The Fear of the LORD is to Hate Evil: Pride, and Arrogancy #shorts [video]

God is not getting ready to bless any person who has not repented and put their lives in the hands of the nail-scarred risen Savior Jesus Christ.

Beware of the promise peddlers who indiscriminately dish out promises and never mention the necessity of meeting the conditions.

We’d better begin noticing the “IF“‘s in God’s Word – the conditions, the things God requires. Here you go, let me assist….

“Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. 19 IFFFFFFFF ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land: 20 But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.” Isaiah 1:18-20

Beware of those peddling promises without the biblical conditions. False prophets. Read Jeremiah 23 and Ezekiel 34. This week, as usual, seeing the promise peddlers who issue forth promises such as “This week everything you touch will prosper and be blessed.” It’s pretty much just an indiscriminate PMA (positive mental attitude) promise. There’s no condition, no cross in it, ever. It’s an alluring lie to get a fleeting pump to their audience and to be rewarded with likes on their account. There’s no foundation being built in the lives of the gullible who continue to listen to these lies. Hint: God is not going to bless anyone who isn’t worshipfully obeying Him – seeking Him with their whole heart (1 Chronicles 16:11; 2 Chronicles 16:9; Jeremiah 29:11-14; Matthew 5:3, 6, 8; 6:33; John 15:7; 1 John 3:22; 5:14-15, etc.). Every honest student of God’s Word knows that the LORD has conditions for His blessings.

“THEY ARE PROPHETS OF THE DECEIT OF THEIR OWN HEART”

“How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;” Jeremiah 23:26

Their messages are very partial with half-truths. There is no cross nor biblical conditions in them. Jesus says in John 15:7 that only those abiding in Him, obeying His Word, are blessed and can expect their prayers to be answered. God is not going to bless any person who is not truly born again and presently abiding in Christ on His stated terms and so, to indiscriminately put out condition-less promises like this is an erroneous undertaking and is misleading people. God will judge the false prophets who “prophesy lies … of the deceit of their own heart.” (Jeremiah 23:26) Beware of the promise peddlers who never include the divinely stated conditions. These are the same people who post Jeremiah 29:11 (usually using a fake “bible” version and not the KJB) and they never mention the text, the context which includes the LORD’s conditions. Read the whole text to get the context – Jeremiah 29:11-15.

Praying while Robbing

Recently I saw the video of a man trying to rob a store who was consequently locked in. And, he started to pray. Yet we know that all those who do not obey God’s Word which is His stated will, can pray till they are blue in the face and God will not deliver them. Nothing replaces obeying God’s Word. The LORD will bless no person who doesn’t obey Him (Matthew 7:21; Titus 1:16; 1 John 2:3-6, etc.).

“But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.” James 1:22

Just like this man who was praying while robbing someone, so today, many seek to rob the LORD of the glory due His holy name and in the midst of their disobedient, rebellious lives, pray to Him to bless them.

The only way to build your house, your life, from the ground up, is to get honest in fresh repentance, and to make God’s written Word the final authority of your personal life (Mathew 7:19-30). | Rooted and Grounded in Christ

Turning your face and ear away from God’s written Word and believing you are going to be blessed is utter insanity! Repent now and follow Jesus for real.

Memorize Proverbs 28:9 today.

“He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law (Word), even his prayer shall be abomination.” Proverbs 28:9

So, the condition in the verse above is that we hear and obey God’s Word. Otherwise our prayers are not heard by God and are an “abomination.”

