04:21 AM - THE SIGNS.

Three men were standing near the top of the hill by the road, in the
pouring rain, attempting to pound a final large hand painted, rough sign into the
ground, that read: 

FINAL WARNING: THE END IS NEAR!

TURN AROUND NOW!

BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!

Just then, several cars sped past them, the drivers each stopped their cars and lowered the windows and after looking at each other and then back at the three men who stood in the rain...  They yelled,
"Yeah, yeah, whatever.. you stupid foolish crazy  people... dont tell me what  to do.. *&%$@! "
Moments later, from the curve below the hill that went over a bridge
that was now no longer there,  they heard the sickening sound of
screeching tires, silence and a then a big splash.

The three men turned to eachother and said,"Maybe
instaed of posting several signs... we should just put up a single sign that just says,

"THE BRIDGE IS OUT."

03:18 AM - Sarah Palin = modern day Esther.

If you're like me, you'll be glued to the television tonight to watch the first vice- presidential debate, which is being held at Washington University in St. Louis, Mo. The 90-minute debate between Gov. Sarah Palin and Sen. Joe Biden will begin at 9 p.m. EST and will be broadcast on all major television networks.

I've publicly endorsed Sen. John McCain and Sarah Palin, so you know for whom I will be rooting. I've reported in the Strang Report how unfair the media has been to Gov. Palin, even ridiculing her Pentecostal background. Now we've learned that tonight's moderator, Gwen Ifill of PBS, has written a pro-Obama book. So much for objectivity.

This is a call to pray for Sarah Palin. Read the incredible prophecy quoted below that is going around the Internet. At the end I tell about attending a huge Palin rally in Florida 10 days ago. Below, read about an important new book we just published by Perry Stone.

Pastor Mark Arnold in Lebanon, Ohio, wrote this true account. He first sent it out to a small handful of friends and relatives, never dreaming that, thanks to e-mail, it would travel around the world. As of today, he's heard back from 50 states, 36 nations, and several major Christian ministries and news networks, and he has received more than 11,800 e-mails.

When Arnold was asked what he felt the value was in letting this story go public, he said he is seeing people moved and coming out of the "caves" they've been in, coming alive and realizing that they need to get involved in the affairs of the nation and not sleep through this season as the church did when believers allowed prayer to be removed from schools.

Pastor Mark Arnold of Lebanon, Ohio, writes:

On Sept. 9, the McCain/Palin bus came through a little town called Lebanon, Ohio. The Lord allowed me to go to the rally [to give McCain and Palin] a message that He wanted me to personally deliver.

Sunday Night: A burden hit me that would only shake me to my knees--I prayed and wept for our nation. Never has my heart been so broken before God. I literally interceded for these wonderful people who do not deserve all the hate against them. The God-haters are going to try everything to stop them, but they will not succeed!

God is not pleased with the "bashing" in the news of this "anointed" person [Sarah Palin]. He has called her for this time! I promised God that I would pray and hold them up in prayer. I would "listen" out and be mindful of where they were. The following day is important in this time line ... because I didn't even know until God spoke to me.

Monday and into Monday night: The burden of prayer was so heavy that I was literally shaking and could not stop weeping. I didn't know that they were coming to Ohio. I prayed and walked and wept and walked. I prayed and prayed and wept and prayed.

Tuesday at 2:00 a.m.: God spoke these words to me: "Go turn the radio on!" Immediately the reporter's words were, "McCain & Palin bus to be in Lebanon later this morning for a 10:00 a.m. rally!"

Immediately on hearing that news, I heard God again. God said, "You are to go. You will meet them and give them a message for Me!"

I prayed as an intercessor and went to a place in prayer that I don't think I've ever been … because the Lord had just visited me … and I knew I was on a "mission." I had now been up since Sunday night … and now it's Tuesday and I've got to go on the "Word of the Lord." He sure became my strength as this unfolds.

I didn't stop praying until I drove over to the town and parked the car. The news would later report they were expecting 5,000 people, [but] the actual head-count of those who had been scanned was more than 10,000 people.

I simply obeyed … and God actually told me where to stand, who to talk to … and when to be on the move. I had sure learned on the mission field, when God wants to open a door, He will do it at the appropriate time. He always has someone to assist … and even those standing beside you may just be an angel.

I struck up a conversation with an agent on the ground. He simply said, "I can't allow you to stand here!" Here is where the bus was going to actually pull up to. They had to make a much larger perimeter, so the entire area was now being moved back several blocks. The only other thing he told me to do was to go through the metal detector zone and just watch from the back. So, that's what I did.

Due to [the] sensitivity of the Internet, I can't share much of the story. As to what happened next, [it] was a definite God thing all the way.

Looking over the shoulders and backs and heads of all those people … I knew it would take a miracle for what God told me to do.

As I was standing there, two Boy Scouts came running up my back. Literally, they almost knocked me to the ground because they were running so fast behind me, up my back and over to the right. These Boy Scouts were about Junior High age. Their Scout Leader and several others were behind them, but as the two out front [were] trying to push through the crowd, saying they were late, the smaller scouts were left in their dust. The Scout Leader, who was with a McCain rep. from the State, grabbed me and told me [to] bring the other Scouts up front as they try to keep up with the first two that just came through.

I just became the leader of the rest of the Scouts to lead them right up front and center. As the rep. was shouting back at me to bring the Scouts forward, the people parted just like God parted the Red Sea.

I marched those boys right up front and to the right of the stage as one was looking from the back. When I got there I was fifteen feet from the podium. God said, "Stand here, and don't move from this spot."

Within five minutes the bus pulled up, and around the other side McCain, Sarah Palin and her husband, Todd, stepped up and the speeches took off. I was where God placed me … and even Sarah Palin and Todd were standing on my side of the stage. I made eye contact, I gave them thumbs-up gestures … and I knew they were just happy to see me standing there. Ha ha.

When they came around the podium and started on the other side, I knew they were coming right toward me. A little lady who stood by me, reached up and told the rep. that they had promised a picture with her because she was the one who had lost a son in Iraq recently. The rep. confirmed she would get a pic with them and they would talk to her.

When McCain came to hug her … he immediately shook my hand and following his moment with her, I shook his hand as he grabbed my hand, now for the second time, and I said, "God wants you to know that I'm praying for you, Sir!" He thanked me and kept smiling. I repeated that phrase to him five times. He grabbed my hands and looked right into my eyes and said, "I won't make it without prayer. Sir, thank you for praying for me, and don't let one day go by that you don't pray for me. I need all the prayers that I can get. Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

As he moved to my right, Sarah Palin came over to my left side … standing over the crowd and then looking at the little lady who had lost the son. It took a moment for her to shake some hands and people were pushing in all around. Sarah came and got on her hands and knees on that side of the stage and hugged that little mom, telling her, "It was not in vain." She promised her support.

