HOMEPAGE

1. One of the most intriguing PARABLES in the Bible likens the “KINGDOM OF HEAVEN”, “… UNTO TO TEN VIRGINS, which took their LAMPS, and went forth to meet the BRIDEGROOM. And FIVE OF THEM WERE WISE, and FIVE WERE FOOOLISH” [Matthew 25:1-2] TEN VIRGINS started out with LAMPS, hoping to go in with the BRIDEGROOM, but “While the BRIDEGROOM TARRIED, they ALL SLUMBERED and SLEPT” [Matthew 25:5] Brethren, we are VIRGINS, betrothed to Christ, if so be we are BORN AGAIN, and the BRIDEGROOM is Jesus Christ. Over the years, many SLEPT in the Lord, waiting for His appearance, and we who are alive are as SLUMBERING VIRGINS, but “… at MIDNIGHT there was A CRY MADE, Behold, the BRIDEGROOM COMETH go ye out to meet him” [Matthew 25:6] At His appearance, the WISE shall AWAKE TO UNDERSTANDING and GLORY but the FOOLISH to CONFUSION and SHAME, let us therefore, be WISE,  “WISDOM is the principal thing; therefore GET WISDOM: and with all thy getting GET UNDERSTANDING” [Proverbs 4:7]

2. We are VIRGINS by FAITH in the WORD of God, for “… FAITH COMETH BY HEARING, and hearing by the WORD OF GOD” [Romans 10:17] Though we are VIRGINS, yet are we neither WISE nor ready to meet the BRIDEGROOM until we are ESTABLISHED in godly INTERPRETATION of “… HOLY SCRIPTURES, which are able TO MAKE THEE WISE UNTO SALVATION THROUGH FAITH which is in Christ Jesus” [2 Timothy3:15] Beloved, reading and listening to the WORD of God is not enough to make you WISE, you must be FED and LED by INTERPRETATION of the Bible in PRESENT TRUTH. Choose carefully, therefore, who you listen to and what you read, “… for SATAN HIMSELF IS TRANSFORMED INTO AN ANGEL OF LIGHT. Therefore it is no great thing if HIS MINISTERS ALSO BE TRANSFORMED AS THE MINISTERS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS;…” [2 Corinthians 11:14-15] Let no man be deceived, the KEY to INTERPRETNG the Bible is SALVATION anchored on Christ “In hope of ETERNAL LIFE, which God, that cannot lie, PROMISED BEFORE THE WORLD BEGAN” [Titus 1:2] If you will be grounded in sound INTERPRETATION of TRUTH, avoid those who INTERPRETE the WORD of God through the prism of GREED, for “… through COVETOUSNESS shall they WITH FEIGNED WORDS MAKE MERCHANDISE OF YOU… ” [2 Peter 2:3]  Go through the Scriptures, Jesus did not die to make you a millionaire and the Bible is not a business manual, but “All SCRIPTURE is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for DOCTRINE, for REPROOF, for CORRECTION and INSTRUCTION IN RIGHTEOUSNESS …” [2 Timothy3:16-17]

3. All TEN VIRGINS had LAMPS, signifying godly INTERPRETATION, but only FIVE had OIL when it mattered most. The OIL is your BODY which God requires to be presented, “… a LIVING SACRIFICE, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And BE NOT CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD: but be ye TRANSFORMED BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God” [Romans 12:1-2] Our WILLINGNESS to do His WILL in total SUBMISSION to His PURPOSE for our lives is the OIL that burns to ILLIMINATE the SOUL. You see,   UNDERSTANDING is not a GIFT, it is the YOKE of FELLOWSHIP in total AGREEMENT with Christ, as it is written: “That I MAY KNOW HIM, and the power of his RESURRECTION, and the fellowship of his SUFFERINGS, being made COMFORMABLE TO HIS DEATH” [Philippians 3:10] Proof of UNDERSTANDING is CONFORMITY with the MIND of Christ, in POWER and in SUFFERINGS, “The eyes of YOUR UNDERSTANDING BEING ENLIGHTENED; that ye may know what is the HOPE OF HIS CALLING, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints” [ Ephesians 1:18] When we turn away from selfish AMBITIONS and vain promises of men of perverse mind, the Lord adds FLAME to the OIL, “For thou wilt LIGHT MY CANDLE the LORD my God will ENLIGHTEN MY DARKNESS” [Psalms 18:28] Let us TRIM our LAMPS and be  filled with UNDERSTANDING, the BRIDEGROOM cometh.

4. WISDOM is the crowning glory of UNDERSTANDING, “And they that be WISE SHALL SHINE as the brightness of the firmament; and they that TURN MANY TO RIGHTEOUSNESS as the stars for ever and ever” [Daniel 12:3] It’s close to 2,000 years since Jesus ascended to heaven and all VIRGINS slumber, “While the BRIDEGROOM TARRIED, they ALL SLUMBERED and SLEPT” [Matthew 25:5] Though they all SLUMBERED, the WISE knew what to do as soon as the MIDNIGHT CRY was heard. The FOOLISH also awoke but to CONFUSION, bereft of UNDERSTANDING, chasing shadows, “And while they WENT TO BUY, the bridegroom came; and THEY THAT WERE READY WENT IN with him to the marriage: and the DOOR WAS SHUT” [Matthew 25:10] This is the MIDNIGHT CRY, AWAKE TO UNDERSTANDING, silence all DISTRACTIONS and be renewed in UNDERSTANDING of the SEASON, as one having “… UNDERSTANDING of the TIMES, TO KNOW WHAT ISREAL OUGHT TO DO…” [1 Chronicles 12:32] Now, more than ever before, let us TRIM all excesses of the FLESH,  separating what is EXPEDIENT from what LAWFUL and put away“… every WEIGHT, and the SIN which doth so easily beset us, and let us RUN WITH PATIENCE the race that is set before us” [Hebrews 12:1] If we are AWAKE TO UNDERSTANDING, we do well to call those who SLUMBER to UNDERSTANDING, saying: “… AWAKE THOU THAT SLEEPEST, and arise from the dead, and CHRIST SHALL GIVE THEE LIGHT” [Ephesians 5:14]

5. Choose to be WISE, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour, amen 

  ….nothing is what it seems to be. You must not BELIEVE everything you SEE, HEAR or READ on TELEVISION, SOCIAL MEDIA and sundry INTERNET facilities, but “PROVE ALL THINGS, HOLD FAST THAT WHICH IS GOOD” [1Thessalonians 5:21]

