    The EVERLASTING PUNISHMENT had a specific time to begin it, that is this current time of Apocalypse, NEVER to END, but NEVER, it's for ever and ever.

    Hope that all of GOD's people be ready, for there shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be, and except these days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. As is written, GOD will finish the work(in this current time), and cut it short in Righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth, as prophesied Paul Apostle- Romans 9:28. Be careful and get ready

    29 And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha.

    Get ready, the Word is GOD, self-executing, understand?

    John 3:34-37KJV

    34 For he whom GOD hath sent speaketh the words of GOD: for GOD giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him.

    35 The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into His hand.

    36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the WRATH of GOD abideth on him. ---> (Terrible, very terrible, as Isaiah prophesied: "The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?- Isaiah 33:14

    The Word is GOD, self-executing, understand?

    JESUS left so clear, saying: All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Matthew 28:18

    So, in this current millennium, the seventh and last millennium, or seventh and last Day, the LORD's Day, all things in whole world are under JESUS's control, nothing random happens, understand?

    Matthew 25:31-34 and 41&46

    31 When the Son of man shall come in His glory, and all the holy angels(true believers- Luke 20:35-36.Take a look) with Him, then shall He sit upon the throne of His glory:

    32 And before Him shall be gathered all nations: and He shall separate them one from another(this will be literally be fulfilled from now on), as a shepherd divideth His sheep from the goats:

    33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.

    34 Then shall the King say unto them on His right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the KINGDOM prepared for you from the foundation of the world: ( Revelation 11:15-18. Take a look.)

    41 Then shall He say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the Devil and his angels(messengers):

    46 And these shall go away into EVERLASTING PUNISHMENT: but the righteous into life ETERNAL.

    The EVERLASTING PUNISHMENT was previously determined to start in this current time, precisely in this beginning of the seventh and last millennium, so it will NEVER END from now on, it's for EVER.

    When ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the DESOLATION thereof is nigh. Woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in these days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and WRATH upon the people. These are the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

    Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory- Luke 21:26-27.

    SALVATION CAN BE LOST

    John 15:2: "Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit."

    I heard so many people saying that salvation cannot be lost. I think there is a necessity to define what "lost" means. Does it mean losing the communion with the Lord on this earth? Or does it mean going to hell after death? In my argument, I have chosen the latter definition, losing salvation = going to hell after death. If one finishes up not making it to heaven, it means the person has lost his salvation because the goal of salvation is to live where Jesus is ( John 14:3)

    1. Who are the branches Jesus spoke about? The believers, here Jesus was not talking about non-believers (because they are not "branches").

    2. Two types of branches: Branches that abide in Jesus, and branches that do not abide in Him, meaning believers who abide in Jesus, and believers who do not. Those who abide bear good fruit, but those who do not abide bear no fruit.

    3. Note that there is a difference between accepting Jesus and abiding in Him. Some people accept Jesus but do not ABIDE in Him, meaning that they do not obey and completely surrender to Him in their journey.

    4. Those people (who believed at first, but did not abide in Him later) are the branches that do not abide in Jesus, and therefore, they will be cut off.

    Conclusion: It is a big mistake to believe that one cannot lose salvation once saved. Philippians 2:12-13 said, "Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you..." If salvation is "granted" once, why did the Apostle Paul say we should work with "fear" and "trembling"?

    I Corinthians 9:27: "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." Look at the last word of the verse. "CASTAWAY", meaning losing salvation.

    Brethren, Let's walk in holiness.

    Blessings,

    The real and ONLY failure to trust in God lies only in the false belief that we can usurp His power and separate ourselves from Him. Out of His love, he created us with the free will to choose to think we can do so. We have but the free will to wander off awhile and then return. Prodigal Son? Our Father's loving Voice will always call us back and guard our feet aright. It is He Who makes the ending sure and guarantees our safe returning home. I do not have the ability, thank God, or the power to make my Creator and Father fatherless, just as with my earthly parents, it is impossible to make them parentless. Yet, a delusional mind WILL believe in the impossible.

    It is impossible to have faith in sin, for sin is faithlessness; yet it is possible to have faith that mistakes can be corrected. It is impossible to place equal faith in opposite directions; what faith we give to sin, we take away from holiness; and what we offer holiness has been removed from sin. To believe in something is to put one's faith in it.

    In all my years in church and Sunday School, and Christian college, listening to Christian radio and television, etc., the majority of the output was focused on sin, and anger and wrath; very little on the holiness of God's Sons. Is it possible we have faith in sin and very little or NONE in the innocence of our brothers Whom God created?