The conditions given by God are integrally and inseparably non-negotiably connected to the promise and required in order to receive the promises He gives. Throughout history God gave His people promises but they didn’t always possess those promises due to their own sin (Psalms 107:17). Read 1 Corinthians 10 concerning the 5 specific, exact sins that kept God’s people out of the land He promised them. Just because the LORD gave promises, doesn’t mean everyone is going to possess those promises. Obedience required. | The 5 Sins That Keep God’s People Out of Their Promised Land [podcast]

On social media, I recently ran across just another all-too-typical false prophet who is peddling false promises. Notice “prophet” Tracy’s bait – “YOUR YEAR!” No year is “YOUR year.” God created time and all of it is HIS, not yours. They pretend to determine and control when and if God is going to bless someone in order to flatter them, to get them to give. Yet, pied pipers like this guy, Joel Osteen, and so many others are always falsely promising that “God’s promises, His blessings, are right around the corner.” They tell the people, their prey to “Hang in there. Continue to give because His blessing is coming.” Year after year, the promised blessing never comes and the false prophets continue to milk their audiences of cash. Yet these same frauds do not endeavor to preach and teach the whole counsel of the written Word of God which includes the divinely stated conditions for His blessings. The LORD is never going to bless any person who is not loving Him supremely and obeying Him (Psalms 18:20; 66:18; John 15:7; James 1:22; 1 John 3:22, etc.). What these false promise peddlers are doing is stringing people along in order to continue to syphon money from their wallets.

There are endless memes circulating on social media promising God’s blessings on everyone. Not. They are not qualifying who the blessings of God exclusively belong to and thereby deceiving many.

“God … now commandeth all men every where to repent:” Acts 17:30

Jesus commands all men to repent and will bless no one who doesn’t (Luke 13:3; Acts 17:30). All who do not repent and receive Christ are going to hell irrevocably forever and yet professing Christians are promising those unrepentant rebels that God is going to bless them. This is a lie, bearing false witness against the LORD. It’s time to preach the original Gospel which begins with the divine command to “repent.” (Matthew 3:4; 4:17; Luke 13:3, 5; Acts 2:38; 3:19; 17:30, etc.) Let’s stop giving out promises to people without the conditions that God gave. We are lying to them. Jesus commands us to preach repentance. Those who don’t are not obeying Christ, are not preaching the Gospel He preached and are therefore misleading their audience. They are preaching “another gospel.” (Galatians 1:6-9)

“And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. 48 And ye are witnesses of these things.” Luke 24:47-48

very old trick: The longer they can keep people hanging onto, chasing these false promise carrots they dangle before them, the more money those wolves can milk out of those groundless dupes.

“And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.” 1 John 3:22

“IF (denotes the condition) 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

“Preach the Word”

“Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” 2 Timothy 4:2-4

It’s real simple, frauds like this are NOT simply preaching the Gospel, the WORD. They only use, misuse Scripture to entice, to deceive, to mislead, to “make merchandise” of the people they prey upon (2 Timothy 4:2-4; 2 Peter 2:1-3) False prophets like this give false promises, never mentioning the divinely stated conditions.

Instead of simply preaching the written Word, the “MORE sure word”, false prophets conjure up words, prophecies, visions, dreams, and flattering false promises for their prey as they “make merchandise” of them (2 Peter 1:16-2:3). Beware.

“And her prophets have daubed them with untempered morter, seeing vanity, and DIVINING LIES unto them, saying, Thus saith the Lord GOD, when the LORD hath not spoken.” Ezekiel 22:28

Those who are truly “of God” seek His holy face daily, diligently, and for themselves – just as He commanded (1 Chronicles 16:11; John 8:47; 1 Thessalonians 5:17, etc.).

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

Anyone claiming to know or love God who doesn’t love and devour His words, is a liar and the truth is not in him.

“Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.” Jeremiah 15:16

“Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.” Job 23:12

ALL who truly follow Christ turn their “ear” towards His Word, never from it (Psalms 119; John 8:47, etc.).

God promises are conditional and reserved for those who obey Him (John 15:7).

“Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. ⁸ For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.” Galatians 6:7-8

NO, God is not trying to get rid of any of His own and yet, He’s set the conditions! Meet them or perish! Surrender now – that’s where it all begins.