1. WITCHCRAFT, as CRAFT suggest, is a TRADE operated by FAMILIAR SPIRITS; the merchandise are SOULS of men. This specie of disembodied spirits operate in LEGIONS, according to assignment, as it is written: “And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain DAMSEL POSSESSED WITH A SPIRIT OF DIVINATION met us, which BROUGHT HER MASTERS MUCH GAIN BY SOOTHSAYING” [Acts 16:16] In the case mentioned, a band of FAMILIAR SPIRITS BEWITCHED the people of Philippi with SOOTHSAYING, working through the DAMSEL and HER MASTERS. In the same manner, Simon “… BEWITCHED the people of SAMARIA, giving out that himself was some great one. To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, SAYING, THIS MAN IS THE GREAT POWER OF GOD.” [Acts 8:9-10] There was WITCHCRAFT in the Church at Galatia, as the Bible says: “O FOOLISH GALATIANS, WHO HATH BEWITCHED YOU, that ye should NOT OBEY THE TRUTH, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?” [Galatians 3:1] Listen carefully, there is WITCHCRAFT in the Church, carefully disguised as religion, but “… ye shall know the truth, and the TRUTH SHALL MAKE YOU FREE” [John 8:32]

2. Church is the EMBASSY of Christ on earth, “… built upon the FOUNDATION OF THE APOSTLES and PROPHETS, JESUS CHRIST himself being the CHIEF CORNER STONE” [Ephesians 2:20] The SEAL of Apostles is the MANDATE of Christ to reveal the CHIEF CORNERSTONE in every age and LAY the FOUNDATION of His Church. The FOUNDATION laid by Apostles is the REVELATION of the MYSTERY of the ROCK, and the ROCK is God manifest in Jesus Christ, as it is written: “… UPON THIS ROCK I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it” [Matthew 16:16-18] Apostles are raised in every generation by REVELATION, “For I NEITHER RECEIVED IT OF MAN, neither was I taught it, BUT BY THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST” [Galatians 1:12] They are commissioned and SENT to BUILD and SET the HOUSE of God in order [1 Corinthians 3:10] Every time someone not SENT usurps the Apostolic MANDATE, the hedge is broken and the Church comes under sustained assault of FAMILIAR SPIRITS, “And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but HE THAT IS CALLED OF GOD, as was Aaron” [Hebrews 5:4] The present order of GENERAL OVERSEERS who were neither CALLED nor SENT and the dictatorship of a professional cadre of priesthood is WITCHCRAFT; you see, we are all PRIESTS, Jesus “…. gave some, APOSTLES; and some, PROPHETS; and some, EVANGELISTS; and some, PASTORS and TEACHERS” [Ephesians 4:7-11] Do not allow anyone to BEWITCH you with LITURGY in place of REVELATION [Matthew 15:9]

3. It is your duty to dig deep into Scriptures and prove the FOUNDATION of your local parish or denomination, “… for SATAN himself is TRANSFORMED INTO AN ANGEL OF LIGHT. Therefore it is no great thing if HIS MINISTERS also be TRANSFORMED AS THE MINISTERS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS …” [2 Corinthians 11:14-15] There are “grievous WOLVES” in the fold masquerading as MINISTERS OF RIGHTOUSNESS, whose CRAFT is MANIPULATION. When they speak, they pollute the Church with FAMILIAR SPIRITS, driving their followers into frenzy of LUSTS and with “… great SWELLING WORDS OF VANITY, they ALLURE THROUGH THE LUSTS OF THE FLESH, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error” [2 Peter 2:18] Be not deceived, we are not SAVED to fulfil selfish ambitions and Jesus Christ never promised to make anyone a millionaire, “… this is the PROMISE that he hath promised us, even ETERNAL LIFE” [1 John 2:25] Those who escape the snare of FALSE PROSPERITY must deal with INTIMIDATION. I tell you, the preponderance of sickness, poverty and diverse afflictions among Christians is WITCHCRAFT, orchestrated by bands of FAMILIAR SPIRITS to draw men into snares of hell. Whatever you are going through, hold on to Christ and do not panic “… GOD IS FAITHFUL, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also MAKE A WAY TO ESCAPE, that ye may be able to bear it” [1 Corinthians 10:13]

4. Those who witnessed the PENTECOSTAL MOVE of the 1960s and 1970s are WEEPING but largely unheard because of the NOISE of those who SHOUT for JOY without VICTORY [Exodus 32:1-6] They grieve over a BEWITCHED generation, “Having a FORM OF GODLINESS, but DENYING THE POWER thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and LEAD CAPTIVE SILLY WOMEN laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, EVER LEARNING, NEVER ABLE TO COME TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF TRUTH” [2 Timothy 3:5-7] This generation is bursting at the seams with churches filled with men and women, but every man’s ETERNAL RELEVANCE shall be determined by the FOUNDATION of his FAITH, “Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY HIS FAITH” [Habakkuk 2:4] If any man’s FAITH is anchored outside the ROCK, which is Jesus Christ, he is BEWITCHED and whatsoever he may count as RIGHTEOUSNESS is vanity, “If the FOUNDATIONS be destroyed, WHAT CAN THE RIGHTEOUS DO?” [Psalms 11:3] Beloved, the day of reckoning is near, when every FOUNDATION shall be measured by the REVELATION of Jesus Christ and the Lord shall separate His SHEEP from GOATS. I charge you, therefore, in the name of the Lord to forsake the bedrock of WITCHCRAFT, “… COME OUT OF HER, MY PEOPLE, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues” [Revelation 18:4]

5. Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour, amen

LOOKING BACK begins with a reckless THOUGHT of LOSS incurred for the sake of Christ or an ambition dashed for standing in FAITH. If it is left unchecked, it grows into a tsunami,…..

VERSES I-3: The REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST, which God gave unto him, TO SHEW UNTO HIS SERVANTS things which must shortly come to pass; 2 Who bare RECORD OF THE WORD OF GOD, and of the TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST, and of all THINGS HE SAW. 3 Blessed is he that READETH, and they that HEAR the WORDS OF THIS PROPHECY, and KEEP those things which are written therein: for the TIME IS AT HAND.

VERSE 1: You and I are BOND-SERVANTS of Christ, after we accepted His offer of SALVATION, for “YE ARE BOUGHT WITH A PRICE; be not ye the servants of men” [1 Corinthians 7:22-23] We are bought with His BLOOD; no longer to live for ourselves but as “… good STEWARDS of the MANIFOLD GRACE of God” [1 Peter 4:10] Those who heard Him while He was in the FLESH, passed to us as much as they could take of His TEACHINGS and MYSTERIES of His Kingdom, but not all, as it is written: “I HAVE YET MANY THINGS TO SAY unto you, but YE CANNOT BEAR THEM NOW. Howbeit when he, the SPIRIT OF TRUTH, is come, HE WILL GUIDE YOU INTO ALL TRUTH: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come” [John 16:12-13] The SPIRIT OF TRUTH is the HOLY GHOST, which is Christ in us, fulfilling the promise in John 16:16 [Romans 8:9] If Peter and others struggled with the MESSAGE of Jesus Christ while He was here, imagine how difficult it would be to UNDERSTAND the CAPSTONE MESSAGE from the throne without the SPIRIT OF TRUTH, therefore, “… 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” [Acts 2:38]

