People of earth. Be put on notice. God does not offer entrance to His kingdom based on your level of fame, level of recognition, film or song credits, balance in your bank accounts, number or kind of houses and cars you own or how much fine wine and spirits you owned. He only grants entrance by your free-will acceptance of His Holy Spirit…through repentance and turning from your selfish, wicked, worldly ways. I am so grieved over each famed obituary I read. I search and scan for any sign that they followed the Prince of Peace and not the liar and stealer of souls. I usually end grieved that short of a miracle, I will not fellowship with them in eternity. They are gone for good. Their fame from earthly pursuits their only payment. Life separated from the lover of their souls, God, because they were too busy, pompous or arrogant to accept His hand outstretched, until their last breaths.

Nevertheless, God’s solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord must turn away from wickedness,”  2 Timothy 2:19.

“For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ.  If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, their work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light.  It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each person’s work,”   1 Corinthians 3:11-13. (Those who do good works without Christ and His love, are not working with God, but against him.)

“But be on guard, so that your hearts are not weighed down and depressed with the giddiness of debauchery and the nausea of self-indulgence and the worldly worries of life, and then that day [when the Messiah returns] “will not come on you suddenly like a trap; for it will come upon all those who live on the face of all the earth.  But keep alert at all times [be attentive and ready], praying that you may have the strength and ability [to be found worthy and] to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand in the presence of the Son of Man [at His coming”],   Luke 21:34-36.  (Are you walking on His Highway of Holiness before he comes back, or before you go to meet him at death?)

Inertia  Posted on 30 December 2016 by

While I prayed I heard the word “Inertia” and I had no idea what it meant.  I looked it up.

Inertia means: 1: Property of matter by which it continues in its existing state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless that state is changed by an external force.
2: Resistance or disinclination to motion, action, or change: idleness, lazy, with regard to effort, motion, action, and the like; inactivity; sluggishness, slothfulness.  A tendency to do nothing or to remain unchanged.  © thefreedictionary.com

The LORD revealed some things through this word definition that is effective now concerning the Church and the timing we are in.  I believe we need to know and understand where we fit in our stance with eternity.

There is a very real resistance to moving forward with God today in the churches.  The people are idle (even in spirit filled churches) with no regard to changing and becoming Christ like.  Many have no concept of the cost of discipleship and teaching about suffering for our stance in Christ.

These are sluggish, slothful, and don’t want things to change.  To these who don’t want to rock the boat; they substitute programs, wanting instead a social, status gathering or club, in which Christ has no part in.  These also are using the church for merchandising.  These have a form of godliness but deny the power thereof, from such we are warned to turn away.

I see nothing in scripture that calls for such programs or teachings that encourage others to do nothing and remain unchanged.  I found that Jesus entered the temple and turned over the money changers tables in anger, stating My house is a house of prayer and you have made it a den of thieves,   Matthew 21:13.

Holiness is a foreign word to them and they are so far removed from the scriptures they believe in.  They trust the preacher to tell them the scriptures and have no study to back them up at home.

Start talking about holiness and watch the people start calling you a legalist or worse, a false prophet.  However, when asked about scripture, many have no idea what they believe or where to find it.

There is a tendency to go with the “herd mentality” and many in this system who are truly saved get stuck in a miry pit or run over.  It takes the LORD’s people to pray and remove them from the pit of destruction through intercession.  Shepherds gently lead their flocks, but herds are driven.

The Church has an existing state of rest or motion that will continue on it’s path of destruction unless that state is changed by an external force; meaning God must change it!

If the church continues on the same path (of rest and uniform motion) It will take a move of God to change the path of destruction.  God will help those that are wayward find their way back, but for many the strict, sacred and undefiled words of the Holy Bible are not applicable anymore.

There are others with lots of zeal who are sincere but sincerely wrong.  These think they are doing Gods will and going along a straight road to destruction and can’t see the peril their in.  Discipleship is so important! It will take prayer and God to changed their directions.

Zeal without knowledge is just as bad, as they believe their salvation is based strictly on their works.  Both states are wrong.  You can’t win by going with the program of religion and traditions; It will take you down and you will wonder why it happened or worse you turn away from God.

