“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
Bow now or be broken later – and forever.
“In the first part of the verse, the stone is on the ground; in the second part, it is descending from above. This suggests the two Advents of Christ. When He came the first time, the Jewish leaders stumbled over Him and were broken to pieces. When He comes again, He will descend in judgment, scattering His enemies like dust.” Believer’s Bible Commentary
This parabolic discourse of Jesus, the chief cornerstone, seems to invite us to apply what is called “the law of double reference.” In how Christ is treated – honored or dishonored – this truth applies to the nation of Israel and also the individual saint of Christ.
“[whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder] Whoever throws himself on the mercy of Christ shall be broken and made contrite (Psa_34:18; Psa_51:17; Psa_147:3), but whoever rejects His mercy shall be completely crushed (Greek: likmao (G3039), be scattered like chaff, Mat_21:44; Luk_20:18). This scattering like chaff refers to the dispersion of the nation (Luk_21:24). The term “broken in pieces” refers to complete defeat and destruction in Isa_8:9; Jer_50:2; cp. Dan_2:35, Dan_2:44-45.” Dake
Top or Bottom?
“To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, 5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. 6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded. 7 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner, 8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.” 1 Peter 2:4-8
The Messiah was foretold to be “precious” to those who believe and “a rock of offence” to those who make the choice to defy and deny God’s only Savior, Jesus Christ.
“And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.” Isaiah 8:14
The Son of God, the very One who is the prophesied Messiah in the above passage, taught the essential necessity of utter humility in the lives of all who will know and walk with Him.
“And (the false religionists, Pharisees) love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues, 7 And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi. 8 But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. 9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. 10 Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ. 11 But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. 12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.” Matthew 23:6-12
The Jewish Messiah came in a humble fashion, as a Lamb when they expected Him to come the first time to destroy their enemies with physical force. If I am following the Messiah, He is my Master and I am becoming more and more of a servant as He was (Philippians 2). When He promotes me it is for the purpose of exalting and serving Him and His people in a greater fashion, not to be exalted in the sight of men (Ps. 75:5-6). If I am to “grow in grace” it is in order that I may know and love Him more and in order to serve His people more fully (2 Pet. 1:2, 3:18).
This short life is not the occasion to be exalted among men, but rather to exalt the only One worthy to be exalted.
“And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.” John 12:32
Yes, I know He is speaking of His own death to save us and yet I must take liberty to ask: are we lifting Him up? One of the clearest ways we lift up the Savior, is to lift up His will, which is His Word, by doing it. In this and through this men will see His goodness in you and glorify your Father in Heaven (Matt. 5:16).
Where are my motives in serving God? Why do I want to be in leadership in the Body of Christ? Why do I want to sing in the choir, preach, teach Sunday School, greet, write a book, have a ministry, etc.? Is it to be seen of men like the religious hypocrites of Christ’s day? Or, is it to lift up the downtrodden, see God heal the brokenhearted, give hope to the hopeless, and exalt the King of all kings? Is this not why Christ came? (Luke 4:18; Jn. 12:32; Col. 1:17-19)
Christ is to be magnified in all things in the lives of those whom He has redeemed:
“Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.” Philippians 1:20
Please read the following words carefully and prayerfully. These are not the words of any mere man. These are the words of the Alpha and the Omega, the One who spoke the worlds into existence and now upholds them by the very word He spoke when He created all things. Jesus Christ is the One who created, sustains, and owns all things, yet came to this earth to serve us (John 1:10). The text below is paramount to understanding and walking in your God-given purpose in this life as you follow Christ in what He did in His time here on the earth, as He showed us the Father (Jn. 14:9).
“Then came to him the mother of Zebedee’s children with her sons, worshipping him, and desiring a certain thing of him. And he said unto her, What wilt thou? She saith unto him, Grant that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on the left, in thy kingdom. But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They say unto him, We are able. And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father. And when the ten heard it, they were moved with indignation against the two brethren. But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them. But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.” Matthew 20:20-28
Jesus came to serve us and commanded us to do what He did – serve others.
“Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 2:3-5
BELOVED, WHO DO WE THINK WE ARE?
If you have anything good about you at all, God is to be blamed (Rom. 3:10; 7:18). Every good and perfect gift originates from Him, and not from us (James 1:17). We have no existence without Him who is our life.
Take a look at what Paul says about the giftings we have all been given on loan:
“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 (boast), as if thou hadst not received it?” 1 Corinthians 4:7
If we have been given something, that means it didn’t originate with us. Right? It also means that God gave the gift(s) to us to serve others, not just ourselves (1 Pet. 4:10-11). So, why do we arrogantly boast in our hearts as if we are better than others because of something God Himself gave us? Rather we should be using those gifts to serve His people (1 Peter 4:10-11).
“For who maketh thee to differ from another? What hast thou that thou didst not receive? If thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory (boast), as if thou hadst not received it?” 1 Corinthians 4:7
We don’t own the giftings resident in our lives. These inherent gifts are merely on loan to us from the LORD. Each of us are responsible to God for the stewardship of these tools of service and will one day give account for how we chose to use them. Am I using them to serve Him and His people? Or, am I utilizing His gifts in me to glorify my own name?
“As every man hath received the gift, even so minister (use in service) the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.” 1 Peter 4:10-11
The crucified life will bring about the producing of His good fruit in us and the fruitful use of the gifts He placed in each of us (Rom. 1:11; Phil. 2:3-5).
More questions from God:
“Shall the ax boast itself against him that heweth therewith? or shall the saw magnify itself against him that shaketh it? as if the rod should shake itself against them that lift it up, or as if the staff should lift up itself, as if it were no wood.” Isaiah 10:15
GOD HATES ARROGANCE
“Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for the LORD is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.” 1 Samuel 2:3
“The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.” Proverbs 8:13
“And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.” Isaiah 13:11
It is abundantly clear in the aforementioned verses of Scripture that the LORD will humble those who refuse to humble themselves. He also stated:
“But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth (sets Himself against) the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.” James 4:6
The prideful heart is a deceived heart:
“For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.” Galatians 6:3
THE CURE FOR ARROGANCE
“For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.” Romans 12:3
“He hath showed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?” Micah 6:8
“He must increase, but I must decrease.” John 3:30
O that God would place in us the fleshly heart of a true servant who serves Him and others regardless of whether or not any man is looking or that he receives any reward on this earth.
YOUR PREDESTINATION
“For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.” Romans 8:29
God did “predestinate [us] to be conformed to the image of his Son.” You might respond to this Scriptural truth by asking “Okay, what does it mean to be conformed to the image of Jesus Christ the Son of God?” Here is God’s answer:
“Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.” Philippians 2:5-8
Unlike Christ, many today want to be somebody who is known and elevated among men in this fleeting life. Many of those in places of leadership today act as if they are God’s gift to the world instead of possessing the heart posture of a humble servant. They are not dead to self and therefore not “alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord” (Rom. 6:11). These are those “whose god is their belly (sinful appetites)” (Phil. 3:17-21). They are “enemies of the cross of Christ” – they are not dying to the sinful nature and therefore desire to be exalted amidst God’s people. Many in leadership make a “vain show” or “fair show in the flesh” (Ps. 39:5-6; Gal. 6:12). They reign as kings in the midst of the people. These serve themselves as they build their own kingdoms upon the sand foundation of depraved and finite self, and miss the unspeakable joy and opportunity to build upon the Rock of salvation Himself, the only real and eternal “foundation…which is Jesus Christ” (1 Cor. 3:11). In doing this, they are leading “many” astray as Christ promised the “false prophets” would do in the last days (Matt. 25:3-5; 11, 24).
In stark contrast to those who seek their own glory, the very Creator and King of all kings Himself came to earth and “made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant” (Phil. 2:7).