It was at this moment Sarah Palin reached out for me to help her up, and as I was assisting her to stand, I was now face-to-face with her, and God said, "Open up your mouth and I will fill it."

Here is what came out:

"God wants you to know that you are a present-day Esther!"

[She immediately began to cry!]

"God wants to tell you that you are chosen for such a time as this!"

"You are called, and chosen to be a leader."

"Don't lose heart and don't fear man."

"The news and naysayers and criticizers are going to be very hateful toward you … and in the days ahead they are going to turn up the heat … but do not fear."

"You are a present-day Esther." You are an Esther. You are an Esther!

"Keep your eyes on God and know that He has chosen you to reign!"

"Stay strong ... be strong ... don't tire. Don't be weary in well-doing. Be strong."

Her husband, Todd, came over, and I told him what I told her. He began to cry.

I emphasized the fact that he was to guard her at this time … and know that "she is God-called and God-anointed."

"This is a God-thing and your wife is a present-day Esther ... she is for God to use at this time ... she is an Esther ... she is an Esther ... she is an Esther."

"You will be hated … but stand strong … God has called both of you to stand!"

"We are praying and I am praying for you!"

At this moment, McCain came right to where I was finishing talking to Todd, and I told Mr. McCain exactly what I told to Sarah and Todd Palin.

"Mr. McCain … they are called of God and she is an Esther."

"Don't lose hope and don't lose heart."

"We are praying for all of you!"

He shook my hand and with a deep look of understanding what I had just said, he said, "Thank you for your prayers and support ... I really do mean that!"

And he turned and shook more hands … and I watched them as they went through the crowd.

When I got to my car I sat there for quite a long time … knowing the God of the universe had just used me to deliver a message confirming to Sarah and Todd to realize they are truly chosen vessels of God.

I wept. I have not stopped praying and crying. My heart is full knowing they had to have all the staging and all the hype and all the crowd … but the God of heaven and earth … wanted to give them a divine God-appointment!

To God be all the glory and honor.

06:34 PM - The Many Faces of Adultery

About a year or two ago, I was talking to a friend of mine about different issues. One of the issues that came up in our conversation was the issue of adultery. The question from my friend was, 'what exactly does adultery consist of'? After researching that same question, I found that our earthly definition of adultery varies from the biblical truths of what adultery is. According to Dictionary. com, adultery simply is "sexual relations between a married person and someone other than their spouse". This definition is an example of adultery according to the Bible - but there is more to adultery in the Christian faith than just sexual relations with someone other than your spouse.

I would like to share with you a story...

There was a young man who was a very lonely person. His whole life, he wanted no more than a female companion. This young fellow had no luck when it came to the opposite sex - it seemed as if no one even wanted to go on a date with this man. He wasn't a bad person - but he was a little on the heavy side. Because of that, he had low self-confidence. He thought that the reason why no one wanted to be around him was because he didn't look like the picture perfect guy that you see on magazine covers.

After years of trying to get just a single date, and after much rejection, he turned to the next thing that he could think of, pornography. He later became addicted to this sinful industry and the addiction lasted for almost 7 years.

I shared this story with someone a few months back, and asked the person I was telling the story to if this man committed adultery. Her answer was, "no, adultery is only committed against your husband or wife". I politely informed her that she was incorrect.

The man in the above story is now a saved Christian, happily married and expecting his second child. The man in the above story was me, and I am one of many people that committed the sin of adultery.

You see, adultery consists of so much more than sexual relations with someone other than your husband/wife - and it says so in the Bible! So, what does the Bible say about adultery then?

First, it is important to state the 7th of the 10 commandments.
The 7th Commandment says, "you shall not commit adultery" (Exodus 20:14). After researching the biblical meaning of adultery, I have determined that adultery comes down to sexual adultery and spiritual adultery. I have also determined that there are 3 types of sexual adultery. 1) The Act. 2) The Thought. 3) Divorce.

THE ACT

Lets first look how you commit adultery via the act. This form of adultery is heard about or seen frequently in our day and age, and it has been going on for a long time now. The act of adultery includes sexual relations with someone other than your spouse, but it is not limited to just that. Committing fornication, or having sex before marriage, is adultery.
The Bible tells us in 1 Corinthians 7:2 that "since sexual immorality is occurring, each man should have sexual relations with his own wife, and each woman with her own husband.
" I know many of us reading this (myself included) have at some point been sexually immoral, having relations with someone who is not currently our spouse. For me, I struggled with this in the "engaged" stage of my current marriage.
But the Bible tells us in 1 Corinthians 7:9 that "if we cannot control ourselves, we should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
" Sex is made to be an act of love between a married man and women, and the Bible tells us that if we can't control ourselves sexually, that we should get married to this person. It is always important to be in good standing with our Lord. My wife and I were not in good standing and were adulterous because of this, so we did what the Lord tells us to do - we got married. Our lives have been blessed since then. If you are involved in a sexual relationship, please consider getting in good standing with the Lord and get married.

Other types of adultery via "the act" include:

Premarital sex, sexual relations via prostitution. Basically, any sexual relationship outside the sacred bond of marriage is considered adultery, and is sexually immoral and sinful.
The Bible tells us in 1 Thessalonians 4:3-4 that "you should avoid sexual immorality; that we should learn to control our own body in a way that is holy and honorable".

THE THOUGHT
The 2nd type of sexual adultery is the thought. This is the form of adultery that I struggled with in the story I mentioned above. So what is sexual adultery via the thought?

- First, it is the thought of wanting to have sex with someone other than your spouse. We can see this in the story of Joseph and the Potiphar's wife.
In Genesis 39:6-20, we read that the "Potiphar left everything he had in Joseph's care; with Joseph in charge, he did not concern himself with anything except the food he ate. Now Joseph was well-built and handsome, and after a while his master's wife took notice of Joseph and said, "Come to bed with me!" But he refused. "With me in charge," he told her, "my master does not concern himself with anything in the house; everything he owns he has entrusted to my care. No one is greater in this house than I am. My master has withheld nothing from me except you, because you are his wife. How then could I do such a wicked thing and sin against God?" And though she spoke to Joseph day after day, he refused to go to bed with her or even be with her.

