Persecuted for Believing God is Not Confused about His Real Word!
—————————
BREAKING: The violent bashing continues…. NIV defenders attacking me because I believe God preserved His Word in the King James Bible – just as He promised (Psalms 12:6-7).
Recently, an enraged “pastor” messaged me seeking to argue Bible versions… which he brought up, not me. He initiated the conversation and got real frustrated when I simply, kindly asked him to explain why Matthew 17:21 is removed, why Romans 8:1 is chopped in half, and why the BLOOD of Jesus was removed from Colossians 1:14. He didn’t like the questions and so began attacking me and saying I will be separated with the goats and sent to hell. Who’s condemning who? He’s not a man of truth. Wow, who’s the Bible basher now?
“For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.” 1 Corinthians 14:33
There’s no end to the frauds who defend this pagan wolf CS Lewis. Here’s my recent reply to one such heretic:
“Man it’s time for you to repent sinner and get into God’s Word for yourself (2 Timothy 2:15). You are biblically illiterate and clueless. Your lame defense of a known false teacher, a pagan catholic named CS Lewis, and your refusal to uphold God’s written Word as the final divine authority, is clear proof that you are not saved (John 8:47; 2 Tim 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:19-21”
Explain this: “I have the deepest respect for Pagan myths, still more for myths in the Holy Scriptures” (PP, p.71). CS Lewis”
Recently, during a conversation, as I was confronting demonic heretic C.S. Lewis, the man who was being corrected, in the middle of our conversation, asked “Are you a King James only” person? He said “You come across as a King James person.” I lovingly affirmed boldly that “yes I do exclusively read the the King James Bible and for good reason.” Then I attempted to get right back to the original topic this man and I were discussing. He refused to get off the Bible version topic and proceeded to disdain me for not gullibly believing that all “bibles” are God’s Word. HE is the one who not only initiated this topic of discussion yet acting as if KJBO …… I did nothing in word or spirit to condemn him but only sought to give the answer of biblical truth on that matter…. yet he condemns me ….. I reminded him that I was merely answering the questions HE asked me.
A “Bible college” graduate many times has stated to me fatalistically and as if it’s normal and okay that “the body of Christ is so fragmented.” Yet there’s no Scripture that says that such is God’s will but rather against His stated will (Psalms 133:1; 1 Corinthians 12; Ephesians 4:3, etc.). And, where there is confusion, where is that coming from? It’s coming from the lies of the evil one who from the beginning has changed God’s words to deceive mankind and this is exactly the definition of what he’s done by having the fake news “bibles” created.
While condemning me, acting like I was the bad guy for believing God’s Word for the English people is the KJB, this guy was ousting me from fellowship. So who’s bashing who? Wow! I did nothing to condemn him in attitude, tone, or content. T’was simply answering his inquiry. he didn’t like what was being stated so proceeded to attack (John 3:19-21). is This not even more evidence of satan working in the lives of those who foolishly use and defend his counterfeit “bibles”?
Seems to me that more pertinent than the KJBO (King James Bible Only) terminology perhaps would be KJBB = King James Bible Bashers! This group seems to be the ones perpetrating the violence.
Is there good reason to believe God gave us only 1 Bible? Yes! Does that make us freaks OR are those making such accusations pawns of the evils one?
Colossians 1:14 is the fire I like to hold their feet to. I told this man that he is defending “bibles” that have removed the very blood he claims to be washed in and asked him if he supposed himself to be a man of truth, of holy conviction.
Either we have a perfect Bible or we don’t and if not God lied to us (Psalms 12:6-7). The new version “bibles” are a mockery of God. Who’s behind them? Who was it that started all of this questioning of and adding to God’s words? (Genesis 2:17 > 3:4 and 3:1)
The basher continually claimed that all these errors meant nothing concerning our salvation. To this I replied by quoting 2 John 9, which states “Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth (continues) not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth (continues) in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.” (2 John 9)
Notice that the man mentioned above told me “You come across as a King James person.” What does that really mean? Well, does it not mean that King James Bible believers are resolute in their faith, non-compromising, men of truth? Yes, and that those who read the false “bibles” are weak, unbelieving, and compromising. Howbeit, some who read those counterfeit “bibles” are innocently misled.