Serving self in the midst of a ministry leadership role can be so very subtle. Most who engage in such don’t even realize it because the sin of pride and arrogancy blind the heart and mind (Heb. 3:13). They are fully responsible for this sin because God commands all who will be His to humble themselves in His holy sight.
Overseers have the responsibility of being servant-leaders among God’s people. This is their calling:
“The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed: Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; Neither as being lords over God’s heritage, but being ensamples to the flock. And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.” 1 Peter 5:1-4
Friend, where are we allowing ourselves to be led? The Word tells us that “the leaders of this people cause them to err and they that are led of them are destroyed” (Isa. 9:16). We are also warned not to be “led away with the error of the wicked” (2 Pet. 3:17). Just as Jesus and His holy apostles and prophets foretold, blind leaders are leading to damnation millions who believe they are following Christ (Matt. 24:3-5, 11, 24; 1 Tim. 4:1-3; 2 Tim. 3:13; 4:2-5; 1 Jn. 4:1-3).
There are several people revealed in the Bible who started off right in their leadership calling, yet ended up destroyed. These are apostates. Remember Saul, Lot’s wife, and Judas? These all have one thing in common – pride, rebellion, and arrogance. These were people who were in God’s grace and anointed for leadership by Him, but refused to remain humbled before His presence. This tragedy is the same thing we see happening today among many who now occupy leadership positions within the visible church world at large. They hold and have remained in leadership positions while they have departed “from the faith” (1 Tim. 4:1-3). The Bible foretold that in the final days some would “depart from the faith” not the pulpit (1 Tim. 4:1-3).
According to the Holy Spirit speaking through the apostle Paul, one must “keep under” his body – the sinful nature – if he will prevent becoming ultimately “castaway” from the LORD eternally (1 Cor. 9:27).
THE STONE
“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
Did you catch that?! Will you humble yourself or will God have to humble you eternally by confining your conscious soul to hell? Will you be voluntarily broken before God, or in judgment be crushed to fine powder (destroyed)? God never fails – the choice lies with the individual (Lk. 21:19, 34-36; 2 Tim. 2:11-13). One will choose to willingly and obediently fall upon the Rock of all ages and be broken, or, he will soon be crushed to powder by the Lion of Judah in His retribution of all rebellious souls (Amos 9:10; Isa. 1:19-20; 2 Thess. 1:7-10; Rev. 19:12-16).
“Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.” James 4:10
THE MORE we grow in His grace, the more we will realize how nothing we are and how everything He is! THE STONE: Top or Bottom? Will you willingly repent, humble yourself, and put all your faith in Jesus Christ, OR will you be ground to powder?
Prayer for the Humility of Christ
O Father, please remove every trace of self- glorification, vain glory, and arrogance from my being. Let not this left hand know what this right hand is doing. This moment I choose to humble myself under Your mighty divine hand and to realize I am nothing and can do nothing without You Jesus. LORD, thank You for Your example. Please teach me to know You in true humility as I serve Your precious people and the lost souls You were crucified and raised again to save. LORD, I now present my body a living sacrifice to Thee. Please grant my heart Your influencing grace to walk in divine true humility that I may be well pleasing in Thy site this day and forward. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Calvinism Demolished [podcast]
Calvinists Define their Un-biblical, Extra-biblical Belief System with the Acrostic TULIP:
T – Total Depravity
U – Unconditional Election
L – Limited Atonement
I – Irresistible Grace
P – Perseverance of the Saints
Romans 2:11 and 1 John 2:2 immediately prove that all of Calvinism is demonic heresy. ANY fraud who is teaching calvinism is “accursed.” (Galatians 1:6-9)
Calvinists falsely teach that Jesus only died for a certain elect few people. But God’s Word says – “And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.” (1 John 2:2)
The Calvinist’s nightmare Bible verse is 1 John 2:2. I’ve literally seen devils/demons manifest when quoting this Scripture verse to calvinists. “Doctrines of devils” such as calvinism come from “seducing spirits.” (1 Timothy 4:1-2)
John Calvin was a demon-possessed philosopher who wrote volumes of heresy with little Scripture. He lives today through his writings and tells gullible men what the Bible says. They’d rather read Calvin’s doctrines of devils which contradict Scripture rather than seek the LORD for themselves in His Word, allowing the Almighty to speak for Himself (2 Timothy 2:15; 3:15-17). As an example of his bearing false witness against the LORD, John Calvin wrote:
“…salvation is freely offered to some while others are barred from access to it.” (John Calvin, Institutes of Christian Religion, Book 3, Chapter 21, Paragraph 5)
Make no mistake, the words above are the words of a demon, a devil, Satan. Jesus says Satan has come “to steal, to kill, and to destroy” but that He, our Savior Jesus, came “that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” (John 10:10) Satan seeks to steal the hope and the eternal souls of as many as who would believe his lies.
