Overcome the World
Jesus Christ said that unless a person is born again he cannot see nor enter the kingdom of God. The apostle John wrote in 1 John 5:4 that whatever is born of God overcomes the world.
The reason why most believers cannot stop sinning and cannot overcome the flesh is because they are not born again. If we are born again of the Spirit of God, we overcome the world, we overcome the flesh and we do the will of God.
Those who are born again of the Spirit of God and who walk according to the Spirit, who are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God, but those who live according to the flesh, they will perish.
The soul that sins will die. Jesus said:"SIN NO MORE.' Those who sin will perish. Those who cannot stop sinning are not born again. They are not born of God.
Do we overcome the world? Are we born of God? Are we children of God?
May Jesus bless you.

Overcome FEAR
The righteous have nothing to fear. Those who have submitted their lives to Jesus Christ and who are living to please Him, have no reason to fear because nothing can touch them that Jesus does not allow to come onto them.
Job was a righteous man and satan could not touch him because God protected him. satan could only do to Job what God allowed him to do to Him.
If we have submitted our lives to Jesus Christ and we are following Him then He guides our footsteps, He determines our life and we have nothing to fear. Many believers are living in constant fear and uncertainty. They worry about many things, they are anxious and they are stressed. It is because they do not TRUST Jesus. If we trust Jesus we will not fear because perfect love drives out fear.
If we submit our lives to Jesus and we live to please Him then we live in confidence , we live in His peace and we pray for His will to be done in our lives. Nothing can touch us , nothing can happen to us that is not of His making. If you are living in fear and uncertainty and if you are worried about many things , submit it to Jesus. take it to Him in prayer and trust Him to make all things to work together for good because He cares for you. You can only overcome fear by fully trusting in Jesus Christ.
If you are living in sin that separates you from Jesus, REPENT of it and SUBMIT to Him and then trust Him, obey Him and you will have confidence. You will have no more reason to fear.
Submit to Jesus, trust Him and FEAR NO MORE because He cares for you.
May Jesus bless you.

Do not challenge God
The world has many false images and perceptions of Jesus Christ. Most Christians also worship a false image of Jesus because they do not really know Him. They do not fear Him and they do not respect Him. Many believers foolishly mock and blaspheme the Holy Spirit. It is because they themselves do not know Jesus Christ and they run after other people who themselves do not know Him. If they knew Him, they would fear Him and respect Him. They would obey Him and He would reveal Himself to them so that they would truly know Him.
Those who KNOW Jesus Christ, do not challenge Him, they do not mock Him, they FEAR Him and they respect Him because they KNOW that He means what He says. The words that He spoke as also recorded in the gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, those are the words of eternal life for those who obey them. But those who disobey them are already judged, they are already condemned IF they do not REPENT and OBEY Jesus Christ.
You only get to know Jesus if you bow on your knees before Him, you humble yourself before Him in prayer and you seek him until you find Him. If you draw closer to Him, He will draw closer to you. Do not play games with Jesus. Be serious, He is GOD, He is ALMIGHTY. Fear Him, respect Him and obey Him or you will perish.
Jesus Christ will say to most believers:"Go away I never knew you, you workers of wickedness." They never knew Him, they never feared Him, they never respected Him. They never OBEYED Him. Do not challenge God. Give Him the honor that is due to Him.
May Jesus bless you.

What you DESERVE
In this world that we live in we often hear these words:"You DESERVE a new car, you DESERVE a better life, you DESERVE certain things..." when people have not worked for those things, they have done NOTHING for them. Believers are also told that they deserve heaven, they DESERVE eternal life just because they believe in Jesus Christ. That is not true.
Jesus Christ will reward every man according to what they DESERVE, according to their WORKS, not according to their faith, not according to what they thought or believed. Jesus Christ is the righteous judge and He will reward each of us according to what we have DONE in the flesh.
The apostle Paul wrote in Romans 2:6-11 “God WILL RENDER TO EVERY MAN ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS: to those who by perseverance in doing good seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life; 8but to those who are selfishly ambitious and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, wrath and indignation. 9There will be tribulation and distress for every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek, 10but glory and honor and peace to every man who does good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 11For there is no partiality with God.” There is no discrimination.
We also read in Matthew 16:27 The Lord Jesus said:“For the Son of Man is going to come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and WILL THEN REPAY EVERY MAN ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS.”
We also read these words in Revelation 22:12 “Behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to render to every man according to what he has done. “
Jesus Christ said that every branch in Him that does not bear good fruit will get cut off and burned. Believers think that they do not have to serve Jesus. They don't want to serve Him. They don't want to live righteously. They don't want to obey the truth. They will be rewarded according to their DEEDS, whether good or bad.
The apostle Paul also wrote in 2 Corinthians 5:9,10 "Therefore we also have as our ambition, whether at home or absent, to be pleasing to Him. 10For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.”
We have to be pleasing to Jesus. If we disobey Him, disobey the truth, He will give to us what we DESERVE, either punishment, eternal punishment in damnation or He will reward us in His heavenly kingdom if we obeyed Him. We will be judged according to our DEEDS, what we have DONE in the flesh.
Is Jesus Christ pleased with us? What REWARD do we expect when we stand before the judgment throne of God?
May Jesus bless you.