VERSE 1b:This BOOK is the final disclosure of Christ to His SERVANTS and “… he sent and SIGNIFIED it BY HIS ANGEL unto HIS SERVANT JOHN” [Revelation 1:1] His ANGEL was in Egypt to bring Israel to the Promised Land, “For MINE ANGEL SHALL GO BEFORE THEE, and bring thee in unto the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites: and I will cut them off” [Exodus 23:23] His ANGEL was in the PILLAR OF CLOUD by day and in the FIRE by night to GUIDE Israel through the wilderness, and Israel “… did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that SPIRITUAL ROCK that followed them: and THAT ROCK WAS CHRIST” [1 Corinthians 10:4] The same ROCK is manifest in the midst of the seven golden CANDLESTICKS [Revelation 1:13] He abides with those who FEAR Him, to SIGNIFY the “THINGS WHICH MUST SHORTLY COME TO PASS” and GUIDE the BRIDE into His REST [Hebrews 4:9-11] The ANGEL of the Lord spoke to “… Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend…”, and shall do same with you, if you will turn to Christ with all your heart and TREMBLE at His WORD. He will SIGNIFY the MESSAGE of this BOOK to you by REVELATION, as no man can do, and the SPIRIT OF CHRIST in you will give you UNDERSTANDING, ”For I NEITHER RECEIVED IT OF MAN, NEITHER WAS I TAUGHT it, but BY REVELATION of Jesus Christ” [Galatians 1:12]

VERSE 2: In John, we have the profile of the faithful SERVANT to who the ANGEL of the Lord shall come and SIGNIFY the MYSTERIES of this BOOK. John TESTIFIED of the TRUTH, as it is written: “IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE WORD, and the Word was with God, and the WORD WAS GOD” [John 1:1] Down the line, in John 1:14, he settled the IDENTITY of God in Jesus Christ as the WORD made FLESH and bore witness of “THAT WHICH WAS FROM THE BEGINNING, which we have HEARD, which we have SEEN with our eyes, which we have LOOKED UPON, and our hands have HANDLED, of the Word of life” [1 John 1:1] It is not enough to HEAR the gospel, we must SEEK Him, not in the FLESH but in the SPIRIT, setting our EYES and AFFECTIONS on Him to be like Him, “… not walking in craftiness, nor HANDLING the WORD of God DECEITFULLY; but BY MANIFESTATION OF THE TRUTH COMMENDING OURSELVES TO EVERY MAN’S CONSCIENCE in the SIGHT of God” [2 Corinthians 4:2 & Hebrews 12:2] If we live in the TRUTH in the SIGHT of men and God, we are living TESTIMONIES of Jesus Christ; His ANGEL shall come and SIGNIFY to us the PROPHECIES of this BOOK, “… for the TESTIMONY of Jesus is the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY” [Revelation 19:10]

VERSE 3: The BOOK OF REVELATION is the hidden WISDOM of God and our PATHFINDER in the last chapters of TIME. It is a BOOK of PROPHECIES and must be READ with UNDERSTANDING to WALK and WORK in the LIGHT of TRUTH, “… for the NIGHT COMETH, when NO MAN CAN WORK” [John 9:4] We have a duty to READ and PREACH the PROPHECIES in the BOOK OF REVELATION to the HEARING of all men. We are as John, sent as WATCHMEN to WARN the SINNER and PREPARE the SAINT, “But if the WATCHMAN SEE THE SWORD COME, and BLOW NOT THE TRUMPET, and the PEOPLE ARE NOT WARNED; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but HIS BLOOD WILL I REQUIRE AT THE WATCHMAN’S HAND” [Ezekiel 33:6] I charge both READER and HEARER to KEEP the PROPHECIES of this BOOK with WATCHING and PRAYER, for the “TIME IS AT HAND” when we shall be “BLESSED”, as it is written: “And, behold, I COME QUICKLY; and MY REWARD IS WITH ME, TO GIVE EVERY MAN ACCORDING AS HIS WORK shall be” [Revelation 22:12]

1. Difficulties encountered in understanding the BOOK OF REVELATION are rooted in the IDENTITY of God, who “GAVE” the message to Jesus Christ “TO SHEW UNTO HIS SERVANTS”, as it is written: “The REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST, which GOD GAVE unto him, TO SHEW UNTO HIS SERVANTS things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and SIGNIFIED IT BY HIS ANGEL UNTO HIS SERVANT JOHN” [Revelation 1:1] If you do not KNOW IDENTITY of God, try as you may, it will remain a MYSTERY. The MYSTERY is resolved in Jesus Christ, “For IN HIM DWELLETH ALL THE FULNESS OF THE GODHEAD BODILY” [Colossians 2:9] Some unwittingly take the wrong turn from the first verse, separating God who “GAVE” the message from Jesus Christ who “SHEW” to His SERVANTS. Beloved, the TWO are ONE, “And without controversy great is the MYSTERY OF GODLINESS: GOD WAS MANIFEST IN THE FLESH, …” [1 Timothy 3:16] Jesus Christ is the WORD that was in the BEGINNING, became FLESH and dwelt among us [John 1:1 & 14] Whosoever accepts Christ as the IDENTITY of God is ONE with the FATHER and SON, as it is written: “At that day ye shall know that I AM IN MY FATHER, and YE IN ME, and I IN YOU” [John 14:20] In Christ, the VAIL is removed, the eyes of our understanding ENLIGHTENED to SEE the MIND of God.
3. This BOOK is addressed to the SERVANTS of Jesus Christ and to His SERVANTS it is given “… to know the MYSTERIES OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD: but to others in parables; that SEEING THEY MIGHT NOT SEE, and HEARING THEY MIGHT NOT UNDERSTAND” [Luke 8:10] We are not SERVANTS of Christ by reason of TITLES, but by CALLING of God and steadfast FAITH in the WORD OF LIFE, “… WHICH WAS FROM THE BEGINNING, which we have HEARD, which we have SEEN with our eyes, which we have LOOKED upon, and our hands have HANDLED, of the WORD OF LIFE; (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear WITNESS, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)” [1 John 1:1-2] When we have HEARD from those who preached Christ to us, yet are we not His SERVANTS until we our INNER EYES are initiated into the MYSTERY OF GODLINESS to SEE and LOOK UPON Jesus Christ SEATED on the throne. He alone chooses His SERVANTS, instructs and equips them with great GRACE to HANDLE the WORD OF LIFE, “… not walking in craftiness, NOR HANDLING THE WORD OF GOD DECEITFULLY; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God” [1 Corinthians 4:2] We are STEWARDS of Christ, not of men, therefore, “Let a man so account of us, as of the MINISTERS of Christ, and STEWARDS OF THE MYSTERIES OF GOD” [1 Corinthians 4:1]
4. John was IN THE SPIRIT when he received instruction to “Write the THINGS WHICH THOU HAST SEEN, and the THINGS WHICH ARE, and the THINGS WHICH SHALL BE HEREAFTER” [Revelation 1:10&19] God is SPIRIT, John was in the SPIRIT and it evident we must be in the SPIRIT both to READ and UNDERSTAND this BOOK. If the language and imagery are confusing, it is so to those who are not in the SPIRIT. We are in the SPIRIT, when we wholeheartedly SUBMIT to Jesus Christ as LORD and SAVIOUR, “CASTING DOWN IMAGINATIONS, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the KNOWLEDGE OF GOD, and BRINGING INTO CAPTIVITY EVERY THOUGHT TO THE OBEDIENCE OF CHRIST” [2 Corinthians 10:5] Our IMAGINATION reflects the intellect not the SPIRIT and compounds the limitations of squeezing heavenly things into TIME and earthly DIMENSIONS. When we CAST DOWN IMAGINATIONS, we do away with restrictions of TIME and SPACE, and our INNER MAN is enabled to SEE and HEAR what John SAW and HEARD, in real time. This BOOK was written some 2,000 years ago and there are apparent differences in language and choice of imagery. These challenges are resolved when you are in the SPIRIT of Christ, praying always,” That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be STRENGTHENED with MIGHT by his SPIRIT in the INNER MAN” [Ephesians 3:16]
5. This BOOK is in two broad parts. The first section, Chapters 1-3, were dictated and received on earth. The second part, Chapters 4-22, were received after John was caught up to heaven in the SPIRIT [Revelation 4:1-2] Both subdivisions make up the CAPSTONE MESSAGE of Jesus Christ to His Church, and a “MUST READ” for the SAINTS. It is the only BOOK of the Bible that has a BLESSING attached and a CURSE too. First, the BLESSING, “Behold, I come quickly: BLESSED is he that KEEPETH the SAYINGS of the PROPHECY of this BOOK” [Revelation 22:7] To KEEP the SAYINGS of this BOOK require we STUDY it and WATCH diligently for the fulfilment thereof. If any man shall ADD to it, “… God SHALL ADD UNTO HIM THE PLAGUES that are written in this book” [Revelation 22:18] If any man REMOVES from it, “… God SHALL TAKE AWAY HIS PART OUT OF THE BOOK OF LIFE, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book” [Revelation 22:19] Some of the prophecies are fulfilled, some are being fulfilled and every one shall be established. I encourage you to READ and STUDY this BOOK with reverence, in the SPIRIT, looking forward with WATCHING and PRAYER for the appearance of the Lord, when we shall be caught up to be with Him forever [1 Thessalonians 4:17]
6. Now we proceed to Chapter 1. TO BE CONTINUED