Heretics act as if they can skip over and ignore volumes of Bible verses that contradict OSAS and Calvinism and not have to give account to God in the end. Delusional (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12).
Calvinism is demonic and so is the heresy of eternal security.
Calvinism teaches that God wills, has foreordained to damn individuals. John Calvin taught that the fall of man was God’s will.
“I admit that in this miserable condition wherein men are now bound, all of Adam’s children have fallen by God’s will.” (John Calvin, Institutes of Christian Religion, Book 3, Chapter 23, Paragraph 4)
To the contrary, God says sin is man’s fault, not His:
“Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: 14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. 15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.” James 1:13-15
“With Augustine (a roman catholic heretic!) I say: the Lord has created those whom he unquestionably foreknew would go to destruction. This has happened because he has willed.” (John Calvin, Institutes of Christian Religion, Book 3, Chapter 23, Paragraph 5)
To the contrary, Jesus told us that it is SATAN who has come “to steal, to kill, and to destroy” and that Jesus came to give us “life…more abundantly” and “that he might destroy the works of the devil.” (John 10:10; 1 John 3:8).
“The thief (Satan) cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” John 10:10
“I HATE this false teaching! What would God be ‘longsuffering’ for if people were created for demise.” Antonio O’Neal
Notice what the Holy Spirit told us through the apostle John:
“He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.” 1 John 3:8
That verse didn’t say that Satan made anyone sin nor that God ordained it. Clearly inferred is that man chooses to sin – “He that committeth sin.” Because some men choose to live in sin instead of for the LORD, they are “of the devil.” ….. “the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.”
Jesus taught that “MEN loved darkness rather than light, because THEIR (own) deeds were evil (not His!).” (John 3:19-21)
“And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.” John 3:19
Calvinists blasphemously attribute evil and sin to the LORD who is “Holy, holy, holy.” (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8) They love to use Isaiah 45:7 out of context.
“I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.” Isaiah 45:7
God only creates evil if you will in the sense that HE allows all to choose good or evil, darkness or light (John 3:19-21). This can be in the same sense as He spoke of in Deuteronomy 30:19-20 where He told His people that He sets before them “life and death, blessing and cursing.”
“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
Typically, calvinists purposely refuse to look at the full counsel of God’s Word and hyper interpret, over emphasize, go to seed on 1 verse here and there, while ignoring the whole counsel of Scripture, as they are hell bent on promulgating certain heretical misinterpretations.
1 John 2:2 alone disproves the whole grace-perverting extra-biblical system of calvinism. “THE SINS OF THE WHOLE WORLD” is a death nail to the diabolical scam called calvinism.