Is God confused about which Bible He gave us? (1 Corinthians 14:33)
Would the “Holy, holy, holy” God of all perfection possibly sanction a “bible” His own enemy/enemies corrupted? (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8)
You will be attacked and ostracized for believing that God gave kept His own promise to give us His Word in our own language and it can only be the King James Bible and could not possibly be the perverted versions which come from the perverted manuscripts.
When you hear someone say things like “a better translation would be”, you know you are dealing with a person who does not fear the LORD, is arrogantly believing he is wiser than God, and is not trusting that the LORD kept His promise to preserve His Word (Psalms 12:6-7).
The World has been Given the Knowledge of God through His Written Word and any Corruption of that Word is from Satan
“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for DOCTRINE, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:” 2 Timothy 3:16
So if God gave us His Word to get our “doctrine” from, then we should ask which Bible is truly God’s Word?
ANYONE else ever been bashed, persecuted by a defender of Satan’s false “bibles”?
This same man who condemned me for daring to stick with the real Word of God and reject Satan’s counterfeits told me that C.S. Lewis really opened the eyes of God’s people with his writings. More proof he is in darkness (John 3:19-21). He was emphatically acting as if we needed C.S. Lewis to know the real truth. Laughable! My instant reply was a resolute: “C.S. Lewis added nothing to Holy Scripture and what Scripture reveals which God says is ‘ALLLLLL things’ we would ever need in this life which ‘pertain unto life and godliness.'” (2 Peter 1:3-4)
This man is in the damnable state of unbelief and so is any sinful soul who puts any mere man’s writings or “ministry” above God’s Word!
WHAT happens is that when a person doesn’t take GOD at His own Word, where He tells us “all” and more we will ever need to know in this life IN HIS WRITTEN WORD, that person will be prey for the slick, heretical writers of old and now! (2 Peter 1:3-4) C.S. Lewis was one such demonic snake and so many today quote this wolf as if he were of God! Apostasy!
God gave us all we would ever need concerning knowing him right in His Word saints!
HOW could a “bible” that removes the BLOOD of Jesus from Colossians 1:14 possibly be God’s Word?
WHY would we believe a “bible” is God’s Word that chopped Romans 8:1 in half?
WHO would believe a “bible” is God’s true Word that completely removed Jesus’ words in Matthew 17:21?
UNLESS you can prove that God’s Word, the very words of our Maker, are not important, I will never cease to expose the LORD’s arch enemies for perverting HIS Word! The highest eternal price of judgment is attached to changing God’s Word. Those who tamper with the contents of God’s Word, are promised the plagues of the book of Revelation which includes the lake of fire.
“For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: 19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, 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 22:18-19
To underscore the essential place God’s Word plays in the divine economy, 2 Peter 1:12-21 informs us that the written Word, the Holy Scriptures, carry gr eater divine authentication than the literal audible voice of the Father. Let the reader be quickened to pour prayerfully over this passage.
Those who defend God’s Word are coming against the one who is the ultimate author of all perversions and questioning of God’s Word – Satan (Genesis 2:17; 3:1-4, etc.).
The man mentioned earlier asked me if I was King James only. Then he proceeded to take me to task and tell me that he and his wife had been to Bible College in his wife new Greek and Hebrew. I asked him what that had to do with anything and if he knew that Hebrew and Greek were dead languages. I asked him if God gave us HIS Word in our own language as He promised to do in Psalms 12:6-7. He didn’t use any Scripture but rather he used much human reasoning to justify, to crassly overlook the gross atrocities and corruptions of God’s Word discounting that God’s word even matters. He revealed himself to be anything but a man of truth and holy conviction.
INSTEAD of boasting of going to seminary or Bible college, they should be denouncing it!