1.

The second part, Chapters 4-22, were received after John was caught up to heaven in the SPIRIT [Revelation 4:1-2] Both subdivisions make up the CAPSTONE MESSAGE of Jesus Christ to His Church, and a “MUST READ” for the SAINTS.

I encourage you to READ and STUDY this BOOK with reverence, in the SPIRIT, looking forward with WATCHING and PRAYER for the appearance of the Lord, when we shall be caught up to be with Him forever [1 Thessalonians 4:17]

5. Now we proceed to Chapter 1. TO BE CONTINUED

There is so much happening at the same time; climate change, earth quakes, pandemic, economic downturn, social disorder, etc., therefore, “WATCH and PRAY, that ye ENTER NOT INTO TEMPTATION: the SPIRIT INDEED IS WILLING, but the FLESH IS WEAK” [Matthew 26:41] …..

1. VISIONS of HEAVEN are not strange to our FAITH, however, in view of a rash of VISIONS by some who claim to have visited HEAVEN after DEATH or near-DEATH experiences, it is prudent to set the records straight, as it is written: “DESPISE NOT PROPHESYINGS. PROVE ALL THINGS; hold fast that which is good” [1 Thessalonians 5:20-21] We must not DESPISE VISIONS and PROPHECY, as becoming of SAINTS, but in ALL THINGS line up with the WORD of God, as did the brethren in Berea, “These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they RECEIVED THE WORD WITH ALL READINESS OF MIND, and SEARCHED THE SCRIPTURES daily, WHETHER THOSE THINGS WERE SO” [Acts 17:11] Let us not be hasty to BELIEVE or be swayed by the testimony of men but PROVE ALL THINGS by the WORD of the Lord as did the brethren in Samaria, saying: “… NOW WE BELIEVE, not because of thy saying: for WE HAVE HEARD HIM OURELVES, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world” [John 4 :42]

2. The Gentile CHURCH is in her ”LAST DAYS”, and the “… Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the LATTER TIMES SOME SHALL DEPART FROM THE FAITH, GIVING HEED TO SEDUCING SPIRITS and DOCTRINES OF DEVILS;” [1 Timothy 3:1] SEDUCING SPIRITS project MISINFORMATION and DISINFORMATION of TRUTH , as the SERPENT did in Eden, saying; “HATH GOD SAID”. Eve took the BAIT and swallowed the LIE, as it is written: “And the SERPENT said unto the woman, YE SHALL NOT SURELY DIE” [Genesis 3:1-4] In the same way, these VISIONS mimic Scripture to weaken your defenses and slay your FAITH, “But the RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH IS OF FAITH speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, WHO SHALL ASCEND INTO HEAVEN? Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) But what saith it? THE WORD IS NIGH THEE, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the WORD OF FAITH, WHICH WE PREACH” [Romans 10:6-8] Search the Scriptures, God does not require any man to DIE or go into COMA to receive VISIONS of HEAVEN. I WARN YOU IN GOOD FAITH; they are VISIONS OF DELUSION orchestrated by SEDUCING SPIRITS to DISTRACT and SELL the LIE to the ELECT, “For there shall arise FALSE CHRISTS, and FALSE PROPHETS, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, IF IT WERE POSSIBLE, THEY SHALL DECEIVE THE VERY ELECT” [Matthew 24:24]

3. The work of SALVATION was finished when Jesus died on the Cross and we are SAVED by FAITH in His NAME, who BELIEVE “God was MANIFEST IN THE FLESH” and gave His LIFE for us in Jesus Christ [1 Timothy 3:16] Every thing pertaining to our SALVATION is settled, and we who remain in the TRUTH till the end shall sit with Him on His throne, as it is written: ”To HIM THAT OVERCOMETH will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and AM SET DOWN WITH MY FATHER IN HIS THRONE” [Revelation 3:21] Listen carefully, the FATHER and SON are ONE; John saw Him and testified: “… I was in the spirit: and, behold, A THRONE WAS SET IN HEAVEN, and ONE SAT ON THE THRONE. And HE THAT SAT WAS TO LOOK UPON LIKE A JASPER and a SARDINE STONE: and there was A RAINBOW round about the throne, in sight like unto AN EMERALD” [Revelation 4:2-3] John saw DEITY, not a FATHER and his SON, and the two are ONE, as it is written: “I AND MY FATHER ARE ONE” [John 10:30] Those who claim Jesus Christ took them on TOUR of HEAVEN propagate VISIONS OF DELUSION to separate the FATHER and SON and sell the doctrine of TRINITY through the backdoor. If any man BELIEVES God will leave His throne to take a man on TOUR of HEAVEN and HELL to convince him, he is DELUDED. Jesus settled it on the Cross: ”… If they hear not Moses and the prophets, NEITHER WILL THEY BE PERSUADED, THOUGH ONE ROSE FROM THE DEAD” [Luke 16:31]