WHY did Jesus tell us He was going to “draw ALL men” to Himself if He had no desire to save “ALL men”? (John 12:32)
Cursed Calvinism: Jesus promised He was going to “draw ALL men” to Himself when He went to the cross (John 12:32). God would never draw someone He didn’t desire to save – and Jesus told us that “ALLLL” men were going to be drawn to Him to be saved. Calvinist is a gross perversion of the original Gospel and character of Christ! It’s a false gospel and anyone preaching it is “accursed.” (Galatians 1:6-9)
WHY did Jesus say He was going to “draw ALL men” to Himself if He had no intention of saving them? John 12:32
How is it that you deny that Jesus “is the propitiation (atoning sacrifice) for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of THE WHOLE WORLD”? (1 John 2:2)
Calvinists love to misread Romans 9-11. They reject the knowledge of God here where it is once again revealed, as is repeatedly the case, that God desires to “have mercy on ALLLLLL.”
“For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon ALL.” Romans 11:32
“All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us ALL.” Isaiah 53:6
Jesus died to save “EVERY man.”
“But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death FOR EVERY MAN.” Hebrews 2:9
Calvinism is an antichrist cult….There are more than one proof of this, including that they learn from mere men, they indoctrinate their prey, and they uphold the doctrines of sinful men (reformers) above God’s Word.
“Let God be true, but every man a liar…” Romans 3:4
What did God give us to know His “doctrine”?
“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17
Cults are known in that they have a faulty foundation – they rest on something other than God’s Word and are therefore built on sinking sound (Matthew 7:15-29).
The calvinist seeks to see the Bible through calvinism instead of seeing calvinism through the Bible.
Like the pharisees of Jesus’ day, most calvinists are more intent upon holding to a heretical tradition than to the Word of God (Mark 7:6-10).
“Calvinism comes from Gnostic, Greek philosophy that Augustine learned and mixed in with Christianity.” unknown (Calvin repeatedly admitted that he got his doctrines from Augustine. Augustine was a catholic
“Who will have ALLLLL men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.” 1 Timothy 2:4
John Calvin admittedly revealed that he was getting his doctrines from the Catholic Augustine (a total fraud). All of Catholicism, from its very inception, was Antichrist. Therefore anything coming out of it is cursed. It is a cursed tree which cannot bear good fruit.
Calvinism is a twisted, demonic system of heresies that grossly malign the character and Gospel of Jesus Christ. 1 verse destroys the false foundation upon which the heretical system of calvinism is built. 1 John 2:2 case closed.
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“Attacking Calvinism isn’t loving your neighbor. You are neglecting Ephesians 1:4. Calvinism is biblical. If you want a target of false doctrine to focus on, the Prosperity Gospel is a huge one. The Bible must be read in context.”
REPLY:
Since Calvinism is pure demonic heresy, attacking Calvinism is attacking and exposing satan which is the mandate of God to all who know Him.
“Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.” Jude 3
You only defend this system, this “doctrine of devils” due to not studying God’s Word for yourself and instead, following Satan’s wolves.
Loving the LORD is more important than loving your neighbor and when you love the LORD you don’t following heresies.
1 John 2:2 alone slays the demonic system of Calvinism. Case closed.
Repent and follow Jesus, not wolves who are His enemies.
History of Calvinism – Rooted in Catholicism and Murder | DOES Mankind Have Free Will?
One disciple writes: “The Calvinists act like these devils (their idolized reformers like Calvin) invented the Bible itself when they were born 1500 to 1600 years later. These rats were the worst people like Calvin, John Knox, Luther and another rat named Huldrych Zwingli who murdered the real reformers—like the Anabaptists and other sects—by the tens of thousands and were evil satanic tyrants. They raped and tortured their way to power. If you do not believe me look up the persecution and murder of the Anabaptists, along with reformation leaders who tortured and killed dissidents with the numbers into the hundreds of thousands. Look it up because the great truth is these snakes were so evil and arrogant with their fake self-righteous holiness that they wrote it all down for all to read. Evil people. Even today people will tell me they purely made up the story of Jew-hater Luther and the ink well. All made up 100 years later and the original story was of a fight between him and a monk over a prostitute. Just saying there are tons of myths from the so-called Church fathers. Some of them where wicked and insane. Don’t believe me, look it up. But don’t go to the reformed historians because they lie though their teeth. Even Catholic historians tell more truth about the horrors of the burning times. Go to secular sources who tell it like it was. Years ago, when I used to preach on this topic, I got more death threats from reformers than Muslims because they serve their fake reformed gods above Bible truth.”

