It’s all a satanic agenda to turn people against each other, to begin a civil war so the vile communists can step in and take over!
The examples are plentiful: Recently a white man defended himself against two white attackers and was called a “white supremacist” for exercising his 2nd Amendment right. Then, days later, a black man who verifiably lived his life hating white people used his SUV to run over and murder six innocent white people and injure a dozen more. And Satan’s MSM said it was a “red SUV that ran over” those people. Are you awake?
The idea that “all these white people are racist” is just another hoax perpetrated by CIA project mockingbird MSM (mainstream media). Satan’s design in this hoax is to turn people against each other just because of skin color – and the Salvation Army has now joined that diabolical endeavor.
Personally, I know at least hundreds, more like thousands of people who were born with white skin by divine design, who are not racist at all. In fact, most if not all of them desire to see others, including people with different color skin, to prosper. Oh, and there are people of every skin color who ARE full of hatred. Hatred/racism is not a matter of skin but rather of sin – sin in the heart.
“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
This is not about color of skin. It’s about a devil who seeks to turn mankind against each other. Only ungodly people are participating. And, speaking of ungodly people, let’s talk about the God-less devils who are currently running the Salvation Army.
The delusion being perpetrated by Satan’s world system and the Salvation Army, is to isolate “racism” to just one skin tone, which is laughable. And the Salvation Army is completely backslidden. They went “woke” which means they have been turned over to “strong delusion” by God Himself for not loving and obeying His truth (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12). What they are doing is “after the working of Satan” (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12).
Beware of the propaganda which is designed to turn people against each other. This is a divisive tactic of Satan himself.
“Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.” 2 Corinthians 2:11
Jesus promised that:
“And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.” Matthew 24:11
The Holy Ghost promised that “in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;” (1 Timothy 4:1).
“William Booth (founder of the Salvation Army) embarked upon his ministerial career in 1852, desiring to win the lost multitudes of England to Christ. He walked the streets of London to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to the poor, the homeless, the hungry and the destitute.”
It’s more than obvious by their fruit, that the modern “Salvation” Army is not preaching the Gospel of Christ’s salvation to all of mankind. No, now it’s being run by unrepentant, demonic frauds, who are enriching themselves as they use the name of the LORD in vain (Exodus 20:7). They are cursed at the root (Job 5:3). The vile wolves now running the Salvation Army are among other things, spineless moral cowards. Think: Have they exposed the antichrist terrorist groups BLM, Antifa, Islam? No, instead, they are attacking the whole population of whites – who have made them rich. Oh, and the founder was white. I assume he was a racist also, right?
“The chief danger that confronts the coming century will be religion without the Holy Ghost, Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration, politics without God, heaven without hell.” William Booth
The current leadership of the Salvation Army are now preaching a social gospel which is “another gospel.” This means they are “accursed” as they deny Christ though they use His holy name in vain to collect billions of dollars (Galatians 1:6-9). They no longer preach that “ALL” men have sinned against God and must repent to be saved, forgiven, and go to Heaven instead of hell. No, instead, they’re so deep in spiritual darkness that now they’ve brazenly turned to a certain segment of God’s human race and are blaming it all on them.
“The greatness of the man’s power is the measure of his surrender.” William Booth
Instead of being surrendered to the LORD Jesus and preaching His original Gospel, today’s false prophets of the Salvation Army have surrendered to Satan, to his world system, and have departed from the faith of the Gospel and are now condemning God’s people, disparaging His creation, instead of preaching His Word to them as Holy Scripture commands (Mark 16:15; 2 Timothy 4:2). These wolves are now isolating one segment of God’s one human race and attacking them, instead of living and operating biblically and preaching the Gospel of Christ to the whole of mankind which is universally fallen (Romans 3).
It’s now crystal clear that these demonic men who now run the Salvation Army have spent more time watching TV and being indoctrinated by Satan than they have reading God’s Word.
You’ve been warned: If you give to this organization or buy from them, you are bidding Godspeed to Satan’s agents and will be judged with them (2 John 10-11).
A mere glimpse at a few quotes from the beloved William Booth will clearly show just how far the devouring wolves who now run the Salvation Army have fallen. They are now an organization, army of Satan’s new world order.
“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?” Matthew 7:15-16
The current Salvation Army chief executive officer (CEO) is General Brian Peddle. Salvation Army false prophet Colonel Richard Munn wears the title of Director, International Social Justice Commission. Unbelievably, the Salvation Army has ceased preaching Christ’s Gospel and are now touting that they are social justice warriors. Total frauds. Notice on the official Salvation Army graphic below: International Social Justice Commission
UPDATE FROM THE GATEWAY PUNDIT:
“Get Woke, Go Broke: Salvation Army Quietly Removes Guide Telling White Donors To “Sincerely Apologize” For Their Racism After Intense Backlash
The Salvation Army is asking for more than donations this year.
According to recent reports the Christian charitable organization is asking all white donors to reflect on their racism this year.
Wow.
As a result of the guide becoming public, donors and supporters across the country have been rescinding their support of the organization en masse, which prompted the Salvation Army to discontinue the guide pending “appropriate review.” But despite removing the documents – for now – nothing in their statement indicates that they are going to back down from pushing woke ideology upon donors.
In fact, it’s quite the contrary. The charity now attempts to shift the blame by claiming that nefarious individuals are making “false claims” and misrepresenting the content to suit their own agenda, while simultaneously reaffirming the Salvation Army’s support for woke ideology.
Completely shameless.”
As you can see, the Salvation Army is now perpetuating the evil doctrine of CRT (critical race theory).
Anyone who apologizes for the skin tone GOD made them with is a total coward! ALL lives matter and anyone disparaging ANY part of God’s creation is accursed.
“We know that we have passed from death unto life (here’s the proof), because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. 15 Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.” 1 John 3:14-15
Did you catch that? Any person who hates ANY other person is a “murderer” in the holy eyes of the Almighty and does not have “eternal life” which means he’s as sure for hell as if he were already there. Repent now, sinner.
Dear Salvation Army Leadership,
It is with great sadness that I write this.