Love is ACTION
Love is not just words. Love is ACTION. If we love Jesus Christ we will OBEY Him. Jesus said:"He who loves Me is the one who keeps My commands and Me and My Father will love him and We will come and make our abode with him and I will reveal Myself to him." That is the promise that Jesus makes to those who demonstrate their love to Him through their obedience to Him .
The disciples of Jesus loved Him and therefor they followed Him, they stayed WITH Him. If we love Jesus we will turn away from sin, we will turn away from our own plans, our own ambitions, we will abandon them and go after Jesus, we will FOLLOW Him. We will demonstrate, we will show by our DEEDS that we love Him.
If we truly love Jesus then we will get into ACTION, we will follow and obey Him until the very end. If we do not love Him then we are not worthy of Him and we will not enter His kingdom.
Do we truly love Jesus?
May Jesus bless you.

Assurance of Salvation
Believers look for assurance of salvation, from the Scriptures and from what other people say, from prophecies and from books, but the only One who can really tell us what out situation is, is Jesus Christ Himself. He gave us the Holy Spirit to guide us and to teach us and to tell us what our situation is with Him, whether He is pleased with us.
Only Jesus can tell us whether He is pleased with us. There is no other assurance, nobody else can tell us. We have to go to Him and ask Him whether He is pleased with us. Seek Him, pray , wait on Him until He speaks to you, then you KNOW whether Jesus Christ is pleased with you or not.
Stay IN HIS PEACE. Keep on seeking Him. Keep on seeking His approval and He will reveal Himself to you. Do not trust other people. Do not look for assurances in the Bible. Look for your assurance and your guidance from Jesus Christ Himself.
May Jesus bless you.

Living in EXPECTATION
To follow Jesus Christ means to live in expectation of Him, to be focused on Him, to get our guidance and our inspiration from Him, to always always have an expectation to receive from Him when we pray.
Our focus must be on Jesus and not on other things. He is the way, the truth and the life. If we focus on other things, our own mind, our own thoughts, our own opinion, on other people, then we will be in darkness. If we want to live by philosophies, by application of Bible verses, then our focus is off Jesus. What we read in the Bible should put out focus on Jesus Christ. Our hope is in Him. Our expectation is from Him. When we start looking around at other things and other people then we lose focus. The source of our power, our life and our direction is Jesus Christ. Without Jesus we can do nothing. We have to be totally focused on Jesus Christ and our expectation must be from Him. He rewards those who diligently seek Him, who come to Him with expectation and who patiently wait on Him.
Without faith it is impossible to please God. We have to go to Jesus and follow after Him with EXPECTATION. He rewards those who WAIT on Him.
May Jesus bless you.

Submit your WILL to Jesus Christ
There is one thing that prevents us from following Jesus Christ and from doing His will, what He requires of us, and that is OUR OWN WILL.
We cannot follow Jesus Christ and be pleasing to Him unless we submit our WILL to Him. It is not about what I think or what I want to do for Jesus Christ. It is all about what He wants to use me for. But unless I submit myself to Him He cannot use me. If I do not submit to Jesus I will not leave everything and go where He sends me. Many people go out on their own FOR Jesus, but they go WITHOUT Jesus. It is not what WE want to do for Him, it is what HE wants us to do. We have to submit our will and ourselves to Him before we can SERVE HIM and if we do not serve Him then we are useless for the kingdom of God, then we cannot be fruitful.
Every tree that does not bear fruit will get cut off and burned. We must submit our WILL to Jesus Christ before we can do HIS WILL.
Many believers give in to peer pressure. Many are controlled by family, friends, their spouses, they cannot do the will of God. They cannot be pleasing to Jesus. We have to submit to HIM ALONE and let Him guide us. WAIT on Him and let Him direct your footsteps, and when He sends you, you must GO.
We cannot SERVE Jesus Christ and do His will unless we submit to Him. We cannot be part of His kingdom unless we serve HIM as Lord, King and Master.
May Jesus bless you.

Reject Christians
If we are not willing to give up everything and give our utmost, our very best for Jesus Christ, then we should not even bother following Him. If we are not willing to work for the kingdom of God, be a witness for Jesus and be blameless, holy, dedicated to Him, separated unto Him then we are not worthy of Him and we are not acceptable to Him.
The branch in Him that does not bear good fruit will get cut off and burned. If we are lukewarm and not serious about our relationship with Jesus, about serving Him, then He will VOMIT us out. He will reject us. Only the best is good enough for Jesus. If we are not willing to give Him the very best of ourselves then we are not suitable for the kingdom of heaven and He will reject us. There are many REJECT CHRISTIANS. Jesus will REJECT them because they were not serious, they did not really love Him, they did not obey Him, they did not follow Him, they were not worthy of Him and therefor they will be REJECTED.
Are we PERFECT in our dedication to Jesus or are we rejects?
May Jesus bless you.

