Was Charles Stanley true or false? WHERE is Charles Stanley?
“One of the most troubling problems within the church today is the unwavering loyalty to a ‘christian’ personality rather than to Christ and His Word. The unwillingness to test every man’s teaching with God’s Word, coupled with a stubborn lack of discernment, produces fertile ground for deception to flourish.” Evangeline DiChristi
LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT…So this evil heretic, Charles Stanley, spent his whole life on earth lying to people, peddling SATAN’s first DAMNING lie (OSAS), sending many to eternal damnation with his heresies, telling people homosexuality – an “abomination” to God – will not keep them from Heaven, etc., and yet we can’t know where Charles Stanley is? What kind of a truth-despising counterfeit would possibly claim this man went to Heaven? See Leviticus 18:22. Sounds like some folks who believe they are saved are fully deceived in that conclusion. It’s time to repent before it’s too late. You’ve called the Almighty a liar which makes you a hell bound liar (Revelation 21:8). Repent or perish.
THIS WEEK several, including long time “friends” unfriended me due to declaring that every false teacher is going to hell, with no exception – and that’s where Charles Stanley is presumably – due to his decision to be the enemy of Christ by teaching contrary to His Word for decades (2 Peter 2:1-3). No apology. I believe 100% he’s there and there’s good Bible reason for it. There is no Bible reason for any false teacher to go to Heaven. Repent now.
The truth of God alone will destroy the delusions. This blessing only happens in those who will humble themselves before the Almighty and truly, sincerely search out, listen to, believe, and take Him at His Word. KJB (2 Timothy 2:15-3:16-17).
Charles Stanley now knows the damning eternal security/osas lie he perpetrated against the counsel of the Almighty was false. Like Cain, Charles Stanley chose his own way, to do things his own way instead of God’s. He led many into deception and the ditch of eternal destruction. Do you pretend to love God and yet dare show more respect to this vile enemy of Christ than Christ Himself and those millions he deceived?
People have created such soul ties with mere men and therefore when those idols are exposed they erupt into a fury.
“Verily every man at his BEST state is altogether vanity. Selah.” Psalms 39:5
“According to Galatians 1:8-9, Charles Stanley was ‘accursed.’ Sadly, I have a friend grieving over the loss of Charles Stanley and in her rebellion against God, she will not listen to truth. Charles Stanley preached ‘another gospel.'” A Disciple
REPENT when there’s no reason to? After all, Charles Stanley taught and fully believed and was turned over by God Himself to this eternal security lie (2 Thessalonians 2:10-12). SO, what makes us think he would repent in the end when he believed he had no accountability, no personally responsibility to repent because in his own deliberately delusional mind he’s “once saved always saved”? Right?
OSAS / eternal security is a lie from hell embraced by moral cowards who refuse to truly repent, deny themselves, take up the cross daily and follow Jesus for real (Luke 9:23-24).
WHY O WHY would it be difficult to believe that God is going to damn to hell His enemies? Wow. HAVE YOU had an enemy? Specifically, has anyone ever lied about you? Has anyone ever told lies about you? If so, were they in good standing with you? No. Now, think about the nature of the lawless lies Charles Stanley told against God all of his natural life. What if they lied about you for a long time? What if they lied about you for your whole life? Would they be in right standing with you? No. Let’s wake up. God will justly damn the souls of every “false prophet” and “false teacher,” and He has told us just that (2 Peter 2:1-3). If you don’t believe this biblical truth and make concession for sinful evil wolves, this clearly proves you do not love nor fear God and are an idolater of mere men and cursed (Jeremiah 17:5). Laughable. Sinful. Foolish. Damning. Repent now.
“Undoubtedly. Few are even willing to call them (the false teachers) out! A good example is Charles Stanley. He preached the false OSAS doctrine and refused to call out false teachers. Even his own son was not taught to be discerning. Andy teaches many damnable hersesies including preaching that homosexuality is not a sin and they are welcome in his ‘church’, even in leadership positions. Instead Charles befriended many of these false teachers (including Billy Graham)! Sad but he will certainly be held accountable by God. We MUST tell the truth in love! Whether people want to hear it or not. It is a command of Jesus to spread the Good News uncompromisingly to ALL. It is not a pick and choose/ buffet choice matter. We must share the whole saving Gospel of Salvation and Repentance without leaving anything out!” Barbara
Are Christ’s disciples to judge sin in our midst? YES!
“Judge righteous judgment.” John 7:24
“For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within? 13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.” 1 Corinthians 5:12-13
“Open Rebuke” vs “Secret Love”
“Open rebuke is better than secret love. Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.” Proverbs 27:5-6
Recently a man was publicly preaching Satan’s OSAS lie. In an “open rebuke” to him I replied:
“(his name) <<< is a moral coward who hides behind lies because he won’t repent for real, man-up, die to self, live the crucified life, and walk in the light with Christ who is HOLY and returning for His true Church which is “a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish” (Ephesians 5:27; Luke 9:23-24; 1 John 1:7). And (the man’s name) is a diabolical heretic for perpetrating the first lie ever told to man by SATAN which caused the fall of man – irrefutably (Genesis 2:17; 3:4). Time to repent sinner, and cease making excuse for your sins (Proverbs 28:13).”
“That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.” Ephesians 5:27
These defenders of Charles Stanley, a man who profusely promulgated the satanic doctrine of devils of OSAS prove they are on Satan’s side and have made themselves the enemies of Christ.
These OSAS counterfeits have lied against the LORD, they have “belied the LORD”:
“They have belied the LORD, and said, It is not he; neither shall evil come upon us; neither shall we see sword nor famine:” Jeremiah 5:12
“Hebrew for belied ‘kaw-khash’
A primitive root; to be untrue, in word (to lie, feign, disown) or deed (to disappoint, fail, cringe): – deceive, deny, dissemble, fail, deal falsely, be found liars, (be-) lie, lying, submit selves.”
MANY of the OSAS defenders are pitiful pansies (dishonest moral cowards) who refuse to repent, deny self, take up the cross daily, and follow Jesus in the crucified life He mandates for anyone who will truly know and follow Him (Luke 9:23-24). This is why they fiercely defend demonic wolves like Charles Stanley, an enemy of Christ who preached this doctrine of devils.
Demons and their doctrines, “doctrines of devils” are inseparably married – 1 Timothy 4:1-2. If OSAS isn’t a doctrine of devils, there’s no such thing as a doctrine “of devils.” Yet the Bible uses these very words and so we know that ANY person who believe the satanic lie of OSAS has demons. It doesn’t matter if they believe this or not – they have demons.
“Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;” 1 Timothy 4:1-2
Did you notice that departing from the faith is specifically included as a doctrine of devils here in this passage above?
God uses heresies to divide between the authentic and the fake (mere professors).
“For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.” 1 Corinthians 11:19
Jesus came and gave us His truth in order to clearly separate… a sword separates – divides.
“Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.” Matthew 10:34
The truth is the occasion of division – between those who are truly of God and those who aren’t. See John 8:47.