Amazingly, racism today is confined only to and exclusively attributed to those of just one segment of the human race. The false notion of “all white people are racist” is perpetrated daily via Satan’s minions, which now includes the Salvation Army. Notice here below in this statement from the Salvation Army that they are attacking and accusing only people with white skin as being racist.
This open letter would have been written regardless of the people group of a certain color of skin you attacked.
CRT (Critical Race Theory) is the lie that perpetrates the notion that all white people are racist. This is of the world and would be understandable being that they are clearly under Satan’s dominion. Yet, now we see the Salvation Army, instituting this same heretical system within their company and now coming out publicly to accuse all white people as racists. It is nearly understandable to see this evil coming out of the world system and yet not understandable to see it coming from the Salvation Army being that they claim to be a Christian organization.
The body of Christ MUST bring the divine answer to the world! And must demonstrate the love of our God! It’s biblical that sin must be blamed and not skin color. God addressed the sin of hatred in His Word, not any certain skin color.
“By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.” John 13:35
Racism is hatred in the heart and not a skin color. Racism is a matter of the heart and not the color of ones skin. There is hatred in the hearts of men of every skin color. It’s a shame this self-evident truth even has to be stated.
The Cardinal Characteristic of Knowing God [podcast]
“And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. 21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, 22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: 23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.” Mark 7:20-23
Evil, sin emanates from the hearts of men, not their skin.
Instead of speaking words of affirmation of the truth, of healing, the Salvation Army has stepped to the forefront to bring words of hatred and division.
On the Day of Pentecost, the church began with men from “every nation” which means men of every people group under God’s Heaven. And, Christ’s kingdom will live for ever, for ages and ages to come, having no end, in Heaven with Christ the Creator, and containing men of “every nation.” God made us just one human race in His holy image – from Adam and Eve, then of the three sons of Noah (Genesis).
“And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation (ethnos – ethnic group) under heaven.” Acts 2:5
Jesus died to save a people to Himself out of every segment of His human race and that’s what we will see and be in His holy Heaven! There will be no racists in Heaven!
“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation (ethnic group);” Revelation 5:9
In each instance, ethnos is the Greek word here for “nation” … With this in mind, check out what Jesus foretold of these final days leading up to His return:
“But in every nation (people group) he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.” Acts 10:35
“Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.” Colossians 3:11
What you, the Salvation Army, has done, for which YOU are in need of repentance, is to join the hate mongering children of Satan, children of hate, by attacking, by isolating one of the segments of God’s creation, erroneously painting them all with the same sinister brush.
Name one people group that should apologize for what skin color God made them?! … yeah I thought so!
Increased hatred was foretold for these last days – and the Salvation Army is participating, all while claiming to be Christian. The Salvation Army is clearly on the wrong side of prophecy and proving they are an organization given over to Satan and not Christ’s salvation. “Nation Shall Rise Against Nation”
Name one part of God’s creation He permits us to disparage?! Yeah, thought so…
Applying the Golden Rule – Jesus Commanded…
“Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.” Matthew 7:12
If we don’t want people disparaging those of our skin color, then we must never do it to others. Why would we? Jesus is teaching us here to ALWAYS put yourself in the shoes of others.
Clearly, the Salvation Army has left the preaching of the Gospel, the Great Commission, and is now engaging in Satan’s attempt to instill hatred between races. The Salvation Army is bringing division instead of wholeness to God’s creation. The original Gospel informs us that ALL men have sinned against our Maker and ALL men are in need of a born again, saving relationship with mankind’s only Savior – who bled on Calvary’s cruel cross, was buried, and raised again from the dead for our justification (Romans 1-6; 1 Corinthians 15:1-4; 1 Timothy 1:15). Jesus Christ is His holy name.
“This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.” 1 Timothy 1:15
How is heart hatred (better known as “racism”) dealt with? With the Gospel, the message of Christ, the only cure for man’s greatest and core dilemma!
As a customer for many years, I am appalled at the Salvation Army’s racist attack on all people of a certain skin tone (white people in this specific case). The Salvation Army foolishly painted a whole segment of God’s creation with an ugly brush – which clearly reveals that your own hearts are full of racism. This was completely unwarranted. Apparently, the Salvation Army projected their own hearts’ darkness on every other person who has their same skin color. Romans 2:1-3 tells on you. In doing this, it seems they have projected their own racist hearts upon others.
FACT: There would be no Salvation Army without white people as their founder happened to have white skin and 80% or more of their donors and buyers are of a light skin color. Yet, the apostate Salvation Army forgot these simply facts in their drive to conform to the communist push to divide the nation, wrongly accusing a whole and entire people group of God’s creation. Communism is clearly Satan’s form of Government – to steal, kill, and destroy the people and the Salvation Army is now pushing it along with the rest of Satan’s kingdom (John 10:10). They clearly followed demonic dictates and we know this 100% because the stated NWO communist agenda is to divide and conquer using race. The Holy Spirit did not lead the Salvation Army to do this – demons did. And that proves that they are the ones in need of repenting (Matthew 7:1-6).
“Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.” Matthew 7:20
This racist underpinning and content of the Salvation Army was previously hiding from the public eye – where they are erroneously assuming and accusing all white skinned people as being racist. But now, by God’s grace, they are exposed publicly as being racists.
Sin is universal. Romans 1-3. God is uncovering the iniquitous underpinnings of the Salvation Army, which is now publicly manifest for all to see. Jesus promised He would bring all our darkness to the light – and He’s doing this to bring us to repentance before it’s too late (Matthew 10:26).
The Salvation Army’s leadership clearly doesn’t understand that the sin of hatred, including racism, is not a skin color. They never once addressed hatred as being of the wicked hearts of all men. It hides behind men of every skin color. No, rather they pinned it all down to just one specific race.
The Salvation Army predicated their whole argument on the false notion which assumes that “ALL white people are racist.” They are apostate and that’s why this is in their company’s employee workbook. Then they attempted to justify this racism they have instead of coming clean. This plainly reveals that those misleading the Salvation Army are following the world instead of Christ. Instead of preaching the original Gospel which clears this all up by the preaching of itself, they now use their position divisively with false accusation. According to the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the reason He came to the earth to die for us all, we are one fallen human race in need of the salvation He alone died to mercifully grant us (John 3:16; Romans 2:11; Galatians 3:24; 1 Timothy 1:15, etc.).