    One day he went into the house to attend to his duties, and none of the household servants was inside. She caught him by his cloak and said, "Come to bed with me!" But he left his cloak in her hand and ran out of the house. When she saw that he had left his cloak in her hand and had run out of the house, she called her household servants. "Look," she said to them, "this Hebrew has been brought to us to make sport of us! He came in here to sleep with me, but I screamed. When he heard me scream for help, he left his cloak beside me and ran out of the house."

    She kept his cloak beside her until his master came home. Then she told him this story: "That Hebrew slave you brought us came to me to make sport of me. But as soon as I screamed for help, he left his cloak beside me and ran out of the house." When his master heard the story his wife told him, saying, "This is how your slave treated me," he burned with anger. Joseph's master took him and put him in prison, the place where the king's prisoners were confined."

In this passage, we see how the Potiphar's wife struggled with adultery via the thought. She lusted over Joseph, and the thought of Joseph led her to attempt the act. Joseph was a Godly man, and refused to commit such a sinful act against his master. We could also go on about the other evil's committed by the Potiphar's wife, including lying - but that's a different lesson.

- The Second aspect of sexual adultery via the thought is the basis of why I decided to talk about this lesson; it is a struggle that I fought for many years, lust. People don't realize that when you look at pornography, or when you eye a woman or man walking down the street in a lustful manner, that you are committing adultery.
Jesus tells us in Matthew 5:28 that "anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
" Proverbs 6:25 also states that we "do not lust in your heart after her beauty or let her captivate you with her eyes.
" Lust is a sin many of us battle on a day to day basis, but a lot of us don't realize that when we lust, we commit the sin of adultery. So whether it be looking at a pornographic magazine, or looking lustfully at the other sex in a club, we are committing adultery in our hearts.

DIVORCE

- The Third aspect of sexual adultery is divorce.
Looking at the divorce side of adultery, Jesus tells us in Matthew 19:9 that "anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, and marries another woman commits adultery".
Jesus also says in Mark 10:12 that "if a woman divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery".
Shortly before this verse, the Bible tells us that, "what God has joined together, let man not separate"(Mark 10:9).
  The Lord God of Israel also says in Malachi 2:16, "I hate divorce".
Therefore, adultery is committed in the case of divorce, unless the divorce was due to marital unfaithfulness.

Lets shift gears now to remarriage, and how remarrying could mean committing the act of adultery. Let's first make it clear that remarrying is not always a sin.
The Bible tells us in 1 Corinthians 7:27-28, "art thou bound unto a wife? Seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? Seek not to be remarried.
But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned".
It is important to understand that "loosed" means "divorced". Now this verse stresses the importance of NOT remarrying after divorce, but it also states that it is not always sin to do so.

So when would you be committing adultery if you remarry? Basically, if you divorced your spouse due to unfaithfulness, and you were to one to blame for that unfaithfulness, you commit adultery by remarrying. The person you marry will also commit adultery, since you were unfaithful in your previous marriage.

Remember, God HATES divorce. Unless a divorce is caused by unfaithfulness (and you were the one who remained faithful in that marriage), it is an act of adultery.

SPIRITUAL ADULTERY

Another form of adultery is Spiritual Adultery. In short, spiritual adultery is anything that takes the place of God. Basically, spiritual adultery is when you make idols out of things, and put them first before the Lord: IE things such as money, cars, clothes and role models.
  The Bible says in Jeremiah 3:9, "because Israel's immorality matters so little to her, she defiled her land and committed with stone and wood".
The people of Israel were worshipping other gods and putting idols before the true God. By placing the Lord second behind their idols, and by worshipping other gods, these people committed spiritual adultery.

To prevent committing spiritual adultery, one must put the Lord Jesus as their top priority. God should always come first in your life - and by always keeping Him first in your life you will not commit spiritual adultery.

Now although adultery is a serious sin, it is not an unforgivable sin.
Let's look at John 8:1-11.
Its says that Jesus "went to the Mount of Olives. At dawn he appeared again in the temple courts, where all the people gathered around him, and he sat down to teach them. The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group and said to Jesus, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?" They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him. But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger. When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her." Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground. At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there. Jesus straightened up and asked her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?" "No one, sir," she said. "Then neither do I condemn you," Jesus declared.
"Go now and leave your life of sin".

You see, adultery can also be forgiven in us just as it was forgiven for this woman. If you find yourself struggling with adultery, turn to the Lord. That is what I did; and by turning to the Lord, my past adulterous sins have been forgiven completely.

In order to be forgiven of such sins as adultery, you must first accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and make Christ your number 1 priority in life. There may be some of you reading this that have not yet accepted Jesus Christ as their savior. I ask you to come today and give your life to Jesus Christ. It doesn't matter what sins we have committed in the past - including adultery.
The Bible tells us in 2 Corinthians 5:17-18 that "if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation.
" If you would like be in Christ, please say this prayer with me.
"Jesus, I need you in my life. I have sinned in the past Lord, and I need forgiveness and closure. Lord, please cleanse me of all my past sins and help me live a life that is Godly. I open my heart to you today Jesus. Please come in and fill my spirit with your holiness. Thank you Lord for your unending love. Thank you for staying with me, even through those times where I may have pushed you away. I give my life to you today Lord.
Lead me to do the works you are calling upon my life". If you would like to know more about our Lord and Savior, please don't hesitate to message me.

Adultery is a sin that many of us have struggled with, and continue to struggle with. We have an awesome and forgiving God - one that will forgive us even in the case of adultery. I ask you, please put Christ first in your life. I too had an addiction to an adulterous act - but the Lord never left my side. Keep your trust in the Lord. He will get you through whatever adulterous act that may be bothering your spirit.

Amen!

In the meantime, I have posted per request our first original MYSPACE writings from the

past that started it all. Hope you can sense the passion that ignited a man to move forward

and perform the duties as proscribed and commanded by our Lord Jesus Christ.

**********************************************

"I'm not here to entertain you nor am I here for your compliment or support. I'm here to

speak the truth and announce the will of our Father in heaven. If you expected some cute,

make-you-feel-good "Christian" content full of cute and tacky graphics then leave now and

come back when you are ready. It is my experience and the same can be said for many others

experience concerning what is "Christian", "Church", "Religion" There are many "Christian"

churches out there showcasing a large cross who have lost touch with the meaning of what

God intended for us via Christ and the body of church. For centuries the Church, willingly

and unknowingly contributed to this derailment but this too is a part of God's master plan

and it is according to His will. (sinners used for Kingdom building) see.. Caesar Augustus-

Julius Caesar- Blood line of Mary , Joseph- Moses, Solomon, David,,,,,A,I,J , Continued

sinners He used to fulfill, all Jews + Gentles, Law(mosaic).. Pharisee,+ scribes stance.

