Share and Give



Those of us who have become disciples
of Jesus Christ, who have come to know Him have the privilege and the
duty to share with others our testimony of Jesus Christ, that which
we have learned from Him, that which we have received from Him so
that we can encourage them to also follow Jesus Christ.
We are here to share our testimony and
to give them hope that it is possible to follow Jesus Christ, that He
is only one way to follow Jesus and that is to be a disciple. I thank
Jesus that He called me and He taught me His ways, so that I can
share with others, so that I can point them to Jesus, that I can
testify to them that Jesus Christ is real, He is alive and that if we
seek Him we find Him and He reveals Himself to us, that we can have a
real and living relationship with the living God, that we can know
Him.
I wish that I had somebody that could
teach me, what Jesus taught me, but I thank Him that He did teach me
His ways and that I can be here to encourage others to follow Him,
that I can be here to share with others that which Jesus has given to
me and what He is giving to me every day; all his mighty blessings,
the knowledge of the truth, the knowledge of Jesus Christ, the
revelation that He gives to us if we seek Him, and that I can give
others hope and inspire them to seek and follow Jesus. I'm here to
testify to you that Jesus Christ is the way. He is alive, He is real
and that He is calling you into relationship with Him that He wants
to make you a child of God, that He wants to bring you into the
kingdom of God, and I want to give you hope today, never give up.
Don't let anybody stop you, don't let anything stop you from running
to Jesus. Jesus loves you. He will never leave you, He will never
forsake you, but you must not leave Him. If you have left Him, if
you're backslidden, run back to Jesus. He will never reject you. He
will never show you a way. As long as you are alive there is still
hope. Run to Jesus. Seek Him with all your heart. Forget about the
past. We cannot do anything about the past, good or bad, but we can
live today and every other day that Jesus gives us for Him. Let us
put the past behind us and live every day from today onwards for
Jesus Christ, one day at a time. Let us not give up, but follow Him
until the very end because Jesus Christ is the only way.
May Jesus bless you.

My Mission



My mission is to make disciples of
Jesus Christ. That is the same mission that Jesus gave to His
disciples before He ascended. He said:"Go into all the world and
make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the
Father the Son and the Holy Ghost, and teaching them to observe all
that I commanded you." That is the mission that Jesus has given
to His followers, His disciples.
Jesus never commanded that we build
churches. He commanded that we make disciples, people who know Him
and who follow Him, people that obey His commands, His words, the
words that He delivered, the gospel of Jesus Christ, as also recorded
in the Gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Those are the words of
eternal life. The only way to have salvation is to obey Jesus Christ,
to obey His words, to repent and be baptized in water, and to live
according to His Commandments, His teachings; and if we do that, He
promised to give His Holy Spirit in us to be with us, to guide us and
to teach us. Jesus Christ Himself will come and dwell in and with us.
We will know Him for real and we will follow Him, serve Him and obey
Him, that is what
discipleship is all about.
The many Gospels that are being
preached by churches today are deception. To just believe in Jesus
Christ cannot save you. You have to obey His commands, obey his
teachings. You must become a disciple. You have to receive the
baptism in the Holy Spirit. You have to get to know Jesus Christ for
real. You have to be led by the Holy Spirit. Those who are being led
by the Spirit of God. They are the sons of God, they are children of
God. Most Christians are just believers, but they believe in vain
because they have no relationship with Jesus. They are not disciples.
They do not follow nor obey Him. Many are just Bible students. Many
are just religious, but they have no knowledge of God. They do not
live in holiness and in obedience to Jesus. They are sinners. They
are the same as the rest of the world. They just believe that they
have salvation, but they do not have Jesus they do not have
salvation. The only way to have salvation, to have the hope of
eternal life, is to know Jesus Christ for real and we have to obey
His words. We have to seek Him with all our heart and then He will
reveal Himself to us. He will become real to us. We will hear His
voice and we will be able to follow Him.
Jesus said to Nicodemus that unless a
man is born again he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven, he cannot
see the kingdom of heaven. Most professing Christians are not born
again. They have no vision of the kingdom of heaven, they do not know
Jesus Christ. They are lost but they believe that they have
salvation. The only way to have salvation is to have Jesus, to know
Him for real, to hear His voice,
follow Him, to have a real relationship
with Jesus, to be a disciple.
Jesus is alive and those who know Him,
follow Him, but most professing Christians do not know Jesus Christ.
Are you a disciple? Do you know Jesus Christ? Have you repented and
been baptized? Have you received the Holy Spirit? Have you received
the Spirit of Christ in you? Is He dwelling in you? Do you listen to
Him and obey Him? Do you follow Him every day? If you don't you have
no hope of salvation and you are on a terrible road to destruction.
There's only one way. Get to know Jesus Christ. Follow and obey Him
until the very end, or else you will end up in hell.
May Jesus bless you.