THE ANTICHRISTS ARE MULTIPLYING [podcast]
Jesus’ apostle John told us there were “MANY antichrists” in His day (1 John 2:18). THOSE FLAMING HERETICS WHO DENY THAT JESUS CHRIST IS GOD ARE ANTICHRISTS OF THE MOST PROFOUND DEGREE. SUCH REBELS DO NOT KNOW HIM. John the apostle also writes: “…Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life” (1 John 5:20,21). Read that again. Memorize it.
How can we know who the “many antichrists” are among us? (1 John 2:18)
“Antichrist” means against and in place of. An “antichrist” puts something in front of “the doctrine of Christ” given us in the record of Holy Scripture. They replace what Scripture records with something, anything else.
Doctrine – a belief or set of beliefs held and taught by a Church, political party, or other group.
The Eternal Word, Jesus Christ, “the Word was Made Flesh, and Dwelt Among Us.”
“And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.” John 1:14
“God was manifest in the flesh.“ 1 Timothy 3:16
Since human blood had been contaminated by sin, of necessity it had to be divine blood shed for mankind’s sin – hence the prophetic utterances and fulfullment of a virgin conceiving by the Holy Spirit – and the Word, the “mighty God” Himself being made flesh to dwell among us and die for our sins (Isaiah 7:14; 9:6-7; Matthew 1:21-23, etc.).
“Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.” Acts 20:28
The biblical doctrine of the deity of Christ is simply that Jesus Christ is God manifest in the flesh (John 1; 1 Timothy 3:16, etc.).
1 John 4:2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ IS COME IN THE FLESH is of God:
1 John 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ IS COME IN THE FLESH is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
2 John 7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ IS COME IN THE FLESH. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
“Immanuel”
“Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.” Isaiah 7:14
“Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.” Matthew 1:23
Of necessity, perfect blood had to be shed to atone for the sins of fallen mankind and this required that God do such Himself – hence Jesus Christ, the Eternal Word, came to the earth, born of a virgin, and was “God with us.” He alone qualified. No man, no sinner qualified (Isaiah 59:16; Ezekiel 22:30). There was no other way.
“And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him.” Isaiah 59:16
“And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none.” Ezekiel 22:30
Jesus Christ is God’s man to redeem man. We owe a debt we cannot pay. He came and paid a debt He did not owe.
“This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.” 1 Timothy 1:15
What does God’s Word say about the deity of Jesus Christ? – Jesus Christ is equal to and identical with God.
“Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:” Philippians 2:6
“That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father (because the Son is also God). He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.” John 5:23
The Eternal God, the Word, was by a miracle conceived and born of a virgin – “A virgin shall conceive.”
“A virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.” Isaiah 9:6-7
“And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.” 1 Timothy 3:16
Three times the Bible tells us that “Jesus Christ IS COME IN THE FLESH” (1 John 4:2-3; 2 John 7). In other words “GOD was manifest in the flesh” (1 Timothy 3:16).
From the inception of the New Testament church, the antichrist Gnostics and Origen and other heretics taught that Jesus Christ was not God. The same evil spirit that possessed them possesses the modern antichrists who go about as a roving band to make twofold children of hell after themselves (Matthew 23:15).
You will notice also how these antichrists HATE the real Bible, the King James Bible. Why? The devil himself possesses them and it was the devil who empowered evil men to concoct the fake “bibles” so many today read – “bibles” which deny the deity of Christ. Here’s but one example of such:
1 Timothy 3:16
KJB: And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
NIV: Beyond all question, the mystery of godliness is great: He appeared in a body, was vindicated by the Spirit, was seen by angels, was preached among the nations, was believed on in the world, was taken up in glory.