Religious leaders~ Mission works (done by the faithful))perished unknown some known but the

unknown are like Christ. To follow Christ means to go against the natural sinful nature of

your own flesh. So with training by the Holy Spirit you can achieve a deep Spiritual life

with Jesus today. He suffered, so shall you. So do not be perplexed nor in wonder why this

is suddenly happening to you it is the way the darkness pulls you to stumble and follow the

doubt from within and around. So run to the LORD and stay silent and utter sweet words to

the LORD and He will speak. His grace is sufficient for you. as It was for me. No more

sorrows nor anger no not even hatred for anyone, but pure love, for GOD is LOVE. Just

accept the WORD of GOD. You do this by accepting the Son, Jesus Christ and you will be

baptized by the Holy Spirit when you are called. so stay immersed in His WORD and attend a

good local church for fellowship , praise and worship and feeding with brothers and sisters

in Christ. Evangelize and be wise.. No matter how bleak you may find yourself thinking, DO

NOT BE DECEIVED. DO NOT LOVE THIS WORLD nor the things of THIS WORLD.

Now it is time for the truth to be exclaimed loudly so those who would hear can hear and

come to the light.

The internet was created for the Gospel but as with all good fruit, many evil and dark and

dirty infestations eat at the good fruit, some fall down feeding the darkness, some hang on

for the gardener to come. see my picture and know the you only trust the "TRUE VINE" and be

ready to be pruned and cleaned in some suffering for you are loved and will bear more

fruits.

Keep in ind all the prophets recorded in the Holy Books, each was killed by who? by the

religious leaders, the self-righteous types. know this as it is the way of the darkness.

stay clear of these false teachers, false followers, false sisters and brothers all with

great zeal but with sin hidden sin they mask profaning the LORD's name His Son's name but

they have no fruits. only judgment and deaf ears. stay away from the large churches where

they preach when they should be teaching the WORD of GOD. Beware of teachers who with good

intent they teach when they should be preaching! False teachers are many, see if they speak

from the WORD of GOD in full. Ask them when and where did they become BORN AGAIN? ask them

7 times if need be. see if they get angry, see if they love you as Christ loves all.

Blow the trumpet and heed the warnings of the prophetic persons who are amongst us. Test

them but you be pure and without ulterior motive, but to encourage and edify the body of

Christ. The global body of Christ representing many different cultures, tongues, custom but

all giving a loud shout to the Lord in praise & worship this is a strong case for the

singular voice, one baptism in CHRIST! Hallelujah~.. These are the days of Elijah.

or which causes you to unwelcome, less, judged, out casted, hated or worse, you were made

to feel guilty, a sense of coercion to accept the gospel? then you were in a wrong place.

that is not the type of church Christ intended. He was always speaking about the KINGDOM

and that You who accept Christ as the Church and these gatherings to

praise/worship/fellowship in WORD is the true essence a CHURCH of Christ followers.

Here's how you decide if something is genuinely Christian. If a Christian book, website, a

person or a church makes you to feel unwelcome in "anyway", including and in addition to

the above mentioned, simply forgive them in your heart and just walk away, you are doing

yourself a good thing.

You can go to heaven only with CHRIST in you and you in CHRIST see JOHN 15, in fact just

read JOHN in full and take close notes. again and again in prayer and ask the LORD to fill

you with His Spirit. The Spirit will intercede for you in all things. just clear out in

repentance so the LORD can work in you.

My MySpace will be a platform of free expression, to just speak the truth, based on His

story, so that a cathartic awakening would ensue spiritually by revealing God's love and

forgiveness via Christ and Spirit. And as a by product, the truth shall elucidate a person

and mentally destroy all that is false and temporary such as, deceptions, false followers,

false teachings and false prophets

Listen up, people, all those who seek and search for the truth will ultimately run into the

one and only triune, true God, or G_d, YHWH(courtesy for Israel & faithful Jews).

Everything will make sense regardless of your socio-economic status, if you would listen to

God and follow Jesus' teachings via the new and old covenants (Testaments). Furthermore,

you will be greatly helped by the Holy Spirit and in your awakening; you will suffer

initially by the ultimate loser, the disobedient fallen angel known as Satan and its

twisted underlings. So be battle ready by training yourself in His word and grow in wisdom,

as these dark spiritual elements dwell within your flesh and roam around you.

However, know this my dear brothers and sisters; you have been given the power of free will

by God, to decide for yourselves in all matters. To obey or not obey, thus, all temptations

are personal, meaning fleshly choices. In order to succeed in large things you must succeed

in many small things, this is a natural law, so obey God and resist these temporary

temptations during your walk with Christ and your faith will be strengthen. Keep in mind

the devil or satan and man will remember and remind you of who you were, so be forewarned

and protect yourself from everyone who is not in the light.

Constantly refresh your memory of His promise to all who follow Jesus' teachings and obey

God's command, once forgiven, God does not remember all your sins, nor does He remind you

of any of your past, present and future sins, you yourself may, but He doesn't.

Finally, He loves you and needs nothing from you to make Him God, just show your respect

and obedience because He sees you as who you are, a child of God.

It has always been a spiritual war from the beginning, therefore, when one obeys and

listens to God, we embark upon the spiritual realm as little children.

Like a child, we need help and guidance so that we can decide what to do. The instructions

lie within the Holy Bible on every needs of this child of God. the spiritual world is

clearer than the tangible conscious reality we live in. Truly know that our Father in

heaven, and the Holy Spirit, and His only begotten son, Jesus Christ,(Messiah) is in

complete control of all events, though it may not amicably fit well with our hope, needs,

wants, tastes, expectations and desires. God Himself came for us in LOVE & FORGIVENESS to

atone for all human sins via Christ' birth, teachings, crucification, death and

resurrection to satisfy the LORD's own righteousness, so that we can be found NOT GUILTY of

sin for those who voluntarily accept Christ and the Father and the Holy Spirit.

In any case, we were all once lost but some one planted the Holy Spirit's Seed. This is my

way of planting a million seed, in Jesus name I pray. Amen.

