YOU WILL BE DISCIPLINED


Every born again child of God will be
disciplined. The Father loves us and wants every child to share in
His holiness. Therefor He will discipline and train us, correct us so
that we can learn His ways and walk in His ways.
Many Christians
do not recognize the hand of God. Others reject His discipline and
refuse to be corrected, and therefor they perish, like Esau, who was
a fornicator.
None describes the discipline of the Father
better than the writer of Hebrews in Hebrews 12:4-17
"4You
have not yet resisted to the point of shedding blood in your striving
against sin;
5and you have forgotten the exhortation which is
addressed to you as sons “My SON, DO NOT REGARD LIGHTLY THE
DISCIPLINE OF THE LORD,
  NOR FAINT WHEN YOU ARE REPROVED BY
HIM;
  6FOR THOSE WHOM THE LORD LOVES HE DISCIPLINES,

AND HE SCOURGES EVERY SON WHOM HE RECEIVES.”
7It is for
discipline that you endure; God deals with you as with sons; for what
son is there whom his father does not discipline? 8But if you are
without discipline, of which all have become partakers, then you are
illegitimate children and not sons. 9Furthermore, we had earthly
fathers to discipline us, and we respected them; shall we not much
rather be subject to the Father of spirits, and live? 10For they
disciplined us for a short time as seemed best to them, but He
disciplines us for our good, so that we may share His holiness.11All
discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet
to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the
peaceful fruit of righteousness.

    
12Therefore, strengthen the hands that are weak and the knees that
are feeble, 13and make straight paths for your feet, so that the limb
which is lame may not be put out of joint, but rather be
healed.

      14Pursue peace with all
men, and the sanctification without which no one will see the Lord.
15See to it that no one comes short of the grace of God; that no root
of bitterness springing up causes trouble, and by it many be
defiled;16that there be no immoral or godless person like Esau, who
sold his own birthright for a single meal. 17For you know that even
afterwards, when he desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected,
for he found no place for repentance, though he sought for it with
tears."

Do we recognize the hand of God? Are we
submitting to His discipline? Or do we despise Him, reject Him and
run after the pleasures of sin and the ways of the world. Are we
taking chances? Do we indulge in deliberate sin even though we know
that it is wrong? Because one sin, one misstep can cost you your
salvation, like it cost Esau his birth right. One fornication, one
sin, can separate you from God because you despise His grace and His
mercy that leads you to repentance and holiness. Very few will be
saved. Very few will endure with Jesus and serve Him until the end.
Are we one of those faithful and obedient children of God that submit
to His discipline and serve Him until the end?

May Jesus bless
you.

MANY WILL BE PURIFIED


We read in the book of Daniel 12:10
that in the end time “Many will be purged, purified and refined,
but the wicked will act wickedly; and none of the wicked will
understand, but those who have insight will understand."
There
is a spirit of wickedness in churches. Many of them proclaim that we
are all sinners and that it is impossible to stop sinning and be
holy. However, they are of satan, because without holiness no one
will see the Lord.
We read in Revelation 22:11 “Let the
one who does wrong, still do wrong; and the one who is filthy, still
be filthy; and let the one who is righteous, still practice
righteousness; and the one who is holy, still keep himself
holy.”
      12“Behold, I am coming
quickly, and My reward is with Me, to render to every man according
to what he has done. 13“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and
the last, the beginning and the end.”
   
14Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they may have the
right to the tree of life, and may enter by the gates into the city.
15Outside are the dogs and the sorcerers and the immoral persons and
the murderers and the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices
lying."
Many of the true followers of Jesus,  the called
out ones, who are not part of the worldly fornicating churches, are
being purified to be pure and holy. Many are going through pain,
sickness, trials and tribulations in order to be refined. They are
going through the smelters fire of the Holy Spirit, so that in the
end they will be pure like silver.
The wicked, even the false
Christians,  do not understand this. They even mock the true
followers of Jesus,  in their suffering. They do not understand
that Jesus is preparing His bride to be pure and spotless.
Let us
remind ourselves of the words of Peter in 1 Peter 4:1"Therefore,
since Christ has suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the
same purpose, because he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased
from sin, 2so as to live the rest of the time in the flesh no longer
for the lusts of men, but for the will of God." Suffering leads
to holiness.
Have you been called out by Jesus?  Are you
following Him in obedience and holiness while enduring much pain and
suffering? Are you being cleansed, purged and purified by the mighty
loving hand of the Master?
Hold on, dear fellow pilgrim. Stay with
Jesus. Do not give up, do not despair. Allow Him to work perfection
in you. Many will be purified. Are you one of them?
May Jesus
bless you.

