“In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight: 23 If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;” Colossians 1:22-23

Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith” …

“As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: 7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.” Colossians 2:6-7

Fearing man means we don’t truly fear God.

“The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?” Psalms 118:6

It’s the fruit of self-preservation because our lives are not laid down flat. We are not truly crucified with Christ if we still fear mere man. If you are on the LORD’s side, plant your feet firmly in the Holy Scriptures (His divine truth given you in His written Word) and let the chips fall where they may. Cease from the fear of mere men. Read this: Isaiah 2:22; Luke 12:4-5; Ecclesiastes 12:13; Psalms 2:11.

“And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.” 1 Kings 18:21

When conciliation is something we do because we want to “keep the peace” with any mere man, and yet compromise divinely stated truth, it becomes sin. This reveals our lack of the fear of the LORD. When our lives are truly laid down, we fear God, and we will fear no mere man.

“And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:27

Is Divine Truth Important?

The only true unity of the true remnant saints of Christ is on the basis of Christ’s truth which is given us in His written Word (John 8:47; 10:35). If you compromise, it will come back to haunt you.

Listen to Christ’s apostle John and notice how many times he uses the word “truth” here to God’s people in the first 4 verses of 2 John. Also note how he intertwines and connects the truth with love:

“1 The elder unto the elect lady and her children, whom I love in the truth; and not I only, but also all they that have known the truth; 
2  For the truth’s sake, which dwelleth in us, and shall be with us for ever. 
3  Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. 
4  I rejoiced greatly that I found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father.”

WHY do true disciples of Jesus rejoice? – “I rejoiced greatly that I found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father.” (2 John 1:4)

The truth sanctifies those who receive and obey it:

“Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.” John 17:17

Fearing God

“Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law (Word); fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye afraid of their revilings.” Isaiah 51:7

It’s time to mature and to stand resolute and grounded in the faith of Christ, full of His Spirit and truth.

“That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:” Ephesians 4:14-15

What we speak should be simply God’s Word (2 Timothy 4:2; 1 Peter 4:11) and never be tainted by what WE think is going to be mere man’s reaction to that divine truth. We are to fear God and not mere men. We ourselves are our own idols if we are not possessed by the holy fear of the LORD.

A thorough study of the fear of the LORD is life-changing. Searching out, selecting, and writing those verses on index cards can be eternally altering!
The LORD is able! Are we willing and obedient to Him (Isaiah 1:18-20)?

If our unity with someone is in jeopardy due to speaking His truth in love, then perhaps that person doesn’t belong in our lives. We are going in different directions. That’s unequal yoking.

Who did Paul fear?

“For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.” Galatians 1:10

Does who we fear prove/reveal if we are right with God? Or, not right with Him? Read the above verse again please.

Why do you attempt to protect someone from hearing the truth of their Maker and Judge of their eternal souls? Do you not understand that conviction is a gift from God – out of His mercy? If someone is offended by His truth, that means they needed to be and God is at work in them to convict and save them before it’s too late. Do you have a problem with that? Whose side are you really on?

If a person doesn’t love the truth and won’t hear it, they are not of God – regardless of what relationship they may have had with the LORD in the past. They are fallen away. The fruit of their lives indicates that they are not abiding (remaining) in Christ (John 15:1-16).

If someone gets upset because you spoke the LORD’s truth, so be it. You are called to be identified with Christ and not mere men.

“Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?” Galatians 4:16

Get this in your heart:

“For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? 4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.” Romans 3:3-4

Friend, if you are going to truly follow Christ, as He promises, you will be persecuted in many ways in this brief life (Matthew 5:10-12; 10:22, etc.).

You are no longer your own but now bought with the price of His blood (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). You are Christ’s “ambassador” and “minister of reconciliation” (2 Corinthians 5:20).