False Teachings of Tithes, Sabbath and Law



The kingdom of God is not about tithing
and about keeping the law of Moses, observing the Sabbath. It is
about serving the King, Jesus Christ. It is about living in close
relationship with Him, under guidance of the Holy Spirit. The kingdom
of God is not about money, but the kingdoms of church are about
money.
Jesus did not command His disciples to
go all over the world, start churches and sign up the members up to
pay tithes. He commanded His disciples to go all over the world and
preach the gospel, His words, His commands, the words that He spoke,
and to make disciples of all nations to baptize them in the Name of
the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Jesus commanded His
disciples to make disciples, not to build churches, and that is what
the secular churches are doing today. They are not of the kingdom of
God. They are building their own kingdoms and they demand of members
to pray tithes, and more, to them. It is all about money. It is not
about the kingdom of God. It is not about bringing people into
relationship with Jesus, because they themselves do not know Jesus
Christ.
Jesus did not preach money, tithes and
Sabbath, and keeping the law of Moses. He preached the kingdom. He
said:"Follow Me." Jesus promised the Holy Spirit, the
Comforter, to those who obey His gospel, to those who believe,
repent, and are baptized in water, He promised that He would give His
Holy Spirit, to be with them, in them, and to guide them. They will
live in communion with Him, He will reveal Himself to them, and they
will know them for real. The kingdom of God is about our relationship
with Jesus Christ, knowing Him for real, serving Him as Lord and
Master. It is not about money. It is not about organizations. It is
not about fellowship with other believers. Those are all the
teachings of the church community, of the churches, people that do
not know Jesus Christ. They use the gospel for their own benefit.
Jesus does not require of us 10%, He requires of us to submit
ourselves to Him 100%, and to follow Him, to abandon our own ways, to
forsake our own desires, and to go after Him; to stop sinning, to
stop going after the pleasures of sin, and to seek His kingdom, His
righteousness, His approval, to follow Him every day, not to observe
special days, Sabbath's and feast days, but to follow and obey Him.
Jesus Christ did not teach the Law. He
gave the words of eternal life, His words as they are also recorded
in the Gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, the commands of Jesus.
To those who obey His words, those are the words of eternal life.
Those words will judge each and everyone. Those who disregard His
words will perish. The kingdom of God is about serving and obeying
Jesus Christ. Do not be deceived by churches, that teach you that you
must pay tithes that you must obey the Sabbath, that you must keep
the Ten Commandments.
We have to obey the words of Jesus to
have eternal life. There is no other way. Jesus Christ is the way, He
is the truth, He is the life. If you want eternal life you must obey
Jesus Christ. Obey His words, repent and be baptized, seek Him with
all your heart. He will give his Holy Spirit in you, to teach and
guide you, and if you follow Him until the very end you, will have
eternal life. Jesus Christ alone is the way. His words alone are the
words of eternal life. Obey Him and you will live, you will have
eternal life.
May Jesus bless you.