I'm a Sinner, then a Christian, then a father and husband and in this order I live my life

in redemption by Jesus Christ. Be Born Again!.. Accept Jesus and his awesome grace and

power to live righteously and be blessed with every gifts He has already prepared ready for

you! Hope you too can let go of your pains and follow Christ in complete Joy and

thankfulness. Two things you must do, hear His word (Holy Bible, I suggest KJV or the NASB

translations), and beware of many false versions and translations out there, so many false

teachers and followers who look and talk and act like they are of the truth, but test them,

each and everyone, see if they will help and pray for you in Jesus' name.

True and faithful Christians are all of his true and faithful disciples who stumbled and

cried many times, but kept on following Him(Jesus),(God) or (G_d). We must all be awaken

spiritually, meaning allegorically to die to be alive in Christ, so even when it is time,

literally, fleshly death has nothing to do with us, the brothers and sisters in Christ.

By the way, if you don't own a Bible.. see below for your own free Bible.

As this group grows in friends, I pray for a dynamic MySpace based ministry that is

accessible via online from almost everywhere.

In closing, I ask you the brothers and sisters in Christ to pray for me and this MySpace

effort.

May you be found blameless and pure at heart in Jesus Christ. S. W. Kwon SEEDS OF REVIVAL

Their modern day counterparts are many.. Be it Jews and Gentiles... these.. they love to

judge you and huddle in exclusive enclaves who cannot be truly graceful for they never

truly received the GRACE from the LORD via John 3 being truly BORN AGAIN in water, Spirit &

blood of the Lamb of God. Being lost and dead in the Holy Spirit, but alive in the spirit

of the flesh and man. Hope you know what I mean... They are the false ones coming to you in

the LORD's name and even in Christ name and delivering even His WORD but they have only

love for themseleves and hate you with judgement secretly and think they are special and

they mislead many who are little to no true faith. The Key to Chritianity aside from the

WORD of GOD and Christ in Spirit is PRAYER. PRAYER. PRAYER. If you see these so-called

Christians and they show disrespect, hatred in any form.. you know they are the truely the

lost ones, and these fills our churches and I say the churches are the most lonely and

dangerous places you can be in unless you are dilligent in WORD of God and live the life in

victory without compromise in the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Only those who are taught and trained and are the real ones who love and trust Jesus

Christ. DO NOT BE DECEIVED.

~ Do not judge but love! Why do you judge or leave scent of judgment? This is not to be

done nor condoned by man but reserved only for the LORD. Now the bible speaks of righteous

judgment and edification but if you read on it is all based in His LOVE to teach you. For

what have you if you have all but lack love... the LoVe for all in and out of Christ as His

grace demands?

~ Hatred is singularly reserved for the wicked, evil who with intent willingly lead many

astray from the light of Love Jesus Christ, the Truth, Way & Life in Christ, essentially

robbing them of the WORD of GOD, robbing them of a good life, unencourageing to the TRUTH.

These are the dark angels, dark spirits and Satan. If you know of Christ then you should be

be aware that it is all about the spiritual world, so be fed spiritual wisdom of Love in

Christ and maybe you too can share in the power of the LORD.

They [false Christians, false teacher, preachers, false prophets] all truly seek to advance

their own will, claiming to be doing the Father's will, so you know who you are here

online... You speak and think like your father Satan, always trying to deceive and destroy,

a cheap copycat. Lonely, rebellious, faith based on works but not grace.. twisted and at

times overly generous and loving but stinks of flesh and stupidity. In the name of Christ

Satan begone and go where you are useful, for this is the HOUSE of the LORD, a House of

Prayer.

Our LORD will reveal so all must wait on the LORD. However, The LORD compels me to speak

this truth, for

~NOW IS THE TIME.~

You who befriend and move amongst only those you feel comfortable with, you are the mark of

a person who may boast that you do have "uncomfortable friends" too.. then ask the Lord for

continued sacrificial embodiment in your walk with Christ. Do not be found as a secret

sinner, you who have such a selfish outlook, your speech, thought and your actions or

inactions are the evidence of your great sins against the LORD.

What little faith had once possessed will be taken away, for it is no faith at all.

However, to those possessing much faith, faith will be increased and added more and more by

the grace of our LORD. Jesus Christ spoke of this in great depths in all for accounts any

beyond. How will you stand when you know what you did not do! How will you stand when you

turned your face away? I see more and more Atheist living pure and good life it is a matter

of time for these good brothers to see the Lord and it is our service, duty and commandment

to share in the Gospel of Jesus Christ and not some guys 's gospel as being brain washed

from the pulpit! (not all church leaders are like this of course.. but many are in for a

rude awakening.)

I love true Christ followers, but I love atheists more because the ones I love know of His

love. So like as we are taught via HOLY SPIRIT in WORD of GOD in Love by Grace for Grace

and by Grace, we must love the darkness as God so loved the world He gave His only begotten

Son. Hope you all get it it is to encourage as it is deemed proper by the Lord via me a

sinner who He appointed to speak the truth boldly.! And if I upset any one of you, I cannot

apologize.

Go pray for the leaders of your home, nations, and church and read your bible honestly and

compare yourself only to CHRIST. Go and bear much good fruit.

Many good people reply to my friend request as follows:

" I'm an atheist... do you still want to be my friend anyway???"

I reply first with an apology for much of false Christians running around and their sinful

behaviors that have added to the larger Deceptions of the Darkness per Romans 1:18, I

welcome the atheist and theist with a friendship and agape love with only a requirement of

respect. I show my Christ love within me. This is the most excellent Christ-minded reply

and believe in Christ and follow Him you will understand as I have learned to hear His

WORD. Just do what you aree to do in Christ but the Lord causes all growth. The rest of of

to the Holy Spirit in Christ. Keep in mind one sows, and another reaps. Hallelujah!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Lord Jesus Christ is coming a lot sooner than most think!. This is not a joke, THIS IS

THE PLAIN TRUTH. Most Christians are secretly rejoicing and knowing this hidden wisdom at

the deepest level, we are united in the global body of Christ and will stand to see the

LORD of GLORY arrive AND TAKE US HOME TO PREPARE FOR HIS SECOND COMING, no one in the world

will deny His second coming.

If you are uncomfortable with this statement, then you are not a true Christ follower. So

then what? Just accept the Lord Jesus Christ honestly into your heart and speak to Him

only, quietly repenting your deeds in full, you need not plead nor beg nor prove your love,

He knows your honest tears.. it is the opening of your heart and LOVE from the LORD causes

you to seek God. He requires you to simply speak to Him. As soon as you do this in the name

of Jesus Christ, it is forgiven of you. period simple as it was always His intent to reach

those who are in any way hurting. It is you(us) who make it so difficult.

