To Began A New Life

We, as true Christians know that God's WORD will be fulfilled to the letter, and no man will change His ultimate plan for man and his destiny.

We are about to close the books on this year in which has seen many heartaches in not only our lives but in our nation as well. The heartaches of seeing a government collapsing from within and all around, government leaders that put more value in the riches of this world then in their own integrity. Leaders who would lie, cheat and steal for their own welfare then to be concerned for the welfare of the people they were elected to serve.

Sadly, the vast majority of men will search for the truth all their lives and when they do hear the truth they quickly deny the truth as being nothing but lies; therefore when they do hear lies they accept them as being the truth...

I have very little doubts in my mind that there will be many more heartaches this coming year than all my previous 67 years combined for God has shown me many things and that our days are numbered. Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets (Amos 3:7).

God has given man the gift of eternal life through the precious Blood of the Lamb, His Son, Yeshua, our LORD, Savior and Redeemer and the knowledge of this truth is not hidden, it is revealed unto us in His WORD through the Holy Spirit that all should know the truth, to be set free from their sins, to began a new life..

The following was copied from the Bible Pathway Ministries Daily Devotional Guide which can guide one through the entire Bible in one years time with only 15 minutes of reading per-day.

Read Revelation 14-16

And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads (Revelation 14;1). And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb (Revelation 14:9-10).

As this world draws to a close, mankind will be stripped of all pretenses. No longer will there be a "middle ground;" the time for conversation and debate will be over. We will all bear the mark of our chosen master, and we will all reap the rewards of the path that we have followed. Blessed will be those that have their Father's name written in their foreheads, while cursed indeed will be all that have chosen to bear the mark of the beast. The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of His indignation and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb.

The subject of the torments of hell is shunned in many of today's churches. Christian culture pushes the image of benevolent, genteel, grandfatherly God - a God who loves and accepts everyone for who they are, without question, condemnation, or judgment. The God that is shared from man pulpits each week is often portrayed as turning a blind eye to sin, as long as the sinner's "heart is in the right place." The problem with this philosophy is as simple as it is horrifying; even as we claim to speak in the Name of Jesus, our words and actions are pushing people deeper into the clutches of Satan by allowing them to think that they can live in any manner that they choose as long as they "claim" the protection of Christ.

Giving one's life to Christ is a conscious choice that requires a sincere personal commitment. It is IMPOSSIBLE to be a servant of Christ and a slave to the world at the same time. No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon (Matthew 6:24). If we claim to know God, yet our first loyalty still lies to ourselves and our earthly needs and wants, then we are lying to ourselves, Jesus said: He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal (John 12:25). If we decide to protect and defend our earthly way of life above all else, then we are choosing to take on the mark of the beast. If this is the path that we take, then we need to fully understand what will be waiting for us at the end of it.

He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death (Revelation 21:7-8).

Thought for Today: Modern philosophy popularizes the notion that there are many different paths a person can walk through life. In reality there are only two - the one to Heaven and the one to Hell.

Eternal Gift

May the beauty and joy of this Christmas bring praise and joy to your heart and the hearts of your loved ones and God's Peace to your homes. Just a little over 2,000 years ago God gave His greatest gift unto all the world... From His Heavenly Throne to a humble manger in the East; And then back to His Heavenly Throne. God the Son, Christ Jesus to forever and ever reign over all His creation...
Though unworthy of His Loving embrace, He has poured out His Mercy and Grace that we may be forgiven of our sins and live forever in His presence.
Hallelujah Christmas

Standing Firm On The Gospel













Through the Bible in one year in 15 minutes a day, from Bible Pathway Ministries
December 22, 2015 Read II John, III John, Jude

Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.
For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ
(Jude 1:3-4).

The Book of Jude is comprised of only one, 27 verse chapter, yet its message is vital to the well-being of every Christian in the world today. Jude addresses the thorny issue of the false teachers that are infiltrating the church, contradicting the WORD of God and working to draw Christians away from the truth before our LORD's return. It should be the desire of every child of God to faithfully follow Jude's exhortation to earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. We must always be ready to defend by whatever means necessary, the true and unaltered message of salvation through Jesus Christ our LORD.

To earnestly contend for the faith implies not only the belief that All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:(II Tim. 3:16), but also the understanding that Scripture alone is the final WORD on all doctrine of the church. We must stand firm against those that seek to dilute or add to the WORD of God. Anyone that stands before you and states that, in order to be saved, you must do either more or less than the Bible requires is a liar and must be rebuked.