Celibacy Homelessness and other Discipleship Fallacies



Many people have been led to believe
that if they want to serve the kingdom of God and be pleasing to
Jesus they must become celibate, in other words, not marry, remain
single, or they must become homeless, desert their family and
responsibilities, and become homeless to follow Jesus. Others believe
that they must become a priest, or a monk, or a nun, or a pastor in
order to serve God, That
is not the truth.
We cannot serve the kingdom of life by
becoming celibate or becoming a pastor or a priest or a nun. We serve
Jesus Christ through our relationship with Him. The only way that we
can please Jesus is if we follow Him, if we do what is pleasing to
Him. In order to do that we must have a close relationship with Him,
we must be led by the Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ will lead us and
He will guide us, and He will use us for His kingdom. many people
have decided to be celibate, to become a priest, or a nun, or a
pastor, or to desert their family and give up their jobs and they
lifestyle and go after some theory. We cannot serve Jesus if we do
not live in close relationship with Him. We cannot be pleasing to Him
if we are not guided by the Holy Spirit. Jesus will teach and guide
us and He will use us for His kingdom if we submit to Him, if we obey
His words but firstly we need to get to know Him. We need to repent,
be baptized in water. We need to be born again, be filled with the
Holy Spirit and then Jesus will guide us. He will never force us. He
will guide us into that which He has planned for us. He will not take
us away from our responsibilities. He will not cause us to break up a
marriage. He will take us from where we come from where we have found
him, and he will transform us. He will teach us and He will guide us
and He will gently guide us into His purpose for our lives. Many
people have become bitter against God because they have followed an
ideology, they have followed their own minds, they have built up
theories from reading of the writings of Paul who said that it's
better for a man not to marry but to remain single. Truly it is
better to be single if you really want to dedicate your life to
Jesus, but if that is not what He requires of you then you are doing
a sacrifice which is not pleasing to Him.
We need to be led by the Holy Spirit.
We need to follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit. God made us men
and women, He made the family and we as parents need to bring up the
next generation of children of God, of God-fearing people. We need to
let our light shine. We need to make our contribution in this world
in the way that Jesus tells us to do so. When you follow Jesus He
will guide you into which job to take. He will guide you into where
to live, whom to get married to. He will guide your footsteps, but
you need to follow Him. You cannot direct your own life in such a way
that you are pleasing to God if you do not hear from God. The only
way to be pleasing to Jesus is to work your relationship with Him. To
stay close to Him, to be led by the Holy Spirit, to seek His guidance
in all things, and He will use you, He will guide you.
My wife and I are both disciples of
Jesus and He guides us, but we each have our own relationship with
Jesus. We do not follow after each other. We follow Jesus, but He put
us together as a team, and we need to stay focused on Him in order
for Him to use us. If we look at pleasing each other instead of being
pleasing to Jesus, then we cannot be pleasing to Him. Jesus must be
the first priority in our lives. Do not follow after your own mind or
after what other people say. You need to follow after Jesus to be
pleasing to Him. You need to hear from Him and He speaksvery clearly.
Jesus often tells me the same thing three times, just to make sure
that I got the message. Jesus speaks loud and clear, but we have to
be serious about following Him.
Follow after Jesus and not after
people. If you're not sure about something that you've heard from the
Lord, ask Him and He will confirm it to you again, because He wants
to teach us. He wants to guide us and He wants us to bear fruit for
His kingdom, but we can only do that if we stay with Him, stay
focused on Him, listen to Him and follow Him alone. Jesus alone is
the way the truth and the life and in Him we will have peace, when we
follow Him and do His will.
May Jesus bless you.

The Religious Mindset Cannot Please God



The religious mindset cannot please God
because it does not submit to God. It cannot subject itself to the
guidance of the Holy Spirit and that is why religious people do not
follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit. We need to get rid of our
religious mindset and be willing to trust and follow the guidance of
the Holy Spirit.
In this regard I want to ask you to go
and read Acts chapter 10 about the Italian a Centurion and Peter. The
Italian Centurion feared God and he sought the will of God and
therefore God sent an angel to come and tell him to go and look for a
man called Peter who was in Joppa and to fetch him to his house which
he also did. But at the same time Peter was praying on the roof of
the house where he lived in, and he had a vision. He became a very
hungry and from heaven came a sheet with all kinds of animals on it
and a voice said to him "Slaughter and eat." This happened
three times. now Peter was a devout Jew and he would not eat anything
that was unholy. Some animals like pigs are unholy for the Jews but
the voice told him to slaughter and eat everything. So he understood
that this was a message from God. He was still very perplexed about
this vision when the men from Cornelius came and knocked on the door
and when Peter went down and saw the and heard what they told him
that Cornelius wanted him to come to his house, that he who was a Jew
who had no communion with other nations was called by God, instructed
by God to go to the house of Cornelius, which he did.
So the next morning they set out and
came to the house of Cornelius who had brought together all his
friends and family to come and listen to Peter, and Peter who would
normally not have preached the gospel to Gentiles, he preached the
gospel of Jesus Christ to them and while they were listening the Holy
Spirit came on them, and they started speaking in tongues just like
Peter and the others did on the day of Pentecost. So Peter baptized
them in water, which otherwise he would not have done because
salvation is from the Jews and even though Jesus commanded the
disciples to go into all the world and preach the gospel to all
nations, they were still reluctant to preach to other nations. When
Peter got back to Jerusalem he had to explain to the other Jewish
disciples why he had baptized Gentiles because they themselves had a
religious mindset. They did not understand that it was about doing
the will of God and not about being religious.
The religious mindset prevents us from
doing the will of God. Many people are religious and they act
according to religious rules, they act according to what they've read
in the Bible and their understanding of it but because they do not
follow guidance of the Holy Spirit, they do not, and they cannot
please God. We see here that Peter obeyed the guidance of the Holy
Spirit. He did what the Holy Spirit told him to do. He went to
gentiles which he otherwise would not have done and he went into
their house which is not proper for a Jewish man to do. He shared the
gospel with them because the Holy Spirit told him to do so. The Holy
Spirit confirmed the message of the kingdom by baptizing and these
Gentiles in the Holy Spirit, the very same as He did the disciples
who were Jewish, and Peter therefore baptized them in water which
otherwise he would not have done.
The religious mindset cannot please
God. We need to be led by the Holy Spirit and not by our religious
mindset. If we do not follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit we
cannot please Jesus Christ and that is why many Christians, many
believers perform dead works, they are not doing the will of God
because they are not following the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Those
who are being led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God,
they do the will of God. They do not follow after the religious
mindset or their own interpretation of the Bible, or even their own
mind. They listen to, follow and obey the Holy Spirit.
Are we just religious? Do we have a
religious mindset or are we led by the Holy Spirit? Are we truly sons
of God? Are we children of God who follow the guidance of the Holy
Spirit?
May Jesus bless you.