Does every person on the planet automatically receive the benefits of Christ’s atoning death? No, there are conditions: repent, believe on Christ, and receive Him.

“But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:” John 1:12

There are divinely required conditions to be saved initially and into glory – eternally. God’s promises are conditional and He will only give them to those who meet His stated conditions.

ANOTHER FALSE “PROOF TEXT” BUSTED AND EXPOSED!

Many take the following passage out of its biblical context for their own self-serving purposes:

“For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, ³⁹ Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38-39

Question: Does the above passage of Scripture contain the only verses in the Bible to consider when studying the love and divine attributes of God? Are these the final words, the only two verses to be considered or is there more to consider? Do we need to take this verse for what it says and also in context with the whole of Scripture? Yes.

WHO is this promise for? Certainly not everyone. There are divine conditions placed on all of God’s promises and the honest student of Scripture must acknowledge this truth.

In the same chapter where this promise is found, notice the context of several verses that precede it:

Romans 8:1 “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.”

In Romans 8:1 there are two conditions: 1. you must be saved— “to them which are in Christ”, and 2. you must live in the Spirit and not the sins of the flesh— “who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.”

Also, see Romans 8:12-14:

“Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. ¹³ For IF (denotes free will to choose) ye live after the flesh, ye shall die (be separated from God): but IFFFFF ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live (remain in His life). ¹⁴ For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, THEY are the sons of God.”

This passage tells us that we are indebted to God who saved us into Christ and out of a life of sin. IF, IF, IF (denotes condition) we go back to living after the flesh, in sin, we shall die which means to be separated from God. Verse 14 tells us that anyone not being led by the Spirit of God but rather living in the flesh, is not a Son of God.

And Romans 8:17:

“And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; IFFFFFF so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.”

This verse lets us know that even being the very heirs of God does not remove the conditions this same God requires. Only the law-less counterfeits ignore them.

Christina Richmond writes:

“‘If’ denotes condition. Did you know that ‘If’ Is found about 1,595 times in 1,420 different verses of the KJV? I would say that denotes a lot of condition. Like salvation is conditional. Many, many scriptures prove just that. But sadly so many people like to leave out the word that implies condition (IF)… Like we see in 1 John 2:24-25, and John 15:6… If we fulfill the conditions the promises are then ours. Colossians 1:21-23 notice in this the condition, ‘If’ Indeed you continue in the faith… Hebrews 3:12-14 again see the condition, “If” we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end. The same as, we are the Lords friends ‘If’ we do whatsoever he command, John 15:14… Salvation is a gift offered to us by grace, but is activated through faith. You can deny salvation by departing from the faith. We are not forced to remain in Christ. If we do remain in him, we have life to look forward to, but if we don’t remain in him, we are cast forth into the fire. If, is a very important word that should never be overlooked or left out. By leaving it out, it will change the entire meaning of the scripture.”

If we are His truly heirs, we will suffer persecution for His sake and if we endure to the end in Christ we shall be glorified with Him eternally.

“HE THAT OVERCOMETH (divine condition), the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.” Revelation 3:5

If you are truly a child of God, you are suffering for Christ—you are being persecuted.

“Yea, and ALLLLL that will live godly in Christ Jesus SHALL suffer persecution.” 2 Timothy 3:12

Consider: Nothing can separate us from God’s love, if we abide (remain) in Christ. Otherwise we will be “cut off” and cast into the fire (John 15:6; Romans 11:20-22).

Jesus teaches that answered prayer is contingent upon the one who is in Him to continue to abide/remain in Him:

“IF (IF, IF, 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

God is warning all Gentile believers using the example of how He “cut off” (rejected) His own people (the Jews) when they rebelled, and threatens to do the same to all of us if we also rebel:

“Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear: ²¹ For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee. ²² Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.” Romans 11:20-22

“If thou seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off for ever.” 1 Chronicles 28:9

“If we deny him, he also will deny us.” 2 Timothy 2:12

There’s a difference to behold in Scripture between the LIFE and the LOVE of God. The believer can never be separated from the LOVE of God …. not the LIFE of God as in eternal life! The testimony of Holy Scripture reveals that the personal possession of eternal life is not eternal but rather can be forfeited. Eternal Security, OSAS (once saved always saved), and perseverance of the saints busted!