ESV: Great indeed, we confess, is the mystery of godliness: He was manifested in the flesh, vindicated by the Spirit, seen by angels, proclaimed among the nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.
NLT: Without question, this is the great mystery of our faith: Christ was revealed in a human body and vindicated by the Spirit. He was seen by angels and announced to the nations. He was believed in throughout the world and taken to heaven in glory.
In this one example, we see here that the KJB clearly states that it was God who was manifested in the flesh while the modern translations obscure the passage by removing and replacing “God” with “He.” He appeared in a body? Well, just who appeared in a body? We’ve all appeared in a body. Come on now. Also, these are new age “bibles,” concocted by Satan, that are preparing people to receive the antichrist and so they had to steal the identity and glory of the real Christ!
What does it reveal to us that Satan’s children are attacking the King James Bible and the deity of Jesus Christ? Hmmmmm.
Whenever you see the most evil of Satan’s children hating these things, you can deduce that it’s Satan himself behind it all. And have you noticed that they make accusations without any evidence?
EMAIL RECEIVED:
“Since I’m still on your email list…. why are you mistreating women truthseekers on Facebook? It’s very disturbing. You are insulting the spirit while claiming you are 💯 without any theological error. YOU ARE WRONG.
Your beloved KJV has errors. I just went through that eye opening study. Holy GHOST 👻??? This is a serious mistranslation among hundreds of others. The TRINITY? The anointed Messiah Christ King Jesus did not claim to be the Almighty. There is ONE God who can’t die or be tempted and is not a man.
At least treat other believers with more respect, drop the pride and study YOUR BIBLE again. You are absolutely NOT getting it all right.
In truth,” Jennifer
REPLY:
Communicating God’s truth, Word, is not “mistreating women” or men or anyone else. Yet you are using this occasion to make this look sexist? Truth is only “disturbing” to you because you are a vile, demonic heretic who wouldn’t know Jesus if He stood in your rebellious face.
God is calling you to repent.
You are an antichrist…. For denying the deity of Jesus Christ.
Repent now sinner.
JESUS SAYS:
“I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, THE ALMIGHTY.” Revelation 1:8
Jesus Christ is God – and anyone who denies such is the most evil of antichrists. | See Jesus Christ is God
To be saved, one must repent and believe on Christ according to “the record that God gave of his Son.”
“He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.” 1 John 5:10
Rebels love butchered, toned down, satanically stripped fake “bibles”. The King James Bible uses “Holy Ghost” and because they’ve been demonized to ridiculously think that the word “ghost” always refers to demons. They are trained by Hollywood and so they can’t understand that He, the Spirit of God, is the “HOLY Ghost” and not any other ghost, spirit. There are spirits, evil spirits, and there is the “HOLY Spirit.” She foolishly conflates and assumes any and all spirits are unholy. Not.
“Holy Ghost” appears 183 times in God’s Word. Yet as you will see for yourself, this antichrist woman, who denies Jesus Christ is God, has foolishly listened to antichrists and pretends to know better than the unspeakably educated scholars who translated the King James Bible as they were guided by the Holy Ghost Himself – in fulfillment of the prophecy of Psalms 12:6-7. See 2 Peter 1:19-21.
You will notice that she doesn’t even respect the LORD enough to capitalize “Spirit” as in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Ghost. Take a look.
“The antichrist spirit is strong in that woman. Just plain nonsense in her comment. She made it clear who her god is and it’s not Jesus Christ or the Father. She doesn’t even know who the Holy Spirit is.” B.
Keep in mind saints that people like Jennifer, above, have been sent “strong delusion” from God Himself for not loving His truth (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12). This is all “after the working of SATAN” himself. When you read this important passage, you will witness how God actually takes it personally when people do not receive the love of His truth.
Some Gnostics adamantly deny that the supreme being, God Almighty, came in the flesh, claiming Jesus to be merely a human who attained enlightenment through gnosis and taught his disciples to do the same.
