which means that the TRUE CHILD of God is SAFE from the grasp of the DEVIL, because Jesus HOLDS them, and the Devil cannot steal away from God, what belongs to God.

The TRUE Child of God, KNOWS that they are SEPARATED from this SIN-LADEN, EVIL-MINDED, and CORRUPTED world that is all around us, and is controlled by the EVIL ONE, the Devil.  And they SHOULD KNOW that the SON of GOD has come and given them UNDERSTANDING so that they can KNOW the ONE TRUE GOD.  And they would be able to FELLOWSHIP with the TRUE GOD because they FELLOWSHIP with His Son, Jesus Christ.  Because of Christ’s REDEEMING work on the Cross, the Child of God can KNOW the ONLY TRUE GOD, who is JESUS CHRIST in the flesh, and they can KNOW that they will have ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  Do you KNOW that to be TRUE of yourself? 



If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to GOD, then you do NOT possess the ability to KNOW the One who is the ONE TRUE GOD and is ETERNAL LIFE for the TRUE CHILD of GOD.  You are LOST in your sins and you KNOW the EVIL One, who is leading you to an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, after you’re there.  You NEED to CUT TIES with the Devil, and TURN AWAY from your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  And CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS. Then BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you before God.  You MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION and KNOW for SURE that you KNOW the ONLY TRUE GOD and His SON, JESUS CHRIST, and that you have ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.   Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!



  

"Do NOT Be Deceived!"

“Do NOT Be Deceived!”

Little children, make sure no one deceives you; the one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous; the one who practices sin is of the devil; for the devil has sinned from the beginning.  The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil.     1 John 3:7-8



There are two groups of people on earth, the RIGHTEOUS and the UNRIGHTEOUS.  Let’s take a look at both of these groups, and see if any of us have been DECEIVED into believing lies instead of the TRUTH of the matter.   Let us, first, look at the RIGHTEOUS person, they are the ones, who have GENUINELY given their HEART and LIFE to God, and has TURNED AWAY FROM their SINFUL lifestyle.  They no longer PRACTICE or CONTINUE sinning, this is NOT to say that a Christian DOESN’T COMMIT sins, but the KEY WORD, here is PRACTICE sin.  Because their HEART and MIND has CHANGED from UNRIGHTEOUS LIVING to RIGHTEOUS LIVING, they become a NEW PERSON, with NEW DESIRES and a NEW LIFESTYLE.  The Apostle Paul says: “If anyone is in Christ, they are a NEW CREATURE; the OLD THINGS have PASSED AWAY; behold, NEW THINGS have come.”  (1 Corinthians 5:17).  A TRUE BELIEVER of Jesus Christ, will PRACTICE RIGHTEOUSNESS, and should STRIVE to LIVE a RIGHTEOUS LIFE.  Their FUTURE holds for them, an ETERNITY in HEAVEN with ALL its BLESSINGS.



However, for the UNRIGHTEOUS, those who PRACTICE SIN, and CONTINUING in their SINFUL lifestyle, EVERYDAY.   Making it a HABIT, and they do this, because this SINFUL, DEPRAVED WORLD, that is CONTROLLED by the DEVIL, has DECEIVED them into BELIEVING lies about their immorality, and ungodly lifestyles.  They have been DECEIVED about the LOVE of GOD, and His SON, the LORD JESUS CHRIST, who came to earth to DESTROY the works of the devil.  And to SAVE MANKIND from their SINFULNESS, to give them a WAY of ESCAPING an ETERNITY in HELL with ALL its HORRORS.  Those, who CONTINUE to PRACTICE their SINFUL lifestyles, are of the Devil and they are being DECEIVED and at RISK of spending ALL of their ETERNITY in HELL. 



Ephesians 5:6 says: “Let no one DECEIVE you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of DISOBEDIENCE.”  So be careful, who you are LISTENING to and FOLLOWING, they could be DECEIVING and LEADING you to an ETERNITY in HELL.  If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to God, then you are LIVING a LIE.  Your destiny will be determined by whether you are RIGHTEOUS or UNRIGHTEOUS. 



The ONLY WAY you can become RIGHTEOUS is for you to be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and to TURN TO God, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  Then CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  And BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  Then you MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION and become RIGHTEOUS as He is RIGHTEOUS, and receive an ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS. And DON’T BE DECEIVED! Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!! 

