The Doctrine of Jezebel:
The Curse of Feminism
“And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her.” Ecclesiastes 7:26
In this rebellion against the Creator, His purpose for creating the woman is defied. So, all participating persons are turned over to “strong delusion” for not loving and obeying the truth (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12). So, they become captive to evil spirits which make their lives all about seduction and manipulation.
Jezebels prey on weak men (Ahab’s), men are aren’t lovers of the truth. They migrate to these moral cowards who they can control and manipulate and use for their own self-serving purposes. They hate men who are truly strong in the LORD (Elijah’s), men who see them for who they are.
Men who are in the cross, living the crucified life, will always manifest jezebels and heretics! Bam. Jesus says to “Rejoice.” (Matthew 5:10-12)
Only ahabs – spineless moral cowards who refuse to stand on God’s Word – escape to scorn of jezebel
“While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.” 2 Peter 2:19
In 2 Peter 2, we read of the “false teachers” and “false prophets” the apostle Peter warns us about. They are said to possess the characteristic of promising freedom while leading into bondage – and this all begins when a person is “overcome” by a lie or something contrary to what the truth is, as revealed by the LORD in His Word.
The Jezebel woman is simply the woman who disregards what her very Maker and the Judge of her eternal soul says He desires and requires her to be as a member of the feminine gender. As he did in the Garden, Satan specifically targets the woman and namely the Christian woman. He is in the church world, breathing his strange fire into the very “sanctuary” that is supposed to be a bastion for what is upright and correct in the eyes of God (Psalms 74:4, 7; 1 Peter 5:8; Revelation 12:12, etc.). The church world is full of this type of woman who is not fulfilling God’s non-negotiable calling.on her life.
THE WICKED daughters of the enemy of all souls are following in the footsteps of Jezebel of old who operated in brazen rebellion to the LORD while being the wife of Israel’s king (Ahab). Many men today have followed the wicked ways of Jezebel’s husband, Ahab (2 Kings 9). The women rebel and so do the men who lust after them – whoremongers. Beloved, “Be not ye therefore partakers with them.” (Ephesians 5:7) “Whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.” (Hebrews 13:4) Satan’s doctrine to “liberate” women from God’s original and clear role for her is no new thing. “There is NO new thing under the sun.” (Ecclesiastes 1:9)
Satan wants to convince the woman that there’s a better way than God’s way and purpose. We must return to our God and His purpose for your lives (Hosea 14:1-3). Jesus told us that Satan is the thief who wants to steal the divine purpose of the LORD from us.
“The thief (the devil) 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
The one whom Jesus told us has come “to steal, to kill, and to destroy” has and is ruining the lives of millions upon millions of ladies and their victims (John 10:10; Revelation 2:20-23).
WE continue to see women daring to call themselves by the titles of apostles, prophets, and pastors. This could not be more unbiblical. Firstly, these are functions from God for men only and are not titles to use to glorify self (Ephesians 4:8-12; 1 Timothy 2:12). No, these are places of humble servitude for Christ’s glory alone (Matthew 20:20-28; 23:8-12; 1 Peter 4:10-11). Against the clear counsel of Christ, you also see spineless men and misled people allowing this without rebuking/correcting it (Revelation 2:20-23).
The thief is doing this by diverting both men and women from the original design of our Maker, the Judge of our eternal souls. In fact, in this late hour, there are so many women who claim to be Christians who have no joy or peace, fruit produced without fail in all who truly know and abide humbly in Christ (Galatians 5:22-23). They are no different than the lost women of this sinful world and it’s obvious in that they are empty – unfulfilled because they have erred from God’s original and still standing role for them as servant wives and mothers. Any woman not walking in our Creator’s purpose is and will always be miserable unless she repents, puts her faith in Christ and walks according to His stated purpose for her as a woman. No career, no amount of money, or any other counterfeit carrot is going to cure/solve her misery. Only the LORD can do that and He sure will for all who repent and return to Him. The greatest tragedy is that simple truth such as this is never addressed in the modern, apostate church world which is run by beguiling, self-serving wolves who have no godly fear or intestinal fortitude to set things in biblical order (Philippians 3:18-19). So, they suffer Jezebel (Revelation 2:20-24).