Also, the evidence makes it observable that much of the hatred we see today comes from people other than white skinned people, yet the Salvation Army attacked all people of a certain skin color, isolating this sin of hatred to just one segment of God’s creation. This seems to reveal their own darkness (Matthew 7:1-5; Romans 2:1-3).
“For there is no respect of persons with God.” Romans 2:11
The divine command to “love one another” appears 13 times in the New Testament and applies to ALL men, not just those of any certain skin color.
The Salvation Army has now openly joined the ranks of Satan’s stooges such as the race-baiting devils of our day which include racists like Stephen A. Smith, LeBron James, Je$$e Jackson, and Al $harpton. Have you noticed that the Salvation Army and these other dupes never speak healing but rather division? This alone clearly identifies them as having the fruit of their father the devil (John 8:44; 10:10; 1 Peter 5:8). In contrast there are men and women who are exposing these lies and speaking truth, speaking words of healing such as Jason Whitlock, Larry Elder, Morgan Freeman, Professor Thomas Sowell, Candace Owens, Diamond and Silk, The Hodge Twins, Black Conservative Patriot, etc.
DEAR Present day Salvation Army: The founder of the Salvation Army, William Boothe, is ashamed of your sinful apostasy.
While you call “all white people” to repent, it’s actually YOU who are the ones in need of repentance, hypocrites.
“Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. 3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? 4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? 5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.” Matthew 7:1-5
It’s ungodly, it’s the fruit of an evil heart to come against any whole segment of people based on the color of their skin, foolishly presuming you know the HEARTS of every person of any certain SKIN color. We see no such stereotyping in God’s Word where He addresses ALL men as sinners in need of the one Savior and not any specific segment. This is because we are all of one God and race. We all came from Adam and Eve and then Noah and his sons (Genesis).
God made just one human race and He said He looks at the hearts of men, not the color of their skin (1 Samuel 16:7).
“But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.” 1 Samuel 16:7
OPEN CHALLENGE TO THE SALVATION ARMY: Please produce one Bible verse which states that people born of any certain skin color are hate-filled racists. Also please show where God’s Word tells us that people born of any certain skin tone are wrong, are in sin, must apologize for such. Waiting.
Skin color is of God’s doing, not man’s, and while the sinful Salvation Army pretends to be defending people of one skin tone, they simultaneously and hypocritically attack and wholesale disparage those of another skin tone. The skin color people are born with was God’s choice, not theirs, and so they have nothing to apologize for. And all are to be loved as there is “NO respect of persons with God.” (Romans 2:11)
Furthermore, now that America has come so very far in race relations, you, the Salvation Army, claiming to be Christian, are now causing great injury to such progress. Instead of speaking a word of further healing, you re-introduce injury, you have attacked, you are seeking to divide people by their skin color which the Gospel never does.
America is just ONE nation under God and we are seeing straight through your hypocrisy Salvation Army. You are the ones in need of repenting.
ALL men are under sin and the LORD commands all men to repent, not just those of a certain color of skin:
“Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man’s device. 30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth ALL MEN every where (from every people group) to repent: 31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.” Acts 17:29-31
Included in the evils Jesus detailed and foretold would be transpiring just before His soon return, is racism – ethnos (a people group) attacking another people group.
“For nation (ethnos) shall rise against nation …” Matthew 24:7
By this alone we can conclude that the Salvation Army, while pretending to be Christian, is participating in the evil Christ promised would exist leading up to His return. We are just one human race, and one America. The memes on this page, directly from the Salvation Army’s own employee handbook, makes it clear that the Salvation Army is fulfilling prophecy as they have joined the minions of Satan to attack one segment of God’s creation. Their apostasy is clear in that they are not addressing mankind’s universal sin problem, but instead have chosen to attack just one segment of the human race. Oh, and that part of God’s one human race actually started the Salvation Army and is responsible for the wealth and hard work of it.
Personally, I have more good, godly friends who happen to have darker skin color than anyone should be blessed to have. The truth seems self-evident that not only are white skinned people not privileged above other races, facts seem to reveal that the racism is largely aimed at the white skinned population.
“Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” Acts 4:12
Those presently in leadership at the Salvation Army are in need of repentance and we hope they will hearken to the LORD and do just that.

“I took these drugs for 20+ years and they are dangerous, highly addictive and can do lasting damage. They cure nothing and in many cases cause more long term problems. Depression is absolutely demonic in my experience. GOD is the only answer. Thank you for speaking the truth on this.

Carol Burke writes:
“Romans 8:15 says ‘For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.’ Fear is a spirit that torments man to terrorize him internally, to not permit the fruit of the Holy Spirit to manifest internally to set men free. Thank You Lord! We need not fear as one that is in bondage to his master! I am no longer a slave but a son! Drugs is bondage!”
Mood Drug Madness is the Prophesied Antichrist Sorcery, Witchcraft Wielded Over all Who aren’t Truly In Christ (Revelation 18:23).
“…for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.” Revelation 18:23
Getting Honest is the First Step Toward Total Victory
“The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” Jeremiah 17:9
Jesus taught us that man’s sin comes out of his “desperately wicked” heart (Jer. 17:9; Mark 7:20-23).
The devil and his agents have created a million ways to divert us from stopping our lives, getting honest, taking personal responsibility, humbling ourselves, admitting our sins against God, and repenting.
“When David took his sin to God in Psalm 51 he took 100 percent responsibility! He did not blame Bathsheba and did not seek therapy or medications. He took his heart to God. Repented and pleaded with the Lord to forgive and cleanse him. And the Lord restored to him the joy of his salvation. David was truly broken before God. And the only answer he sought was the Lord.” Karen Cochran
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“There are legitimate diseases and drugs. This is rather broad. You break your leg you go to the doctor don’t you? Same for mental, mood problems, right? I wouldn’t argue against scripture… but I also couldn’t believe you are the judge of every person who is medically assisted. Not every illness is miraculously healed. We live in a fallen world.”