Homosexuals in Heaven? No! Leviticus 18:22… and some people claiming to be following Jesus are viciously attacking me for stating the Biblically obvious. | God says homosexuality is an “abomination” to Him (Leviticus 18:22). | Charles Stanley said homosexuals will be in Heaven.
IF Biblical truth destroys your delusions, why not just get happy and thank God? Didn’t He inform us that He gave us His Word to do just that – for “correction” or correcting us? Boom (2 Timothy 3:16-17).
My personal conviction is to preach the Bible with no human reasoning. I fear for the eternal soul of anyone teaching that doctrine of devils.
Charles Stanley is dead and in hell. He now knows the damning eternal security/osas lie he perpetrated against the counsel of the Almighty was false. He made a lot of money doing it.
Like Cain, Stanley chose his own way, to do things his own way instead of God’s. He led many into deception and the ditch of eternal destruction.
THE ONLY REASON A PERSON WOULD BELIEVE THAT CHARLES STANLEY IS WITH GOD IN HEAVEN IS THAT SUCH A PERSON LOVES HIMSELF AND A MERE MAN, A SINNER (CHARLES STANLEY) MORE THAN JESUS…..
LAUGHABLE IF IT WEREN’T SO PITIFUL: Contrast the fact that the Berean disciples tested the LORD’s apostle Paul against the Word of God and now we have biblically-illiterate dupes who are defending a known, blatant demonic operative named Charles Stanley. They refuse to honestly test this wolf against Holy Scripture.
“And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.” Acts 17:10-11
“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
The wicked among us are digging their way into hell… “they dig into hell” (Amos 9:2).
“I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.” Luke 13:3
Tares prove their own counterfeit status when they love and defend the lies the false prophets peddle. They “love to have it so.”
“The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means ($); and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?” Jeremiah 5:31
Many have created a soul tie with the famous personalities of “ministries” in apostate America. They love the lies these people feed them because they themselves have not repented, are not truly serving Christ in the daily cross – which He said is essential or one is not following Him (Luke 9:23-24). So, they will fight viciously to defend the mere man or woman they’ve idolized and have become accustomed to receiving lies from them. They will listen to endless episodes from the wolves that are misleading them and yet do little or nothing to seek the LORD in His own Word. They love to try to protect their delusion they hide behind (Jeremiah 5:31).
“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
The truth of God destroys the delusions of those who will humble themselves before the Almighty and truly, sincerely search out, listen to, and believe Him at His Word (2 Timothy 2:15-3:16-17 KJB).
Tell HIS truth NO MATTER WHAT saints! (John 17:17; Romans 3:4)
Lynne Parker states:
“What a horrible conclusion and frightening realization regarding Charles Stanley, yet God’s Word states emphatically the end of such false teaching. It should raise a godly fear in us all.”
ANY and all who teach OSAS are liars, false teachers, and headed for hell – with no exception (2 Peter 2:1-3). Repent of the compromise.
Charles Stanley and anyone teaching OSAS is a false teacher and false prophet….OSAS was SATAN’s first teaching, first lie, which led to the fall of mankind and is still damning millions (Genesis 2:17; 3:4). “Heresies” is one of the 17 soul damning sins on the list cited in Galatians 5:19-21. So anyone preaching a lie is going to fry, period. Such a person, such as Charles Stanley, is by biblical definition, a “false teacher.”
OSAS is the first lie ever told and it was told by Satan himself and directly led to the fall of mankind (Genesis 2:17; 3:4). This cannot be refuted. And so anyone teaching or defending in any way this lie is in need of repentance. Their defense of this lie of Satan reveals they are false teachers and on his side, not Christ’s.
Be encouraged to lock this passage in…. whatever you do. We are going to be dealing with biblically-illiterate counterfeits till Jesus returns and you will need this ammo as you “earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.” See Jude 3-4.
The JUDGE has spoken! CAN YOU READ?
AFTER reading 2 Peter 2:1-3 there should be absolutely NO doubt that every “false teacher” and “false prophet” will be going to “damnation.” Boom. Case closed. GOD the JUDGE has spoken. Anyone who questions Him proves to be a child of Satan himself (Genesis 3:1).
God told us specifically that EVERY “false teacher” and “false prophet” will have “DAMNATION” (2 Peter 2:1-3). They are going to hell for lying against the LORD, His Word.
Jude specifically mandates that God’s people earnestly contend against the “ungodly men” who peddle this grace-perverting lie – OSAS (Jude 3-4).
CHARLES STANLEY was a lying devil and in my opinion he is 100% in hell. The Bible makes that crystal clear. You going to call the LORD a liar?
Make Hell Known Again!
Make God’s Word Great Again – in the minds of rebels – “Let God be true and EVERY man a liar” (Romans 3:4). Unbelief is a soul damning sin (Hebrews 3:12-15).
Hell awaits all who die in sin. You’ve been warned.
Repent and follow Jesus daily by the cross life – or get ready to burn.
People prove who they are by how they treat (embrace or reject) the knowledge of God He gave us in His Word.
“He that is OF GOD heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are NOT OF GOD.” John 8:47
When I made this post, and do not apologize for it… it seems more than obvious that this vile enemy of Christ taught his filth all the way to his death AND the very nature of such a lie would not necessitate, would not lead him to truly repent before he drew his last breath.
“(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: 19 whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)” Philippians 3:18-19
SO, let me get this straight, a man can teach heresies, spit in the face of God for his whole natural life and YET because he called himself a pastor and got millions of people to like and listen to his lies, then he’s going to the Heaven of the holy God whom he deliberately lied about during his earthly whole life? Man you need to get saved if you believe that, sinner! Repent now you vile enemy of the LORD!
Yes, and anyone who reads God’s Word knows that God is “Holy, holy, holy,” and that anyone who dies in sin is going to hell irrevocably. The wages of sin is STILL death (Romans 6:23).
MANY are fighting to defend Satan’s wolves while claiming to be following Jesus! Wow (2 Corinthians 11:12-15).
God has turned them over to “strong delusion” (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12).
The religious industry is big busine$$! (Read 2 Peter 2:1-3; Romans 16:17-18.)
It’s all a big game and you are the prey, the target, the intended victim. Get into God’s Word for yourself and only then will He give you a clue – His truth (Hosea 4:6).
“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
Charles Stanley had a huge “call center.” Surely you’re not going to say it was for prayer. No, any ministry that has a large call center is doing so to collect money. Big call center equals big money. Stop the disingenuous dishonesty now!
Defending Satan’s false teachers clearly proves you are on Satan’s side, not Christ’s! Repent now vile antichrist (Matthew 12:30; 2 Corinthians 11:12-15).
“People would rather be comfortable in a lie which is what they tell.” Dana Carter
Yes, they are defending their own rebellion
“For I am the LORD, I change not…” Malachi 3:6
I’m sorry, can someone please explain to us all WHEN God ceases to be “Holy, holy, holy” and when the wages of sin cease to be death? Waiting (Romans 6:23; Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8; Hebrews 12:14).
