The Peril and Plague of Empty Messengers

Stating the obvious: There are so many “clouds and wind without rain” ministers/ministries (Proverbs 25:14; Jude 1:12). It’s all emotion, entertainment, no truth. Unreal and people just keep going back and supporting this foolishness, even though they are empty. That’s the problem – They don’t study the Bible themselves, the KJB.

Clouds from heaven are full of refreshing living water to bless, to make whole, heal, and establish God’s people in the faith (Colossians 2:6-10).

The LORD’s true “prophets” are not those who come up with some word they claim is from God but rather those who strictly, humbly, and obediently preach His “more sure word of prophecy” which is the written Word and more divinely authoritative then even the audible voice of the Father speaking from Heaven – 2 Peter 1:16-21.

Though there are so many who hold positions of influence with audiences, there are so few who simply and only speak God’s pure Word.  There are so many empty, substance-less men in leadership today. The Bible has some things to say of this very thing – this apostasy.

“Whoso boasteth himself of a false gift is like clouds and wind without rain.” Proverbs 25:14

”Clouds and wind without rain” is an illustration of someone who is empty, that is, they have no substance, even though they have a platform and are saying words. Rick Warren is one such character. If one can’t see that this man is an airbag, it reveals a gross lack of Scripture knowledge and zero discernment.

Do we begin now to grasp the picture here that Scripture is painting to convey an truth? ”Clouds and wind without rain” simply tease the ground of our hearts. Lots of entertainment, lots of energy, lots of aggressive talking, lots of charisma, lots of arrogance, and very little or no substance – Biblical truth.

The apostle Peter picks up this truth in his discourse on false leaders.

2 Peter 2:17 says: “These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.”

Jude 1:12 says: “These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: CLOUDS THEY ARE WITHOUT WATER (no substance), carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;”

This also applies to the IHOP churches, the whole so-called “prophetic” and “apostolic” flakes who have no Scripture in their many words and when they do use them, it’s to their own twisted advantage (2 Corinthians 2:17; 2 Peter 3:16). There is no such thing as teaching sound doctrine in these houses of witchcraft. They are apostate. Run for your life!

The whole community church, emergent church, emerging church, and seeker-friendly frauds are also shallow and void of biblical substance and therefore, according to the LORD, are apostate “clouds and wind without rain.”(Proverbs 25:14)

Were these dismal days of emptiness not foretold?

“Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:” Amos 8:11

There is gross famine in our land, a famine of hearing God’s precious words. 

“REPENT” is the very first Word/divine command of the original Gospel – Matthew 3:2; 4:17; Acts 2:38; 3:19; 17:30; 20:21 etc. ANY man who isn’t constantly teaching and calling men to repent is a vile antichrist hell bound wolf.

There are millions of hungry souls today who go to hear lame sermonettes preached by men not given over to Christ in the cross and therefore refuse to repent and study, learn, memorize and preach only God’s written Word!

“If I had only three years to serve the Lord, I would spend two of them studying and preparing.” Donald Barnhouse

Many have run out and paid tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars to get a so-called “seminary” degree. They accomplished this by learning mere men’s theology which is the story of what mere men say about God’s Word – rather than simply learning God’s Word, obeying it, and walking daily with Him. Such is the way the LORD prepares His men. Seminary is total subversion. There is blindness in the hearts of men for not knowing the Holy Scriptures. There are many DTS (Dallas Theological Seminary) graduates I have discusses biblical things with. Seldom were these men Bible centered. What does that tell you that they spent those years and monies being taught?

Beware!

Hungering, thirsty souls go to their local church houses seeking substance and find none. They just get entertained and leave as empty as they came and even more disillusioned. Just as in cases where the fallow, dry ground in the desert cries out to the clouds in the skies for water and never receives a drop of rain, so thirsting souls cry out for those claiming to be Christian leaders for the water of God’s Word and never get any!

“As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: 7Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.  8Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:” Colossians 2:6-10

JESUS’ TRUE DISCIPLES ARE CRUCIFIED VESSELS WHO PREACH WITH HIS AUTHORITY, UNLIKE THE LAME, SELF-SERVING “LEADERS” WE HAVE TODAY (MATTHEW 7:28-29). TRUE GOSPEL PREACHING ROCKS THE WORLD OF THOSE WHO HEAR IT – IT NEVER CODDLES PEOPLE IN THEIR SIN. THAT’S THE WORK OF WOLVES! BEWARE!