A lot of people think you are going to go away or fade back when they say “oh I’ve been to seminary/Bible college.” Well, I have been to 2 of them and had to denounce it all just like the apostle Paul did. Read Philippians 3. Oh, and those who attempt to lord if over you like to throw in how they have studied Greek and Hebrew. Really? Pull their rug by asking them if they speak or write Hebrew or Greek? Game over! The Lure and Peril of Titles and Taintings!
Apostasy!
Jesus told us that “EVERY word of God” fully matters and that the Word of God is exactly where we get, discover, where we receive, we learn the knowledge of God.
“But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.” Matthew 4:4
“And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.” Luke 4:4
“EVERY WORD OF GOD is pure: he is a shield (protector) unto them that put their trust in him.” Proverbs 30:5
In this verse above, “pure” means purified, tried, perfectly stated and placed.
“Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.” John 5:39
The Root
WHAT’s the real issue? Am I the wicked one for believing God kept His promise to preserve His Word for us? (Psalms 12:6-7) OR, are the dissenters backslidden and lukewarm and therefore refuse to “endure sound doctrine”? (2 Timothy 4:2-4)
Is the real issue that KJBO folks are crazy for believing God actually kept His promise to the English speaking people which is fulfilled in the King James Bible? OR, are the attackers who seek to polarize the unsuspecting doing the work of the devil – which is to change, question, and pervert God’s words?
“For ye have perverted the words of the living God.” Jeremiah 23:36
DID or DID NOT God give us His Word in our language? Yes He did, just as He promised in Psalms 12:6-7.
“The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. 7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.” Psalms 12:6-7
FLASH POINT: Most books whose covers have words “Holy Bible” on them are not God’s Word, never were, and anything but holy.
IF you believe the demonic notion that somehow God Almighty dropped the ball and didn’t follow all the way through with giving this generation His very Word, you are a Bible agnostic. You are calling God a liar (Psalms 12:6-7). Bible Agnostics Exposed
Please tell us why you insist upon defending the works of Satan in the name of the LORD? How can you sit there and defend that which removes the very blood of Christ you claim to be washed in? Colossians 1:14
To say this matter of the very words of God doesn’t matter is to clearly prove you are not right with God.
SO MANY people who are opening their ignorant mouths about topics they have no clue about which God’s Word tell us is folly, foolishness – Proverbs 18:13). Some are seminarian graduates who claim to have done “many years of research” and don’t know the first thing about this topic of the real and the many counterfeit “bibles.” UNREAL!
SATAN, the original perverter of God’s Word (Genesis 2:17; 3:1, 4) has filled the professing apostate modern church world fake “bibles.” New “bibles” is absolute apostasy. God’s Word was already perfect in the King James Bible and a fulfillment of the prophecy of Psalms 12:6-7. CLUE: 99% of the dupes many call “pastor” do not use the King James Bible but rather some cheap substitute. There it is – the recipe for apostasy.
ATTENTION: If you haven’t compared the following 4 verses between the KJB and at least one of the modern “bibles”, please don’t shoot your mouth off lest you be rebuked openly and severely:
Please explain why the new “bible” you are reading and defending ….
1. Removed the words of Jesus in Matthew 17:21 (because Satan didn’t want today’s believers to know how to cast him out!)…
2. Romans 8:1 was chopped in half, and …
3. The BLOOD of Jesus was removed from Colossians 1:14…. 4. The plainest verse in all the Bible conveying the Godhead was completely neutered 1 John 5:7 ….
Then we can talk.