The LORD be praised for His God-fearing men and women who serve Him in sincerity and in truth! (1 Timothy 2:9-15; Titus 2:1-5; 1 Peter 3:1-7) They honor His Word and what it states of the divine purpose and order of the man, woman, family, and church.
One sister writes:
“The Jezebel spirit is out to destroy the work of God in the church and the home. Titus 1:11 warns us that there will be those who subvert houses, both church houses and households. This word subvert in the Strong’s Concordance (S.C.) (396 Gk.) means to overturn, overthrow. Overturn in the Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary (MWCD) means to cause to turn over: UPSET, invalidate, destroy and reverse the Word of God, Godly teachings, and the vision of the Lord for the ministry and household. Overthrow in the (MWCD) means to cause the downfall of: Bring down, defeat the ministry and her household with her perverted way of thinking, her wrong mindset, and her teachings.” C.
Bonnie R. Hutchins notes:
“Too many women are too hungry for a woman to follow after. They will elevate the woman above the Truth of God, and He will never share His Glory. Beware the Jezebel spirit~ Often women will listen to a she-wolf simply because they are too offended to learn from the godly, biblical teaching of men. They are easy prey for the female false prophet who is seeking to devour them. Flee from evil! ~In Jesus name!”
The woman who is possessed by this evil spirit is one who insists upon fighting for her “right” to usurp the places in the family and the church that her Maker designed for men (males) alone to fulfill. Jezebel views men as her enemy due to her own victimization by a mere man or men (some actual and some perceived). She now lives her life fighting for a futile cause while claiming to be serving the very one who said “But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.” (1 Timothy 2:12) While she believes that men are her enemy, it’s actually her master Satan who is her enemy. While she vainly imagines that she is fighting for what is right, she will soon be judged by the One who sees her as a rebel to Him and His order.
“The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; 4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, 5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.” Titus 2:3-5
Jezebel is the opposite of a “keeper(s) at home.” (Titus 2:5) She is a false accuser, teaches bad, not good things, refuses to love or respect her husband and her children by teaching them what is right, is not discreet, chaste, a keeper of the home, or obedient to her husband. Instead of keeping the home, Jezebel is busy being sinful, rebellious, loud, boisterous (outspoken), and stirring up trouble in the world, the church, and the family. Modern Jezebels have no desire or time to do what God called them to be and do. They are too busy marching, raising money, and fighting for women’s breasts (“cures” for cancer), women’s rights, animal rights, and planned murderhood (Susan G. Komen).
Exposing Jezebel’s agenda by living right, speaking out against Satan’s lies, or by disagreeing with her will land you on the list! And, if you are on that list, you should count it all joy and wear it as a badge of honor that the LORD’s agenda you are living is diametrically opposed to Satan’s agenda which is the Jezebel agenda.
WHILE calling others “feminists haters,” these same feminists, modern Jezebels, condemn other women who disagree with them – so, by their own definition, they are haters of women and abusers! Hypocrites is the more fitting term for such who are Satan’s children.
ANY person who dares to disagree with the evil doctrines of the modern Jezebels, is on their hit list. Well, if you are a person of truth, honoring the God who made men and women, then you have spoken truth and may be glad to know that you too are on Jezebel’s Hit List! Rejoice!
Assaulted by a “Worship” Leader with Brass Knuckles!
Testimony of Laureen H.:
“Every part of this poem (below) is the epitome of what I have been raising my daughters to be and am raising my son to look for in a future wife. This quote and my living this has for years placed me on the feminist hate list but I don’t care, it’s true!! There’s so many tough, coarse, rude, manipulative, women out there who are cruel and have crushed many men!!! I am praying that God will raise up men (real God-fearing men) to build up, to encourage, stand beside, pray with and cry with other men who need healing.”