PERFECTION Required for Salvation
When you preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and His requirements for salvation then people will often ask you whether you are sinless, or whether you are perfect.
The gospel of Jesus Christ is not about His followers. It is about His requirements for salvation. If we do not live up to His requirements and if we do not obey Him we will not enter His kingdom.
We preach the gospel of Jesus Christ because we have come to know Him and we know His requirements. We know that only those who obey Him and who endure until the very end will enter His kingdom.
He said:"Be perfect like your father in heaven is perfect." Those are His words. The unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God. People tell you that there are no righteous men on earth. That is immaterial, that does not matter. What matters is: Do we comply with with the words of Jesus Christ? Does He approve of us? The words of Jesus are recorded in the gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Those are the words that will judge each and every one of us.
Do we live up to those words? Those who disobey Jesus Christ are already judged. Are we trying to refute Jesus or are we following Him
Only those who comply with His words, His commands, only they are suitable for the kingdom of heaven. Do we comply with the words of Jesus Christ?
May Jesus bless you?

Jesus Christ Requires PERFECTION
Jesus Christ requires of us absolute perfection in obedience to Him, or else we are useless for the kingdom of heaven and we will end up in hell. A thoroughbred horse that does not perform to the commands and instructions of his rider will end up at the slaughterhouse. A tree that does not bear fruit will get cut off and burned.
Many thoroughbred Christians will end up in hell because they do not yield to Jesus Christ. They do not submit to Him, they are useless for the kingdom of heaven. Many Christians are like trees with lush branches but they have no fruit. They quote Bible verse and they are very religious but they have bad fruit, they are SINNERS. They will get cut off and burned. If we do not submit to Jesus Christ and perfectly obey Him, live for His kingdom and do His will we are USELESS for Him and He will discard of us. Every branch in Him that does not bear good fruit will get cut off and burned.
Is Jesus Christ PERFECTLY pleased with our fruit, with our performance? Do we YIELD to His correction and do we allow Him to form us, make us and change us into His likeness or are we INSUBORDINATE, DISOBEDIENT, FRUITLESS, conformed to this world?
If we we do not submit to Him, repent and bear good fruit and perfectly obey Him we will perish. He will discard of us like the thoroughbred horse that ends up at the slaughterhouse, like the beautiful tree that gets cut down because it does not bear fruit.
Are we PERFECTLY obedient to Jesus Christ?
May Jesus bless you.

Living by the SPIRIT
What can be known about God is known to all people because God Himself has revealed it to them and in them. We all know right from wrong because God has written His laws in our hearts. Nobody will have any excuse. Nobody will be able to say that they did not know. The Holy Spirit convicts the whole world of SIN, RIGHTEOUSNESS and JUDGMENT. The laws of God are written in our conscience. We are immediately convicted if we even think wrong, so nobody will have any excuse.
The apostle Paul also wrote in Romans 8:12 "we are under obligation, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh— 13for if you are living according to the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you are putting to death the deeds of the body, you will live. 14For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God."
Jesus Christ said:"My sheep LISTEN to My VOICE and they FOLLOW Me." The Holy Spirit speaks to all men. The Holy Spirit convicts all men of SIN, RIGHTEOUSNESS and JUDGMENT, but very few LISTEN. If we LISTEN to the Holy Spirit and we live by the guidance of the Holy Spirit we will not sin, but if we go after the lusts of our flesh and our carnal desires, then we must PERISH. If we yearn for and go after the guidance of the Holy Spirit and we obey Him, He will reveal Jesus Christ to us. We will get to KNOW Him. If we seek Him, we will find Him. If we seek TRUTH, the Holy Spirit will reveal Jesus Christ to us and He will give His SPIRIT in those who OBEY Him. Those who do not have the Spirit of Christ do not belong to Him.
Most believers do not want the Holy Spirit. They don't want the Spirit of Christ. They just want salvation. They don't want Jesus Christ and therefor they will perish. They do not LISTEN to the Holy Spirit. They live by their own opinion and their carnal minds. They listen to other people and they follow after their desires. They do not live by the SPIRIT, they live by the FLESH and therefor they will perish if they do not REPENT.
If we LISTEN tot the SPIRIT of God who speaks to each and every one of us and if we obey Him, we will LIVE but if we ignore Him we will perish.
May Jesus bless you.

