THE BIBLE HAS BEEN CORRUPTED

There are more than 450 English

translations of the Bible. Many church denominations have their own
version of the Bible, translated and commented to support their
doctrines. The Bible is generally referred to as the Word of God. The
Words of God are PURE. There is only one truth, not many different
versions. So the question needs to be asked: Which version of the
Bible is pure?

Many regard the KJV King James Version
as pure but since it dates from 1611 it contains some archaic
language, that is not understood by the modern English speaker. Many
quote verse without understanding the meaning. Some of the more
modern translations have been tainted and corrupted, sometimes
deliberately and at other times, to align with the doctrines and
beliefs of the translators. Especially the more recent translations
have been corrupted more than the earlier ones because theologians
have lost their fear and respect for God. Whereas reference to God
and Jesus were always in uppercase letters, many of the modern
translations use lowercase.

The older translations can be trusted
more than the modern ones. I personally prefer the New American
Standard, 1970 that is a more literal translation and it uses modern
English. There are also online sites like Biblehub.com where
different translations can be compared in parallel, which can give
the reader more insight, especially referring to the more traditional
translations. By parallel study of different versions you will soon
discover the differences and gain insight.

The most important books of the Bible
are the four gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, in which the
words of Jesus, His commands and teachings were recorded. Those are
the words of eternal life for those who take them seriously and obey
them. Those words have not been tampered with as much, as most modern
day churches and preachers ignore and regard them as impracticable,
impossible to carry out. They rather twist some other scriptures to
support their false teachings, by which they deceive the people.

Jesus spoke in parables, using simple
language and still many did not understand what He was saying because
they did not seek the truth. We read in Matthew 13:10”And the
disciples came and said to Him, “Why do You speak to them in
parables?” 11Jesus answered them, “To you it has been
granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them
it has not been granted. 12“For whoever has, to him more shall
be given, and he will have an abundance; but whoever does not have,
even what he has shall be taken away from him. 13“Therefore I
speak to them in parables; because while seeing they do not see, and
while hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.

14“In their case the prophecy of Isaiah is being fulfilled,
which says,
‘YOU WILL KEEP ON HEARING, BUT WILL NOT
UNDERSTAND;
 YOU WILL KEEP ON SEEING, BUT WILL NOT
PERCEIVE;


15FOR THE HEART OF THIS PEOPLE HAS BECOME DULL,
WITH THEIR EARS
THEY SCARCELY HEAR,
AND THEY HAVE CLOSED THEIR EYES,
OTHERWISE
THEY WOULD SEE WITH THEIR EYES,
HEAR WITH THEIR EARS,
AND
UNDERSTAND WITH THEIR HEART AND RETURN,
AND I WOULD HEAL
THEM.’”



These words are true about many professing Christians today. They
are keep themselves busy with endless Bible studies but they do not
gain understanding of the truth, because they have been blinded by
arrogance. They are blind to the truth because they trust in their
own understanding and refuse to obey the words of Jesus Christ. They
refuse to accept Jesus, repent and be baptized, so they are never
born again and never see the kingdom of God.


Understanding comes through revelation of Jesus Christ when we
accept, trust and obey Him and do not lean on our own understanding.



The Bible is a useful treasure, but without Jesus it is useless.
Jesus said to the religious Jews: “You search the Scriptures
because you think that in them you have eternal life; it is these
that testify about Me; 40and you are unwilling to come to Me so
that you may have life.” John 5:39,40. The very same today, many
study the Bible because they think that in doing so they will have
eternal life but they refuse to follow and obey Jesus, and therefor
they will perish.


The Bible has been corrupted, but the truth of Jesus Christ, His
words and His gospel are clear and simple, for those who seek the
truth and obey it. They will find Jesus and He will give them
understanding. He gives His Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Truth in and
with those who obey Him. The Holy Spirit will teach them all things
and guide them into all truth, if they listen and obey Him.


Read the Bible for yourself, starting with the gospels, Matthew,
Mark, Luke and John. Take seriously the words of Jesus. Pray and ask
Him to give you understanding and He will give you wisdom about the
truth. Obey His words and follow Him. Stay with Him until the end and
you will have eternal life.


May Jesus bless you.

CHURCH HAS BEEN CORRUPTED

The first believers did not have church buildings.  They preached in the
streets and met in houses. Holy born again men and women came
together to pray,  worship and have fellowship  in the
Lord.  They met in houses, not in church buildings. The apostles
taught them the commands of Jesus Christ. The apostle Paul wrote in 1
Corinthians 14:26"When you come together, everyone has a psalm
or a teaching, a revelation, a tongue, or an interpretation. All of
these must be done to build up the church." They were filled
with the Holy Spirit and the Holy Spirit manifested in their meetings
through various gifts. We read in 1 Corinthians 12:7-11"Now to
each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common
good. 8To one there is given through the Spirit the message of
wisdom, to another the message of knowledge by the same Spirit,9to
another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that
one Spirit, 10to another the working of miracles, to another
prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another
speaking in various tongues, and to still another the interpretation
of tongues. 11All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, who
apportions them to each one as He determines."
It was not
a "service" with a program and a one man show where the
pastor  preached and then everybody went home. It was a meeting
of the saints to have fellowship with Jesus under guidance of the
Holy Spirit. That was a meeting of the church, the Body of Christ,
the called out assembly, the Ekklesia.
Then some people crept in
who institutionalized the church. They wanted to be like the
heathen,  who have temples for their idols and false religions.
They saw opportunity to create their own organizations and created
their own doctrines, not the words of Jesus Christ.  They
created church organizations using their own rules and by twisting
the scriptures. They lured people  away from the truth, the pure
words of Jesus  and made them members and servants of their
church organization, and so thousands of denominations evolved.
People  became slaves and followers of churches and their
leadership, not followers of Jesus Christ.
Most professing
Christians belong to these corrupt churches. They follow after the
church leadership,  not after Jesus, because they do not know
Him. They belong to the church of their choice because they like the
false doctrines of the church. They believe and defend the lies that
the church preaches and do not find the truth because they do not
seek the truth, and so they will perish in their sins.