CONFESSION IS NOT ENOUGH YOU MUST REPENT


Many believers keep on confessing the
same sins over and over. They go back to the same sins with the
intention of confessing later.  They never repented.
God
forgives those who repent and turn from their sin, but those who
continue in their sin will perish. The wages of sin is death.
We
read in 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 "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."
Jesus said that every tree that does not bear
good fruit will get cut off and burned. As long as you keep on
sinning, you are in danger of hell fire. Repent  and stop
sinning or you will perish. Without holiness no one will see the
Lord.
May Jesus bless you.

SEEK JESUS NOT SALVATION


Many believe in Jesus for salvation.
They confess Him but further have nothing to do with Him. They do not
know Him, love Him nor follow Him, but they think they have eternal
life because they believe in Him. They are deceived. They will not
have eternal life unless they find Jesus.
Salvation is not
just about believing in Jesus,  following a few steps and then
being assured of eternal life.
Jesus Christ  Himself is
the way, the truth the life. He is alive and He reveals Himself to
those who seek Him and obey Him. They are born again, become children
of God, His sheep, who listen to His voice and follow Him.
Salvation
is not about believing in the cross of Jesus.  It is about
denying yourself, picking up your own cross and following Jesus every
day, until the end.
Jesus gives eternal life to those who love,
obey and follow Him. He said: "Why do you call Me, ‘Lord,
Lord,’ and do not do what I say?" Luke 6:46. Believing in
Jesus and confessing Him is of no value if we do not obey Him.
Many
study the Bible but they do not obey Jesus, the words of Jesus, what
He taught and commanded, as recorded  in the gospels,
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.  They follow the teachings and
doctrines of their church and other people, but they do not obey
Jesus.
It is only when we obey the words of Jesus that He is
revealed to us and comes and dwells in us. If you do not repent of
sin, from the heart and stop sinning, turn from evil: if you do not
obey Jesus and be baptized in water, you will not be born of again.
If you do not seek Jesus with all your heart, the Holy Spirit will
not come and dwell in you.
Salvation is not a once off occurrence
whereby you are guaranteed of eternal life. We have to follow and
obey Jesus until the end. Jesus said: “My sheep hear My voice, and
I know them, and they follow Me; 28and I give eternal life to them,
and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My
hand." John 10:27,28. No one can snatch us out of His hand, but
if we do not listen to, nor follow Him until the end, we will not
have eternal life.
Salvation is Jesus,  not just believing,
but obeying, knowing and following Him until the end. Without Jesus,
there is no salvation. Have you found Jesus,  and are you
following Him, closely?
May Jesus bless you.

THE SHEEP WILL BE SCATTERED


Last night, the Lord showed me the
leadership's of many churches, conspiring, for their own welfare and
preservation. Then I heard in my spirit: "The sheep will be
scattered." The leaders of church organizations are following
after the antichrist one world religious system, under leadership of
the false prophet,  roman catholic Pope. They are betraying the
believers.
Very few of the Lord's sheep are following Him. Many
have been born again,  but then they followed the church
leadership,  the pastors and preachers.  They are not
following Jesus. They listen to their pastors, not to Jesus. They do
not hear His voice because they have shut their ears and turned their
back to Him. Disaster is coming. They have been betrayed by their
pastors. Christians will  be persecuted. Churches will be closed
and burned down. Their leadership will run from them, leaving the
sheep unattended, scattered.
Those who don't follow Jesus and do
not hear His voice will be devastated. They will realize too late
that they have been feeding and following the wolves, they were not
following the true Shepherd,  Jesus Christ.
Jesus said:
“My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; 28and
I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one
will snatch them out of My hand." John 10:27,28.
Do you HEAR
His voice, and do you follow Him,  or do you follow after
men and women who will betray you? Will you be safe with the Shepherd
or will you be scattered and destroyed?
May Jesus bless you.