Righteous men do NOT SIN The Unrighteous Will PERISH
Many people will end up in hell because they believed satan's lies. One of those lies that is commonly believed nowadays is that Jesus Christ was the only man that could walk this earth without sinning. That is not true. there were many righteous men throughout the ages. There were people like Enoch, Abraham, Lot, Noah, Daniel, Shadrach, Meshack and Abednego, Samuel, the prophets, and all those who believed in Jesus Christ and who followed Him, those who repented and who became saints, children of God, who followed Jesus Christ.
The unrighteous will PERISH. Let us read Ezekiel 14:12
"Then the word of the LORD came to me saying, 13“Son of man, if a country sins against Me by committing unfaithfulness, and I stretch out My hand against it, destroy its supply of bread, send famine against it and cut off from it both man and beast, 14even though these three men, Noah, Daniel and Job were in its midst, by their own righteousness they could only deliver themselves,” declares the Lord GOD. 15“If I were to cause wild beasts to pass through the land and they depopulated it, and it became desolate so that no one would pass through it because of the beasts, 16though these three men were in its midst, as I live,” declares the Lord GOD, “they could not deliver either their sons or their daughters. They alone would be delivered, but the country would be desolate. 17“Or if I should bring a sword on that country and say, ‘Let the sword pass through the country and cut off man and beast from it,’ 18even though these three men were in its midst, as I live,” declares the Lord GOD, “they could not deliver either their sons or their daughters, but they alone would be delivered. 19“Or if I should send a plague against that country and pour out My wrath in blood on it to cut off man and beast from it, 20even though Noah, Daniel and Job were in its midst, as I live,” declares the Lord GOD, “they could not deliver either their son or their daughter. They would deliver only themselves by their righteousness.”
GOD NEVER CHANGED. The unrighteous will not come into His presence. He will CUT THEM OFF, they will PERISH.
We read the words of the apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 6:9
"Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, 10nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God. 11Such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God."
If we do not TURN we will BURN. If we do not turn away from unrighteousness and obey Jesus Christ and live righteousness we will not enter His kingdom.
The apostle John wrote in 1 John 3:4
"Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness. 5You know that He appeared in order to take away sins; and in Him there is no sin. 6No one who abides in Him sins; no one who sins has seen Him or knows Him. 7Little children, make sure no one deceives you; the one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous; 8the one who practices sin is of the devil; for the devil has sinned from the beginning. The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil. 9No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10By this the children of God and the children of the devil are obvious: anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor the one who does not love his brother."
We were all sinners and we come short of the glory of God. we all had a bad start. But it doesn't matter how you started. What really matters is how you end up. Are we going to finish as sinners the day that we die, or are we going to TURN, turn from our wicked ways and follow Jesus Christ, stop sinning, obey Jesus, be born again of the Spirit of God, follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit, live righteousness and be pleasing to God?
The choice is ours. Not all men are unrighteous. Not all men are sinners. Those who have made a decision to LIVE, they TURN and they follow Jesus Christ until the very end, because the unrighteous will perish.
Are you a sinner or are you a righteous person? Are you following Jesus Christ until the end?
May Jesus bless you.

Real Christians do not involve themselves with Politics
Real Christians do not get involved with politics. they are not of the kingdoms of this world, neither of the political parties. They are of the kingdom of God. We are here to build the kingdom of God and to execute His will. Jesus taught us to pray:"Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done..." If we go and vote and exercise our own will, our own choice at the polls then we are not seeking the will of God, we are seeking our own opinion and our own will.
It is God Himself who appoints rulers and who takes them away. We have to build the kingdom of God, bring people into obedience to Jesus Christ.
If Jesus Christ reigns in our heart we become part of His kingdom and He determines our life. We are here to build the kingdom of God, not the kingdoms of this world. The kingdoms of this world will all pass away. There is only one Kingdom that will last for ever .
No man can serve two masters. Which kingdom are you part of? Are you part of the kingdoms of this world or are you part of the kingdom of God? Whom do you serve? Jesus Christ, or the kingdoms of this world that will perish? Where is your treasure? In heaven or here on earth?
May Jesus bless you.

Why most Christian believers are LOST
Many people call themselves Christians and they confess to believe in Jesus Christ but very few of those believers ever FOLLOW Jesus Christ. Very few of those OBEY Jesus Christ. Very few REPENT, STOP SINNING, are BAPTIZED IN WATER and receive the BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT. Even fewer of those FOLLOW the guidance of the Holy Spirit. They are NOT children of God.
The apostle Paul wrote in Romans 8:14 "those who are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God." We cannot follow Jesus Christ if we do not follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Many people study the Bible but studying the Bible is one thing, knowledge is one thing, but to follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit is quite another thing.
If we have not received the Holy Spirit and we are not guided by the Holy Spirit, we are not children of God. If we do not have the Spirit of Christ , the Holy Spirit, then we do not belong to Him. If we do not OBEY Him we do not love Him . If we do not follow Him we will not enter His kingdom. And that is what most believers neglect to do. They have been deceived into believing that if they just believe in the Name of Jesus they will have salvation. That is a LIE! We have to FOLLOW and OBEY Jesus Christ under guidance of the Holy Spirit, stay with Him and endure until the very end or else we will not enter the kingdom of God.
Most believers are deceived, they never follow Jesus Christ. They just become religious.
Are we following Jesus Christ? Do we KNOW the VOICE of Jesus Christ? Do we trust Him enough to follow Him and to do what He tells us to do without even referring to the Bible or asking the opinions of other believers? Are we truly following Jesus Christ? Or are we like most believers just deceiving ourselves?
May Jesus bless you.

Easy Salvation Options - Every church has it's own
Every church and denomination preaches their own option, their own way to salvation. That is why there are so many churches, big churches, small churches, popular churches, mega-churches, they all have different teachings but they all believe that their road leads to heaven.
There is only ONE WAY, and that is Jesus Christ. There is only one Door through which we will enter into heaven and that is the Man, God, Jesus Christ. Every knee will bow before Him. Every tongue will confess that He is Lord. Also those who despised Him and denied Him. They will confess in the end that He is LORD. In the end they will confess with great regret that Jesus Christ is LORD. We will all stand before Jesus. The only way that we will enter into the kingdom of Heaven and have salvation is if we OBEYED Him, is if we followed His way. His way is very clear, it is the GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST, His WORDS as recorded in the gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Those words are very clear. Those who disobey Jesus Christ will perish.
Most Christians disobey Jesus. They belong to some brand of Christianity, they follow some OPTION of salvation as preached by their church of choice, according to THEIR interpretation of the Bible, according to their LIKING. What really matters is: Did we OBEY Jesus Christ? Because He will say to most professing Christians: "Go away I never knew you, you workers of wickedness." They are ALL sinners. They say they cannot stop sinning. They use Bible verses to prove that they cannot stop sinning. They don't love the truth, they love their sin, and they love LIES, and that is why Jesus will turn them away.
There are no different options. There are not different ways. There are no different teachings that will lead to eternal life. There is only ONE WAY, and that is Jesus Christ. There is only ONE TEACHING and that is His teachings, that which He commanded. Those who disobey Jesus will PERISH. Those who obey Him will get to KNOW Him and He will give them His Holy Spirit in them to guide them and teach them and they will truly know Him and follow Him. They will become part of His kingdom, right here and now on this earth, but those who reject Him will be for ever LOST.
Are you following some teaching or your own opinion, your own insight into the Bible,? Or have you submitted yourself to Jesus Christ? Have you come to KNOW Him? Do you OBEY and FOLLOW Him, or will you be eternally, disillusioned, disappointed and regretful because you did not seek nor follow the truth? You rejected Jesus Christ!
Are you following Jesus Christ?
May Jesus bless you.