Balaam (Num. 34:16) and Core (Korah) (Num. 16) are mentioned as examples of leaders who perished because they rejected God's revealed truth to promote their own interests (Jude 1:11). In today's church there is a subtle and deceptive push by certain fringe groups towards joining hands with religions that reject Jesus of Nazareth as the Only LORD God, and our LORD Jesus Christ. As true believers, we must realize that God calls us to minister to others with godly love in an attempt to share the true message of Christ; however, He warns us not to allow ourselves to be corrupted by those to who we are ministering. And of some have compassion, making a difference: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh (Jude 1:22-23).

The most insidious of all false teachers will not deny God directly; they will pay lip service to His will, while at the same time introducing their own. Jude warns that such deceivers will be judged in the same manner as God has judged all who have stood against Him. And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day (Jude 1:6). They may have familiarized themselves with God's written WORD to some degree, but they have not received the Living WORD, the Son of God into their hearts. We must recognize them for what they are and prepare ourselves to stand against them, united in our faith and our love for our LORD and SAVIOR Jesus Christ.

Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand (Eph. 6:13).

Thought for Today: To express godly love requires selflessness without motivation; as this is contrary to our sinful nature, we must rely on God in order to achieve it.

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Matthew 28:19-20

The Great Commission, that Jesus entrusted to the New Testament church, has continually been passed down through the ages until today where it reaches us. This commission is needed to be carried more today than ever. The commission to carry the Word of God to every corner of the world. The commission to have every person on this planet to learn of Jesus Christ and His great gift to mankind. Human souls are hungry for God's Word and many do not even know what they desire. They stand in the valley of decision. How are they to find the truth?

Bible Pathway Ministries International has one true purpose. This is to feed that hunger for God's Word. The mission God has given us is get the Word of God into the hands of every human possible and so they might be able to read and understand it. This is necessary because it is in God's Word we find the answers to life's questions. All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works. II Timothy 3:16-17.

"This means that God, through His Word, provides everything necessary for us to be fully prepared to be the person God wants us to be in order to accomplish the purpose for which He created us. I believe that the whole future course, character, and testimony of the Body of Christ depends - not partly - but entirely on the Spirit of God writing deeply in our hearts the importance of living all of the Scriptures. No one can live something they don't know."
- John A. Hash, Founder & Executive Director of Bible Pathway Ministries.

History Repeats Its Self

This is a film that everyone should have to see, however I certainly do not recommend it to the weak of heart.... Please understand, I do not post this to cause hatred and/or revenge for these atrocities but to educate those that will listen....

The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? Jeremiah 17:9 (KJV) History has proven that all government given the time will progress to become tyrannical just as Germany had in the 1930s and 40s... First they did universal healthcare, they reeducated the children, they confiscated the weapons and they relocated many of the citizens to camps.... Does most of this sound familiar?

Let us learn from this film that we may not become slaves to this government or any other government. I pray Father God, Help me to remember those words spoken by Patrick Henry in 1775 at St John's Church in Richmond, Virginia to the Virginia Convention, "Give me liberty, or give me death!" Patrick Henry words were said to be credited for having convinced the delegates to pass a resolution delivering Virginian troops for the Revolutionary War..... Thomas Jefferson and George Washington were also present in this convention.

Wisdom For Today


God said: "And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness:

We are told in Genesis, So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created He him; male and female created He them. We are also told in Revelation Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created. Revelation 4:11

God knows absolutely everything there is to be known about us, even our deepest thoughts and desires. He knows when we rise in the mornings and when we lie down at night. He knows what makes us happy and what makes us sad... Thus God knows our hearts better than we know ourselves.

Not that we would be mere robots doing that which was required of us, God in His great mercy gave man the gift of freewill. Doing that which is right as led by God's Holy WORD most always brought order, blessings and structure to our lives, however doing that which is wrong most always brought about consequences into our lives resulting in heart aches or troubles to numerous to mention here.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: 1 Peter 1:3-7
God's WORD tells us, The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? Jeremiah 17:9. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Romans 1:28. If we should embrace this wickedness than He will allow us to fail just as He allowed the Israelites to fail to reach their full potential in life, but seeking God's will can bring blessings into every area of our lives.