Following Christ isn’t easy, but his love for us is eternal and that never fails.  He is our exceeding great reward!

Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.  For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God but not according to knowledge,  (Romans 10:1-2 KJV).

“For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, truce-breakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away,”   2 Timothy 2:3-8 KJV.

“Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; as obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance; but as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye hold in all manner of conversation; because it is written, be ye holy, for I AM holy,”  1 Peter 1:13-16 KJV.

And this I do for the gospel’s sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.
Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize?  So run, that ye may obtain.  And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:  but I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway,”
  1 Corinthians 9:23-27 (KJV).

We are in a race together!  A race to share the gospel of  Jesus Christ before we draw our last breath or time ends. At that point, all opportunity for heavenly reward will cease.

There are all types of prizes for earthly contests and races.  The Bible says these prizes, or crowns of sorts, are perishable so will not last forever as they must be left behind when we die. No one takes their Super Bowl ring, Olympics medal, Purple Heart for valor, movie or song trophies, boy scout medals, or school awards with them beyond that veil called eternity.

But there is a race that we’ve all been entered in — like it or not. There are those who can hardly wait to race to accomplish His purpose and plan, or those who just stand at the starting line when it is time to run (no interest in pursuing Jesus), or those who want to quit and wait back in the comfortable locker room (turned their backs on Jesus and His race).

Jesus promises an imperishable crown.  No one can take it from you and it will be yours forever. Think of that! The wonder and awe of being honored for eternity for choices made here = astonishing!

We need to take care how we run this race.  Castaways are just lost souls. They are adrift in a salty sea. How can they answer the call, “Who will go for us?” You cannot reach out to the lost when you yourself do not avail yourself of the cardinal compass points called God, Jesus, Holy Spirit and the Bible (Hisword of truth). You’re just hopelessly lost unable to even find the track where the race is being held without faith in God and his plan of salvation through Jesus’s atonement.

As in an earthly race there are rules to follow if you want to win. TURN OFF YOUR TELEVISION. TUNE OUT SOCIAL MEDIA. LISTEN TO PRAISE MUSIC INSTEAD OF SECULAR JUNK-FOOD FILLERS THAT JUST WASTE YOUR PRECIOUS TIME. Pursue that which God promises to reward. Be kind to yourself. Imagine the most buff workout coach you can, then BECOME THAT PERSON BUT IN A SPIRITUAL SENSE. BECOME A HURDLER OF OBSTACLES THAT COME AGAINST YOU AS A RACER.

For the Spirit-filled Christ follower, we are given guidelines for winning:

  1. Self-control — shrug off the chains that attempt to entangle and drag you down and out to be disqualified. Who can run with their feet entrapped by chains?
  2. Preach to others through your example, in word and deed. BUT — be careful to not participate in self-deception with unclean hands and impure motives that you would be a castaway and be disqualified, for lustful desires for fame, power position, sexual brokenness in its myriad dysfunction forms is our greatest enemy. Obedience to our call must be first.

On Christmas Eve, Ebenezer Scrooge is locked up in the darkness of his dim house. Dickens tells us, “Darkness is cheap, and Scrooge liked it.”

Today, we still know that darkness is cheap, easy to find, and its raw materials of despair and denial are in abundant supply.

Scrooge liked darkness, as we often do, because it hides what we fear, keeps us from facing what is true and allows us to be blind to truth.  But like so many things that come cheaply, our overindulgence in them comes at great cost.

Out of Scrooge’s darkness appears the ghost of Jacob Marley, Scrooge’s former business partner.  Marley comes not to haunt Scrooge, but to free him.  Scrooge sees that Marley is bound in chains.  “Why are you fettered?” Scrooge asks.

“I wear the chain I forged in life,” Marley says.  “I made it link by link, and yard by yard,” and he tells Scrooge that the chain that will fetter him in the darkness is even longer, heavier and harder still, if he does not leave the darkness.

WOW!  There is a lot of wisdom here!  Though chains placed by others might fetter us, most of our chains are forged by the part of our spiritual self that likes the darkness and shuns the light.  Marley was fettered to cash-boxes, deeds and ledgers, as was Scrooge.  What would fetter or chain you?