REPLY:
You are using human reasoning so I will not answer this question. Drugging demons and depression is a cheap counterfeit and a mere band aid. It has never nor ever will result in curing the root. Jesus alone can make the heart right, not doctors. Where did Jesus or any of His apostles prescribe a drug, especially for someone’s mental state? Memorize Colossians 2:8-10.
We are complete in Christ who is our Salvation and He did a perfect work and lives to provide what He died to purchase (1 Thessalonians 5:23; Hebrews 4:14-16; 7:24-26). | Christ Lives to Provide What He Died to Purchase
Drugs dull and numb the mind and put a person in an altered state, not to mention that they are also proven to damage the internal organ. This numbing of the mind is of diabolical design in order to lead rebels into eternal damnation.
What does 2 Timothy 1:7 say? Devils have legal right to the minds of every person who has not truly repented and is not currently abiding in Christ. Sin gives an open door, legal right to Satan. Memorize James 4:7. Notice when the demon possessed maniac at Gadara had those demons cast out by Jesus…. what happened? What was his mental state, his mood?
‘And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and IN HIS RIGHT MIND: and they were afraid.’ Mark 5:15
Jesus didn’t prescribe a drug and we are to do what He did and not to do what He didn’t do. In fact He specifically commanded us to do such:
‘And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;’ Mark 16:17
Are those who take mood drugs, drugging demons?
This message in no way declares that every human malady is healed miraculously. This post does absolutely challenge with the Bible the idea of drugging our minds to effect our mood, our spiritual or psychological state. I am judging you as being biblical illiterate (John 7:24; 8:47) and certainly put no trust in your mere human reasoning or mind. Show us all one place in the Bible where Jesus, His apostles, or prophets ever prescribed a drug for a person’s mental, spiritual, psychological state? Waiting…. you gave no Scripture so apparently your trust is in something else other than God’s Word. You would do well to get into the Word.
Are you blessed or cursed?
‘Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.’ Jeremiah 17:5
Luke was a physician. God provides them. Yet the LORD is a Jealous God who is the only Soul-ution for our spirit, soul, and body (2 Chronicles 16:12). Drugging ourselves for our mental, spiritual, psychological state is something the LORD supplies through the fruit of the Spirit – love, joy, peace, etc. (Galatians 5:22-23).
The battle that rages is a spiritual battle. We shall suffer such attacks in the flesh as long as we are on earth and so submitting ourselves afresh in prayer to the LORD as you did is essential in the victory. Memorizing James 4:7 is amazing!!!
To say one needs a drug for his mood is to say Jesus didn’t do a complete work (2 Timothy 1:7). WHAT are the 9 dimensions of the ‘fruit of the Spirit’ which are born and alive in every truly abiding saint of Christ? (See Galatians 5:22-23.) There is no such thing as a disciple of Jesus, blessed with the fruit of the Holy Spirit – love, joy, peace – that takes a drug for their mood. They don’t need such a cheap demonic counterfeit.
Psalm 51 – after we seek the LORD in true repentance, He cleanses us, and restores unto us ‘the joy of thy salvation’ which is a whole, complete salvation – spirit, soul, mind, body (1 Thessalonians 5:23).
So if a Christian is taking a mood drug, are they trusting Christ or the drug?
‘And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to the LORD, but to the physicians.’ 2 Chronicles 16:12
So, will we trust the Great Physician or the worlds physicians?
The sin of unbelief (Hebrews 3-4).
‘How oft did they provoke him in the wilderness, and grieve him in the desert! 41 Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and LIMITED THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL. 42 They remembered not his hand, nor the day when he delivered them from the enemy.’ Psalms 78:40-42
There are so very many people who claim to be Christ’s yet they don’t listen to Christ – His written Word. No, they have no time to revel in ‘ALL things that pertain to life and godliness’ found in the ‘exceeding great and precious promises’ of the Word of God (2 Peter 1:3-4). Yet, these same people do spend endless energy and time listening to and obeying this fallen world’s mere human ‘experts.’ Sad. Telling. Bad fruit. Spiritual adultery. Hell awaits.
‘Thou shalt have no other gods before me.’ Exodus 20:3
Limiting God is a sin. Unbelief. ‘Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and LIMITED THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL’ (Psalms 78:41).
Are we forgetting the benefits the LORD provided in His perfect salvation?
‘Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:’ Psalms 103:2
We live in a drug-crazed, drug-dependent world. Isn’t using a drug for our mental, psychological, and spiritual state not an indictment upon our glorious LORD God who gave His only begotten Son for our redemption, our wholeness, our salvation? When He saves us we are born again and the divine Holy Spirit dwells in us, His temples (1 Corinthians 3:16). We are new creatures in Christ and yet by gullibly allowing a mere man to prescribe a drug, we forfeit the blessing of God (2 Corinthians 5:17-18). Repentance needed for ‘an evil heart of unbelief’ (Hebrews 3:12-15). God doesn’t band aid things, He heals and makes whole to the root. Dare we accuse the Almighty of shorting us, of the sacrifice of His Son not being enough, not providing a complete salvation?
“Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.” Jeremiah 17:14
A mood drug is a band aid for the unrepentant – not the divine solution.
Got depression? Are you seeking the LORD in true repentance whereby He will grant you great joy? (Psalms 51; 2 Timothy 1:7)
Sin is the Root of all of Man’s Problems: Drugs are Never the Solution
Depression is merely the result of sin, of living in sin. Period. No stupid medicine has or ever will solve such. Only Jesus can and did solve man’s sin dilemma. Surrendering in repentant to the Savior is sin’s solution and all the evil it brings such as depression (Romans 6:23).
“Die to self! My depression left once I fully surrendered to the Lord my wicked self! Depression is all the result of you trying to do it in your own strength! And being stuck in self! Humbly surrender to God and He will lift you up out of the horrible pit (which is what depression is), the miry clay (despair) and set your feet upon the rock of Jesus! Then He will put a new song in your heart! A song of praise and thanksgiving to the Lord! (Psalm 40:2-3). The joy of the Lord will be your strength! (Nehemiah 8:10). Alleluia!” Karen Cochran
David had sinned grossly. He cried out to the LORD in sincere repentance. What happened that restored ‘the JOY of thy salvation’ to this man after God’s own heart? Can anyone find a mood drug in this divine prescription or anywhere in God’s Word?