From the Heart
The gospel that is being preached in churches today is utter garbage. Churches preach a FORMULA to avoid hell and spend eternity in heaven with Jesus Christ. All of that is an utter LIE. Salvation is not about a formula. It is not about just believing in Jesus Christ and the story of the baby Jesus and how He was crucified for mankind and now if we believe in Jesus, we can have eternal life. That is a LIE.
The truth is that Jesus Christ is the manifestation of God Himself in the flesh and if we do not accept Him and obey His teachings, if we do not turn from sin and follow Jesus Christ, obey Him, if we do not truly love Him then we will not have eternal life. If we do not come to KNOW Jesus Christ for real and serve Him from the heart then we hope in vain, then the gospel that we have believed in will disappoint us because it is an utter LIE.
The truth is that if we obey the words of Jesus Christ, that He Himself delivered, the gospel of Christ, if we believe those words and obey them, repent, turn away from sin, seek Jesus with all our heart, be baptized in water, as He commanded, if we purify ourselves and open our hearts to Jesus, He will reveal Himself to us as REAL. We will get to know Him and He promised His Spirit, the Holy Spirit to come and dwell with us, Christ IN us, to guide us and to teach us and to give us wisdom and understanding, to reveal Himself to us and in us and through us, but if we do not love and serve Jesus Christ from the heart, seriously , with all that is in us, then we will not have eternal life!. If we do not have Jesus now then we will not have Him the day that we die. We will be LOST for eternity. We cannot fool Jesus, we cannot get to heaven by following some formula, a few steps, a recipe, one two three, that is a LIE from satan. We need to KNOW Jesus Christ the Living God for REAL and SERVE Him from our heart, every day. if you do not LOVE Him and if you do not SERVE Him He will say to you:"Go away, I never knew you" like He will say to most church people, believers who think they were Christians. They never knew Him and He will say to them:"Go away I never knew you, you workers of wickedness." We have to REPENT, turn away from our own ways and follow Jesus and LOVE Him more than life, then we will have eternal life, and if you don't love Jesus from the heart you are only fooling yourself, and then you hope in vain.
Get serious about Jesus Christ, seek Him with all your heart and all your power and follow Him, obey Him, love Him and DO what He commands you to do. Get serious with Jesus from the heart or perish.
May Jesus bless you.

Being a Christian Is Not Just Religion
Being a Christian is not just taking on religion, living according to a new rule book. It is a new way of living, it is companionship with Jesus Christ, constantly being aware of Him, asking His guidance and His wisdom, following His advice, living in a way that is pleasing to Him, seeking His approval all the time and He will speak to you in your spirit. It is not about walking around with Bible, quoting Bible verse, it is about walking with Jesus Christ in your heart, living to please Him, in everything considering Him, asking Him, His guidance, His approval. If you follow Jesus you do not seek the acceptance of men and you do not ask for their opinion because you are following the Master. You hear from Him and you do what He tells you to do. You do not consult with other people. You consult with Jesus and you follow Him every day of your life until the very end. Most believers do not know Jesus. The are not following Him. They are just religious.
Are we really following Jesus Christ or have we just got a form of godliness without Jesus Christ?
Jesus Christ is the WAY, He is the TRUTH He is the LIFE. If we are not in companionship, fellowship with Him, then we will not enter into the kingdom of heaven. We have to follow Him every day until the very end.
May Jesus bless you.

What is the Spirit SAYING?
God is SPIRIT and those who wish to worship Him must worship Him in Spirit and in TRUTH. He is the father of all spirits and He speaks to us, in our spirit. The Holy Spirit of God convicts the world of sin, righteousness and judgment and He calls us unto Him. He calls us to repentance to become obedient children who follow and who obey Him, so that we can spend eternity with Him. But the Spirit of God will not strive with man for ever. He will not keep on pleading with man for ever. There will come a day when our time is up .
The day that we die it is over. It is destined for man to die once and thereafter to face judgment. The Spirit of God is speaking to you and me. He speaks to us every day. Are we listening? What is the Spirit saying to us today? If we do not open the door and invite Him in, if we do not obey Him there will come a day when He will say to us:"When I knocked you would not open. When I called you would not answer. Now the door is closed for eternity." Do not wait too long. Open the door, invite Jesus in. Listen and obey Him and your soul will live.
What is the Spirit of God saying to you and me today? Are we listening?
May Jesus bless you.