WHEN GOD DOES NOT ANSWER


Many believers complain that God does
not answer when they pray. God does always answer when we pray. We
just fail to recognize it. He might not answer in the way or in the
time that we expected. Most often we do not recognize it because it
was not the answer that we wanted or expected.
Many lack
confidence when they pray because they are living in sin and
disobedience. Others do not really believe. Some are foolish, they
want God's opinion in a matter, but they are intent on following
their own mind.
We must be serious when pray.
We read in
Hebrews 11:6 "And without faith it is impossible to please Him,
for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a
rewarder of those who seek Him."
Jesus said:“Ask, and it
will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be
opened to you. 8“For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks
finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. 9“Or what man is
there among you who, when his son asks for a loaf, will give him a
stone? 10“Or if he asks for a fish, he will not give him a snake,
will he? 11“If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to
your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give
what is good to those who ask Him!" Matthew 7:7-11.
The
apostle James wrote in James 1:5-8 "But if any of you lacks
wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without
reproach, and it will be given to him. 6But he must ask in faith
without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the
sea, driven and tossed by the wind. 7For that man ought not to expect
that he will receive anything from the Lord, 8being a double-minded
man, unstable in all his ways."
Do not be doubting or double
minded. Be serious when you approach God. Trust, believe and expect
an answer. Jesus is faithful. He answers every prayer of those who
earnestly seek Him.
May Jesus bless you.

WHY SINNING CHRISTIANS ARE NOT BORN AGAIN


Many Christian believers are not born
again. They are sinners and have a sinful nature. Sinners will not
enter the kingdom of heaven.  That is why you need to be born
again, born of God,  to be a child of God.
We read in 1
John 3:9 " 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 read in 2
Peter 1:1 "Simon Peter, a bond-servant and apostle of Jesus
Christ,  To those who have received a faith of the same kind as
ours, by the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ:
2Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of
Jesus our Lord; 3seeing that His divine power has granted to us
everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true
knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence. 4For
by these He has granted to us His precious and magnificent promises,
so that by them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having
escaped the corruption that is in the world by lust. 5Now for this
very reason also, applying all diligence, in your faith supply moral
excellence, and in your moral excellence, knowledge, 6and in your
knowledge, self-control, and in your self-control, perseverance, and
in your perseverance, godliness, 7and in your godliness, brotherly
kindness, and in your brotherly kindness, love. 8For if these
qualities are yours and are increasing, they render you neither
useless nor unfruitful in the true knowledge of our Lord Jesus
Christ. 9For he who lacks these qualities is blind or short-sighted,
having forgotten his purification from his former sins. 10Therefore,
brethren, be all the more diligent to make certain about His calling
and choosing you; for as long as you practice these things, you will
never stumble; 11for in this way the entrance into the eternal
kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be abundantly
supplied to you."
Those who have been  born again
demonstrate by their way of living, that they have a new nature, a
divine nature. They are not sinners any more.
Are you born again?
Have you acquired the divine nature? Are you a child of God?
May
Jesus bless you.

LISTENING TO JESUS


Believing in Jesus cannot save us,
unless we listen to Him and obey Him. Faith without emanating action
is just an illusion without any substance. Many Christians have been
deceived into believing that they can trust in Jesus for eternal life
by just confessing that they believe in Him,  without taking any
further action. Their faith is just an illusion that leads to
damnation.
The only way to have eternal life is to LISTEN to
Jesus,  to obey His words. The words of Jesus are SPIRIT and
LIFE. The words of Jesus as recorded in the Bible in Matthew, Mark,
Luke and John are the words of eternal life to those who obey them.
Those who disobey Jesus will perish.
You cannot pick and
choose which of His commandments to obey and which to ignore. You
have to utterly obey Him.
Repent and be baptized. If you refuse,
you will not have eternal life. You cannot follow Jesus if you do not
repent and stop sinning. It makes no sense to be baptized if you have
not repented.
Many Christians read and hear the words of Jesus,
but they do not obey them. To them it is entertainment,  like a
horror movie. They rather believe the false doctrines that are
preached in churches.
They are like men who build their house on
sand, and when the flood comes it is washed away.
Are we LISTENING
to Jesus  and taking action? Do we obey and follow Him?
May
Jesus bless you.

THE POWER OF THE GOSPEL


The gospel of Jesus Christ is the only
gospel that turns sinners into saints, that makes them NEW, born
again children of God. The power of the gospel is demonstrated in a
NEW CREATURE.  A person who has believed and obeyed the gospel
is not a sinner any more, he does not sin. He hates sin and avoids it
at all cost.
Jesus came to take away the sins of the world.
He takes away the guilt of sin for those who believe in Him and
therefor obey Him. He justifies them.
The power of the gospel only
saves those who obey Him and REPENT of their sins, who have sorrow,
regret and remorse over their sins and plead Jesus to save them,
forgive their past sins.
Where there is no repentance and no
sorrow over sin, there is no salvation. Such a person stays in his
sin and will die in his sin.
Jesus saves sinners who REPENT with
godly sorrow, turn from their evil ways, are baptized in water for
the washing off of their sin, and sin no more,  but live holy
lives in obedience to Jesus. Without holiness no one will see the
Lord.
Have you been transformed by the power of the gospel?
Did you repent of your sin or are you still a sinner on your way to
hell?
May Jesus bless you.

