JESUS IS MY SHEPHERD
IF I ALLOW THE LORD TO BE MY SHEPHERD BY LETTING HIM GUIDE ME, THEN I WILL NO LONGER WANT ANYTHING ELSE. I WILL BE IN PEACE WHEN I LAY DOWN TO SLEEP. WHEN I GET INTO TROUBLE, I KNOW HE WILL HELP ME OUT OF IT. HE IS THERE FOR ME, AND HE WILL SHOW ME THE RIGHT WAY TO GO.
HE KNOWS I WANT TO DO THINGS FOR HIM. IF I DIED TODAY, I WOULD NOT BE AFRAID BECAUSE GOD IS MY FATHER. HE WILL DISCIPLINE ME WHEN I NEED IT.
GOD HELPS ME PREPARE MYSELF BY ANOINTING ME WITH HIS HOLY SPIRIT WHEN MY ENEMY COMES AGAINST ME AND ATTACKS ME. HE WANTS TO BLESS MY LIFE BECAUSE I OBEY HIM.
HIS GOODNESS AND MERCY IS WITH ME. WHEN I GO TO BE WITH JESUS FOREVER, AND I SEE MY HOME IN HEAVEN. PSALMS 5:8, PSALMS 23:1-6, EZEKIEL 34:14, PHILIPPIANS 4:19, REVELATION 7:17
JESUS IS GOD ALMIGHTY
IN THIS STUDY I WILL BE PROVING TO YOU THAT JESUS IS GOD THROUGH THE SCRIPTURES. IN DEUTERONOMY, 1 SAMUEL, AND 1 KINGS TELLS US AUTOMATICALLY WHO JESUS IS. PSALMS, JEREMIAH AND JOHN, SAY JESUS IS OUR GOD AND SALVATION COMES THROUGH HIM.
HE IS THE ONE WHO CREATED HUMANS, ANIMALS, AND PLANTS. CHRISTIANS ARE HIS PEOPLE OR HIS SHEEP. HE PROTECTS US WHEN WE OBEY HIM. HE IS ALIVE, NOT DEAD. GOD IS OUR ONE TRUE GOD. ALL OTHER GODS ARE FALSE. HE IS OUR KING FOREVER.
WHEN HE COMES BACK AS JUDGE, NO MAN, WOMAN OR CHILD WILL BE ABLE TO STAND IN HIS PRESENCE. HE IS GOD OVER ALL FLESH, WHETHER YOU ARE FOR HIM OR AGAINST HIM. DEUTERONOMY 4:35, 1 SAMUEL 2:2, 1 KINGS 8:60, PSALMS 68:20, PSALMS 100:3, PSALMS 140:7, JEREMIAH 10:10, JEREMIAH 32:27, JOHN 6:44.
THE ANGEL TOLD MARY THAT SHE WAS GOING TO HAVE A BABY AND IT WAS GOING TO BE A SON. HIS NAME IS EMMANUEL, AND EMMANUEL MEANS GOD WITH US, SO MARY CHOSEN TO BE THE ONE WHO WAS THE MOTHER OF OUR GOD, SAVIOR, AND LORD, AND HE BECAME THE FINAL ULTIMATE SACRIFICE FOR SIN, AND HE WAS OBEDIENT TO FULFILLING HIS PURPOSE.
THERE IS ONLY ONE TRUE JESUS, AND HE CAME TO SAVE US FROM OUR SINS, SATAN, DEMONS, AND THINGS SATAN TRIES TO GIVE US. MATTHEW 1:23, 1 TIMOTHY 3:16, TITUS 2:13 TITUS 2:14, JESUS IS THE WORD. HIS NAME MEANS GOD WITH US.
THE WORD CAME ALIVE WHEN JESUS CAME TO US IN THE FLESH. WHEN HE BECAME AN ADULT, HE TAUGHT US HOW TO LIVE A RIGHTEOUS AND HOLY LIFE. HE IS DOING THE SAME THING TODAY BY TEACHING US THE TRUTH OF GOD'S WORD THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT.
AFTER HIS SPIRIT LEFT HIS BODY ON THE CROSS, HE WENT TO HELL TO TELL PEOPLE ABOUT HIM WHO NEVER HAD THE CHANCE TO GET TO KNOW HIM AS THEIR SAVIOR AND LORD, THEN HE CAME BACK TO SHOW OTHERS HE WAS ALIVE.
HE TOLD THEM HE HAS ALL POWER IN HEAVEN AND ON THE EARTH. JOHN 1: 1, JOHN 1: 14, JOHN 14: 17, JOHN 14: 26, JOHN 15: 26, JOHN 16: 13, 1 PETER 3: 19, REVELATION 19: 13.
JOSHUA TELLS PEOPLE TO LOVE THE LORD AS THEIR GOD, WALK IN HIS WAYS, KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS, LEARN TO GET CLOSER TO JESUS AS THEIR GOD, AND SERVE HIM WITH ALL THEIR HEART AND SOUL. JESUS WENT BACK TO HIS DISCIPLES. WHEN THOMAS SAW JESUS, HE TOUCHED JESUS; THEN HE REALIZED WHO JESUS WAS, CONFESSED HIM AS HIS LORD AND GOD.
WHEN STONED TO DEATH, STEPHEN SAW JESUS AND SAID LORD JESUS RECEIVE MY SPIRIT, SO EVEN STEPHEN CONFESSED JESUS TO BE HIS LORD AND GOD. MANASSEH CONFESSED JESUS AS HIS GOD WHEN HE HUMBLED HIMSELF AND PRAYED TO JESUS AND JESUS ANSWERED HIS PRAYER, JESUS SAID HE WAS GOD.
BIBLE SAYS HE IS ALMIGHTY, THE CHILDREN OF REUBEN AND GAD CONFESSED JESUS AS GOD, BIBLE SAYS PEOPLE OF ISRAEL IS GOD'S CHOSEN PEOPLE, THEY ACCEPT JESUS AS GOD, JOSHUA 22:5, JOSHUA 22:34, 1 CHRONICLES 17:22, 2 CHRONICLES 33:12, 2 CHRONICLES 33:13, ISAIAH 43:12, JOHN 20:28, REVELATION 1:8
GODLY MINISTRIES WORK
MAKE SURE YOUR CALLING AND VISION IS OF GOD, BECAUSE IF YOU ONLY LISTEN TO YOUR THOUGHTS ON WHAT YOU THINK YOUR CALLING OR VISION IS, THEN WILL NOT LAST. KNOW WHAT GOD WANTS YOU TO DO WITH THAT CALLING OR VISION, AND DO WHAT IT TAKES TO ALLOW GOD TO USE IT THROUGH YOU. 2 CHRONICLES 26:5, ACTS 20:24, PHILIPPIANS 3:14, KNOW IT IS GOD DIRECTING YOU, AND NOT YOUR OWN IDEAS, BECAUSE YOU DO NOT ALWAYS THINK THE WAY YOU SHOULD, AND GOD'S THOUGHTS ARE NOT ALWAYS THE SAME AS YOURS.
PRAY FOR GOD'S DIRECTION, BECAUSE THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT YOU CAN TRUST HIM TO GIVE YOU A CLEAR PICTURE IN YOUR MIND ON WHAT HE WANTS YOU TO DO WITH YOUR CALLING OR VISION. PSALMS 143:8, ISAIAH 55:8, PRAY FOR SOULS TO BE SET FREE FROM SATAN, HIS DEMONS AND EVERYTHING THAT COMES WITH THEM. WHEN GOD CALLS YOU TO DO SOMETHING, GO ON FOR HIM, DO NOT DECIDE TO GO BACK INTO THE WORLD, BECAUSE THEN YOU WILL NO LONGER BE WORTHY TO BE IN THAT MINISTRY HE PUT YOU IN. JOEL 2:12-13, LUKE 9:62, PHILIPPIANS 3:13-14.
WHEN YOU MAKE A DECISION, STICK TO IT, NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE SAY OR DO, BECAUSE IF YOU WORRY ABOUT WHAT THEY SAY OR DO, THEN YOU WILL NEVER GET ANYWHERE WITH YOUR MINISTRY, BECAUSE IT IS SHOWING YOU ARE FOLLOWING YOUR FLESH MORE THAN YOU ARE FOLLOWING GOD, AND YOU WILL NOT SUCCEED THAT WAY, AND YOU WILL NOT GET ANYTHING FROM GOD BY DOING THINGS IN THE FLESH, AND YOU WILL GET INTO CONFUSION, WHICH IS NOT OF GOD, AND END UP DOING THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT GOD WANTED YOU TO DO IN THE FIRST PLACE AND END UP QUITTING. 1 CORINTHIANS 14:33, JAMES 1:6-8.
WE MUST DO WHAT GOD WANTS US TO DO, EVEN IF IT IS TESTS TO GO THROUGH, AND WE CANNOT BE AFRAID, BECAUSE IF WE ARE, THEN WE ARE NOT TRUSTING GOD TO HELP US GET THROUGH ALL THE THINGS HE PUTS US THROUGH, OR WE ARE NOT TRUSTING IN THE FACT THAT HE LOVES US ENOUGH TO TAKE AWAY THAT FEAR, AND WE MUST BELIEVE AND HAVE FAITH TO LEARN TO GO ON NO MATTER WHAT. 1 JOHN 4:17-18, WHEN YOU ARE IN A MINISTRY, LEARN TO LIVE A LIFE OF LOVE AT ALL TIMES. KEEP WORKING FOR GOD UNTIL JESUS COMES BACK, BECAUSE GOD CAN IMPROVE WHAT YOU DO FOR HIM MORE AND MORE TO BRING YOUR WORK TO PERFECTION. 2 CHRONICLES 8:16, 1 CORINTHIANS 13:4-7
THE FIRST PART OF THIS WAS STEPS TO TAKE NOW I AM GOING TO SHOW YOU WHAT ELSE YOU NEED TO DO TO MAKE A MINISTRY WORK FROM MY OWN PERSONAL EXPERIENCE. I HAVE LEARNED WHEN IT COMES TO MINISTRY IT IS NOT ABOUT ME, IT IS ABOUT GOD AND OTHERS. MY FOCUS SHOULD BE ON GOD AND PLEASING HIM. I TAKE MY FOCUS OFF MYSELF AND DO WHAT HE WANTS. HE WANTS ME TO RESPECT AUTHORITY HE HAS PUT IN MY LIFE, AND BE READY ANYTIME I AM NEEDED, AND NOT WHEN IT IS CONVENIENT FOR ME.
I OBEY RULES EVEN WHEN I DO NOT LIKE THEM. I GO AN EXTRA MILE TO HELP SOMEONE IN NEED LIKE TALKING WITH SOMEONE UNTIL THEY FEEL BETTER ABOUT THEIR SITUATION OR AT LEAST UNTIL THEY FEEL GOD HAS GIVEN THEM THE ANSWERS THEY NEED. I NEED TO ASK AS MANY QUESTIONS I CAN TO HELP PEOPLE FOCUS ON A SOLUTION TO THEIR PROBLEMS. SOMETIMES IT IS BEST TO LET PEOPLE TALK AND I LISTEN, BECAUSE IF I DO ALL THE TALKING, IT SHOWS THE OTHER PERSON I REALLY DO NOT WANT TO LISTEN TO THEIR PROBLEMS, AND DO NOT WANT TO REALLY BE THERE FOR THEM.
AS I AM COUNSELING THEM I NEED TO MAKE SURE THEY STAY ON THE TOPIC, BECAUSE IF THEY START TALKING ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE THEY MAY NEVER GET HELP THEY NEED, AND THEY GO AWAY STILL UPSET. I NEED TO REALIZE THOUGH, IF THEY DO GET OFF TOPIC, IT MAY BE BECAUSE THEY ARE GETTING TOO STRESSED OUT AND NEED A TIME OUT, SO WHEN I RECOGNIZE THAT, I NEED TO ASK THEM IF THEY WOULD LIKE TO TALK SOME OTHER TIME, BECAUSE WAY I AM LETTING THEM KNOW I CARE ABOUT THEM AND EVEN IF THEY STOP TALKING THEY CAN COME BACK TO ME LATER IF THEY WANT.
I KNOW WHEN GOD PUTS ME IN A MINISTRY, I NEED TO GIVE IT MY ALL, PUT MY FEELINGS AND THOUGHTS ASIDE, AND LET FAITH STEP IN AND TAKE OVER, AND PUT FAITH INTO ACTION, AND LET ACTION CONTINUE, AND NOT JUST DO IT FOR A WHILE AND PICK IT BACK UP WHEN I FEEL LIKE IT. IF I DO NOT HAVE GOD AND LOVE, MY MINISTRY IS DEAD, BECAUSE IT TAKES GOD AND LOVE TO MAKE A MINISTRY WORK, AND WITHOUT GOD AND LOVE, I DO NOT HAVE FAITH. IF I DO NOT HAVE FAITH, THEN I AM DEAD SPIRITUALLY, AND IT TAKES FAITH AND PERSEVERANCE TO LIVE THIS LIFE OF MINISTRY WORK FOR GOD. IF I HAVE AN ATTITUDE OF I GIVE UP, THEN GOD CANNOT HELP ME HELP OTHERS.
I CANNOT HELP SOMEONE ELSE WITH THEIR FAITH IF I DO NOT HAVE IT MYSELF. IF I DO NOT FAITH MYSELF, I AM IN REAL TROUBLE, BECAUSE I CANNOT MAKE IT WITHOUT GOD. I CANNOT MAKE IT WITHOUT LOVE. I CANNOT MAKE IT WITHOUT FAITH. I NEED ALL 3 TO STAY EQUIPPED TO DO WHAT GOD HAS CALLED ME TO DO. IF I GO ON WHAT I THINK, AND ONLY ON WHAT I THINK, THEN I AM BASICALLY SAYING, I AM IN CONTROL, GOD IS NOT, AND THAT IS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE I COULD EVER MAKE. I AM NOT ALL POWERFUL, ALL KNOWING AND ALWAYS PRESENT EVERY WHERE. I DO NOT KNOW IT ALL, GOD DOES, NOT ME. GOD IS IN CONTROL, HE IS GOD, SO IT IS BEST I STEP ASIDE AND LET HIM DO HIS JOB IN ME AND THROUGH ME SO HE CAN HELP OTHERS, I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH IT, EXCEPT TO DO HIS WILL AND HIS WILL ONLY.
LIVE FOR GOD AND OTHERS
I AM A SERVANT OF JESUS. I AM CALLED TO BE A PASTOR AND COUNSELOR. I AM SEPARATED FROM THE WORLD. I AM TO SPREAD THE GOSPEL ABOUT MY LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS. I AM NOT ASHAMED OF MY JESUS. WHEN I SHARE WHO JESUS IS, AND THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT COMES, HE OR SHE RECEIVES JESUS AS THEIR LORD AND SAVIOR EVERY TIME. MY LIFE WAS NOT SO GODLY IN THE PAST. I USED TO BE JUST AS EVIL AS THE WORLD, BUT GOOD NEWS IS THE LORD JESUS CHRIST CHANGED MY LIFE, AND NOW I AM TRYING MORE AND MORE TO LIVE FOR HIM AND RESIST THE THINGS OF SATAN, HIS DEMONS AND SINFUL THINGS OF THIS WORLD.
WHEN IT COMES TO HYPOCRISY I REALIZE I NEED TO MEAN WHAT I SAY, AND DO WHAT I SAY, BECAUSE I AM NOT JUST DOING THINGS FOR PEOPLE, I AM DOING IT FOR GOD ALSO. IT IS BLASPHEMY TOWARDS GOD IF I AM BEING A HYPOCRITE. IF I DO NOT WANT TO BE SHOWN AS A HYPOCRITE, THEN I GOT TO HAVE A CHANGED HEART, AND A CHANGED SPIRIT, BECAUSE MY WORDS DO NOT MEAN NOTHING, IF NOT BACKED UP WITH ACTIONS. I NEED TO GIVE GOD PRAISE WHEN MY WORDS TURN INTO ACTIONS, BECAUSE THEN I AM BEING GUIDED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD'S POWER, AND I REALLY BELIEVE THAT IS THE BEST WAY TO ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE GUIDED.
EVEN THOUGH I MAY BE YOUNGER OR OLDER THAN SOMEONE, IT DOES NOT MEAN THEY ARE MORE OR LESS INTELLIGENT SPIRITUALLY THAN I AM, OR THEY OR I KNOW EVERYTHING. THEY DO NOT KNOW EVERYTHING, AND I DO NOT KNOW EVERYTHING. I KNOW NOTHING WITHOUT GOD. I NEED TO BE LESS PRIDEFUL AND MORE PATIENCE WITH PEOPLE. WHEN IT COMES TO MY SALVATION I THANK GOD I WAS RAISED IN A CHURCH WHERE I WAS TAUGHT YOU ARE NOT SAVED BY YOUR WORKS, ONLY SAVED BY BELIEVING AND KNOWING JESUS AS OUR LORD AND SAVIOR, AND I HAVE KNOWN JESUS MOST OF MY LIFE, HE IS THE BEST PERSON I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE.
MEN HAVE DIED FOR MY PHYSICAL SAFETY AND FREEDOM BUT JESUS DIED AND WAS RAISED FROM THE DEAD FOR MY SPIRIT TO BE SAVED FROM HELL AND SO I COULD HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM, AND SO I COULD HAVE THE MANIFESTATIONS OF ALL MY HEALING, AND SO I COULD BE IN A BEAUTIFUL PLACE CALLED HEAVEN OR AS JESUS CALLED IT PARADISE. I AM LIKE ABRAHAM, I BELIEVE FOR OTHERS EASILY, BUT I AM ALSO LIKE PETER WHO DOUBTED CERTAIN THINGS WOULD HAPPEN AND HE DENIED THEY WOULD, AND LIKE PETER, I NEED TO WORK ON GETTING THE QUESTIONING AND DOUBTS OUT OF MY HEART SO GOD CAN MOVE ON ME AND SO HE DOES NOT HAVE TO BE AS HARSH WITH ME AS HE WAS WITH PETER,
I MEAN IF I WOULD JUST BELIEVE AND KNOW THAT GOD CAN, I WOULD BE ABLE TO CALL THINGS OUT AND THEY WOULD HAPPEN ALL THE TIME, AND THAT WOULD BE VERY PLEASING TO GOD, AND I NEVER WANT TO DISPLEASE MY HEAVENLY FATHER, WHO GAVE HIS LIFE FOR ME SO THAT I WOULD NOT GO TO HELL AND SO I CAN BE WITH HIM FOREVER IN HEAVEN. THANK YOU SO MUCH MY LORD. ROMANS 1-4 I KNOW THAT IF I WOULD JUST TOTALLY TRUST HIM AND NOT JUST WITH OTHER PEOPLE BUT ALSO WITH MYSELF I WOULD HAVE A LOT MORE PEACE WITH GOD AND NOT FEEL LIKE I DISTANT FROM GOD SOMETIMES.
I HAVE LEARNED TO BE PATIENT WITH GOD IN HARD TIMES BECAUSE I KNOW THERE IS ALWAYS A WAY OUT EVEN WHEN PEOPLE THINK THERE IS NOT, AND WHEN I HAVE FAITH KNOWING THERE IS ALWAYS A WAY OUT, I DO NOT HAVE TO FEEL ASHAMED OF MYSELF, BECAUSE I HAVE THE LOVE OF JESUS IN ME THROUGH THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND WHEN I DO NOT ACT LIKE I AM SUPPOSED TO, THAT IS WHEN I NEED TO REMEMBER THAT JESUS DIED BECAUSE OF MY SINS BECAUSE HE DIED AND ROSE FROM THE DEAD, I CAN LEAN ON THAT, AND THAT GIVES ME THE STRENGTH TO GO ON. BEFORE I KNEW JESUS I WAS DEAD IN SIN, SEPARATED FROM GOD, BUT THANK GOD, I DO NOT REMEMBER.
I AM SAVED, I KNOW JESUS AS MY LORD AND SAVIOR, AND WAS BAPTIZED, I KNOW IT IS NOT NECESSARY, BUT I DID IT TO SHOW I WILL DIE, BE BURIED AND RESURRECTED THE SAME WAY AS HE WAS, AND I WENT FROM BEING DEAD IN MY SINS, TO BE ALIVE IN RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND BECAUSE OF THAT, MY LIFE IS NEW BECAUSE OF HIM, AND I WILL LIVE WITH HIM FOREVER WHEN I DIE, AND BECAUSE JESUS IS MY LORD AND SAVIOR I TRY MY BEST TO FIGHT AGAINST THE FLESH BY DOING WHAT JESUS WANTS ME TO DO AND LOVING HIM WITH MY WHOLE HEART, SOUL, MIND AND STRENGTH.
WHEN IT COMES TO SERVING MY JESUS OR SERVING SATAN, WELL MY JESUS IS WORTH GIVING UP MY LIFE FOR, AND SATAN IS NOT WORTH THE BREATH I BREATHE, AND WITHOUT MY JESUS I WOULD NOT BE ALIVE TODAY, BECAUSE IF I DID NOT KNOW JESUS, WHAT THE DOCTORS SAID ABOUT ME, JUST MIGHT HAVE CAME TRUE, THEY SAID I WOULD HAVE DIED IN MY TEENS, BUT HERE I AM 41 YEARS OLD NOW, BECAUSE I HAVE JESUS IN MY LIFE, AND AGAIN WHEN I DIE I WILL BE LIVING WITH HIM FOREVER.
THE BIBLE SAYS I AM SUPPOSED TO OBEY THE LAWS OF THE LAND, I DO OBEY THOSE. I OBEY GOD'S LAWS TOO, IF I WAS MARRIED I WOULD RESPECT MY HUSBAND IN EVERYTHING EXCEPT SIN, UNTIL HE DIED, AND THEN AFTER THAT I WOULD NOT HAVE TO, BECAUSE HE WOULD NOT BE HERE TO TELL ME WHAT TO DO. I WOULD NEVER COMMIT ADULTRY ON HIM, BECAUSE I DO NOT BELIEVE IN CHEATING.
IF MY HUSBAND DIED, I WOULD NOT WANT TO MARRY SOMEONE ELSE BECAUSE I WOULD FEEL LIKE I WAS TOO OLD, AND BESIDES THAT, I NEED TO REMEMBER THAT I AM MARRIED TO GOD FIRST, AND BECAUSE OF THAT, I SHOULD KNOW HOW TO TREAT GOD AND MY HUSBAND THE SAME WAY, AND IF GOD IS NOT IN THE MIDDLE OF IT, THEN THE MARRIAGE IS DEAD ALREADY.
IF WE DO NOT DO THINGS GOD'S WAY, THEN THE LAW WOULD NOT HELP US ANYWAY, BECAUSE IT IS OF THIS WORLD, NOT OF GOD'S WORLD, AND IF YOU DO NOT DO WHAT GOD WANTS, THEN YOU WILL END UP DOING COMPLETELY OPPOSITE OF WHAT GOD WANTS YOU TO DO ALL THE TIME, AND YOU WILL NEVER LIVE BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD. ROMANS 5-7.
SINCE I HAVE BECOME A CHRISTIAN I AM BEGINNING TO UNDERSTAND THAT EVEN WHEN I SIN I AM NOT CONDEMNED, AND EVEN IF I AM NOT CONDEMNED, I WILL STILL BE DISCIPLINED, AND WHEN I DO GET DISCIPLINED, IT HELPS ME TO LIVE MORE IN THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND LESS LIKELY WANT TO SIN, AND NOT ONLY DOES IT STOP ME FROM SINNING, BUT IT HELPS ME LIVE LONGER, BECAUSE I AM BEING PLEASING TO GOD AND HE WANTS TO USE ME WHILE I AM ON THIS EARTH.
IF I WAS NOT PLEASING TO HIM, HE WOULD TAKE ME OUT AND HE WOULD SEND ME TO HELL IF I WAS NOT SAVED, BUT I AM SAVED, SO I DO MY BEST TO KILL THE SIN IN MY LIFE, SO THE SPIRIT OF LIFE CAN CONTINUE LIVING IN ME, AND WHEN THE TIME COMES, AND THE FLESH DIES, MY GOD WILL RAISE IT UP AGAIN DURING THE RAPTURE, AND IF I LET THE SPIRIT OF LIFE RULE MY LIFE, THEN I AM GOD'S CHILD.
SINCE I AM HIS CHILD, I HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR, EVEN THOUGH SOMETIMES I ALLOW MYSELF TO BECOME FEARFUL, BUT WHEN THE SPIRIT OF GOD TELLS ME WHAT TO SAY TO SATAN, THEN I AM NOT SO FEARFUL, BECAUSE GOD KNOWS WHAT I AM THINKING, AND HE KNOWS MY HEART, SO HE IS ABLE TO TELL ME WHAT TO SAY, AND I KNOW BECAUSE HE TELLS ME WHAT TO SAY, THEN THINGS WILL WORK OUT FOR ME, ESPECIALLY SINCE I KNOW I AM CALLED BY HIM TO DO HIS WILL, AND BECAUSE I AM CALLED, GOD GIVES ME ALL THE THINGS THAT I NEED FOR HIM TO USE, AND THE ONLY WAY IT CAN NOT WORK IS IF I STOP DOING IT.
I DID NOT START MY CALLING, BECAUSE I FELT CALLED, I STARTED IT, BECAUSE I BEGAN TO SEE THAT GOD GAVE ME THAT CALLING BY ME BEING ABLE TO SPEAK WITH PEOPLE AND THEM SAYING ALL THE TIME THAT THEY FELT BETTER AFTER SPEAKING WITH ME, AND I DO NOT DO MY CALLING BY MYSELF, BECAUSE THE HOLY SPIRIT IS WITH ME ALL THE TIME AS I PRACTICE MY CALLING, AND THERE HAS BEEN SEVERAL SAVED THROUGH THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AS I HAVE USE MY CALLING, AND THROUGH THE COUNSELING, SATAN HAS BEEN AND IS DEFEATED. SINCE I KNOW THAT SATAN IS DEFEATED.
I NEED TO REALIZE THAT JESUS HAS ALL POWER OVER SATAN WHICH MEANS JESUS IS BLESSED FOREVER, AND WHEN I ACCEPT THAT THEN I AM GOD'S CHILD, BECAUSE I ACCEPT HIM AS LORD AND SAVIOR OF MY LIFE, AND THE LORD CHOSE ME, NOT BECAUSE OF WHAT I DID BUT BECAUSE OF WHAT HE DID.