In your private place, as you read these ancient WORDS of instruction.. I now ask you in

His Spirit. Would you like to pray this simple prayer from your heart to complete the

transaction?
.:~slowly read and even more slowly speak to the LORD~:.

God, I come to you now in prayer. I want to know you personally. I admit that I am a

sinner. I have lived my life for myself, separated from you. I turn from my sin. I ask you

to forgive me for all that I have done against your will. Cleanse me by the blood of Jesus.

I accept Your CROSS for You paid for all my sins on the Cross. My Lord Jesus, teach me and

live in me as I will feed on the WORD of GOD. I receive the gift of forgiveness which I do

not deserve and I give the gift of forgiveness to all who have hurt me, the gift they do

not deserve. I give my life to you and submit to you as my Lord, my King & my Savior. Take

me now as I am. I confess from this day on that I am a Christian. Fill me with your Spirit

God. Join me to your family. Help me to live for you alone. I pray this in the name of

Jesus Christ, Amen.

<;{{{>< If you prayed this prayer from your heart, I want to welcome you to the family of

Christ. Please e-mail or comment so that we can give you prayers for support. God bless

you.<;{{{><

If you prayed this prayer from your heart and yeilded to the Lord your life in full then,

you have made the most important decision of your life. Get ready for you will now see how

you were once deceived from within you. The HOLY SPIRIT is living within you this is the

Lord Jesus. Now you MUST feed on the WORD of GOD. Start by reading the book of JOHN in the

New Testament (NT) and pray for the Spirit to intercede for you in all matters. You are

never alone. The Lord will always love you but it is You who will push His Love away with

SIN, so watch out! Feeding on the WORD of GOD provides your spirit to grow and cut away all

forms of sins from your life. Start each day with WORD of GOD and keep yourself holy for He

is holy in all you speak, think, do. Do not be deceived, TRUST only the TRUTH, ENJOY and

give thanks to the LORD.

++++++++++ ++++++++++ ++++++++++ ++++++++++
ABOUT me: God has called me to teach and preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ per Luke 4:18

(NT) & Isaiah 61:1-3 (OT) The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has

anointed me to preach good tidings to the poor. He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted,

to proclaim liberty to the captives and the opening to the prison to those who are bound.

Finally, on December 10, 2006 5:47pm PST. I received from the LORD a great calling, direct

communication via person, Spirit, and WORD.. while all alone at the doorway of my church in

Pasadena, CA Isaiah 58:1, and specifically Isaiah 58:11.

I will soon share my testimony concerning visions, angels, and signs, but I think this is

not the proper venue nor forum. I am obedient to the call of God on my life now, but like

many (hehehe) this was not the case, I heard His voice when I was in the 7th or 8th grade I

believe, I ignored and ran from GOD because I couldn't see what the LORD saw in me? Then

guess what since then, everything I move a pastor come to me and tells me he lives right in

front of my home, that's not all every woman I kinda was interested before marriage were

all pastors daughters! Then came marriage, law school,birth of my first son, global

technology business and I stopped running and He intervened directly as Paul may have

experienced well sort of. I was driving my car and while at a red light with my two year

old in the back seat it happened! I totally surrendered and in faith crucified my flesh and

said,"I want to just change for forever." "God take me and use me however you will."

Galatians 2:20 "I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ

who lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith by grace, not

by works, Grace alone by grace and for grace of God.

All followers of Christ are called with their unique talents so are you doing everything

that God has called you to do?

My e-mai: seedsofrevival@gmail.com

Beloved brothers and sisters, only compare yourself to CHRIST and no other man. No need to

boast, No need for pointing fingers that was your past, now hold on to the plow and look

forward, one who looks back is not worthy of the kingdom of heaven. Receive the Holy Spirit

in ever increasing measure, ask the Lord He does give everything you need as long as it is

to further His will and His kingdom.

In the beginning was the WORD!!!
,

WORD with GOD,

Word was GOD, ...

WORD became flesh (birth of Jesus Christ in the book of John),

His only begotten Son Jesus Christ is this flesh.

He is the living WORD of GOD!

Simply accept Jesus Christ as He is as He received you as you are. Jesus Christ is the only

Truth, Life and the Way...

No one can come to the Father God but by the door of Jesus Christ.

Christ completed paying for all our sins, for both the Jews and Gentiles alike there are no

distinctions or partiality.

However, our daily sins must also be revealed to Him and Him alone in Christ you ask and it

is granted automatically for Christ followers.

You really cannot sin once you are in His Spirit.

Thus, acknowledge God, repent your folly till now...

Sin no more and Trust GOD only.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jesus Christ is your Lord, King & Savior.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You must freely, voluntarily of your own volition accept the WORD of GOD.

Receive holy gifts and blessings direct from the LORD.

Bear much fruits in your walk in FAITH with Christ.

Wait on the LORD.

His grace is sufficient for you.

Like pure gold for the furnace, and the crucible for silver He prepares His sheep.

Be found pure and blameless as Christ returns very soon.

Go Home rejoicing, praising& glorifying the LORD.

Jesus Christ is the only WAY, TRUTH & LIFE. - Be Born Again.

Do not marvel that the world will hate you and point fingers and mock you as they did me.

Only be strong & courageous.

Let the Holy Spirit speak, pray and heal for you.

Pray deeply, Pray honestly, Pray with all your trust and faith in the LORD.

pray in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

You are blessed by the blood of CHRIST, Lord Jesus' name Amen.

All successful ministry need not great numbers at the start, all you need is "one perfect

seed".

Our Lord Jesus Christ while during His first visit here on earth started with himself, and

in 3 years time the Lord led thousands of Jews, with the help of 12 original followers who

was of the lowly, poor, the despised, the forsaken, the marginalized, the Lord left them

and gave to the remaining few followers the Helper, the Holy Spirit...

First in Israel, Judea, Samaria, then to Rome and beyond to the ends of the world... Now

2,000+ years later we have over 1 billion followers of Christ and growing! 1,000,000,000.

all from 1 perfect and good seed of LORD. The first seed Adam became a corrupted seed, and

caused the fall of man at Genesis 3 and we are all cursed as sinners by virtue of birth of

water. As you know bad seed usually begets bad fruits, which is no fruit at all, a waste of

time, life, energy, useless good for the fire, we are all of the seed of Adam, until we

recognize our deprived demented state of confusion and ignorance of the good and perfect

eternal seed which is our Lord Jesus Christ, and by being Born Again with the Holy Spirit,

a new birth is received and this is the only way to enter the kingdom of God. Read JOHN 3.

concerning the most important passage in the Holy Bible, Baptism of the Holy Spirit really

is this Baptism of Jesus Christ ( ater, Spirit & Blood).