Saturday, June 15, 2019

YOU MUST WANT TO CHANGE


Sinners will not enter the kingdom of
heaven. You need to become a saint, a child of God. You must be holy.
Without holiness no one will see the Lord.
You can change,
if you want to. Jesus can make you new, born again, a child of God,
if you want to. If you don't want to, nobody can force you.
If you
want to have eternal life, you need to change, you need to be born
again,  follow and obey Jesus and be holy.
Many Christians
believers say they cannot stop sinning. If you come to Jesus and ask
Him, He will make you free from the bondage of sin and addictions so
that you can obey Him, sin no more and be holy. However, if you
choose to go back to sin, Jesus will not stop you. You will once
again get entangled in the snares of sin and your end will be worse
than your beginning, you will become a worse sinner.
You can only
stay free from the bondage of sin if you stay with Jesus and stay
focused on Him. If you allow the lusts of the flesh to seduce you to
sin, you will be soiled, and will not be fit for heaven. Unless you
repent, from the heart, return to Jesus, stay with Him, and sin no
more, you will end up in hell.
To be holy is not easy. If you are
not determined to change, you will not become holy. You will perish
in your sin.
Do you WANT to change? Do you WANT to be holy? Do you
WANT eternal life?
May Jesus bless you.

SEEK AND DO THE WILL OF GOD


The key to the kingdom of heaven is to
seek and to do the will of God. The will of God is that we follow and
obey Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life,
there is no other.  His words that He spoke, taught and
commanded, are the words of eternal life. Jesus never stopped
speaking. Jesus is alive. His sheep hear His voice, they listen to
Him. He guides His own sheep, they follow Him and He gives them
eternal life.
Those who accept Jesus, obey Him, repent and be
baptized in water, are  born again, they become His sheep, who
hear His voice and are able to follow Him.
Not all of His
sheep follow Him. Many go astray,  running after their own
desires and the pleasures of the world.  Many of His sheep
listen to the wolves in sheep's clothing, preachers and churches.
They follow after men. They have fellowship with other sheep, but not
with Jesus. That is why they are deceived,  led astray and not
doing the will of God.
We can only do the will of God  if we
keep on following Jesus every day. Jesus gives His Holy Spirit in
those who follow after Him. The Holy Spirit guides them into all
truth and teaches them all things as they continue to seek the will
of God, every day.
We must be fueled by a burning desire to do the
will of God, seeking Him in prayer. We must hunger and thirst for
righteousness seeking His approval,  then we will be satisfied,
filled with His peace and joy. He will guide us into fruitfulness for
His kingdom.
It is only through our relationship with
Jesus,  being led by the Holy Spirit,  that we can know and
do the will of God, bear fruit for His kingdom and have eternal
life.
Do we follow after Jesus every day, seek His will, do it,
and bear fruit for His kingdom. Are we doing the will of God?
May
Jesus bless you.

CRAZY CHRISTIAN EXPECTATIONS


Many Christian believers have totally
unrealistic expectations that are based on fallacies and their own
perverted imagination. They live in a dream world, because they do
not know Jesus, nor hear from Him.
They read the Bible and pick
and choose selected verses about the blessings of God. They listen to
the lies of false prophets and preachers.
Many have crazy
expectations about this life. They expect God to fulfill their lusts
and fleshly desires just because they confess to believe in
Jesus.
They do not want to work for the kingdom of God but
they expect rewards and crowns in heaven. They expect mansions in
heaven and to be walking on streets of gold. They have no desire for
Jesus,  they do not love nor obey Him. They do not hear His
voice, nor do they follow Him.
They are so at home in this world,
they have no desire for the kingdom of God. Many have enriched
themselves with the things of the world.  They have become so
rich and self sufficient that they have no need for Jesus. They are
living a lie and they enjoy it.
They belong to the church of their
choice, listen to the preachers of their choice, that feed their
fantasies.  They are deceived because they love lies.
If
they really believed in Jesus they would read His words and
commandments, the red letter words in some Bibles,  in Matthew,
Mark, Luke and John, and know the truth. If they were seeking the
truth they would pray and ask Jesus,  and He would reveal the
truth to them.
They love their crazy expectations and will do
anything to defend them, using Bible verses. They mock, reject and
persecute those who try to tell them the truth, but they will die in
their sins and deception if they do not repent and seek  the
truth.
Your salvation is your responsibility.  Do not follow
after other people. Do not trust anybody. Seek the truth. Seek Jesus,
and you will find  Him. Go after Him, obey Him and He will guide
into all truth. Stay with Him until the end and He will give you
eternal life.
May Jesus bless you.