Jesus caught me when I fell



The ways of the Lord Jesus are
wonderful, but if we are not pure in heart and if we do not focus on
Jesus then we fail to see His hand in our lives. When we accept Jesus
as our Lord and Master and we entrust ourselves into His hand, then
we belong to Him and whatever happens to us is from the hand of God,
whether it be good or bad, because we follow Jesus. He goes ahead of
us and we must experience everything that He takes us through because
He guides us and He teaches us and He uses us for His kingdom, if we
are dedicated to Him.
I have recently been very sick I was in
hospital for more than a month. I was in ICU and I went through a lot
of pain and suffering. Twice I died they had to resuscitate me, but
in that time I had the opportunity to witness for Jesus to so many
people. I experienced Jesus. He spoke to me. He taught me so many
new things, even though I was in pain and I am still in pain. The
reason why I went into surgery was in preparation for radiation to
rectal cancer. I don't know why I have the cancer. I've prayed for
many people and seen them healed instantaneously. Jesus has healed me
also instantaneously previously. I prayed when I was in trouble or
sickness but Jesus has a purpose with everything. I am still not
completely healed and I'm still in pain but I accept from Jesus the
good and the bad and I know that He has a purpose with it. When I
came out of hospital I was too weak to walk. I had to learn to do
everything again, learn to brush my teeth, learn to sit up, learn to
walk again, and I am slowly regaining my powers. I had to learn to
walk again with a walker and I'm walking but I'm not strong yet.
The other day we went out and when we
came back as I came into the house I stumbled on the steps and I
fell. But here's the wonderful thing. It just struck me that it was
the second time in my life that I remember that I fell and I was not
hurt in the least. The angels of the Lord caught me before I got
hurt. A few months ago I was on a construction site and I slipped and
fell on the debris. Now there were some very sharp objects and I
could have hurt myself badly but I was not even hurt in the
slightest, and the other day when I fell on the steps I was also not
hurt in the least, not a mark not a scratch. We can be as careful as
we wish, but if the Lord does not protect us then we will get hurt,
we will get killed, we will suffer loss, but the wonderful thing is
this that if we follow Jesus and we are committed to Him then we are
held in the hollow of his hand. Isn't that wonderful? He keeps and
protects His own and He takes them through valleys of darkness. He
goes with them when they go through temptation and suffering.
We will get tested and we will get
tried but here is the question: Do we maintain our faith in Jesus?
Are we focused on Him? Do we see His hand? Because if we don't, if we
do not stay focused on Jesus and trust Him, we will never see His
hand, we will never learn anything, but if we are focused on Jesus
and seek to please Him, then we experience Him constantly and we have
the joy and the peace in our hearts of knowing that whatever we go
through, whatever we suffer, Jesus is there. He is with us because He
has a purpose with everything, we belong to Him. I praise Jesus for
His goodness and mercy, that I may know Him, that I may be His
servant, because I'm undeserving, and I want to encourage you to
fully trust in Jesus, to put your focus on Him, to seek Him with all
your heart and you will see Him. You will see Him in the pain. You
will see Him in the suffering. You will see Him in the storms, you
will see Him everywhere, and you will experience Jesus all the time.
You will have the peace of Jesus in your heart, knowing that he is
faithful ,that He will never let go of you but we have to stay with
Him. We have to be faithful to Him and endure with Him until the very
end.
What a wonderful Lord and Master we
serve, Jesus Christ my Lord and my King.
May Jesus bless you.