Unless the Almighty changed, all rebels, every false teacher is immediately in hell upon dying. Period. It’s time to repent and take God at His Word OR cease claiming we know Him whom we are calling a liar if we don’t believe what He plainly stated.
“Let GOD be true and EVERY man a liar.” Romans 3:4
Charles Stanley is not in Heaven. Get a biblical clue! You only want to believe that because you care more about that vile sinner than the LORD you falsely claim to serve!
Those who are not engrossed daily in the Word of God are backslidden and walking in darkness. They are under the power and deception of “Satan” himself because they don’t truly love the LORD, and that’s why they don’t esteem His Word as final divine authority. God told on these rebels in advance so they’d have the opportunity to repent for real and get right with Him before it’s too late. Check this out.
“Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12
The reason people get so upset about the conclusion that Charles Stanley is in hell is because they themselves are in darkness and don’t want to truly repent, and so they want to believe they are safe and secure. Hell awaits.
“And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.” John 3:19-21
If you knew Jesus, you’d know what He stated in His Word. Yet you don’t because you love darkness rather than light, you love your life in this fleeting world and are on the broad way that leads to destruction (Matthew 7:13-14). IF you are man enough, keep reading.
IF the heart of man is the source of righteousness and unrighteousness (and it is), if you can’t know another man’s heart, to some degree, their spiritual state, WHY O WHY did Jesus command us to “know” (discern) people “by their fruits”? WHY would our LORD instruct us to discern others and “know” them by “fruits” of their life if that’s not what He wanted us to do? And if we are obeying Him by discerning people “by their fruits” are we not going to find some of those people to have bad fruit…..And just WHAT does that bad fruit say of the heart of the person it’s coming out of? Hmmmmm.
When Jesus says “Judge righteous judgment” He’s not speaking of condemning anyone, He’s speaking of discerning them (John 7:24). It’s His place alone to judge those who refuse His salvation plan, not ours (James 1:20). Yet, He, the Judge Himself, commands us to discern, to examine, to “know” others “by their fruits.”
Let’s put a fresh eye on this severe warning of Jesus concerning being a false prophet and discerning false leaders:
“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16 YE SHALL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 20 Wherefore BY THEIR FRUITS YE SHALL KNOW (discern) them. 21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.” Matthew 7:16-21
TO CLAIM WE CAN’T KNOW WHERE SOMEONE IS WHEN THEY DIE IS TO FALSELY CLAIM…
1. That God didn’t thoroughly address this issue (2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:3-4).
2. To claim you don’t really know and/or believe God’s Word which means you have called the Almighty a liar and are living in damnable unbelief (Numbers 23:17; Malachi 3:6; Mark 13:31, etc.).
3. To claim that we can’t know these things the LORD has spoken of.
4. Claim to not truly believe what God says which makes you a lost soul.
Gutless moral cowards don’t know God’s Word because they’ve been playing and not truly fearing, obeying, and walking with Christ (John 3:19-21). Counterfeits. This is why they rise up against His truth.
They will be destroyed for lack of knowledge because they’ve rejected His knowledge – His Word. They’ve been too busy chasing the fleeting trinkets of this fallen temporal world.
“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because THOU HAST REJECTED KNOWLEDGE, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.” Hosea 4:6
So, God told us things in His Word and yet you call Him a liar?
“God is not a man, that he should lie.” Numbers 23:19
SO many among us are living in the flesh out of a carnal, wicked and uncircumcised heart (Jeremiah 4:3-4; 17:5-10; Hosea 10:12; Ephesians 5:25-27; Hebrews 3:12-15; 4:12; 5:11-14, etc.). The circumcising of the heart only transpires in the lives of those who truly love God and therefore diligently study the two edge sword of His Word which circumcises their hearts.
“For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12
ANY person who doesn’t walk according to God’s written Word “shall be destroyed.” Not only are many who claim to know Christ not agreeing with His Word, they are attacking it, and His messengers who merely put HIS Word forth.
“Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.” Proverbs 13:13
One lady gave the typical cop out of negating the whole counsel of Scripture with the “God knows the heart” excuse. Such are misusing God’s Word and calling God a liar as they ignore what His Word states (2 Corinthians 2:17). Jesus plainly taught that the fruit of a man’s life CLEARLY proves what’s in his heart (Matthew 7:16, 20; 12:34). Regrettably they don’t know this simple truth because they are not disciples, not a man or woman of truth – they are not “valiant for the truth” of God (Jeremiah 9:3). It’s time to get into God’s Word and cease bearing false witness against the LORD.
Where do actions, where does fruit flow from? – the hearts of men. See Mark 7:20-23…. What did Jesus tell us in Matthew 7:16, 20 and 12:34? How do we know who someone is? – “by their fruits” (Matthew 7:16, 20). Jesus commands us to “know” ourselves and others by our/their “fruits.” Did Jesus call His people to be fruit inspectors? Yes! Also, do you know about the gift of the Spirit called “the discerning of spirits”? See 1 Corinthians 12:10. Why did the LORD instruct us to keep, to guard our hearts? – because the issues of life flow from our hearts (Proverbs 4:23). As goes the heart, so goes the life, the fruit of our lives. And, do we not know that people who know us are witnessing what is flowing from, what fruit is issuing from our lives, our hearts?
The LORD is calling those who claim to be His and don’t know His Word thoroughly, to repent. GOD has spoken and many who pretend to be His are contradicting what He stated. Ever heard of His Word, the Bible? Have you studied it (King James Bible) honestly, thoroughly, organically? YOU are calling him a liar. Apparently, you have no clue what Scripture teaches, and the Word instructs you to keep quiet until all you have to say is HIS Word (Prov. 18:13; 2 Tim. 2:15).
Unless God’s Word is a lie, irrefutably, Stanley is burning in hell…
GOD says that every “false prophet” and every “false teacher” is going to hell – shall have “damnation.” You going to call the LORD a liar?
Of every “false prophet” and “false teacher among you” (posing as Christian leaders), the LORD says “their damnation slumbereth not.” Boom.
False Prophets and Teachers
“But there were FALSE PROPHETS also among the people, even as there shall be FALSE TEACHERS among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift DESTRUCTION. 2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. 3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose JUDGMENT now of a long time lingereth not, and THEIR DAMNATION SLUMBERETH NOT.” 2 Peter 2:1-3
“Slumbereth not” simply means it’s of a certainty coming – that their “damnation” in hell is absolute, sure, guaranteed by God!
All “FALSE PROPHETS … among the people” and “FALSE TEACHERS” will “bring upon themselves swift DESTRUCTION” … “JUDGMENT” and “DAMNATION.” (2 Peter 2:1-3)
Bible Question: WHERE do all “false teachers” and “false prophets” go when they die? 2 Peter 2:1-3
Key words in this passage are highlighted in order to help the astute Bible student grasp the divine conveyance.
IF you don’t study, know, understand, and take God at His Word, it’s because you are full of the love of self, and have “an evil heart of unbelief” and are going to be damned if you don’t repent.
“Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. 13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; 15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.” Hebrews 3:12-15
Charles Stanley taught the OSAS doctrine of devils all his life and even said that “homo-sexuals” who’d had one profession of faith in the past would be in Heaven. The man was a child of Satan. Get over it.
GREAT to hear from men who truly believe what God says. ALL others are hell bound and we are seeing many rebels who hide in their darkness, manifested in this post alone.
Bro Fred Fory, Jr. writes:
“1 Cor. 9:27 – Paul said unless he was able to keep his body under subjection he would be a castaway. Will there be castaways in heaven? Paul Again – Rom. 11:21-22 – ‘If God spared not the natural branches (Israel), take heed lest He spare not thee, (Church). 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 (saved) also shall be cut off.’ Paul continues in Heb. 10:26-29 – that if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins — only judgment and fiery indignation.’ Paul said ‘we,’ including himself and the church.”
Chad Johnson notes:
“Sadly, it’s true.
Revelation 22:18-19 (KJV) ’18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: 19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and [from] the things which are written in this book.’
Charles Stanley did this by teaching OSAS.”

Satan Hates Soul Winners With A Passion
Are You On His Hit List?
“He that winneth souls is wise.” Proverbs 11:30
Do you desire to win souls? Are you willing to try a new, yet time-tested method to reach others for Christ while there is still time? This method that I am going to share with you is approximately 500 years old and could revolutionize your life today here on earth, and throughout eternity. It started when the LORD had the printing press come into existence so that His Word could be propagated to all the peoples of the earth.
As a roman catholic monk with an unredeemed, darkened heart, Martin Luther read the book of Romans and had just discovered that a man is saved by God’s grace through faith, not by works or adherence to a religion (Ephesians 2:8-9). He accepted God’s gift of eternal life and was saved. So, this reformer nailed the 99 declarations to the roman church door and was thereby persecuted by the catholic system from that day forward. A few years following this event, and by divine providence, the printing press was invented. Luther began publishing literature (tracts) about salvation by grace through faith and was able to reach tens of thousands across Europe with the Gospel. Riding upon the vehicle of the printed page, the Gospel of Jesus spread like wild fire across the Europe.
Gospel Tracts have been used by Christians for some 500 years now to reach millions of precious souls who might never have been otherwise reached. The Gospel of Jesus Christ in short form on a tract can convict the alienated soul of sin and plant the necessary seed of salvation.
“I HAVE PLANTED, APOLLOS WATERED; BUT GOD GAVE THE INCREASE…NOW HE THAT PLANTETH AND HE THAT WATERETH ARE ONE: AND EVERY MAN SHALL RECEIVE HIS OWN REWARD ACCORDING TO HIS OWN LABOUR. FOR WE ARE LABOURERS TOGETHER WITH GOD.” 1 Corinthians 3:6-9
Did you notice that the apostle Paul said; ” I HAVE PLANTED, APOLLOS WATERED; BUT GOD GAVE THE INCREASE…”? How can God give “the increase” if His servants don’t plant and water the seed of His perfect Word? Isn’t it amazing how that our Heavenly Father has granted us the privilege of participating in His plan of redemption and even promises rewards in Heaven to the faithful?! (John 4:35; Daniel 12:3)
A tract as defined by Daniel Webster means “a pamphlet or leaflet, especially one on a religious subject.” A Gospel tract is a vehicle upon which God’s holy Word is recorded. The tract is then placed where the lost can pick it up, read it, and have the Gospel of Christ enlighten their hearts. This is a proven method of communicating the death, burial, and resurrection of the Son of God to sinners.
“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” Psalms 119:105
Has the Holy Ghost been prompting you to reach the lost in this last hour? If so, it is important for you to realize that literature evangelism is a method that He also originated and is integrally involved in today.
Remember, there will be no sinners to reach in Heaven and we only have a short time to reach them here on earth, because our LORD is coming soon. The close of this age is at hand, “…the night cometh when no man can work.” John 9:4 If we are going to do something for Christ, we must do it now.
Someone has wisely stated that “The only thing better than going to Heaven is taking others with you.” I dare to say, according to Scripture, that ALL true Christians have a desire to share Christ with others. It would not be impossible for His love to fill one’s heart and he not desire to tell others.
I am writing to you today, as your friend and brother in Christ, to tell you that you can do something significant to reach the lost for Jesus! You can use this practical method to reach others for Christ. Distributing Gospel literature is a very effective method of evangelism. I am no different than you and have been putting out Gospel literature for over 15 years now. On a daily basis I have developed the simple habit of carrying tracts wherever I go. I always have 3-10 tracts on my person with at least 50-150 in my car. This habit has become so natural that I feel lost without Gospel literature in my possession – only because I have developed the habit of evangelizing this way. Under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, the apostle Paul instructed Timothy to; “Do the work of an evangelist.” 2 Timothy 4:5 Note the phrase “the work of an evangelist.” “The work of an evangelist” is to win the lost.
I KEPT RUNNING OUT AND THAT GOT ME MAD!
One of the reasons I started a tract ministry in 1987 is because I got tired of running out of tracts to pass out. I got very frustrated and wanted to put an end to lack, once and for all time! I never wanted to be without Gospel literature again! It seemed like every extra dollar I could squeeze out, I’d mail to a tract ministry to order 100-200 tracts. That’s all I could afford at the time. Obviously, I didn’t have an abundance of money in those days, but the LORD used what I had to His glory and He multiplied it, as He promised in the parable of the talents and as He did with the loaves and fishes (Matt. 25; 2 Cor. 9:10).
TRACT MANIAC
Within days of receiving tracts in the mail from other tract ministries, I was completely out and wanting more in order to reach more people. Finally, after praying about this, I believe it was impressed upon my heart to write an evangelistic message, so I did. It became the very first tract we ever published and was titled “The Absolute.” Then, I felt impressed to get a printing press. At that time I didn’t even know what a printing press looked like. Well, to make a long story short, we were blessed with one and started learning how to use it without the slightest lesson or experience. The first night, myself and a friend ruined 1-2 reams of paper trying to learn. We learned as we went. This was the start of a ministry that would lead to numerous salvations by producing some million and a half tracts over the next few years, and it all started by simple obedience to God’s Word.
“Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables (the printed page), that he may run that readeth it.” Habakkuk 2:2
THE 1080 PLAN
What do you think might happen if you simply placed 3 tracts per day where someone could pick them up? That’s 90 per month and 1080 per year! Just think, if only 50% of those tracts got read (that’s a conservative figure) what could happen. Only Heaven will reveal! That’s 540 souls who would have the eternal Word of God planted in their hearts as a result of your ministry. Isn’t this exciting!?
Just maybe you have experienced the thoughts that went something like this; “Okay, I want to be used by God to reach the lost, but how do I get started? What practical thing can I personally do to let fellow men know about the love of God?” If this has been the question of your heart, just maybe you could obtain some Gospel tracts and begin a tract outreach ministry to the world around you? No one else can reach your world but you. This is your calling from God. What do you think? Only eternity will reveal how many people miss eternal hell and go to Heaven as a result of your service to our LORD. Remember the song, “Thank you, for giving to the LORD, I am a life that was changed…”? Will there be people in Heaven who thank you for reaching them before it was too late?