Understanding the truth of God's WORD and the power behind knowing His WORD is truly the secret to all of man life and our relationship with God.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Ephesians 6:12

God is all knowing and all powerful; He spoke the very existence of the universe into being and then set it in motion; how can we as mere men ever grasp this understanding without faith? For those that wish to maintain their rebellion to the truth of God's WORD of being the only real absolute truth, I added a link for you to investigate for the truth on your own. Science vs. The Bible

Never in all of my years have there been more of a reason for me to believing in God's WORD and the coming rapture of His Church.

The following was a Bible Lesson taken from Bible Pathway Ministries which I copied that I thought should be shared. Knowing the importance of reading God's WORD in 1973 Dr John A Hash began the Bible Pathway Ministries for aiding and guiding a person to read through the Bible in one year with only 15 minutes of reading each day.

Solomon, the son of David, king of Israel was said to be the wise man to ever have lived; And he understood the importance of seeking God in his life as we are shown in the Book of Proverbs.




September 21

And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the Lord your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed. And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit (Joel 2:27-29 KJV).

In the time of Joel. feeling the presence of the Spirit of the LORD was a rare ad precious gift that was experienced only by a handful of God's chosen people - primarily His prophets, judges, and spiritually devout kings. The average Israelite could find the Lords; will through His WORD and His Law, which had been passed down generation after generation, but the could not "feel" the presence of the LORD themselves. They were still separated from Him by a veil of sin. Through His Prophet Joel. the LORD foretold of a future time when the Spirit of the LORD would be able to come freely to all who would receive Him. The Prophet Ezekiel also made a similar statement: Then shall they know that I am the Lord their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there. Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord God (Ezekiel 39:28-29 KJV). Each of these men were making reference to a time when man would have the opportunity, through Christ's work on the Cross, to have their sins washed away. Only then, in purity and light, would they be able to receive the Spirit of God.

Centuries later, on the day of Pentecost, Joel's prophecy came to fruition. Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call (
Acts 2:38-39).
As the power of the Holy Spirit filled the room, Peter began to urge those listening to renounce their sinful nature and accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
We are all born into this world under the shadow of sin. The Adamic (Basic human) nature has brought about all the corruption that is in the world, however, through the work of Christ on the Cross, we have been given the ability to exchange that nature for the Spirit of Truth (1 John 4:6; John 14:16-17), The contrast between life in Adam (Before we were saved) and life in Christ (From the moment we accepted Him as our Savior) is the difference between being children of darkness and children of light (Eph. 5:8).
Spiritual re-birth, however, is only the beginning of our Christian life; afterwards, we must allow ourselves to be led by the Spirit of God. We should determine to let the indwelling Spirit take full control of our lives. Together with the written WORD of God, the Holy Spirit empowers the believer to be able to do the will of God.
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life (John 6:63).

Thought for Today: Christians need not wander aimlessly through the darkness; God is lighting the way.

God's Holy WORD

Here is my Bible lesson today from Bible Pathway Ministries which I found to be inspiring and I just wanted to share this with others who loves God's WORD.

**********************
Bible Pathway Devotionals

Through the Bible in one year in 15 minutes a day, from Bible Pathway Ministries

Read Psalms 31 – 35

Let me not be ashamed, O LORD; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave (Ps. 31:17).

Those who belong to Christ have no reason to be ashamed. There is nothing greater that can happen to an individual than to have the redemptive power of Jesus Christ touch their life. Nothing could be better or more positive than knowing you have been saved by the grace of the Son of God. There is no better feeling than knowing your eternal home has been bought and paid for by the blood of the Lamb. Praise God! How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? (Heb. 9:14).

That may all sound a bit like preaching. As believers in Christ, we should find it hard not to want to tell it to the entire world. We are truly the most blessed people in the world. Why shouldn't we say that?

What condition does today's verse set for not being ashamed? Those who have called on the name of the Lord. That includes all of us who have had our sins erased by the forgiveness of Jesus. And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful Witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the Prince of the kings of the earth. Unto Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood (Rev. 1:5).

The wondrous miracle of having our sins forgiven can only come from God. There is no other way to have our past mistakes erased. With Jesus, we get a fresh start and a new life. As far as the east is from the west, so far hath He removed our transgressions from us (Ps. 103:12). Therefore we are buried with Him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life (Rom. 6:4).