‘Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. 9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities. 10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. 11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. 12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.’ Psalms 51:8-12
Upon authentic repentance, David was restored to the joy of the LORD and upheld, uplifted by the Holy Spirit of God.
Those who refuse to truly repent and lay down their lives in this fleeting world are subjected and relegated to dependence on the world’s cheap substitutes which never get to the root of the issue but rather only mask it with a band aid. Until they see this for the sin it is, the sin of unbelief – out of ‘an evil heart of unbelief’ -they shall remain unstable, unsound, and in bondage to a drug (Hebrews 3:12-15).
THOSE WHO FOLLOW JESUS DON’T NEED AN ANTIDEPRESSANT BECAUSE THEY ARE FULL OF THE JOY OF THE LORD.
‘For the joy of the LORD is your strength.’ Nehemiah 8:10
The true born again disciple of Jesus, abiding daily in Him, is full of His divine ‘Love, JOY, peace…’ (Galatians 5:22-23) Such an authentic follower of Jesus doesn’t walk in ‘the counsel of the ungodly’ but rather in the counsel, the Word of God ‘and in his law doth he meditate day and night’ (Psalms 1). The joy of the LORD is our strength and abides and remains in His abiding disciples – so they have need of nothing, no counterfeit, no cheap substitute for what God provides!
‘These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.’ John 15:11
Never Underestimate the Power of Jesus!
As you read this fascinating story of maniacal demon possession, to solve this problem, ask what solution Jesus provided. Did the Son of God prescribe a drug, send someone to the doctor, or cast out the devils?
“And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes. And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him. And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones. But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not. For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit. And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many. And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country. Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding. And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them. And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea. And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done. And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid. And they that saw it told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine. And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts. And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him. Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee. And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel.” Mark 5:1-20
Here was a demon possessed maniac who was so overcome by the devil that he terrorized the whole town of Gadara, cried aloud, stripped himself, cut himself, and broke the chains that held him bound – until Jesus broke his chain! He was then off the chain – completely set free and “sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind” (Mk. 5:15).
The power of God changed this man’s life as it is changing lives today around the world. Jesus set this bound soul free from all those devils that had taken residence inside him and gave this man a sound mind! God be praised! God will take off the chain that binds every soul that hears and obeys His Gospel.
This once demon possessed maniacal man was now restored by Heaven’s King who came “to seek and to save that which was lost.” (Luke 19:10).
“The thief (Satan) cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” John 10:10
WHEN we see humanity being stolen from, robbed, killed, destroyed, through sin and Satan, we must see through the eyes of Jesus, His Word.
“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
EVERY person we deal with, is a precious soul Jesus created and died for. Their outer shell might be very ugly, destroyed, nasty…. yet they are an eternal soul Jesus died and was raised again to save.
Father, please help us see Your truth, reality via Your kingdom eyes. Open our eyes that we might see as You see. In Jesus’ name LORD.
How did our LORD deal with the maniac at Gadara? He did not condemn, He cured!
Jesus came to save, to set men free from sin and Satan! We are His hands and feet in the earth!
God is Greater than all Falsehood
“Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God. For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar…” Romans 3:3-4
While in a retail location (car dealership) I was quickened by the Spirit to minister to a certain man in his 20’s. As I moved toward him, I saw what looked like an open Bible on his work station desk so I asked about it and he said “No, this is a Quran.” I said “Oh okay” and never slowed down or broke stride (by God’s grace) to worry about what diversionary tactic the enemy was using against this precious soul. So, immediately, with a hand of compassion on his shoulder, looked him in the eye and began to lovingly tell Him how much Jesus loved Him and died for his sins and that Christ was the only Person in history who foretold His own death, burial, and resurrection, and then accomplished it all, rising from the dead after dying on that cross on Calvary’s hill. I told him how that He is alive right now and forevermore to save to the uttermost! I shared with this man that only Jesus Christ bares nailed-scarred hands and feet to prove He is the very Son of God and paid the only price that propitiates (atones) for our sins, satisfying the claims of the Father’s justice. By this point this man’s eyes were filled with tears. The Holy Spirit was touching his searching heart which can never be filled or satisfied by anything but Christ, the Prince of peace, whose love and truth is communicated in and through His Word.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.” John 3:16-17
The tears in this man’s eyes, emanating from his broken soul, can be a reminder to our understanding that God made all souls and that He can and will find and touch anyone He chooses through His Word, Spirit, and servants! (See Ezek. 18:4.) Never believe a lie or system of lies to be greater than the power of your God! The Jehovah Witness, Mormon, Islamic, Catholic religions are merely man-made religions and unlike the Gospel, have no power to redeem! The divine Person of the Holy Ghost is only behind and confirming the true Gospel with signs following, the greatest sign being the new birth in the hearts of men! (See Mk. 16:15-20; Jn. 3:3, 7; Tit. 3:5-6.) Only the Person and Gospel of Jesus Christ transforms lives completely – from the inside out! Only God can grant the new birth!
Could there possibly be any message in the world greater or more powerful than the one given by the One who made all things?
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” Romans 1:16
“Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?” Jeremiah 23:29
Only God can truly change a life from the inside out! Only Jesus can turn a heart of stone into a heart of flesh! (See Ezek. 36:25-27.) The Gospel is superior to any other system of religion. Nothing compares to the glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ that has saved and sanctified millions of precious souls the world over and is still marching on across the nations, one heart at a time. Fear not – “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world” (1 Jn. 4:4). Saints, let us simply and obediently communicate God’s truth in love and watch Jesus work to save! – “I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase” (1 Cor. 3:6). He has promised to bless as you obey!
Jesus Never Fails!