A reading of the New Testament Scriptures plainly reveals that Jesus and His apostles were greatly hated and persecuted and so shall we be if we truly follow Christ:

“31 Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows. 
32  Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. 
33  But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven. 
34  Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. 
35  For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. 
36  And a man’s foes shall be they of his own household. 
37  He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 
38  And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me. 
39  He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it. 
40  He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.” Matthew 10:31-40

—- IF you haven’t heard this and Scripture like this preached, read, or taught in your local church in a while, it’s because you have submitted yourself to and are endorsing a wolf. You are now helping the enemies of the LORD and under His holy wrath (2 Chronicles 19:2). You have bid God speed (Blessed and endorsed) the very enemy of the LORD (2 John 1:9-11).

Young’s Literal Translation YLT Exposed

by Will Kinney

Anyone who tries to pawn off Young’s “literal” translation as being the infallible words of God simply does not know what he is talking about. It is not even a good translation. It is little more than a passing footnote in the ever changing panorama of perverted bible versions that have come and gone over the years.

There is only one Bible that has stood the test of time and its critics. There is only one Bible that is believed and defended by thousands of Bible believers today as being the true “book of the LORD”- the Authorized King James Holy Bible – celebrating over 400 years of being THE Bible of the English speaking people.

Let’s compare a bit:

One that made me laugh out loud when I first saw it was 1 Kings 18:21.

Here we read in the KJB: “And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long HALT YE BETWEEN TWO OPINIONS? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.”

But Youngs “literal” has: “and Elijah cometh nigh unto all the people, and saith, `TILL WHEN ARE YE LEAPING ON THE TWO BRANCHES? — if Jehovah [is] God, go after Him; and if Baal, go after him;’ and the people have not answered him a word.”

—————

Here is the YLT telling us Jesus had to be saved which would mean He was a sinner:

Zechariah 9:9 KJB – “Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, AND HAVING SALVATION; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.”

Youngs – “Rejoice exceedingly, O daughter of Zion, Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem, Lo, thy King doth come to thee, Righteous — AND SAVED IS HE, Afflicted — and riding on an ass, And on a colt — a son of she-asses.”

—————

Acts 11:26 KJB – “And the disciples WERE CALLED Christians first in Antioch.”

Young’s 1898 – “the disciples also WERE DIVINELY CALLED first in Antioch Christians.”

The KJB and almost every other Bible reads: “And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples WERE CALLED Christians first in Antioch.

—————

Youngs’ “literal” has many examples of mind-boggling, ridiculous readings as well.

In Psalms 141:7 we read: “Our bones are scattered at the grave’s mouth, as when ONE CUTTETH AND CLEAVETH WOOD upon the earth.

But in Youngs we see: Psalm 141:7 “As ONE TILLING AND RIPPING UP THE LAND, Have our bones been scattered AT THE COMMAND OF SAUL.” (Say What?)

—————

1 Samuel 25:22 “So and more also do God unto the enemies of David, if I leave of all that pertain to him by the morning light any that PISSETH AGAINST THE WALL.” (Green – “urinates against the wall.”)

But Young has: “thus doth God do to the enemies of David, and thus He doth add, if I leave of all that he hath till the light of the morning — of THOSE SITTING ON THE WALL.”

Apostasy

Jacked Up Jezebel Rebuked [podcast]


“Jezebel is a widely rampant spirit of rebellion that is hard to get rid of, rooted in pride, self-will, and self-sufficiency. Only the LORD can deliver but only if the individual truly repents and submits to Him, to His Word.” Anita Villarreal

Any person defending this jezebel heresy that women can be pastors, elders over men, is under the control of Satan, period. And in need of true repentance (James 4:7).

—-There are NO female apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, or teachers under the New Testament (Ephesians 4:8, 11-12). Jesus gave these “gifts unto MEN.” (Ephesians 4:8) There is not even one woman mentioned in 27 books as an elder over Christ’s flock. Such is clearly forbidden (1 Timothy 2:11-12). In Acts 21:9 we read of Phillip’s daughters which “did prophesy” which is a gift of the Spirit (one of the nine-1 Corinthians 12:7-10). The office gifts are eldership functions for men called to be overseers over Christ’s flock, which is completely different than the gifts of the Spirit which every believer can function in and certainly women are seen doing such as Phillip’s daughters and how women are mentioned concerning operating in the gifts of the Spirit in 1 Corinthians 14.