Response:
Laureen, you are a rare blessing. The LORD is truly working in your life and in your precious family sister!!!!! There are little boys who will one day need a truly God-fearing wife who will need your daughters to be just that, in order to fulfill God’s perfect will in this earth as He ordained it to be. You should wear the fact that you are on Jezebel’s hit list (“feminist hate list”) as a badge of honor! You are being persecuted for righteousness’ sake and Jesus promised you will be greatly rewarded forever (Matthew 5:10-12). Those Jezebels who poses as liberators while bringing women into bondage, could not be more abominable before the Almighty than they are and will soon be vanquished into eternal damnation with the original Jezebel and her master, Satan! This is a spiritual battle at its core and not a battle of male and female! In fact, praise God for the opposite sex amen! There is so much beauty in our LORD’s creation! We must follow His plain instructions as to the roles of men and women – it’s really not that difficult and brings great blessings when we do!
Here’s the poem sister Laureen was referring to as one of the things that has gotten her “on the feminist hate list.” To them she is a traitor but to the LORD, she is His disciple, His true follower.
“The world has enough women who are tough; may I be a woman who is tender.
There are enough women who are coarse; may I be a woman who is kind.
There are enough women who are rude; may I be a woman who is refined.
There are enough women of fame and fortune; may I be a woman of faith.
There are enough women consumed with greed; may I be a woman consumed with goodness.
There are enough women consumed with vanity; may I be a woman consumed with virtue.
There are enough women consumed with popularity; may I be a woman consumed with purity.”
Assaulted with Brass Knuckles by a “Worship” Leader!
If you don’t think this battle is severe and that souls aren’t at stake, read this further testimony from Laureen:
“I know I am on the hate list of Jezebels. It’s constant, even when I walk into a room. When I walk into any room, they will start to act weird. In the past I was assaulted by one ‘worship’ leader. She used brass knuckles on me and there were 1 woman and 2 men attacking me. Oh and they led worship to the congregation 20 minutes later! I ended up with serious head injuries and was transferred to a big city hospital, I was also so traumatized, my balance was gone, and I had seizures. My speech is nearly perfect now since recovering from this attack. I can count again and my multiplication tables are almost back too. I can still play my instruments, and when dancing with the other ladies in the synagogue sometimes they hold my balance (because us women all hold hands when we dance). I have spoken now to other ministries, even ministries of drug addicts who are helping people get delivered. The Lord has blessed me to warn men how Delilahs and Jezebels operate, and practical things to look for in discerning them. And, my husband then speaks on how to practically deal with them biblically and survive, or live Scripture till the death!!! Back to the hospital and injury … the head injury is the reason why I have memory problems but even that is getting better. I am currently a living miracle because I am studying ancient biblical Hebrew translation at the University of Jerusalem and my private instructor is working for his doctorate. Thank God he is very, very extremely patient.
Beware because there are quite a few Jezebels who are starting to stay at home and try to look like keepers at home and spiritual. It’s getting weirder seriously!! These weird women are using nice sounding terms like ‘spiritual mothers,’ ‘kindred spirits,’ and other terms. You can see the fruit of this weirdness and you see spiritually dead families!!!!
Many women do have some Jezebel traits but everything can be overcome by faith and obedience to the LORD, taking Him at His Word and doing it, living it. Good fruit, beginning with God’s love, will result.
Judging the Fruit
“Jesus warned us that a tree is known by its’ fruit. How true that statement is, as our sister testifies. I am currently getting involved in a pro-life group of Christians who are taking a stand against the abomination of the despicable practice of child killing which is an epidemic in our country. The very women who loudly proclaim their ‘Right’ to choose, are the ones destroying their own daughters! WHAT about the rights of those beautiful baby girls? All civilized societies restrict the individual’s freedom to choose whenever that choice would harm an innocent person.
I enjoy working out at the YMCA before I go to my job and every morning, on one of the flat screens, I see Joyce Meyer in front of a large audience teaching and preaching; an audience which includes MEN! It is appalling to me, a father of three beautiful daughters and brother to three wonderful sisters, that any Christian man would abrogate his God given authority to a woman in direct violation of the written Word of God! Any woman who seeks to gain influence as a Christian teacher over men is disobeying the clear instructions of the Holy Spirit given to all of us who care to read the truth in God’s Word. The end result will be spiritual fornication.” – Steve Michels

JEZEBEL FEEDBACK:
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“I am not sure what bible you are reading but pastors can be both men and women. One of the first apostles aside from the twelve was a woman. And not all intercessors are witches. Actually the original text stated Junia was a woman but I’m not going to debate this with u. As your religious beliefs seems to believe that women cannot be in a place of authority when clearly even the book of Exodus shows that Merriam was in a place of authority.