Today's verse also clearly tells who should be ashamed. The psalmist records that the wicked should be ashamed. The wicked rely on their own devices to get themselves through life. Although at times their plans may seem to work, it is only temporary. The day is going to come when the frailty of relying on anything but God will be exposed for what it is. That it is a flawed plan that can only take them to death, the grave and finally to hell. In hell they will wish they had trusted God. He could have carried them into eternity.

That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord (Rom. 5:21).

Thought for Today:

Can you say with David, I will bless the Lord at all times, His praise shall continually be in my mouth (Ps 34:1).

A Lesson for America

If ever there was a Bible lesson that all of America should have to set through, this is it..
**********************
 
Bible Pathway Devotionals (Through the Bible in one year in 15 minutes a day, from Bible Pathway Ministries)

April 19
Read 2 Samuel 21-21

Then there was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David enquired of the Lord. And the Lord answered, It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he slew the Gibeonites (2 Samuel 21:1).

Chapter 21 of today's reading can at times be hard for modern readers to understand. A quick read through can leave us with the impression that God was holding the children and grandchildren of Saul responsible for Saul's sins, something that God's WORD clearly states that He will never do.
The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him (Ezekiel 18:20). However, if we take the time to carefully and prayerfully study the text, we will discern a totally different explanation for the events.
To begin with, God's punishment in this passage - the only one He hands down - is the famine that lasts three years. When David inquired of the LORD as to what sins had been committed to bring about the famine, the Lord answered, It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he slew the Gibeonites. Although the actions had been carried out by Saul and his sons, the entire nation of Israel was affected because the entire nation had shared in the guilt of the broken treaty that Joshua and the tribe leaders had made with the Gibeonites. And Joshua made peace with them, and made a league with them, to let them live: and the princes of the congregation sware unto them (Joshua 9:15).
What happens next was done at the hands of man, not by the express command of God. David sought to repair the treaty with the remaining Gibeonites, so that the oath that had been sworn before the LORD could be restored. The Gibeonites refused to accept traditional payments, and they also refused to allow innocent blood to be spilled. What they demanded of David to restore the treaty was seven men from the bloodline of Saul. David acquiesced to their demands, sending two of Saul's sons (born of one of Saul's concubines) and five of his grandson's (the children of Saul's daughter, Mereb and her husband Adriel, but raised by David's wife Michal) We do not know why David chose these seven. Saul had always gone to battle with his sons, so there is a very good chance that, as young men, they may have ridden with Saul when he fought with the Gibeonites. Regardless, David knew that the Gibeonites had to be satisfied so that the treaty could be restored. Only then would he be able to pray to the LORD for the famine to be lifted.

If we needed to shrink down the lesson in this chapter to one sentence, it would be this: Sin always has consequences. Saul had broken a treaty sworn in God's name and had lived out his life believing that he had gotten away with it; yet, in the end, his family suffered terribly from his actions.
When we sin and make no attempt to repent and make reparations for our actions, then we have set into motion a series of events that will inevitably hurt other people. The repercussions they will suffer will be because of the earthly consequences of our actions; our guilt before God is a separate matter entirely.
Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law (1 John 3:4).

Thought for Today: Think before you act, the consequences of sin are far-reaching.

Gospel of John - THE LIFE OF JESUS - full movie


7am Apr. 3, 1994, twenty one years ago today the Holy Spirit whispered in my left ear to lead me to the book "Through the Fire Without Burning," which was authored by Pastor Dumitru Duduman whom God had given the visions of a nuclear attack on America. I ran from His message for two years and nine months not wanting to believe that God would allow this to happen to America. I started praying, Father God, if this is a true prophecy than You must give me the confirmations to confirm this... Within just a few short months I received the two confirmations through a student driver named Dale Ferrari who had an out of body experience of the rapture..
April 2000 I started attending LaGrange Christian Assembly in LaGrange, IL where I learned of a pastor having been there during the 80's who had also been given visions of a nuclear attack on America. This pastor also told me of the visions God had given to Pastor David Wilkerson. I immediately began praying, Father God if these are true warnings for America than You must give me the confirmations to confirm this... Once again the two confirmations were given several months later.. God has never allowed the destruction of a nation or people before first sending His warnings hoping that the hearts of the people might turn to Him and be saved. RFC Newsletter #101