C.S. Lewis Exposed [podcast]
“I have the deepest respect for Pagan myths, still more for myths in the Holy Scriptures” (PP, p.71). CS Lewis In the above quote from C.S. Lewis, not only did he announce his “respect for Pagan myths” but also called the contents of the Bible “myths.” But Jesus called God’s Word “truth” when He prayed to the Father, “Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.” (John 17:17) Any man who can read these quotes from this devil in the flesh, CS Lewis, and not wholesale reject him and his heresies, is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. “Tell most ‘Christians’ anything negative […]

Jesus Calling Devotional Exposed: 10 Things You Might Not Know
“I know so many who are so deceived by this book!! The author is a woman and she makes Jesus sound like your boyfriend who is so in love with you he can’t bare a minute without you! It is sickening! Plus she says the Bible was not enough for her. She needed more. This author died and if she did repent of her blasphemy against a holy God she is burning in hell as we speak.” Karen Cochran
BEWARE of the Jesus Calling devotional book which is written by a full blown heretic, Sarah Young. This book continually assures things to lost souls (catholics, etc.) reserved only for the true Christian. It promises salvation, assurance, grace, mercy, the glory of God, etc to lost hell bound idolatrous sinners. Like antichrist Rick Warren’s Purpose Driven Life book, Jesus Calling never calls sinners to repent which is a Gospel essential and without which God will never save any soul from sin and hell (Luke 13:3, 5). You will never hear Jesus’ born again commanded or command to repent in this heretical devotional book title Jesus Calling. This monstrosity simply confirms sinners in their sin, sealing their doom in the lake of fire (Jeremiah 23:17; Lamentations 2:14, etc.).
Sarah Young is just another self-willed false prophet who does “ministry” her way, not God’s, in order to sell books and to mislead eternal souls into eternal damnation.
The blessings of God in Christ’s salvation are reserved only for those born again “in Christ,” and never for hell bound religious idolaters (John 15:7; 2 Corinthians 1:20; 2 Peter 1:1-4, etc.).
Stacy Strother writes:
“Her subtly, deceptive, doctrinally corrupt fairy tale version of what she calls bible studies for all the different ages of people, including children’s bible studies, teen and other, are found in the book stores—shelves filled full.
She is deceived, a false witness, False bible teacher, and has not heard from our Jesus—the Christ, Son of the living God, of which, is the very Word of God.
She hears from demons. Period! She needs to REPENT, and be born again! Please Lord Jesus, help her see her own demise!”

FEEDBACK:
“Solid Biblical refutation of the “New Age ” nonsense passing itself off as the latest thing God is doing. In our area a number of Churches have embraced this and other similar material with no discernment to the un-biblical nature of this drivel. Thank God for Warren B.

Jesus vs The Pope, Muhammad, Joseph Smith, and Ellen White [podcast]
*CORRECTION: Ellen White was the false prophet of the SDA (Seventh Day Adventists) and not the JW (Jehovah’s Witness) cult. Both the Seventh-day Adventists and the Jehovah’s Witnesses grew out of the Adventist movement of the 19th century, the Seventh-day Adventists specifically through the Millerites. Both still cults. Jesus Christ founded the Christian faith. The kingdom of Christ is revealed in the Bible which is the only divinely inspired holy Book on the planet and we know that because only God could know “the end from the beginning” which is something He declares and demonstrates in His Word (Isaiah 46:9-10).

Billy Graham Promoted and Sent People to Go Join the Catholic Church
“One of the most troubling problems within the church today is the unwavering loyalty to a ‘christian’ personality rather than to Christ and His Word. The unwillingness to test every man’s teaching with God’s Word, coupled with a stubborn lack of discernment, produces fertile ground for deception to flourish.” Evangeline DiChristi
from Chick Publications
Billy Graham Still Sending Converts Back to the Pope
Billy Graham. We know that his messages are solid gospel. Few in or out of the Christian World have not heard of him. Since 1949 he has held the spotlight as the most prominent evangelist in Christendom. He has just finished his 416th crusade in Pasadena, California that drew over 300,000 people in four days. 13,000+ responded to his altar calls. Graham is now 86 years old and has one more crusade scheduled in New York City next year, health permitting.