"Freedom and Confidence"

“Freedom and Confidence”

In Him and through faith in Him we may approach God with freedom and confidence.    Ephesians 3:12



In years past, and today also, men and women have and are sacrificing for the LIFE, LIBERTY, and the PURSUIT of HAPPINESS for their fellow Americans.  Jesus said: “No one has GREATER LOVE than this, that someone would lay down his life for his friends.”  (John 15:13) And many American soldiers have done that, in order to provide FREEDOM for their FAMILIES and FRIENDS. 



Because God so LOVED the World, He gave His ONLY SON, Jesus, to DIE, for the SINS of ALL MANKIND, and to provide a WAY for MANKIND to be able to approach God, with FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE.  And in Jesus and through FAITH in HIM we have the ability to have FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE to come to God, in PRAYER, as a part of our WORSHIP experience, and to establish a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP, with our CREATOR.  We have the FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE to express our LOVE and DEVOTION to Him, and to offer up to Him intercessory prayer requests, which is PRAYING for OTHERS. 



All of this is made POSSIBLE, because of GOD’S ABUNDANT MERCY, His AMAZING GRACE, and His UNFAILING LOVE, that was exemplified through the SACRIFICE of our LORD JESUS CHRIST, who LAID DOWN His LIFE, so we might have FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE with GOD.  Do you have that FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE with God?



If you have NOT TRULY GIVEN your HEART and LIFE to God, then you do NOT have that FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE, because you are clinging to your sinful lifestyle, and are in BONDAGE to your sins.  In order to have that FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE, you first MUST have a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with God.  And to do that you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  Then CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  And BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in HEAVEN, making intercession for you, before God.  Then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and the FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE to approach GOD with a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with Him, and receive HEAVEN as your ETERNAL HOME.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!

"Set Free!"

“Set Free!”

“Therefore, my friends, I want you to know that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you.  Through Him everyone who believes is set free from every sin, a justification you were not able to obtain under the law of Moses.”     Acts 13:38-39



FREEDOOM is a PRECIOUS COMMODITY, for people to CHERISH and HOLD ON to.  It means being FREE to LIVE our lives, under laws, but without being CONTROLLED by ANYONE or ANYTHING ELSE.  We are FREE to make our OWN decisions, and FREE to WORSHIP our CREATOR GOD.  



Our Scripture tells us that through JESUS we have FORGIVENESS of our SINS, and those who BELIEVE in JESUS CHRIST, as their SAVIOR and LORD, WILL be SET FREE from EVERY sin, which is a JUSTIFICATION that could NOT be OBTAINABLE under the Law of Moses.  What LOVE GOD has for us, and has PROVIDED a WAY in our DESERT of DESPAIR, to SET us FREE from the BONDAGE of SIN, and a DESTINY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, after you’re there.  FREEDOM from ALL our SINS!  EVERY DAY should be a DAY of CELEBRATION of our FREEDOM from SIN and its HOLD ON us.



Proverbs 11:21 says, “Be sure of this:  The wicked will NOT go unpunished, but those who are RIGHTEOUS will go FREE.”  A stark contrast between the WICKED and the RIGHTEOUS, PUNISHMENT and FREEDOM.  So, which will it be for you? 



If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to God, then you are NOT FREE.  You are HELD in BONDAGE to your sinful lifestyle, and your PUNISHMENT is an ETERNITY in HELL. There is a WAY for you to ESCAPE that DESTINY, and it is this; you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  And CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  Then BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and BE SET FREE from your SINS. And spend your ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!

"The Mouth Speaks What the Heart Holds"

“The Mouth Speaks What the Heart Holds”

“You brood of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak what is good? For the mouth speaks out of that which fills the heart.”     Matthew 12:34.

“But I tell you that every careless word that people speak, they shall give an accounting for it in the Day of Judgment.  “For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”    Matthew 12:36-37



These words were spoken by the Lord Jesus Christ, to a group of people, and within that group, were some Pharisees, some believe that Jesus’ words were directed mainly at them.  Because they were the Religious leaders, and their WORDS were NOT what was NEEDED for the benefit of the people.  In a lot of cases they were leading the people in the WRONG direction, ESPECIALLY, with their REJECTION of JESUS as the SON of the Living God, nor did they BELIEVE that He was the PROMISED MESSIAH.