I AM CALLED HIS COUNSELOR, AND WHEN HE CHOSE ME AS COUNSELOR, I WAS NOT EXACTLY LIVING A PERFECT LIFE, BUT HE HAS MERCY ON ME AND HE KNEW WHAT WAS TRULY DOWN DEEP IN MY HEART AND SPIRIT, AND HE KNEW I WOULD SPREAD HIS GOSPEL WHEREVER I WENT, AND WHEREVER I GO PEOPLE ASK ME WHY I AM NOT SO DOWN AND OUT ABOUT BEING IN A WHEELCHAIR, I JUST TELL THEM, BECAUSE I HAVE JESUS AND I WANT TO GO AND TELL PEOPLE ABOUT HIM, SO I DO NOT HAVE TIME TO FEEL SORRY FOR MYSELF AND WONDER WHY GOD MADE ME THE WAY HE DID, I DO NOT CARE ABOUT THAT AS MUCH AS I CARE ABOUT SEEING SOULS GET SAVED.
IF I CAN SACRIFICE MY HEALING ON THIS EARTH FOR SOMEONE'S SOUL, TO ME THAT IS WORTH MORE THAN ANYTHING IN THE WORLD TO ME, I MEAN YES I WANT TO WALK, BUT I WANT WHAT GOD WANTS THE MOST AND I NEED TO OBEY HIM AND DO HIS WILL, AND LOVE HIM WITH EVERYTHING I HAVE, AND REACH OUT TO AS MANY HURTING AND UNSAVED PEOPLE AS I CAN, BECAUSE WHEN PEOPLE GET SAVED THEY GO FROM BEING SATAN'S CHILD TO BEING GOD'S CHILD, AND THAT REALLY THRILLS ME TO NO END.
WHEN JESUS COMES BACK SATAN WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TOUCH ANY OF GOD'S CHILDREN EVER AGAIN, BECAUSE THE SECOND HE COMES BACK AND HIS CHILDREN ARE TAKEN OUT OF THIS WORLD, THAT IS WHEN SATAN WILL MEET HIS DOOM, AND IT WILL BE ALL OVER, AND THEN I AND OTHERS GET TO FIGHT WITH JESUS, BUT THE ONES WHO THOUGHT THEIR WORKS WOULD SAVE THEM ARE GOING TO BE SENT TO THE LAKE OF FIRE, BUT THE ONES WHO BELIEVED IN JESUS AND ARE NOT ASHAMED WILL GO HEAVEN TO BE WITH JESUS.
I HAVE LEARNED YOU CANNOT OVERRIDE GOD'S DECISIONS, AND SO IF YOU ARE A KIDNAPPER, AND YOU HAVE A CHRISTIAN AS A HOSTAGE, GOD WILL NOT PUT UP WITH THAT TOO LONG, HE WILL FIND A WAY TO SET THAT CHILD OF GOD FREE FROM YOUR GRIP, HE WILL FIND WAYS TO MAKE YOU SO SCARED AND NERVOUS YOU WILL HAVE NO CHOICE, BUT TO LET THEM GO AND SURRENDER YOUR LIFE TO GOD AND THE POLICE, AND ALSO IF A KIDNAPPER, KIDNAPS SOMEONE WHO IS NOT A CHRISTIAN, THEN GOD WILL LET THEM STAY WHERE THEY ARE BECAUSE THEY CHOSE TO FOLLOW THE WORLD AND HE WILL ALLOW REAL BAD THINGS TO HAPPEN TO THEM AND MAYBE DIE, BECAUSE THEY CHOSE TO LIVE AS THE WORLD AND NOT FOR JESUS. ROMANS 8-10 WHEN IT COMES TO GOD'S MERCY AND PROTECTION I WILL NOT BE DESTROYED.
IT IS NOT BECAUSE OF ANYTHING I DID, BUT WHAT JESUS DID FOR ME, AND IF THE UNSAVED WOULD OPEN THEIR HEARTS, THEY WOULD SEE WHAT JESUS CAN DO FOR THEM, AND IF I CHOOSE TO LIVE GODLY I AM GOING TO LIVE GODLY, AND IF THEY DID THE SAME THING, THEIR LIFE WOULD SEEM MUCH BETTER OFF EVEN IF THEY MAY END UP GOING THROUGH SOME TRIALS HERE AND THERE, AND I HAVE BEEN THERE, SO I KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TRYING TO LEARN THE WAYS OF GOD, AND I DO NOT WANT ANYONE TO ACT LIKE IT IS ALL RIGHT IF THEY SEE ME DOING SOMETHING WRONG, NO, I WANT THEM TO CONFRONT ME ON IT, AND TELL ME WHAT TO DO TO STOP IT, SO I CAN STOP LIVING FOR SATAN AND LIVE FOR JESUS, AND THEN IF I DID NOT LISTEN.
I WOULD EXPECT THEM TO SAY ALRIGHT, I AM GOING TO GIVE YOU TO GOD SINCE YOU WILL NOT LISTEN TO ME, BECAUSE NOT ONLY WOULD I BE NOT LISTENING, BUT I WOULD BE LIVING IN UNBELIEF, BY NOT UNDERSTANDING OR BEING BLINDED TO THE WRONG THINGS THAT I AM DOING, CHOOSING TO BE PRIDEFUL ABOUT IT BY DENYING THAT I AM DOING ANY WRONG.
IF I LISTEN TO THE PERSON WHO IS GIVING ME THIS WARNING BY DOING THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT I BEEN DOING, THEN NOT ONLY WILL THAT PERSON SOMETIMES BE WILLING TO HAVE ME IN THEIR LIFE BUT I WILL ALSO NOT FEEL SO DISTANT FROM GOD, AND GOD WILL TAKE EVERYTHING THAT IS NOT OF HIM OUT OF ME, AND WHEN HE CALLED ME INTO THE MINISTRY I HAD A JOB TO DO, BUT I RAN AWAY FOR A WHILE, THEN CAME BACK, BECAUSE I HAVE THE GIFT OF GOD INSIDE ME AND I HAVE CALLING AND I HAVE A PROMISE FROM GOD THAT HE WILL NEVER TAKE THEM FROM ME, SO I DO MY BEST TO USE THOSE GIFTS AND CALLING THE BEST WAY I CAN.
SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE THE RICHEST PERSON IN THE WORLD WHEN GOD USES ME, BECAUSE THE WAY HE USES ME, SOMETIMES CATCHES ME OFFGUARD, AND OTHER TIMES, HE TELLS ME EXACTLY WHAT IS GOING ON, AND THE ONLY REASON I AM A COUNSELOR IS, BECAUSE I WORK THROUGH HIS HOLY SPIRIT, NO OTHER WAY, BECAUSE WHEN I TRY TO DO IT THE OTHER WAY, I MESS UP BAD, AND WHEN I LET THE HOLY SPIRIT HAVE THE SITUATION, THEN NOTHING BAD HAPPENS, AND WE NEED TO TURN IT OVER TO HIM A LOT MORE OFTEN THEN WE DO, SO THAT WE DO NOT EVER GET OURSELVES IN TROUBLE, BECAUSE IT IS HIM THAT KNOWS WHAT TO SAY AND DO AT ALL TIME.
WE DON'T ALWAYS KNOW WHAT TO SAY OR DO, AND ONE OF THE WAYS I DID THAT IS I SACRIFICED MY CHANCE TO BE IN HEAVEN ONCE SO THAT I COULD BE HERE ON THE EARTH TO TELL PEOPLE ABOUT JESUS, AND HOW THEIR MIND AND BODY CHANGE ONCE THEY GET THERE, BECAUSE THE MIND BECOMES TOTALLY CLEAR ON WHAT GOD TELLS IT AND THE BODY IS TOTALLY WHOLE AND ACCEPTABLE AND PERFECT, AND WHILE WE ARE THERE, THERE IS NO DOUBT WHAT GOD'S WILL IS FOR OUR LIVES, AND IF WE HAVE FAITH, WE DO NOT EVEN HAVE TO BE THERE TO HAVE HEAVEN COME DOWN AND THE POWER OF GOD COME DOWN AND FILL US UP, PLUS WHEN YOU ARE SHOWING LOVE TO ANOTHER PERSON, THAT IS ONE WAY WE CAN BRING DOWN HEAVEN TO US.
ANOTHER WAY WE CAN IS THROUGH PRAYER AND WORSHIP TO GOD THROUGH SINGING, AND WE CAN BRING HEAVEN TO OTHERS JUST BY BEING NICE TO THEM, ESPECIALLY OUR ENEMIES, BECAUSE IF WE ARE NICE TO OUR ENEMIES, THEY MAY FEEL LESS LIKELY TO WANT TO HURT US, AND PLUS MAYBE BECOME OUR FRIEND ONE DAY ONCE THEY GET TO KNOW JESUS, AND OTHER WAY WE BRING HEAVEN DOWN IS IF WE ARE HAPPY FOR THOSE WHO HAVE GOOD THINGS HAPPEN TO THEM OR WE CRY WITH THEM WHEN THEY ARE SAD, BECAUSE SOMETIMES WHEN THEY SEE IT HURTS US AS MUCH AS IT HURTS THEM, SOMETIMES IT HELPS THEM UNDERSTAND THAT THINGS ARE NOT SO BAD AS THEY SEEM.
THE BEST WAY THEY CAN SEE IT IS IF YOU ARE TRULY SINCERE, AND IF WE DO OUR BEST TO LIVE IN PEACE WITH ONE ANOTHER, WHATEVER A PERSON DOES AGAINST US, GOD WILL MAKE THEM PAY, SO WE DO NOT HAVE TO DO ANYTHING BAD TO THEM, BECAUSE IF WE JUST LOVE OUR ENEMIES BY DOING GOOD TO THEM, THEN THE BIBLE SAYS IT IS LIKE PUTTING HOT COALS ON THEIR HEAD, AND THAT MEANS YOU ARE DEFEATING SATAN BY USING GOD'S POWER AND LOVE TO WIN THEIR SOUL FOR JESUS. ROMANS 11-12
MY LIFE IS IN GOD'S HANDS AND SO IF I HAVE ANY POWER IN ME AT ALL IT IS FROM GOD NOT FROM ME AND WHATEVER HE WANTS ME TO DO I AM GOING TO DO IT AND NO ONE HAS TO LIKE IT, BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT TO FACE GOD'S ANGER AND I LOVE HIM DEARLY AND I WANT TO PLEASE HIM, AND I KNOW GOD WANTS ME TO RESPECT AND HONOR CERTAIN PEOPLE, SO I DO MY BEST TO DO THAT BY BEING OBEDIENT TO AUTHORITY AND BY SHOWING THEM RESPECT BY RECOGNIZING I AM NOT ANY BETTER THAN THEY ARE.
I ALSO OBEY WHAT GOD SAYS BECAUSE I LOVE HIM, NOT TO KEEP MY SALVATION, AND ALSO WHEN IT COMES TO LOVING SOMEONE, WE DO NOT THINK UP BAD THINGS TO DO TO THEM JUST BECAUSE WE DO NOT LIKE THEM, AND IF YOU WANT PEOPLE TO BELIEVE YOU ARE SAVED THEN YOU NEED TO SHOW LOVE TO THEM AND NOTHING ELSE, AND BY DOING THAT, THEY JUST MIGHT GET SAVED TOO, AND THE ONE THING WE NEED TO NEVER FORGET IS THAT WE ARE A LIGHT IN THE WORLD, AND WE NEED TO LET THAT LIGHT SHINE, BY SHARING JESUS, AND WE NEED TO DO OUR BEST TO LIVE LIKE JESUS DID, BECAUSE JESUS ALLOWED PEOPLE TO ABUSE HIM AND EVENTUALLY HIS FLESH DIED PHYSICALLY, BUT HE ALSO KILLED HIS FLESH SPIRITUALLY BY NOT GIVING IN TO THIS WORLD'S TEMPTATIONS, THEREFORE HE NEVER SINNED.
I AM LEARNING TO NOT TO ARGUE WITH PEOPLE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE THE SAME WAY I DO, BUT I DO MY BEST TO SHOW THEM IN SCRIPTURE THAT WHAT THEY BELIEVE IS NOT RIGHT AND GOD DOES THE REST AND IF THEY SEE THE TRUTH THEY ACCEPT JESUS AS LORD AND SAVIOR, THEN JESUS ENDS UP BEING MINE AND THEIR LORD AND SAVIOR, AND WHEN WE BOTH DIE, OR WHEN JESUS COMES BACK, WE WILL BOTH GIVE AN ACCOUNT OF THE THINGS WE DID WHILE WE WAS ON THE EARTH, AND BECAUSE OF THAT, WE NEED TO WATCH WHAT WE DO AND SAY TO OTHERS. WHEN IT COMES TO HOW WE BELIEVE, SOME PEOPLE BELIEVE SOMETHING IS WRONG AND OTHERS THINK IT IS NOT WRONG, SO WE HAVE TO JUST DO WHAT WE BELIEVE IS RIGHT AND STAY AWAY FROM THINGS WE BELIEVE IS WRONG.
WHEN YOU TELL SOMEONE ABOUT JESUS DO NOT LET SOMEONE ELSE SAY SOMETHING BAD ABOUT IT, BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING BAD ABOUT IT, THERE IS ONLY RIGHTEOUSNESS, PEACE, AND JOY IN THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND THOSE WHO ACCEPT JESUS AND SERVE HIM ARE ACCEPTABLE TO GOD, AND IF WE ACCEPT THE GOOD THINGS OF GOD THEN WE CAN HELP LIFT EACH OTHER UP, NOT TEAR EACH OTHER DOWN.
IF YOU TRY TO GIVE TOO MUCH ADVICE TOO SOON, YOU MIGHT CAUSE THAT OTHER PERSON TO GET EVEN MORE UPSET AND LEAD THEM AWAY FROM JESUS INSTEAD OF TOWARDS HIM, AND WE DO NOT NEED TO BRING CONDEMNATION ON THEM EITHER, BECAUSE THAT WILL DEFINITELY DRIVE THEM AWAY, AND MAKE THEM FEEL A LOT WORSE, SO BY NOT CONDEMNING THEM, THEN THEY START TO REALIZE THEY CAN CHANGE, IT IS NEVER TOO LATE, BUT IT WOULD BE TOO LATE IF THEY CHOSE TO HAVE DOUBT INSTEAD OF FAITH IN JESUS. ROMANS 13-14
MATURE CHRISTIANS NEED TO HELP THE BABY CHRISTIANS, AND NOT TO MAKE OURSELVES FEEL GOOD, BUT TO PLEASE GOD. WE NEED TO LEARN HOW TO BE GOOD TO PEOPLE SO THEIR SPIRIT CAN BE LIFTED UP AND GET ALONG WITH EACH OTHER SO GOD CAN BE POWERFUL BETWEEN THE TWO OF THEM. JESUS ACCEPTED WHO WE WERE BEFORE WE KNEW HIM AND HE FORGAVE US, AND WE NEED TO BE THAT WAY, WE NEED TO DECIDE TO FORGIVE PEOPLE BEFORE THEY EVEN HURT US.
IF PEOPLE ARE WILLING, CORRECT THEM IN LOVE, AND IF THEY ACCEPT IT AND ARE WILLING TO CHANGE THEN YOU KNOW THE HOLY SPIRIT IS WORKING IN THEIR LIVES, AND THEN THEY ALSO GO AND TELL THE TRUTH TO OTHERS. WHEN WE MEET SOMEONE FACE TO FACE WE NEED TO GREET EACH OTHER AND NOT BE RUDE. WHEN IT COMES TO THE WAY WE BELIEVE WE NEED TO STAY AWAY FROM FALSE TEACHING AND STAY AWAY FROM THE PEOPLE WHO TEACH IT BECAUSE IF WE BE FRIENDS WITH SOMEONE WHO BELIEVES SOMETHING FALSE WE ARE SAYING THAT WHAT THEY BELIEVE IS ALL RIGHT WHEN IT IS NOT AT ALL, AND NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THEY DO NOT KNOW THE REAL JESUS AND WILL TRY TO CONFUSE YOU, SO STAY AWAY SO THAT GOD CAN HELP YOU DEFEAT SATAN'S ATTACKS, SO YOU HAVE THE VICTORY. ROMANS 15-16
SICK WAYS TO KILL A BABY
I AM GOING TELL YOU ABOUT SOMETHING I FEEL VERY STRONG ABOUT. I BELIEVE ABORTION IS WRONG, BECAUSE WHETHER THE BABY IS AT FULL TERM OR STARTING OUT, IT IS A HUMAN BEING. HE OR SHE IS CALLED A BABY, EVEN THOUGH DOCTORS CALL IT A FETUS. THE BABY IS ALIVE, HE OR SHE DESERVES A CHANCE TO LIVE. ALL HUMAN BEINGS DESERVE A CHANCE TO LIVE EVEN IF THEY ARE BORN WITHOUT ARMS OR LEGS, OR CANNOT SPEAK, OR IN A COMA, HELPLESS, UNAWARE, UNMOVING, AND IT IS WRONG TO MURDER PERIOD.
HERE IS THE DEFINITION OF AN ABORTION, TERMINATION OF A PREGNANCY. HERE IS WAYS ABORTIONS IS DONE. BABY IS DELIVERED FEET FIRST. HEAD IS LEFT INSIDE BIRTH CANAL. A SHARP INSTRUMENT IS USED TO PUNCTURE REAR OF THE SKULL AT THE BASE AND THE BRAINS ARE SUCKED OUT. ONCE DEAD, THE BABY IS FULLY DELIVERED. ABORTIVE PROCEDURE WHERE THE ABORTIONIST INSERTS A CURVED KNIFE INTO THE PLACENTA AND CUTS THE BABY UP INTO PIECES BEFORE IT IS SUCTIONED OUT.
DONE IN THE FIRST TRIMESTER. AN ABORTIVE PROCEDURE WHERE AN ABORTIONIST INSERTS A PLIERS-LIKE INSTRUMENT INTO THE UTERUS. THE ABORTIONIST THEN GRABS WHATEVER PART OF THE BABY IT COMES IN CONTACT WITH. THEN, BY TWISTING AND PULLING, BABY IS DISMEMBERED, KILLED, PULLED FROM THE WOMB. A PILL TAKEN AFTER CONCEPTION THAT STOPS THE ABSORPTION OF PROGESTERONE, A HORMONE NECESSARY FOR SUSTAINING PREGNANCY. TAKEN WITH MISOPROSTOL, IT CAUSES THE UTERUS TO CONTRACT AND EJECT THE NEWLY CONCEIVED BABY.
AN ABORTIVE METHOD WHERE ALL THE BABY IS DELIVERED EXCEPT THE HEAD. WITH ITS BODY OUTSIDE OF THE VAGINAL CANAL, THE DOCTOR THEN USES A SHARP INSTRUMENT TO PIERCE THE BACK OF THE SKULL OF THE BABY AND SCRAMBLE THE BRAINS, KILLING IT. THEN THE BABY IS FULLY DELIVERED. AN ABORTIVE METHOD OF REDUCING THE NUMBER OF BABIES IN THE WOMB (TWINS, TRIPLETS, ETC.) BY INJECTING A POISON INTO THE HEART OF ONE OR MORE OF THE BABIES WHILE STILL IN THE WOMB.
AN ABORTIVE METHOD WHERE A HIGHLY CONCENTRATED SALT SOLUTION IS INJECTED INTO THE PLACENTA. THE BABY TAKES THE SALT INTO THE LUNGS AS WELL AS SWALLOWING IT. AFTER MORE THAN AN HOUR, THE BABY DIES AND THE MOTHER DELIVERS THE BODY A DAY OR TWO LATER.
IF YOU WANT TO KILL A BABY LIKE THIS, THEN I WOULD SAY YOU ARE COMPLETELY HEARTLESS AND HAVE NO RESPECT FOR A HUMAN BEINGS LIFE, WHETHER IT IS IN THE WOMB OR OUT, AND IF I COULD MAKE IT POSSIBLE I WOULD MAKE ABORTION ILLEGAL, AND DESTROY ALL THE ABORTION CLINICS IN THE WORLD.
I AM VERY THANKFUL MY OWN MOTHER, EVEN THOUGH SHE WAS ONLY 17 YEARS OLD, WHEN I WAS BORN, SHE DID NOT GET AN ABORTION WHEN SHE FOUND OUT THAT I HAD SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY BACK AND LEGS, AND SHE RAISED ME, EVEN THOUGH I DID HAVE TO STAY WITH MY GRANDMA FOR A YEAR AND A HALF WHEN I WAS 5 YEARS OLD, BECAUSE I HAD SOME PHYSICAL PROBLEMS SHE WAS UNABLE TO DEAL WITH EMOTIONALLY, BUT SHE TOOK ME BACK WHEN I WAS 6 AND A HALF. I HAVE LIVED WITH HER EVER SINCE. I HAVE NEVER HAD THE DESIRE TO LIVE WITH MY GRANDMA AGAIN.
GOD'S WORD IS TRUSTWORTHY
THE OLD TESTAMENT WRITINGS WERE PASSED DOWN FROM ONE GENERATION TO ANOTHER BY USING THE SKIN OF CLEAN ANIMALS AS MATERIAL FOR SCROLLS. THE ANCIENT HEBREW MANUSCRIPTS WOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN WRITTEN ON AN UNCLEAN ANIMAL'S SKIN, SUCH AS A PIG. THE ORIGINAL THIRTY-NINE BOOKS OF THE OLD TESTAMENT WERE COMPLETED BEFORE CHRIST. THE ORIGINAL HEBREW MANUSCRIPTS WERE COMPLETED AND COMPILED AROUND 500 BC.
IN THE FIRST CENTURY, THE NEW TESTAMENT WAS FIRST RECORDED IN THE GREEK LANGUAGE ON PAPYRUS. THE NEW TESTAMENT WAS COMPLETED IN THE FIRST CENTURY AD AND WAS WRITTEN IN GREEK AND PRESERVED ON PAPYRUS, A MATERIAL MADE FROM A REED LIKE PLANT. THESE MANUSCRIPTS WERE TIED TOGETHER MUCH LIKE THE BOOKS OF TODAY, AS OPPOSED TO THE OLD TESTAMENT PRESERVED IN A SCROLL. JOHN WYCLIFFE WAS THE FIRST PERSON TO TRANSLATE THE BIBLE INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. THE FIRST ENGLISH MANUSCRIPTS WERE PRODUCED IN THE 1380'S BY JOHN WYCLIFFE,
AN OXFORD PROFESSOR AND THEOLOGIAN WHO TRANSLATED THE SCRIPTURES BY HAND. WYCLIFFE TRANSLATED THE ENGLISH VERSION OF THE BIBLE FROM THE LATIN VULGATE. WYCLIFFE'S ONLY AVAILABLE SCRIPTURE WAS THE LATIN VULGATE, AND HE TRANSLATED DOZENS OF COPIES INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. INFURIATING THE POPE OF THAT TIME. FORTY FOUR YEARS AFTER HIS DEATH, THE POPE ORDERED WYCLIFFE'S BONES TO BE DUG UP AND SCATTERED IN A RIVER. THE FIRST BIBLE TO BE PRINTED WAS A LATIN TRANSLATION IN GERMANY.
IN 1455 AD, JOHANN GUTENBERG INVENTED THE PRINTING PRESS AND PRODUCED THE FIRST PRINTED COPY OF THE BIBLE IN A LATIN LANGUAGE IN MAINZ, GERMANY. THE LATIN VULGATE TRANSLATION HAD BECOME CORRUPT OVER THE YEARS. AN OXFORD PROFESSOR NAMED THOMAS LINACRE LEARNED GREEK AND STUDIED THE NEW TESTAMENT IN THE ORIGINAL GREEK LANGUAGE, DETERMINING THAT THE LATIN VULGATE NO LONGER PRESERVED THE TRUE GOSPEL. AT THIS TIME THE ROMAN CHURCH STILL THREATENED TO PERSECUTE ANYONE READING SCRIPTURE IN ANY LANGUAGE OTHER THAN LATIN. THE FIRST GREEK TO ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF THE BIBLE WAS ACCOMPLISHED BY AN OXFORD PROFESSOR.
IN 1496, JOHN COLET, AN OXFORD PROFESSOR, WAS THE FIRST MAN TO TRANSLATE THE NEW TESTAMENT FROM THE ORIGINAL GREEK INTO ENGLISH FOR HIS STUDENTS. A NEW AND NON-CORRUPT LATIN TRANSLATION OF THE BIBLE WAS PRODUCED IN 1516. THE SCHOLAR ERASMUS AND A PRINTER NAMED JOHN FROBEN PUBLISHED THE FIRST GREEK-LATIN PARALLEL NEW TESTAMENT USING LATIN THAT WAS NOT PART OF THE CORRUPT VULGATE TRANSLATION. ERASMUS BELIEVED THAT THE LATIN VULGATE WAS INACCURATE AND SUPPORTED THE NEED TO TRANSLATE THE NEW TESTAMENT FROM THE ORIGINAL GREEK. MARTIN LUTHER NAILED A LETTER OF CONTENTION ON A ROMAN CHURCH DOOR AND PUBLISHED THE NEW TESTAMENT INTO THE GERMAN LANGUAGE.
MARTIN LUTHER TRANSLATED THE NEW TESTAMENT INTO GERMAN USING THE GREEK-LATIN PARALLEL NEW TESTAMENT IN 1516 WHICH WAS PUBLISHED IN 1522, AFTER HE NAILED HIS THESES OF CONTENTION TO THE WITTENBERG CHURCH DOOR, DECLARING HIS INTOLERANCE FOR THE ROMAN CHURCH'S CORRUPTION. WILLIAM TYNDALE WAS THE FIRST MAN TO PRINT THE NEW TESTAMENT INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. HEAD OF THE REFORMATION MOVEMENT, TYNDALE PRINTED THE NEW TESTAMENT IN 1526 WITH THE HELP OF MARTIN LUTHER. THE GENEVA BIBLE WAS PRINTED IN 1560 AD AND WAS THE FIRST TO USE CHAPTERS AND NUMBERED VERSES.