One writer notes:
“Make no mistake, however: There are professing Christians who reject essential doctrine about the person and work of Jesus Christ and who can therefore rightly be labelled heretics. I recently read a two-views book, which centred on the question of whether or not Jesus is God. Both writers claim to be Christian. Both, in fact, claimed to be evangelical Christians. By his rejection of Jesus Christ as divine, however, one of the authors negated his claim to being Christian. Christians do not reject the divinity of Jesus Christ. But that is exactly the error into which the Gnostics fell.
The Gnostics ‘denie[d] that Jesus is the Christ.’ John and his fellow apostles preached Jesus as the Messiah prophesied in the Old Testament. The Gnostics rejected this teaching and, as such, minimised the biblical teaching on the person and work of Christ. And their teaching invalidated their claims that they were Christian.”
John did not consider these Christ-denying “antichrists” to never have been Christians. No, they only departed from the body of Christ because they departed from the faith which Scripture tells us some would do (1 Timothy 4:1). Instead he says that “they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us” (1 John 2:19).
They only departed from the true believers because they chose not to “abideth (does not continue) … in the doctrine of Christ” and the fact that Jesus Christ the Messiah is God is abundantly obvious from Genesis to Revelation. See Isaiah 7:14; 9:6-7; Micah 5:2; Matthew 1:21-23, etc.).
2 John 9 is key. Memorize it.
“Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth (remains) in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: 11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.” 2 John 9-11
Nothing could be more integral concerning “the doctrine of Christ” than that He is God Almighty. Any person denying such is a child of the devil, 100%.
In 1 John 2:19, interestingly, the word “never” does not appear in this verse above which is so often used to “prove” OSAS. Let’s read it again with an objective mind. And, also remember what Jesus says about the primary importance of His teaching of the seed and the soil, the sower and the Word:
“And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?” Mark 4:13

Warning Concerning Antichrists – Read this Closely
1 John 2:18-27
“Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. 19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us. 20 But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things. 21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth. 22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. 23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also. 24 Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father. 25 And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life. 26 These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you. 27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.

Mission Mexico Part 26
Our LORD is Changing Lives here in Mexico
Last week our brother in Christ Vicente had a financial need and you met that need for Vicente and his family.
I brought him the money and he was… absolutely elated. He had been telling me about this pretty serious need for a few weeks. Finally I brought him the money he needed. God is able amen saints.
Update: Vicente update: I ran into our brother Vicente this morning and he was ministering to some men who were a work crew right outside of his restaurant on the street. I quickly handed him about 40 JESUS tracts and he began passing them to the men. Going to be supplying Vicente with more of the JESUS tract in Spanish soon.
Our brother is super overjoyed for the help he received to get his family vehicle repaired.
Jesus is God.
He’s coming.
More on the ministry to the Spanish speaking peoples of our LORD’s world! In the fellowship with the Florida group, a dear lady named Hilda repented and received Christ. Thank you for thanking our LORD for saving her and for His perfect will to be done in Hilda’s life. Phil 1:6
Excellent fruitful ministry time with Alex today. He’s also been sent the Born Again book in Spanish (PDF). Would you like to pause and ask God to bless, to save this man? (Ps 2:8; Acts 3:26)
Your prayers and support make this mission work to these beautiful, ultra-receptive people possible.
No religious organization or rich people support this Gospel mission. God is the Author of it!
Thousands have received the Gospel by the spoken ministry of the Word in Spanish and the JESUS tract.
“WE are labourers TOGETHER with God.” 1 Cor 3:9
“Matthew 5:3! No one wants to be in a humble state of submission in America. Even the so-called Christians! And be needy and weak. Like a little child. They pride themselves on all they can do. And why do I need God I can do it myself! This is why I love hearing testimonies of the people of Mexico who are poor in spirit, meek and humble! Without this you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.” Karen Cochran
Thank you for lifting in prayer the Mexican people – that many more will be saved and established in Christ (1 Timothy 2:4).