Learning the Lord's Ways



Most professing Christians never get to
know Jesus Christ, neither do they walk in His ways. Jesus is God. He
is a holy God and He requires of us that we follow and obey Him, that
we trust Him, that we live in holiness and that we get to know His
ways through our relationship with Him. But most professing
Christians never follow Jesus Christ. They read the Bible, they
become religious, but they are worldly in their ways. They do not
walk in the ways of the Lord.
We read in the book of Hebrews about
the children of Israel, that God led out of Egypt out of bondage
with many signs and wonders and He took care of them in the
wilderness for forty years, but in that time they never got to know
His ways. They did not repent from their evil ways and therefor they
perished in the wilderness.
I read for us from Hebrews chapter 3
verse 7:"Therefore just as the Holy Spirit says:Today if you
hear His voice, do not harden your hearts, as when they provoked Me,
as in the day of trial in the wilderness, where your fathers tried Me
by testing me and saw my works for 40 years. Therefore I was angry
with this generation and said:'They always go astray in their heart
and they did not know My ways, as I swore in my wrath, they shall not
enter My rest.'"
God led the children of Israel out of
bondage through the Red Sea by many signs and wonders in the
wilderness and He was taking them to the promised land but they did
not forsake their evil ways. They kept on sinning. They kept on
longing back to the fleshpots of Egypt just like most Christians.
Jesus Christ set them free from the bondage of sin, He accepted them
as children of God. Many of them were born again but then they keep
on longing to go back to the world and they stay in their worldly
ways, they refused to stop sinning and because of that they will
perish.
I read further verse 12: "Take
care brethren that there not be in any one of you an evil unbelieving
heart, that falls away from the Living God, but encourage one another
day after day as long as it is still called today, so that none of
you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. For we have become
partakers of Christ if we hold fast the beginning of our assurance
firm until the end. While it is said:"Today if you hear His
voice, do not harden your hearts as when they provoked Me." For
who provoked Him when they had heard? Indeed did not all those who
came out of Egypt, led by Moses, and with whom was He angry for 40
years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the
wilderness and to whom did He swear that they would not enter his
rest, but to those who were disobedient? So we see that they were not
able to enter because of unbelief." They never believed in God,
they never believed that He could take care of them even in the
wilderness. They kept on moaning and complaining and in the end that
whole generation that God led out of Egypt perished in the wilderness
and only their children went through into the Promised Land under the
leadership of Joshua. The very same today, most professing Christians
are living in sin. They do not believe that they can follow Jesus
Christ as disciples. They do not believe that Jesus can take a care
of them, that He can guide them, and teach them. They hang on to the
things and the ways of the world, because they do not really believe.
They do not stop sinning. They are conformed to the world and it is
this generation that is provoking God, they will fall they will
perish they will end up in hell because they refuse to believe, they
refuse to obey Jesus, they refuse to trust Him. They refuse to repent
of their evil ways and obey Jesus Christ,
Are we like the children of Israel? Do
we refuse to follow Jesus? Are we only serving Jesus with lip
service,or are we learning every day to trust in Him. Are we
following Him, trusting Him, obeying Him and living in His ways. If
we don't we will perish like those unbelieving disobedient children
of Israel. Let this serve as a warning to us to follow Jesus Christ
as disciples and to serve Him as Lord and Master with all our heart.
May Jesus bless you.

Salvation is not a formula or series of actions



Salvation is not a formula. I it is not
a series of steps that you take. It is not just believing in Jesus
Christ. Salvation is is knowing the Living God, Jesus Christ, and
serving Him, obeying Him, being in the right relationship with Him.
Jesus Christ is alive and if we do not know Him, follow Him and obey
Him, we will not have salvation. Jesus Christ is the way and He
teaches us the way. He shows us the way.
We have to know Him and follow Him.
Believers have been taught to believe in some theology, a series of
steps that they take and then they have salvation; believing in Jesus
and then they have salvation, that is not the truth. Salvation is
about our relationship with Jesus Christ, because He is the Living
God. He speaks. His sheep hear His voice and they listen to Him.
Salvation is not just a theory or a
methodology, it is Jesus Christ. It is the same as your relationship
with any other person. You have to work on your relationship, you
have to secure your relationship. You have to make sure that your
relationship is right. If you do not work on your relationship it
will die.
Most believers have no relationship
with Jesus Christ. They have never met Him. There are conditions to
our relationship with Jesus Christ. Firstly we have to believe that
He is whom He said He is, that He is God, and if we believe that
Jesus Christ is Lord, then we must obey His words, the words that He
spoke, that He delivered, as they are also recorded in the Gospels
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. If we truly believe in Jesus we will
obey Him; we will repent, turn away from sin, turn away from our own
ways, turn to Jesus, seek Him with all our heart,. Obey Him, be
baptized in water, and then He will reveal Himself to us. He will
become real to us, we will know Him for real. We will have a real
relationship with Him and that relationship has to grow through our
fellowship with Him, daily walking with Him, listening to Him,
obeying Him. If you have not made that connection with Jesus, that
you truly know Him, then you do not have salvation. You can read the
Bible as much as you want. You can apply biblical principles as much
as you want. You can be as religious as you possibly can, but if you
do not know Jesus Christ He will say to you when you die:"Go
away I never knew you."
We have to seek Jesus, we have to obey
His commands. We have to go after Him and He will reveal Himself to
us. He will speak to us every day. You have to forget everything
that you've heard that you've learned and you've got to get to know
Jesus Christ. It is useless to know Bible verses, to know the Bible,
to go to church, to belong to a church, to have a fellowship with
your church club members, if you do not have that relationship with
Jesus, if you do not know Him. There is one vital relationship and
that is your relationship with Jesus Christ. If that is missing then
you do not have any hope of salvation. You have to know follow and
obey Jesus Christ. Without Jesus Christ we have no hope, no future,
no expectation. D
Do you know Jesus? Have you come to
know Him for real? How is your relationship with Jesus Christ? Are
you following and obeying Him? Are you living for the kingdom of God?
May Jesus bless you.