Jesus coming into the world — God in human skin — announced what had been hoped forever, that the captive person would be released from the darkest prisons — physical and spiritual.  To our inner spiritual soul, our chains and fetters will be crushed, if we are willing to leave the darkness.  Like Scrooge, do we need to be scared out?  Shaken from slumber?  Scrooge could not receive the simple gift of Christmas, so ghosts rather than grace were sent.  But, the result is love.  We need the light of God’s love that by its very nature is a love that comes to give us value and worth, not a love that comes because we are already valuable and worthy.

 

The entire point of “A Christmas Carol” is that Scrooge is entirely unworthy of God’s mercy, because Scrooge has no mercy!  But!  Mercy and love come to Scrooge through the judgment of the ghosts, and this “transformation” makes the unworthy Scrooge, worthy again.

The light of God that comes as love, forgiveness and hope is a light that brings judgment.  I know that most of us get uncomfortable when talking about God’s judgment, because we are so afraid that we are unworthy of God’s love.  But, look at Scrooge!  Without God’s light, without the promise of God’s love, Scrooge is doomed!

It is love and judgment bringing him into the light.  Can we now see that judgment by God as a form of God’s love?  His way of exposing the darkness of our own souls?

Oh friends!  Will we ever fully learn that God does not love us because we have value , but instead, HE loves us to give us worth?  Life without the pure love of God coursing through our being is a vapor and miserable!

Let’s say to the Spirit of God with all of our hearts, the words Scrooge humbly uttered after he was confronted and faced his darkened heart.

“I will honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year.”

What is Christmas?

When Heaven kissed earth with the greatest act of sacrifice …  sending us a Redeemer, who is Christ the LORD.  THE Spirit of CHRISTmas.

My note: Listen and watch the video praise song “Mary Did You Know?” performed by Pentatonix which follows the birth of baby Jesus who is in reality the world’s great I AM. Christmas is only the beginning with the birth of God’s sacrificial lamb. Jesus is returning soon, all grown up, with the keys of life an death. He is the only sheep gate to God, the eternal Father.  Are you willing to humble yourself before God and ask him for forgiveness of your sins, then turn and follow Jesus into 2017?

 

I’m thinking adding Matthew 25: 1-13 to our daily devotional readings and collective memories would also be a good idea since I woke this morning to the phrase, “Time to trim your wicks and get your lamps ready.” Message delivered by Michael. I was struck by what an old-fashioned term “trim your wicks” was and instantly knew this referred to the wise and foolish women waiting for their bridegroom (Jesus). We do indeed need to stop arguing over small points of doctrine (like the logs in our eyes which need to be removed) and draw close to our Lord for all time and pray that we are worthy with clean hands and a pure heart of love for those around us — both the lovely and unlovable. Supernatural Oil is added to our lamps only by God’s grace and how we are spending our time and devotion while waiting for our bridegroom, Jesus Christ.

Only half the people waiting for Jesus were ready (5 of 10) with fresh oil in their lamps. Your burning unction daily should be to drop all distractions calling you away from your first love, Jesus Christ. One day soon we’ll see his face…no more pain and suffering..love will have won…but only if you are ready. Measure everything on your daily “to-do” list with this phrase burning through your hearts and minds “Time to trim your wicks and get your lamps ready.”

In 2016, Hanukkah begins at sundown on Christmas Eve. This is a conjunction of the miracle celebration of consecrated oil being found for temple ceremonies with the Christian holiday of Christmas — the day God became the light of the world in flesh as Jesus Christ…They had to trim their wicks and get their lamps ready!! Coincidence? We’ll see at this month unfolds.

“And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your young men shall see visions, your old men shall dream dreams,”   Act 2:17.

“Then He said, “Hear now My words: If there is a prophet among you, I, the LORD, make Myself known to him in vision, and I speak to him in a dreams,”   Numbers 12:6.

“Thus speaks the Lord God of Israel saying, “Write in a book for yourself all the words that I have spoken to you,”   Jeremiah 30:2.