Didn’t Jesus reach into your own hardened and wretched soul, interrupting your life of sin and save you?! If so, is He not able to do the same in others? Didn’t He tell us that His infinitely mighty arm is not shorted or hindered and that His ear is not closed and that He is able to save to the uttermost? (See Isa. 59:1-2; Heb. 7:24-26.) Let’s look at these words in Hebrews 7 – makes me want to shout with joy at the depth of divine revelation of His love and grace evident in this passage:
“But this man (Jesus), because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens.” Hebrews 7:24-26
Christ came in the volume of the book of which it is written to break the chains of sin and Satan and lies!
“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, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.” Luke 4:18
Why Did Jesus Come?
“This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.” 1 Timothy 1:15
“For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.” 1 John 3:8
There is only ONE Glorious Gospel Revealing One Unique Savior!
“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake. For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.” 2 Corinthians 4:3-7
The glorious Gospel of Jesus can go into the depths of the soul, convict, draw and save! Heavenly Father please forgive our unbelief and increase our faith, in Jesus’ name!
I must say that I was pleasantly surprised at the way Jesus touched the heart of this searching soul who was looking at someone else other than to the LORD for answers. His understanding had been diverted. My surprised response perhaps underscores the unbelief in my heart. God forgive me for counting the lies of Satan greater than the stone-crushing, devil-exterminating power of God’s eternal truth (Jer. 23:29). Never prejudge – just obey because “to obey is better than sacrifice” (1 Sam. 15:22). Always know that God’s Word never returns to Him void but always accomplishes that which He desires (Isa. 55:11).
In this late hour Christ is opening eyes and shattering the chains of darkness that bind so many – no matter what flavor of deception the enemy has used to blind them. The Holy Spirit and Word of God will break through to those who choose to have ears to hear. O LORD let the Gospel be heard from those whom He has found and redeemed – “Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy” (Ps. 107:2). Father please open doors for the ministry of Your Word. Open hearts and redeem souls Jesus! Our LORD Jesus came “To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me” (Acts 26:18).
JESUS came to make captives free. SATAN’s agents seek to put you in bondage! (Luke 4:18; John 10:10; Galatians 2:4-5; 5:1)
As the demon-possessed maniac at Gadara experienced, to those who hear, repent, and believe, Christ, the power of God, is the chain–breaking, shackle-shattering Savior and LORD!
“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.” 1 Corinthians 1:18
“Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish: To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life.” 2 Corinthians 2:14-16
As we are blessed to communicate God’s love and Word, He is going to deliver souls and take people off the chain the enemy has bound them with!
“It is a spiritual issue. Was in my room reading then started getting all these thoughts to kill myself. It started getting louder I knew this was a demonic attack and I was being tested! I thought I was losing my mind but Jesus came through and protected me! Showed me what he was trying to show me through a fiery trial. It’s all spiritual! I’ve never had thoughts like that in my entire life. No explanation. Praise Jesus!!” Nicole
Do you think that if some believer had gotten to this searching man first and gave him a Bible and communicated the Gospel, that it would have prevented the deception of a foreign religion from encroaching upon his precious soul?
“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.” Mark 16:15-20
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“So what are you saying people shouldn’t take antidepressants when they have a lack of serotonin in their brain which is why you take antidepressants?”
REPLY:
Is that the real answer? WHO gave that diagnosis? WHERE is our trust? Is GOD not enough to heal that supposed ailment if it’s true in the first place? Remember, doctors have to come up with a “diagnosis” in order to prescribe a drug. That’s how they make their money.
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“Have you ever suffered with a mental illness?”
REPLY:
Is it real? Is the issue material or spiritual? That’s where so many have bought the lie from the world’s doctors instead of going to the Word of God. It’s time to cease making excuse, repent, get into the Word and obey God. HE alone is our Salvation and will bring perfect wholeness just as we see Him doing in the Gospels (1 Thessalonians 5:23). This is a spiritual issue and James 4:7 gives the divine solution to shutting Satan out:
“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” James 4:7
PRAYER: Glorious LORD Jesus, please forgive my evil heart of unbelief and grant my heart a fresh start this moment! I repent now of all the idolatry, and spiritual adultery, evil unbelief, and how I’ve not trusted You but rather mere men. Thank You for Your infinite power and desire to redeem men and thank You for finding and saving me dear LORD. I love You LORD Jesus and thank You so much that You had no beginning and have no end and have always been and ever live to make intercession for the souls of men who will come to You for Your salvation which includes their spirit, soul, and body. Your salvation is complete and provides for the whole person of those You redeem. Please make me whole – spirit, soul, and body. Grant a sound heart and sound mind and body. As Your people fervently await Your soon return, please open up doors to joyfully communicate Your eternal Gospel to others! In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Abiding
Bride of Heaven vs Harlot from Hell [podcast]
How Do We Know, Right Now, Who will be Seated at the at the Table, at the Great Supper of the Lamb? (Matthew 22; Revelation 19)
The remnant, those who will be present at the Great Supper of the Lamb in Heaven, are ALREADY feasting at the banqueting table of His Word. All others whom Jesus has saved in the past, are not fueled or flourishing but are rather famishing, fainting, and falling away.
The “little flock” of Christ desires to be with Him both now and forever, not just forever (Luke 12:32). They’ve been born again and present “abide” in/with the Savior (John 15:1-6).
No good man wants an arrangement but rather a marriage with a virtuous, faithful wife. He rightly desires a beloved wife in holy matrimony, not a whore to shack up with! Those who espouse OSAS are spiritual adulterers, whore mongers. They want a quick fix, an illicit affair that requires no commitment, carries no requirements.
The God fearing wife has set aside all else to serve her husband (1 Peter 3:1-7). She is not sidetracked nor does she waiver in her love and duty to her man. And this is what the true bride of Christ is doing today – setting aside the distractions and pursuits of this fleeting world and are seated at the feet of Jesus, waiting upon Him (1 John 2:14-17).
Her life is all about Him, not herself.
The heart of a true under shepherd is heard in these words from Christ’s apostle Paul: “I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.”