Divine conditions are found throughout Scripture. All of God’s promises to individuals are conditional upon them meeting His stated requirements.

It’s real simple, take a step back… If you don’t choose to agree with the Almighty, who gave us His Word, and comply, you will not be with Him. Instead you will be cast into the lake of fire with all other rebels. He gives you the choice. Agree and comply with DAD or you’re out. Read John 14, the whole chapter. Notice it begins with Christ telling us He’s the only way and promising us a mansion. Then He speaks of obedience and chapter speaks of abiding or remaining in Him to the end.

“Let that therefore abide (remain) in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. IFFFF (conditional) that which ye have heard from the beginning shall REMAIN in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.” 1 John 2:24

Who are “ALL the promises of God” reserved for and who are they kept from?

“For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.” 2 Corinthians 1:20

Whoever is not presently “IN HIM”—that is, walking in Christ, dead, with their life “hid with Christ in God”—is not included.

The OSAS deceiver will emphasize the promises of God in this verse and deliberately ignore the condition of being “in him.”

Jesus repeatedly taught that God’s promises to man are conditional. Here’s a mere sampling. Notice the conditions and consequences in each of Christ’s statements here in this vital passage out of John 15:

“⁵ I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth (continues) in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
⁶ IF (denotes choice, condition) a man abide (remain) not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
⁷ IFFFFF ye abide (remain) in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.” John 15:5-7

WHO does God show mercy to? EVERYONE? No …. read this closely….

“But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him (the divinely given condition), and his righteousness unto children’s children; 18 To such as keep his covenant (obedience), and to those that remember his commandments to do them.” Psalms 103:17-18

God gave all men free will. Jesus died for “ALL men” (1 John 2:2). God chooses all men to be saved and yet leaves the decision to the individual.

“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore CHOOSE life, that both thou and thy seed may live.” Deuteronomy 30:19

GOD set the rules and conditions of His kingdom as He chose. Those who comply will be blessed and those who don’t will be cursed.

“Choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” Joshua 24:15

Regrettably, so many today who claim to know Jesus do not follow Him the way He prescribed—which is the only way to follow Him. In fact, they aren’t even interested in finding out what Jesus says because of the ear-tickling lies they pay their wolves to tell them (2 Timothy 4:2-4). All those who care to know what the LORD said so they can follow Him accordingly, will daily and diligently devour His Word.

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

Are You Bless-able? English and Spanish [podcast]

Who is Going to be “Blessed”?

“A FAITHFUL MAN shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.” Proverbs 28:20

Like it or not, God has conditions to appropriate His blessings. Rebels hate this reality because they despise personal accountability, personal responsibility. Their rebellion changes nothing. Either repent, be saved, and walk humbly with Christ, or lose your soul for eternity in hell (Mark 8:34-38).

True followers of Jesus are doing the work of the Gospel, are diligent, are “not slothful,” and “inherit” “the promises” of God “through faith and patience.”

“For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. 11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: 12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” Hebrews 6:10-12

In the New Testament, we don’t ever see disciples of Christ spending all kinds of time singing praise songs, numbing themselves out, etc. No, when the Holy Spirit truly fills a believer, it’s to be a witness of Christ and that person is sent out.

Jesus dwells large only in those who practically obey Him and not those just trying to get an emotional fix by soaking in a building in a “revival.”

“And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” Joshua 24:15

Are We Bless-able?

“It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Acts 20:35

Have you given God your life?