THE GENEVA BIBLE WAS PRINTED AS A RESULT OF REFORMER EXILED REFUGEES WHO GATHERED UNDER THE PROTECTION OF THE GENEVA CHURCH IN SWITZERLAND. THE GENEVA BIBLE HAD MORE INFLUENCE ON THE KING JAMES BIBLE THAN ANY OTHER FORMER TRANSLATION. THE GENEVA BIBLE RETAINED UP TO NINETY PERCENT OF TYNDALE'S ORIGINAL VERSION AND STUDIES PROVE IT TO BE THE LARGEST INFLUENCE ON THE KING JAMES EDITION. THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH PRINTED THEIR OWN ENGLISH VERSION OF THE BIBLE IN 1582. IN DEFEAT OF USING ONLY THE VULGATE LATIN BIBLE AS THE AUTHORITATIVE BIBLE,
THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH PRODUCED THEIR OWN OFFICIAL ROMAN CATHOLIC ENGLISH TRANSLATION USING THE LATIN VULGATE, WHICH HAD BEEN PROVEN TO BE CORRUPT 75 YEARS EARLIER. THE OFFICIAL ROMAN CATHOLIC ENGLISH TRANSLATION WAS KNOWN AS THE RHEIMS NEW TESTAMENT. THE KING JAMES BIBLE IS REFERRED TO AS THE TRANSLATION TO END ALL TRANSLATIONS.
THE KING JAMES TRANSLATION WAS THE RESULT OF THE WORK OF FIFTY DIFFERENT SCHOLARS WHO USED THE TYNDALE TRANSLATION, THE GREAT BIBLE, THE GENEVA BIBLE, AND OTHER PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED TRANSLATIONS, INCLUDING THE ORIGINAL GREEK AND HEBREW, TO PRODUCE AN EXCELLENT TRANSLATION UNDER THE REIGN OF KING JAMES I OF ENGLAND. THE KING JAMES VERSION IS THE MOST PRINTED BOOK IN WORLD HISTORY. THE KING JAMES VERSION HAS HAD MORE THAN ONE BILLION COPIES IN PRINT. SO YOU CAN SEE FROM ALL THIS INFORMATION THAT THE BIBLE IS TRUSTWORTHY.
DEFEND CHRISTIAN DOCTRINE IN TRUTH
WE NEED TO DEFEND THE TRUTH OF CHRISTIAN DOCTRINES, BECAUSE WE NEED TO LEARN WHAT IS FALSE, SO WE DO NOT END UP IN SOME KIND OF CULT, OR ANY FALSE DOCTRINE WHERE SATAN'S LIES ARE, BECAUSE WE WILL END UP IN HELL FOR NOT LISTENING TO REAL TRUTH OF GOD'S LIVING AND WRITTEN WORD. WE CAN DEFEND WOMEN AS PASTORS BY TELLING PEOPLE, THEY CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHICH STRENGTHENS THEM. (PHILIPPIANS 4 : 13) FOR WITH GOD NOTHING SHALL BE IMPOSSIBLE (LUKE 1 : 37).
JESUS SAID, THE THINGS WHICH ARE IMPOSSIBLE WITH MEN ARE POSSIBLE WITH GOD. (LUKE 18 : 27). WE CAN HELP THEM STOP LISTENING TO SATAN OR HIS DEMONS WHEN THEY LIE TO THEM, AND THEY TELL THEM THAT THEY CANNOT DO THIS OR THAT, BECAUSE IT IS LIES FROM HELL, IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN AND IT ALWAYS WILL BE FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIFE FOREVER. WE CAN DEFEND OUR BELIEF IN THE GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WHEN PEOPLE SAY THE GIFTS ARE NOT FOR TODAY BY TELLING THEM ALL THE PHYSICAL HEALING THAT HAVE HAPPENED IN OUR LIFE, WE CAN SHOW THEM SCARS FROM WHERE THE HEALING HAPPENED IN OUR LIFE.
WHEN THE DOCTORS TOLD US WE WOULD NOT LIVE PAST A CERTAIN AGE AND WE END UP LIVING A LOT LONGER. WE HAVE BELIEVED IN HEALING ALL OUR LIFE AND WE WILL ALWAYS BELIEVE IN HEALING UNTIL THE DAY WE DIE, ACCORDING TO THE DOCTORS WE SHOULD BE DEAD. WE CAN DEFEND WHAT WE BELIEVE WHEN SOMEONE SAYS THAT GOD DOES NOT LOVE THEM AND WE CAN TURN AROUND AND TELL THEM YES HE DOES AND TELL THEM, FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE (JOHN 3 : 16).
WE CAN ALSO TELL THEM, BUT EVEN THE VERY HAIRS OF YOUR HEAD ARE ALL NUMBERED. FEAR NOT THEREFORE: YE ARE OF MORE VALUE THAN MANY SPARROWS. (LUKE 12 : 7) WE CAN ALSO SAY, BUT GOD COMMENDS HIS LOVE TOWARD US, IN THAT, WHILE WE WERE YET SINNERS, CHRIST DIED FOR US (ROMANS 5 : 8). WHEN PEOPLE TELL US SATAN LOVES THEM AND WE CAN SAY NO HE DOES NOT, BECAUSE THE BIBLE SAYS, THE THIEF COMES NOT, BUT FOR TO STEAL, AND TO KILL, AND TO DESTROY, BUT JESUS COME SO THEY WOULD HAVE LIFE, AND HAVE IT TO THE FULLEST. (JOHN 10 : 10)
THESE ARE SOME WAYS WE DEFEND WHAT WE BELIEVE AND WHY WE BELIEVE IT. WE SHOW OTHERS HOW TO DO IT. WE DEFEND WHAT WE BELIEVE, AND WHY WE BELIEVE IT, BECAUSE OUR GOAL, AND WHAT EVERY BORN AGAIN BELIEVER'S GOAL IS TO SNATCH AWAY FROM SATAN EVERY SOUL AS WE CAN AND HELP THEM GIVE THEIR LIVES OVER TO JESUS. WE NEED TO TAKE THE TIME TO STUDY, SO WE CAN GIVE ANSWER TO PEOPLE WHEN THEY ASK US QUESTIONS. WE CANNOT DEFEND OUR FAITH IF WE DO NOT KNOW GOD'S WORD, AND WE NEED TO PRAY FOR GOD TO OPEN MINDS TO TRUTH OF HIS WORD. WE NEED TO ASK THE HOLY SPIRIT TO TELL US WHAT WE ARE TO SAY.
WE NEED TO ASK THE HOLY SPIRIT TO BRING UNDERSTANDING WHAT IS BEING SAID. IF WE DO NOT PRAY BEFORE WE BEGIN TO DEFEND GOD'S WORD THEN WE ARE TRYING TO DO IT BY OURSELVES WITHOUT THE HOLY SPIRIT HELP AND THAT LEADS US INTO THE SIN CALLED PRIDE AND THAT WILL ONLY DESTROY OUR LIFE. APOLOGETICS MUST BE DONE IN GENTLENESS AND LOVE OR MEEKNESS AND FEAR AND IN GOD'S WORD THE WORD FEAR MEANS RESPECT. THE PURPOSE FOR DEFENDING WHAT WE BELIEVE AND WHY WE BELIEVE IT IS TO HELP PEOPLE KNOW WHAT THEY BELIEVE AND WHY THEY BELIEVE IT SO THEY WILL NOT BELIEVE SOMETHING THAT IS FALSE OR GET INTO SOME KIND OF CULT WHERE SATAN CAN CONTROL AND MANIPULATE THE PERSON WHO IS IN THE CULT, AND GOD'S WORD CAN BE TRUSTED, AND IF THE WORD OF GOD CANNOT BE TRUSTED THEN WE HAVE NOTHING TO STAND ON AND IF WE HAVE NOTHING TO STAND ON THEN WE ARE JUST GOING TO LIVE IN CONFUSION THE REST OF OUR LIFE AND ONCE WE ARE DEAD WE END UP IN HELL.
IN ORDER FOR US TO STAND ON THE BIBLE, WE NEED TO KEEP AN OPEN MIND TO WHAT THE BIBLE IS TELLING US. WHEN WE STUDY THE WHOLE BIBLE, WE NEED TO KEEP STUDYING IT, SO THE HOLY SPIRIT CAN SPEAK TO US TO HELP US CHANGE THINGS WE CONSIDER SIN. WE NEED TO ALLOW GOD TO TAKE IT OUT OF OUR LIFE. WE NEED TO SHOW HOW WE CAN TRUST WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS, SO PEOPLE CAN SEE WHO JESUS IS, BELIEVE IN HIS DEATH, BURIAL, AND RESURRECTION, SO THEY CAN BE BORN AGAIN AND LIVE THEIR LIFE FOR JESUS. FOR THE NEW BORN AND MATURE CHRISTIANS IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW HE SAID HE WOULD COME BACK WITH THE SAME BODY THAT HE HAD BEFORE HE DIED, AND HE DID NOT JUST SAY IT, AND HE SHOWED HIMSELF TO PEOPLE, AND HE WAS NO LONGER IN THE TOMB AND IT WAS PROPHESIED IN THE OLD TESTAMENT.
IF JESUS RESURRECTION HAD NOT HAPPENED THEN IT WOULD SHOW TO BE A HUGE LIE AND PEOPLE WOULD NOT SAVED FROM SATAN, HIS DEMONS, OR HELL. JESUS HAD TO BE THE FINAL SACRIFICE FOR ALL OUR SIN SO WE COULD GO TO HEAVEN AND BE WITH JESUS FOREVER AND EVER. AS PEOPLE STUDY THE WORD OF GOD THEY FIND OUT MANY PROPHECIES HAVE ALREADY HAVE BEEN FULFILLED.
ARCHEOLOGY HAS HELPED PROVE THE WORD OF GOD TO BE TRUSTWORTHY BY SHOWING IN 1930'S THE WALLS OF JERICHO WERE PUSHED OUT NOT IN LIKE PEOPLE WANT TO BELIEVE, AND I WOULD SAY THAT PEOPLE NEED TO GET THEIR FACTS STRAIGHT ON THAT ONE. WHEN IT COMES TO CHRISTIANITY, IF WE DO NOT TELL PEOPLE ABOUT JESUS THEN SATAN WILL END UP RUINING THE HUMAN RACE WITH UGLY AND DISGUSTING EVIL SINS, AND THEY WILL RUN LIKE CRAZY AND THEY WILL DESTROY EVERYTHING WE HAVE TRIED TO BUILD IN PEOPLE TO HELP SAVE THEM FROM.
IT IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT TO START TELLING CHILDREN ABOUT JESUS BECAUSE ALL EVIL OR GOOD IN THIS WORLD STARTS WITH CHILDREN AS THEY ARE GROWING UP. IF YOU WANT THEM NOT IN JAIL OR PRISON, RAISE THEM RIGHT. I WILL TELL YOU WHY. IT DEPENDS ON HOW THEY ARE RAISED, AND AS THEY ARE GROW UP WITH PARENTS WHO ARE UNSAVED THEN THEY ARE UNSAVED OR THEY GROW UP WITH PARENTS WHO ARE SAVED AND THEY ARE SAVED AND THEY LEARN ALL ABOUT THE TRUTH OF GOD'S WORD, THEY LEARN HOW TO BEHAVE OR DO RIGHT THINGS FOR THEIR PARENTS OR FOR THEIR HEAVENLY FATHER.
IN NON CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS CHILDREN ARE NOT ALLOWED TO PRAY OR STUDY THE WORD OF GOD, AND I THINK THAT IS A BIG SHAME ON THE ADULTS IN THIS WORLD FOR NOT LETTING THEM. EVEN SOME CHILDREN GET PUNISHED FOR DOING IT AND THAT IS WHY I BELIEVE THEY NEED TO BE IN A CHRISTIAN SCHOOL BECAUSE CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS WOULD ENCOURAGE IT GLADLY AND ENCOURAGE THE CHILDREN TO DO IT MORE AND MORE EVERY DAY, THAT IS WHAT ALL ADULTS SHOULD BE DOING, ENCOURAGING CHILDREN TO NOT BE AFRAID TO BE WHO GOD WANTS THEM TO BE, TO DO WHAT GOD WANTS THEM TO DO, NOT WHAT SATAN OR EVIL MEN AND WOMAN WANT THEM TO DO.
THERE IS A FEW THINGS WE CAN DO TO HELP ADULT AND CHILDREN GROW UP IN THE LORD AND THAT IS WE NEED TO REMIND THEM THAT STUDYING GOD'S WORD AND MEMORIZING SCRIPTURE HELPS THEM KNOW WHAT CHAPTER WHICH VERSE TO LOOK AT AND WHAT SOURCE OF INFORMATION NEEDS TO BE GIVEN OUT TO PEOPLE WHO WANT TO BE A GOOD WITNESS TO SOMEONE, THEN IF YOU GO TO OTHER SOURCES OF INFORMATION THEY COULD BE TRUE OR FALSE, SO WE NEED TO BE CAREFUL WHEN STUDYING SOMETHING.
ONE OF THE BEST WAYS TO BE A GOOD WITNESS IS TO LEARN TO BE PATIENT ENOUGH TO SIT AND LISTEN, AND RESPOND AFTER THE OTHER PERSON IS DONE TALKING, BECAUSE IF YOU INTERRUPT THEM THEN YOU WILL NOT KNOW WHAT TO SAY TO THEM OR YOU END UP SAYING THE WRONG THINGS AND A BIG ARGUMENT OR FIGHT STARTS OR THE OTHER PERSON WALKS AWAY OR YOU BOTH WALK AWAY WITH NOTHING ACCOMPLISHED, PLUS IF YOU LISTEN YOU WILL BE ABLE TO TELL IF THEY ARE TELLING YOU THE TRUTH OR NOT.
YOU NEED TO KNOW WHY THEY ARE TELLING YOU WHAT THEY ARE TELLING YOU, BECAUSE YOU NEED TO KNOW WHETHER WHAT THEY ARE TELLING YOU IS GOING TO HURT THEIR FUTURE OR NOT AND YOU ALSO NEED TO FOUND OUT WHAT THEIR PURPOSE IS IN WHY THEY ARE TELLING YOU THE THINGS THAT THEY ARE TELLING YOU, AND PLUS IF YOU INTERRUPT, THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN LEARN ANYTHING FROM THAT PERSON OR ANYONE ELSE.
WHEN IT COMES TO BIBLE HERE IS THE BASIC BELIEFS A BABY CHRISTIAN NEEDS TO FIND OUT AND THAT IS GOD CREATED EVERYTHING, THE PLANETS, EARTH, ALL PLANTS AND ANIMALS, AND MEN, WOMEN, CHILDREN. SIN CAME INTO THE WORLD THROUGH DISOBEDIENCE OF ADAM AND EVE IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN WHEN THEY ATE FRUIT OF TREE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL, BECAUSE OF THEM, ANYONE WHO GET BORN INTO THIS WORLD IS BORN SPIRITUALLY DEAD. SALVATION ONLY COMES THROUGH JESUS. THE TRINITY OR GODHEAD IS ONE GOD IN THREE PERSONS.
THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS, THE RAPTURE OF ALL THE SAINTS, JESUS REIGNS FOR 1, 000 YEARS, AND THE SAINTS COME WITH HIM. THE GREAT WHITE THRONE JUDGMENT. HEAVEN AND HELL ARE BOTH ETERNAL. THE VIRGIN BIRTH. THE DEITY OF JESUS CHRIST. THE BIBLE IS THE PERFECT WORD OF GOD.
THE BODILY RESURRECTION OF JESUS. ONENESS PENTECOSTALS AND APOSTOLICS BELIEVE THAT THERE IS ONLY JESUS WHEN IT COMES TO THE GODHEAD JUST BECAUSE THE BIBLE SAYS HE IS THE FULLNESS OF THE GODHEAD BODILINESS, THE ONE THINK THEY FORGOT TO NOTICE OR IGNORE WAS THE PART THAT SAYS HE WAS THE FULLNESS BODILY, NOT SPIRITUALLY, BUT BODILY, IT SAID NOTHING ABOUT HIS SPIRIT, ONLY HIS BODY, SO EVEN THOUGH HE IS THE FULLNESS OF THE GODHEAD BODILY. HE ALSO HAS A SPIRIT, WHICH MEANS, HE IS ALSO GOD, AND GOD IS SPIRIT, AND GOD THE FATHER IS SPIRIT, AND HE HAS A HOLY SPIRIT, SO WHAT THE ONENESS PENTECOSTALS AND APOSTOLICS BELIEVE IS FALSE, BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE FATHER, THE SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT TO MAKE THE GODHEAD.
PLUS WHEN IT COMES TO THE GODHEAD WOULD HAVE NO SALVATION IF THE FATHER WAS LEFT OUT OR IF THE HOLY IS LEFT OUT. IF THE FATHER DID NOT LOVE US, HE WOULD HAVE HAD HIS SON SUFFERING AND DIE ON A CROSS AND THE HOLY SPIRIT WOULD NOT EVEN TRY TO SPEAK TO US AND WE WOULD ALL END UP IN HELL, BECAUSE IF PERSON OF THE GODHEAD DOES NOT DO THEIR JOB THEN WE WILL STAY CONDEMNED, FIRST JOHN FIVE SEVEN SAYS THERE ARE IN HEAVEN, THE FATHER, THE WORD, WHICH IS JESUS THE SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT, WHICH IS THE SPIRIT OF GOD, IT SAYS THEY ARE ALL ONE, THEY ARE ONE IN THOUGHT, WILL AND PURPOSE.
MOST PEOPLE SEEM TO SAY THAT HE IS THE SON OF GOD, AND PEOPLE SAY HE IS JUST A PROPHET, BUT HE IS MUCH MORE THAN THAT, HE IS SON OF MAN, HIGH PRIEST, KING OF KINGS, LORD OF LORDS, GOOD SHEPHERD, LAMB OF GOD, SAVIOR, WONDERFUL COUNSELOR, GOD, PRINCE OF PEACE, LION OF JUDAH, ELDER BROTHER, HEALER, FIRST AND THE LAST, BEGINNING AND END, ALPHA AND OMEGA, ANCIENT OF DAYS, OUR DEMON BUSTER, AND WHEN WE USE HIS NAME DEMONS FLEE.
JESUS WAS SO POWER THAT PEOPLE WERE THREATENING HIS LIFE BECAUSE JESUS WAS DOING THINGS THAT NO OTHER MAN COULD DO WITHOUT THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND LATER ON AFTER HE WAS RISEN FROM THE DEAD HE ALSO SAID HE IS CREATOR, ALPHA AND OMEGA, BEGINNING AND THE END, FIRST AND THE LAST, ALMIGHTY, HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL AND HEAVEN AND EARTH, REDEEMER, LORD OF HOSTS, CREATOR OF EVERYTHING, PLUS HE IS GOD OF HOSTS, GOD OF ALL FLESH.
THE BIBLE SAYS THAT HE IS THE INVISIBLE GOD, AND ALL THINGS WERE CREATED BY HIM IN HEAVEN AND ON THE THE EARTH, AND HE DID IT FOR HIMSELF, AND HE WILL ALWAYS COME FIRST, BECAUSE IF IT WERE NOT FOR HIM, NOTHING HERE THAT WAS CREATED WOULD HAVE EVER EXISTED, AND I THINK IT IS NOT SMART TO WANT TO KILL SOMEONE WHO IS ABLE TO YOUR SOUL FROM HELL AND TAKE YOU TO A WONDERFUL PLACE CALLED HEAVEN WHERE YOU WILL NO LONGER HAVE TO FACE THE MISERIES OF THIS WORLD.
HOLY SPIRIT HAS NAMES TOO AND THEY ARE, GOD, CREATOR, LORD, SPIRIT OF GOD, SPIRIT OF TRUTH, ETERNAL SPIRIT, THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS CHARACTERISTICS OF A PERSON. HE HAS A MIND, A WILL, CAN SPEAK, AND HE CALLS HIMSELF ME. THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS DNA JUST LIKE WE DO, BUT HIS DNA IS DIFFERENT, BECAUSE OURS IS PHYSICAL, BUT HIS IS SPIRITUAL, AND THIS IS WHAT HE HAS IN HIS DNA, HE HAS GRACE, LIFE, ADOPTION, HOLINESS, TRUTH, GLORY OR POWER, AND SUPPLICATION.
HOLY SPIRIT HELPS US BY TELLING US THINGS IN OUR SPIRIT TO HELP WARN US WHEN DANGER IS AHEAD OR WHEN SOMEONE NEEDS TO BE SET FREE FROM A DEMON. I AM GOING TO GIVE YOU EXAMPLES OF THIS, HERE IS MY FIRST EXAMPLE, ONE TIME WHEN I WAS 14 YEARS OLD I WAS AT A MALL, WITH MY SISTER, HALF SISTER AND MOM, AND AFTER WE WAS ALL DONE SHOPPING WE STARTED TO LEAVE, AND ALL THE SUDDEN I FELT SOMETHING IN MY SPIRIT, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT SPOKE TO ME AND SAID YOU NEED TO GET OUT OF THERE.
I WAS LIKE WHAT, WHY, THEN I DID NOT SAY NOTHING ELSE, EXCEPT TO MY MOM, I TOLD HER, MOM WE NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE, AND SHE SAID, WHAT DO YOU MEAN, AND I SAID, MOM I DO NOT KNOW, BUT WE GOT TO GET OUT OF HERE AND MEAN FAST, AND SHE SAID OK LETS GET OUT OF HERE AND GO HOME, THEN WE ALL GOT IN THE CAR AS FAST AS WE COULD, THEN WE WENT HOME AND WAS SAFE, AND ABOUT 2 HOURS LATER 2 MEN WENT INTO THE MALL WITH GUNS. WHEN MY MOM FOUND OUT, SHE THANKED GOD AND ME FOR OBEYING THE HOLY SPIRIT WHEN HE WAS TALKING TO ME.
OK HERE IS MY SECOND EXAMPLE, ONE TIME I WAS AT A CHURCH REVIVAL, AND ALL THE SUDDEN A WOMAN FALLS RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME AND SHE STARTS SCREAMING, AND I ASKED HOLY SPIRIT WHAT WAS GOING ON, AND HE SAID SHE HAS A TORMENTING DEMON, AND I GOT SUCH A STRONG ALERT FEELING IN MY SPIRIT, AND I SAID, YOU TORMENTING DEMON, COME OUT OF HER IN JESUS NAME.
WHEN I SAID THAT, THE DEMON STARTED MESSING WITH HER, AND SHE STARTED SCREAMING, AND THE DEMON STARTED BENDING HER BACK WAY BACK AS IF HE WAS TRYING TO BREAK HER BACK, AND SO I SAID WITH A MORE FIRM VOICE, I SAID COME OUT OF HER, AND ALMOST IMMEDIATELY SHE SITS UP, AND SHE STARTS WIPING HER EYES, AND A DEACON COMES ALONG AS ASKS IF SHE IS OK, AND SHE TAKES A DEEP BREATH AND SAYS YEAH, AND SO THEN THE DEACON TAKES HER OUT OF THE SANCTUARY AND MINISTERS TO HER.
I BELIEVE ONCE WE ARE BORN AGAIN IT IS FOREVER WHOLEHEARTEDLY. WHEN WE KNOW JESUS AS OUR PERSONAL LORD AND SAVIOR WE HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM AND THIS RELATIONSHIP WILL NEVER BE BROKEN, AND GOD THE FATHER GAVE US JESUS WHEN WE ACCEPTED HIM INTO OUR HEART AND LIFE, AND BECAUSE WE ACCEPTED HIM, WE WILL NOT GO TO HELL, BECAUSE WE ARE NO LONGER UNDER CONDEMNATION, AND HAVE GONE FROM DYING IN OUR SIN TO LIVING FOR JESUS, AND WE WILL BE WITH OUR JESUS FOREVER. OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS IS SECURE, AND WE NEED TO REMEMEBER THAT JESUS DID ALL THE WORK THAT NEEDED TO BE DONE FOR US TO BECOME BORN AGAIN, ALL WE NEED TO DO IS BELIEVE AND HAVE FAITH THAT WE WILL NEVER LOSE HIM, AND IF WE BELIEVE WE WILL LOSE THE RELATIONSHIP, THEN WE DO NOT TRULY BELIEVE WHO JESUS REALLY IS.
IT IS LIKE THIS, WHEN A DAD SEES HIS CHILD FOR THE FIRST TIME, HE SAYS THIS CHILD IS MINE AND PRECIOUS TO ME, AND I AM NEVER LETTING THEM GO. THIS RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS SETS US FREE FROM SIN, AND WE TRY TO DO OUR BEST TO LIVE IN HOLINESS, BECAUSE WE ARE NOW CHILDREN GOD. ONCE WE HAVE JESUS, NOTHING CAN EVER TAKE HIM AWAY FROM US, AND WE DID NOT HAVE TO DO ANYTHING AT ALL FOR HIM TO ACCEPT US EITHER, BUT ONCE WE ACCEPT HIM, WE MAKE A CHOICE TO LIVE FOR HIM. WE KNOW WE HAVE THINGS IN OUR LIFE WE NEED TO LET HIM TAKE FROM US SO OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM BECOMES STRONGER, AND WE STOP LIVING FOR SATAN.
IF WE THINK WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING FOR SOMEONE TO ACCEPT US THEN WE DO NOT REALLY KNOW WHAT TRUE LOVE IS ALL ABOUT AND JESUS LOOKS AT THAT AS AN INSULT, BECAUSE YOU COULD NOT JUST BELIEVE HIM OR HAVE FAITH IN HIM, YOU THINK YOU HAD TO DO ALL KINDS OF THINGS TO GET HIM TO LOVE YOU AND THAT IS NOT TRUE AT ALL, AND JESUS WILL SAY HE NEVER KNEW YOU, AND HE WILL TELL YOU TO GET AWAY FROM HIM. HE WILL CONSIDER EVERYTHING YOU DO AS SINFUL, BECAUSE YOU NEVER TRULY ACCEPTED HIM.
THERE IS ONE THING THAT PEOPLE NEED TO REMEMBER AND THAT IS JESUS DIED FOR US WAY BEFORE WE CAME TO HIM AND WHEN WE COME TO HIM WE CAN COME TO HIM JUST AS WE ARE, WE DO NOT NEED TO TRY AND MAKE OURSELVES RIGHT, BECAUSE JESUS WILL MAKE US RIGHT WHEN WE ACCEPT WHO HE IS AND TRUST HIM WHOLEHEARTEDLY AS OUR LORD AND SAVIOR, AND WE NEED TO BELIEVE AND HAVE FAITH THAT HE LOVES US SO MUCH.
HE MADE A WAY FOR US TO GET OUT OF OUR MISERY AND DARKNESS. IF GOD DID NOT LOVE US THEN HE WOULD HAVE NEVER SENT HIS SON TO DIE FOR US SO WE BECOME BORN AGAIN, AND JESUS WOULD NOT HAVE LOVED US IF HE DID NOT LAY DOWN HIS OWN LIFE FOR US, BUT BECAUSE HE DOES LOVE US HE DID DIE FOR US AND HE DID RISE AGAIN FROM THE DEAD, SO YOU CAN BELIEVE AND HAVE FAITH IN HIM, BECAUSE HE NOT ONLY DID IT, BUT HE SAID HE WOULD AHEAD OF TIME, SINCE HE SAID IT AHEAD OF TIME, WE BELIEVE IT, HAVE FAITH IN IT, BECAUSE OF IT SOME OF US ARE BORN AGAIN.
