Bible Bashed! King James Bible Bashing. CS Lewis Idolatry!
Persecuted for Believing God is Not Confused about His Real Word!
—————————
SHOCKING 4 Verse King James Bible Comparison
—————————
“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”
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
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.
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!

Jacked Up Jezebel Rebuked [podcast]
“Jezebel is a widely rampant spirit of rebellion that is hard to get rid of, rooted in pride, self-will, and self-sufficiency. Only the LORD can deliver but only if the individual truly repents and submits to Him, to His Word.” Anita Villarreal
Any person defending this jezebel heresy that women can be pastors, elders over men, is under the control of Satan, period. And in need of true repentance (James 4:7).
—-There are NO female apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, or teachers under the New Testament (Ephesians 4:8, 11-12). Jesus gave these “gifts unto MEN.” (Ephesians 4:8) There is not even one woman mentioned in 27 books as an elder over Christ’s flock. Such is clearly forbidden (1 Timothy 2:11-12). In Acts 21:9 we read of Phillip’s daughters which “did prophesy” which is a gift of the Spirit (one of the nine-1 Corinthians 12:7-10). The office gifts are eldership functions for men called to be overseers over Christ’s flock, which is completely different than the gifts of the Spirit which every believer can function in and certainly women are seen doing such as Phillip’s daughters and how women are mentioned concerning operating in the gifts of the Spirit in 1 Corinthians 14.
Classic case of a jezebel lashing out when the Word of GOD corrects her (2 Timothy 3:16-17). Her rebellion is against God. Jezebel is utterly rebellious. She hates what God’s Word says and so the demons that control jezebels will lash out in personal attacks against the men who stand on the truth unwaveringly (such as did Elijah whom Jezebel sought to kill).
“Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.” 1 Timothy 2:11-14
From the divine perspective, this is not about oppression but rather about protect. See Revelation 2:20-24 to see what Jesus warns when a woman is allowed to lead as an elder in the body of Christ. He uses the words “The depths of Satan” and speaks of the death and destruction that will result when the men allow a woman to lead in a manner that is outside of the stated role God ordained for the woman.
Yes the LORD said He will pour out His Spirit on all flesh, sons and daughter, but not to anoint a woman to do something HE forbids. Women are to teach women yes but not the general body of believers (Titus 2:1-5). There are NO female elders in the New Testament. God forbids it. Eldership is reserved for men – to humbly teach, lead and protect and cherish women and children.
“There’s a crazy role reversal across the land and men should always lead. Even our women’s prayer group was led by the pastor because that’s what he believed. Women are more emotional and men more logical. Both have their designated roles . God meant them to compliment each other rather than to compete.” John Umlauf
When people don’t like what God’s Word states, they will attack the mere messenger as if that changes the truth. Not. And, they heap judgment on themselves by doing so (Matthew 7:1-5; James 2:13). Persecution
“For we are not as many, which corrupt (twist, adulterate) the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.” 2 Corinthians 2:17
“He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.” John 8:47
“Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.” Proverbs 13:13
Jesus Addresses the Ahabs and Self-Appointed Jezebel at the Church at Thyatira
Revelation 2:20-24
Revelation 2:20-24 is about a certain self-appointed woman who was allowed by the spineless men in Thyatira to operate out of the biblically-stated order for women in the church setting.
Rev 2:20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.
Rev 2:21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.
Rev 2:22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.
Rev 2:23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
Rev 2:24 But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.

Laboring in the Spirit, not the Flesh
“Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.” Jude 21
It’s not about the color or your skin, it’s about what kingdom you’re in!
What Should be the Response of the Body of Christ? – LOVE!
Reading 1 Corinthians 13 each morning this week is a life changer. Nothing in our lives is going to work out right if we don’t prayerfully endeavor to walk in God’s love – loving God and our neighbor, above ourselves. I love pouring prayerfully over 1 Corinthians 13 and Philippians 2:3-5. Life changing is an understatement!
Racism is hatred and is not a skin color. It is a heart condition – coming from a sinful heart. Memorize Romans 2:11.
In the time of tribulation for the believers at Thessalonica, the Holy Spirit spoke through Paul and said this:
“And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.” 2 Thessalonians 3:5
By this we know of a certainty that the Holy Spirit is leading, directing our “hearts into the LOVE of God” and not the flesh, not a fleshly response. We now face tribulation and can be assured by this truth that our unchanging God is directing our hearts into His love and not hatred.
This is a divine truth for every era, every hour…. and we sure know that sin is exponentially abounding in this late hour…. which means divine grace is even greater – to save, heal, bless, deliver, and make whole!!!!