Classic case of a jezebel lashing out when the Word of GOD corrects her (2 Timothy 3:16-17). Her rebellion is against God. Jezebel is utterly rebellious. She hates what God’s Word says and so the demons that control jezebels will lash out in personal attacks against the men who stand on the truth unwaveringly (such as did Elijah whom Jezebel sought to kill).

“Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.” 1 Timothy 2:11-14

“As I look around America I ask myself who can find a virtuous woman? Whose whole life is surrendered to God. And centered in the fear of the Lord. No woman will submit to their husbands unless they first submit to God. Ephesians 5:22 says women are to submit to their husbands, “as unto the Lord.” That must come first. And what is a great price in the sight of God? A woman who has a meek and quiet spirit (1 Peter 3:4). This is true beauty to God. But Jezebels are the complete opposite. Full of rebellion, pride and hatred! God says throw her down!” Karen Cochran

From the divine perspective, this is not about oppression but rather about protect. See Revelation 2:20-24 to see what Jesus warns when a woman is allowed to lead as an elder in the body of Christ. He uses the words “The depths of Satan” and speaks of the death and destruction that will result when the men allow a woman to lead in a manner that is outside of the stated role God ordained for the woman.

Yes the LORD said He will pour out His Spirit on all flesh, sons and daughter, but not to anoint a woman to do something HE forbids. Women are to teach women yes but not the general body of believers (Titus 2:1-5). There are NO female elders in the New Testament. God forbids it. Eldership is reserved for men – to humbly teach, lead and protect and cherish women and children.

“There’s a crazy role reversal across the land and men should always lead. Even our women’s prayer group was led by the pastor because that’s what he believed. Women are more emotional and men more logical. Both have their designated roles . God meant them to compliment each other rather than to compete.” John Umlauf

When people don’t like what God’s Word states, they will attack the mere messenger as if that changes the truth. Not. And, they heap judgment on themselves by doing so (Matthew 7:1-5; James 2:13). Persecution

“For we are not as many, which corrupt (twist, adulterate) the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.” 2 Corinthians 2:17

“He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.” John 8:47  

“Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.” Proverbs 13:13

Jesus Addresses the Ahabs and Self-Appointed Jezebel at the Church at Thyatira

Revelation 2:20-24

Revelation 2:20-24 is about a certain self-appointed woman who was allowed by the spineless men in Thyatira to operate out of the biblically-stated order for women in the church setting.

Rev 2:20  Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. 
Rev 2:21  And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. 
Rev 2:22  Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. 
Rev 2:23  And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works. 
Rev 2:24  But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.

Gospel Action in Mexico Part 36 [video]

Your prayers and giving are bolstering Christ’s work as we look for His soon return (Luke 12:40; 21:28).

Real people receiving real help, the Gospel, real love from God through the body of Christ (John 13:34-35; Romans 5:5).


Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, please break me! Please crush me dear LORD. YOU are my Potter. Pour the water of Your Holy Spirit and Word upon this life You made and saved for Your glory, not mine. I love You Jesus! Let this heart be broken, contrite, and let tears flow from a poor and pure heart that hungers and thirsts after Your righteousness. In the name of my LORD Jesus, amen.


Would you like to pause and lift Moises up in prayer to our LORD?

After seeing and hearing me preaching our LORD’s Word to others and give the JESUS tracts (in Spanish), this man called me over, asking about the Gospel!

“He nailed it. Community has been lost in America. Just today I was at the store and thought we don’t look each other in the eyes anymore. Then I thought the very next person I see I will make it a point to smile and look them in the eyes. But sadly the next person was on his phone. The connection with each other has been lost. And do people even realize it? No it doesn’t seem like it! Their phones now consume their lives.” Karen Cochran