JESUS IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE, NO ONE CAN COME TO THE FATHER EXCEPT THROUGH HIM, AND HE IS THE ONE WHO WILL KEEP US BORN AGAIN, AND BECAUSE WE ARE BORN AGAIN HE WILL KEEP US WITH HIM IN HEAVEN FOREVER WHEN WE DIE, AND AFTER WE ARE BORN AGAIN, HE WILL BEGIN TO WORK ON OUR HEARTS UNTIL WE GO TO BE WITH HIM, SO WE HAVE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT, BECAUSE WE HAVE HIM FOREVER, WHILE WE ARE ON THE EARTH, AND AFTER WE ARE IN HEAVEN, HE WILL BECOME OUR EVERYTHING.
NOW I AM GOING TO TALK MORE ABOUT CULTS, A CULT IS SOMETHING THAT DENIES THE TRUE DOCTRINES OF THE WORD OF GOD, LIKE THE DEITY OF JESUS, TRINITY, RESURRECTION, SALVATION BY GRACE, WHICH SHOWS THE WORK FOR SALVATION WAS DONE WHEN JESUS DIED ON THE CROSS THEN ROSE AGAIN. MORMONS TRY TO ADD THEIR OWN BOOK, WHICH IS AGAINST THE BIBLE, AND THE BIBLE SAYS, IF ANYONE ADDS OR TAKES AWAY FROM THE BOOK OF REVELATION, THEN GOD WILL SEND PLAGUES WRITTEN IN REVELATION.
MORMONS TEACH THAT GOD THE FATHER HAS FLESH AND JESUS IS A CREATED BEING, AND THEY EVEN SAY THAT JESUS WAS BORN IN HEAVEN AS ONE OF GOD’S SPIRIT CHILDREN, BUT THAT IS A LIE, BECAUSE THE BIBLE SAYS JESUS IS GOD IN FLESH, AND HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN AROUND, HE WAS NOT CREATED, BUT HE CAME TO US AS A BABY BORN ON EARTH, AND HE IS THE CREATOR ALL THINGS. MORMONS TEACH THAT GOD, JESUS, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT ARE 3 GOD'S, BUT THE BIBLE SAYS THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD.
JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES SAY THERE IS ONLY 1 GOD IN 1 PERSON BUT THE BIBLE SAYS THERE IS 1 GOD IN 3 PERSONS. THEY SAY THERE IS NO TRINITY, BUT TRINITY IS IN THE BIBLE, THE BIBLE USES ANOTHER NAME FOR IT, AND IS GODHEAD. THEY SAY JESUS IS MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL, BUT JESUS WAS NOT CREATED AND ANGELS ARE CREATED BEINGS, SO JESUS IS NOT MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL, AND JESUS WAS NOT THE BROTHER OF SATAN OR LUCIFER EITHER, BECAUSE WAS WITHOUT SIN, AND SATAN IS THE WORST SINNER OF ALL. THEY SAY HE DID NOT RAISE FROM THE DEAD IN PHYSICAL BODY, BUT JESUS SAID HE WOULD BE RAISE WITH THE SAME BODY AND HE WENT TO PEOPLE AFTER HE ROSE FROM THE DEAD TO SHOW THE PROOF.
THEY SAY HE DID NOT RAISE AS A HUMAN, BUT AS A SPIRIT, BUT AGAIN, HE ROSE WITH HIS PHYSICAL BODY. JESUS WENT TO THOMAS, PEOPLE CALL DOUBTING THOMAS. WHEN THOMAS SAW HIM HE BECOME AN INSTANT BELIEVER, BUT JESUS SAID BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO HAVE NOT SEEN BUT YET BELIEVE. THEY SAY JESUS WAS BORN AGAIN, BUT JESUS DOES NOT NEED TO BE SAVED FROM ANYTHING, BECAUSE HE WAS BORN SINLESS, AND PLUS HE IS THE ONE THAT SAVES US FROM SIN, SINCE HE DIED ON THE CROSS FOR IT, AND THEY SAY HE DID NOT DIE ON A CROSS BUT ON A STAKE, BUT HE WAS DID DIE ON A CROSS AND PETER WHO WAS CALLED SIMON AT THAT TIME, WAS MADE TO CARRY THAT CROSS, SOLDIERS EVEN CALLED IT A CROSS AS THEY WERE MOCKING JESUS SAYING COME DOWN FROM THE CROSS, SO HE DIED ON A CROSS. THE GREEK WORD FOR CROSS IS STAUROS AND IT MEANS, AN UPRIGHT STAKE, A POINTED ONE, A CROSS.
IF IT WAS A STAKE, INSTEAD OF A CROSS, THEN JESUS HANDS WOULD BE PLACED OVER HIS HEAD WITH A NAIL PUT IN HIS WRISTS, SO THE WRISTS WOULD BE ONE ON TOP OF THE OTHER, AND ONLY ONE NAIL WOULD BE NEEDED, AND I WANT TO SAY SOMETHING HERE, NO MATTER WHICH WAY HE DIED, HE STILL ROSE FROM THE DEAD, AND CONQUERED DEATH, AND BEAT SATAN AT HIS GAME, THINKING HE WAS GOING TO RULE THE EARTH. JESUS IS OUR RULER FOREVER AND HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN RULER, EVEN IF THE JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES DECIDES TO PUT A DATE ON WHEN HE STARTED TO RULE THE EARTH, AND THEY EVEN SAY THAT JESUS DIED FOR EVERYONE ACCEPT ADAM, BUT THE BIBLE SAYS HE DIED FOR ALL, THAT INCLUDES ADAM.
THEY SAY THEIR CHURCH IS NAMED AFTER THEM, BUT THE TRUE BORN AGAIN BELIEVERS ARE ALL THE CHURCH, AND THEY SAY THEY ARE THE ONLY WAY TO THE TRUTH, BUT JESUS SAID HE WAS THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE. THEY SAY ONLY THEIR CHURCH CAN ONLY WILL BE BORN AGAIN, BUT BIBLE SAYS, ALL THAT CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED, AND THEY SAY WORKS ARE NECESSARY FOR SALVATION, BUT JESUS DID THE FINAL WORK NEEDED TO BE DONE TO HELP US BE BORN AGAIN. THEY SAY OUR SOULS WILL NO LONGER EXIST ONCE WE DIE, BUT JESUS ROSE FROM THE DEAD AND STILL EXISTS, SO WE WILL.
THEY SAY THERE IS NO LAKE OF FIRE WHERE EVIL PEOPLE ARE PUNISHED, WELL THEY JUST DO NOT WANT TO FACE UP TO THE FACT. THEY SAY ONLY THE 144, 000 MAY TAKE COMMUNION, BUT THE SHOWS US THAT ANYONE WHO IS A TRUE BORN AGAIN BELIEVE CAN TAKE COMMUNION, AND THEY SAY THAT BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS ARE A SIN, AND WHAT I SAY TO THAT IS, IF BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS WERE A SIN, A LOT OF PEOPLE WOULD HAVE BEEN DEAD BY NOW INSTEAD OF THEIR LIFE BEING SAVED FROM HAVING ONE, BECAUSE GOD IS NOT GOING TO WORK THROUGH SOMETHING THAT IS CONSIDERED TO BE SINFUL.
I THINK IT IS GREAT, BECAUSE OF DOCTORS THINKING OF THAT. ATHEISTS DO NOT BELIEVE GOD EXISTS OR THEY DENY HE EXISTS, AND THEY DO NOT BELIEVE IN HEAVEN OR THE LAKE OF FIRE, OR EVEN SATAN OR DEMONS OR EVEN ANGELS, AND THEY BELIEVE ONCE WE DIE THAT IS IT, WE NO LONGER EXIST, BUT THAT TOTALLY GOES AGAIN THE BIBLE BECAUSE GOD DOES EXIST, THERE IS A HEAVEN AND A LAKE OF FIRE AND SATAN AND DEMONS, AND ANGELS. IF THEY WOULD BECOME BORN AGAIN THEY WOULD UNDERSTAND AND REALIZE THAT AND THEIR LIFE WOULD BE SO MUCH BETTER THAN IT IS.
A COMMANDMENT TO LOVE GOD AND OTHERS
GOD'S LOVE IS PERFECT, AND WHEN YOU LIVE IN GOD'S LOVE, THEN HIS LOVE LASTS FOREVER, AND THROUGH HIS LOVE HE DRAWS YOU NEAR HIM THROUGH THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND THERE IS NOT EVEN ONE THING THAT CAN SEPARATE YOU FROM HIS PERFECT LOVE. HIS LOVE TAKES AWAY ALL FEAR, AND FEAR COMES FROM SATAN, AND HE HAS NO LOVE IN HIM, SO IN LOVE GOD'S THERE IS NO FEAR. IF YOU DO NOT LOVE PEOPLE, THEN YOU DO NOT LOVE GOD OR HAVE HIM IN YOUR LIFE, JEREMIAH 31 : 3, ROMANS 8 : 39, 1 JOHN 2 : 5, 1 JOHN 4 : 12, 1 JOHN 4 : 18.
YOU NEED TO LOVE JESUS MORE THAN ANYTHING WITH ALL YOUR HEART, SOUL, MIND AND STRENGTH, BECAUSE IF YOU DO NOT, THEN YOU ARE NOT WORTHY TO HAVE ALL GOD HAS FOR YOU ESPECIALLY HAVE HIM IN YOUR LIFE, AND IF YOU PUT ANYTHING ABOVE LOVING JESUS, THEN YOU DO NOT HAVE HIS LOVE IN YOU, MATTHEW 10 : 37-38, LUKE 10 : 27, 1 JOHN 2 : 15
CONFRONTING SOMEONE WITH THEIR SIN IS SHOWING LOVE TO THEM, AND SHOULD BE GRATEFUL THAT THEY ARE DOING IT BECAUSE IF YOU LET IT UPSET YOU THEN YOU ARE PROVING YOURSELF TO NOT BE VERY INTELLIGENT, PROVERBS 9 : 8, PROVERBS 12 : 1, PROVERBS 27 : 5, MATTHEW 18 : 15, GALATIANS 5 : 22-23.
IF YOU LOVE SOMEONE, THEN YOU WILL BE WILLING TO WAIT FOR THEM FOR AS LONG AS IT TAKES, BECAUSE THAT IS SHOWING REAL LOVE, AND IT SHOWS YOU ARE STRONG ENOUGH TO GO THROUGH ANYTHING, AND WHEN GOD SAYS IT IS TIME, THEN THE RELATIONSHIP WITH THAT PERSON WILL ONLY GET BETTER, AND WHEN YOU DECIDE TO PUT GOD IN THE MIDDLE OF IT, THEN NOTHING CAN STOP THE RELATIONSHIP, AND IF YOU WANT TO KEEP THAT RELATIONSHIP THEN YOU DO NOT HAVE IT IN YOUR HEART OR MIND TO HURT THE OTHER PERSON, AND YOU WILL FORGIVE AND FORGET WHAT THEY DID WRONG TO YOU AND THEY WILL DO THE SAME FOR YOU, GENESIS 29 : 20, LEVITICUS 19 : 18, DEUTERONOMY 32 : 43, PSALMS 27 : 14, ROMANS 13 : 10, 1 CORINTHIANS 13 : 4-7.
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO GET ANGRY BUT YOU NEED TO BE ANGRY FOR THE RIGHT REASONS, AND THE ONE THING YOU DO NOT WANT TO DO IS HAVE A TEMPER AND STAY THAT WAY, BECAUSE NO ONE WANTS TO BE FRIENDS WITH SOMEONE WHO HAS A TEMPER, BECAUSE SOMETIMES A TEMPER CAN TURN INTO ABUSE, AND IF YOU HANG AROUND SOMEONE LIKE THAT, YOU MAY PICK UP THEIR HABIT, AND HURT SOMEONE AND REGRET IT LATER, AND IF SOMEONE SEES WHAT IS GOING ON THEY WILL NOT TRUST YOU, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE A PASTOR, AND GOD WILL JUDGE THAT PERSON, BECAUSE NOT ONLY ARE THEY SINNING BY LOSING THEIR TEMPER AND HURTING SOMEONE, BUT ALSO THEY ARE ALSO SINNING AGAINST GOD AND HURTING HIM, AND THEY END UP ALLOWING SATAN TO MAKE THINGS WORSE, PROVERBS 22 : 24-25, HOSEA 14 : 4, MATTHEW 5 : 22, MATTHEW 12 : 43-45, EPHESIANS 4 : 26-27, TITUS 1 : 7-9.
WHEN PEOPLE GET ANGRY AT YOU FOR NO REASON, BE GOOD TO THEM, AND BE PATIENT WITH THEM, ASK THEM WHAT IS WRONG AND PRAY WITH THEM, AND NO MATTER WHAT, CONTINUE TO LOVE THEM, AND LET YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER DEAL WITH THEM, AND DO NOT GET OFFENDED AND PRIDEFUL BY THINKING YOU ARE ANY BETTER THAN THEY ARE, AND WHEN YOU SEE SOMEONE GETTING HURT, DO NOT JUST SIT THERE AND DO NOTHING, STAND UP FOR THEM, BECAUSE THEY JUST END UP DOING THE SAME FOR YOU LATER, BECAUSE SOMETIMES GOODNESS COMES OUT OF THE SITUATION, AND IF YOU DO NOT GIVE UP ON EACH OTHER, BECAUSE YOU BOTH ENDED UP DECIDING TO DO THE RIGHT THING, MATTHEW 5 : 44-45, JOHN 15 :9.
ALWAYS TELL SOMEONE THE WHOLE TRUTH NO MATTER WHAT BECAUSE IT PLEASES GOD AND IT SHOWS PEOPLE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED, AND EVEN IF THE TRUTH HURTS, SOMETIMES IT HELPS PEOPLE GROW IN THE LORD, BECAUSE A PASTOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR TELLING THE TRUTH, AND THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE REPRESENTING WHO GOD IS, AND GOD ABOUT TRUTH, BECAUSE HE ALWAYS TELLS THE TRUTH, AND JUST LIKE ANYONE ELSE, PASTOR WILL NOT GO TO HEAVEN IF THEY SPEAK LIES, PROVERBS 12 : 19, PROVERBS 16 : 6, ECCLESIASTES 12 : 10, JOHN 1 : 14, JOHN 1 : 17, JOHN 14 : 6, JOHN 17 : 17, EPHESIANS 4 : 15-16.
OBEYING JESUS BY LOVING OTHERS BY NOT BEING PREJUDICE TOWARDS THEM, AND ARE WILLING TO DIE FOR SOMEONE ELSE, THEN THAT SHOWS YOU LOVE THEM AND JESUS, AND LOVE COMES FROM GOD, AND THAT LOVE LASTS FOREVER, AND IF YOU LOVE GOD, YOU WANT TO DO WHAT HE SAYS, AND NOT QUIT, BECAUSE THAT SHOWS YOU ARE HIS CHILD, BUT IF YOU HATE HIM, AND REBEL AGAINST HIM, THEN YOU PROVE TO BE A CHILD OF SATAN, AND IF YOU LOVE PEOPLE AND THE THINGS OF THIS WORLD MORE THAN GOD, THEN YOU DO NOT HAVE THE HOLY SPIRIT LIVING INSIDE YOU, AND IF YOU CHOOSE NOT TO LOVE OTHER OR GOD, THEN YOU DO NOT KNOW GOD, AND YOU ARE SPIRITUALLY DEAD, SO IF YOU WANT TO SHOW YOU LOVE SOMEONE DO NOT JUST SAY YOU ARE GOING TO DO SOMETHING FOR THEM, ALSO DO IT FOR THEM, BECAUSE WHEN YOU SHOW LOVE TO OTHERS, IT SHOWS YOU HAVING THE HOLY SPIRIT INSIDE YOU, JOHN 14 :15, JOHN 14 : 21, JOHN 15 :13, 1 JOHN 3 : 18, 1 JOHN 4 : 7-8, 1 JOHN 5 : 3, 2 JOHN 1 : 6.
RECEIVE HEALING BY JESUS INSTRUCTIONS
AS YOU COME TO GOD AS HIS LITTLE CHILD AND SEEK HIS WILL FIRST, AND TRUST HIM WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND HAVE NO WORRIES ABOUT WHAT YOU FEEL AND THINK ABOUT THINGS GOING ON IN YOUR LIFE, KNOWING THAT GOD KNOWS WHAT IS BETTER FOR YOU, BECAUSE HE KNOWS YOU INSIDE AND OUT, EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU, AND HE WILL LEAD YOU IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION, SO SUBMIT YOUR LIFE TO HIM, SO HE CAN DO HIS WORK IN YOU AND THROUGH YOU, AND BLESS YOUR LIFE COMPLETELY. 1 SAMUEL 15 : 22, 2 CHRONICLES 7 : 14, PROVERBS 3 :5-6, MATTHEW 6 : 33.
SATAN IS THE DESTROYER OF LIFE, SO YOU NEED TO RESIST SATAN'S ATTACKS BY TURNING AWAY FROM SIN, BECAUSE THINGS WILL GET SO MUCH WORSE FOR YOU IF YOU DON'T, SO TURN TOWARDS GOD, BECAUSE HE IS THE GIVER OF LIFE, AND IF YOU SEEK HIM AND HIS WAYS, YOU WILL GET THE MANIFESTATION OF YOUR HEALING, BUT IF YOU DO NOT WANT THE FULL MANIFESTATION OF YOUR HEALING, THEN GO AHEAD AND GO YOUR WAY, AND LET SATAN USE THAT AGAINST YOU, LET HIM MESS UP YOUR LIFE, BUT IF YOU WANT TO GET OUT OF THAT MESS YOU ARE IN, START LISTENING TO GOD, THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND DO NOT IGNORE HIM, BECAUSE THE HOLY SPIRIT KNOWS EVERYTHING THAT IS GOING ON IN YOUR LIFE, SO HE WILL NEVER STEER YOU IN THE WRONG DIRECTION EVER. LUKE 11 : 23-26, JOHN 10 : 10, JAMES 4 : 7, GOD WILL REWARD YOU IF YOU DO YOUR FASTING PRIVATELY., MATTHEW 6 : 16-18
ASK GOD TO FORGIVE YOU BEFORE YOU COME TO HIM ABOUT THINGS YOU WANT OR NEED IN YOUR LIFE, BECAUSE HE WILL NOT LISTEN TO AN DISOBEDIENT CHILD OF HIS, BECAUSE DISOBEDIENT CHILDREN ARE NOT HIS CHILDREN, BECAUSE DISOBEDIENT CHILDREN FOLLOW SATAN, SO IT IS BEST TO GET THE SIN OUT OF THE WAY FIRST, SO YOU CAN PRESENT YOURSELF IN THE WAY GOD WANTS TO SEE YOU. MATTHEW 25 : 41-46, JAMES 5 : 16
GOD WILL TAKE VENGEANCE ON YOU, AND NOT DO ANYTHING FOR YOU, IF YOU CHOOSE NOT TO FORGIVE SOMEONE OR HOLD ON TO BITTERNESS OR HATE. PSALMS 94 : 1O, MATTHEW 18 : 21-35. WHEN WE ACCEPT JESUS INTO OUR LIFE TO BE OUR LORD AND SAVIOR, GOD PROMISES US ETERNAL LIFE, AND SINCE WE HAVE ETERNAL LIFE, THAT GIVES US BOTH PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL HEALING FROM THE INSIDE OUT, AND WE HAVE GO TO A PLACE CALLED HEAVEN, WHICH IS OUR HOME FOREVER. JOHN 3 : 16, 1 CORINTHIANS 15 : 53-54, 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 1
GOD WANTS TO FREE US FROM THE THINGS OF SATAN, SO HE CAN USE US TO TELL PEOPLE ABOUT JESUS, AND BY OBEYING GOD, CHILDREN OF GOD LIVE LONGER. 2 KINGS 20 : 5-6, PSALMS 37 : 3-5. YOU HAVE GOD'S MERCY WHEN YOU FOLLOW HIM, BUT YOU DIE PHYSICALLY AND SPIRITUALLY WHEN YOU TURN YOUR BACK ON GOD. PSALMS 103 : 2-5, ROMANS 6 : 14, ROMANS 6 : 23. BY SAYING NEGATIVE WORDS YOU CAUSE YOURSELF NOT TO HAVE THE MANIFESTATION OF YOUR HEALING, BUT IF YOU SAY POSITIVE WORDS, THEN THAT IS WHAT PLEASES GOD AND HE WILL BLESS YOU FOR IT. PROVERBS 15 : 14, PROVERBS 16 : 23, PROVERBS 18 : 21
THE HOLY SPIRIT KNOWS OUR THOUGHTS, AND HE KNOWS SOMETIMES THOSE THOUGHTS DO NOT COME IN LINE WITH HIS.PSALMS 94 : 11 YOUR DOUBT CAN CAUSE YOU NOT TO HAVE THE MANIFESTATION OF YOUR HEALING, AND GOD WANTS YOU TO BELIEVE IN WHAT HE WILL DO AND WHAT HE HAS DONE, AND IT HURTS HIS FEELINGS WHEN WE CHOOSE NOT TO. HEBREWS 11 : 6 IF YOU HAVE FAITH IN GOD, RAISE YOUR HANDS UP, AND SHOW THE ATTITUDE JESUS HAD WHEN HE WAS ON THE CROSS. PSALMS 31 : 5, 1 TIMOTHY 2 : 8
THE ONE THING WE NEED TO ALWAYS REMEMBER, GOD'S SPIRIT IS IN US, SO IT IS GOD'S SPIRIT THAT GIVES THE MANIFESTATION OF SOMEONE'S HEALING WHEN WE LAY HANDS ON THEM AND PRAY FOR THEM, AND AS WE PRAY, IF WE DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO PRAY, THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL TELL US WHAT TO SAY WHEN WE PRAY. ZECHARIAH 4 : 6 ROMANS 8 : 26 NEVER LAY HANDS ON ANYONE WHO DOES NOT BELIEVE IN GOD'S POWER TO RECEIVE THE MANIFESTATION OF THEIR HEALING. 1 TIMOTHY 5 : 22
GOD TOLD US IF WE WILL OBEY HIM, HE WOULD NOT ALLOW DISEASES TO COME ON US, AND HE WILL GIVE US THE MANIFESTATION OF OUR HEALING, BECAUSE HE IS THE ONE THAT HEALS US. EXODUS 15 : 26 IF WE BELIEVE WE WILL RECEIVE OUR HEALING EVEN WHEN THE MANIFESTATION OF OUR HEALING DOES NOT HAPPEN RIGHT AWAY, THEN WE WILL HAVE THE MANIFESTATION, AND A BLESSING WILL COME OUT OF IT. 2 SAMUEL 12 : 15-25, 1 KINGS 17 : 7-24, JOHN 11 : 14-17, JOHN 11 : 23, JOHN 11 : 43-44
IF JESUS WOULD NOT HAVE SHED HIS BLOOD YOU WOULD HAVE DIED SPIRITUALLY AND PHYSICALLY, OR YOU WOULD NEVER BE SET FREE FROM SICKNESS, DISEASE OR SIN, AND JESUS BLOOD CAN BRING A PERSON BACK TO LIFE, SO BELIEVE IN WHAT JESUS DID FOR YOU AND WATCH WHAT HE DOES. LEVITICUS 17 : 11
JESUS HAS THE ABILITY TO GIVE YOU THE MANIFESTATION OF YOUR HEALING, AND WHEN THE MANIFESTATION OF THAT HEALING COMES, YOU ARE MADE COMPLETELY WHOLE. MATTHEW 14 : 36, MATTHEW 28 : 18 YOU HAVE THE GIFT OF THE MANIFESTATION OF YOUR HEALING INSIDE YOU. ACTS 1 : 7-8, ACTS 2 : 24, 1 CORINTHIANS 12 : 8-11
WHEN YOU ACCEPT JESUS AS YOUR LORD AND SAVIOR, GOD PROMISES THAT YOU HAVE THE MANIFESTATION OF YOUR HEALING IN THE PAST AND IN THE PRESENT. ISAIAH 53 : 5, 1 PETER 2 : 24
JESUS LET PEOPLE SPIT ON HIM, BEAT HIM, WHIPPED HIM, PULL HIS BEARD OUT, NAIL HIM ON A CROSS FOR OUR SICKNESS AND SIN, THEN HE DIED AND HE DID ALL OF THAT WILLINGLY, AND BECAUSE IT WAS HIS FATHER'S WILL, AND IF HE HAD NOT DONE THAT, THEN WE WOULD NOT BE SET FREE FROM OUR SINS. JOHN 10 : 18, HEBREWS 9 : 22
LET JESUS LIVE IN US THE TABERNABLE
WHEN IT COMES TO THE TABERNACLE, AND LOOK AT OURSELVES AS A TABERNACLE, AND THINK TO OURSELVES, WHEN JESUS COMES TO LIVE INSIDE US, HIS TABERNACLE, WE BECOME HIS AND HE BECOMES OUR LORD AND SAVIOR, WE GO FROM BEING POWERLESS TO POWERFUL, WHICH MEANS, ANYTHING JESUS CAN DO, WE CAN DO, AS LONG AS WE HAVE HIM LIVING INSIDE US.
I MEAN THINK ABOUT THAT, IF WE WOULD THINK ABOUT THE TABERNACLE AS BEING US, AND WE THINK ABOUT JESUS BEING IN THAT TABERNACLE, THEN REALLY THERE IS NOTHING IMPOSSIBLE, AND ALL THE SIN AND NEGATIVE ATTIDUDES WE HAVE, AND ALL THE FEARS WE HAVE WILL SUDDENLY NOT BE THERE, BUT ONLY IF WE TRUST JESUS ENOUGH TO LET HIM COME IN COMPLETELY.
I MEAN IF WE JUST LET HIS FOOT COME IN AND NOT FULLY ALL OF HIM, THEN HE MIGHT AS WELL TAKE HIS FOOT BACK OUT AND SAY FORGET IT, YOU EITHER TRUST ME ALL THE WAY, OR IT IS NO DEAL PERIOD, SO WHAT DO WE DO, LET HIM COME IN AND COME IN COMPLETELY, OR CONTINUE TO TREAT HIM LIKE HE IS SOME STRANGER OR ENEMY THAT WE CAN GET NOTHING FROM.