The Pasadena crusade was on the anniversary of his first Los Angeles revival 55 years ago. It was after that meeting that Graham was “kissed by William Randolph Hearst” according to Dr Cathy Burns in her book, Billy Graham and His Friends. This meant that Hearst had decided to promote Graham’s ministry in his nationwide chain of newspapers.
Immediately, reporters and photographers were crawling all over the Graham meetings. Front page articles began to appear in the leading local papers wherever Graham held meetings. One reporter was assigned full time to travel with Graham’s team.
In 1991, Graham claimed that this sudden attention remained a mystery. Burns describes a more complex scenario. Regardless, the publicity propelled Graham into the national, if not international, limelight.
Jesus warned, “Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you.” Over the years, Graham became the friend of presidents and kings, a beloved “America’s Pastor.”
But the fame came with a price. In his book, Smokescreens, written in 1983, Jack Chick describes how Roman Catholic leaders viewed and used Graham as a key player in their ecumenical plans. As early as 1965, he was a guest speaker at Catholic Belmont Abbey College in North Carolina where he received an honorary doctor’s degree. A college official’s letter describes Graham’s address as “theologically sound” as may have been given by “any other Catholic preacher.” The letter further states, “I would state that he could bring Catholics and Protestants together in a healthy ecumenic spirit.” Graham was also speaking at several other Catholic colleges at that time.
This prediction was fully realized. In Smokescreens, Chick shows various illustrations. In 1971 Graham is shown meeting with Oakland, California, Catholic Bishop Floyd Begin who lauded Graham’s ministry. In 1972 he received a Franciscan Friars’ award for true ecumenism. In 1979 Graham praised the pope as a “moral and spiritual leader that believes in something.”
In 1981 he was closeted for almost two hours with Pope John Paul II. After the 1982 New England crusade, thousands of those who went forward for salvation were turned over to Catholic clergy for follow-up.
And this hasn’t changed. Before the Pasadena crusade this year, The Tidings, official newspaper for the Los Angeles diocese, reported that Cardinal Mahony had written to parish priests to encourage their members to attend the crusade.
Crusade officials bragged that they had “a marvelous agreement” with Graham to give all registration cards to the diocese, of the inquirers who identified themselves as Catholic. The object was to “reincorporate Catholic Crusade participants back into full sacramental life in the Catholic Church.” “This is ecumenicity at it finest,” said Alexei Smith, Ecumenical and Interreligious Officer for the archdiocese.
There is no doubt that hundreds of thousands have been swept into the kingdom during the Graham crusades. But how tragic that so many who responded to Graham’s call to salvation were then sent back to the spiritual bondage and pagan rituals of the pope’s prostitute church?
Jack Chick concludes the Smokescreens chapter: “Yes, beloved. Billy Graham, as much as I love him and hate to say it, I believe was cleverly used as a smokescreen and as a pied piper for the whore of Revelation.”
In Graham’s 1952 Pittsburgh crusade, the Pittsburgh Sun-Telegraph reported that Graham said:
“Many of the people who reach a decision for Christ at our meetings have joined the Catholic Church and we have received commendations from Catholic publications for the revived interest in their Church following our campaigns. This happened both in Boston and Washington. After all, one of our prime purposes is to help the churches in a community. If after we move on, the local (sic) churches do not feel the efforts of these meetings in increased membership and attendance, then our crusade would have to be considered a failure.” [Emphasis in the original.]
Did you notice that Graham was only interested in a church’s increased membership-but nothing was said about a person receiving Christ as his or her personal Lord and Savior. This is what is important-not church membership! Church membership could increase a 1000-fold but if people are not being saved, then all is in vain.
Graham also gave a boost to the Catholic Church (in 1952) when he added that he “hoped to hear Bishop Fulton J. Sheen at one of the masses at St. Paul’s Cathedral tomorrow. ” [Emphasis in the original.]
“In 1968, Graham was in a meeting in San Antonio, Texas. He said that the Roman Church had given ‘tremendous cooperation’ in areas where he had held crusades. He added, ‘A great part of our support today comes from Catholics. We never hold a crusade without priests and nuns being much in evidence in the audience.”