MINISTRY is about feeding sheep, not entertaining goats (John 21:15-17). So, when you see a “minister” entertaining, you know he himself is a goat (1 Corinthians 1:29-2:5).

Soft, compromised preaching only produces the fruit of lukewarm counterfeits! Real disciples migrate to pure truth spoken straight! No sugar added! (2 Timothy 4:2-4; Isaiah 30:9-10) Case in point: Just look at that which falsely calls itself the church today! No soul winners, no real daily disciples, etc. Totally false.

When Jesus preached the counterfeit religionists were made livid and scattered at the rebuke of His truth, spoken in divine authority (Matthew 7:28-29). Are you scattering the tares in your audience or are you coddling these rebels in their sin?

Bowels of Mercies [podcast]


“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. 15 For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish: 16 To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things? 17 For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.” 2 Corinthians 2:14-17

“Now the end (supreme goal) of the commandment (Word of God, Gospel) is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:” 1 Timothy 1:5

Recently a dear brother in Christ who got to reading on the ministry site, sent me an email claiming that I was perhaps being too harsh in some of the expose’s on the site. After I responded, this dear man sent back an apology, asking forgiveness for his own unwarranted harshness towards me.

Whew! Saints this is exactly how we should humbly work out things in the body of Christ, whose love never fails!

Here was the response sent to him:

“Blessings in Christ dear brother and thank you for the iron sharpening iron (Proverbs 27:17). Please let me know how can be a blessing to you (Ps 133:1; Eph 4:3).”

“Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; 13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. 14 And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.” Colossians 3:12-14

WHEN we aren’t concerned about how we are affecting others, it’s because we don’t care for them and are full of self (Colossians 4:6).

“Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.” Colossians 4:6

“Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:” 1 Peter 1:22

“Ye are not straitened in us, but ye are straitened in your own bowels.” 2 Corinthians 6:12

“For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.” Philippians 1:8

“If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies,” Philippians 2:1

“For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.” Philemon 1:7

“Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels:” Philemon 1:12

“Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.” Philemon 1:20

“But whoso hath this world’s good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?” 1 John 3:17

Saints, may our LORD help us to HELP other disciples who are in the same fight as we are in and help them in the LORD’s process of sanctification. Galatians 6:1-2; 2 Timothy 2:24-26

Kiss Jesus Or be Crushed as His Enemy! [podcast]


Satan’s Pitiful Petty Perverted Pawns have an Expiration Date!

“Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.” Isaiah 13:9 

Psalm 2 is Prophetic of Christ and of His Return to Take back Possession of His Planet, Earth

The Reign of the Lord’s Anointed

1  Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? 
2  The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, 
3  Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. 
4  He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. 
5  Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. 
6  Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion. 
7  I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. 
8  Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. 
9  Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel. 
10  Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth. 
11  Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. 
12  Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him. 

GOD told us He’s laughing at these luciferians and all their “elaborate plans” to control humanity. Read Psalms 2. Jesus is coming. His enemies will be crushed under His holy, Almighty feet (Romans 16:20).

“And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.” Romans 16:20

The future belongs exclusively to Jesus Christ and His followers. Read the book of Revelation!

“And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.” Matthew 21:44

Jesus is coming back “In flaming fire taking vengeance.”

“And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, 8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: 9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; 10 When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.” 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10

The Coming of the Son of Man

“And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; 26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. 27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.” Luke 21:25-28 

Just as Aaron’s rod swallowed up the rods of the sorcerers of Egypt (the world), so shall Christ’s kingdom swallow up the kingdoms of this world! (Exodus 7:12; Daniel 2:44; 7:14) Will you be a part of Christ’s eternal kingdom?  

“And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.” Revelation 11:15

Bow now or burn forever.

All who refuse to repent, bowing down to “kiss the Son” of God will perish in their own corruption and be violently vanquished into the bowels of eternal damnation, the prison of fire, which will then be “cast into the lake of fire.”

“And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15  And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” Revelation 20:14-15

“EVERY Knee”

“Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10  That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11  And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” Philippians 2:9-11