IF I ALLOW THE LORD TO BE MY SHEPHERD BY LETTING HIM GUIDE ME, THEN I WILL NO LONGER WANT ANYTHING ELSE. I WILL BE IN PEACE WHEN I LAY DOWN TO SLEEP. WHEN I GET INTO TROUBLE, I KNOW HE WILL HELP ME OUT OF IT. HE IS THERE FOR ME, AND HE WILL SHOW ME THE RIGHT WAY TO GO.
HE KNOWS I WANT TO DO THINGS FOR HIM. IF I DIED TODAY, I WOULD NOT BE AFRAID BECAUSE GOD IS MY FATHER. HE WILL DISCIPLINE ME WHEN I NEED IT.
GOD HELPS ME PREPARE MYSELF BY ANOINTING ME WITH HIS HOLY SPIRIT WHEN MY ENEMY COMES AGAINST ME AND ATTACKS ME. HE WANTS TO BLESS MY LIFE BECAUSE I OBEY HIM.
HIS GOODNESS AND MERCY IS WITH ME. WHEN I GO TO BE WITH JESUS FOREVER, AND I SEE MY HOME IN HEAVEN. PSALMS 5:8, PSALMS 23:1-6, EZEKIEL 34:14, PHILIPPIANS 4:19, REVELATION 7:17
JESUS IS GOD ALMIGHTY
IN THIS STUDY I WILL BE PROVING TO YOU THAT JESUS IS GOD THROUGH THE SCRIPTURES. IN DEUTERONOMY, 1 SAMUEL, AND 1 KINGS TELLS US AUTOMATICALLY WHO JESUS IS. PSALMS, JEREMIAH AND JOHN, SAY JESUS IS OUR GOD AND SALVATION COMES THROUGH HIM.
HE IS THE ONE WHO CREATED HUMANS, ANIMALS, AND PLANTS. CHRISTIANS ARE HIS PEOPLE OR HIS SHEEP. HE PROTECTS US WHEN WE OBEY HIM. HE IS ALIVE, NOT DEAD. GOD IS OUR ONE TRUE GOD. ALL OTHER GODS ARE FALSE. HE IS OUR KING FOREVER.
WHEN HE COMES BACK AS JUDGE, NO MAN, WOMAN OR CHILD WILL BE ABLE TO STAND IN HIS PRESENCE. HE IS GOD OVER ALL FLESH, WHETHER YOU ARE FOR HIM OR AGAINST HIM. DEUTERONOMY 4:35, 1 SAMUEL 2:2, 1 KINGS 8:60, PSALMS 68:20, PSALMS 100:3, PSALMS 140:7, JEREMIAH 10:10, JEREMIAH 32:27, JOHN 6:44.
THE ANGEL TOLD MARY THAT SHE WAS GOING TO HAVE A BABY AND IT WAS GOING TO BE A SON. HIS NAME IS EMMANUEL, AND EMMANUEL MEANS GOD WITH US, SO MARY CHOSEN TO BE THE ONE WHO WAS THE MOTHER OF OUR GOD, SAVIOR, AND LORD, AND HE BECAME THE FINAL ULTIMATE SACRIFICE FOR SIN, AND HE WAS OBEDIENT TO FULFILLING HIS PURPOSE.
THERE IS ONLY ONE TRUE JESUS, AND HE CAME TO SAVE US FROM OUR SINS, SATAN, DEMONS, AND THINGS SATAN TRIES TO GIVE US. MATTHEW 1:23, 1 TIMOTHY 3:16, TITUS 2:13 TITUS 2:14, JESUS IS THE WORD. HIS NAME MEANS GOD WITH US.
THE WORD CAME ALIVE WHEN JESUS CAME TO US IN THE FLESH. WHEN HE BECAME AN ADULT, HE TAUGHT US HOW TO LIVE A RIGHTEOUS AND HOLY LIFE. HE IS DOING THE SAME THING TODAY BY TEACHING US THE TRUTH OF GOD'S WORD THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT.
AFTER HIS SPIRIT LEFT HIS BODY ON THE CROSS, HE WENT TO HELL TO TELL PEOPLE ABOUT HIM WHO NEVER HAD THE CHANCE TO GET TO KNOW HIM AS THEIR SAVIOR AND LORD, THEN HE CAME BACK TO SHOW OTHERS HE WAS ALIVE.
HE TOLD THEM HE HAS ALL POWER IN HEAVEN AND ON THE EARTH. JOHN 1: 1, JOHN 1: 14, JOHN 14: 17, JOHN 14: 26, JOHN 15: 26, JOHN 16: 13, 1 PETER 3: 19, REVELATION 19: 13.
JOSHUA TELLS PEOPLE TO LOVE THE LORD AS THEIR GOD, WALK IN HIS WAYS, KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS, LEARN TO GET CLOSER TO JESUS AS THEIR GOD, AND SERVE HIM WITH ALL THEIR HEART AND SOUL. JESUS WENT BACK TO HIS DISCIPLES. WHEN THOMAS SAW JESUS, HE TOUCHED JESUS; THEN HE REALIZED WHO JESUS WAS, CONFESSED HIM AS HIS LORD AND GOD.
WHEN STONED TO DEATH, STEPHEN SAW JESUS AND SAID LORD JESUS RECEIVE MY SPIRIT, SO EVEN STEPHEN CONFESSED JESUS TO BE HIS LORD AND GOD. MANASSEH CONFESSED JESUS AS HIS GOD WHEN HE HUMBLED HIMSELF AND PRAYED TO JESUS AND JESUS ANSWERED HIS PRAYER, JESUS SAID HE WAS GOD.
BIBLE SAYS HE IS ALMIGHTY, THE CHILDREN OF REUBEN AND GAD CONFESSED JESUS AS GOD, BIBLE SAYS PEOPLE OF ISRAEL IS GOD'S CHOSEN PEOPLE, THEY ACCEPT JESUS AS GOD, JOSHUA 22:5, JOSHUA 22:34, 1 CHRONICLES 17:22, 2 CHRONICLES 33:12, 2 CHRONICLES 33:13, ISAIAH 43:12, JOHN 20:28, REVELATION 1:8
GODLY MINISTRIES WORK
MAKE SURE YOUR CALLING AND VISION IS OF GOD, BECAUSE IF YOU ONLY LISTEN TO YOUR THOUGHTS ON WHAT YOU THINK YOUR CALLING OR VISION IS, THEN WILL NOT LAST. KNOW WHAT GOD WANTS YOU TO DO WITH THAT CALLING OR VISION, AND DO WHAT IT TAKES TO ALLOW GOD TO USE IT THROUGH YOU. 2 CHRONICLES 26:5, ACTS 20:24, PHILIPPIANS 3:14, KNOW IT IS GOD DIRECTING YOU, AND NOT YOUR OWN IDEAS, BECAUSE YOU DO NOT ALWAYS THINK THE WAY YOU SHOULD, AND GOD'S THOUGHTS ARE NOT ALWAYS THE SAME AS YOURS.
PRAY FOR GOD'S DIRECTION, BECAUSE THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT YOU CAN TRUST HIM TO GIVE YOU A CLEAR PICTURE IN YOUR MIND ON WHAT HE WANTS YOU TO DO WITH YOUR CALLING OR VISION. PSALMS 143:8, ISAIAH 55:8, PRAY FOR SOULS TO BE SET FREE FROM SATAN, HIS DEMONS AND EVERYTHING THAT COMES WITH THEM. WHEN GOD CALLS YOU TO DO SOMETHING, GO ON FOR HIM, DO NOT DECIDE TO GO BACK INTO THE WORLD, BECAUSE THEN YOU WILL NO LONGER BE WORTHY TO BE IN THAT MINISTRY HE PUT YOU IN. JOEL 2:12-13, LUKE 9:62, PHILIPPIANS 3:13-14.
WHEN YOU MAKE A DECISION, STICK TO IT, NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE SAY OR DO, BECAUSE IF YOU WORRY ABOUT WHAT THEY SAY OR DO, THEN YOU WILL NEVER GET ANYWHERE WITH YOUR MINISTRY, BECAUSE IT IS SHOWING YOU ARE FOLLOWING YOUR FLESH MORE THAN YOU ARE FOLLOWING GOD, AND YOU WILL NOT SUCCEED THAT WAY, AND YOU WILL NOT GET ANYTHING FROM GOD BY DOING THINGS IN THE FLESH, AND YOU WILL GET INTO CONFUSION, WHICH IS NOT OF GOD, AND END UP DOING THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT GOD WANTED YOU TO DO IN THE FIRST PLACE AND END UP QUITTING. 1 CORINTHIANS 14:33, JAMES 1:6-8.
WE MUST DO WHAT GOD WANTS US TO DO, EVEN IF IT IS TESTS TO GO THROUGH, AND WE CANNOT BE AFRAID, BECAUSE IF WE ARE, THEN WE ARE NOT TRUSTING GOD TO HELP US GET THROUGH ALL THE THINGS HE PUTS US THROUGH, OR WE ARE NOT TRUSTING IN THE FACT THAT HE LOVES US ENOUGH TO TAKE AWAY THAT FEAR, AND WE MUST BELIEVE AND HAVE FAITH TO LEARN TO GO ON NO MATTER WHAT. 1 JOHN 4:17-18, WHEN YOU ARE IN A MINISTRY, LEARN TO LIVE A LIFE OF LOVE AT ALL TIMES. KEEP WORKING FOR GOD UNTIL JESUS COMES BACK, BECAUSE GOD CAN IMPROVE WHAT YOU DO FOR HIM MORE AND MORE TO BRING YOUR WORK TO PERFECTION. 2 CHRONICLES 8:16, 1 CORINTHIANS 13:4-7
THE FIRST PART OF THIS WAS STEPS TO TAKE NOW I AM GOING TO SHOW YOU WHAT ELSE YOU NEED TO DO TO MAKE A MINISTRY WORK FROM MY OWN PERSONAL EXPERIENCE. I HAVE LEARNED WHEN IT COMES TO MINISTRY IT IS NOT ABOUT ME, IT IS ABOUT GOD AND OTHERS. MY FOCUS SHOULD BE ON GOD AND PLEASING HIM. I TAKE MY FOCUS OFF MYSELF AND DO WHAT HE WANTS. HE WANTS ME TO RESPECT AUTHORITY HE HAS PUT IN MY LIFE, AND BE READY ANYTIME I AM NEEDED, AND NOT WHEN IT IS CONVENIENT FOR ME.
I OBEY RULES EVEN WHEN I DO NOT LIKE THEM. I GO AN EXTRA MILE TO HELP SOMEONE IN NEED LIKE TALKING WITH SOMEONE UNTIL THEY FEEL BETTER ABOUT THEIR SITUATION OR AT LEAST UNTIL THEY FEEL GOD HAS GIVEN THEM THE ANSWERS THEY NEED. I NEED TO ASK AS MANY QUESTIONS I CAN TO HELP PEOPLE FOCUS ON A SOLUTION TO THEIR PROBLEMS. SOMETIMES IT IS BEST TO LET PEOPLE TALK AND I LISTEN, BECAUSE IF I DO ALL THE TALKING, IT SHOWS THE OTHER PERSON I REALLY DO NOT WANT TO LISTEN TO THEIR PROBLEMS, AND DO NOT WANT TO REALLY BE THERE FOR THEM.
AS I AM COUNSELING THEM I NEED TO MAKE SURE THEY STAY ON THE TOPIC, BECAUSE IF THEY START TALKING ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE THEY MAY NEVER GET HELP THEY NEED, AND THEY GO AWAY STILL UPSET. I NEED TO REALIZE THOUGH, IF THEY DO GET OFF TOPIC, IT MAY BE BECAUSE THEY ARE GETTING TOO STRESSED OUT AND NEED A TIME OUT, SO WHEN I RECOGNIZE THAT, I NEED TO ASK THEM IF THEY WOULD LIKE TO TALK SOME OTHER TIME, BECAUSE WAY I AM LETTING THEM KNOW I CARE ABOUT THEM AND EVEN IF THEY STOP TALKING THEY CAN COME BACK TO ME LATER IF THEY WANT.
I KNOW WHEN GOD PUTS ME IN A MINISTRY, I NEED TO GIVE IT MY ALL, PUT MY FEELINGS AND THOUGHTS ASIDE, AND LET FAITH STEP IN AND TAKE OVER, AND PUT FAITH INTO ACTION, AND LET ACTION CONTINUE, AND NOT JUST DO IT FOR A WHILE AND PICK IT BACK UP WHEN I FEEL LIKE IT. IF I DO NOT HAVE GOD AND LOVE, MY MINISTRY IS DEAD, BECAUSE IT TAKES GOD AND LOVE TO MAKE A MINISTRY WORK, AND WITHOUT GOD AND LOVE, I DO NOT HAVE FAITH. IF I DO NOT HAVE FAITH, THEN I AM DEAD SPIRITUALLY, AND IT TAKES FAITH AND PERSEVERANCE TO LIVE THIS LIFE OF MINISTRY WORK FOR GOD. IF I HAVE AN ATTITUDE OF I GIVE UP, THEN GOD CANNOT HELP ME HELP OTHERS.
I CANNOT HELP SOMEONE ELSE WITH THEIR FAITH IF I DO NOT HAVE IT MYSELF. IF I DO NOT FAITH MYSELF, I AM IN REAL TROUBLE, BECAUSE I CANNOT MAKE IT WITHOUT GOD. I CANNOT MAKE IT WITHOUT LOVE. I CANNOT MAKE IT WITHOUT FAITH. I NEED ALL 3 TO STAY EQUIPPED TO DO WHAT GOD HAS CALLED ME TO DO. IF I GO ON WHAT I THINK, AND ONLY ON WHAT I THINK, THEN I AM BASICALLY SAYING, I AM IN CONTROL, GOD IS NOT, AND THAT IS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE I COULD EVER MAKE. I AM NOT ALL POWERFUL, ALL KNOWING AND ALWAYS PRESENT EVERY WHERE. I DO NOT KNOW IT ALL, GOD DOES, NOT ME. GOD IS IN CONTROL, HE IS GOD, SO IT IS BEST I STEP ASIDE AND LET HIM DO HIS JOB IN ME AND THROUGH ME SO HE CAN HELP OTHERS, I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH IT, EXCEPT TO DO HIS WILL AND HIS WILL ONLY.
LIVE FOR GOD AND OTHERS
I AM A SERVANT OF JESUS. I AM CALLED TO BE A PASTOR AND COUNSELOR. I AM SEPARATED FROM THE WORLD. I AM TO SPREAD THE GOSPEL ABOUT MY LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS. I AM NOT ASHAMED OF MY JESUS. WHEN I SHARE WHO JESUS IS, AND THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT COMES, HE OR SHE RECEIVES JESUS AS THEIR LORD AND SAVIOR EVERY TIME. MY LIFE WAS NOT SO GODLY IN THE PAST. I USED TO BE JUST AS EVIL AS THE WORLD, BUT GOOD NEWS IS THE LORD JESUS CHRIST CHANGED MY LIFE, AND NOW I AM TRYING MORE AND MORE TO LIVE FOR HIM AND RESIST THE THINGS OF SATAN, HIS DEMONS AND SINFUL THINGS OF THIS WORLD.
WHEN IT COMES TO HYPOCRISY I REALIZE I NEED TO MEAN WHAT I SAY, AND DO WHAT I SAY, BECAUSE I AM NOT JUST DOING THINGS FOR PEOPLE, I AM DOING IT FOR GOD ALSO. IT IS BLASPHEMY TOWARDS GOD IF I AM BEING A HYPOCRITE. IF I DO NOT WANT TO BE SHOWN AS A HYPOCRITE, THEN I GOT TO HAVE A CHANGED HEART, AND A CHANGED SPIRIT, BECAUSE MY WORDS DO NOT MEAN NOTHING, IF NOT BACKED UP WITH ACTIONS. I NEED TO GIVE GOD PRAISE WHEN MY WORDS TURN INTO ACTIONS, BECAUSE THEN I AM BEING GUIDED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD'S POWER, AND I REALLY BELIEVE THAT IS THE BEST WAY TO ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE GUIDED.
EVEN THOUGH I MAY BE YOUNGER OR OLDER THAN SOMEONE, IT DOES NOT MEAN THEY ARE MORE OR LESS INTELLIGENT SPIRITUALLY THAN I AM, OR THEY OR I KNOW EVERYTHING. THEY DO NOT KNOW EVERYTHING, AND I DO NOT KNOW EVERYTHING. I KNOW NOTHING WITHOUT GOD. I NEED TO BE LESS PRIDEFUL AND MORE PATIENCE WITH PEOPLE. WHEN IT COMES TO MY SALVATION I THANK GOD I WAS RAISED IN A CHURCH WHERE I WAS TAUGHT YOU ARE NOT SAVED BY YOUR WORKS, ONLY SAVED BY BELIEVING AND KNOWING JESUS AS OUR LORD AND SAVIOR, AND I HAVE KNOWN JESUS MOST OF MY LIFE, HE IS THE BEST PERSON I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE.
MEN HAVE DIED FOR MY PHYSICAL SAFETY AND FREEDOM BUT JESUS DIED AND WAS RAISED FROM THE DEAD FOR MY SPIRIT TO BE SAVED FROM HELL AND SO I COULD HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM, AND SO I COULD HAVE THE MANIFESTATIONS OF ALL MY HEALING, AND SO I COULD BE IN A BEAUTIFUL PLACE CALLED HEAVEN OR AS JESUS CALLED IT PARADISE. I AM LIKE ABRAHAM, I BELIEVE FOR OTHERS EASILY, BUT I AM ALSO LIKE PETER WHO DOUBTED CERTAIN THINGS WOULD HAPPEN AND HE DENIED THEY WOULD, AND LIKE PETER, I NEED TO WORK ON GETTING THE QUESTIONING AND DOUBTS OUT OF MY HEART SO GOD CAN MOVE ON ME AND SO HE DOES NOT HAVE TO BE AS HARSH WITH ME AS HE WAS WITH PETER,
I MEAN IF I WOULD JUST BELIEVE AND KNOW THAT GOD CAN, I WOULD BE ABLE TO CALL THINGS OUT AND THEY WOULD HAPPEN ALL THE TIME, AND THAT WOULD BE VERY PLEASING TO GOD, AND I NEVER WANT TO DISPLEASE MY HEAVENLY FATHER, WHO GAVE HIS LIFE FOR ME SO THAT I WOULD NOT GO TO HELL AND SO I CAN BE WITH HIM FOREVER IN HEAVEN. THANK YOU SO MUCH MY LORD. ROMANS 1-4 I KNOW THAT IF I WOULD JUST TOTALLY TRUST HIM AND NOT JUST WITH OTHER PEOPLE BUT ALSO WITH MYSELF I WOULD HAVE A LOT MORE PEACE WITH GOD AND NOT FEEL LIKE I DISTANT FROM GOD SOMETIMES.
I HAVE LEARNED TO BE PATIENT WITH GOD IN HARD TIMES BECAUSE I KNOW THERE IS ALWAYS A WAY OUT EVEN WHEN PEOPLE THINK THERE IS NOT, AND WHEN I HAVE FAITH KNOWING THERE IS ALWAYS A WAY OUT, I DO NOT HAVE TO FEEL ASHAMED OF MYSELF, BECAUSE I HAVE THE LOVE OF JESUS IN ME THROUGH THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND WHEN I DO NOT ACT LIKE I AM SUPPOSED TO, THAT IS WHEN I NEED TO REMEMBER THAT JESUS DIED BECAUSE OF MY SINS BECAUSE HE DIED AND ROSE FROM THE DEAD, I CAN LEAN ON THAT, AND THAT GIVES ME THE STRENGTH TO GO ON. BEFORE I KNEW JESUS I WAS DEAD IN SIN, SEPARATED FROM GOD, BUT THANK GOD, I DO NOT REMEMBER.
I AM SAVED, I KNOW JESUS AS MY LORD AND SAVIOR, AND WAS BAPTIZED, I KNOW IT IS NOT NECESSARY, BUT I DID IT TO SHOW I WILL DIE, BE BURIED AND RESURRECTED THE SAME WAY AS HE WAS, AND I WENT FROM BEING DEAD IN MY SINS, TO BE ALIVE IN RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND BECAUSE OF THAT, MY LIFE IS NEW BECAUSE OF HIM, AND I WILL LIVE WITH HIM FOREVER WHEN I DIE, AND BECAUSE JESUS IS MY LORD AND SAVIOR I TRY MY BEST TO FIGHT AGAINST THE FLESH BY DOING WHAT JESUS WANTS ME TO DO AND LOVING HIM WITH MY WHOLE HEART, SOUL, MIND AND STRENGTH.
WHEN IT COMES TO SERVING MY JESUS OR SERVING SATAN, WELL MY JESUS IS WORTH GIVING UP MY LIFE FOR, AND SATAN IS NOT WORTH THE BREATH I BREATHE, AND WITHOUT MY JESUS I WOULD NOT BE ALIVE TODAY, BECAUSE IF I DID NOT KNOW JESUS, WHAT THE DOCTORS SAID ABOUT ME, JUST MIGHT HAVE CAME TRUE, THEY SAID I WOULD HAVE DIED IN MY TEENS, BUT HERE I AM 41 YEARS OLD NOW, BECAUSE I HAVE JESUS IN MY LIFE, AND AGAIN WHEN I DIE I WILL BE LIVING WITH HIM FOREVER.
THE BIBLE SAYS I AM SUPPOSED TO OBEY THE LAWS OF THE LAND, I DO OBEY THOSE. I OBEY GOD'S LAWS TOO, IF I WAS MARRIED I WOULD RESPECT MY HUSBAND IN EVERYTHING EXCEPT SIN, UNTIL HE DIED, AND THEN AFTER THAT I WOULD NOT HAVE TO, BECAUSE HE WOULD NOT BE HERE TO TELL ME WHAT TO DO. I WOULD NEVER COMMIT ADULTRY ON HIM, BECAUSE I DO NOT BELIEVE IN CHEATING.
IF MY HUSBAND DIED, I WOULD NOT WANT TO MARRY SOMEONE ELSE BECAUSE I WOULD FEEL LIKE I WAS TOO OLD, AND BESIDES THAT, I NEED TO REMEMBER THAT I AM MARRIED TO GOD FIRST, AND BECAUSE OF THAT, I SHOULD KNOW HOW TO TREAT GOD AND MY HUSBAND THE SAME WAY, AND IF GOD IS NOT IN THE MIDDLE OF IT, THEN THE MARRIAGE IS DEAD ALREADY.
IF WE DO NOT DO THINGS GOD'S WAY, THEN THE LAW WOULD NOT HELP US ANYWAY, BECAUSE IT IS OF THIS WORLD, NOT OF GOD'S WORLD, AND IF YOU DO NOT DO WHAT GOD WANTS, THEN YOU WILL END UP DOING COMPLETELY OPPOSITE OF WHAT GOD WANTS YOU TO DO ALL THE TIME, AND YOU WILL NEVER LIVE BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD. ROMANS 5-7.
SINCE I HAVE BECOME A CHRISTIAN I AM BEGINNING TO UNDERSTAND THAT EVEN WHEN I SIN I AM NOT CONDEMNED, AND EVEN IF I AM NOT CONDEMNED, I WILL STILL BE DISCIPLINED, AND WHEN I DO GET DISCIPLINED, IT HELPS ME TO LIVE MORE IN THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND LESS LIKELY WANT TO SIN, AND NOT ONLY DOES IT STOP ME FROM SINNING, BUT IT HELPS ME LIVE LONGER, BECAUSE I AM BEING PLEASING TO GOD AND HE WANTS TO USE ME WHILE I AM ON THIS EARTH.
IF I WAS NOT PLEASING TO HIM, HE WOULD TAKE ME OUT AND HE WOULD SEND ME TO HELL IF I WAS NOT SAVED, BUT I AM SAVED, SO I DO MY BEST TO KILL THE SIN IN MY LIFE, SO THE SPIRIT OF LIFE CAN CONTINUE LIVING IN ME, AND WHEN THE TIME COMES, AND THE FLESH DIES, MY GOD WILL RAISE IT UP AGAIN DURING THE RAPTURE, AND IF I LET THE SPIRIT OF LIFE RULE MY LIFE, THEN I AM GOD'S CHILD.
SINCE I AM HIS CHILD, I HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR, EVEN THOUGH SOMETIMES I ALLOW MYSELF TO BECOME FEARFUL, BUT WHEN THE SPIRIT OF GOD TELLS ME WHAT TO SAY TO SATAN, THEN I AM NOT SO FEARFUL, BECAUSE GOD KNOWS WHAT I AM THINKING, AND HE KNOWS MY HEART, SO HE IS ABLE TO TELL ME WHAT TO SAY, AND I KNOW BECAUSE HE TELLS ME WHAT TO SAY, THEN THINGS WILL WORK OUT FOR ME, ESPECIALLY SINCE I KNOW I AM CALLED BY HIM TO DO HIS WILL, AND BECAUSE I AM CALLED, GOD GIVES ME ALL THE THINGS THAT I NEED FOR HIM TO USE, AND THE ONLY WAY IT CAN NOT WORK IS IF I STOP DOING IT.
I DID NOT START MY CALLING, BECAUSE I FELT CALLED, I STARTED IT, BECAUSE I BEGAN TO SEE THAT GOD GAVE ME THAT CALLING BY ME BEING ABLE TO SPEAK WITH PEOPLE AND THEM SAYING ALL THE TIME THAT THEY FELT BETTER AFTER SPEAKING WITH ME, AND I DO NOT DO MY CALLING BY MYSELF, BECAUSE THE HOLY SPIRIT IS WITH ME ALL THE TIME AS I PRACTICE MY CALLING, AND THERE HAS BEEN SEVERAL SAVED THROUGH THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AS I HAVE USE MY CALLING, AND THROUGH THE COUNSELING, SATAN HAS BEEN AND IS DEFEATED. SINCE I KNOW THAT SATAN IS DEFEATED.
I NEED TO REALIZE THAT JESUS HAS ALL POWER OVER SATAN WHICH MEANS JESUS IS BLESSED FOREVER, AND WHEN I ACCEPT THAT THEN I AM GOD'S CHILD, BECAUSE I ACCEPT HIM AS LORD AND SAVIOR OF MY LIFE, AND THE LORD CHOSE ME, NOT BECAUSE OF WHAT I DID BUT BECAUSE OF WHAT HE DID.