“In the towns where Jesus had worked MOST of HIS MIRACLES the people REFUSED TO TURN TO GOD. So Jesus was upset with them.” (Matthew 11:20) Talk about exasperating and infuriating! Can you imagine? God’s son, Jesus, leaves his majestic heaven and has come to earth to offer Father’s salvation. By now, the people have already personally witnessed him heal the blind, make the lame to walk, healed the skin-eating destructive disease of leprosy, open deaf ears so they could hear talking, music and laughter, and people who have ceased to live and breathe (the dead) have been raised back to life. (paraphrase of Matthew 11: 4-5)

Then the people seem to think, well that is all well and good, but what else do you have to convince us? We’d like to see you transformed right here. We would like certainty to replace faith. But — Where would be the reward in that? It would be like if God, today in 2016-17, began to write in the clouds: “Attention please! I AM is god. JESUS IS MY SON. Holy Spirit is our comforter. The BIBLE is my truth. Believe in me now as I have plainly written this for you.” So then the people would believe and say, “Finally, you have taken out the faith factor, and I will believe you because I must. I cannot doubt any more. I don’t need faith for what is plainly revealed.”

BUT…God is looking for a people who believe without seeing. His blessing and favor rests on those who believe his Holy scripture and first-hand accounts of the apostles and prophets, but have not seen Jesus in the first century as he walked the earth for 33 years. Over and over the Bible offers blessings for faith.

(Word from John W. Johnston): THE GOAT FARMERS OF THE WEST AND OF THE UNITED STATES Over the last several months the Holy Spirit kept quickening me (John Johnston) to write about the goat farmers of the west. I was clueless about what a goat farmer is, and the Holy Spirit said, “I will help you”. Here is what I was shown. Let the message begin!

I was transported into a giant church parking lot and I stood there looking around and I saw hundreds of cars. My attention was drawn to the Great Warrior King Jesus, who said “Look and behold!” I looked and I noticed that all the cars were brand new and there was not a ragged car in the whole parking lot.

I noticed there were crowds of people going into this mega church. I saw that all the women were dressed in the finest apparel with the finest jewelry and expensive hand bags and the smell of fine perfume. As we walked towards the entrance of the church I noticed all the men were wearing expensive suits and they were reeking of the finest colognes. I noticed on the outside they all looked clean, trim and proper and without a care in the world.

As we approached the front door of this huge mega church I also noticed there were gallows blocks as far as the eyes could see. There I saw sheep hanging two feet off the ground strung up by their hind quarters. They had bibles tucked under their front legs. They looked like they were paralyzed and could not move. They were strung up as though they were outcasts and were about to be slaughtered.

I found it a very strange and bizarre sight to behold. Image walking into a mega church and seeing sheep hanging on gallows blocks two feet off the ground! As the people went into the church and got seated, the auditorium filled up. Then, the Great Warrior King Jesus said to me, “Look and behold, and pay strict attention to what you are about to see.” Most of the things He was showing me and telling me I have known for many years, but brother what I saw in this vision was unbelievable!

This goes with the writings in the Book of Ezekiel.

I sat down in a front row seat and the Pastor came up and called the congregation to order. They began the worship with a rock and roll band that was a big entertainment type band. This band was to entertain the hundreds of people who had come into the church. The Holy Spirit said “Look and pay close attention to what I am about to show you.” As I looked at this rock and roll band and the so called choir and the worshipers, I noticed that there was a giant golden calf on the stage.

I said “Father I know that the golden calf was worshiped in Egypt. And I know that the Hebrews built a golden calf while they were waiting for Moses to come down with the Ten Commandments because they had grown impatient and decided to build their own god that they could see, touch and worship.” And He said to me “this is all entertainment and spectacle.” He said “They do not care about me or my teachings, it is all entertainment.” He said “Ninety-nine percent of the worshiping that you see with this rock and roll band and with the golden calf is sin in my eyes!”

I continued to listen and pay attention to what was going on around me. After they hyped the people up with their worship, I noticed that not one song pertained to the cleansing blood of Christ Jesus for the remission of sin and for healing and deliverance. The worship was for entertainment and they deleted every song that pertained to the cleansing blood of Jesus Christ. The reason is because they are in gross sin and the thought of the blood of Jesus makes them cringe. Without hearing of the blood of Jesus they would not be made to think of their sin.