Jesus will speak to you





Jesus guides, speaks to, and teaches
each and every disciple that follows Him. Jesus calls us to
discipleship. He says:" Follow Me." Most believers do not
know Jesus. They believe some gospel by which they are saved if they
just believe in Jesus Christ, and that is a false gospel.
The true gospel of Jesus Christ is
about following Him, obeying Him, being led by the Holy Spirit. Jesus
said to the disciples that He will not leave them as orphans but He
will send the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, His own Spirit, to come and
dwell in them, to be with them for ever; to teach and guide them and
that was promised to each and every person who accepts Jesus Christ
and who follows Him, who obeys Him, who repents, turns to Jesus,
seeks Him with all his heart, is baptized in water, Jesus will guide
him. He will speak to him. If we need wisdom we must ask of Jesus and
He will give freely. How can we follow Him if we do not hear Him, if
we are not led by the Holy Spirit? We cannot just go by reading the
Bible and assuming certain things. We have to hear from Him.
His sheep hear His voice. They listen
to Him. They follow Him. If we seek Him, we find Him. If we are
serious about following Him He will guide us, but we must seek the
kingdom of God. We must seek to follow Him. We must seek His will,
not our own will, not our own desires, not our own plans, not own
ambitions. If we're not seeking the kingdom of God then we are not
serious about following Jesus Christ and He will not answer us. If we
ask him about our own affairs He will not answer us, but He will
guide us into all truth, He will guide us into His will, He will
guide us into fruitfulness for His kingdom. Jesus will speak to each
and every one of us if we would just seek Him with all our heart and
seek His will, His kingdom, His righteousness, His approval, then He
will speak to us. We will clearly hear Him, but we have to seek His
will, we have to seek His kingdom, not our own. Jesus guides each and
every disciple. That is what he calls us for. He guides us into being
obedient children of God that do the will of God, that build the
kingdom of God, that are occupied with the kingdom of God, but we
have to set our mind, our heart, our everything, on Jesus and seek to
please Him. Then He will reveal Himself to us.
Many think that they can use Jesus for
their own benefit, to enrich themselves. God is not fooled. We have
to seek His kingdom, His will, His approval. He will speak to us, He
will reveal Himself to us and we will get to know Him for real. The
true child of God hears from God every day. The truth child of God is
led by the Holy Spirit. Those who assume that they are saved will
have a terrible surprise when Jesus says to them on the day that they
die:"Go way I never knew you." We have to know Him, hear
from Him and be led by Him. Seek Him with all your heart and He will
reveal Himself to you.
May Jesus bless you.