Dude read that scripture carefully…tee scripture in genesis doesn’t refer to the woman seeking leadership u r interpreting that in your own way secondly the timothy scripture plainly states “I, Timothy” says it nit God. Again, Meriam was in a place of authority. Lastly, you neglect to realize that jewish custom and practices are not for us. bye. as i said i am not going to debate with your religious spirit. Women can be in a place of authority and kead. I know the calking God has placed on my life and the authority and demonstration of His power and anointing over my life and many other women.
Sorry but I am well learned in scripture and have a degree in theology and KNOW the WORD and KNOW my GOD and don’t need u to teach me scripture. i have been saved for 32 years serving alongside my husband as apostles, prophets and teachers. bye sir.
Not running from anything but a will not deal with a religious spirit but rebuke it in Jesus’ name! women in leadership are throughout the entire bible (Deborah, Esther, Junis, Mary Magdalene, not only in reference but Jesus himself himself gave authority to women and entrusted them over men. have a blessed day.
i don’t care what your writing says. i KNOW the word and capacity i operate in, but i won’t stand by and let u interpret as u see fit nor make women believe they cannot be in a place of leadership or authority when the Father called both men and women. If married, to work together.” Francesca
REPLY:
First, Miriam was the sister of Moses. What position of headship was she in? Chapters and verses please.
in the 27 books of the New Testament canon, where is there even one example of a group of woman who are an organized intercessory prayer team? This doesn’t mean that Christians aren’t to pray together and yet it’s a whole different thing than what we see in these all female intercessory prayer groups today.
God has a stated will. He had a special reason to say that women are not to be in leadership over men in His church/among His people. After the fall, in Genesis 3, He says that the woman’s desire will be to her husband which means she will desire his position of headship. Yet that headship is a non-negotiable. Perhaps the fact that she was the first to be deceived and instrumental in the man’s agreeing with her, after the fall she was relegated to being under his headship. Look here …..
1 Timothy 2 has a lot of answers:
“In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; 10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works. 11 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.”
I have nothing to hide or run from …. all I desire is to walk in His truth. Do you have something to hide or run from? ….. The original Greek does not hint of Junia being male or female.
Francesa, you seem to simply want this to be the case – so you are seeking to find validation for it. But it’s just not there. Not one of the 12 were female. Does that not tell us something? Jesus could just as easily have chosen 12 women but He chose none. Oh and by the way He created men and women. He was there at the fall. He knows more than any of us mere men that women need to be protected and this is why He told us they are not to be in headship or leadership over men. Also, Christ specifically addresses this and how it is forbidden and the great destruction it brings to people’s lives when women are allowed to be in authority where He forbid them to be. Read Revelation 2:20-23.
Using Junia to try to validate or build a whole Bible-contradicting doctrine that women can be in leadership over men in Christ’s body is weak at best. Here’s why …. Let’s look at the verse first:
“Salute Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen, and my fellowprisoners, who are of note among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me.” Romans 16:7
First off, it’s not conclusive that Junia was even a female. Secondly, the Bible has a built-in system of interpretation. – “This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word (doctrine, teaching) be established.” (2 Corinthians 13:1) There is no solid basis at all that Junia was even a woman, much less to say she was an apostle.
One ministry sums this up this way: “The early church fathers are not in agreement about the gender of Junia. There even seems to be evidence that strongly suggests Junia was a male. Commentaries differ on the gender. Translations differ on how Romans 16:7 is to be rendered into English. There are different uses of the Greek word “apostello,” and it cannot be conclusively demonstrated to which categorical use of the term Junia should fit into. Even if Junia were an apostle in the sense of having seen the risen Lord, it doesn’t mean she was in authority in the Church. Therefore, for someone to conclude that Junia was a woman apostle in full authority in the Church cannot be maintained from the Scriptures.”