Who I'd like to meet:
The Bible was written by chosen men of God with all their mistakes and self in flesh.. The

LORD speaks clearly with HIS WORD of GOD.

The writings are all inspired by God Himself for our salvation in accepting the Jesus

Christ as your only way to salvation, this is given to us by God by His Grace, and all

those who accept this gift of salvation shall be further trained by the Holy Spirit. Faith

refined will produce good works and it is a natural growth from your walk in faith with

Christ but not the cause of salvation. Compare yourselves only to Christ for one who is

truly blessed with the hidden knowledge of wisdom cannot sin as they once did unknowingly,

or willingly. if you do then immediately the weight of the LORD will press you down to

repentance in a clear statement. no need to beg for repentance.. this is wrong, simply

state what you did and ask for forgiveness but you must know that Christ died to wash away

the SIN of past, present and future on the cross.. so rest assured but do not sin again and

stay close to the WORD of GOD by feeding on the HOLY BREAD OF LIFE WHICH IS THE WORD OF

GOD.

Jesus in Spirit and as the LORD loves you those who are of His, He is constantly blessed

and watched over by angels and at times directly by Angeles. So do not appear proud even in

His grace to this world. But as He was here to serves others in love, wisdom and

edification, so shall your walk here on earth be like-wise. It is written, you are holy for

He is holy.

Be strong and courageous (Joshua 1:3)and truly live for God as Christ directed. Go make

disciples of Christ! You who claim to be sons of God, Are you really a Christian? .... Stop

and think what is first in your life? Jesus stated He will vomit you out for you are

lukewarm, neither HOT nor COLD(Reveletions 3:16).

The LORD searches the hearts and minds of men, He speaks to you who claim to be Christians.

~Do you believe in Jesus Christ? so does the devil.

~Do you follow Jesus?

~Do you trust Jesus Christ?

~Do you share the Gospel?

~Do you pray for others?

~Do you feed on His WORD?

~Do you pray to the LORD in Jesus Christ's name?

~Do you want CHRIST to return again?

Honestly REPENT only to the LORD not to any man and bring all glory to the LORD, our God,

Father in heaven.

We see this as given to us by our Lord Jesus Christ.

If you are of His new birth, Will you help plant just one small seed? It will grow in just

time to bear good fruits that yields more fruits.

Thank you for investing your life in Christ!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

OUR LORD KING JESUS CHRIST IS COMING!

Luke 12:40 Be ye therefore ready also,for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think

not.

Revelation 3:11 Behold,I come quickly, hold that fast which thou hast,that no man take thy

crown.

05:37 AM - Let us all pray Maranatha and Come Lord Jesus Come!

Let us all pray Maranatha and Come Lord Jesus Come!



Date: Oct 1, 2008 12:16 AM




Jesus Christ come  take us home.


During the early centuries, faithful Christians throughout the Roman Empire greeted each other with the ancient Greek phrase "Maranatha!" ("The Lord cometh!").

Their deeply held faith in the literal return of Jesus Christ to set up His kingdom is a foundational Christian belief and an important doctrine that has tremendous implications for our daily walk, our witnessing to a lost world, and our hopes for the future.

Jesus Christ commanded His disciples to be watchful and ready for the moment when He would triumphantly return, regardless of how long He might tarry. Despite the many centuries that have passed since He first gave the Church His promise, the prophecy of Christ's return for His followers is absolute and unshakable.



The life, ministry, trial, and death of Christ are inextricably involved with the promised kingdom. Jesus declared that He is the promised King and that He will return to set up His prophesied kingdom. Jesus taught His followers to pray the Lord's Prayer, which specifically focuses on the coming kingdom of God:

"Our Father which art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. . . . For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen" (Matthew 6:9-13).

While the prophecy of our eternal home in heaven is the glorious promise of God to all those who place their faith and trust in Him, Jesus also prophesied that the Christian saints will rule and reign with Him forever as priests and kings over the population of the earth.

The coming kingdom on God will someday encompass the entire universe including the earth, the New Jerusalem and heaven itself.

05:41 AM - Today marks the first day of Rosh Hashanah

The Trumpets are Blowing!
By Missey Butler

Today marks the first day of Rosh Hashanah. The literal meaning of this important Jewish Holiday is "Head of the Year" and it is observed as the start of the civil year (in comparison to the religious year which starts with Passover) on the Jewish calendar.


The Feast of Trumpets is the first of the fall feasts. It is very important in Jewish thinking to celebrate it alongside Yom Kippur ("Day of Atonement"). This makes up what Judaism calls "the high holy days" on the Jewish calendar.


It begins the "ten days of awe" before the Day of Atonement. According to Leviticus 23:24-27, this celebration was signified as a time of rest, "an offering that was made by fire," and the sounding of the trumpets.


Modern Rosh Hashanah (Ezekiel 40:1) is traced back to the Feast of Trumpets which is the blowing of the trumpets on the first day of the seventh month (Tishri) of the religious calendar year (Leviticus 23:24; Numbers 29:1). The trumpet mentioned here was the shofar, or a ram's horn.


This particular horn was unique from the silver trumpets that were blown on previous new moons. Silver trumpets were always sounded at the daily burnt offering and at the beginning of each new month (Numbers 10:10), but the shofar specifically was blown on the beginning of the month Tishri.


The time period between the last of the spring feasts (Pentecost or Weeks) and the first of the fall feasts (Trumpets) ties into our present Church Age.


We currently live between Israel's fourth and fifth feasts. The outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost started the Church Age, and the Trumpets signify Christ's second coming to rapture the Church and judge the wicked, which will be the beginning of the end of the Church Age.


The Feast of Trumpets occurs on the first day of the Hebrew month, Tishri. It would occur at the new moon. Only the slightest crescent would be visible. However, clouds could sometimes obscure the moon, and witnesses would be required.


Watchfulness was a critical ingredient of this feast. The rabbis later would include a second day to this feast to ensure that they didn't miss it.
This need for watchfulness and preparedness in connection with the Feast of Trumpets is spoken of throughout the New Testament in relation to  the Lord's coming:

    "Watch, therefore; for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come" (Matthew 24:42).


    "Therefore, let us not sleep, as do others, but let us watch and be sober-minded" (I Thessalonians 5:6).


    "Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior, Jesus Christ" (II Timothy 2:13).


    "So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation"" (Hebrews 9:28).


