Adulterous Marriages and Private Revelations



Many Christian believers preach rules and regulations from their own private interpretation of the Bible, from their own conviction and from their own revelations that they claim to have had of Jesus. Many people are confused by these varied teachings and often the faith of many is destroyed.

One of such teachings is the one of adulterous marriages, that claims that if a person is divorced and gets married again, then he is in an adulterous marriage and he needs to divorce and go back to his previous partner. God hates divorce. Advising a person who was once divorced and got married again, to divorce for the second time, causes that person to commit the same sin for the second time. The gospel of Jesus Christ is not about rules and regulations. It is a about following and obeying Jesus Christ obeying His commands. Once you have repented and you've accepted Jesus as your Lord and Master, then you follow Him and you obey Him and you get your guidance from Him, not from the rules and regulations and private revelations of other people.

If we are still following people, we are not following Jesus Christ. If we following people, we are following the blind, the blind leading the blind. We are not to follow people. We are to follow Jesus Christ and to do what He guides us to do and what He tells us to do.

It serves no purpose to destroy a second marriage, break up a home, put people into distress, break up a home where children need to be maybe brought up, in stability, and then to go back to a previous partner who might not want to accept you. It is not about our relationship with other people. It is primarily about our relationship with Jesus. We have to obey Him. If He tells you to divorce and go back to your previous wife or husband, then you are following Jesus, but if you are following the advice of another person, then you're not with Jesus, you are busy with dead religious rules and practices.

Many believers have a dreams and experiences, revelations which they share with others about things like heaven and hell, fasting, vigils, and these people want to make up rules by which other people have to live and follow Jesus Christ. There are many testimonies of near-death experiences, and people come back with different stories. The only way to know the truth is to ask Jesus to confirm whether that which the person says is indeed the truth, whether that is what Jesus wants you to do. If we follow after people and the words of people we're not busy with Jesus, and we are already astray. Jesus delivered His gospel, His words, His teachings, and He said that if we listen to His words, and we obey them, then we will be like a wise man who has built his house on the rock, on the solid foundation, and when the storms of life come we will stand. But if we build our faith and our beliefs on what other people say, we are like those who build their foundations on the sand, and when the storms come we are destroyed; we fall over, we fall to pieces.

The only way that we can be stable in Christ is when we are led by the Holy Spirit, when we get our wisdom and our guidance from Jesus, and we should not waver. That is what discipleship is about. That is what following Jesus Christ is about. It is not following His servants, but following Him. U as followers of Jesus and disciples of Jesus, we must bring others to Jesus, not to ourselves not to our own teachings, our own ideas. We must take people to Jesus and advise them to get their wisdom from Him, to be led by Him, because Jesus is our Teacher, He is our Lord. He is our Master, He is our Guide, He is our Rock, He is our Provider. He is our everything, and if we allow ourselves to be distracted from Jesus, we will not survive. We must build on the Rock, on Jesus Christ.

We must live by His words, by the words that He command, as also recorded in the gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Those are the words of eternal life. We must be led by the Holy Spirit. Man will not live from bread alone but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God, and the moment that you turn away from God, and you start following after a brother or a sister, or a preacher, you are in grave danger of destruction and hell fire.

In Jeremiah 17 verse 5 we read: Cursed is the man who turns away from the Lord his God and puts his trust in flesh. We've got to trust Jesus only. Don't trust in me, don't trust in another preacher, don't trust in another man because then you're not following Jesus Christ anymore. If you need wisdom, if you need guidance; go on your knees, speak to Jesus. He will guide you. If He does not give you the answer that you're looking for, wait on Him. He will speak to you at the right time. He will give you wisdom and guidance about the things that are important to Him. We often have wrong priorities. We want to know certain things, but those things are not important to God.

What is important to Jesus is our relationship with Him, obeying His words, living according to His commands. Sin no more, live holiness, righteousness. Pray, ask Him for guidance. Wait on Him. Repent and be baptized. Do as He commanded and He will give His Spirit in you to guide you. He will always be with you, but we have to stay with Him to have eternal life. If we start listening to other people and their wisdom, if we start following other people, we are being led by the blind, because dear friends I can tell you one thing. I don't know about tomorrow, but I know who holds tomorrow, that is Jesus and I follow Him. I cannot advise you about tomorrow. I cannot tell you what to do and I will never do that, but what I will tell you is: Get your eyes on Jesus, seek Him. He is the only way. Follow Him and you will have life. I follow Jesus and I advise you to put your hand in His hand, to seek Him with all your heart, and if you seek Him you will find Him. If you ask Him, He will guide you, but you have to be serious.

Stop listening to other people. Get on your knees, pray, wait on the Lord, and He will guide you. There is only one way to have eternal life and that is to follow and obey Jesus Christ. Stay with Jesus, build on Him, listen to Him. Obey Him and you will be safe.

May Jesus bless you.