4. I write to the CHURCH, as to men who know the SEASON of Christ’s appearance. The HOUR OF TEMPTATION is here, as it is written: “Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the HOUR OF TEMPTATION, which shall come upon the world, TO TRY THEM THAT DWELL UPON THE EARTH. Behold, I COME QUIKLY: HOLD FAST WHICH THOU HAST, THAT NO MAN TAKE THY CROWN” [Revelation 3:10-11] Now, more than ever, let us HOLD FAST to the TRUTH and refuse to be BEWITCHED by another GOSPEL, purportedly from HEAVEN, and “… THOUGH WE, or an ANGEL FROM HEAVEN, PREACH ANY OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that which we have preached unto you, LET HIM BE ACCURSED” [Galatians 1:8] Those who claim to have visited HEAVEN and brought a message LIE to you, as did the Old Prophet to the Man of God from Judah, saying: “… an ANGEL SPOKE TO ME BY THE WORD OF THE LORD, saying, Bring him back with thee into thine house, that he may eat bread and drink water. BUT HE LIED TO HIM” [1 Kings 13:1-32] If any man has EARS, let him HEAR; those who peddle these stories sell VISIONS OF DELUSION, to lure you away from the TRUTH, “And for this cause GOD SHALL SEND THEM STRONG DELUSION, THAT THEY SHOULD BELIEVE A LIE: That they all might be DAMNED WHO BELIEVED NOT THE TRUTH, but had pleasure in unrighteousness” [2 Thessalonians 2:9-12]
5. 
Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour, amen

Friend, if all you have is the WITNESS of men, those who assure you of SALVATION in Jesus Christ MANIPULATE your ignorance, thus says the Lord: “No man can come to me, except the FATHER WHICH HAS SENT ME DRAW HIM: and I will raise him up at the last day [John 6:44]

Listen carefully, though our AFFLICTIONS are VISIBLE, they are not ETERNAL and shall soon pass away: “… for the THINGS WHICH ARE SEEN ARE TEMPORAL; but the THINGS WHICH ARE NOT SEEN ARE ETERNAL” [2 Corinthians 4:18] …. http://www.voiceolasttrumpets.com

1. Our Lord Jesus Christ, in His HOUR OF TEMPTATION, said to His disciples; “… My soul is exceeding SORROWFUL, EVEN UNTO DEATH: tarry ye here, and WATCH WITH ME. … What, could ye not WATCH WITH ME ONE HOUR?” [Matthew 26:39] He was TEMPTED, but did not give in to the FLESH, “Saying, Father, if thou be willing, REMOVE THIS CUP FROM ME: nevertheless NOT MY WILL, BUT THINE, BE DONE” [Luke 22:42] HOUR OF TEMPTATION of the world is here, “… DISTRESS OF NATIONS, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;  MEN’S FEARTS FAILING THEM FOR FEAR, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken” [Luke 21:25-26] We shall be TRIED in the furnace of TEMPTATIONS, and only those who overcome present AFFLICTIONS with godly PATIENCE shall be SAVED, as it is written: “Because thou hast KEPT THE WORD OF MY PATIENCE, I also will KEEP THE FROM the HOUR OF TEMPTATION, which shall come upon all the world, TO TRY THEM that dwell upon the earth” [Revelation 3:10]

2.COVID-19 is an eye opener of what lies ahead, and it is certain “… we must THROUGH MUCH TRIBULATION ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM of God” [Acts 14:22] PAINS and TEMPTATIONS of this HOUR are not strange to PROPHECY or something to FEAR; they were FORETOLD, therefore, “IN YOUR PATIENCE POSSESS YE YOUR SOULS” [Luke 21:19] Collapsing structures of governance, social anarchy, climatic disorder, compounded by global economic downturn cast disproportionate burdens on the BRIDE to mortify the FLESH and remain true to Christ. Nonetheless, it is a shame to see otherwise SINCERE brethren jettison PATIENCE and LONG-SUFFERING to engage PROPHECY with carnal passion, whereas “…  they that are Christ's have CRUCIFIED THE FLESH WITH THE AFFECTIONS and LUSTS” [Galatians 5:24] Carnal AFFFECTIONS long hidden under robes of religious piety are fast becoming the norm amongst us. How do we explain brethren turning their AFFECTION to politics, politicians and social activism presumably to prevent the appearance of the ANTICHRIST, when Jesus clearly stated, “… MY KINGDOM IS NOT OF THIS WORLD: IF MY KINGDOM WERE OF THIS WORLD, THEN WOULD MY SERVANTS FIGHT, ….” [John 18:36] Every time we allow FLESHLY PASSION to push us to the streets to FIGHT for or against kingdoms of this world, we fall deeper into the world“… know ye not that the FRIENDSHIP OF THE WORLD IS ENMITY WITH GOD? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God” [James 4:4] What happens if the Lord should come while we are out there chanting slogans?

3. As unrest spreads across the earth, … there shall arise FALSE CHRISTS, and FALSE PROPHETS, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, IF IT WERE POSSIBLE, THEY SHALL DECEIVE THE VERY ELECT” [Matthew 24:24] False Christs and False Prophets signify satanic DISINFORMATION. The AGENDA is mass HYPNOTISM, driven by an army of demons and seducing spirits, as  was the case in Samaria, where Simon, “… USED SORCERY, and BEWITCHED THE PEOPLE OF SAMARIA, giving out that himself was SOME GREAT ONE” [Acts 8: 9-11] We are pressed on every side by a vicious WAR of DISINFORMATION fought on every channel of communication known to man, to SUBVERT our heavenly INHERITANCE with the profanity sold to Esau, “For ye know how that afterward, WHEN HE WOULD HAVE RECEIVED THE BLESSING, HE WAS REJECTED: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears” [Hebrews 12:27] HOUR OF TEMPTATION is here; nothing is what it seems to be. Do not BELIEVE everything you SEE, HEAR or READ, but “PROVE ALL THINGS, HOLD FAST THAT WHICH IS GOOD” [1Thessalonians 5:21] Whatever you SEE, HEAR or READ, “PROVE ALL THINGS” with the WORD of God. Stand firm in the VICTORY of Christ, having your FAITH anchored on the sure PROMISE of His Coming,  “But EXHORT ONE ANOTHER DAILY, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the DECEITFULNESS OF SIN” [Hebrews 3{13]