HERE’S HOW YOU CAN REACH OUT WITH TRACTS:
Reflecting upon today, I remember that I was privileged to distribute several Gospel tracts in my travels. I didn’t even need to go out of my way – I was already going to be in those places. I thought, “Why not make the best impact for Christ while walking to and through a building?” In the morning, while searching for a greeting card, I placed some tracts (2-3) inside some greeting cards at the grocery store, and on the way out dropped one in each of two soft drink machines so that the next person who got a soft drink, got a tract too. This took little extra effort, I was already enroute, yet could have eternal consequences. At a restaurant tonight, I used the restroom and placed 3-4 in there so that the next few unsuspecting patronizers would have the Gospel readily available to them. Don’t forget, there is normally a water fountain and/or telephones near bathrooms where tracts can be placed. Don’t forget to place one of two in different places of the phone book. Today, at the gas pump I placed a tract on the pump so that the next person could get it. There are limitless ways to get tracts out so that sinners can be reached. Your imagination is the limit. What an adventure!
THERE ARE MANY PLACES GOSPEL TRACTS CAN BE PLACED. HERE ARE A FEW:
Hands (remember to smile with God’s love), convenience stores, newspaper stands, coke machines, Laundromats, beauty shops, telephone booths, airports, airplanes, park benches, magazines/magazine racks, restaurants, doctor’s offices, grocery store shelves, bus stations, dentist’s offices, public restrooms, libraries hospitals, shopping malls, at social events, etc….and the list goes on. The idea is to infiltrate, inundate, and saturate your community with the Gospel.
INVADE YOUR CITY WITH THE WORD ON THE PRINTED PAGE: Launch a major tract attack in your world. Begin today. Jesus said: “The seed is the word of God”. It’s our time to PLANT IT! (Luke 8:11) God will bless your efforts. If you need tracts, contact us.
This ministry exists to spread the Gospel. We would love to assist you in starting your own witnessing ministry for the Lord. All you need to get started is a willing and obedient heart, and some good Gospel literature.

P.S. – It makes it all worth while when you get a personal phone call at 3 AM in the morning from a guy who has just read a tract you distributed and is wanting to pray to get saved! This actually happened! But, whether you see the fruit or not, you must understand that God’s Word does not return void, but accomplishes what God ordains in the hearts of those who read the literature you place out in your world. See Isaiah 55:10-11; Rom. 1:16
NEVER doubt the power of God’s Word.
Have you ever desired for your friends and family to be present at a gathering of Saints where there was in anointed call to receive Jesus and they were drawn up to be saved? I have. That’s a great desire and yet in the days of those special gatherings of true, Jesus-seeking disciples are becoming more and more limited. Therefore we must be that altar call, that anointed vessel of God who goes to the people and brings them in. God will make it happen in His resurrection life as we consent to daily dying (2 Corinthians 4:10-12).

Off The Chain! Mood Drugs Exposed [podcast]
“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” John 16:33
In his prayer of repentance, the sweet psalmist of Israel, the beloved David, cried “Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit” (Psalms 51:12).
“I took these drugs for 20+ years and they are dangerous, highly addictive and can do lasting damage. They cure nothing and in many cases cause more long term problems. Depression is absolutely demonic in my experience. GOD is the only answer. Thank you for speaking the truth on this. I’ve found SO many are deceived and blinded by the world system and claim there’s nothing wrong with psych drugs and that God gave man the wisdom to create these. Total nonsense. Anti anxiety meds slow brain activity and are definitely linked to dementia.” Jen G
“I am really enjoying your podcasts and I really hate pills (drugs) as they create more health problems. I am learning every day how I have been deceived. It’s really quite shocking. Its the side effects to these awful medicine that concern me. That is why there so many people with Alzheimer’s and dementia might be the cause and then e additives and chemicals that the farmers spray. Devils cocktail seem like. I am going organic. I am so glad that I am getting washed by the Word. Amen.” Penny
Carol Burke writes:
“Romans 8:15 says ‘For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.’ Fear is a spirit that torments man to terrorize him internally, to not permit the fruit of the Holy Spirit to manifest internally to set men free. Thank You Lord! We need not fear as one that is in bondage to his master! I am no longer a slave but a son! Drugs is bondage!”
Mood Drug Madness is the Prophesied Antichrist Sorcery, Witchcraft Wielded Over all Who aren’t Truly In Christ (Revelation 18:23).
“…for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.” Revelation 18:23
Getting Honest is the First Step Toward Total Victory
“The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” Jeremiah 17:9
Jesus taught us that man’s sin comes out of his “desperately wicked” heart (Jer. 17:9; Mark 7:20-23).
The devil and his agents have created a million ways to divert us from stopping our lives, getting honest, taking personal responsibility, humbling ourselves, admitting our sins against God, and repenting.
“When David took his sin to God in Psalm 51 he took 100 percent responsibility! He did not blame Bathsheba and did not seek therapy or medications. He took his heart to God. Repented and pleaded with the Lord to forgive and cleanse him. And the Lord restored to him the joy of his salvation. David was truly broken before God. And the only answer he sought was the Lord.” Karen Cochran
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“There are legitimate diseases and drugs. This is rather broad. You break your leg you go to the doctor don’t you? Same for mental, mood problems, right? I wouldn’t argue against scripture… but I also couldn’t believe you are the judge of every person who is medically assisted. Not every illness is miraculously healed. We live in a fallen world.”
REPLY:
You are using human reasoning so I will not answer this question. Drugging demons and depression is a cheap counterfeit and a mere band aid. It has never nor ever will result in curing the root. Jesus alone can make the heart right, not doctors. Where did Jesus or any of His apostles prescribe a drug, especially for someone’s mental state? Memorize Colossians 2:8-10.
We are complete in Christ who is our Salvation and He did a perfect work and lives to provide what He died to purchase (1 Thessalonians 5:23; Hebrews 4:14-16; 7:24-26). | Christ Lives to Provide What He Died to Purchase
Drugs dull and numb the mind and put a person in an altered state, not to mention that they are also proven to damage the internal organ. This numbing of the mind is of diabolical design in order to lead rebels into eternal damnation.
What does 2 Timothy 1:7 say? Devils have legal right to the minds of every person who has not truly repented and is not currently abiding in Christ. Sin gives an open door, legal right to Satan. Memorize James 4:7. Notice when the demon possessed maniac at Gadara had those demons cast out by Jesus…. what happened? What was his mental state, his mood?
‘And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and IN HIS RIGHT MIND: and they were afraid.’ Mark 5:15
Jesus didn’t prescribe a drug and we are to do what He did and not to do what He didn’t do. In fact He specifically commanded us to do such:
‘And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;’ Mark 16:17
Are those who take mood drugs, drugging demons?