A Word from the Lord



A child of God wants to, and hears from
his Father. He hears from God. Jesus said: "My sheep hear My
voice and they follow Me." Man shall not live from bread alone
but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. A true
child of God wants to hear from God Himself, wants to hear from Jesus
Christ all the time because He is a disciple, he is a follower of
Jesus, and he lives from every word that proceeds from the mouth of
Jesus.
Many believers I think that God speaks
through the Bible, or through their pastor or through other people,
they have not been taught to listen to Jesus. To them Jesus is not
real. They do not know Him and they do not listen to Him. They do not
follow Him, but Jesus wants to speak to each and every one who comes
to Him, who accepts Him as Lord and Master. We have to wait on Jesus,
trust Him, listen to Him and He will speak to us, in all
circumstances, at any time, but we must be tuned in and attentive
waiting on Him.
Recently I was in hospital. I was very
sick lying in ICU and Jesus spoke to me. He told me things about the
future. He said to me that I've got much work to do. Even though I
was sick to death and twice I almost died, He had a purpose with me
while I was in hospital. I could witness for Him to many people whom
otherwise I would never have reached. It is all in God's plan.
We have to be tuned in to Jesus,
trusting Him, in all circumstances. Waiting on Him, listening, and He
will speak to us. He will guide us and He will use us for His
kingdom and we will bear fruit that brings glory unto Him. If we do
not hear His voice, if we do not listen, if we do not follow Him, if
we do not remain in Him, we cannot bear fruit for the kingdom of God
because then we don't know Him and he will say to many believers:"Go
away I never knew you you workers of iniquity" because they
didn't listen to Him. They went their own way, they followed their
own mind they listened to other people. They never received a word
from the Lord. The Lord is speaking toyou now. If you will just
listen you will hear. Trust Him, wait on Him and listen. He will
speak in your spirit and you will hear Him loud and clear. Jesus
speaks to His sheep

The Disciple's Biggest Enemy



The disciple's our biggest enemy is the
church people, the organized religion, because they do not belong to
Jesus and neither do they follow Jesus Christ. Jesus does not call us
into fellowship with other believers. He calls us to follow Him. The
church people follow their pastor of the church and the doctrines of
their church. Religious people follow their own mind and their own
interpretation of the Bible, but those who follow Jesus Christ are
led by the Holy Spirit. Their only priority is to please Jesus they
hear his voice they listen to Him and they follow Him.
That does not fit in with church.
Church wants you to serve the church organization and submit to the
leadership of the church, which is Antichrist. When we become
disciples of Jesus Christ, we submit ourselves to Jesus. we become
part of His kingdom and we serve Him,. You cannot serve two
masters. You either follow Jesus Christ
and please Him or you become part of a church.
Church organizations are part of the
secular system. They serve the secular system and they serve secular
people. They are not about the kingdom of God. They hate you when you
follow Jesus Christ. They hate you when you do not belong to the
system, when you are not part of a secular church system, because
Jesus said that we will be hated by all people if we follow Him.
It was the church people the religious
people, that had Jesus crucified. They did not know God and they did
not recognize Jesus Christ. If we follow Jesus Christ, our biggest
enemy will be the church people.
If you want to follow Jesus Christ you
have to get out of church and serve Him alone. Jesus Christ alone is
the way the truth and the life. The only way to follow Jesus is to be
a disciple. Those who are being led by the Spirit of God, they are
the children of God, and they are not accepted by the world. They are
hated by the world and the secular church system.
Jesus Christ is the only way. Follow
Him and you will have life.
May Jesus bless you.

Don't follow after other Christians



Most Christian believers have a
favorite pastors or preachers, have a favorite Bible translation and
versions. They read the books of spiritual leaders. All of those
things do not bring us closer to Jesus. We need to go to Jesus Christ
Himself. Following after other people will not bring us into the
kingdom of heaven. It is all about our relationship with Jesus
Christ, knowing Him, following Him and obeying Him.
We need to seek Jesus. We need to seek
our counsel and our guidance from Him. If we need wisdom and
guidance, we just need to go on our knees and pray and ask Jesus.
Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven. He is the only one who can
guide us into His kingdom. Do not look to other people, look to
Jesus.
Seek Him with all your heart and you
will find Him. If we draw closer to Him, He draws closer to us. If we
seek Him we find Him. All we need is Jesus. He's the Living God. He
cares for you and He will answer you if you seek Him with your whole
heart. Seek Jesus, follow Him, go after Him and you will live.
May Jesus bless you.

Most Christians do not believe



Most professing Christians do not
really believe that Jesus Christ is Lord. They do not believe that He
is the final authority and that He will judge all mankind. They do
not really believe His words They just believe in some gospel that is
not the truth.
Jesus Christ is the only way. If we
believe in Him and we believe that He is Lord, then we must obey Him
or else we will perish. Even His disciples that not all believe and
on one occasion Jesus said to them that:"Some of you do not
believe." At one point, when many of His disciples left Him, He
said to the twelve:"Do you not also want to leave Me?" and
Peter said to Him:"Lord, where shall we go? You have the words
of eternal life."
The words of Jesus are the words of
eternal life for those who obey Him, for those who obey His
Commandments, for those who repent and are baptized, who turn from
their own wicked ways and their own selfish ways, and they go after
Jesus. He gives His Spirit in them to teach and guide them. They get
to know Him for real. They follow Him and they become part of His
kingdom, because they really believe. If we do not obey the words of
Jesus as recorded also in the gospel Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
then we do not really believe, and we are deceiving ourselves. Many
go to church, they read the Bible they belong to a church and they
believe that they are saved because, they believe in Jesus but they
do not really believe because they do not obey Him. They do not know
Him, they do not follow Him. His sheep hear His voice. They listen to
Him and follow Him.
Are we one of His sheep? Do we hear His
voice? Do we follow and obey Him? Do we truly believe in Jesus
Christ?
May Jesus bless you.