Holy Spirit GIFTS without Jesus Christ
There are some believers who have the Holy Spirit but they do not have Jesus Christ. Some have received Spiritual
Gifts but they do not have the Giver. Once they received the gifts they thought that they have security of salvation. They said:"Lord, You give me the the Gifts and then I will take care of myself." They have turned away from Jesus Christ and they trust in the gifts that they received from Him. they have churches, ministries, and many people follow after these people. They exercise the gifts but neither they nor their followers are following Jesus Christ.
Jesus said that He will say to many in that day:"Go away I never knew you, " and they will say:"Lord, Lord we prophesied and we healed the sick, we cast out demons," and He will say to them:"Go away I never knew you." Many want the GIFTS but they don't want the GIVER.
God never takes back His gifts but if we do not follow Him, if we do not OBEY Him, we will PERISH. We have to OBEY Jesus, deny ourselves, pick up our cross and follow Him every day, or else He will turn us away. We will not enter His kingdom.
Without Jesus Christ we are LOST. We have to FOLLOW Him, OBEY Him and stay with Him until the very end.
May Jesus bless you.

Stay In His Presence
We are always BEFORE Jesus Christ but very few stay WITH HIM. Many believers go and pray and spend some time WITH Jesus but after they prayed they do not stay WITH Him. They go their own way and they follow their own mind, they go after their own things and they forget about Jesus. They are still before Him but they are not WITH Him.
Even those who have received the Holy Spirit, most of them do not stay IN HIS PRESENCE, they do not stay WITH Him. They do not follow after Him. They might set some time aside for prayer and meditation but then after they have spent that special time with Jesus, they leave Him, they ignore Him. They go their own way and they go and do other things.
We have to stay WITH Jesus, stay IN HIS PRESENCE. We are the temple of the Holy Spirit and He dwells in us but we have to STAY WITH HIM, we have to FOLLOW Him. We can only be pleasing to Him if we remain IN HIS PRESENCE, if we maintain that AWARENESS, stay FOCUSED on Him throughout the day, wherever we go, whatever we are , we must always have Jesus on our mind, do everything to please Him and ask His approval, His guidance in everything. We have to go where He sends us and do what He tells us, then we remain IN HIS PRESENCE, then we FOLLOW Him, very few do.
Do you stay in His presence? Do you stay WITH Jesus? Is your mind on Him, constantly? Or do you go away from Him from time to time?
We can only PLEASE HIM if we STAY WITH Him. We have to remain IN HIS PRESENCE.
May Jesus bless you.

Walk ALONE Walk With Jesus
Salvation is not just about repentance, to stop sinning and be holy. It is about FOLLOWING Jesus Christ and staying with Him until the very end. Without Jesus there is no hope, no life, no salvation.
If we do not follow Jesus Christ we will perish. Jesus Christ is the WAY and the TRUTH and the LIFE. If you stop sinning but you do not follow Jesus Christ then you will still not have eternal life. You have to follow and obey Jesus. Obey His words, repent , turn away from sin and TURN TO JESUS. Obey His words, be baptized in water for the washing off of your sin and then, deny yourself, pick up your cross every day and follow Jesus Christ. Go after Jesus Christ, whatever the cost, whether people might reject you, whether they might not like you, whether you are persecuted or not, you go with Jesus.
Jesus Christ promised the Holy Spirit to those who OBEY Him, the Spirit of TRUTH that He gives in those who repent and who are baptized. If we do not have the Spirit of Christ then we do not belong to Him. If we do not have the Holy Spirit we cannot follow Jesus Christ. Those who are lead by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God, and the Holy Spirit will not guide you into sin. He will guide you into doing the will of God, into bearing FRUIT. Jesus said that "without Me you can do nothing". It is the will of God that we bear much fruit, but we can only bear fruit if we follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit and we DO the WORKS that Jesus prepared for us, if we follow Him every day. But if we turn away from Him and follow our own mind then we are already in danger of hell fire. It is not just about to stop sinning, it is about following Jesus Christ. It is not about going to church and having Christian friends. It is a lonely walk on the straight and narrow road, a walk with Jesus Christ. The world will reject you, they will shun you. It doesn't matter, as long as you stay with Jesus Christ, that is all that matters.
When people start following Jesus Christ they become alone. The world rejects them. Family reject them. Churches reject them, so-called Christians reject them. If you follow Jesus Christ you will find yourself ALONE with Him most of the time.
Do not look for the fellowship or the company of other Christians. Look for the fellowship of Jesus Christ and to be pleasing to Him. Look for the guidance of the Holy Spirit, for the approval of Jesus Christ. That is all that matters, because without Jesus we have no life. Without Jesus Christ we are LOST.
Jesus Christ is the WAY. Obey Him and follow Him. Follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit every day until the very end.
May Jesus bless you.