4. As the HOUR OF TEMPTATION settles on the earth, it is certain we shall soon be TRANSLATED to glory, “And WHEN THESE THINGS BEGIN TO COME TO PASS, LOOK UP, and lift up your heads; for YOUR REDEMPTION DRAWETH NIGH” [Luke 21:28] Let us purge our hearts of all excesses of the FLESH, not giving room to TEMPTATIONS of the HOUR, “Wherein they think it strange that YE RUN NOT WITH THEM IN THE SAME EXCESS OF RIOT, speaking evil of you” [1 Peter 4:4] Hold on to your FAITH, refusing all entreaties to be dragged into “Perverse disputings of MEN OF CORRUPT MINDS, and DESTITUTE OF TRUTH, SUPPOSING THAT GAIN IS GODLINESS: from such WITHDRAW THYSELF” [1Timothy 6:5] Do not allow the exigencies of the HOUR to DISTRACT you, but “LOOKING UNTO JESUS the author and finisher of our faith; WHO FOR THE JOY SET BEFORE HIM ENDURED THE CROSS, DESPISING THE SHAME, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God” [Hebrews 12:2] Though it seems like forever, it won’t be long “For HE WILL FINISH THE WORK, and CUT IT SHORT IN RIGHTEOUSNESS: because A SHORT WORK will the Lord make upon the earth” [Romans 9:28] Encourage one another, waiting PATIENTLY for the Lord to appear in clouds of glory, and “…  WHEN HE SHALL APPEAR, WE SHALL BE LIKE HIM; for we shall see him as he is” [1 John 3:2] 

5. Friend, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour, amen 

  

1. Jesus Christ SUFFERED for our SIN and in His HOUR OF TEMPTATION, said to His disciples, “… My soul is exceeding SORROWFUL, EVEN UNTO DEATH: tarry ye here, and WATCH WITH ME. … What, could ye not WATCH WITH ME ONE HOUR?” [Matthew 26:39] He was TEMPTED, but did not give in to the FLESH, “Saying, Father, if thou be willing, REMOVE THIS CUP FROM ME: nevertheless NOT MY WILL, BUT THINE, BE DONE” [Luke 22:42] HOUR OF TEMPTATION of the world is here, “… DISTRESS OF NATIONS, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; 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” [Luke 21:25-26] We shall be TRIED in the furnace of TEMPTATIONS, and only those who overcome present AFFLICTIONS with godly PATIENCE shall be SAVED, as it is written: “Because thou hast KEPT THE WORD OF MY PATIENCE, I also will KEEP THE FROM the HOUR OF TEMPTATION, which shall come upon all the world, TO TRY THEM that dwell upon the earth” [Revelation 3:10]

The objective is to SUBVERT our BIRTHRIGHT of heavenly INHERITANCE for the profanity sold to Esau, “For ye know how that afterward, WHEN HE WOULD HAVE RECEIVED THE BLESSING, HE WAS REJECTED: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears” [Hebrews 12:27] It is the HOUR OF TEMPTATION and nothing is what it seems to be. You must not BELIEVE everything you SEE, HEAR or READ on TELEVISION, SOCIAL MEDIA and sundry INTERNET facilities; they are packaged to gnaw at your FAITH, as Satan tried to do with Jesus, “… and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the GLORY OF THEM; And saith unto him, ALL THESE THINGS WILL I GIVE THEE, IF THOU WILT FALL DOWN AND WORSHIP ME” [Matthew 4:8-9] Beloved, stand firm in the VICTORY of Christ, having your FAITH anchored on the sure PROMISE of His Coming.

4.

I acknowledge those who wish we do not write “DISTRESSING” things about the Church or Pastors. Even so, if we all keep quiet, who shall WARN the flocks of “… FALSE PROPHETS, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but INWARDLY, THEY ARE RAVENING WOLVES” [Matthew 7:15] ….

1. 1. We are HEIRS OF GLORY, through Jesus Christ, “And if children, then heirs; HEIRS OF GOD, and JOINT-HEIRS WITH CHRIST; if so be that we suffer with him, that WE MAY BE ALSO GLORIFIED together” [Romans 8:17] We are JOINT-HEIRS with Him, because God indeed, DIED in Jesus Christ to establish us in the TESTAMENT of His INHERITANCE “For where a TESTAMENT is, there must also of necessity be the DEATH OF THE TESTATOR. For a TESTAMENT IS OF FORCE AFTER MEN ARE DEAD: otherwise it is of NO STRENGTH AT ALL WHILE THE TESTATOR LIVETH” [Hebrews 9:16-17] We are HEIRS OF GLORY, and it is a MYSTERY, “Which none of the princes of this world knew: for HAD THEY KNOWN IT, THEY WOULD NOT HAVE CRUCIFIED THE LORD OF GLORY” [1 Corinthians 2:8] Jesus Christ is the TESTATOR of our INHERITANCE in GLORY, and ”… AS MANY AS RECEIVED HIM, to them GAVE HE POWER TO BECOME SONS OF GOD, even to them that believe on his name” [John 1:12]
3. 2. We are JOINT-HEIRS with Jesus Christ; He is the FIRSTBORN, and we are his BRETHREN, “For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be CONFORMED TO THE IMAGE OF HIS SON, that he might be the FIRSTBORN AMONG MANY BRETHREN” [Romans 8:29] Listen carefully, God became the SON OF MAN in Christ, to make us SONS OF GOD and in Him was no SIN. We are His BRETHREN, as long as SIN has no part in our BODY [1 Peter 1:15] Let us turn away from LUSTS and AFFECTIONS of the FLESH and present ourselves “A LIVING SACRIFICE”, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service” [Romans 12:1] However, we have an ADVERSARY, the TEMPTER, who provokes the FLESH with “Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, … murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that THEY WHICH DO SUCH THINGS SHALL NOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD” [Galatians 5:19-21] RESIST him with FAITH in the WORD of God, “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 1:7] If we SUFFER in RESISTING SIN, we have Christ’s assurance of a GLORIOUS BODY and “… AN INHERITANCE INCORRUPTIBLE, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, RESERVED IN HEAVEN FOR YOU” [1 Peter 1:4]
5. 3. We are HEIRS OF GLORY because we are “… BORN AGAIN, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, BY THE WORD OF GOD, which liveth and abideth for ever” [1 Peter 1:23] We are JOINT-HEIRS with Christ, yet the “… HEIR, AS LONG AS HE IS A CHILD, DIFFERETH NOTHING FROM A SERVANT, though he be lord of all” [Galatians 4:1] A SERVANT has the MIND of a labourer; though he labours more than a SON, he has no INHERITANCE. A SERVANT works for WAGES, the HEIR “SEEKS THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE ABOVE., “If ye then be risen with Christ, SEEK THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE ABOVE, WHERE CHRIST SITTETH on the right hand of God” [Colossians 3:1] Let Christ richly dwell in you, WATCHING and PRAYING to RENEW your MIND with PRESENT TRUTH, “And BE NOT CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD: but be ye TRANSFORMED BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and PERFECT, WILL OF GOD [Romans 12:2] AVOID those who corrupt your MIND with CRASS MATERIALISM; truth be told, Jesus did not DIE to make you a MILLIONAIRE but to join you to Himself in GLORY, and thus says the Lord: “… I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that WHERE I AM, THERE YOU MAY BE ALSO” [John 14:3] Remember, we are HEIRS OF GLORY, not of MEAT and DRINK, therefore, let not your “… hearts be overcharged with SURFEITING, and DRUNKENNESS, and CARES OF THIS LIFE, and SO THAT DAY COME UPON YOU UNAWARES” [Luke 21:34]
7. 4. We are HEIRS OF GLORY, but “… it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, WHEN HE SHALL APPEAR, WE SHALL BE LIKE HIM; for we shall see him as he is” [1John 3:2] At His appearance we shall be CAUGHT UP, for the MARRIAGE SUPPER of the LAMB, and “… BLESSED ARE THEY WHICH ARE CALLED INTO THE MARRIAGE SUPPER OF THE LAMB. … ” [Revelation 19:9] We shall be joined, as ROYAL CONSORT with Him on His throne, as it is written: “TO HIM THAT OVERCOMETH WILL I GRANT TO SIT WITH ME IN MY THRONE, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne” [Revelation 3:21] When He shall return for the MILLENIUM, we shall REIGN with Him as KINGS and “… PRIESTS of God and of Christ, and SHALL REIGN WITH HIM A THOUSAND YEARS“ [Revelation 20:6] After the MILLENIUM and WHITE THRONE JUDGMENT, we shall be established in NEW HEAVEN and NEW EARTH, “And GOD SHALL WIPE AWAY ALL TEARS from their eyes; and there shall be NO MORE DEATH, neither SORROW, nor CRYING, neither shall there be any more PAIN: for the former things are passed away” [Revelation 21:4] Beloved, I plead with you not to be DISTRACTED by those who peddle platitudes of HOPE in earthly things. Set your eyes on Christ and be prepared for His appearance “… beholding as in a glass the GLORY OF THE LORD, are CHANGED INTO THE SAME IMAGE FROM GLORY TO GLORY, even as by the Spirit of the Lord” [2 Corinthians 3:18]
9. 5. Receive Jesus Christ today, as your Lord and Saviour, amen