    Behold the Son of God and look upon his purity and be still, in quiet look upon his holiness and offer thanks unto the Father that no guilt has ever touched him. Consider giving your bother or sister to the Holy Spirit as part of your self, and be certain he will be released; unless of course we decide to use him to imprison our self. In the name of freedom choose his release, because we will recognize we will be released together.

    We go together, You and I.

    Peace

    What does the Jeremiah 7:2 all about?
  • One eighty - 5 months ago
    pg. 2

    I've realized the danger to my own mind if I believe an appeal for help is something else, because I will then react to something else. My response will then be inappropriate to his call for help, due to my wrong perception of it, because my perception would be from the ego.

    When I am tempted to react with anger due to perceived injustices or attacks, I must instead respond with charity. Charity is a way of looking at another as if he had already gone far beyond his actual accomplishments in time. Healing rests on charity, and is a way of perceiving the perfection of another even if you cannot perceive it in yourself.

    TRUE forgiveness is the key., and if we believe sin is our brother's reality, we will never be capable of true forgiveness,. It IS impossible to forgive reality. The ego's plan of forgiveness is to have me see error clearly first, and then overlook it. Yet how can I overlook what I've accepted as real? By seeing it clearly, I have made it real and CANNOT overlook it.

    Forgiveness though the Holy Spirit lies simply in looking beyond error from the beginning, and thus keeping it unreal for me.

    Peace to all

    Blessings brothers and sisters,

    pg. 1

    The subject of anger or lack thereof can be interesting, yet sensitive, since we perceive so much injustice in these times. I've lived in anger much of my life, and realized a while back that I was sick of it because it was an enormous hindrance to my peace of mind. Although it can be a difficult and frustrating mission, and still is, I feel it has been worth the effort, as the anger has decreased

    Being open to correction, reluctantly at times, and with help from the Holy Spirit, I've learned that anger CANNOT occur unless I believe I've been attacked, and that my attack is justified in return, and that I am no way responsible for it. I AM! It is beginning to sink in that anger always involves projection of separation, which must ultimately be accepted as my own responsibility, RATHER THAN being blamed on others. Anger destroys peace, and relationships with others and God.

    I don't believe that anger is sin. I do believe that nothing except God exists, therefore since God is Love, love is all there is .Sin is a lack of Love, and in the sight of the Holy Spirit, anger is a MISTAKE to be gently and patiently corrected, rather than an evil to be punished, which is an attack in return.

    Therefore, there is but one interpretation of motivation that makes any sense. And because it is the Holy Spirit's judgement it should require no effort at all on my part: Every loving thought is true; EVERYTHING ELSE is an appeal for healing and help, regardless of the form it takes. Can I be justified in responding with anger to a brother's plea for help? No;no response can be appropriate except the willingness to give it to him, for this and only this is what he is asking for. And if I offer him anything else, I am assuming the right to attack HIS reality as he sees it, by interpreting it as the ego sees fit.

  • Jesse - 5 months ago
    The qualification of a true believer:

    Romans 8:9 reads, "But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.



    But you are not in the flesh, but you are in the Spirit, (if so be) the Spirit of God dwells in you.



    There is a definition that's given to us here. It says we are in the flesh if we don't have Christ. If we are not "born again" we have an illegitimate claim at being a true believer.

    It goes on to say, "But if so be that the Spirit of God dwells in you."

    And then listen to this:

    Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ (born again), he is none of his.



    What Paul is saying here is that if a person does not have the Spirit of Christ dwelling inside of them, they don't belong to Christ.



    So what's the emphasis here? The emphasis is on what God does and how He comes into our life. If He's not there, it doesn't matter what we believe because we are not saved.

    A person must be born again or they do not belong to Christ!

    Only Trust Him

    By: Robert A. Searles

    "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths." Proverbs 3: 5, 6.

    What does it mean to trust in the Lord? Trust is the word frequently used in the old testament to mean the same as faith in the new testament, for example: to trust is to have faith, and if we have faith, we trust. It means to take refuge; to lean on; to follow; to wait . To trust in the Lord is to put full confidence in the word of God for our salvation, and for our strength as Christians, and for our daily needs. We are told not to lean on our own understanding. In other words, we are not to try to rationalize or figure out God's amazing grace, or his power, or the working of miracles, or his work of redemption in our lives; but we are simply to trust in what his word tells us. God honors those who have confidence in his word How can we trust in something with which we are not familiar? How can we claim promises if we do not know what those promises are? This is why it is so important for us to spend so much time in God's word, and in our private meditation, so that we can know what God's word has to say, then we can put our trust in it.