This message in no way declares that every human malady is healed miraculously. This post does absolutely challenge with the Bible the idea of drugging our minds to effect our mood, our spiritual or psychological state. I am judging you as being biblical illiterate (John 7:24; 8:47) and certainly put no trust in your mere human reasoning or mind. Show us all one place in the Bible where Jesus, His apostles, or prophets ever prescribed a drug for a person’s mental, spiritual, psychological state? Waiting…. you gave no Scripture so apparently your trust is in something else other than God’s Word. You would do well to get into the Word.
Are you blessed or cursed?
‘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
Luke was a physician. God provides them. Yet the LORD is a Jealous God who is the only Soul-ution for our spirit, soul, and body (2 Chronicles 16:12). Drugging ourselves for our mental, spiritual, psychological state is something the LORD supplies through the fruit of the Spirit – love, joy, peace, etc. (Galatians 5:22-23).
The battle that rages is a spiritual battle. We shall suffer such attacks in the flesh as long as we are on earth and so submitting ourselves afresh in prayer to the LORD as you did is essential in the victory. Memorizing James 4:7 is amazing!!!
To say one needs a drug for his mood is to say Jesus didn’t do a complete work (2 Timothy 1:7). WHAT are the 9 dimensions of the ‘fruit of the Spirit’ which are born and alive in every truly abiding saint of Christ? (See Galatians 5:22-23.) There is no such thing as a disciple of Jesus, blessed with the fruit of the Holy Spirit – love, joy, peace – that takes a drug for their mood. They don’t need such a cheap demonic counterfeit.
Psalm 51 – after we seek the LORD in true repentance, He cleanses us, and restores unto us ‘the joy of thy salvation’ which is a whole, complete salvation – spirit, soul, mind, body (1 Thessalonians 5:23).
So if a Christian is taking a mood drug, are they trusting Christ or the drug?
‘And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to the LORD, but to the physicians.’ 2 Chronicles 16:12
So, will we trust the Great Physician or the worlds physicians?
The sin of unbelief (Hebrews 3-4).
‘How oft did they provoke him in the wilderness, and grieve him in the desert! 41 Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and LIMITED THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL. 42 They remembered not his hand, nor the day when he delivered them from the enemy.’ Psalms 78:40-42
There are so very many people who claim to be Christ’s yet they don’t listen to Christ – His written Word. No, they have no time to revel in ‘ALL things that pertain to life and godliness’ found in the ‘exceeding great and precious promises’ of the Word of God (2 Peter 1:3-4). Yet, these same people do spend endless energy and time listening to and obeying this fallen world’s mere human ‘experts.’ Sad. Telling. Bad fruit. Spiritual adultery. Hell awaits.
‘Thou shalt have no other gods before me.’ Exodus 20:3
Limiting God is a sin. Unbelief. ‘Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and LIMITED THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL’ (Psalms 78:41).
Are we forgetting the benefits the LORD provided in His perfect salvation?
‘Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:’ Psalms 103:2
We live in a drug-crazed, drug-dependent world. Isn’t using a drug for our mental, psychological, and spiritual state not an indictment upon our glorious LORD God who gave His only begotten Son for our redemption, our wholeness, our salvation? When He saves us we are born again and the divine Holy Spirit dwells in us, His temples (1 Corinthians 3:16). We are new creatures in Christ and yet by gullibly allowing a mere man to prescribe a drug, we forfeit the blessing of God (2 Corinthians 5:17-18). Repentance needed for ‘an evil heart of unbelief’ (Hebrews 3:12-15). God doesn’t band aid things, He heals and makes whole to the root. Dare we accuse the Almighty of shorting us, of the sacrifice of His Son not being enough, not providing a complete salvation?
“Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.” Jeremiah 17:14
A mood drug is a band aid for the unrepentant – not the divine solution.
Got depression? Are you seeking the LORD in true repentance whereby He will grant you great joy? (Psalms 51; 2 Timothy 1:7)
Sin is the Root of all of Man’s Problems: Drugs are Never the Solution
Depression is merely the result of sin, of living in sin. Period. No stupid medicine has or ever will solve such. Only Jesus can and did solve man’s sin dilemma. Surrendering in repentant to the Savior is sin’s solution and all the evil it brings such as depression (Romans 6:23).
“Die to self! My depression left once I fully surrendered to the Lord my wicked self! Depression is all the result of you trying to do it in your own strength! And being stuck in self! Humbly surrender to God and He will lift you up out of the horrible pit (which is what depression is), the miry clay (despair) and set your feet upon the rock of Jesus! Then He will put a new song in your heart! A song of praise and thanksgiving to the Lord! (Psalm 40:2-3). The joy of the Lord will be your strength! (Nehemiah 8:10). Alleluia!” Karen Cochran
David had sinned grossly. He cried out to the LORD in sincere repentance. What happened that restored ‘the JOY of thy salvation’ to this man after God’s own heart? Can anyone find a mood drug in this divine prescription or anywhere in God’s Word?
‘Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. 9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities. 10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. 11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. 12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.’ Psalms 51:8-12
Upon authentic repentance, David was restored to the joy of the LORD and upheld, uplifted by the Holy Spirit of God.
Those who refuse to truly repent and lay down their lives in this fleeting world are subjected and relegated to dependence on the world’s cheap substitutes which never get to the root of the issue but rather only mask it with a band aid. Until they see this for the sin it is, the sin of unbelief – out of ‘an evil heart of unbelief’ -they shall remain unstable, unsound, and in bondage to a drug (Hebrews 3:12-15).
THOSE WHO FOLLOW JESUS DON’T NEED AN ANTIDEPRESSANT BECAUSE THEY ARE FULL OF THE JOY OF THE LORD.
‘For the joy of the LORD is your strength.’ Nehemiah 8:10
The true born again disciple of Jesus, abiding daily in Him, is full of His divine ‘Love, JOY, peace…’ (Galatians 5:22-23) Such an authentic follower of Jesus doesn’t walk in ‘the counsel of the ungodly’ but rather in the counsel, the Word of God ‘and in his law doth he meditate day and night’ (Psalms 1). The joy of the LORD is our strength and abides and remains in His abiding disciples – so they have need of nothing, no counterfeit, no cheap substitute for what God provides!
‘These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.’ John 15:11
Never Underestimate the Power of Jesus!
As you read this fascinating story of maniacal demon possession, to solve this problem, ask what solution Jesus provided. Did the Son of God prescribe a drug, send someone to the doctor, or cast out the devils?
“And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes. And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him. And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones. But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not. For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit. And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many. And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country. Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding. And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them. And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea. And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done. And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid. And they that saw it told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine. And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts. And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him. Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee. And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel.” Mark 5:1-20
Here was a demon possessed maniac who was so overcome by the devil that he terrorized the whole town of Gadara, cried aloud, stripped himself, cut himself, and broke the chains that held him bound – until Jesus broke his chain! He was then off the chain – completely set free and “sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind” (Mk. 5:15).
The power of God changed this man’s life as it is changing lives today around the world. Jesus set this bound soul free from all those devils that had taken residence inside him and gave this man a sound mind! God be praised! God will take off the chain that binds every soul that hears and obeys His Gospel.