I walked home, alone, and had to pass through a dark lonely stretch of road. I was not halfway through, when I heard running footsteps and voices of a mob chasing a burglar.. A PERSONAL WITNESS OF SALVATION

1. Though the SIN of Sodom and Gomorrah stank to the heavens, God brought Lot, his wife and two daughters out, “And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes CONDEMNED THEM WITH AN OVERTHROW, making them AN EXAMPLE UNTO THOSE THAT AFTER SHOULD LIVE UNGODLY” [2 Peter 2:6] This generation surpass the ABOMINATIONS of Sodom, adding TRANSGENDERS, TRANSVESTITES and NO GENDERS to SODOMY. Even so, God has made provision for you and I, to be SAVED, “The LIKE FIGURE WHEREUNTO EVEN BAPTISM DOTH ALSO NOW SAVE US (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) BY THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST” [1 Peter 3:21] Alas, having escaped the FILTH of Sodom, Lot’s wife LOOKED BACK, “… from BEHIND HIM, and SHE BECAME A PILLAR OF SALT” [Genesis 19:26] Beloved, let us HOLD TIGHT to our SALVATION not LOOKING BACK, “… NO MAN, having put his hand to the plough, and LOOKING BACK, IS FIT FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD” [Luke 9:62]

2. The angels gave clear instructions to Lot and his family, “… ESCAPE FOR THY LIFE, LOOK NOT BEHIND thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; ESCAPE to the mountain…” [Genesis 19:17] The same apply to us, if so be we are BORN AGAIN; “… having ESCAPED THE CORRUPTION THAT IS IN THE WORLD through lust” [2 Peter 1:4] They took nothing out of Sodom, even as it is certain we shall take nothing out of this world. Let us therefore RUN, not as Lot’s wife LAGGED BEHIND, overwhelmed with THOUGHTS of her LOSSES and expired EXPECTATIONS. Every recurring THOUGHT of LOSS incurred for coming to Jesus Christ is an unwanted BURDEN, “… LET US LAY ASIDE EVERY WEIGHT, and the SIN which doth so easily beset us, and let us RUN WITH PATIENCE THE RACE that is set before us” [Hebrews 12:1] Likewise, whatever we were or HOPED to be in times past were buried with Jesus Christ, and “… if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATURE: OLD THINGS ARE PASSED AWAY; behold, ALL THINGS ARE BECOME NEW” [2 Corinthians 5:17] Whenever we are overcome with THOUGHTS of “OLD THINGS”, it is a sign we are “DRAWING “BACK”, “But we are not of them WHO DRAW BACK UNTO PERDITION; but of them that BELIEVE TO THE SAVING OF THE SOUL” [Hebrews 10:39] Now, more than ever before, let us keep the FIRE of FAITH burning “LOOKING DILIGENTLY lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any ROOT OF BITTERNESS SPRING UP TROUBLE YOU, and thereby many be defiled” [Hebrews 12:15]

3. Somewhere on the plains of Jordan is a PILLAR OF SALT; a tragic memorial to the DISOBEDIENCE of Lot’s wife. DISOBEDIENCE is the root NATURE of SINFUL MAN, but in Christ, “… our OLD MAN IS CRUCIFIED WITH HIM, that the BODY OF SIN MIGHT BE DESTROYED, that henceforth WE SHOULD NOT SERVE SIN” [Romans 6:6] When we come to Christ in genuine REPENTANCE, DISOBEDIENCE is CRUCIFIED, but we are not ALIVE in OBEDIENCE until we are CONVERTED to NEWNESS OF LIFE, even “… as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so WE ALSO SHOULD WALK IN NEWNESS OF LIFE” [Romans 6:4] We are CONVERTED to OBEDIENCE through BAPTISM of the Holy Ghost, “Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, THROUGH SANCTIFICATION OF THE SPIRIT, UNTO OBEDIENCE … ” [2 Peter 1:2] DISOBEDIENCE may be pleasing to the FLESH, it is a signal we are TURNING BACK. Needless to say, OBEDIENCE is a magnet for “SUFFERING”, and Christ “Though he were a Son, yet LEARNED HE OBEDIENCE BY THE THINGS WHICH HE SUFFERED” [Hebrews 5:8] Let us walk in OBEDIENCE to PRESENT TRUTH, not as Lot’s wife who counted her LOSSES far above the glory of SALVATION, “Yea, and all that will LIVE GODLY IN CHRIST SHALL SUFFER PERSECUTION” [2 Timothy 3:12] Beloved, our SUFFERING is for a while, and “IF WE SUFFER, WE SHALL ALSO REIGN WITH HIM: if we deny him, he also will deny us” [2 Timothy 2:12]