“So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:33

Getting Gospel Grounded [podcast]

Refusing to sit under the false gospel, false doctrines, false teachers, and wolves is not forsaking the assembling of the saints. It’s obedience to the LORD! See 2 Corinthians 6:17-18) There is a “difference” between the true and the false leaders today. True disciples will always warn and help God’s people distinguish the false teachers and “discern between the unclean and the clean”: “And they shall teach my people the difference between the holy and profane, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean.” Ezekiel 44:23 False leaders are to be marked, to be scoped out and […]

The Golden Rule Life: What's that Really Mean? [podcast]

God calls you, yes you – to love Him supremely and to love your neighbor as you wish to be loved, treated (Matthew 7:12; 22:37-40; Philippians 2:3-5). We must teach ourselves, our children and those around us the Golden Rule. “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).

“Cursed be the Man that Trusteth in Man” [podcast]

A Nuclear Revelation

“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

“Cursed be the man that trusteth in man” is a powerful verse from the Bible, commonly associated with a specific warning against relying on human strength rather than God.”

So many act like Spurgeon or some other mere man’s writings are on the same level as Holy Scripture. NOT! They prove their idolatry. They are in sin. They glory in mere men and not the LORD! Hell awaits. Jeremiah 17:5; Isaiah 2:22; 1 Corinthians 1:29-31, etc.

God calls us to worship, love, seek, trust, and obey Him as the ultimate authority of our lives in this world.

Another example of this is the idolatry of the demonic fraud CS Lewis!

CS LEWIS EXPOSED

THIS JUST IN:

“Amen! Amen for Prov 10:22. All glory be to Him!

By the grace of God I discovered last night your website, praise Him, in search for exposure on CS Lewis.

By the grace of God I learnt as a baby believer, 20 years ago, that his teachings are dangerous including that witchcraft book and movie, Narnia. Sadly, so called mature Christians in the UK are considering him a saint, a born again believer.

I sent prayerfully (as I expected backlashes) to my friend last night, a few links exposing CS Lewis including the photo from your website which is brilliant exposure, praise Him but she is still claiming that he ‘was truly a born again’ ….. sending me his videos! It’s a principle: I don’t watch, read listen to CS Lewis and many others! The Bible is so rich in teachings, why do I need CS Lewis!?

My friend is a mature believer, born again believer for over 60-70 years and she cannot see it!

I had to use the VPN and duckduck search engine to get the website exposing CS Lewis, as in the UK, nothing will come up! Most of the Christians are bewitched by Narnia and Lord of the Rings! No wonder the country is in such a state of delusion! May the Lord have mercy!

Many blessings in His Name, V.”

CS LEWIS WAS A FRAUD – READ GOD’S WORD! REPENT AND GET IMPRESSED WITH THE LORD, BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE. IDOLATRY DAMNS!

“Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?” Isaiah 2:22

Those who look to men, who receive un-biblical counsel instead of testing it against the Word of God, are trusting in mere man and have brought a curse upon themselves (Jeremiah 17:5-6; Acts 17:10-11; 2 Timothy 3:16-17, etc.). Those who look anywhere except to the LORD Himself are idolaters, are committing spiritual adultery, and will without exception depart from Him and be lost (v. 5). Their names “shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters” (v. 13). The phrase “written in the earth” is in contrast to their names being “written in heaven” (Luke 10:20; Hebrews 12:23). Hell is in the bowels of the earth and that’s where every single person who is not looking wholly to the LORD will spend eternity (Revelation 20:11-15).

“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. 7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.” Proverbs 3:5-7

Trusting man is seen in the lives of many who claim to be saved and yet trust man’s medicine and counsel wholesale.

Let me get this straight, you pretend to be saved and yet run to some foolish sinner to get drugged for lack of peace or ability to sleep or depression. You are completely deceived and God is calling you to repent now. If you knew Him, would you not be trusting Him and not sinful mere men? “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).

Modern Sorcery Exposed

You’ve tried the CURSE and it never worked…. Are you ready to let CHRIST make you whole?

Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. 6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert (spiritually dry, desolate), and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited. 7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. 8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. 9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? 10 I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings. 11 As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool. 12 A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary. 13 O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters. 14 Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.” Jeremiah 17:5-14

Psychology/psychobabble, therapy from mere men, sinners…. is a scam, and leaves the victim without hope. Jesus Christ is the only hope for man’s core dilemma—which is sin! ANY person pointing you to a “THE-RAPIST” is demon inspired. They speak against the Word of God and are the child of the devil! See Colossians 2:6-10. SINNERS need the Savior—not some sinner with an indoctrination in the fine of art of applying bandages, never getting to the root. Repent now (Jeremiah 17:9). Jesus alone can make a man whole! (Luke 4:18)

Man’s therapy and psychobabble are laughably insufficient and have never once gotten to the root issue of man’s dilemma which is sin. Jesus says that He “came into the world to save sinners” (1 Timothy 1:15).

Drugs and psychobabble are laughable mere band aids to rob unbelievers, gullible dupes of their money.

“Jesus Christ maketh thee whole”

Only One can make you whole—the One who made you and died and rose again for you.

“And Peter said unto him, Aeneas, Jesus Christ maketh thee whole: arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately.” Acts 9:34

“Yep that’s me, the woman with the Alabaster box. And that is all I need—my alabaster box and Jesus! No need for meds or to be psycho-analyzed by some quack. One touch from Jesus is all I need! Just as the woman who touched the hem of His garment and was immediately healed! Luke 8: 43-48. One touch is all she needed.” Karen Cochran

Upholding Jesus, the Only Head of His Body [podcast]

YOUR first thought when you hear “God” or “Christianity” should be JESUS! Not some church, pastor, or church program! The ministry continually receives emails from people who have latched on to some mere man, his personality – instead of worshipping Christ supremely (Colossians 2:18-19). And in doing so, they defend those mere men angrily, doggedly, having never stopped to put them to the biblical test. “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try (test) the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” 1 John 4:1 “Not everything is at it seems. Their […]

THE SIN, THE CURSE, AND THE FRUIT OF IDOLATRY [podcast]

“Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the LORD your God.” Leviticus 26:1 Idolatry will damn the eternal soul to hell (Exodus 20:3-7; Galatians 5:19-21, etc.). Just one idol. ANYthing that is more important to you than Jesus Christ is an idol. You must repent and receive Christ or you will perish in the flames of eternal damnation (Luke 13:3; John 1:12). If you aren’t willing to give up your religion […]

Modern Day Cult of Personality Exposed [podcast]

What is the Cult of Personality?

“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” 1 John 4:1

Beware when you see any mere man enshrined, basically worshipped by his followers. This is all too common in today’s church world and sometimes it’s very subtle. When people begin putting what a mere man says above what God says in His Word, when they quote him instead of the Bible, you know you have a cult.

One source notes:

“A cult of personality, or a cult of the leader, is the result of an effort to create an idealized and heroic image of an admirable leader, often through unquestioning flattery and praise.”‘

CS Lewis has a cult following today, 100%. I’ve encountered it first hand. These people don’t care what you show them as far as the blatant falsehoods he spoke, and have soul tied their affections to him and will defend him no matter what.

A quick search on “what CS Lewis said about the Catholic church”…

“As an Anglican, C.S. Lewis shared many beliefs with the Catholic Church, including the Real Presence in the Eucharist, the necessity of confession, and a belief in Purgatory. However, he explicitly rejected papal authority, the concept of papal infallibility, and certain Marian doctrines.

Shared Beliefs

Lewis held a deeply sacramental and traditional view of Christianity, which aligned closely with Catholic theology:

The Sacraments: He regularly went to confession to a priest and viewed the Eucharist as central to the faith.

The Afterlife: He famously argued that “our souls demand Purgatory”, writing that we would naturally want to be cleansed of our sins before standing in God’s presence.