This once demon possessed maniacal man was now restored by Heaven’s King who came “to seek and to save that which was lost.” (Luke 19:10).
“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
WHEN we see humanity being stolen from, robbed, killed, destroyed, through sin and Satan, we must see through the eyes of Jesus, His Word.
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:12
EVERY person we deal with, is a precious soul Jesus created and died for. Their outer shell might be very ugly, destroyed, nasty…. yet they are an eternal soul Jesus died and was raised again to save.
Father, please help us see Your truth, reality via Your kingdom eyes. Open our eyes that we might see as You see. In Jesus’ name LORD.
How did our LORD deal with the maniac at Gadara? He did not condemn, He cured!
Jesus came to save, to set men free from sin and Satan! We are His hands and feet in the earth!
God is Greater than all Falsehood
“Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God. For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar…” Romans 3:3-4
While in a retail location (car dealership) I was quickened by the Spirit to minister to a certain man in his 20’s. As I moved toward him, I saw what looked like an open Bible on his work station desk so I asked about it and he said “No, this is a Quran.” I said “Oh okay” and never slowed down or broke stride (by God’s grace) to worry about what diversionary tactic the enemy was using against this precious soul. So, immediately, with a hand of compassion on his shoulder, looked him in the eye and began to lovingly tell Him how much Jesus loved Him and died for his sins and that Christ was the only Person in history who foretold His own death, burial, and resurrection, and then accomplished it all, rising from the dead after dying on that cross on Calvary’s hill. I told him how that He is alive right now and forevermore to save to the uttermost! I shared with this man that only Jesus Christ bares nailed-scarred hands and feet to prove He is the very Son of God and paid the only price that propitiates (atones) for our sins, satisfying the claims of the Father’s justice. By this point this man’s eyes were filled with tears. The Holy Spirit was touching his searching heart which can never be filled or satisfied by anything but Christ, the Prince of peace, whose love and truth is communicated in and through His Word.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.” John 3:16-17
The tears in this man’s eyes, emanating from his broken soul, can be a reminder to our understanding that God made all souls and that He can and will find and touch anyone He chooses through His Word, Spirit, and servants! (See Ezek. 18:4.) Never believe a lie or system of lies to be greater than the power of your God! The Jehovah Witness, Mormon, Islamic, Catholic religions are merely man-made religions and unlike the Gospel, have no power to redeem! The divine Person of the Holy Ghost is only behind and confirming the true Gospel with signs following, the greatest sign being the new birth in the hearts of men! (See Mk. 16:15-20; Jn. 3:3, 7; Tit. 3:5-6.) Only the Person and Gospel of Jesus Christ transforms lives completely – from the inside out! Only God can grant the new birth!
Could there possibly be any message in the world greater or more powerful than the one given by the One who made all things?
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” Romans 1:16
“Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?” Jeremiah 23:29
Only God can truly change a life from the inside out! Only Jesus can turn a heart of stone into a heart of flesh! (See Ezek. 36:25-27.) The Gospel is superior to any other system of religion. Nothing compares to the glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ that has saved and sanctified millions of precious souls the world over and is still marching on across the nations, one heart at a time. Fear not – “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world” (1 Jn. 4:4). Saints, let us simply and obediently communicate God’s truth in love and watch Jesus work to save! – “I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase” (1 Cor. 3:6). He has promised to bless as you obey!
Jesus Never Fails!
Didn’t Jesus reach into your own hardened and wretched soul, interrupting your life of sin and save you?! If so, is He not able to do the same in others? Didn’t He tell us that His infinitely mighty arm is not shorted or hindered and that His ear is not closed and that He is able to save to the uttermost? (See Isa. 59:1-2; Heb. 7:24-26.) Let’s look at these words in Hebrews 7 – makes me want to shout with joy at the depth of divine revelation of His love and grace evident in this passage:
“But this man (Jesus), because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens.” Hebrews 7:24-26
Christ came in the volume of the book of which it is written to break the chains of sin and Satan and lies!
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.” Luke 4:18
Why Did Jesus Come?
“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
“For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.” 1 John 3:8
There is only ONE Glorious Gospel Revealing One Unique Savior!
“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake. For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.” 2 Corinthians 4:3-7
The glorious Gospel of Jesus can go into the depths of the soul, convict, draw and save! Heavenly Father please forgive our unbelief and increase our faith, in Jesus’ name!
I must say that I was pleasantly surprised at the way Jesus touched the heart of this searching soul who was looking at someone else other than to the LORD for answers. His understanding had been diverted. My surprised response perhaps underscores the unbelief in my heart. God forgive me for counting the lies of Satan greater than the stone-crushing, devil-exterminating power of God’s eternal truth (Jer. 23:29). Never prejudge – just obey because “to obey is better than sacrifice” (1 Sam. 15:22). Always know that God’s Word never returns to Him void but always accomplishes that which He desires (Isa. 55:11).
In this late hour Christ is opening eyes and shattering the chains of darkness that bind so many – no matter what flavor of deception the enemy has used to blind them. The Holy Spirit and Word of God will break through to those who choose to have ears to hear. O LORD let the Gospel be heard from those whom He has found and redeemed – “Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy” (Ps. 107:2). Father please open doors for the ministry of Your Word. Open hearts and redeem souls Jesus! Our LORD Jesus came “To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me” (Acts 26:18).
JESUS came to make captives free. SATAN’s agents seek to put you in bondage! (Luke 4:18; John 10:10; Galatians 2:4-5; 5:1)
As the demon-possessed maniac at Gadara experienced, to those who hear, repent, and believe, Christ, the power of God, is the chain–breaking, shackle-shattering Savior and LORD!
“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.” 1 Corinthians 1:18
“Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish: To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life.” 2 Corinthians 2:14-16
As we are blessed to communicate God’s love and Word, He is going to deliver souls and take people off the chain the enemy has bound them with!
“It is a spiritual issue. Was in my room reading then started getting all these thoughts to kill myself. It started getting louder I knew this was a demonic attack and I was being tested! I thought I was losing my mind but Jesus came through and protected me! Showed me what he was trying to show me through a fiery trial. It’s all spiritual! I’ve never had thoughts like that in my entire life. No explanation. Praise Jesus!!” Nicole
Do you think that if some believer had gotten to this searching man first and gave him a Bible and communicated the Gospel, that it would have prevented the deception of a foreign religion from encroaching upon his precious soul?
“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.” Mark 16:15-20
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“So what are you saying people shouldn’t take antidepressants when they have a lack of serotonin in their brain which is why you take antidepressants?”
REPLY:
Is that the real answer? WHO gave that diagnosis? WHERE is our trust? Is GOD not enough to heal that supposed ailment if it’s true in the first place? Remember, doctors have to come up with a “diagnosis” in order to prescribe a drug. That’s how they make their money.
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“Have you ever suffered with a mental illness?”