4. LOOKING BACK begins with a reckless THOUGHT of LOSS incurred for the sake of Christ or an ambition dashed for standing in FAITH. If it is left unchecked, it grows into a tsunami, overwhelms the mind and turns OBEDIENCE into REBELLION. If any man TURNS BACK from OBEDIENCE to Christ to DISOBEDIENCE, there is no HOPE of redemption, “For IF WE SIN WILFULLY after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, THERE REMAINETH NO MORE SACRIFICE FOR SINS, But a certain fearful looking for of JUDGMENT and FIERY INDIGNATION, which shall devour the adversaries” [Hebrews 10:26-27] I plead with you to put away every THOUGHT that DISTRACTS you, and walk in OBEDIENCE to PRESENT TRUTH, “… knowing the time, that now it is high time to AWAKE OUT OF SLEEP: for NOW IS OUR SALVATION NEARER THAN WHEN WE BELIEVED” [Romans 13:11] We have in our favour SURE PROMISES of BETTER THINGS than we can every pray for or imagine at the appearance of Jesus Christ, as it is written: “… I WILL COME AGAIN, and receive you unto myself; that WHERE I AM, THERE YE MAY BE ALSO” [John 14:3] Having such a PROMISE, let us PRESS FORWARD to the mark of His CALLING, not LOOKING BACK, but “… FORGETTING THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE BEHIND, and REACHING FORTH UNTO THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE BEFORE” [Philippians 3:13]

5. If you have not known Him, accept Jesus Christ today as your Lord and Saviour, amen

1. When the Lord Jesus Christ said, in Luke 11:44, “Woe unto you, SCRIBES and PHARISEES…”, He spoke to this generation and it was “… WRITTEN FOR OUR ADMONITION, upon whom the ENDS OF THE WORLD are come” [1 Corinthians 10:11] He did not hate SCRIBES, that is TEACHERS of the LAW but exposed their HYPOCRISY to bring them to REPENTANCE, that He might SAVE them. Brethren, the SPIRIT of SCRIBES is very much evident in the present Church and we do not well if we keep quiet, because we desire to be RELIGIOUSLY CORRECT or for FEAR of what men will say or do. Thus, says the Lord, “BE NOT AFRAID OF THEIR FACES: for I AM WITH THEE to deliver thee, saith the LORD” [Jeremiah 1:8] Let us, in all SINCERITY, CONTEND for the DOCTRINES of Christ, not having any man in mind but Christ, WARNING all men as “… He said unto them in his DOCTRINE, BEWARE OF THE SCRIBES,…” [Mark 12:38] And this, let us do, not in ENVY, HATRED or “… EYESERVICE, as MENPLEASERS; but as the SERVANTS OF CHRIST, doing the WILL OF GOD FROM THE HEART” [Ephesians 6:6]

2. SCRIBES were first mentioned in 2 Samuel 8:17, and grew rapidly into a professional cadre of TEACHERS of the LAW, as PRIESTS paid more attention to RITUALS than MINISTRY of the LAW. By the time of Jesus Christ, PHARISEES, SADDUCEES and HERODIANS had SCRIBES who TAUGHT and INTERPRETED Scriptures to accommodate their excesses. The SPIRIT of SCRIBES is the reason there are DIVISIONS in the Church and SEMINARIES to INSTRUCT Preachers in sectional THEOLOGY. I assure you, there is no culture of BIBLE SCHOOLS or SEMINARIES in the NEW TESTAMENT Church, “But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and YE NEED NOT THAT ANY MAN TEACH YOU: but as the same ANOINTING TEACHETH YOU ALL THINGS, and is TRUTH, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him” [1 John 22:27] Let no man be deceived, God does not require a professional DIPLOMA or DOCTORATE in THEOLOGY, “For it is GOD WHICH WORKETH IN YOU both to will and to do of his good pleasure” [Philippians 2:13] The choice is yours; BIBLE SCHOOLS will replicate THEOLOGY of SCRIBES in you, “But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and YE NEED NOT THAT ANY MAN TEACH YOU: but as the same ANOINTING TEACHETH YOU OF ALL THINGS, AND IS TRUTH, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him” [1 John 2:27]

3. SCRIBES are neither BORN or ORDAINED by God, but forged in those who once LOVED the TRUTH, but driftedt into perfidious GREED and “… being past feeling have GIVEN THEMSELVES UNTO LASCIVIOUSNESS, to work all uncleanness WITH GREEDINESS” [Ephesians 4:19] Beloved, do more than listen to your Bishop; consider also his PASSION for earthly goods and his disposition to be accepted in the MARKETPLACES of this world. It is not my personal OPINION but the DOCTRINE of the Lord, “And he said unto them IN HIS DOCTRINE, BEWARE OF THE SCRIBES, which LOVE to go in LONG CLOTHING, and LOVE SALUTATIONS in the MARKETPLACES, And the CHIEF SEATS in the SYNAGOGUES, and the UPPERMOST ROOMS at FEASTS. Which DEVOUR WIDOW’S HOUSES, and FOR A PRETENCE MAKE LONG PRAYERS: these shall receive greater damnation” [Matthew 12:38-40] Those who turned the Church into a MARKETPLACE, and cover their LUSTS with LONG CLOTHING” of false piety are SCRIBES, “… men of corrupt minds, and DESTITUTE OF THE TRUTH, SUPPOSING THAT GAIN IS GODLINESS: from such WITHDRAW THYSELF” [1 Timothy 6:5] WATCH your Pastor closely, when a man who once LOVED the TRUTH is compromised by GREED, he no longer speaks against SIN, does not exalt RIGHTEOUSNESS and neglects JUDGMENT, but “… with FEIGNED WORDS MAKE MERCHADISE OF YOU: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not” [2 Peter 2:3]

4. SCRIBES are smart with words and you may never see the SCRIBE in your Pastor until it is too late, and you are SHUT OUT of heaven, “But WOE UNTO YOU, SCRIBES, and Pharisees, HYPOCRITES! for ye SHUT UP THE KINGDOM of heaven against men: for ye NEITHER GO IN yourselves, NEITHER SUFFER YE THEM THAT ARE ENTERING TO GO IN” [Matthew 23:13] It is hard to believe, but there are Preachers in the Church hierarchy propelled by the SPIRIT of SCRIBES, like Simon in Samaria, “TO WHOM THEY ALL GAVE HEED, from the least to the greatest, SAYING THIS MAN IS THE GREAT POWER OF GOD” [Acts 8:10] You see, the GOSPEL is not about numbers, but CONFORMITY with the PATTERN of Jesus Christ, and “YE SHALL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?” [Matthew 7:16] After many years of crisscrossing nations in the name of Christ, the harvest is there for all to see, but without condemning any man’s work, the Bible says: “WOE UNTO YOU, SCRIBES and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, YE MAKE HIM TWOFOLD MORE THE CHILD OF HELL than yourselves” [Matthew 23:15] Beloved, break free of those who make merchandise of your SOUL and prepare yourself for the imminent appearance of Jesus Christ, when “… WE WHICH ARE ALIVE and REMAIN SHALL BE CAUGHT UP together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord” [1Thessalonians 4:17]

5. Accept Jesus Christ and be CAUGHT UP at His appearance, amen