Then the Father said “These are nothing but dead symbols, they do not impress me at all.”

I continued to look on as God the Father let me see other things. The Pastor got up and read a few announcements and told how sweet everything is and how well everything is going. He spoke about the building funds and all that the church was doing.

Then immediately in the spirit realm all the people in the church, except for a few, took on the appearance of goats. I looked up at the Pastor and the strangest thing took place right before my eyes. I saw him transform into a goat! What amazed me was he had the legs of a goat, the chest of a man, and the arms of a man, but his head looked like the head of a goat with huge horns. It blew my mind! I stared at this in amazement and asked the Father “Lord, what is this?” He said, “This is a goat farmer. I will tell you more about him later.”

As I turned around and looked at all the people in the church, except for a few, I noticed I was surrounded by goats. The people’s heads were that of a goat! I was amazed and said “How is this?” He said “Let me explain something to you. The goat farmers never preach on gross sin or wickedness. They never preach or talk about eternal damnation. They preach prosperity gospel and never talk about going into the Garden of Gethsemane to be tested and broken. Most of what you see right now is a bunch of rebellious asses.” I said “Lord, why am I here, for I already know this has been going on?” He said “I want to show you first hand.”

As I looked through the congregation they were all clapping and cheering. They were all very wealthy and were making some kind of confession of Jesus, but deep down inside they did not know Him, did not know the gifts of the Holy Spirit nor did they move in the gifts. They knew nothing of the Holy Spirit. Some prayed for their conscious’ sake, but for the most part they wanted their cake and to eat it too; they wanted prosperity. They wanted and loved the things of the world. The goat farmer never taught them nor trained them that if they wanted to be a disciple and wanted to follow after Jesus they would have to crucify their flesh. It is their flesh that gets them in trouble. The flesh leads them astray; the flesh causes them to fall away. This is what Satan prays upon, the flesh.

The goat farmer pastor told the people/goats that God was going to bless everybody and told them to make sure they give their weekly tithe. He said to give ten percent of their weekly income and God would bless them ten fold.

What amazed me was that the goat farmers are riding around in 60 and 70 thousand dollar cars, living in $700,000 to one million dollar homes, plus all the perks and per diems that go with it. I was amazed at everything I was seeing!

The Father wanted me to watch the next part of it. I looked and beheld the prophets of the church, and they were prophesying about the great by and by and how great everything was and how God was going to bless them, and how God was going to take care of them and do all these great things, and that they were all going to have great wealth and prosperity.

I was reminded of what Jesus says in scripture, “Woe to you when all men speak well of you, For so did their fathers to the false prophets.” (Luke 6:26)

These are the same goat false prophets who prophesy the delusions of their minds, never warning or prophesying to the people to repent of their sins or to repent of ancestral and generational sins. They NEVER tell the people to humble themselves and kneel and fall on their face before God All Mighty and be delivered and set free. This is never taught in the church.

The goat farmer Pastor then gave a lukewarm, watered down message to the congregation. In my opinion he blew smoke up… and made them feel good! He never mentioned repentance of gross sin, sexual morality, witchcraft, sorcery, idolatry, pride, hatred, bitterness, envy, strife, lust, fornication, adultery. Year after year the goat farmer never once talked about these things. The goat farmer never talks about dividing the year up into four quarters. Three months of teaching of the gifts of the Holy Spirit, three months of teaching of exorcism, demons and spiritual warfare, and three months on evangelism, three months on the holiness and the reverence of God. It is a free for all in the churches today! Everybody in this church did what seemed right in their own eyes and God’s red hot anger burned at them, but they were too far gone to realize they had been turned over to a reprobate mind.

Scripture says in 2 Th 2:11 “God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie.” Scripture also says in Isa 66:4 “So will I choose their delusions, And bring their fears on them; Because, when I called, no one answered, When I spoke they did not hear; But they did evil before My eyes, And chose that in which I do not delight.”

God is now sending a lie and they believe it. It is not the devil; it is God sending it because they have no love of the truth.