I AM CALLED HIS COUNSELOR, AND WHEN HE CHOSE ME AS COUNSELOR, I WAS NOT EXACTLY LIVING A PERFECT LIFE, BUT HE HAS MERCY ON ME AND HE KNEW WHAT WAS TRULY DOWN DEEP IN MY HEART AND SPIRIT, AND HE KNEW I WOULD SPREAD HIS GOSPEL WHEREVER I WENT, AND WHEREVER I GO PEOPLE ASK ME WHY I AM NOT SO DOWN AND OUT ABOUT BEING IN A WHEELCHAIR, I JUST TELL THEM, BECAUSE I HAVE JESUS AND I WANT TO GO AND TELL PEOPLE ABOUT HIM, SO I DO NOT HAVE TIME TO FEEL SORRY FOR MYSELF AND WONDER WHY GOD MADE ME THE WAY HE DID, I DO NOT CARE ABOUT THAT AS MUCH AS I CARE ABOUT SEEING SOULS GET SAVED.
IF I CAN SACRIFICE MY HEALING ON THIS EARTH FOR SOMEONE'S SOUL, TO ME THAT IS WORTH MORE THAN ANYTHING IN THE WORLD TO ME, I MEAN YES I WANT TO WALK, BUT I WANT WHAT GOD WANTS THE MOST AND I NEED TO OBEY HIM AND DO HIS WILL, AND LOVE HIM WITH EVERYTHING I HAVE, AND REACH OUT TO AS MANY HURTING AND UNSAVED PEOPLE AS I CAN, BECAUSE WHEN PEOPLE GET SAVED THEY GO FROM BEING SATAN'S CHILD TO BEING GOD'S CHILD, AND THAT REALLY THRILLS ME TO NO END.
WHEN JESUS COMES BACK SATAN WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TOUCH ANY OF GOD'S CHILDREN EVER AGAIN, BECAUSE THE SECOND HE COMES BACK AND HIS CHILDREN ARE TAKEN OUT OF THIS WORLD, THAT IS WHEN SATAN WILL MEET HIS DOOM, AND IT WILL BE ALL OVER, AND THEN I AND OTHERS GET TO FIGHT WITH JESUS, BUT THE ONES WHO THOUGHT THEIR WORKS WOULD SAVE THEM ARE GOING TO BE SENT TO THE LAKE OF FIRE, BUT THE ONES WHO BELIEVED IN JESUS AND ARE NOT ASHAMED WILL GO HEAVEN TO BE WITH JESUS.
I HAVE LEARNED YOU CANNOT OVERRIDE GOD'S DECISIONS, AND SO IF YOU ARE A KIDNAPPER, AND YOU HAVE A CHRISTIAN AS A HOSTAGE, GOD WILL NOT PUT UP WITH THAT TOO LONG, HE WILL FIND A WAY TO SET THAT CHILD OF GOD FREE FROM YOUR GRIP, HE WILL FIND WAYS TO MAKE YOU SO SCARED AND NERVOUS YOU WILL HAVE NO CHOICE, BUT TO LET THEM GO AND SURRENDER YOUR LIFE TO GOD AND THE POLICE, AND ALSO IF A KIDNAPPER, KIDNAPS SOMEONE WHO IS NOT A CHRISTIAN, THEN GOD WILL LET THEM STAY WHERE THEY ARE BECAUSE THEY CHOSE TO FOLLOW THE WORLD AND HE WILL ALLOW REAL BAD THINGS TO HAPPEN TO THEM AND MAYBE DIE, BECAUSE THEY CHOSE TO LIVE AS THE WORLD AND NOT FOR JESUS. ROMANS 8-10 WHEN IT COMES TO GOD'S MERCY AND PROTECTION I WILL NOT BE DESTROYED.
IT IS NOT BECAUSE OF ANYTHING I DID, BUT WHAT JESUS DID FOR ME, AND IF THE UNSAVED WOULD OPEN THEIR HEARTS, THEY WOULD SEE WHAT JESUS CAN DO FOR THEM, AND IF I CHOOSE TO LIVE GODLY I AM GOING TO LIVE GODLY, AND IF THEY DID THE SAME THING, THEIR LIFE WOULD SEEM MUCH BETTER OFF EVEN IF THEY MAY END UP GOING THROUGH SOME TRIALS HERE AND THERE, AND I HAVE BEEN THERE, SO I KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TRYING TO LEARN THE WAYS OF GOD, AND I DO NOT WANT ANYONE TO ACT LIKE IT IS ALL RIGHT IF THEY SEE ME DOING SOMETHING WRONG, NO, I WANT THEM TO CONFRONT ME ON IT, AND TELL ME WHAT TO DO TO STOP IT, SO I CAN STOP LIVING FOR SATAN AND LIVE FOR JESUS, AND THEN IF I DID NOT LISTEN.
I WOULD EXPECT THEM TO SAY ALRIGHT, I AM GOING TO GIVE YOU TO GOD SINCE YOU WILL NOT LISTEN TO ME, BECAUSE NOT ONLY WOULD I BE NOT LISTENING, BUT I WOULD BE LIVING IN UNBELIEF, BY NOT UNDERSTANDING OR BEING BLINDED TO THE WRONG THINGS THAT I AM DOING, CHOOSING TO BE PRIDEFUL ABOUT IT BY DENYING THAT I AM DOING ANY WRONG.
IF I LISTEN TO THE PERSON WHO IS GIVING ME THIS WARNING BY DOING THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT I BEEN DOING, THEN NOT ONLY WILL THAT PERSON SOMETIMES BE WILLING TO HAVE ME IN THEIR LIFE BUT I WILL ALSO NOT FEEL SO DISTANT FROM GOD, AND GOD WILL TAKE EVERYTHING THAT IS NOT OF HIM OUT OF ME, AND WHEN HE CALLED ME INTO THE MINISTRY I HAD A JOB TO DO, BUT I RAN AWAY FOR A WHILE, THEN CAME BACK, BECAUSE I HAVE THE GIFT OF GOD INSIDE ME AND I HAVE CALLING AND I HAVE A PROMISE FROM GOD THAT HE WILL NEVER TAKE THEM FROM ME, SO I DO MY BEST TO USE THOSE GIFTS AND CALLING THE BEST WAY I CAN.
SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE THE RICHEST PERSON IN THE WORLD WHEN GOD USES ME, BECAUSE THE WAY HE USES ME, SOMETIMES CATCHES ME OFFGUARD, AND OTHER TIMES, HE TELLS ME EXACTLY WHAT IS GOING ON, AND THE ONLY REASON I AM A COUNSELOR IS, BECAUSE I WORK THROUGH HIS HOLY SPIRIT, NO OTHER WAY, BECAUSE WHEN I TRY TO DO IT THE OTHER WAY, I MESS UP BAD, AND WHEN I LET THE HOLY SPIRIT HAVE THE SITUATION, THEN NOTHING BAD HAPPENS, AND WE NEED TO TURN IT OVER TO HIM A LOT MORE OFTEN THEN WE DO, SO THAT WE DO NOT EVER GET OURSELVES IN TROUBLE, BECAUSE IT IS HIM THAT KNOWS WHAT TO SAY AND DO AT ALL TIME.
WE DON'T ALWAYS KNOW WHAT TO SAY OR DO, AND ONE OF THE WAYS I DID THAT IS I SACRIFICED MY CHANCE TO BE IN HEAVEN ONCE SO THAT I COULD BE HERE ON THE EARTH TO TELL PEOPLE ABOUT JESUS, AND HOW THEIR MIND AND BODY CHANGE ONCE THEY GET THERE, BECAUSE THE MIND BECOMES TOTALLY CLEAR ON WHAT GOD TELLS IT AND THE BODY IS TOTALLY WHOLE AND ACCEPTABLE AND PERFECT, AND WHILE WE ARE THERE, THERE IS NO DOUBT WHAT GOD'S WILL IS FOR OUR LIVES, AND IF WE HAVE FAITH, WE DO NOT EVEN HAVE TO BE THERE TO HAVE HEAVEN COME DOWN AND THE POWER OF GOD COME DOWN AND FILL US UP, PLUS WHEN YOU ARE SHOWING LOVE TO ANOTHER PERSON, THAT IS ONE WAY WE CAN BRING DOWN HEAVEN TO US.
ANOTHER WAY WE CAN IS THROUGH PRAYER AND WORSHIP TO GOD THROUGH SINGING, AND WE CAN BRING HEAVEN TO OTHERS JUST BY BEING NICE TO THEM, ESPECIALLY OUR ENEMIES, BECAUSE IF WE ARE NICE TO OUR ENEMIES, THEY MAY FEEL LESS LIKELY TO WANT TO HURT US, AND PLUS MAYBE BECOME OUR FRIEND ONE DAY ONCE THEY GET TO KNOW JESUS, AND OTHER WAY WE BRING HEAVEN DOWN IS IF WE ARE HAPPY FOR THOSE WHO HAVE GOOD THINGS HAPPEN TO THEM OR WE CRY WITH THEM WHEN THEY ARE SAD, BECAUSE SOMETIMES WHEN THEY SEE IT HURTS US AS MUCH AS IT HURTS THEM, SOMETIMES IT HELPS THEM UNDERSTAND THAT THINGS ARE NOT SO BAD AS THEY SEEM.
THE BEST WAY THEY CAN SEE IT IS IF YOU ARE TRULY SINCERE, AND IF WE DO OUR BEST TO LIVE IN PEACE WITH ONE ANOTHER, WHATEVER A PERSON DOES AGAINST US, GOD WILL MAKE THEM PAY, SO WE DO NOT HAVE TO DO ANYTHING BAD TO THEM, BECAUSE IF WE JUST LOVE OUR ENEMIES BY DOING GOOD TO THEM, THEN THE BIBLE SAYS IT IS LIKE PUTTING HOT COALS ON THEIR HEAD, AND THAT MEANS YOU ARE DEFEATING SATAN BY USING GOD'S POWER AND LOVE TO WIN THEIR SOUL FOR JESUS. ROMANS 11-12
MY LIFE IS IN GOD'S HANDS AND SO IF I HAVE ANY POWER IN ME AT ALL IT IS FROM GOD NOT FROM ME AND WHATEVER HE WANTS ME TO DO I AM GOING TO DO IT AND NO ONE HAS TO LIKE IT, BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT TO FACE GOD'S ANGER AND I LOVE HIM DEARLY AND I WANT TO PLEASE HIM, AND I KNOW GOD WANTS ME TO RESPECT AND HONOR CERTAIN PEOPLE, SO I DO MY BEST TO DO THAT BY BEING OBEDIENT TO AUTHORITY AND BY SHOWING THEM RESPECT BY RECOGNIZING I AM NOT ANY BETTER THAN THEY ARE.
I ALSO OBEY WHAT GOD SAYS BECAUSE I LOVE HIM, NOT TO KEEP MY SALVATION, AND ALSO WHEN IT COMES TO LOVING SOMEONE, WE DO NOT THINK UP BAD THINGS TO DO TO THEM JUST BECAUSE WE DO NOT LIKE THEM, AND IF YOU WANT PEOPLE TO BELIEVE YOU ARE SAVED THEN YOU NEED TO SHOW LOVE TO THEM AND NOTHING ELSE, AND BY DOING THAT, THEY JUST MIGHT GET SAVED TOO, AND THE ONE THING WE NEED TO NEVER FORGET IS THAT WE ARE A LIGHT IN THE WORLD, AND WE NEED TO LET THAT LIGHT SHINE, BY SHARING JESUS, AND WE NEED TO DO OUR BEST TO LIVE LIKE JESUS DID, BECAUSE JESUS ALLOWED PEOPLE TO ABUSE HIM AND EVENTUALLY HIS FLESH DIED PHYSICALLY, BUT HE ALSO KILLED HIS FLESH SPIRITUALLY BY NOT GIVING IN TO THIS WORLD'S TEMPTATIONS, THEREFORE HE NEVER SINNED.
I AM LEARNING TO NOT TO ARGUE WITH PEOPLE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE THE SAME WAY I DO, BUT I DO MY BEST TO SHOW THEM IN SCRIPTURE THAT WHAT THEY BELIEVE IS NOT RIGHT AND GOD DOES THE REST AND IF THEY SEE THE TRUTH THEY ACCEPT JESUS AS LORD AND SAVIOR, THEN JESUS ENDS UP BEING MINE AND THEIR LORD AND SAVIOR, AND WHEN WE BOTH DIE, OR WHEN JESUS COMES BACK, WE WILL BOTH GIVE AN ACCOUNT OF THE THINGS WE DID WHILE WE WAS ON THE EARTH, AND BECAUSE OF THAT, WE NEED TO WATCH WHAT WE DO AND SAY TO OTHERS. WHEN IT COMES TO HOW WE BELIEVE, SOME PEOPLE BELIEVE SOMETHING IS WRONG AND OTHERS THINK IT IS NOT WRONG, SO WE HAVE TO JUST DO WHAT WE BELIEVE IS RIGHT AND STAY AWAY FROM THINGS WE BELIEVE IS WRONG.
WHEN YOU TELL SOMEONE ABOUT JESUS DO NOT LET SOMEONE ELSE SAY SOMETHING BAD ABOUT IT, BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING BAD ABOUT IT, THERE IS ONLY RIGHTEOUSNESS, PEACE, AND JOY IN THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND THOSE WHO ACCEPT JESUS AND SERVE HIM ARE ACCEPTABLE TO GOD, AND IF WE ACCEPT THE GOOD THINGS OF GOD THEN WE CAN HELP LIFT EACH OTHER UP, NOT TEAR EACH OTHER DOWN.
IF YOU TRY TO GIVE TOO MUCH ADVICE TOO SOON, YOU MIGHT CAUSE THAT OTHER PERSON TO GET EVEN MORE UPSET AND LEAD THEM AWAY FROM JESUS INSTEAD OF TOWARDS HIM, AND WE DO NOT NEED TO BRING CONDEMNATION ON THEM EITHER, BECAUSE THAT WILL DEFINITELY DRIVE THEM AWAY, AND MAKE THEM FEEL A LOT WORSE, SO BY NOT CONDEMNING THEM, THEN THEY START TO REALIZE THEY CAN CHANGE, IT IS NEVER TOO LATE, BUT IT WOULD BE TOO LATE IF THEY CHOSE TO HAVE DOUBT INSTEAD OF FAITH IN JESUS. ROMANS 13-14
MATURE CHRISTIANS NEED TO HELP THE BABY CHRISTIANS, AND NOT TO MAKE OURSELVES FEEL GOOD, BUT TO PLEASE GOD. WE NEED TO LEARN HOW TO BE GOOD TO PEOPLE SO THEIR SPIRIT CAN BE LIFTED UP AND GET ALONG WITH EACH OTHER SO GOD CAN BE POWERFUL BETWEEN THE TWO OF THEM. JESUS ACCEPTED WHO WE WERE BEFORE WE KNEW HIM AND HE FORGAVE US, AND WE NEED TO BE THAT WAY, WE NEED TO DECIDE TO FORGIVE PEOPLE BEFORE THEY EVEN HURT US.
IF PEOPLE ARE WILLING, CORRECT THEM IN LOVE, AND IF THEY ACCEPT IT AND ARE WILLING TO CHANGE THEN YOU KNOW THE HOLY SPIRIT IS WORKING IN THEIR LIVES, AND THEN THEY ALSO GO AND TELL THE TRUTH TO OTHERS. WHEN WE MEET SOMEONE FACE TO FACE WE NEED TO GREET EACH OTHER AND NOT BE RUDE. WHEN IT COMES TO THE WAY WE BELIEVE WE NEED TO STAY AWAY FROM FALSE TEACHING AND STAY AWAY FROM THE PEOPLE WHO TEACH IT BECAUSE IF WE BE FRIENDS WITH SOMEONE WHO BELIEVES SOMETHING FALSE WE ARE SAYING THAT WHAT THEY BELIEVE IS ALL RIGHT WHEN IT IS NOT AT ALL, AND NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THEY DO NOT KNOW THE REAL JESUS AND WILL TRY TO CONFUSE YOU, SO STAY AWAY SO THAT GOD CAN HELP YOU DEFEAT SATAN'S ATTACKS, SO YOU HAVE THE VICTORY. ROMANS 15-16
SICK WAYS TO KILL A BABY
I AM GOING TELL YOU ABOUT SOMETHING I FEEL VERY STRONG ABOUT. I BELIEVE ABORTION IS WRONG, BECAUSE WHETHER THE BABY IS AT FULL TERM OR STARTING OUT, IT IS A HUMAN BEING. HE OR SHE IS CALLED A BABY, EVEN THOUGH DOCTORS CALL IT A FETUS. THE BABY IS ALIVE, HE OR SHE DESERVES A CHANCE TO LIVE. ALL HUMAN BEINGS DESERVE A CHANCE TO LIVE EVEN IF THEY ARE BORN WITHOUT ARMS OR LEGS, OR CANNOT SPEAK, OR IN A COMA, HELPLESS, UNAWARE, UNMOVING, AND IT IS WRONG TO MURDER PERIOD.
HERE IS THE DEFINITION OF AN ABORTION, TERMINATION OF A PREGNANCY. HERE IS WAYS ABORTIONS IS DONE. BABY IS DELIVERED FEET FIRST. HEAD IS LEFT INSIDE BIRTH CANAL. A SHARP INSTRUMENT IS USED TO PUNCTURE REAR OF THE SKULL AT THE BASE AND THE BRAINS ARE SUCKED OUT. ONCE DEAD, THE BABY IS FULLY DELIVERED. ABORTIVE PROCEDURE WHERE THE ABORTIONIST INSERTS A CURVED KNIFE INTO THE PLACENTA AND CUTS THE BABY UP INTO PIECES BEFORE IT IS SUCTIONED OUT.
DONE IN THE FIRST TRIMESTER. AN ABORTIVE PROCEDURE WHERE AN ABORTIONIST INSERTS A PLIERS-LIKE INSTRUMENT INTO THE UTERUS. THE ABORTIONIST THEN GRABS WHATEVER PART OF THE BABY IT COMES IN CONTACT WITH. THEN, BY TWISTING AND PULLING, BABY IS DISMEMBERED, KILLED, PULLED FROM THE WOMB. A PILL TAKEN AFTER CONCEPTION THAT STOPS THE ABSORPTION OF PROGESTERONE, A HORMONE NECESSARY FOR SUSTAINING PREGNANCY. TAKEN WITH MISOPROSTOL, IT CAUSES THE UTERUS TO CONTRACT AND EJECT THE NEWLY CONCEIVED BABY.
AN ABORTIVE METHOD WHERE ALL THE BABY IS DELIVERED EXCEPT THE HEAD. WITH ITS BODY OUTSIDE OF THE VAGINAL CANAL, THE DOCTOR THEN USES A SHARP INSTRUMENT TO PIERCE THE BACK OF THE SKULL OF THE BABY AND SCRAMBLE THE BRAINS, KILLING IT. THEN THE BABY IS FULLY DELIVERED. AN ABORTIVE METHOD OF REDUCING THE NUMBER OF BABIES IN THE WOMB (TWINS, TRIPLETS, ETC.) BY INJECTING A POISON INTO THE HEART OF ONE OR MORE OF THE BABIES WHILE STILL IN THE WOMB.
AN ABORTIVE METHOD WHERE A HIGHLY CONCENTRATED SALT SOLUTION IS INJECTED INTO THE PLACENTA. THE BABY TAKES THE SALT INTO THE LUNGS AS WELL AS SWALLOWING IT. AFTER MORE THAN AN HOUR, THE BABY DIES AND THE MOTHER DELIVERS THE BODY A DAY OR TWO LATER.
IF YOU WANT TO KILL A BABY LIKE THIS, THEN I WOULD SAY YOU ARE COMPLETELY HEARTLESS AND HAVE NO RESPECT FOR A HUMAN BEINGS LIFE, WHETHER IT IS IN THE WOMB OR OUT, AND IF I COULD MAKE IT POSSIBLE I WOULD MAKE ABORTION ILLEGAL, AND DESTROY ALL THE ABORTION CLINICS IN THE WORLD.
I AM VERY THANKFUL MY OWN MOTHER, EVEN THOUGH SHE WAS ONLY 17 YEARS OLD, WHEN I WAS BORN, SHE DID NOT GET AN ABORTION WHEN SHE FOUND OUT THAT I HAD SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY BACK AND LEGS, AND SHE RAISED ME, EVEN THOUGH I DID HAVE TO STAY WITH MY GRANDMA FOR A YEAR AND A HALF WHEN I WAS 5 YEARS OLD, BECAUSE I HAD SOME PHYSICAL PROBLEMS SHE WAS UNABLE TO DEAL WITH EMOTIONALLY, BUT SHE TOOK ME BACK WHEN I WAS 6 AND A HALF. I HAVE LIVED WITH HER EVER SINCE. I HAVE NEVER HAD THE DESIRE TO LIVE WITH MY GRANDMA AGAIN.
GOD'S WORD IS TRUSTWORTHY
THE OLD TESTAMENT WRITINGS WERE PASSED DOWN FROM ONE GENERATION TO ANOTHER BY USING THE SKIN OF CLEAN ANIMALS AS MATERIAL FOR SCROLLS. THE ANCIENT HEBREW MANUSCRIPTS WOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN WRITTEN ON AN UNCLEAN ANIMAL'S SKIN, SUCH AS A PIG. THE ORIGINAL THIRTY-NINE BOOKS OF THE OLD TESTAMENT WERE COMPLETED BEFORE CHRIST. THE ORIGINAL HEBREW MANUSCRIPTS WERE COMPLETED AND COMPILED AROUND 500 BC.
IN THE FIRST CENTURY, THE NEW TESTAMENT WAS FIRST RECORDED IN THE GREEK LANGUAGE ON PAPYRUS. THE NEW TESTAMENT WAS COMPLETED IN THE FIRST CENTURY AD AND WAS WRITTEN IN GREEK AND PRESERVED ON PAPYRUS, A MATERIAL MADE FROM A REED LIKE PLANT. THESE MANUSCRIPTS WERE TIED TOGETHER MUCH LIKE THE BOOKS OF TODAY, AS OPPOSED TO THE OLD TESTAMENT PRESERVED IN A SCROLL. JOHN WYCLIFFE WAS THE FIRST PERSON TO TRANSLATE THE BIBLE INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. THE FIRST ENGLISH MANUSCRIPTS WERE PRODUCED IN THE 1380'S BY JOHN WYCLIFFE,
AN OXFORD PROFESSOR AND THEOLOGIAN WHO TRANSLATED THE SCRIPTURES BY HAND. WYCLIFFE TRANSLATED THE ENGLISH VERSION OF THE BIBLE FROM THE LATIN VULGATE. WYCLIFFE'S ONLY AVAILABLE SCRIPTURE WAS THE LATIN VULGATE, AND HE TRANSLATED DOZENS OF COPIES INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. INFURIATING THE POPE OF THAT TIME. FORTY FOUR YEARS AFTER HIS DEATH, THE POPE ORDERED WYCLIFFE'S BONES TO BE DUG UP AND SCATTERED IN A RIVER. THE FIRST BIBLE TO BE PRINTED WAS A LATIN TRANSLATION IN GERMANY.
IN 1455 AD, JOHANN GUTENBERG INVENTED THE PRINTING PRESS AND PRODUCED THE FIRST PRINTED COPY OF THE BIBLE IN A LATIN LANGUAGE IN MAINZ, GERMANY. THE LATIN VULGATE TRANSLATION HAD BECOME CORRUPT OVER THE YEARS. AN OXFORD PROFESSOR NAMED THOMAS LINACRE LEARNED GREEK AND STUDIED THE NEW TESTAMENT IN THE ORIGINAL GREEK LANGUAGE, DETERMINING THAT THE LATIN VULGATE NO LONGER PRESERVED THE TRUE GOSPEL. AT THIS TIME THE ROMAN CHURCH STILL THREATENED TO PERSECUTE ANYONE READING SCRIPTURE IN ANY LANGUAGE OTHER THAN LATIN. THE FIRST GREEK TO ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF THE BIBLE WAS ACCOMPLISHED BY AN OXFORD PROFESSOR.
IN 1496, JOHN COLET, AN OXFORD PROFESSOR, WAS THE FIRST MAN TO TRANSLATE THE NEW TESTAMENT FROM THE ORIGINAL GREEK INTO ENGLISH FOR HIS STUDENTS. A NEW AND NON-CORRUPT LATIN TRANSLATION OF THE BIBLE WAS PRODUCED IN 1516. THE SCHOLAR ERASMUS AND A PRINTER NAMED JOHN FROBEN PUBLISHED THE FIRST GREEK-LATIN PARALLEL NEW TESTAMENT USING LATIN THAT WAS NOT PART OF THE CORRUPT VULGATE TRANSLATION. ERASMUS BELIEVED THAT THE LATIN VULGATE WAS INACCURATE AND SUPPORTED THE NEED TO TRANSLATE THE NEW TESTAMENT FROM THE ORIGINAL GREEK. MARTIN LUTHER NAILED A LETTER OF CONTENTION ON A ROMAN CHURCH DOOR AND PUBLISHED THE NEW TESTAMENT INTO THE GERMAN LANGUAGE.
MARTIN LUTHER TRANSLATED THE NEW TESTAMENT INTO GERMAN USING THE GREEK-LATIN PARALLEL NEW TESTAMENT IN 1516 WHICH WAS PUBLISHED IN 1522, AFTER HE NAILED HIS THESES OF CONTENTION TO THE WITTENBERG CHURCH DOOR, DECLARING HIS INTOLERANCE FOR THE ROMAN CHURCH'S CORRUPTION. WILLIAM TYNDALE WAS THE FIRST MAN TO PRINT THE NEW TESTAMENT INTO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. HEAD OF THE REFORMATION MOVEMENT, TYNDALE PRINTED THE NEW TESTAMENT IN 1526 WITH THE HELP OF MARTIN LUTHER. THE GENEVA BIBLE WAS PRINTED IN 1560 AD AND WAS THE FIRST TO USE CHAPTERS AND NUMBERED VERSES.