REPLY:
Is it real? Is the issue material or spiritual? That’s where so many have bought the lie from the world’s doctors instead of going to the Word of God. It’s time to cease making excuse, repent, get into the Word and obey God. HE alone is our Salvation and will bring perfect wholeness just as we see Him doing in the Gospels (1 Thessalonians 5:23). This is a spiritual issue and James 4:7 gives the divine solution to shutting Satan out:
“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” James 4:7
PRAYER: Glorious LORD Jesus, please forgive my evil heart of unbelief and grant my heart a fresh start this moment! I repent now of all the idolatry, and spiritual adultery, evil unbelief, and how I’ve not trusted You but rather mere men. Thank You for Your infinite power and desire to redeem men and thank You for finding and saving me dear LORD. I love You LORD Jesus and thank You so much that You had no beginning and have no end and have always been and ever live to make intercession for the souls of men who will come to You for Your salvation which includes their spirit, soul, and body. Your salvation is complete and provides for the whole person of those You redeem. Please make me whole – spirit, soul, and body. Grant a sound heart and sound mind and body. As Your people fervently await Your soon return, please open up doors to joyfully communicate Your eternal Gospel to others! In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Bride of Heaven vs Harlot from Hell [podcast]
How Do We Know, Right Now, Who will be Seated at the at the Table, at the Great Supper of the Lamb? (Matthew 22; Revelation 19)
The remnant, those who will be present at the Great Supper of the Lamb in Heaven, are ALREADY feasting at the banqueting table of His Word. All others whom Jesus has saved in the past, are not fueled or flourishing but are rather famishing, fainting, and falling away.
The “little flock” of Christ desires to be with Him both now and forever, not just forever (Luke 12:32). They’ve been born again and present “abide” in/with the Savior (John 15:1-6).
No good man wants an arrangement but rather a marriage with a virtuous, faithful wife. He rightly desires a beloved wife in holy matrimony, not a whore to shack up with! Those who espouse OSAS are spiritual adulterers, whore mongers. They want a quick fix, an illicit affair that requires no commitment, carries no requirements.
The God fearing wife has set aside all else to serve her husband (1 Peter 3:1-7). She is not sidetracked nor does she waiver in her love and duty to her man. And this is what the true bride of Christ is doing today – setting aside the distractions and pursuits of this fleeting world and are seated at the feet of Jesus, waiting upon Him (1 John 2:14-17).
Her life is all about Him, not herself.
The heart of a true under shepherd is heard in these words from Christ’s apostle Paul: “I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.”
“For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. 3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.” 2 Corinthians 11:2-4
It’s the adulterous heart, the heart where Jesus is not truly the “first love,” the highest priority, that migrates to this sin-justifying system of theology called “eternal security” (Revelation 2:4-5). Jesus’ teaching concerning the five foolish virgins who were espoused to the Bridegroom (Jesus), and were later shut out of His bridal chamber, is clear proof that all who begin with Christ will not be with Him eternally (Matthew 25:1-13). Jesus invented the term “fall away” and told us that some who initially believe will later “fall away”—they will not “endure to the end” with Him (Luke 8:12-13; Matthew 10:22; 24:13). So, someone’s lying and it’s not the Son of God. Why would He use such words as “fall away” if these things weren’t possible, if it weren’t essential to “endure to the end” to be “saved”?
Paul says we, the saints of Christ on earth, are “espoused” to Christ the Bridegroom – engaged, not married (2 Corinthians 11:2-4).
With no exception, ALL wise virgin believers are in the Word daily. They commune with the Bridegroom and He fills them daily with His heavenly virtue, oil (Matthew 25:1-13).
Just because one is “espoused” to Jesus, that is, engaged to the Bridegroom of Heaven, doesn’t mean they will ultimately be married to Him as is proven in Christ’s parable of the 10 virgins where only 5 made it into the eternal bridal chamber with the bridegroom (Matthew 25:1-13). They other 5 were shut out for treating the engagement/espousal as a mere arrangement.
The most elaborate, the most grandiose dinner awaits the saints of Christ! Words cannot possibly express the grandeur of Christ’s welcoming dinner…. a celebration to end all others – the beginning, the inaugural celebration of eternity with Christ and His saints of all ages.
The foolish virgins are making excuse for sins (Proverbs 28:13a. The wise virgins are hastening to repentance (Matthew 25:1-13; Ephesians 5:25-27; 1 John 3:3; Revelation 19:7-10).
“Revelation 19:7-9: We are to ‘bear the image of the heavenly.’ (1 Cor 15:49).Our sinful nature crucified, sanctified, dead and buried, and then we take on the heavenly glorified nature of Christ! Our whole spirit, soul and body is being transformed more and more into the image of Jesus! (1 Thesolonians 5:23). We must be fully clothed in righteousness and holiness to enter the marriage supper of the Lamb! This is the only way to be accounted worthy! And not have our names blotted out of the book of life.” Karen Cochran
“Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour.” Proverbs 14:9
Mocking at sin relates to any lax or crass attitude toward what He that is Holy declares to be sin – which separates men from God. There’s is divine grace and favor on all who are honest, repent, and forsake sin.
“Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and HIS WIFE HATH MADE HERSELF READY. 8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. 9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.” Revelation 19:7-9
WHAT’s the use of talking about end times and the events of these final days if we aren’t even going to be “READY” when Jesus does return?
“Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.” Luke 12:40
Read the passage below as to exactly, specifically what Bride Jesus will return for and please explain how a person who genuinely got saved and now is living in sin is going to be Christ’s Bride eternally:
“Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.” Ephesians 5:25-27
“Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, 12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? 13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. 14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.” 2 Peter 3:12-13
As the husband and wife require their intimate personal time together for relations, so the bride of Christ must have her individual, set apart time of intimacy with the Bridegroom, Jesus. This is biblical imagery (Matthew 25:1-13; Ephesians 5:25-30; Revelation 19:7-9).
Christ’s bride that He will soon return for is holy and holy means set apart. Christ’s Heaven-bound disciples are known by their fervent loyalty to their Master, Jesus. Sweet fellowship with Christ is at the cornerstone of their schedule. The LORD is their undisputed priority. Having a daily, set apart time with Christ is essential of the infusion of Heaven’s nutrient-rich substance, to remaining in an abiding relationship with the Bridegroom (Psalms 27:4, 8; Matthew 5:6, etc.).
Drinking from the well of Heaven daily is the mainstay duty and practice of every true wise virgin believer (Matthew 25:1-13). Their relationship with their Bridegroom is their most important occupation. He’s absolutely first. Jesus is not a second class citizen in their life (Revelation 2:4-5).
Do we remember how Paul spoke of a man and wife coming together and how if they don’t, if they neglect intimacy, they will be tempted to migrate to someone else other than their mate? (1 Corinthians 7:1-5)
“Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. 2 Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband. 3 Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband. 4 The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife. 5 Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.” 1 Corinthians 7:1-5
Are we, are you rendering “due benevolence” to your LORD and Savior, the Bridegroom of Heaven? If not, you are being drawn away to another lover, a false god, an altar of idol worship.
You are Cordially Invited to this Great Supper of and with the Lamb of God
“And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.” Revelation 22:17