The prophet Ezekiel speaks of why God really destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. Yes God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah because they were living in sin but Sodom’s prosperity had caused them to grow prideful and neglect the poor and needy. They would do nothing but feed their own flesh, and because of this God destroyed them.

Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had pride, excess of food, and prosperous ease, but did not aid the poor and needy. (Ezekiel 16:49)

Most goat church people don’t understand this. We must help the elderly; help the poor, the down and out and the outcasts. God has once again been provoked into red hot anger. In the days to come, Russian T-9 tanks are going to level every church in the United States and this will be God’s justice because the church of the west has become so satanically and demonically corrupt that God’s red hot anger is burning at them and they are too stupid to realize it.

After this I went outside and there I saw the sheep hanging on the gallows blocks. I approached the sheep and started talking to them and I asked “Why have you been strung up by your hind quarters?” “Why are you hanging upside down here?” One sheep said, “I tried to warn the Pastor that the Satanists infiltrated the church and have set up shop here. I was told it was a bunch of nonsense and he told me not to talk such foolishness again and to get out and don’t come back to this church speaking that type of nonsense.”

I talked to another sheep and he said, “I tried to warn the congregation to repent of their sins and humble themselves and bow down like a bent reed and repent of their idolatries and witchcraft. I was thrown out and told to shut up and that I was a heretic”.

I spoke to another sheep that is a prophet and asked “Why are you strung up here?” He said, “Because I kept telling the pastor that the full and complete day of darkness is coming upon the world. I told the pastor that he needed to call the whole congregation to repentance and to be broken and contrite before the Lord because the great day of darkness is coming upon the earth. He told me to shut up that they didn’t want any doomsday prophets in their church.”

I went down the line talking to the strung up sheep and heard the horror stories of how they were abused and kicked out and how some of the sheep asked for humanitarian aid and groceries. The shepherds, these goat farmers, said “We don’t have enough money so we can’t help you.” Yet it is amazing that they can drive around in a 60,000 dollar car and live in a million dollar home with all the perks and per diems and couldn’t take $150 to $200 out of his pocket to give to one of his congregational member’s so they could get some groceries.

God’s red hot anger is burning at these shepherd’s and the leaders of HIS flock. Little do they realize that the scripture will soon be fulfilled, for on that day God will separate the sheep from the goats. (Mat 25:32-33)

There are many true little sheep and many have done everything in their power with the Holy Spirit to warn the goats not to go the way they are going. But the goats refuse to listen so these sheep have become outcasts.

I encourage you to remember what is written in the Book of Revelation chapter 18:4, come out of her my people and do not participate in her sin.

If you have become an outcast in your church because you have tried to warn of gross sin and are doing the Word of God the Father; or because you don’t have the fine apparel or a bunch of money and a nice car and a nice home, be encouraged! Your reward is going to be great! I encourage you sheep to keep on doing that which Jesus has told you to do; feed the poor, help the homeless, be a friend to the friendless, love the unlovable, and seek God’s face night and day, and be found having faith when He returns. You have the greatest gift, the power of the Holy Spirit!

God Bless You!

Go into your local bookstore — worldly or Christian. Walk around the myriad choices of religious books. Puzzle over where to find salvation on the shelves and among the stacks. What will lift you to eternal life as you stand in the valley of decision over your soul’s final home? Do you need to become a scholar on religious writings and antiquity? What if you do not speak Latin, Greek and Hebrew? What if the task of comparative studies seems way too complicated in your busy life?

I have GOOD NEWS! Only one book brings eternal life and salvation. Mankind, as usual, has made finding Holy Spirit way more complicated than it is by trying to make money and sell religious books and advice. This has obscured the truth that God’s word, divinely inspired and written down in his Holy Bible, is all one needs for salvation.

God’s free gift of salvation and how to be grafted into his heavenly kingdom of believers is detailed from the Bible’s opening book of Genesis which tells of Jesus being with Father God at the creation of the world, then mankind’s fall at the garden of Eden due to his unrepentant sin nature, with Messiah being foretold through the prophets and the psalms of worship which wraps up the Old Testament. God is silent for approximately 400 years, then at just the right time in the fields of Bethlehem where shepherds watched over sheep destined for temple sacrifice in ancient times, near Jerusalem in modern day Israel, the angels of the Lord offer the GOOD NEWS that a savior has been born, who is Christ the Lord.