THE GENEVA BIBLE WAS PRINTED AS A RESULT OF REFORMER EXILED REFUGEES WHO GATHERED UNDER THE PROTECTION OF THE GENEVA CHURCH IN SWITZERLAND. THE GENEVA BIBLE HAD MORE INFLUENCE ON THE KING JAMES BIBLE THAN ANY OTHER FORMER TRANSLATION. THE GENEVA BIBLE RETAINED UP TO NINETY PERCENT OF TYNDALE'S ORIGINAL VERSION AND STUDIES PROVE IT TO BE THE LARGEST INFLUENCE ON THE KING JAMES EDITION. THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH PRINTED THEIR OWN ENGLISH VERSION OF THE BIBLE IN 1582. IN DEFEAT OF USING ONLY THE VULGATE LATIN BIBLE AS THE AUTHORITATIVE BIBLE,
THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH PRODUCED THEIR OWN OFFICIAL ROMAN CATHOLIC ENGLISH TRANSLATION USING THE LATIN VULGATE, WHICH HAD BEEN PROVEN TO BE CORRUPT 75 YEARS EARLIER. THE OFFICIAL ROMAN CATHOLIC ENGLISH TRANSLATION WAS KNOWN AS THE RHEIMS NEW TESTAMENT. THE KING JAMES BIBLE IS REFERRED TO AS THE TRANSLATION TO END ALL TRANSLATIONS.
THE KING JAMES TRANSLATION WAS THE RESULT OF THE WORK OF FIFTY DIFFERENT SCHOLARS WHO USED THE TYNDALE TRANSLATION, THE GREAT BIBLE, THE GENEVA BIBLE, AND OTHER PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED TRANSLATIONS, INCLUDING THE ORIGINAL GREEK AND HEBREW, TO PRODUCE AN EXCELLENT TRANSLATION UNDER THE REIGN OF KING JAMES I OF ENGLAND. THE KING JAMES VERSION IS THE MOST PRINTED BOOK IN WORLD HISTORY. THE KING JAMES VERSION HAS HAD MORE THAN ONE BILLION COPIES IN PRINT. SO YOU CAN SEE FROM ALL THIS INFORMATION THAT THE BIBLE IS TRUSTWORTHY.
DEFEND CHRISTIAN DOCTRINE IN TRUTH
WE NEED TO DEFEND THE TRUTH OF CHRISTIAN DOCTRINES, BECAUSE WE NEED TO LEARN WHAT IS FALSE, SO WE DO NOT END UP IN SOME KIND OF CULT, OR ANY FALSE DOCTRINE WHERE SATAN'S LIES ARE, BECAUSE WE WILL END UP IN HELL FOR NOT LISTENING TO REAL TRUTH OF GOD'S LIVING AND WRITTEN WORD. WE CAN DEFEND WOMEN AS PASTORS BY TELLING PEOPLE, THEY CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHICH STRENGTHENS THEM. (PHILIPPIANS 4 : 13) FOR WITH GOD NOTHING SHALL BE IMPOSSIBLE (LUKE 1 : 37).
JESUS SAID, THE THINGS WHICH ARE IMPOSSIBLE WITH MEN ARE POSSIBLE WITH GOD. (LUKE 18 : 27). WE CAN HELP THEM STOP LISTENING TO SATAN OR HIS DEMONS WHEN THEY LIE TO THEM, AND THEY TELL THEM THAT THEY CANNOT DO THIS OR THAT, BECAUSE IT IS LIES FROM HELL, IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN AND IT ALWAYS WILL BE FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIFE FOREVER. WE CAN DEFEND OUR BELIEF IN THE GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WHEN PEOPLE SAY THE GIFTS ARE NOT FOR TODAY BY TELLING THEM ALL THE PHYSICAL HEALING THAT HAVE HAPPENED IN OUR LIFE, WE CAN SHOW THEM SCARS FROM WHERE THE HEALING HAPPENED IN OUR LIFE.
WHEN THE DOCTORS TOLD US WE WOULD NOT LIVE PAST A CERTAIN AGE AND WE END UP LIVING A LOT LONGER. WE HAVE BELIEVED IN HEALING ALL OUR LIFE AND WE WILL ALWAYS BELIEVE IN HEALING UNTIL THE DAY WE DIE, ACCORDING TO THE DOCTORS WE SHOULD BE DEAD. WE CAN DEFEND WHAT WE BELIEVE WHEN SOMEONE SAYS THAT GOD DOES NOT LOVE THEM AND WE CAN TURN AROUND AND TELL THEM YES HE DOES AND TELL THEM, FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE (JOHN 3 : 16).
WE CAN ALSO TELL THEM, BUT EVEN THE VERY HAIRS OF YOUR HEAD ARE ALL NUMBERED. FEAR NOT THEREFORE: YE ARE OF MORE VALUE THAN MANY SPARROWS. (LUKE 12 : 7) WE CAN ALSO SAY, BUT GOD COMMENDS HIS LOVE TOWARD US, IN THAT, WHILE WE WERE YET SINNERS, CHRIST DIED FOR US (ROMANS 5 : 8). WHEN PEOPLE TELL US SATAN LOVES THEM AND WE CAN SAY NO HE DOES NOT, BECAUSE THE BIBLE SAYS, THE THIEF COMES NOT, BUT FOR TO STEAL, AND TO KILL, AND TO DESTROY, BUT JESUS COME SO THEY WOULD HAVE LIFE, AND HAVE IT TO THE FULLEST. (JOHN 10 : 10)
THESE ARE SOME WAYS WE DEFEND WHAT WE BELIEVE AND WHY WE BELIEVE IT. WE SHOW OTHERS HOW TO DO IT. WE DEFEND WHAT WE BELIEVE, AND WHY WE BELIEVE IT, BECAUSE OUR GOAL, AND WHAT EVERY BORN AGAIN BELIEVER'S GOAL IS TO SNATCH AWAY FROM SATAN EVERY SOUL AS WE CAN AND HELP THEM GIVE THEIR LIVES OVER TO JESUS. WE NEED TO TAKE THE TIME TO STUDY, SO WE CAN GIVE ANSWER TO PEOPLE WHEN THEY ASK US QUESTIONS. WE CANNOT DEFEND OUR FAITH IF WE DO NOT KNOW GOD'S WORD, AND WE NEED TO PRAY FOR GOD TO OPEN MINDS TO TRUTH OF HIS WORD. WE NEED TO ASK THE HOLY SPIRIT TO TELL US WHAT WE ARE TO SAY.
WE NEED TO ASK THE HOLY SPIRIT TO BRING UNDERSTANDING WHAT IS BEING SAID. IF WE DO NOT PRAY BEFORE WE BEGIN TO DEFEND GOD'S WORD THEN WE ARE TRYING TO DO IT BY OURSELVES WITHOUT THE HOLY SPIRIT HELP AND THAT LEADS US INTO THE SIN CALLED PRIDE AND THAT WILL ONLY DESTROY OUR LIFE. APOLOGETICS MUST BE DONE IN GENTLENESS AND LOVE OR MEEKNESS AND FEAR AND IN GOD'S WORD THE WORD FEAR MEANS RESPECT. THE PURPOSE FOR DEFENDING WHAT WE BELIEVE AND WHY WE BELIEVE IT IS TO HELP PEOPLE KNOW WHAT THEY BELIEVE AND WHY THEY BELIEVE IT SO THEY WILL NOT BELIEVE SOMETHING THAT IS FALSE OR GET INTO SOME KIND OF CULT WHERE SATAN CAN CONTROL AND MANIPULATE THE PERSON WHO IS IN THE CULT, AND GOD'S WORD CAN BE TRUSTED, AND IF THE WORD OF GOD CANNOT BE TRUSTED THEN WE HAVE NOTHING TO STAND ON AND IF WE HAVE NOTHING TO STAND ON THEN WE ARE JUST GOING TO LIVE IN CONFUSION THE REST OF OUR LIFE AND ONCE WE ARE DEAD WE END UP IN HELL.
IN ORDER FOR US TO STAND ON THE BIBLE, WE NEED TO KEEP AN OPEN MIND TO WHAT THE BIBLE IS TELLING US. WHEN WE STUDY THE WHOLE BIBLE, WE NEED TO KEEP STUDYING IT, SO THE HOLY SPIRIT CAN SPEAK TO US TO HELP US CHANGE THINGS WE CONSIDER SIN. WE NEED TO ALLOW GOD TO TAKE IT OUT OF OUR LIFE. WE NEED TO SHOW HOW WE CAN TRUST WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS, SO PEOPLE CAN SEE WHO JESUS IS, BELIEVE IN HIS DEATH, BURIAL, AND RESURRECTION, SO THEY CAN BE BORN AGAIN AND LIVE THEIR LIFE FOR JESUS. FOR THE NEW BORN AND MATURE CHRISTIANS IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW HE SAID HE WOULD COME BACK WITH THE SAME BODY THAT HE HAD BEFORE HE DIED, AND HE DID NOT JUST SAY IT, AND HE SHOWED HIMSELF TO PEOPLE, AND HE WAS NO LONGER IN THE TOMB AND IT WAS PROPHESIED IN THE OLD TESTAMENT.
IF JESUS RESURRECTION HAD NOT HAPPENED THEN IT WOULD SHOW TO BE A HUGE LIE AND PEOPLE WOULD NOT SAVED FROM SATAN, HIS DEMONS, OR HELL. JESUS HAD TO BE THE FINAL SACRIFICE FOR ALL OUR SIN SO WE COULD GO TO HEAVEN AND BE WITH JESUS FOREVER AND EVER. AS PEOPLE STUDY THE WORD OF GOD THEY FIND OUT MANY PROPHECIES HAVE ALREADY HAVE BEEN FULFILLED.
ARCHEOLOGY HAS HELPED PROVE THE WORD OF GOD TO BE TRUSTWORTHY BY SHOWING IN 1930'S THE WALLS OF JERICHO WERE PUSHED OUT NOT IN LIKE PEOPLE WANT TO BELIEVE, AND I WOULD SAY THAT PEOPLE NEED TO GET THEIR FACTS STRAIGHT ON THAT ONE. WHEN IT COMES TO CHRISTIANITY, IF WE DO NOT TELL PEOPLE ABOUT JESUS THEN SATAN WILL END UP RUINING THE HUMAN RACE WITH UGLY AND DISGUSTING EVIL SINS, AND THEY WILL RUN LIKE CRAZY AND THEY WILL DESTROY EVERYTHING WE HAVE TRIED TO BUILD IN PEOPLE TO HELP SAVE THEM FROM.
IT IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT TO START TELLING CHILDREN ABOUT JESUS BECAUSE ALL EVIL OR GOOD IN THIS WORLD STARTS WITH CHILDREN AS THEY ARE GROWING UP. IF YOU WANT THEM NOT IN JAIL OR PRISON, RAISE THEM RIGHT. I WILL TELL YOU WHY. IT DEPENDS ON HOW THEY ARE RAISED, AND AS THEY ARE GROW UP WITH PARENTS WHO ARE UNSAVED THEN THEY ARE UNSAVED OR THEY GROW UP WITH PARENTS WHO ARE SAVED AND THEY ARE SAVED AND THEY LEARN ALL ABOUT THE TRUTH OF GOD'S WORD, THEY LEARN HOW TO BEHAVE OR DO RIGHT THINGS FOR THEIR PARENTS OR FOR THEIR HEAVENLY FATHER.
IN NON CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS CHILDREN ARE NOT ALLOWED TO PRAY OR STUDY THE WORD OF GOD, AND I THINK THAT IS A BIG SHAME ON THE ADULTS IN THIS WORLD FOR NOT LETTING THEM. EVEN SOME CHILDREN GET PUNISHED FOR DOING IT AND THAT IS WHY I BELIEVE THEY NEED TO BE IN A CHRISTIAN SCHOOL BECAUSE CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS WOULD ENCOURAGE IT GLADLY AND ENCOURAGE THE CHILDREN TO DO IT MORE AND MORE EVERY DAY, THAT IS WHAT ALL ADULTS SHOULD BE DOING, ENCOURAGING CHILDREN TO NOT BE AFRAID TO BE WHO GOD WANTS THEM TO BE, TO DO WHAT GOD WANTS THEM TO DO, NOT WHAT SATAN OR EVIL MEN AND WOMAN WANT THEM TO DO.
THERE IS A FEW THINGS WE CAN DO TO HELP ADULT AND CHILDREN GROW UP IN THE LORD AND THAT IS WE NEED TO REMIND THEM THAT STUDYING GOD'S WORD AND MEMORIZING SCRIPTURE HELPS THEM KNOW WHAT CHAPTER WHICH VERSE TO LOOK AT AND WHAT SOURCE OF INFORMATION NEEDS TO BE GIVEN OUT TO PEOPLE WHO WANT TO BE A GOOD WITNESS TO SOMEONE, THEN IF YOU GO TO OTHER SOURCES OF INFORMATION THEY COULD BE TRUE OR FALSE, SO WE NEED TO BE CAREFUL WHEN STUDYING SOMETHING.
ONE OF THE BEST WAYS TO BE A GOOD WITNESS IS TO LEARN TO BE PATIENT ENOUGH TO SIT AND LISTEN, AND RESPOND AFTER THE OTHER PERSON IS DONE TALKING, BECAUSE IF YOU INTERRUPT THEM THEN YOU WILL NOT KNOW WHAT TO SAY TO THEM OR YOU END UP SAYING THE WRONG THINGS AND A BIG ARGUMENT OR FIGHT STARTS OR THE OTHER PERSON WALKS AWAY OR YOU BOTH WALK AWAY WITH NOTHING ACCOMPLISHED, PLUS IF YOU LISTEN YOU WILL BE ABLE TO TELL IF THEY ARE TELLING YOU THE TRUTH OR NOT.
YOU NEED TO KNOW WHY THEY ARE TELLING YOU WHAT THEY ARE TELLING YOU, BECAUSE YOU NEED TO KNOW WHETHER WHAT THEY ARE TELLING YOU IS GOING TO HURT THEIR FUTURE OR NOT AND YOU ALSO NEED TO FOUND OUT WHAT THEIR PURPOSE IS IN WHY THEY ARE TELLING YOU THE THINGS THAT THEY ARE TELLING YOU, AND PLUS IF YOU INTERRUPT, THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN LEARN ANYTHING FROM THAT PERSON OR ANYONE ELSE.
WHEN IT COMES TO BIBLE HERE IS THE BASIC BELIEFS A BABY CHRISTIAN NEEDS TO FIND OUT AND THAT IS GOD CREATED EVERYTHING, THE PLANETS, EARTH, ALL PLANTS AND ANIMALS, AND MEN, WOMEN, CHILDREN. SIN CAME INTO THE WORLD THROUGH DISOBEDIENCE OF ADAM AND EVE IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN WHEN THEY ATE FRUIT OF TREE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL, BECAUSE OF THEM, ANYONE WHO GET BORN INTO THIS WORLD IS BORN SPIRITUALLY DEAD. SALVATION ONLY COMES THROUGH JESUS. THE TRINITY OR GODHEAD IS ONE GOD IN THREE PERSONS.
THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS, THE RAPTURE OF ALL THE SAINTS, JESUS REIGNS FOR 1, 000 YEARS, AND THE SAINTS COME WITH HIM. THE GREAT WHITE THRONE JUDGMENT. HEAVEN AND HELL ARE BOTH ETERNAL. THE VIRGIN BIRTH. THE DEITY OF JESUS CHRIST. THE BIBLE IS THE PERFECT WORD OF GOD.
THE BODILY RESURRECTION OF JESUS. ONENESS PENTECOSTALS AND APOSTOLICS BELIEVE THAT THERE IS ONLY JESUS WHEN IT COMES TO THE GODHEAD JUST BECAUSE THE BIBLE SAYS HE IS THE FULLNESS OF THE GODHEAD BODILINESS, THE ONE THINK THEY FORGOT TO NOTICE OR IGNORE WAS THE PART THAT SAYS HE WAS THE FULLNESS BODILY, NOT SPIRITUALLY, BUT BODILY, IT SAID NOTHING ABOUT HIS SPIRIT, ONLY HIS BODY, SO EVEN THOUGH HE IS THE FULLNESS OF THE GODHEAD BODILY. HE ALSO HAS A SPIRIT, WHICH MEANS, HE IS ALSO GOD, AND GOD IS SPIRIT, AND GOD THE FATHER IS SPIRIT, AND HE HAS A HOLY SPIRIT, SO WHAT THE ONENESS PENTECOSTALS AND APOSTOLICS BELIEVE IS FALSE, BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE FATHER, THE SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT TO MAKE THE GODHEAD.
PLUS WHEN IT COMES TO THE GODHEAD WOULD HAVE NO SALVATION IF THE FATHER WAS LEFT OUT OR IF THE HOLY IS LEFT OUT. IF THE FATHER DID NOT LOVE US, HE WOULD HAVE HAD HIS SON SUFFERING AND DIE ON A CROSS AND THE HOLY SPIRIT WOULD NOT EVEN TRY TO SPEAK TO US AND WE WOULD ALL END UP IN HELL, BECAUSE IF PERSON OF THE GODHEAD DOES NOT DO THEIR JOB THEN WE WILL STAY CONDEMNED, FIRST JOHN FIVE SEVEN SAYS THERE ARE IN HEAVEN, THE FATHER, THE WORD, WHICH IS JESUS THE SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT, WHICH IS THE SPIRIT OF GOD, IT SAYS THEY ARE ALL ONE, THEY ARE ONE IN THOUGHT, WILL AND PURPOSE.
MOST PEOPLE SEEM TO SAY THAT HE IS THE SON OF GOD, AND PEOPLE SAY HE IS JUST A PROPHET, BUT HE IS MUCH MORE THAN THAT, HE IS SON OF MAN, HIGH PRIEST, KING OF KINGS, LORD OF LORDS, GOOD SHEPHERD, LAMB OF GOD, SAVIOR, WONDERFUL COUNSELOR, GOD, PRINCE OF PEACE, LION OF JUDAH, ELDER BROTHER, HEALER, FIRST AND THE LAST, BEGINNING AND END, ALPHA AND OMEGA, ANCIENT OF DAYS, OUR DEMON BUSTER, AND WHEN WE USE HIS NAME DEMONS FLEE.
JESUS WAS SO POWER THAT PEOPLE WERE THREATENING HIS LIFE BECAUSE JESUS WAS DOING THINGS THAT NO OTHER MAN COULD DO WITHOUT THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND LATER ON AFTER HE WAS RISEN FROM THE DEAD HE ALSO SAID HE IS CREATOR, ALPHA AND OMEGA, BEGINNING AND THE END, FIRST AND THE LAST, ALMIGHTY, HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL AND HEAVEN AND EARTH, REDEEMER, LORD OF HOSTS, CREATOR OF EVERYTHING, PLUS HE IS GOD OF HOSTS, GOD OF ALL FLESH.
THE BIBLE SAYS THAT HE IS THE INVISIBLE GOD, AND ALL THINGS WERE CREATED BY HIM IN HEAVEN AND ON THE THE EARTH, AND HE DID IT FOR HIMSELF, AND HE WILL ALWAYS COME FIRST, BECAUSE IF IT WERE NOT FOR HIM, NOTHING HERE THAT WAS CREATED WOULD HAVE EVER EXISTED, AND I THINK IT IS NOT SMART TO WANT TO KILL SOMEONE WHO IS ABLE TO YOUR SOUL FROM HELL AND TAKE YOU TO A WONDERFUL PLACE CALLED HEAVEN WHERE YOU WILL NO LONGER HAVE TO FACE THE MISERIES OF THIS WORLD.
HOLY SPIRIT HAS NAMES TOO AND THEY ARE, GOD, CREATOR, LORD, SPIRIT OF GOD, SPIRIT OF TRUTH, ETERNAL SPIRIT, THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS CHARACTERISTICS OF A PERSON. HE HAS A MIND, A WILL, CAN SPEAK, AND HE CALLS HIMSELF ME. THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS DNA JUST LIKE WE DO, BUT HIS DNA IS DIFFERENT, BECAUSE OURS IS PHYSICAL, BUT HIS IS SPIRITUAL, AND THIS IS WHAT HE HAS IN HIS DNA, HE HAS GRACE, LIFE, ADOPTION, HOLINESS, TRUTH, GLORY OR POWER, AND SUPPLICATION.
HOLY SPIRIT HELPS US BY TELLING US THINGS IN OUR SPIRIT TO HELP WARN US WHEN DANGER IS AHEAD OR WHEN SOMEONE NEEDS TO BE SET FREE FROM A DEMON. I AM GOING TO GIVE YOU EXAMPLES OF THIS, HERE IS MY FIRST EXAMPLE, ONE TIME WHEN I WAS 14 YEARS OLD I WAS AT A MALL, WITH MY SISTER, HALF SISTER AND MOM, AND AFTER WE WAS ALL DONE SHOPPING WE STARTED TO LEAVE, AND ALL THE SUDDEN I FELT SOMETHING IN MY SPIRIT, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT SPOKE TO ME AND SAID YOU NEED TO GET OUT OF THERE.
I WAS LIKE WHAT, WHY, THEN I DID NOT SAY NOTHING ELSE, EXCEPT TO MY MOM, I TOLD HER, MOM WE NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE, AND SHE SAID, WHAT DO YOU MEAN, AND I SAID, MOM I DO NOT KNOW, BUT WE GOT TO GET OUT OF HERE AND MEAN FAST, AND SHE SAID OK LETS GET OUT OF HERE AND GO HOME, THEN WE ALL GOT IN THE CAR AS FAST AS WE COULD, THEN WE WENT HOME AND WAS SAFE, AND ABOUT 2 HOURS LATER 2 MEN WENT INTO THE MALL WITH GUNS. WHEN MY MOM FOUND OUT, SHE THANKED GOD AND ME FOR OBEYING THE HOLY SPIRIT WHEN HE WAS TALKING TO ME.
OK HERE IS MY SECOND EXAMPLE, ONE TIME I WAS AT A CHURCH REVIVAL, AND ALL THE SUDDEN A WOMAN FALLS RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME AND SHE STARTS SCREAMING, AND I ASKED HOLY SPIRIT WHAT WAS GOING ON, AND HE SAID SHE HAS A TORMENTING DEMON, AND I GOT SUCH A STRONG ALERT FEELING IN MY SPIRIT, AND I SAID, YOU TORMENTING DEMON, COME OUT OF HER IN JESUS NAME.
WHEN I SAID THAT, THE DEMON STARTED MESSING WITH HER, AND SHE STARTED SCREAMING, AND THE DEMON STARTED BENDING HER BACK WAY BACK AS IF HE WAS TRYING TO BREAK HER BACK, AND SO I SAID WITH A MORE FIRM VOICE, I SAID COME OUT OF HER, AND ALMOST IMMEDIATELY SHE SITS UP, AND SHE STARTS WIPING HER EYES, AND A DEACON COMES ALONG AS ASKS IF SHE IS OK, AND SHE TAKES A DEEP BREATH AND SAYS YEAH, AND SO THEN THE DEACON TAKES HER OUT OF THE SANCTUARY AND MINISTERS TO HER.
I BELIEVE ONCE WE ARE BORN AGAIN IT IS FOREVER WHOLEHEARTEDLY. WHEN WE KNOW JESUS AS OUR PERSONAL LORD AND SAVIOR WE HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM AND THIS RELATIONSHIP WILL NEVER BE BROKEN, AND GOD THE FATHER GAVE US JESUS WHEN WE ACCEPTED HIM INTO OUR HEART AND LIFE, AND BECAUSE WE ACCEPTED HIM, WE WILL NOT GO TO HELL, BECAUSE WE ARE NO LONGER UNDER CONDEMNATION, AND HAVE GONE FROM DYING IN OUR SIN TO LIVING FOR JESUS, AND WE WILL BE WITH OUR JESUS FOREVER. OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS IS SECURE, AND WE NEED TO REMEMEBER THAT JESUS DID ALL THE WORK THAT NEEDED TO BE DONE FOR US TO BECOME BORN AGAIN, ALL WE NEED TO DO IS BELIEVE AND HAVE FAITH THAT WE WILL NEVER LOSE HIM, AND IF WE BELIEVE WE WILL LOSE THE RELATIONSHIP, THEN WE DO NOT TRULY BELIEVE WHO JESUS REALLY IS.
IT IS LIKE THIS, WHEN A DAD SEES HIS CHILD FOR THE FIRST TIME, HE SAYS THIS CHILD IS MINE AND PRECIOUS TO ME, AND I AM NEVER LETTING THEM GO. THIS RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS SETS US FREE FROM SIN, AND WE TRY TO DO OUR BEST TO LIVE IN HOLINESS, BECAUSE WE ARE NOW CHILDREN GOD. ONCE WE HAVE JESUS, NOTHING CAN EVER TAKE HIM AWAY FROM US, AND WE DID NOT HAVE TO DO ANYTHING AT ALL FOR HIM TO ACCEPT US EITHER, BUT ONCE WE ACCEPT HIM, WE MAKE A CHOICE TO LIVE FOR HIM. WE KNOW WE HAVE THINGS IN OUR LIFE WE NEED TO LET HIM TAKE FROM US SO OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM BECOMES STRONGER, AND WE STOP LIVING FOR SATAN.
IF WE THINK WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING FOR SOMEONE TO ACCEPT US THEN WE DO NOT REALLY KNOW WHAT TRUE LOVE IS ALL ABOUT AND JESUS LOOKS AT THAT AS AN INSULT, BECAUSE YOU COULD NOT JUST BELIEVE HIM OR HAVE FAITH IN HIM, YOU THINK YOU HAD TO DO ALL KINDS OF THINGS TO GET HIM TO LOVE YOU AND THAT IS NOT TRUE AT ALL, AND JESUS WILL SAY HE NEVER KNEW YOU, AND HE WILL TELL YOU TO GET AWAY FROM HIM. HE WILL CONSIDER EVERYTHING YOU DO AS SINFUL, BECAUSE YOU NEVER TRULY ACCEPTED HIM.
THERE IS ONE THING THAT PEOPLE NEED TO REMEMBER AND THAT IS JESUS DIED FOR US WAY BEFORE WE CAME TO HIM AND WHEN WE COME TO HIM WE CAN COME TO HIM JUST AS WE ARE, WE DO NOT NEED TO TRY AND MAKE OURSELVES RIGHT, BECAUSE JESUS WILL MAKE US RIGHT WHEN WE ACCEPT WHO HE IS AND TRUST HIM WHOLEHEARTEDLY AS OUR LORD AND SAVIOR, AND WE NEED TO BELIEVE AND HAVE FAITH THAT HE LOVES US SO MUCH.
HE MADE A WAY FOR US TO GET OUT OF OUR MISERY AND DARKNESS. IF GOD DID NOT LOVE US THEN HE WOULD HAVE NEVER SENT HIS SON TO DIE FOR US SO WE BECOME BORN AGAIN, AND JESUS WOULD NOT HAVE LOVED US IF HE DID NOT LAY DOWN HIS OWN LIFE FOR US, BUT BECAUSE HE DOES LOVE US HE DID DIE FOR US AND HE DID RISE AGAIN FROM THE DEAD, SO YOU CAN BELIEVE AND HAVE FAITH IN HIM, BECAUSE HE NOT ONLY DID IT, BUT HE SAID HE WOULD AHEAD OF TIME, SINCE HE SAID IT AHEAD OF TIME, WE BELIEVE IT, HAVE FAITH IN IT, BECAUSE OF IT SOME OF US ARE BORN AGAIN.