LISTEN to the VOICE of GOD
Man shall not live from bread alone but from every word that proceeds from the MOUTH of God. God SPEAKS to all His creation but few listen. Those who LISTEN and who OBEY Him will LIVE but people refuse to listen to God. They ignore Him, they pretend that they do not hear Him.
Jesus Christ said that:"My sheep HEAR My VOICE and they FOLLOW Me."
People prefer not to listen to God. they prefer not to listen to Jesus Christ. They are not His sheep. They listen to other voices. They listen to other people. They listen to the evil one and therefor they perish.
God is speaking to each and everyone of us. The Holy Spirit convicts the whole world of sin, righteousness and judgment. If we LISTEN and OBEY we will LIVE, but if we keep on rejecting and ignoring Him we will perish.
Are we children of God? Do we listen to God? Do we listen to the Holy Spirit and obey Him? Or are we sons of the devil? Do we follow our own mind and do we listen to other people, do we listen to the devil? Who are we listening to? Do we listen to Jesus Christ and do we follow Him? He alone is the WAY the TRUTH and the LIFE. If we listen to Him and obey Him we will LIVE but if we reject Him we will perish.
Listen and your soul will LIVE.
May Jesus bless you.

Why Most Christians Are Unfruitful
Most Christian believers are nor fruitful for the kingdom of God and the reason why they are not fruitful is because they are not IN Christ. Jesus explained, as it is also recorded in the gospel of John chapter 15, that if we do not remain IN HIM, we cannot bear fruit. On our own we can do nothing. If we are not led by the Holy Spirit we cannot do what is pleasing to Him.
Most Christian believers are busy with other things. They are not WAITING on Jesus, they are not led by the Holy Spirit. The are doing Bible study, or they are listening to other people, or they are following their own minds. Their mind is not on Christ. They are not TUNED IN to the Holy Spirit and therefor they are UNFRUITFUL. We can only be fruitful in the kingdom of God if we are led by the Spirit of God and if we DO what the Holy Spirit guides us into doing. He will not force us, He will GUIDE us IF we follow Him, if we go after Him, if we SEEK the will of God, if we SEEK Jesus Christ in prayer, if our mind is on Him all the time, if we ask Him for wisdom and guidance and we stay focused on Him, then He can use us. Then He will speak to us. He will teach us, He will guide us, He will reveal new things to us, but if we go and seek for revelation or guidance or teaching from other places, if we listen to other people then we will not hear Jesus speaking to us. He will not compete with other voices.
His sheep listen to His voice and they follow Him. They WAIT on Him UNTIL He speaks to them, WHEN He speaks to them and they DO what He tells them to do. They are His SERVANTS and therefor they bear fruit.
Every tree that does not bear good fruit will get cut off and burned. Every branch in Christ that does not bear fruit will get cut off and burned.
Most believers are only concerned about THEIR salvation, THEIR dedication to Jesus, or to the church, THEIR Bible study. It is not about YOU or ME dear friend. It is about the kingdom of God, it is about the KING, Jesus Christ, WAITING on Him, LISTENING, OBEYING Him, being in tune with Him every moment of our lives. Nothing happens without purpose in the life of a child of God. He guides our footsteps. All things are His SERVANTS, and if out eyes are on Jesus and our hearts are PURE we will SEE God, we will see His hand, we will HEAR Him and we will RECOGNIZE His VOICE when He speaks to us.
Are we fruitful? Are we being led by the Holy Spirit? Are we doing what the Master commands us to do or are we just religious and deceiving ourselves? We have to seek His approval, His guidance, His peace, His wisdom. We have to seek Jesus Christ and stay IN HIM to be able to bear fruit.
How is our fruit? Is Jesus Christ pleased with our fruit?
May Jesus bless you.

The Same SPIRIT
There are many people in the world who call themselves Christians. They all say that they believe in Jesus Christ, they all use the same Bible but there is no unity among them. They belong to different churches and groups and they all have different teachings from the same Bible. They argue among each other about Scripture, about how they understand the Bible and what they believe. The truth is that these people do not know Jesus Christ because they ARE NOT OF THE SAME SPIRIT.
Those who are born again of the Spirit of Christ, those who have the Spirit of Christ, they are in UNITY because they are of the SAME SPIRIT. Those who do not have the Spirit of Christ do not belong to Him, they have different spirits. They do not have Salvation, they do not have Jesus Christ.
Jesus Christ said that His sheep listen to His voice and they follow Him. His sheep are of the SAME SPIRIT. They might come from different countries, they might speak different languages but they have the SAME SPIRIT, the Holy Spirit. Therefor they are ONE in Christ. They are not divided.
Are you born again? Have you received the Spirit of Christ? Are you of the SAME SPIRIT or do you not belong to Jesus Christ? Have you received the Holy Spirit?
May Jesus bless you.

The Bread of LIFE
Jesus Christ is the Bread of Life. Man shall not live from bread alone but from every word that proceeds from the MOUTH of God. Jesus is the Word of God, sent from the Father to bring us the Words of Eternal Life.
Those who believe in Jesus will never die but most people do not believe in Jesus even though they say they believe, because they do not OBEY His words. The words of Jesus, those words that He spoke, taught and commanded, are the words of Eternal Life. Those words, as also recorded in the gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, those are the words of Eternal Life. The words that Jesus Christ speaks through His Holy Spirit, in those who OBEY Him, who OBEY His words, who REPENT, who are BAPTIZED IN WATER and who have received the Holy Spirit, those are the words of Eternal Life.
Those who are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God, because they truly believe in Jesus Christ, but those who disobey the words of Jesus, who reject the Holy Spirit and who refuse to be led by the Holy Spirit, they will perish because they do not EAT the BREAD OF LIFE, THEY DO NOT accept Jesus Christ, they do not BELIEVE in Him. His words are the words of Eternal Life for those who OBEY Him, for those who TRULY believe in Him.
Do you believe in Jesus Christ? Do you OBEY Him, because if you do not OBEY His words you will PERISH. Do you EAT the Bread of Life every day and do you live by the words of Jesus Christ?
May Jesus bless you.