In the opening chapter of John, the apostle, he tells us Jesus came as a human into the world to save us from our sins as “the Word made flesh.”  Jesus becomes a human. He leaves heaven to become the last sacrificial lamb offered for the salvation of every human soul that is to follow. The eyewitness writings of Christ’s apostles is detailed in the New Testament includes the rest Jesus’s sin-free life, atoning death to take away the sins of those who believe he is the bridge offered by God, and resurrection after three days — being the “sign of Jonah” that Christ foretold to the religious brainiacs of his day — the Pharisees. Jesus warns against those with so much learning and “higher education” that the truth of God’s grace is obscured: “Be sure to guard against the dishonest teaching of the Pharisees! It is their way of fooling people. You teachers of the Law of Moses are really in for trouble! You carry the keys to the door of knowledge about God. But you never go in and you keep others from going in.” (Luke 11: 52 and Luke 12:1)

After the eyewitness accounts and letters of Christ’s apostles in the New Testament, comes the closing testimony of John, in Revelation, for what the future would hold as we near the end of the church age of grace some 2,000 years later. God does nothing major before he reveals it to his prophets beforehand so that all may know he is the true God, the only one who knows the end from the beginning. (He is still speaking daily to His prophets.Try reading through these websites for his current revelations: http://www.Thecallofthebride.com, http://www.Hiskingdomprophecy.com or http://www.Z3news.com. You must use discernment from Holy Spirit and ask God to reveal himself so you hear His still, quiet voice. HE WILL NEVER SPEAK AGAINST HIS WRITTEN WORD< THE BIBLE.)

Satan, our accuser before the throne of God almighty, hates this one book and so tries to hide it among many others. The word of our God will stand forever, which he knows, so that leaves him trying to destroy copies of the Bible, forbidding people in oppressed lands from owning a Bible, and having modern people be distracted from the simple pleasure of reading by technology, sports, shopping, etc., etc. to get us away FROM THIS ONE BOOK!

So — how many books do you need for a clear understanding of salvation? Only a Holy Bible.

Why aren’t pastors preaching passionately about eternal rewards and punishments?  Why are people so unconcerned about their eternity?  Why has Satan been so successful in his recruitment program? Have you ever asked yourself, where are you going when you die? Have you diligently studied scripture to show yourself approved? It’s God’s mercy time still. Repent now before it’s too late. Run towards Jesus, the lover of your soul. Don’t be a scoffer, an arrogant fool. One who says in his/her heart, “There is no God…no judgement or rewards for choices made in the body.” Christ alone, our cornerstone, should be everyone’s motto.

— Revelation 21:8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars–their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”

— Matthew 25:46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

— 2 Thessalonians 1:9 They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of his power

— Matthew 13:50 and throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

— Mark 9:43 If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go into hell, where the fire never goes out.

— Jude 1:7 In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire.

— Matthew 13:42 They will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

— Matthew 25:41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.

— Revelation 19:20 The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur.

— Proverbs 15:11 Death and Destruction lie open before the LORD, how much more the hearts of men!

— 2 Peter 2:4 For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;

— Revelation 20:13-14 The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what he had done. 14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death.

— Matthew 10:28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

— Ezekiel 18:20 The soul who sins is the one who will die. The son will not share the guilt of the father, nor will the father share the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous man will be credited to him, and the wickedness of the wicked will be charged against him.

— Luke 16:24 And he called out, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus to dip the end of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am in anguish in this flame.’

“You Will be Given Greater Weapons to Use Against the Enemy”

My bride, I love you and I long for you more than I can express to you in your earthly language.

I make myself known to you through My manifest and abiding presence. The world cannot understand this for they have been deafened and blinded and have no desire to know Me; but you know Me and I know you and I desire that you all would be one just as you are one with Me and as the Father and I are one.

You are the ones who have My love in your heart always because I have put it there. The ones who do not love, do not know me. They may know about me, but they do not know Me in the intimate way that is required to be My bride. You keep My commandments and they are not grievous to you because you walk in the power of My Spirit and you have put away all of the lusts of the flesh.