WHAT YOU SHOULD BE WORRIED ABOUT


There is only one thing that we should
be concerned about and that is our relationship with Jesus. Without
Jesus we can do nothing.  Without Jesus our life has no
direction or purpose and we are heading for destruction.
Jesus
said:  25“For this reason I say to you, do not be worried
about your life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink; nor
for your body, as towhat you will put on. Is not life more than food,
and the body more than clothing? 26“Look at the birds of the air,
that they do not sow, nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your
heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they?
27“And who of you by being worried can add a single hour to his
life? 28“And why are you worried about clothing? Observe how the
lilies of the field grow; they do not toil nor do they spin, 29yet I
say to you that not even Solomon in all his glory clothed himself
like one of these. 30“But if God so clothes the grass of the field,
which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He
not much more clothe you? You of little faith! 31“Do not worry
then, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or ‘What will we drink?’ or
‘What will we wear for clothing?’ 32“For the Gentiles eagerly
seek all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need
all these things. 33“But seek first His kingdom and His
righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. 34“So do
not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day
has enough trouble of its own." Matthew  6:25-34.
Most
professing Christians do not understand the kingdom of God and do not
know the King, because they never met Him. Jesus Christ is King. He
is Lord. If you have accepted Him as Lord and serve Him, He will show
you His kingdom.  If you follow Him,  He will take care of
you. He will guide and teach you and He will supply in all your
needs.  That is why the only thing that you need to be concerned
about always, is your relationship with Jesus.
Obey His
teachings and commandments as recorded in Matthew, Mark, Luke and
John. He will come and dwell with you and will disclose Himself to
you. If you disobey Jesus and stray from Him, you are in danger of
hell fire.
Seek Jesus with all your power.  Accept Him,
obey Him. Repent and be baptized as He commanded.  Be holy. Sin
no more. Guard your relationship with Jesus.  Stay with Him
until the end and He will give you eternal life. All that you need to
worry about is keeping your relationship with Jesus right.
May
Jesus bless you.

NAKED AND AFRAID



Naked and afraid,  that is how
most people will stand before Jesus when they die. They will realize
that it is not a reality show. It is the end. They will be facing
eternity in hell.
They will be stripped of all their earthly
comforts and securities. Like they came into the world, they will go
out, naked. All that will matter is their deeds. We read in
Revelation 20:11-15.
"Then I saw a great white throne and Him
who sat upon it, from whose presence earth and heaven fled away, and
no place was found for them. 12And I saw the dead, the great and the
small, standing before the throne, and books were opened; and another
book was opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged
from the things which were written in the books, according to their
deeds. 13And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and death and
Hades gave up the dead which were in them; and they were judged,
every one of them according to their deeds. 14Then death and Hades
were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake
of fire. 15And if anyone’s name was not found written in the book
of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire."

Many
Christian believers will be terribly disappointed when Jesus denies
them and says to them:"Go away I never knew you." They
thought that they were saved because they believed in Jesus,
but they never obeyed nor followed Him.  They kept on living in
sin. They never repented, neither were baptized in water for the
washing off of their sins. They believed that they were saved by
grace and did not need to change their ways. They disregarded the
words of Jesus, His commandments. Many of them were religious,
working for the church, doing charities, evangelizing, but they had
no relationship with Jesus.  They acted on their own initiative
and followed after people.  They never heard from Jesus.
Jesus
said:“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the
kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in
heaven will enter.22“Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord,
Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out
demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?’ 23“And then I
will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; DEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO
PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS.’
We will stand before Jesus and be judged
by our DEEDS. Many will be naked, afraid and ashamed. The saints,
those who followed and obeyed Jesus,  will not be naked. We read
in Revelation 19:8 of the bride of Christ: "It was given to her
to clothe herself in fine linen, bright and clean; for the fine linen
is the righteous acts of the saints."
Will we be naked and
afraid on that day, or will we be clothed in righteousness and be
worthy to enter heaven?
May Jesus bless you.