The churches are
run and controlled by the leadership of the church. Jesus and the
Holy Spirit has no place in the worldly church institutions. They are
man made institutions that are not serving the kingdom of God. They
serve and enrich the leadership and expand the church enterprise.
They are corrupt, fake, worldly, satanic.

Church has been
corrupted. Very few born again believers are led by the Holy Spirit.
Most of them have been led astray by the corrupt church institutions.
The Body of Christ is not part of the corrupt church institutions.
The true followers of Jesus are few. They are led by the Holy Spirit.
They follow Jesus, not men.

Are you a member
and supporter of the corrupt worldly churches or are you part of the
true church, the Body of Christ? Do you follow and serve Jesus like
the first believers did?.

May Jesus bless
you.

Your mind has been CORRUPTED

Your mind has been corrupted. You have been brainwashed. Everything that you believe to be true is tainted with lies, corruption. Even your Bible has been corrupted by influences of men who translated it.

Only Jesus Christ is PURE. That is why He gives His Holy Spirit to guide and teach us. If you do not have the Spirit of Christ and if you do not listen to the Spirit of Christ you will also be corrupt. The whole world is corrupt because satan lives in men. If Jesus Christ lives in you, if His Spirit dwells in you and you obey His Spirit to live according to the Holy Spirit then you will be PURE.

You cannot be pure and suitable for the kingdom of heaven unless you REPENT and OBEY Jesus Christ and invite His Spirit , the Holy Spirit of God into you, to live in you, to dwell in you, and follow His guidance. Then you will be pure, you will be holy like Jesus Christ.

Are you following after this world? Are you corrupt? Are your deeds and your thoughts, your mind, are they corrupt? Or are you following after the pure Spirit of Christ, the Holy Spirit? Only those who follow after the holy Spirit will do the will of God. Are you pure and holy or are you corrupt? Who is living in you? Jesus Christ or satan? If Jesus is not living in you then satan is living in you and you are being used by him to destroy yourself and to destroy others, to destroy the world that God has made. Who are you serving? Are you serving Jesus Christ and the kingdom of God? Are you doing the will of God or are you a slave to sin and a servant to satan? Whom do you serve? Are you serving your corrupted mind or do you follow the Holy Spirit of God?

Your deeds will determine your destination. If we live according to the flesh and serve the desires of the flesh, we must DIE, we must PERISH. But if we by the Spirit of Christ living in us MORTIFY, KILL, the deeds of the flesh and obey the Holy Spirit of God then we will serve the kingdom of God and we will enter into His kingdom.

Whom are you serving? Jesus Christ of satan? Who is your boss? Jesus or the flesh and the devil?

Make up your mind where you want to spend eternity. If you want to enter the kingdom of God then make space for Jesus. REPENT, be baptized in water, be pure, be holy, invite the Spirit of God to come and dwell in you. Reject satan, resist the devil and he will flee from you.

You cannot sit in the fence. You cannot serve two masters. You will either love the one and hate the other. Whom do you serve? Jesus or satan? What is your destiny? Where will you end up? Are you on the narrow road to heaven, the kingdom of God or are you on the broad road to destruction?

Choose today whom you will serve, Jesus Christ or the flesh and satan. Where will you end up, with Jesus or in DAMNATION?

May Jesus bless you.

Corrupted Minds Rotting Souls

Our life and eternal destiny is determined by that which we have on our mind, that which we think about. If we allow our minds to be corrupted by the things of this world, by TV, the media and influences of the world around us then we will perish but if we fill our minds with Jesus Christ, we will LIVE.

Man will not live from bread alone but from every word that proceeds from the MOUTH of God. If you sit in front of the TV all day and you absorb all the trash that they present to you, that is what you become, GARBAGE! Your mind is corrupted. If you listen to other people you become like them. Do you want to be like those people who you listen to?

If you listen to other people you become like them but if you listen to Jesus Christ you become like Him and you will LIVE. You need to have the MIND OF CHRIST and you only get the mind of Christ through a close relationship with Jesus Chris IN YOUR SPIRIT, His Spirit IN your spirit and you LISTENING to His Spirit, LISTENING to the WORD OF GOD implanted in your soul. But if you watch the TV and listen to other people you are diverted away from Jesus and you will perish.

We have to FILL our minds with Jesus Christ but first we have got to PURGE our minds of all filth, all worldliness and invite Jesus in.

We need to be continually fed by His SPIRIT, not by knowledge and reading and listening to other people. We need to LISTEN to the Holy Spirit and then our SOUL WILL LIVE. If we stop listening we will perish. We need to be fed and filled and nourished with the Spirit of God every day, all the time. If we absorb garbage that is what we become, GARBAGE IN, GARBAGE OUT. We need to yearn and long for the Spirit of God every moment, to fill us and to direct us. We need to GO AFTER Him. We need to SEEK Him, all the time and let Him fill our minds, then He will determine our DESTINY.

What are we filling our minds with? The things of the world, or Jesus Christ? If we do not have the MIND OF CHRIST and keep on filling our minds with Jesus, LISTENING to Him, FOLLOWING, yearning and being receptive, going after the guidance of the Holy Spirit then we will perish. We need Jesus Christ! Jesus is the WAY the TRUTH and the LIFE, there is no other. What are we feeding our soul and our mind with, garbage or Jesus?

May Jesus bless you.