The False Grace Gospel



There is only one Savior. There's only
one Lord and Master and that is Jesus Christ. There is only one
gospel that can save from hell and damnation and that is the words of
Jesus Christ; to believe in Him, to follow Him and to obey Him.
His words alone are the words of
eternal life as they are recorded in the gospel Matthew, Mark, Luke
and John. The words that He delivered Himself are the words of life
to those who obey Him; to repent and be baptized, and to live in
holiness and righteousness as Jesus commanded, to seek Him with all
our heart and He will reveal Himself to us. He will give His Holy
Spirit in us to teach us and to guide us and we will know Him for
real.
There is no other gospel that can save.
Religious people have concocted, have made up other gospels from the
words of the Apostles, Paul and the others, that you can be saved and
have salvation security by just believing in Jesus. That is a lie.
You have to know Him and know Him for real.
He will say to many people on that day
that they die: "Go away, I never knew you." They believed
that they were saved and they believed that they had salvation, they
knew many Bible verses to prove their salvation, but they never knew
Jesus Christ.
Without Jesus we can do nothing. We
have to follow and obey Him. We have to know Him for real. He is away
and the life and the truth, there is no other way. His words alone
are the words of eternal life. If we do not obey Him we will perish.
Do not be deceived, get to know Jesus for real. Seek Him with all
your heart until you find Him.
Follow Him until the very end or else
you will perish. There is only one way and that is Jesus Christ.
May Jesus bless you.

We are not all called to preach



We are not all called to be preachers
but all of us who follow Jesus Christ will be disciples, and we will
be witnesses for Him. I've just come out of hospital and I've been
there for an extended time. I was in ICU for more than four weeks,
but it was all by the plan of our Lord and Master, because He sent me
in there to be His witness.
I had the opportunity to witness to so
many nurses and doctors and hospital personnel. We are here to be
witnesses for Jesus and He gives us the opportunity to witness for
Him. If we love Jesus Christ and He is our life, then we will use
every opportunity to witness for Him and to shine for Him. The first
thing that nurses normally asked me is where do I come from, because
I've got an accent, and then I tell them I come from South Africa,
and they ask me why am I here and then I say because God sent me.
Then I can start and I can give them my whole testimony how I had a
heart attack and I died and I went to hell, even though I was a
Christian and I thought I was saved. I can share with him how I truly
got to know Jesus Christ and how He sent me to come and share the
true gospel of Jesus Christ. It is our duty and our privilege to be
witnesses for Jesus.
You do not learn to witness for Jesus.
You witness for Jesus Christ because He is real to you, because He is
your Lord and Master, because He is your life, because you truly
believe in Him. We are not all called to preach but we are all called
to be witnesses for Jesus, and if we do not witness for Him and if
our light does not shine for Him, then we are not worthy of Him.
Jesus said that if we deny Him, He will certainly also deny us. It is
easy for us to talk about other things, about our achievements, about
our country, about our children, about our family and about our
education, about our work, but those things are not important. What
is important, is Jesus Christ and His kingdom.
If Jesus is the center of our life and
then that is what we will be talking about. We will not struggle to
witness for Jesus. Jesus will be the first name and the first thing
on our tongue when we speak to people. We will be living witnesses
for Jesus Christ. We witness for Jesus because He is real to us,
because He is our Lord and Master, because He is our life and if we
do not have that desire to constantly witness for Jesus and talk
about Jesus then our relationship with Him is just not right.
Is our relationship with Jesus right?
Are we shining lights for Him? Are we worthy ambassadors for the
kingdom of God? Do we truly know Him and therefore do we witness
about Him? If we do not know Jesus for real and if we do not follow
Him and do not witness for Him then He will one day say to us:"Go
away, I never knew you."
Do we really know Jesus? Do we love Him
and are we worthy witnesses for Him. Jesus is Lord. He is King of
kings and Lord of lords. Jesus Christ is the final authority. He is
God Almighty. Every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that
Jesus Christ is Lord, and we must proclaim his name we must proclaim
His kingdom and proclaim His glory.
May Jesus bless you.