You are the ones who long for Me constantly and you never forget Me. You cannot imagine even one day where you did not speak to Me or worship Me. My bride would gladly give her life for Me, if it was required of her, because she knows that if this life is taken away from her, she will immediately gain the next, that is far greater than this earth can give her and she will stand in the presence of her true love.

My loves, the things that you will have to see will try your faith. There is so much coming, but I do not want you to fear, for if you do I will not be able to protect you, for you will open the door for the enemy to come in and attack you.

Once the event happens, I will give you more clarity and though the calamities will be all around, so will an ever increasing measure of My Spirit. You will have a knowing of what to do because I will give you specific instructions. You will need to find a secret place alone with Me so that I can give these instructions. Yes, your families and friends will need you, but you will have nothing to give them if you don’t seek Me first and foremost.

I AM your strength, your shield, and your helper and I will dispatch more angels to aid you than ever before too. If you are having problems with fear call upon Me for help, I will not condemn you, for the things that will be happening on this earth will be more horrific than you can imagine. You must just lay everything down before Me and let Me work through you, by the increased faith that I will put in your heart. You will need to stay in a constant state of worship, singing and praying in the Spirit always. This is how you will gain strength and faith My beloved bride. As you do this your power in the Spirit will increase and I instruct you even now to increase your alone time with Me.

Yes, you are the ones who have been chosen for this time on earth since before the foundations of the earth. You also had a part in this choice. You will be tested and tried more than any other generation before or after you. Anyone who tells you otherwise is a deceiver. The world you live in will never go back to the way it was. This is the time of the great harvest and the workers are so few, but you, My pure, holy, spotless, beloved laborers will have great rewards because of this. The rewards that you will gain will last for all of eternity and they are so much greater than anything that I can give you here on earth. You can’t even imagine what I have in store for you, even if I have taken you to heaven, because I have not shown them to anyone who has visited here. They are secrets known only to Me and the Father and you will be astonished by them!

I have said, do not set your hand to the plow and look back. Likewise those who set out into the harvest and stop their work because of fear, are not worthy of My kingdom. Do not long for the times that are past, as Lot’s wife, for you will be consumed as she was. You are not dogs who return to their vomit and you are not pigs that return to wallow in the mud after they have been made clean.

You are My overcomers and you have been given the power to trample over serpents, scorpions, demons, fallen angels and even Satan himself, by My blood sacrifice and the words of your testimony. You will not fear the death of this life because you do not love this world or the things that are in this world, for they are a deception and a distraction away from Me.

My beloved bride, you will be given greater weapons to use against the enemy than those that you have now but this will happen as the conditions on your earth become ever darker and cataclysmic. When the enemy comes in like a flood, I raise up a standard against him and you are the ones! You will just have to walk through a short span of complete darkness before I completely empower you. I know many of you do not understand this, but because of the rules that I have made for intervention on this earth, I cannot give you My full power until the enemy has been granted to use his full power.

The darkness will flee before the great glory that I will give to you!

I tell you that the enemy is no match for you!

You will help Me defeat him!

I AM your groom.

The Victorious King of kings and Lord of lords,

Jesus
Yeshua
Yahushua

Eph 5:25-27 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, that he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

Rev 18:23 The light of a lamp shall not shine in you anymore, and the voice of bridegroom and bride shall not be heard in you anymore.

Rev 22:16-17 “I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.”And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely.

Jeff Byerly used to live a normal American Christian life. He went to church on Sunday and Wednesday, worship band practice on Thursday, was on his church board, and tithed 10%. Even so, his heart was far from the Lord at times and he had secret sin that only He knew about, which he could not overcome. In 2012 Jesus spoke to him in the middle of the night and said “The time of the gentiles is almost over, you must get ready for My return.”

That is when Jeff started seeking the Lord with abandon and putting Him first every morning in worship and prayer. Suddenly the sins he had been struggling with for so long just vanished and God began speaking to him on a regular basis. In August of 2015 the Holy Spirit impressed on him to begin writing drown the messages, so in December 2015 he started a blog site called Holy Spirit Wind.