    "Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, in which the heavens, being on fire, shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless, we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, in which dwelleth righeousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless" (II Peter 3:11-14).


So brothers and sisters, you may ask what does Rosh Hashanah have to do with me? After all, isn't it  just another Jewish Holiday?

Not at all. Those of us who are called by His Name are admonished that during these High Holy Days of the celebration of the fall feast, we are to be ever watchful always looking for that blessed hope, the glorious appearing of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

CONTINUED... below

On Rosh Hashanah it is written, and on Yom Kippur it is sealed.


"The recordings of how many shall leave this world, and how many shall be born into it, who shall live and who shall die, who shall live out the limit of his days and who shall not, who shall perish by fire and who by water ... who shall be at peace and who shall be tormented ... But penitence, prayer, and good deeds can annul the severity of the decree" (A Rosh Hashanah liturgy).


One of the ongoing themes of the "Days of Awe" is the concept that God has "books" that He writes our names in, recording who it is that will live and who will die, who will have a good life and who will have a bad life, for the next year.


These books are written on Rosh Hashanah, but our actions during the preceding 10 Days of Awe can alter God's decree. The actions that will change these decrees are genuine repentance and heartfelt prayers. These books are than sealed on Yom Kippur.


This writing in books is the source of the common greeting during this time of which may be heard:
"May you be inscribed and sealed for a good year.
"

This solemn period of time is always commemorated during the Harvest season. It is a time set aside for deep introspection, repentance and atonement for sin.


The "Days of Awe" are an opportunity for all of us to experience genuine brokenness before God in a way like we have never known before. If we are honest, we have to admit that we really have nothing at all to offer Him except true repentance and a contrite heart.  And to Him … that will be enough.


For the scripture tell us,

    "The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise" (Psalm 51:17).


Let us prayerfully consider this to be a time of making the journey into Godly transformation. This will only happen as we humble ourselves and surrender to the process of His refinement.
Then, He can transform each one of us into the beautiful reflection of … "His Image!"

He is not wise in his own eyes but relies on the wisdom of God as revealed in His word.

He does not lean on his own understanding.

His decisions and actions flow from his study and meditation on God's word rather than from his own desires.

He takes great pleasure in his wife's body and makes love to her joyfully, frequently and unselfishly and is faithful to her.

He recognizes that his body is not his own but also belongs to his wife.

He uses his speech to edify and build up his wife and children.

He guards his tongue, using it for blessing rather than cursing.

He joyfully and abundantly provides for the financial needs of his family.

He praises his wife to others and treats her as a precious treasure.

His life reflects the fruit of the Spirit as found in Galatians 5:22 and not Galatians 5:18-21.

He is a God pleaser not a man pleaser.

He believes God ; and he follows Jesus Christ with his life.

please freely share pass around and send to all.

ALL glory given to God our Father in heaven in Jesus Christ name, Amen.

06:44 AM - What’s the problem in this ? look for the false teachings.

Dangers within ... it is not the Gospel of Jesus Christ

SEE IF YOU CAN LOCATE  the missing WORD,  Process  , correct  term use in the context  .. 

If you see nothing wrong with it...  please  read and slowly  comb through it and see that  if you actually follow this  path  you will  go to hell.

Wassup everybody

The following is a conversation
I had some time ago...

Somebody sent me a note asking --

"why we should fear GOD
If HE'S suppossed to love us"...

I'm thinking a lot of you Might be wondering the same thing
So I'm basically gonna tell you
What I told him.. Lol

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Wassup fam

That was a fair question...

But keep in mind,
Even parents punish the children they love
And that doesn't mean that they love them any less...

Well GOD doesn't want anybody
To go to hell....

HE Loves all of us and what's all of us
to turn to HIM (through CHRIST)

But at the same time,
GOD didn't make a bunch of robots.. Lol

You can do whatever you want
But just know Were all accountable For our actions...

And If you had a family
you would probably be "The man of the house"

If you was the boss at your job
Than the employees would basically Have to do what you say
Or they couldn't work there anymore

Well when it comes to us
GOD is running things
So wether you choose to follow HIM or not
Your own opinions won't change the fact
That 1 day YOU WILL HAVE 2 ANSWER TO HIM...

To make a long story short

I'd have to take you back to the beginning

All adam and eve had to do, was obey GOD
Everything was perfect between GOD and man...
But when they sinned Everything changed...

You see GOD can't be around sin
Its not in HIS NATURE

But once sin entered into the world
It contaminated Everyone of us
and We was all born into that condition

futhermore
sin is the barrier between man and GOD

it's what separated us from GOD in the 1st place
And if you want evidence of that
just look At your own life,
And the more you sin
The further it takes you away from GOD

You see GOD Loves us
The problem is we haven't showed love For GOD..

HE'S GOD -
HE Can't stoop down to our level
And HE shouldn't have to.....

Keep in mind hell wasn't designed for people,
but their's a real enemy out there
And he's trying to bring as many people To hell with him.




He can't beat GOD
But the only thing he can do
Is try to get as many of GOD's potential children
To turn away from him..

Its like a kid who's in trouble
With his parents,
the kid knows he 's already in trouble
so he throws a temper tantrum
And tries to get back at his parents

But right now
were in the middle of this war,
and if you don't turn ya life to CHRIST
Than your against HIM by default

And when its all said and done
There's only 2 places you could go

ETERNAL LIFE WITHOUT GOD
OR ETERNAL LIFE WITH GOD...

i don't know about you
but I CHOOSE LIFE

AND THAT'S ONLY AVAILABLE THROUGH
THE PERSON OF JESUS CHRIST !

And Remember the wages of sin is death
And GOD Loved us so much
That even though we turned Away from HIM
HE still sent HIS ONLY SON To die for us!!!

(AS AN ATONING SACRIFICE FOR OUR SIN)

But in order for that sacrifice to apply To your life,
you have to believe in THE SON
And through HIM
You can come to know GOD

CHRIST is THE ONLY Mediator
Between GOD and man...

For instance if o.j.
Simpson
Didn't have Johnny Cochran as his lawyer
We all know he would be in jail right now!!
Lol

Well just like that,
were all guilty Of sin...

But if you believe in CHRIST
And put your complete faith in HIM
Than HE already paid your punishment!!
And your covered by HIS blood...

And that's why you can't get to know GOD Without coming to CHRIST

And besides GOD is THE ONE
Who sent HIS SON to die for our sin's
So we can be saved

And after everything we've done
CHRIST still gives us the right
To become children of GOD

And That's why were considered "born again" When