Devotion: He had a high view of saints and appreciated traditional liturgical practices.”

The same is true for modern day celebrities such as Candace Owens. On a recent live broadcast where she interviewed a man, he showed her live on air, that she was wrong about several things and kindly asked her to apologize several times. Regrettably, Candace was unwilling to apologize, and most of her cult followers backed her up, cheered her on.

She was called to account for false info and didn’t apologize when asked to.

Her followers cheered her on, never stopping to question things.

Their hearts are set on her not Christ (Colossians 3:1-4).

No matter WHAT she says, they believe it.

Wow.

Jesus says:

“I receive not honour from men. … 44 How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?” John 5:41, 44

By saying this, Jesus condemns putting trust in any mere man.

Jesus makes it clear here that anyone who puts their heart affections in a mere man or woman, is unable to believe on the LORD Jesus Christ for eternal life.

“And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another. 7 For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?” 1 Corinthians 4:6-7

“4:6 He first explains that in speaking about the Christian ministry and the tendency to follow human leaders (3:5-4:5), he used himself and Apollos as the examples. The Corinthians were not forming parties around Paul and Apollos alone, but also around other men who were then in their church. However, out of a sense of Christian courtesy and delicacy, Paul transferred the entire matter to himself and Apollos so that by their example the saints would learn not to have exaggerated opinions of their leaders or to gratify their pride by the formation of parties. He wanted the saints to evaluate everything and everyone by the Scriptures.
4:7 If one Christian teacher is more gifted than another, it is because God made him so. Everything he has, he received from the Lord. In fact it is true of all of us that everything we have has been given to us by God. That being the case, why should we be proud or puffed up? Our talents and gifts are not the result of our own cleverness.” Believer’s Bible Commentary

“I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.” John 8:37

“The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.” Proverbs 29:25

“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

“Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?” Isaiah 2:22

“LORD, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know how frail I am. 5 Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.” Psalms 139:4-5

“A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.” Jeremiah 17:12

“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrews 4:14-16

1 Corinthians 1:29-2:5

“that no flesh should glory in his presence. 30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31 that, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

2:1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 5 that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

“2:5 Paul knew that there was the utmost danger that his hearers might be interested in himself or in his own personality rather than in the living Lord. Conscious of his own inability to bless or to save, he determined that he would lead men to trust in God alone rather than in the wisdom of men. All who proclaim the gospel message or teach the word of God should make this their constant aim.” Believer’s Bible Commentary

“Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal.” Psalms 17:2

“Sentence” here means verdict.

Prayer of Repentance to be Restored to the LORD: Holy Father, in the name of Jesus Christ and by His precious blood He shed to make me one with You, I come to you—in my sinful state. LORD, I openly acknowledge that I have departed from You and sinfully rebelled against You in the sin of idolatry. Right this moment, if never before, I call upon You, Holy Father, asking You to forgive my sins, to change my life, to break me to the core of my being. I fully believe that Jesus Christ is God Almighty, that He came in the flesh, lived a sinless life as the very only begotten Son of God, died on the cross for the sins of mankind, was buried, rose again from the dead, and is soon going to return! I love You my LORD Jesus and from this moment forward, I am all Yours! I will follow You according to Your Word and Holy Spirit. Please fill me with Your Holy Ghost and use me every day of my life that You grant! In Jesus’ name, amen!

“Give Us a King!” [podcast]

“Give us a King.” 1 Samuel 8:6 As it was at the tower of Babel where fallen mankind sought to have their own way, do their own thing without God, independent of their Maker, so it is today (Genesis 11). Nimrod, an antichrist, ruled over them. Then when there was no king, anarchy reigned. “In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes.” Judges 17:6 Yet when the people wanted anarchy gone, instead of seeking the LORD, they raised up mere sinful men and yet, mankind is fallen. The final example […]

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 […]