    "Trust and do good" Psalm 37: 3-5, In other words, when God has spoken through his written word or through the Holy Spirit in our lives, again, we ought not to try to figure out what is going on in our heart or to rationalize away the working of the Holy Spirit. Instead, we ought to trust God and do good. God's word tells us the things that are good and right. We ought to obey God immediately, with the right heart attitude, when God speaks , and trust God for the results. As we read and study the word of God, and as God reveals himself to us and we see his glory unfolded before our eyes, we ought to delight ourselves in him. He ought to be our prime source of joy

    1 Samuel 30:8

    And David enquired at the LORD, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he answered him, Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover all.

    James 2:5

    Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him?

    Matthew 11:5

    The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them.

    Luke 4:18

    The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,

    GiGi, 2/2

    So does God look like humans or not?

    OK, God is spirit, but don't spirits have a form, a specific appearance of their own? Yes spirits can take any form they like, but again don't they have an image, a form of their own? Spirits are a fluid thing? Clouds or something like that? I don't really think so.

    My belief is that He does look like people, or better we were made to look like Him. God gave something of His own when He created Adam, something that is a part of His Spirit, when He breathed into Adam's nostrils. So man was created in His image. Spiritually yes, but not physically? Of course physically as well. Why not? Why only spiritually but not physicaly? There isn't any reason for not making us similar to Him. To be honest I can not imagine something without a form, like a "mountain" or a "cloud" sitting on a throne. A cloud surrounded by other clouds, the angels. Something that looks like those weird looks of aliens in science fiction movies. I want to believe that in Heaven we will look at His beautiful eyes, His beautiful face(the most beautiful face in the universe), hearing His beautiful voice, feeling the touch of His beautiful hands, walking side by side with Him. God honored us by making us in his image, both in the outside and the inside. This is how I believe it is.

    The Prayer of an Aged Man

    By: Robert A. Searles

    "In thee,O Lord do I put my trust: Let me never be put to confusion.

    Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape; incline thine ear unto me, and save me

    Be thou my strong habitation; where unto I may continually resort:

    thou hast given commandment to save me: for thou art my rock and my fortress.

    Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man . For thou art my hope, O Lord God: thou art my trust from my youth

    By thee have I been holden up from the womb; thou art he that took me out of my mother's bowels: my praise shall be continually of thee.

    I am as a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge

    Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honor all the day.Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth. For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul take counsel together.

    O God, be not far from me; O my God, make haste for my help. My mouth shall show forth thy righteousness and thy salvation all the day, for I know not the number thereof.

    I will go in the strength of the Lord God: I will make mention of thy righteousness even of thine only. Now also when I am old and gray headed, O God forsake me not until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation; and thy power to every one that is to come.

    Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee! Thou which hast shewed me great and sore troubles, shalt quicken me again, and shalt bring me up again from the depths of the

    earth." Psalm 71

    Pressing Forward

    By: Robert A. Searles

    This is the first day of the rest of our lives. Having come before our Lord this morning in prayer, and according to his faithfulness to cleanse and forgive; having received forgiveness and cleansing; let us begin at the place where we are at this moment, forgetting those things which are behind and reach forward to those things which are before us.

    We can do nothing about what has passed except to ask God to forgive us for our sins and short coming, but by God's grace and enabling power, we can if we will, take that which we have now and "Press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus." Philippians 3: 14.

    What is the prize of the high calling of God? The prize of the high calling of God is: "That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; if by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead." Philippians 3 10.

    The prize of the high calling of God is our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ: "Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able to subdue all things unto himself." Philippians 3:-21.

    Why do most Christians NOT keep YAHWEH laws and statues or his holy days? Are we following the word of man? Or what scripture says? It seems as though the first. Why do we put a tree up with garland and bulbs? In celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. Scriptures says not to do this. What does chocolate bunnies and colored eggs have to do with the resurrection of Christ? I do not believe Christ was born in December MAYBE conceived yes but not born. Too many things point to this not to be the time of his birth, though we do not know when he was born I'm confident it was not in December in the middle of winter. Why do we go to church on Sundays? Who says Sunday is the Sabbath? A man made calendar?! Those days were not named nor was the months. We are not to name the days. So are we following the word of man or what scriptures says? When you read scripture do you understand something different at times then what you are told it says? And feel kinda lost or unsure about the meaning or just doesn't make sense but you believe it because this is what your told it means?! Again, why do Christians celebrate man made holidays but not YAHWEH'S ?
  • Kush on Proverbs 6:16 - 5 months ago
    Note that 6:34-35 is referring to "a man" which would be too presumptions to indicate that it is referring to a jealous husband of a harlot!?, wherein many commentaries seem to suggest. For, why would such a jealous (good) husband be so enraged over a harlot, supposedly his wife!?. Nay. However, in view of the subject mater proceeding these two verses and, as it were comparing scripture with scripture, it seems much more likely that 6:34-35 is pointing to "a man" that (evil) prince that shall come in Daniel 9:26-27.

    Pray For Revival!