JESUS IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE, NO ONE CAN COME TO THE FATHER EXCEPT THROUGH HIM, AND HE IS THE ONE WHO WILL KEEP US BORN AGAIN, AND BECAUSE WE ARE BORN AGAIN HE WILL KEEP US WITH HIM IN HEAVEN FOREVER WHEN WE DIE, AND AFTER WE ARE BORN AGAIN, HE WILL BEGIN TO WORK ON OUR HEARTS UNTIL WE GO TO BE WITH HIM, SO WE HAVE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT, BECAUSE WE HAVE HIM FOREVER, WHILE WE ARE ON THE EARTH, AND AFTER WE ARE IN HEAVEN, HE WILL BECOME OUR EVERYTHING.
NOW I AM GOING TO TALK MORE ABOUT CULTS, A CULT IS SOMETHING THAT DENIES THE TRUE DOCTRINES OF THE WORD OF GOD, LIKE THE DEITY OF JESUS, TRINITY, RESURRECTION, SALVATION BY GRACE, WHICH SHOWS THE WORK FOR SALVATION WAS DONE WHEN JESUS DIED ON THE CROSS THEN ROSE AGAIN. MORMONS TRY TO ADD THEIR OWN BOOK, WHICH IS AGAINST THE BIBLE, AND THE BIBLE SAYS, IF ANYONE ADDS OR TAKES AWAY FROM THE BOOK OF REVELATION, THEN GOD WILL SEND PLAGUES WRITTEN IN REVELATION.
MORMONS TEACH THAT GOD THE FATHER HAS FLESH AND JESUS IS A CREATED BEING, AND THEY EVEN SAY THAT JESUS WAS BORN IN HEAVEN AS ONE OF GOD’S SPIRIT CHILDREN, BUT THAT IS A LIE, BECAUSE THE BIBLE SAYS JESUS IS GOD IN FLESH, AND HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN AROUND, HE WAS NOT CREATED, BUT HE CAME TO US AS A BABY BORN ON EARTH, AND HE IS THE CREATOR ALL THINGS. MORMONS TEACH THAT GOD, JESUS, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT ARE 3 GOD'S, BUT THE BIBLE SAYS THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD.
JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES SAY THERE IS ONLY 1 GOD IN 1 PERSON BUT THE BIBLE SAYS THERE IS 1 GOD IN 3 PERSONS. THEY SAY THERE IS NO TRINITY, BUT TRINITY IS IN THE BIBLE, THE BIBLE USES ANOTHER NAME FOR IT, AND IS GODHEAD. THEY SAY JESUS IS MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL, BUT JESUS WAS NOT CREATED AND ANGELS ARE CREATED BEINGS, SO JESUS IS NOT MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL, AND JESUS WAS NOT THE BROTHER OF SATAN OR LUCIFER EITHER, BECAUSE WAS WITHOUT SIN, AND SATAN IS THE WORST SINNER OF ALL. THEY SAY HE DID NOT RAISE FROM THE DEAD IN PHYSICAL BODY, BUT JESUS SAID HE WOULD BE RAISE WITH THE SAME BODY AND HE WENT TO PEOPLE AFTER HE ROSE FROM THE DEAD TO SHOW THE PROOF.
THEY SAY HE DID NOT RAISE AS A HUMAN, BUT AS A SPIRIT, BUT AGAIN, HE ROSE WITH HIS PHYSICAL BODY. JESUS WENT TO THOMAS, PEOPLE CALL DOUBTING THOMAS. WHEN THOMAS SAW HIM HE BECOME AN INSTANT BELIEVER, BUT JESUS SAID BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO HAVE NOT SEEN BUT YET BELIEVE. THEY SAY JESUS WAS BORN AGAIN, BUT JESUS DOES NOT NEED TO BE SAVED FROM ANYTHING, BECAUSE HE WAS BORN SINLESS, AND PLUS HE IS THE ONE THAT SAVES US FROM SIN, SINCE HE DIED ON THE CROSS FOR IT, AND THEY SAY HE DID NOT DIE ON A CROSS BUT ON A STAKE, BUT HE WAS DID DIE ON A CROSS AND PETER WHO WAS CALLED SIMON AT THAT TIME, WAS MADE TO CARRY THAT CROSS, SOLDIERS EVEN CALLED IT A CROSS AS THEY WERE MOCKING JESUS SAYING COME DOWN FROM THE CROSS, SO HE DIED ON A CROSS. THE GREEK WORD FOR CROSS IS STAUROS AND IT MEANS, AN UPRIGHT STAKE, A POINTED ONE, A CROSS.
IF IT WAS A STAKE, INSTEAD OF A CROSS, THEN JESUS HANDS WOULD BE PLACED OVER HIS HEAD WITH A NAIL PUT IN HIS WRISTS, SO THE WRISTS WOULD BE ONE ON TOP OF THE OTHER, AND ONLY ONE NAIL WOULD BE NEEDED, AND I WANT TO SAY SOMETHING HERE, NO MATTER WHICH WAY HE DIED, HE STILL ROSE FROM THE DEAD, AND CONQUERED DEATH, AND BEAT SATAN AT HIS GAME, THINKING HE WAS GOING TO RULE THE EARTH. JESUS IS OUR RULER FOREVER AND HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN RULER, EVEN IF THE JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES DECIDES TO PUT A DATE ON WHEN HE STARTED TO RULE THE EARTH, AND THEY EVEN SAY THAT JESUS DIED FOR EVERYONE ACCEPT ADAM, BUT THE BIBLE SAYS HE DIED FOR ALL, THAT INCLUDES ADAM.
THEY SAY THEIR CHURCH IS NAMED AFTER THEM, BUT THE TRUE BORN AGAIN BELIEVERS ARE ALL THE CHURCH, AND THEY SAY THEY ARE THE ONLY WAY TO THE TRUTH, BUT JESUS SAID HE WAS THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE. THEY SAY ONLY THEIR CHURCH CAN ONLY WILL BE BORN AGAIN, BUT BIBLE SAYS, ALL THAT CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED, AND THEY SAY WORKS ARE NECESSARY FOR SALVATION, BUT JESUS DID THE FINAL WORK NEEDED TO BE DONE TO HELP US BE BORN AGAIN. THEY SAY OUR SOULS WILL NO LONGER EXIST ONCE WE DIE, BUT JESUS ROSE FROM THE DEAD AND STILL EXISTS, SO WE WILL.
THEY SAY THERE IS NO LAKE OF FIRE WHERE EVIL PEOPLE ARE PUNISHED, WELL THEY JUST DO NOT WANT TO FACE UP TO THE FACT. THEY SAY ONLY THE 144, 000 MAY TAKE COMMUNION, BUT THE SHOWS US THAT ANYONE WHO IS A TRUE BORN AGAIN BELIEVE CAN TAKE COMMUNION, AND THEY SAY THAT BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS ARE A SIN, AND WHAT I SAY TO THAT IS, IF BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS WERE A SIN, A LOT OF PEOPLE WOULD HAVE BEEN DEAD BY NOW INSTEAD OF THEIR LIFE BEING SAVED FROM HAVING ONE, BECAUSE GOD IS NOT GOING TO WORK THROUGH SOMETHING THAT IS CONSIDERED TO BE SINFUL.
I THINK IT IS GREAT, BECAUSE OF DOCTORS THINKING OF THAT. ATHEISTS DO NOT BELIEVE GOD EXISTS OR THEY DENY HE EXISTS, AND THEY DO NOT BELIEVE IN HEAVEN OR THE LAKE OF FIRE, OR EVEN SATAN OR DEMONS OR EVEN ANGELS, AND THEY BELIEVE ONCE WE DIE THAT IS IT, WE NO LONGER EXIST, BUT THAT TOTALLY GOES AGAIN THE BIBLE BECAUSE GOD DOES EXIST, THERE IS A HEAVEN AND A LAKE OF FIRE AND SATAN AND DEMONS, AND ANGELS. IF THEY WOULD BECOME BORN AGAIN THEY WOULD UNDERSTAND AND REALIZE THAT AND THEIR LIFE WOULD BE SO MUCH BETTER THAN IT IS.
A COMMANDMENT TO LOVE GOD AND OTHERS
GOD'S LOVE IS PERFECT, AND WHEN YOU LIVE IN GOD'S LOVE, THEN HIS LOVE LASTS FOREVER, AND THROUGH HIS LOVE HE DRAWS YOU NEAR HIM THROUGH THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND THERE IS NOT EVEN ONE THING THAT CAN SEPARATE YOU FROM HIS PERFECT LOVE. HIS LOVE TAKES AWAY ALL FEAR, AND FEAR COMES FROM SATAN, AND HE HAS NO LOVE IN HIM, SO IN LOVE GOD'S THERE IS NO FEAR. IF YOU DO NOT LOVE PEOPLE, THEN YOU DO NOT LOVE GOD OR HAVE HIM IN YOUR LIFE, JEREMIAH 31 : 3, ROMANS 8 : 39, 1 JOHN 2 : 5, 1 JOHN 4 : 12, 1 JOHN 4 : 18.
YOU NEED TO LOVE JESUS MORE THAN ANYTHING WITH ALL YOUR HEART, SOUL, MIND AND STRENGTH, BECAUSE IF YOU DO NOT, THEN YOU ARE NOT WORTHY TO HAVE ALL GOD HAS FOR YOU ESPECIALLY HAVE HIM IN YOUR LIFE, AND IF YOU PUT ANYTHING ABOVE LOVING JESUS, THEN YOU DO NOT HAVE HIS LOVE IN YOU, MATTHEW 10 : 37-38, LUKE 10 : 27, 1 JOHN 2 : 15
CONFRONTING SOMEONE WITH THEIR SIN IS SHOWING LOVE TO THEM, AND SHOULD BE GRATEFUL THAT THEY ARE DOING IT BECAUSE IF YOU LET IT UPSET YOU THEN YOU ARE PROVING YOURSELF TO NOT BE VERY INTELLIGENT, PROVERBS 9 : 8, PROVERBS 12 : 1, PROVERBS 27 : 5, MATTHEW 18 : 15, GALATIANS 5 : 22-23.
IF YOU LOVE SOMEONE, THEN YOU WILL BE WILLING TO WAIT FOR THEM FOR AS LONG AS IT TAKES, BECAUSE THAT IS SHOWING REAL LOVE, AND IT SHOWS YOU ARE STRONG ENOUGH TO GO THROUGH ANYTHING, AND WHEN GOD SAYS IT IS TIME, THEN THE RELATIONSHIP WITH THAT PERSON WILL ONLY GET BETTER, AND WHEN YOU DECIDE TO PUT GOD IN THE MIDDLE OF IT, THEN NOTHING CAN STOP THE RELATIONSHIP, AND IF YOU WANT TO KEEP THAT RELATIONSHIP THEN YOU DO NOT HAVE IT IN YOUR HEART OR MIND TO HURT THE OTHER PERSON, AND YOU WILL FORGIVE AND FORGET WHAT THEY DID WRONG TO YOU AND THEY WILL DO THE SAME FOR YOU, GENESIS 29 : 20, LEVITICUS 19 : 18, DEUTERONOMY 32 : 43, PSALMS 27 : 14, ROMANS 13 : 10, 1 CORINTHIANS 13 : 4-7.
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO GET ANGRY BUT YOU NEED TO BE ANGRY FOR THE RIGHT REASONS, AND THE ONE THING YOU DO NOT WANT TO DO IS HAVE A TEMPER AND STAY THAT WAY, BECAUSE NO ONE WANTS TO BE FRIENDS WITH SOMEONE WHO HAS A TEMPER, BECAUSE SOMETIMES A TEMPER CAN TURN INTO ABUSE, AND IF YOU HANG AROUND SOMEONE LIKE THAT, YOU MAY PICK UP THEIR HABIT, AND HURT SOMEONE AND REGRET IT LATER, AND IF SOMEONE SEES WHAT IS GOING ON THEY WILL NOT TRUST YOU, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE A PASTOR, AND GOD WILL JUDGE THAT PERSON, BECAUSE NOT ONLY ARE THEY SINNING BY LOSING THEIR TEMPER AND HURTING SOMEONE, BUT ALSO THEY ARE ALSO SINNING AGAINST GOD AND HURTING HIM, AND THEY END UP ALLOWING SATAN TO MAKE THINGS WORSE, PROVERBS 22 : 24-25, HOSEA 14 : 4, MATTHEW 5 : 22, MATTHEW 12 : 43-45, EPHESIANS 4 : 26-27, TITUS 1 : 7-9.
WHEN PEOPLE GET ANGRY AT YOU FOR NO REASON, BE GOOD TO THEM, AND BE PATIENT WITH THEM, ASK THEM WHAT IS WRONG AND PRAY WITH THEM, AND NO MATTER WHAT, CONTINUE TO LOVE THEM, AND LET YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER DEAL WITH THEM, AND DO NOT GET OFFENDED AND PRIDEFUL BY THINKING YOU ARE ANY BETTER THAN THEY ARE, AND WHEN YOU SEE SOMEONE GETTING HURT, DO NOT JUST SIT THERE AND DO NOTHING, STAND UP FOR THEM, BECAUSE THEY JUST END UP DOING THE SAME FOR YOU LATER, BECAUSE SOMETIMES GOODNESS COMES OUT OF THE SITUATION, AND IF YOU DO NOT GIVE UP ON EACH OTHER, BECAUSE YOU BOTH ENDED UP DECIDING TO DO THE RIGHT THING, MATTHEW 5 : 44-45, JOHN 15 :9.
ALWAYS TELL SOMEONE THE WHOLE TRUTH NO MATTER WHAT BECAUSE IT PLEASES GOD AND IT SHOWS PEOPLE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED, AND EVEN IF THE TRUTH HURTS, SOMETIMES IT HELPS PEOPLE GROW IN THE LORD, BECAUSE A PASTOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR TELLING THE TRUTH, AND THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE REPRESENTING WHO GOD IS, AND GOD ABOUT TRUTH, BECAUSE HE ALWAYS TELLS THE TRUTH, AND JUST LIKE ANYONE ELSE, PASTOR WILL NOT GO TO HEAVEN IF THEY SPEAK LIES, PROVERBS 12 : 19, PROVERBS 16 : 6, ECCLESIASTES 12 : 10, JOHN 1 : 14, JOHN 1 : 17, JOHN 14 : 6, JOHN 17 : 17, EPHESIANS 4 : 15-16.
OBEYING JESUS BY LOVING OTHERS BY NOT BEING PREJUDICE TOWARDS THEM, AND ARE WILLING TO DIE FOR SOMEONE ELSE, THEN THAT SHOWS YOU LOVE THEM AND JESUS, AND LOVE COMES FROM GOD, AND THAT LOVE LASTS FOREVER, AND IF YOU LOVE GOD, YOU WANT TO DO WHAT HE SAYS, AND NOT QUIT, BECAUSE THAT SHOWS YOU ARE HIS CHILD, BUT IF YOU HATE HIM, AND REBEL AGAINST HIM, THEN YOU PROVE TO BE A CHILD OF SATAN, AND IF YOU LOVE PEOPLE AND THE THINGS OF THIS WORLD MORE THAN GOD, THEN YOU DO NOT HAVE THE HOLY SPIRIT LIVING INSIDE YOU, AND IF YOU CHOOSE NOT TO LOVE OTHER OR GOD, THEN YOU DO NOT KNOW GOD, AND YOU ARE SPIRITUALLY DEAD, SO IF YOU WANT TO SHOW YOU LOVE SOMEONE DO NOT JUST SAY YOU ARE GOING TO DO SOMETHING FOR THEM, ALSO DO IT FOR THEM, BECAUSE WHEN YOU SHOW LOVE TO OTHERS, IT SHOWS YOU HAVING THE HOLY SPIRIT INSIDE YOU, JOHN 14 :15, JOHN 14 : 21, JOHN 15 :13, 1 JOHN 3 : 18, 1 JOHN 4 : 7-8, 1 JOHN 5 : 3, 2 JOHN 1 : 6.
RECEIVE HEALING BY JESUS INSTRUCTIONS
AS YOU COME TO GOD AS HIS LITTLE CHILD AND SEEK HIS WILL FIRST, AND TRUST HIM WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND HAVE NO WORRIES ABOUT WHAT YOU FEEL AND THINK ABOUT THINGS GOING ON IN YOUR LIFE, KNOWING THAT GOD KNOWS WHAT IS BETTER FOR YOU, BECAUSE HE KNOWS YOU INSIDE AND OUT, EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU, AND HE WILL LEAD YOU IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION, SO SUBMIT YOUR LIFE TO HIM, SO HE CAN DO HIS WORK IN YOU AND THROUGH YOU, AND BLESS YOUR LIFE COMPLETELY. 1 SAMUEL 15 : 22, 2 CHRONICLES 7 : 14, PROVERBS 3 :5-6, MATTHEW 6 : 33.
SATAN IS THE DESTROYER OF LIFE, SO YOU NEED TO RESIST SATAN'S ATTACKS BY TURNING AWAY FROM SIN, BECAUSE THINGS WILL GET SO MUCH WORSE FOR YOU IF YOU DON'T, SO TURN TOWARDS GOD, BECAUSE HE IS THE GIVER OF LIFE, AND IF YOU SEEK HIM AND HIS WAYS, YOU WILL GET THE MANIFESTATION OF YOUR HEALING, BUT IF YOU DO NOT WANT THE FULL MANIFESTATION OF YOUR HEALING, THEN GO AHEAD AND GO YOUR WAY, AND LET SATAN USE THAT AGAINST YOU, LET HIM MESS UP YOUR LIFE, BUT IF YOU WANT TO GET OUT OF THAT MESS YOU ARE IN, START LISTENING TO GOD, THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND DO NOT IGNORE HIM, BECAUSE THE HOLY SPIRIT KNOWS EVERYTHING THAT IS GOING ON IN YOUR LIFE, SO HE WILL NEVER STEER YOU IN THE WRONG DIRECTION EVER. LUKE 11 : 23-26, JOHN 10 : 10, JAMES 4 : 7, GOD WILL REWARD YOU IF YOU DO YOUR FASTING PRIVATELY., MATTHEW 6 : 16-18
ASK GOD TO FORGIVE YOU BEFORE YOU COME TO HIM ABOUT THINGS YOU WANT OR NEED IN YOUR LIFE, BECAUSE HE WILL NOT LISTEN TO AN DISOBEDIENT CHILD OF HIS, BECAUSE DISOBEDIENT CHILDREN ARE NOT HIS CHILDREN, BECAUSE DISOBEDIENT CHILDREN FOLLOW SATAN, SO IT IS BEST TO GET THE SIN OUT OF THE WAY FIRST, SO YOU CAN PRESENT YOURSELF IN THE WAY GOD WANTS TO SEE YOU. MATTHEW 25 : 41-46, JAMES 5 : 16
GOD WILL TAKE VENGEANCE ON YOU, AND NOT DO ANYTHING FOR YOU, IF YOU CHOOSE NOT TO FORGIVE SOMEONE OR HOLD ON TO BITTERNESS OR HATE. PSALMS 94 : 1O, MATTHEW 18 : 21-35. WHEN WE ACCEPT JESUS INTO OUR LIFE TO BE OUR LORD AND SAVIOR, GOD PROMISES US ETERNAL LIFE, AND SINCE WE HAVE ETERNAL LIFE, THAT GIVES US BOTH PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL HEALING FROM THE INSIDE OUT, AND WE HAVE GO TO A PLACE CALLED HEAVEN, WHICH IS OUR HOME FOREVER. JOHN 3 : 16, 1 CORINTHIANS 15 : 53-54, 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 1
GOD WANTS TO FREE US FROM THE THINGS OF SATAN, SO HE CAN USE US TO TELL PEOPLE ABOUT JESUS, AND BY OBEYING GOD, CHILDREN OF GOD LIVE LONGER. 2 KINGS 20 : 5-6, PSALMS 37 : 3-5. YOU HAVE GOD'S MERCY WHEN YOU FOLLOW HIM, BUT YOU DIE PHYSICALLY AND SPIRITUALLY WHEN YOU TURN YOUR BACK ON GOD. PSALMS 103 : 2-5, ROMANS 6 : 14, ROMANS 6 : 23. BY SAYING NEGATIVE WORDS YOU CAUSE YOURSELF NOT TO HAVE THE MANIFESTATION OF YOUR HEALING, BUT IF YOU SAY POSITIVE WORDS, THEN THAT IS WHAT PLEASES GOD AND HE WILL BLESS YOU FOR IT. PROVERBS 15 : 14, PROVERBS 16 : 23, PROVERBS 18 : 21
THE HOLY SPIRIT KNOWS OUR THOUGHTS, AND HE KNOWS SOMETIMES THOSE THOUGHTS DO NOT COME IN LINE WITH HIS.PSALMS 94 : 11 YOUR DOUBT CAN CAUSE YOU NOT TO HAVE THE MANIFESTATION OF YOUR HEALING, AND GOD WANTS YOU TO BELIEVE IN WHAT HE WILL DO AND WHAT HE HAS DONE, AND IT HURTS HIS FEELINGS WHEN WE CHOOSE NOT TO. HEBREWS 11 : 6 IF YOU HAVE FAITH IN GOD, RAISE YOUR HANDS UP, AND SHOW THE ATTITUDE JESUS HAD WHEN HE WAS ON THE CROSS. PSALMS 31 : 5, 1 TIMOTHY 2 : 8
THE ONE THING WE NEED TO ALWAYS REMEMBER, GOD'S SPIRIT IS IN US, SO IT IS GOD'S SPIRIT THAT GIVES THE MANIFESTATION OF SOMEONE'S HEALING WHEN WE LAY HANDS ON THEM AND PRAY FOR THEM, AND AS WE PRAY, IF WE DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO PRAY, THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL TELL US WHAT TO SAY WHEN WE PRAY. ZECHARIAH 4 : 6 ROMANS 8 : 26 NEVER LAY HANDS ON ANYONE WHO DOES NOT BELIEVE IN GOD'S POWER TO RECEIVE THE MANIFESTATION OF THEIR HEALING. 1 TIMOTHY 5 : 22
GOD TOLD US IF WE WILL OBEY HIM, HE WOULD NOT ALLOW DISEASES TO COME ON US, AND HE WILL GIVE US THE MANIFESTATION OF OUR HEALING, BECAUSE HE IS THE ONE THAT HEALS US. EXODUS 15 : 26 IF WE BELIEVE WE WILL RECEIVE OUR HEALING EVEN WHEN THE MANIFESTATION OF OUR HEALING DOES NOT HAPPEN RIGHT AWAY, THEN WE WILL HAVE THE MANIFESTATION, AND A BLESSING WILL COME OUT OF IT. 2 SAMUEL 12 : 15-25, 1 KINGS 17 : 7-24, JOHN 11 : 14-17, JOHN 11 : 23, JOHN 11 : 43-44
IF JESUS WOULD NOT HAVE SHED HIS BLOOD YOU WOULD HAVE DIED SPIRITUALLY AND PHYSICALLY, OR YOU WOULD NEVER BE SET FREE FROM SICKNESS, DISEASE OR SIN, AND JESUS BLOOD CAN BRING A PERSON BACK TO LIFE, SO BELIEVE IN WHAT JESUS DID FOR YOU AND WATCH WHAT HE DOES. LEVITICUS 17 : 11
JESUS HAS THE ABILITY TO GIVE YOU THE MANIFESTATION OF YOUR HEALING, AND WHEN THE MANIFESTATION OF THAT HEALING COMES, YOU ARE MADE COMPLETELY WHOLE. MATTHEW 14 : 36, MATTHEW 28 : 18 YOU HAVE THE GIFT OF THE MANIFESTATION OF YOUR HEALING INSIDE YOU. ACTS 1 : 7-8, ACTS 2 : 24, 1 CORINTHIANS 12 : 8-11
WHEN YOU ACCEPT JESUS AS YOUR LORD AND SAVIOR, GOD PROMISES THAT YOU HAVE THE MANIFESTATION OF YOUR HEALING IN THE PAST AND IN THE PRESENT. ISAIAH 53 : 5, 1 PETER 2 : 24
JESUS LET PEOPLE SPIT ON HIM, BEAT HIM, WHIPPED HIM, PULL HIS BEARD OUT, NAIL HIM ON A CROSS FOR OUR SICKNESS AND SIN, THEN HE DIED AND HE DID ALL OF THAT WILLINGLY, AND BECAUSE IT WAS HIS FATHER'S WILL, AND IF HE HAD NOT DONE THAT, THEN WE WOULD NOT BE SET FREE FROM OUR SINS. JOHN 10 : 18, HEBREWS 9 : 22
LET JESUS LIVE IN US THE TABERNABLE
WHEN IT COMES TO THE TABERNACLE, AND LOOK AT OURSELVES AS A TABERNACLE, AND THINK TO OURSELVES, WHEN JESUS COMES TO LIVE INSIDE US, HIS TABERNACLE, WE BECOME HIS AND HE BECOMES OUR LORD AND SAVIOR, WE GO FROM BEING POWERLESS TO POWERFUL, WHICH MEANS, ANYTHING JESUS CAN DO, WE CAN DO, AS LONG AS WE HAVE HIM LIVING INSIDE US.
I MEAN THINK ABOUT THAT, IF WE WOULD THINK ABOUT THE TABERNACLE AS BEING US, AND WE THINK ABOUT JESUS BEING IN THAT TABERNACLE, THEN REALLY THERE IS NOTHING IMPOSSIBLE, AND ALL THE SIN AND NEGATIVE ATTIDUDES WE HAVE, AND ALL THE FEARS WE HAVE WILL SUDDENLY NOT BE THERE, BUT ONLY IF WE TRUST JESUS ENOUGH TO LET HIM COME IN COMPLETELY.
I MEAN IF WE JUST LET HIS FOOT COME IN AND NOT FULLY ALL OF HIM, THEN HE MIGHT AS WELL TAKE HIS FOOT BACK OUT AND SAY FORGET IT, YOU EITHER TRUST ME ALL THE WAY, OR IT IS NO DEAL PERIOD, SO WHAT DO WE DO, LET HIM COME IN AND COME IN COMPLETELY, OR CONTINUE TO TREAT HIM LIKE HE IS SOME STRANGER OR ENEMY THAT WE CAN GET NOTHING FROM.