By 1973 nuns were singing in the choir at Graham’s crusades.
Continuing on with Graham’s ecumenical outlook, the June 10, 1966 issue of Time said that volunteers “will tactfully receive those stepping forward to make a decision for Christ, [and] steer them to the nearest church of their chosen denomination….”
In Poland in 1978, “Graham taught nuns and priests how to evangelize. A picture taken at the famous Polish Shrine of the Black Madonna shows Graham welcoming pilgrims to the worship of their Virgin.”
Historical List of Atrocities of the Popes [video]
Peter was not the first so-called “pope” because there’s no such thing in Christ’s kingdom. Not one mention in the Bible and such would actually blaspheme the only Head of HIS truth believers, the nail scarred risen Savior Him, “the blessed and only Potentate (Supreme Ruler), the King of kings, and Lord of lords;” (1 Timothy 6:15) Therefore we rightly conclude that the pope is the head of a false church. 1 Timothy 2:5 Historical List of Atrocities of the Popes Speaking of things not found in God’s Word …..

Did Mary Die for Our Sins? [podcast]
Mary is just one of millions of people who have obeyed their Maker. That doesn’t make the immaculate conception heresy correct, that doesn’t make her anything other than a sinner, which she admitted (Luke 1:47). If Mary had refused to obey God, He would have simply replaced her (Esther 4:14). Did Mary walk on water? Did Mary tell anyone to pray to her? Is there even one prayer in the Bible to Mary? No. Did Mary raise the dead, open blinded eyes, heal the lepers, or die for anyone’s sins? No. THE CATHOLIC CHURCH TEACHES THAT MARY IS THE MEDIATRIX/co-redeemer: […]
10 Clues Your Love for God has Waxed Cold [podcast]
The wise virgin saints are keeping their lamps full of divine oil, they are taking personal responsibility for their own spiritual state with Christ the great and soon coming Bridegroom. Read Matthew 25:1-13.
“The Love of Many Shall Wax Cold”
“And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” Matthew 24:10-14
Did you notice in verse 14 that those who hot for Jesus are participating in the preaching of His Word to the end of the earth (Mark 16:15).
Anyone not devouring God’s Word daily is falling away, is not enduring to the end, is choosing the let their love for Jesus wax cold, and on the wrong, the losing end of this prophecy Jesus gave here on record in Matthew 24:10-14.
“I will spue (vomit, reject) thee out of my mouth”
“So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. 17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:” Revelation 3:16-17
Praying God will help you love Him more (Matthew 22:37-40). It really all boils down to WHO we love most. THAT is exactly who we are serving (Romans 6:16).
Loving God is everything as far as what’s in our control – because it’s a choice, daily, and will determine if one remains in Christ to the end.
“Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.” Matthew 22:37-40
“Thou hast left thy first love”
“Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. 5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.” Revelation 2:4-5
1. When you are choosing not to spend quality time with God in prayer each and every morning… When you are choosing not to spend quality time with God in His Word each and every morning (Luke 9:23-24; 1 Chronicles 16:11).
2. When your love for God’s people is being reduced instead of increased (Philippians 2:12-13; 1 John 5:1) Marks of the True Christian …. “Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. 10 Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; 11 Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;” (Romans 12:9-11) See John 13:35.
“And it was told him by certain which said, Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to see thee. 21 And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it.” Luke 8:20-21
“We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.” 1 John 3:14
“Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.” 1 John 5:1
Reading 1 Corinthians 13 today will refresh your heart and mind on the divine importance placed upon LOVE.
3. You are not denying self and not taking up the cross daily (Luke 9:23-24; 19:27; Galatians 2:20; Colossians 3:3, etc.).
4. You aren’t communicating the light of truth to others because you no longer seek or fear the LORD and so His divine virtue isn’t teeming in and flowing out of you. Your cup no longer runs over but instead is running empty (Psalms 23). You have a lampshade over the light and are not letting His light shine in and through your life and words… “Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.” (Isaiah 58:1)
5. You live in fear instead of faith and the joy of being with Jesus (Luke 21:28; 1 John 4:16-18; Proverbs 28:1; Psalms 2:11).