BECOME LIKE JESUS


We are all born into different cultures
with different beliefs and practices that are worldly. Many are born
into church denominations and they cling to the culture and doctrines
of their church. None of those cultures are suitable for the kingdom
of heaven. If we want to have eternal life we need to accept Jesus,
be born again and live according to His words and commandments.
We need to become like Jesus.
Do not become like other
people. Do not become like the Christians. Most Christians  are
not following Jesus. They are following the cultures and doctrines of
men. Become like Jesus.
The words of Jesus, the words that He
spoke  and commanded, are the words and rules of the kingdom of
God. The words of Jesus are the only words that lead to eternal life,
if we obey them. Jesus delivered many of His commandments in the
sermon on the mount as recorded in Matthew chapters 5 to 7. We read
in Matthew 7:24-27. "Therefore everyone who hears these words of
Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his
house on the rock. 25“And the rain fell, and the floods came, and
the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not
fall, for it had been founded on the rock. 26“Everyone who hears
these words of Mine and does not act on them, will be like a foolish
man who built his house on the sand. 27“The rain fell, and the
floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and
it fell—and great was its fall.”
Many Christians disregard the
words of Jesus and rather follow the teachings of their churches and
the church of their fathers. Many regard their culture more than the
words of Jesus. Others stuby the Bible but skip over and around the
words of Jesus. They are building on sand. Those who disobey Jesus
will be disappointed. They will not have eternal life.
Jesus is
the way, the truth and the life. Treasure His words and obey them, as
they were also recorded in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.  Become
like Jesus, not like the world and the Christians. Jesus is the way.
Follow Him until the end, and you will have life.
May Jesus bless
you.

CHURCH PEOPLE ARE NOT CHRISTIANS


Church people identify with their
church and it's doctrines, not with Jesus. Christians identify with
and follow Jesus,  His words and His commandments. Many people
profess to be Christians but they are not of Jesus, thus they are not
Christians.
There is a huge divide between church people and
disciples of Jesus. Church people discriminate on the basis of their
church denomination. If you talk about Jesus they will ask you which
church you belong to. If you reply that you belong to Jesus and not
to a church, you are immediately viewed and treated with suspicion,
most often  with contempt.  They look down on you. If you
follow Jesus and associate with Him, you will be hated by all men,
especially church people.
There is a clear separation
between church people and the children of God, the true followers of
Jesus. They are not of the same kingdom. Churches are respected by
the world. They are of the world, with beautiful architecture, to
impress the world. The clergy wear special clothes to distinguish
them. They have titles and are respected by the world, but they are
an abomination to God.
Church people and Jesus' followers are
incompatible. They are not of the same kingdom  Jesus' disciples
follow Him and live according to His words, the words that He spoke
and taught, as recorded in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.  "3By
this we know that we have come to know Him, if we keep His
commandments. 4The one who says, “I have come to know Him,” and
does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in
him; 5but whoever keeps His word, in him the love of God has truly
been perfected. By this we know that we are in Him: 6the one who says
he abides in Him ought himself to walk in the same manner as He
walked." 1 John 2:3-6.
Do you follow Jesus or do you belong
to a church?
Are you of the kingdom of God or of this world?
May
Jesus bless you.

PRAY TO JESUS


There is only one person who will
decide whether we will enter heaven or be thrown into hell, and that
is Jesus.  There is only one way to have eternal life, that is
to follow and obey Jesus.  Jesus is the WAY,  the TRUTH and
the LIFE.
If you want to have eternal life,  you have to know
Jesus,  He needs to know you and you need to have His approval.
Jesus warned: 21“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’
will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My
Father who is in heaven will enter. 22“Many will say to Me on that
day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your
name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?’
23“And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; DEPART
FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS.’ Matthew 7:21-23.
Many
people profess to believe in Jesus but they do not know Him, nor
follow and obey Him. Their faith is in vain.
You need to know
Jesus.  Pray to Jesus.  Repent,  turn from your sins
and from following after your own sinful selfish desires, obey Him,
repent and be baptized. Live in obedience to His gospel,  His
words as also recorded in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. He will
disclose Himself to you. He will  baptize you in the Holy
Spirit. He will come and dwell in you and He will teach and guide you
and give you eternal life if you stay with Him and obey Him until the
end.
Pray to Jesus,  every day, always. Pray to Jesus and He
will answer you.
Pray  to Jesus.  He is the living God.
Pray to Jesus,  He is the only One who can help you. Pray to
Jesus.
May Jesus bless you.