Captives of Church CANNOT Follow Jesus



There are many serious believers in
churches who truly want to serve the kingdom of God but they are
trapped in churches. What they do not realize is that as long as they
are bound to the church organization and subject themselves to the
church leadership, they cannot follow Jesus and be pleasing to Him.
The only way that we can be part of the kingdom of God is when we
follow and serve the King, Lord and Master, Jesus Christ.
Church organizations brainwash
believers to believe that the church is part of the kingdom of God
and that by supporting and working for the church, that they are
indeed serving the kingdom of God. The leadership. preachers,
pastors and clergy teach believers to submit themselves to the rule,
discipline and control of the church leadership. Believers are
taught the doctrines of the church, which are supported by verses
from the Bible. The Bible is used to mesmerize believers and keep
them spellbound.
The Bible has been translated and
twisted in such a way as to support worldly church organizations.
That is why the Bible is effectively used as a tool to control and
keep believers captive. The Bible is regarded as the infallible word
of God, by the churches, and they thus use their interpretation or
twisted application of the Bible verses to rule over and thus to bind
and control the believers. They become captives of the church because
they believe that their eternal salvation depends on their church
membership and their dedication to the church doctrines and
leadership. They are burdened by rules and regulations, bound to
tithe, pay 10% of their gross income, and more, to the church and to
support church projects. They are led to believe that if they do not
pay these taxes to the church, they will end up in hell. Guilt is
piled on them if they do not attend church meetings, at which
occasions they are further brainwashed and indoctrinated into bondage
of the church. All along Bible verses are twisted and used to
chastise and subdue believers into submission.

The whole concept of a church
organization is worldly, satanic and antichrist. It is totally
opposed to the teachings of Jesus. It is satan's version of the Body
of Christ, the true Church, the Ekklesia. Members of the ekklesia,
the true church, have been literally "called out" of the
world (in Greek ekklesia is related to kaleo, "to call")
in order to live free of its dictates and to belong fully, at every
moment, to Jesus and to one another. You cannot belong to the
Ekklesia and to a worldly church organization.

Many of those believers who are trapped
in the churches read the Bible for themselves and realize that the
church teachings and practices do not comply with what they read in
the Bible. They compare different Bible translations and soon learn
about the lies and deception, the twisted meaning of many translated
verses. Some of them question and object to these differences but
they are quickly reminded not to be rebellious but to submit to the
church leadership or else to face exclusion, discipline, rejection,
even persecution, by church leadership and the other members. They
give in to the pressure. For fear of rejection by friends, family and
their brainwashed community, they do not follow the truth but remain
captives of the church.

The gospel of Jesus Christ, which is
the Gospel of the Kingdom of God, leads those who believe and thus
follow and obey Him, to eternal life. It calls them out, to become
the Ekklesia, "called out" of the world in order to live
free of its dictates and to belong fully, at every moment, to Jesus
and to follow Him.
The rules of the Kingdom of God were
delivered by Jesus Himself and were recorded in the gospels, Matthew,
Mark, Luke and John. Those are the teachings of Jesus, the words of
eternal life, for those who obey them and live by them. We are called
to turn from sin and from following after worldly desires,
achievements and pleasures, to deny ourselves and follow Jesus. Jesus
promised to give His Spirit, the Holy Spirit, in those who obey His
teachings, who repent and are baptized in water and who come after
Him. The Hoy Spirit, the Spirit of Christ, will guide them into all
truth if they stay with Him until the end of their life. They are
the true church, the Ekklesia, the called out ones, that do not
follow after men, are not part of church organizations. They follow
Jesus, under guidance of the Holy Spirit because they are FREE from
the bondage of the worldly church system.

You cannot follow Jesus and be part of
the Kingdom of God if you stay in the bondage of church. You must
serve the Master, Jesus Christ, not the pastor. Turn to Jesus, seek
Him with all your heart. Read and obey His teachings as recorded in
the gospels, Matthew, Mark Luke and John. Repent and be baptized
(baby baptism is not valid), go after Jesus, pray, ask Him to baptize
you in the Holy Spirit, then stay with Him and follow the guidance of
the Holy Spirit, until the end.

Get out of church, follow Jesus and
become part of the Kingdom of God.

May Jesus bless you.

THE MOST GRUELING CONTEST ON EARTH



The MOST GRUELING CONTEST in the whole world also carries the biggest possible prize and that is the PRIZE of ETERNAL LIFE. The contest is: FOLLOWING Jesus Christ. If we want eternal life we HAVE TO obey Jesus Christ and follow Him. If we want to win the prize we have to COMPLY WITH THE RULES. The rules are the words of Jesus Christ, the words that He spoke as they are also recorded in the gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
Very few people will win that prize because very few are willing to obey Jesus, to deny themselves every day, pick up their cross and GO AFTER HIM until the very very end. Many people believe that they ARE SAVED and they HAVE SALVATION, they ARE DECEIVED by the devil.
You cannot win the prize unless you complete the race, unless you complete the contest SUCCESSFULLY. There is only ONE WAY to win the prize, to have eternal life and that is to FOLLOW and OBEY Jesus Christ EVERY DAY. That is EXTREMELY DIFFICULT. Without Jesus you cannot do it and that is why so many Christians say it is impossible to STOP SINNING. You HAVE TO STOP SINNING, you HAVE TO obey the words of Jesus or else you WILL NOT win the prize, you WILL NOT have eternal life. You have to compete according to the rules, according to the words of Jesus.
Most Christians are not even in the contest, they have never entered, they DON'T KNOW JESUS! If you want eternal life you have to OBEY Jesus and WALK WITH HIM. REPENT and STOP SINNING, BE BAPTIZED IN WATER and OBEY Jesus, FOLLOW Him and He will REVEAL HIMSELF to you. He will give His Spirit, the HOLY SPIRIT to dwell in you, to GUIDE YOU every step of the way BUT if you do not follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit you WON'T MAKE IT! You will fail!
Most Christians don't know Jesus, most Christians are on their way to hell and they believe that they have salvation. They are deceived. Are you in the contest? Are you following Jesus Christ every day according to the rules? Are you OVERCOMING? Are you WITH JESUS every step of the way?

May Jesus bless you.