And that was why Jesus called them a “BROOD of VIPERS (SNAKES), He ask them: “How can you, being EVIL, speak what is good?  For the MOUTH speaks out of that which fills the HEART.”  In other words, Your MOUTH will REVEAL what the CONTENT of your HEART is.  If you are NOT a TRUE CHILD of God, that is, if you have NOT TOTALLY GIVEN your HEART and LIFE to God, then your HEART is EVIL, and your MOUTH, will give it AWAY, by the CARELESS, WORTHLESS, INSIGNIFICANT, WORDS you speak.



And therefore, mankind needs to be VERY CAREFUL of the WORDS they SPEAK, because they will be held ACCOUNTABLE on the Day of Judgment for their CARELESS WORDS.   Words that would TURN PEOPLE AWAY from, the LORD JESUS, words that would bring HURT and HARM to someone who is struggling with their SPIRITUAL LIFE.   Words that would bring SHAME and DISHONOR to the HOLY RIGHTEOUS GOD of the UNIVERSE. 



The Word of God says: “The GOOD man brings out of their GOOD treasure what is GOOD; and the EVIL man brings out of their EVIL treasure, what is EVIL.” (v 35)  So, the question is:  What are you bringing out of your TREASURE, GOOD or EVIL?  Keep in mind, that your WORDS, will REVEAL what the HEART HOLDS.  And by your WORDS you will be JUSTIFIED or CONDEMNED, depending on if you have given your HEART and LIFE to God, if NOT you, by the CONTENTS of your HEART, REVEALED by the WORDS of your MOUTH, will determine whether you will be JUSTIFIED or CONDEMNED.  In order to be JUSTIFIED, you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM YOUR sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  Then CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  And BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and let the WORDS of your MOUTH and the MEDITATION of your HEART be PLEASING and ACCEPTABLE to God.    Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!

"The Rock Eternal"

“The Rock Eternal”

Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD, the LORD Himself, is the Rock Eternal.    Isaiah 26:4

Truly He is my Rock and my Salvation, He is my Fortress, I will not be shaken.     Psalm 62:6

The Lord God will keep those whose minds are STEADFAST, or FIRM in purpose, in PERFECT PEACE.  This PERFECT PEACE is a COMPLETE or GENUINE peace that is given to those who TOTALLY TRUST in the Lord God for His gift of SALVATION.

He is MORE than WORTHY of their TRUST, because He is their ROCK ETERNAL, and what exactly does that mean.  I think it means that He is ABLE to do ALL that He PROMISES to do, especially, when it comes to the ETERNAL DESTINY of mankind.  He is ABLE, because He is the STRONG, ALMIGHTY GOD and His STRENGTH has NO LIMITS.  And it is from EVERLASTING to EVERLASTING.  It NEVER WEAKENS, it is STRONG and MIGHTY like a SOLID ROCK. 

Many years ago, we took a trip to Oklahoma and I was AMAZED at the HUGE, MASSIVE, ROCKS, just like the ones you see on the old western movies.  These ROCKS were MASSIVE and SO STRONG LOOKING.  I wondered how old they were.  To me, they are a GOOD example of the ROCK ETERNAL, that is AVAILABLE to the TRUE BELIEVER.  King David penned in Psalm 62:6:  Truly He is my Rock and my SALVATION, He is my FORTRESS, I will NOT be SHAKEN. 

The TRUE BELIEVER, can, TRUST in the ROCK ETERNAL, in the GOOD and BAD times that they face in their lives, because He is their ROCK, SALVATION and their FORTRESS, which they can run to and find that PERFECT PEACE.  Is He your ROCK ETERNAL?

If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to God, He is NOT your ROCK, SALVATION, or your FORTRESS.  And you are HEADED for an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE.  However, God wants to be YOUR ROCK ETERNAL, and in order for that to happen, you MUST BE WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  Then CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  And BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION and allow Him to be your ROCK ETERNAL, the ROCK of your SALVATION, and a STRONG FORTRESS that you can RUN to for that PERFECT PEACE, and also to have ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  Do this NOW, while you still can.   He’s waiting and COMING SOON!!!