“For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. 3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.” 2 Corinthians 11:2-4
It’s the adulterous heart, the heart where Jesus is not truly the “first love,” the highest priority, that migrates to this sin-justifying system of theology called “eternal security” (Revelation 2:4-5). Jesus’ teaching concerning the five foolish virgins who were espoused to the Bridegroom (Jesus), and were later shut out of His bridal chamber, is clear proof that all who begin with Christ will not be with Him eternally (Matthew 25:1-13). Jesus invented the term “fall away” and told us that some who initially believe will later “fall away”—they will not “endure to the end” with Him (Luke 8:12-13; Matthew 10:22; 24:13). So, someone’s lying and it’s not the Son of God. Why would He use such words as “fall away” if these things weren’t possible, if it weren’t essential to “endure to the end” to be “saved”?
Paul says we, the saints of Christ on earth, are “espoused” to Christ the Bridegroom – engaged, not married (2 Corinthians 11:2-4).
With no exception, ALL wise virgin believers are in the Word daily. They commune with the Bridegroom and He fills them daily with His heavenly virtue, oil (Matthew 25:1-13).
Just because one is “espoused” to Jesus, that is, engaged to the Bridegroom of Heaven, doesn’t mean they will ultimately be married to Him as is proven in Christ’s parable of the 10 virgins where only 5 made it into the eternal bridal chamber with the bridegroom (Matthew 25:1-13). They other 5 were shut out for treating the engagement/espousal as a mere arrangement.
The most elaborate, the most grandiose dinner awaits the saints of Christ! Words cannot possibly express the grandeur of Christ’s welcoming dinner…. a celebration to end all others – the beginning, the inaugural celebration of eternity with Christ and His saints of all ages.
The foolish virgins are making excuse for sins (Proverbs 28:13a. The wise virgins are hastening to repentance (Matthew 25:1-13; Ephesians 5:25-27; 1 John 3:3; Revelation 19:7-10).
“Revelation 19:7-9: We are to ‘bear the image of the heavenly.’ (1 Cor 15:49).Our sinful nature crucified, sanctified, dead and buried, and then we take on the heavenly glorified nature of Christ! Our whole spirit, soul and body is being transformed more and more into the image of Jesus! (1 Thesolonians 5:23). We must be fully clothed in righteousness and holiness to enter the marriage supper of the Lamb! This is the only way to be accounted worthy! And not have our names blotted out of the book of life.” Karen Cochran
“Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour.” Proverbs 14:9
Mocking at sin relates to any lax or crass attitude toward what He that is Holy declares to be sin – which separates men from God. There’s is divine grace and favor on all who are honest, repent, and forsake sin.
“Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and HIS WIFE HATH MADE HERSELF READY. 8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. 9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.” Revelation 19:7-9
WHAT’s the use of talking about end times and the events of these final days if we aren’t even going to be “READY” when Jesus does return?
“Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.” Luke 12:40
Read the passage below as to exactly, specifically what Bride Jesus will return for and please explain how a person who genuinely got saved and now is living in sin is going to be Christ’s Bride eternally:
“Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.” Ephesians 5:25-27
“Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, 12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? 13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. 14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.” 2 Peter 3:12-13
As the husband and wife require their intimate personal time together for relations, so the bride of Christ must have her individual, set apart time of intimacy with the Bridegroom, Jesus. This is biblical imagery (Matthew 25:1-13; Ephesians 5:25-30; Revelation 19:7-9).
Christ’s bride that He will soon return for is holy and holy means set apart. Christ’s Heaven-bound disciples are known by their fervent loyalty to their Master, Jesus. Sweet fellowship with Christ is at the cornerstone of their schedule. The LORD is their undisputed priority. Having a daily, set apart time with Christ is essential of the infusion of Heaven’s nutrient-rich substance, to remaining in an abiding relationship with the Bridegroom (Psalms 27:4, 8; Matthew 5:6, etc.).
Drinking from the well of Heaven daily is the mainstay duty and practice of every true wise virgin believer (Matthew 25:1-13). Their relationship with their Bridegroom is their most important occupation. He’s absolutely first. Jesus is not a second class citizen in their life (Revelation 2:4-5).
Do we remember how Paul spoke of a man and wife coming together and how if they don’t, if they neglect intimacy, they will be tempted to migrate to someone else other than their mate? (1 Corinthians 7:1-5)
“Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. 2 Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband. 3 Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband. 4 The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife. 5 Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.” 1 Corinthians 7:1-5
Are we, are you rendering “due benevolence” to your LORD and Savior, the Bridegroom of Heaven? If not, you are being drawn away to another lover, a false god, an altar of idol worship.
You are Cordially Invited to this Great Supper of and with the Lamb of God
“And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.” Revelation 22:17

Mexico needs Missionaries [podcast]
GOD is our Maker and Redeemer and He knows where He has and wants each of His children to be—where you already are or otherwise. The LORD is in control (Psalms 24:1).
“The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.” Psalm 37:23
Last week Jesus saved this beloved woman, Katherine! See more on that salvation story here.
Recently I commented under a Mexico video…. which received nearly 100 likes to date….
After leaving the USA and now living in Mexico, I began to see just how un-free and vulturous it was there (the greed-driven gov’t mainly. America is a corporation). This is simply my personal opinion: You will never know you are not free, till you leave.
Thank you for pausing to pray for the people of Mexico.
TODAY: Was invited to a luncheon with a group of amazing expats from all over the world. Beautiful ranch and land outside of town.
View looking out from the ranch. (below)
Here’s beloved Martha who recently received ministry—as a direct result of your prayer and support.
The perks of Mexico begin with our wonderful Creator and the people, places, and plates of food He has on this part of HIS earth (Psalms 24:1).
WE the body of Christ, are a separate entity from the world (2 Corinthians 6:14-18). We are here on earth for but a bit more time—saved and sent to do Christ’s Great Commission (Matthew 9:35-38; 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-20; John 4:34-38). Jesus foretold that these final days before His return would be tumultuous (Matthew 24; Luke 21), and to “Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me” (John 14:1).
TODAY: Another 1,500 JESUS tracts in Spanish were picked up from the printers. | The JESUS tract.