“But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:” Romans 5:20
Here’s more evidence of God’s leading His people into the love walk in trying times:
“But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. 8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.” 1 Peter 4:7-8
Any person who does not walk in God’s love is not saved and we know that from many Scriptures. No hate, no hater shall enter Christ’s kingdom, no matter what justification that sinner thinks he has to warrant hating anyone. “He that loveth not knoweth not God.” (1 John 4:8) “Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.” (1 John 3:15)
When His disciples ask Him “what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?”, Jesus gave them this answer:
“And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation (ethnic group) shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. 10 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.” Matthew 24:4-13
“Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. 4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. 5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.” 2 Timothy 2:3-5
The Church began, will end as containing precious souls from every nation, kindred, and tongue (Acts 2; Revelation 5:9; 14:6).
The New Testament church began with men from every nation under Heaven and will be the same throughout eternity in glory.
Acts 2:1-13
“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;” Revelation 5:9
Nation/ethnos, ethnic yes…groups at odds was foretold by Jesus – Matthew 24:7
Yes we can be at peace, Jesus told us to fear not and to be at peace …..
John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

When God Says to STOP PRAYING! [podcast]
Reconciling with God and other Saints
“He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law (the Word), even his prayer shall be abomination.” Proverbs 28:9
Those who do not love God enough to seek Him in the Word, to learn, and to obey Him, will not be heard by Him.
“He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.” Proverbs 28:13
In general, because God is “Holy, holy, holy,” when there is sin, God will not answer prayers – until the sinner repents and reconciles with the LORD and any person involved as needed (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8; Proverbs 28:9, etc.).
“And the LORD said unto Joshua, Get thee up; wherefore liest thou thus upon thy face? 11 Israel hath sinned …” Joshua 7:10-11
In other words, God said to Joshua “Why are you seeking My face, praying to me, talking to me, when there is sin in the camp? Get the sin our of the camp and then you can approach Me in prayer.”
STOP PRAYING AND LEAVE IT!
God is not going to bless our lives unless we are willing to sincerely admit our sins, repent and confess them, and make amends (restitution) with anyone we’ve harmed. In the divine economy, there’s no such thing as being right with God when you’ve done another person wrong, haven’t repented, and haven’t made amends for what you’ve done. Such a person will be outside of the will and blessings of God until he makes things right with God and man.
God is not hearing the prayers or worship of any person who has done someone else wrong and refuses to make restitution (Matthew 5:23-24).
“Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath aught against thee; Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; FIRST be reconciled to thy brother, and THEN come and offer thy gift.” Matthew 5:23-24
God will not answer the prayer of any person who does not honor and obey His Word and if a person has an outstanding offense He wants them to clear up these matters (Proverbs 28:9, 13).
Here Jesus gave us the instruction to stop praying! What!? Someone may be thinking “Todd, are you being sacrilegious now!? What is your problem brother!?” Keep reading okay.
“If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:” Psalms 66:18
“If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.” John 15:7
According to the Son of God, just when (if ever) should the believer stop praying? When he remembers that a brother has “aught against” him. Yes, I know this may raise eyebrows to say that Jesus told us to stop praying, but He certainly did. That’s what we read of His very words in Matthew 5.
He instructs us not to wait for the other person to come to you. Go to them and make peace. Work things out so that neither of your relationships with God will be in any way hindered. Forgive. Seek restitution and forgiveness. The Christian life is all about relationship – vertically first and them horizontally.
Jesus is saying here: “Stop praying or doing any form of worship until you have first done all you can possibly do to make peace with that person you had strife or misunderstanding with, offended, or wounded – the person that still has aught against you, whose heart isn’t yet clear in the matter. Your prayers and any form of supposed worship will not be honored in Heaven until you take care of this matter. Since I am holy I require certain things of you and one of them is that you do your best to keep unity with others, especially My people. Remember how I told you to love one another and to treat others as you wish to be treated? I love you and want clear communion with you and am simply not going to allow you to have a clear conscience until you work things out with that other person who has aught against you. Remember that though I love you, I care about others as much as I care about you. Get that human relationship right first and then come and seek My face in worship and we shall commune.”
God forgives us through Christ’s perfect sacrifice and as we choose to give it out to others! WHO might you have aught against in your heart today beloved?
As a believer, the LORD holds me personally accountable to facilitate reconciliation and peace in others when there is a rift and no matter whose fault it is (Matt. 5:23-24).
First and foremost we must realize that when we sin it is against the One who is “holy, holy, holy” (Isa. 6:3; Rev. 4:8). After that fact, we at times sin against or offend men (James 3:1). So, when we have wrongly offended someone who is created in the image of God, we should first confess that sin to the LORD and then do whatever it takes within our power to make it right with the person.
“Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of thine hand to do it. 28 Say not unto thy neighbour, Go, and come again, and to morrow I will give; when thou hast it by thee.” Proverbs 3:27-28
“Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another. 26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: 27 Neither give place to the devil.” Ephesians 4:25-27
Child of God, are you aware of anyone who might be upset with you for something you have done or they thought you did? Is anyone offended at you?
This writer is no stranger to wronging people, but is learning to follow this simple truth in Matthew 5, making sure to openly and transparently facilitate healing in those I have brought hurt to or who are offended at me for any legitimate reason.
Granted, we are going to offend people at times when it is not our fault. I am not talking about that. I am talking about when it is our fault or the situation is questionable or a close call.
Have you been offended? Have you ever found yourself in a situation where someone else held the key to your closure, your healing? Think back in your life: Have you ever needed someone else’s help in getting free in your heart from something concerning a situation?
Jesus called the divine Person of the Holy Spirit “the Comforter” (Jn. 14:26; 15:26; 16:7). God is all-powerful and can help us walk through a heart-rending ordeal where another person has hurt us and is unwilling to partake of the healing process according to the Word/instructions of the LORD. This He can and will do, yet He holds that other person responsible for doing their part – “Leave there thy gift before the altar – FIRST be reconciled to thy brother.”
Those made righteous by the blood of Christ are to do all in their power to facilitate healing in others.
“If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.” Romans 12:18
Jesus Christ came to make captives free and such freedom is the desire of all who follow Him. They desire also to see people set free and do their part when it is in the power of their hand to help (Prov. 3:27).
“Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.” Galatians 6:2
When need be, we are to work hard to make sure God’s peace abides among the saints.
“Endeavouring (working hard) to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” Ephesians 4:3
“Endeavouring” – it’s hard work at times to keep unity in the body. Have you noticed that things happen that need attention, patience, humility, admission where wrong has been done, etc.?
It is our personal responsibility to keep schisms out of Christ’s body as much as it is in our power.
“That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it. Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.” 1 Corinthians 12:25-27
The LORD promises us that He commands His precious peace where brethren dwell together in unity.
“Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments; As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there (in the unity of believers) the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.” Psalms 133:1-3
The person who is truly born again cares for the body of Christ. Peace among the saints is where God’s blessing abides.
“We know that we have passed from death unto life (we know we are saved), BECAUSE we love the brethren.” 1 John 3:14
Without love we are nothing (1 Cor. 13). Divine love, authentically demonstrated in our lives, is the earmark fruit of the Heaven-bound disciple. There are no exceptions – “He that loveth not knoweth not God” (1 Jn. 4:8). If such charitable love does not presently appear in our lives, we should consider going before the throne of grace and making things right with God (repentance). The genuinely born again person is filled with God’s love and teachable in the precepts of the LORD. When he discovers a previously unknown (to him) truth, he swiftly hearkens and obeys. Remember, God’s eternal kingdom and the terms for entrance into it are based on the LORD’s terms and not any individual’s. Either we meet the terms and conditions or we shall be found without (Matt. 7:21-23; Lk. 6:46-49; 13:24-30; 1 Jn. 2:3-5; Rev. 2-3).
“We know that we have passed from death unto life (we know we are saved – been brought from spiritual death to spiritual life), BECAUSE we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.” 1 John 3:14-16
Child of God, do you have a key that would help another get free? If you possess the key that would assist in obtaining their freedom, the LORD holds you personally responsible to use it to help unlock that person’s heart and assist in their returning to a heart that is right with God, free from anything that hinders that relationship.
“Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath.” Ephesians 4:26
Don’t let the sun go down upon that which you can do to cause reconciliation in Christ’s body for which He bled. Leave your prayer closet and any and all worship and go get things right with that person the LORD may be placing on your heart. You will be glad you obeyed the LORD in this.
You see, if we truly have an intimate and saving relationship with Christ, we realize that nothing could be more important to us – and others. Knowing Jesus is everything. Armed with this knowledge and moved upon by the Holy Spirit, we are to be compelled to help others in their relationship with Jesus in any way we possibly can.
PRAYER: Father in Heaven, thank You for sending Your only begotten Son Jesus to live and die for me – for all of my many sins. This moment, I turn my life to Thee O God – asking Your merciful forgiveness on my sin of departing from You. Right this instant I ask You to please be my first love LORD Jesus! Bless this heart with sensitivity and a deep conviction for Your truth. Please allow this heart to have godly conviction! Please bless this life You graciously gave lift others to You and help them in any and every way I have opportunity. I am all Yours and You are all mine my LORD. Quicken my heart in any matter that You wish me to make amends with another person. Right now I now humble myself under Your mighty hand and ask You to use me to help facilitate peace between You and others Jesus, and in Your body. Please bless Your body to live in Your love, and Your truth and in peace with You and one another. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