Sinning Believers Are Not Saved BAD SEED WEEDS
Most Christian believers are not saved. A person who is saved does not sin because he is born of the Spirit of God. Jesus Christ came to take away the sins of the world and those who accept Him and repent of sin are given the NEW BIRTH, they are BORN AGAIN, they are born of the SEED of God, so they CANNOT SIN because they are of God. They are of good seed, not of bad seed. If you plant good seed then you will get a good yield but if you plant weeds then you will grow weeds.
Most believers were planted by satan, not by Jesus Christ, that is why they sin, they are BAD SEED, They are TARES. Jesus gave us the parable of the TARES in Matthew 13:24 “He presented another parable to them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field. 25“But while men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed tares also among the wheat, and went away. 26“But when the wheat sprang up and bore grain, then the tares became evident also. 27“And the slaves of the landowner came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?’ 28“And he said to them, ‘An enemy has done this!’ And the slaves said to him, ‘Do you want us, then, to go and gather them up?’29“But he said, ‘No; lest while you are gathering up the tares, you may root up the wheat with them. 30‘Allow both to grow together until the harvest; and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, “First gather up the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them up; but gather the wheat into my barn.”’”
The difference between the wheat and the tares is that the wheat grows grain and the tares are just weeds. They SIN, they are not born of the Spirit of God, they are BAD SEED and therefor those believers who sin, who are SINNERS, who are of bad seed, will be burned, they will end up in hell. Many of them believe they are saved but they are SINNERS. They are no good for the kingdom of heaven, they will be cut off and burned.
If we are born again of the Spirit of God we do not sin because we are of different seed. We read the words of the apostle John in 1 John 3:5.
“You know that He (Jesus Christ) appeared in order to take away sins; and in Him there is no sin. 6No one who abides in Him sins; no one who sins has seen Him or knows Him. 7Little children, make sure no one deceives you; the one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous; 8the one who practices sin is of the devil; for the devil has sinned from the beginning. The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil. 9No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10By this the children of God and the children of the devil are obvious: anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor the one who does not love his brother.”
It is obvious who is a child of God and who is a son of the devil. It is obvious who is wheat and who is tares. It is obvious that those who practice righteousness are of God but those who sin are of the devil and they will perish. A believer who keeps on sinning is not born again, he is not saved, he is not a child of God and he will perish.
Are we SAVED from sin? Have we stopped sinning? Are we born again? Are we of the seed of God or are we just SINNERS? Because sinning believers are NOT SAVED. They will end up in hell if they do not REPENT and bear good fruit.
May Jesus bless you.

Those who DISOBEY Jesus Christ will PERISH
Those who disregard Jesus Christ will PERISH. Many people, many nations disregard Jesus Christ. There are nations that cling to their forefather spirits, and to teachings of the elders. There are many Christians who go after people, who run after the world, after psychology, after the customs of this world. They disregard Jesus Christ and they go after their own mind. They will PERISH.
Many of them call themselves Christians but they go after their own application and interpretation of the Bible, they go after their preachers and the teachings of their churches but they disregard the teachings and commands of Jesus Christ, they do not fear Him. They do not serve Him and they will perish.
There is only one way to eternal life and that is Jesus Christ, not only to believe IN Him but to OBEY Him. If we believe that Jesus Christ truly is whom He said that He is, that He is Lord and the Final Judge of men and that we will be judged by His words, His commands, then we will OBEY Him.
Those who disregard Jesus Christ and who disobey Him will not have eternal life. They will perish. You can read your Bible, you can go to church, you can be religious but if you do not obey and follow Jesus Christ you will perish.
Obey Jesus Christ, REPENT, STOP SINNING, be holy, be BAPTIZED IN WATER, be FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT and follow THE GUIDANCE of the Holy Spirit or you will certainly perish.
May Jesus bless you.

Stay On The Road
If you hear the confession and testimony of most believers today, they should all be in prison and they dare definitely heading for HELL because they say they cannot stop sinning, and they say it is impossible to stop sinning and we are all sinners.
So they are all CRIMINALS and should all be in PRISON and they will definitely end up in HELL.
They should not be allowed on the road. the should not be allowed to drive a motorcar because if they cannot stick to the rules of the road and if they cannot stay on the road they should not be allowed to drive because they are not only a danger to themselves but to other people also.
If we follow Jesus Christ and have the HOPE of salvation we have to stay on the STRAIGHT AND NARROW ROAD and we have to OBEY Him. We have to SIN NO MORE. No sinners will enter the kingdom of Heaven.
If you are one of those believers who believes that you cannot stop sinning then you do not know Jesus Christ and you are certainly on your way to HELL. Unless you REPENT, STOP SINNING and OBEY Jesus Christ, be BAPTIZED IN WATER, be FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT and FOLLOW the guidance of the Holy Spirit without sinning you will certainly end up in HELL.
Stay on the road or you will perish.
May Jesus bless you.