6. You preach promises and not conditions…following the apostate modern church and you don’t preach the cardinal doctrines of the original Gospel which we are commanded to “earnest contend for.” (Jude 3) You begin meditating on and living by trends instead of truth (Jeremiah 9:3; 2 Timothy 4:2-4; Philippians 4:8; Romans 12:1-2).
7. You have little or no true fellowship with other born- again Bible believing disciples of Jesus as is defined in God’s Word and not by the modern church world (Acts 2:42).
The Word of God is to run rich, to be abundant among God’s people … “In all wisdom” and “all in the name of the Lord Jesus” … “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. 17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.” (Colossians 3:16-17)
8. You know you are backsliding when your main thrust and identity become politics, not the work of the Gospel. YOU are a blood bought disciple of Jesus, not a conservative. You are a Bible believing follower of Christ (Luke 9:62; Galatians 6:14).
9. When you love this world…..When you spend more time and money on hobbies and the things of this fleeting world than you do on attending to knowing, walking with the LORD and preparing to be used of Him (Mark 4:17-19; 1 John 2:15; James 4:4).
10. When you spend more money on trash and trinkets then helping the work of the One you claim to love and the poor. You know you are backslidden when you are not obeying God with what He’s placing in your temporal possession. He shall bring you into full account for this.
Regrettably, people will give their money to any and every pleasure under the sun but make excuses when the opportunity to support the work of the One they claim to love and serve. The Holy Spirit foretold that in the final days before the return of Jesus, there would be those with a mere “form of godliness”, “men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous,” and “lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God.” (2 Timothy 3:1-7) According to the LORD, one of the main ways to measure our true love for Him or lack thereof, is by peering into our personal stewardship of the resources He’s placed into our temporary possession. Luke 12 and 16 offer a plethora of divine wisdom and warning concerning the judgment to come, the judgment we shall endure in giving account for our stewardship in this life.
The clear proof that God is working in our lives, that we are truly following Jesus, is that we are becoming less and less vested in this fleeting, fallen world (James 4:4; 1 John 2:15-17). And that we, our good works, our giving are more and more invested in eternity – in the eternal kingdom of Christ, laying up treasures in Heaven, sending them before us, relinquishing the things of this world for the glory of God – putting them to work for the eternal Gospel of Christ – for saints to be fed and equipped and the lost to hear the Word of God (Matt. 6:19-21).
“Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. 22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. 23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness! 24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.” Matthew 6:19-24
To underscore the importance of stewardship, we should realize that 16 of our LORD’s 38 parables involved stewardship. Those who now do not wish to face and confront this truth, are apparently those who are in the most need of hearing it.
PRAYER: Father I come to You now in the name of Jesus Christ. Please cause my conscience to be super sensitive to Your conviction, Your leading, and to evade all that defiles me in Your holy eyes, sin. Here and now I submit my life afresh to You dear LORD. You must increase but I must decrease. I am crucified with Christ and thank You for conforming me to His holy image. I am all Yours LORD and thank You that You are all mine. I love You Jesus. Please make me one with You and the Father and with Your beloved body. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
You can Have a … Jesus is the Great Shepherd of His Sheep (Heb. 13:20; Lk. 15) A FRESH START WITH GOD (First, if you are not certain that you are genuinely born again, please go here first) Let’s get something straight…. the disciple, the mere man writing this message is more in need of JESUS than anyone who ever lived! No one needs Jesus more than I do and yet, we must do things HIS way, not our own (Ephesians 3:8). “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” Proverbs […]

The Love of Many Shall Wax Cold [podcast]
If someone’s love toward God’s people has waxed cold, it’s only because their love for the LORD first waxed cold (Matthew 24:10-14). Today is the best day to repent and return to the LORD. “And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all […]