    By: Robert A. Searles

    "Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors, lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever, Amen."

    My Father, I pray that you will rekindle and ignite the fire of revival in my heart. I pray that you will cleanse me from all my iniquity. Create in me O God, a clean heart and a pure mind, and renew a right spirit within me. I pray that you will create a new hunger and thirst for your word, and that I will desire more of your fellowship. I pray that I will have a greater love and concern for all the brethren and children of God. Restore to me, O Lord the joys of my salvation, and grant me a greater zeal for soul winning. Let me be all that you have meant for me to be and let me approve all things which are excellent which will bring honor and glory to your name. Teach me, O Lord to pray continually and without ceasing. Teach me to walk constantly with the blessed Holy Spirit, and open a door of utterance for me that I might make manifest your word as I ought to speak. Help me to walk in wisdom toward those that are without, redeeming the time. Let my speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that I may know how I might answer every man.

    This must be the sincere prayer of all of us if we are to preserve our homes and our country. My friend, will this be your prayer?

    Hi,

    There was a question posted few weeks, regarding The Gift of The Holy Spirit.

    Part 1

    -I believe Jesus Christ is the son of the Living God and He died on the Cross for my sins, and He was buried and rose on the third Day and He is sited at the right hand of the father, and He is our high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.

    -Brethren bear this in mind that God is the same and He does not change.

    As it is written Malachi 3:6, kjv

    For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.

    -As God spoke by the prophets in time past in these days, these last hours ( John 1:18) He speaks to us by His beloved son in whom we have been qualified to be saints in the inheritance in the light by His blood at the cross By repentance. ( Colossians 1:12-14,KJV)

    -And if you have repented at the cross and received salvation which is by grace and faith alone none of any of our works then we receive gifts according to His will which He gives for the edifying of the ministry (body of Christ For He is the Head of the Church Colossians 1:18, KJV.)

    As it written in Ephesians 4:7-8, KJV

    7.But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

    -And in time past ( Hebrews 1:1, KJV) They the prophets healed the sick, raised the dead and provided provisions and all according to the will of God and not mans will.

    -Therefore, we serve the same Living God who has been in the beginning and Does not Change and Was manifest unto us as a child, but He was there from the begging as a Son given unto us as a Son Mighty God, everlasting Father. (Isiah 6:9 KJV)

    As it is written in 1 timothy 3:16, KJV.

    And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

    Part 2 next.

    ( Mt 26:64) .. "Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven".

    Jesus said He will be ((coming in the clouds)) in context!

    ( Rev 1:7) "Behold, he ((cometh with clouds)); and every eye shall see him"...

    He cometh with clouds in context!

    ( 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17) v15 "the coming of the Lord".

    v16 "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout"...

    v17 "Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them ((in the clouds)), to meet the Lord in the air"...

    We meet the Lord in the clouds in context!

    ( Mt 24:29-31) v29 "Immediately after the tribulation"...

    v30 ".."and they shall see the Son of man ((coming in the clouds)) of heaven with power and great glory".

    v31 "And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds"...

    The Lord ((coming in the clouds)) in context, Is Immediately after the tribulation!

    The return of Jesus riding a white horse in ( Rev 19:11-16) says nothing about coming in the clouds. But v11 does say "he doth judge and make war". So this return is coming (to the earth) not in the clouds. v15 "And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should (smite the nations): and he shall (rule them with a rod of iron): and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God". This is not the return in the clouds in context.

    This should be clear to all who seek the Truth, the return on the white horse ( Rev 19:11-16) and the return ((in the clouds)) in ( Mt 24:29-31) are not even close to being the same event!

    My question is it literal or figurative?

    Is says earth, most cases referring to the ground we walk on. Did God divide the earth as in the continents or placed them in land already separated (continents) as they are today? Like the world, 5 Hebrew translations, 3 Greek. Earth though all refer to the ground, dirt, soil in all three translations.

    1 Chronicles 1:19 - And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg; because in his days the earth was divided: and his brother's name was Joktan.

    Genesis 10:25

    "And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name was Joktan."

    Genesis 10:32 - These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and by these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.

    Genesis 11:16-19 - And Eber lived four and thirty years, and begat Peleg:And Eber lived after he begat Peleg four hundred and thirty years, and begat sons and daughters.And Peleg lived thirty years, and begat Reu:And Peleg lived after he begat Reu two hundred and nine years, and begat sons and daughters.

    Deuteronomy 32:8 - When the most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.

    Luke 3:35-36 - Which was the son of Saruch, which was the son of Ragau, which was the son of Phalec, which was the son of Heber, which was the son of Sala,Which was the son of Cainan, which was the son of Arphaxad, which was the son of Sem, which was the son of Noe, which was the son of Lamech,

    Acts 17:26 - And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;