“That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.” John 1:9
EACH WEEK a strong, loving message from the Word of God is sent out to to dozens of beloved souls here in Mexico via text. I have connected in person with each one of them, ministering God’s Word to each soul. Some are saved, some not. Just sent a message out tonight and am receiving responses as usual, including this one below from a beloved man name Julio who is not yet saved. Please lift him in prayer.
Below are messages from two men here in Mexico who have been ministered to and are continuing to receive God’s Word weekly:
“I am interested in knowing God and reading the Bible.” Julio
“Hi Todd. Greetings. Thanks for the Bible messages.” Carlos
This response from Julio is VERY common here in Mexico. I just texted Julio the Born Again book PDF. Boom.
If you want your life to count for the LORD, to the highest degree of glory and fruitfulness to Jesus, you may wish to stop your life today and ask the LORD to prepare and place you where it best eternally glorifies Him (John 15).
Take a look at the exciting Mission Mexico posts here
Thank you for praying for the precious people of beautiful Mexico.
“Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.” Psalms 2:8
DO we really think it’s God’s will to have millions of His people in the USA, further drowning in the misery, embellishing, intoxicating themselves with more trinkets, being unfruitful, while the beloved people of Mexico go un-reached? I don’t. Stop. Ask God to break and strip and prepare you and place you exactly where HE wants you ministering on HIS planet.
“But I don’t know Spanish.” Reply: Can you smile with the joy and love and peace of God handing out JESUS tracts in Spanish and simply say “Cristo reina para siempre”? Or “Cristo te ama”? Anyone who desires to, can. See link below.
Are you ready to pray that God put you on HIS Great Commission adventure?
On another point of motivation….. some are saying “The new American dream is to leave America.” Since moving to Mexico, a truly free country, I have never been happier personally.
I wonder what it’s going to take for some. Will they want to leave once the nukes begin landing in America? How many more assassinated by the government people will it take? How many more cities must burn? How many more criminals in government….
People here and in so many parts of the world are so kind and content. They walk around whistling, singing etc.
“And around here in the USA many don’t want to receive the Good News. Very closed up and some too religious.” Anita
Move to a country that has family values such as any Latin American country. Nearly EVERY child, kid, boy, girl, is meek, humble, obedient to their parents, respectful, etc. Amazing. America is over.
I there a time to move on?
“And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet. 15 Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.” Matthew 10:14-15
How did our families get to America? They got there by leaving their homelands due to apostasy from what is right, wicked governments which resulted in dire times financially, etc.
Communicating The Gospel in Spanish
IF He is calling you, only if. IF you answer the call of God and go to a foreign land to minister, and have the adventure of your life! ….. this ministry outreach will supply at least your first round of JESUS tracts in the language needed.
*** Are you asking God to prepare and place you on HIS planet where HE wants you, to do HIS will, work, powerfully? Time is short!
IF you don’t desire to see others saved, you are in need of salvation.
Matthew 12:30 – When you are truly with Jesus, you exist to serve Him and others, not self.
WHEN our lives are crucified with Christ we are preoccupied no longer with self but rather the Savior and others! This is “the mind (disposition) of Christ” as seen in Philippians 2:3-5.
AS you get out of your own world and into the world of others—to serve them as unto the LORD….. you will not continue to stagnate and be miserable. Chasing trinkets has and never will result in anything good. Seeking Christ and living as He did—to serve the Father and people—is the guarantee of His resurrection blessings exploding and abiding in your personal life. As you die daily, Christ raises you upward and into His harvest fields which are “white already to harvest.”
“Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. 35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. 36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. 37 And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth. 38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.” John 4:34-38
“They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. 6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves (harvest) with him.” Psalms 126:5-6
“Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. 5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:” Philippians 2:3-5
Is today the day we SHUT UP AND DIE?
“For he that is dead is freed from sin.” Romans 6:7
Would you like to say the above verse 3 times prayerfully right now?
One will never be “freed” till he chooses to die.
The Crucified Life always produces the fruit of serving God and others, not the god of self. Dethrone yourself now.
Anyone not crucified with Christ, is not serving Him.
“I have just begun to realize that we must love Him but we also must know and believe He loves us! According to 1 John 4:16, ‘And we have known and believed the love that God hath towards us. ‘His love towards us should permeate our whole being. Once it does we not only know He loves us but we believe it. And this is how we love our neighbor as ourselves (Matthew 22:39). …. You will never have more of Jesus until you lay your own life at the cross and die! The cross life will completely transform you and then you will know and embrace who you truly are in Jesus!” Karen Cochran
After leaving the USA and now living in Mexico, I began to see just how un-free and vulturous it was there. You will never know you are not free, till you leave.
One man responded to this above comment of mine.
“I’ve lived outside the US as well, and traveled extensively. Interesting you make a blanket statement about the freedoms you have versus living in America. Give us some specifics. List five ways you are specifically more free where you are than when you lived in the US.” Rob
REPLY:
Well first off, this was a personal comment and do we not all have liberty to view things as we see fit? Yes. Traveling to a country and living there, are two completely different things. Unless you live somewhere, you don’t know. Nearly no one here in Mexico is road raging, no one is uptight, no one or nearly no one is getting a traffic ticket, no one’s door is being kicked down by a swat team at 4AM for the crime of praying at an abortion clinic that babies would not be mu.rdered…….. The house, the casa in Mexico is sacred. In general the government will not mess with the sovereign dwelling place of the family….. no one here is being over taxed, no one here is being charged 80% child support when the law says 20%, the real estate tax is so low it’s laughable compared to the USA, oh and how about the hospital visits and meds? Dirt cheap. One American who lives here told me recently that he got sick and so his doctor, whose phone number he has, came to his home and treated him and it was $70. He said he also has his dentist’s phone number, etc. Taxes, especially gross over taxing as is the case in the USA, is debt slavery and it’s not decreasing. How does any of this (a mere sampling) equal freedom? I wonder how it’s true freedom when 80% of Americans cannot or can barely cover their basic costs per month. Have you seen all the videos where Americans are living in their vehicles and storage units due to not being able to afford rent? Those videos are abundandant on youtube. This is not even to mention the increase in homelessness, or people living on the streets.