You are clearly not under the authority of Jesus Christ. He’s calling you to repent truly friend… to lay down your life. You will not be saved until you do. When you do you will have a meek, humble spirit and abide as Christ and His holy apostles stated you should as a female, God fearing woman.
You are in full rebellion, not against me but rather against the LORD. He’s calling you to lay down your life. I don’t believe you are saved whatsoever friend. Your fruit is showing to be that of rebellion which is witchraft (1 Samuel 15:22-23). If you know the LORD and the Bible so well, why are you running for cover? What do you have to hide?
It’s interesting that you say you don’t need me to teach you Scripture (because you are unteachable, full of pride and rebellion) and yet, in rebellion against God, you want to rule over men and teach them. Jezebel is manifested in vivid reality here.
Okay, wow you will just saying anything won’t you and put God’s name on it? This is what taking His holy name in vain means…. you are doing it right here. You said “Jesus himself himself gave authority to women and entrusted them over men.” Okay, if so, please give us all chapters and verses.

“A true man or woman of God filled with the Spirit of God is usually hated, rejected, and despised by the carrier of the Jezebel Spirit.” Carol B.
“‘The Jezebel spirit’ is very real and is one of the main problems I see in the “modern American pop-culture church” There is a prevalence of Jezebel spirits running the whole show. They are everywhere manipulating weak men an usurping Holy Spirits leading…so that they may try to turn the bride of Christ into a spiritual harlot as they themselves are. Also, remember the spirit is not confined to just women. Many men are possessed by Jezebel as well.” Aaron S.
“Unfortunately I know quite a few of these Jezebels. And, they just never seem to stop, even when you think they have possibly changed! Still the same…still lying, manipulating, hurting everyone…and then never seem to know anything about it! Still playing the same old game.” Jennifer S.
“LOVE IT!!! I’m following Christ…I had been off track for too many years…NO ONE OR ANYTHING MEANS more than JESUS CHRIST to me….I realized that the fulfillment I was looking for could only be found in HIM and I have so much more peace in my life than ever before…Once I let go of people and realized I had to get in line and wait on God and bow to His will not the other way around!!!” Aquie H.
“Definitely Titus 2 as well as other great Scripture shows God’s divine order for the purpose for women and for His will and glory. It took me 40 years to finally say ‘Lord this isn’t working, show me!’ And, since then it’s been an honor to learn such beauty, responsibility and importance in such matter of ‘order.’ Because for sure I’ve witnessed that ‘it does not work’ any other way through three failed marriages with troubled and misled children. Yet, the only way is God’s way. Women aren’t so loving and supportive to one another as they should be an evil spirit has risen in our midst, It’s the ‘every woman for herself’ and it’s a vicious cycle that grows out of control and is passed down from generation to generation with even the simplest curse of ‘I hope you have kids 10 times worse than you.” (This is the very curse of Jezebel Jesus pronounced in Rev. 2:20-23). This is a powerful curse that needs broken and for women to get into the obedience of God by doing the very things He created and designed us to be. Even though women believe they can do it all, and they very well can but we weren’t designed or created to do it all ourselves and attempting such only causes havoc and chaos. Please pray for me. I am focusing only on what the Lord has led me to do as a Godly woman. It is quite trying and not an easy task with many who do not want to hear the truth of how and why God created the role of a woman in His divine order of creation. In doing so He made a completeness of His image through both the man and the woman in their seperate and very different roles together. We will be held accountable.” Kristine
25 Signs American Women Are Being Destroyed By The Sexual Revolution And Our Promiscuous Culture by Michael of endoftheamericandream.com
Has the sexual revolution been good for American women? Not at all. In fact, when you look at the facts it becomes clear that the sexual revolution has been an absolute disaster for American women. In the United States today, men have been trained to primarily view women as sex objects, and our culture has become exceedingly promiscuous. As a result, the United States leads the world in teen pregnancy, there are 19 million new STD infections every single year, more than half of all children born to women under the age of 30 are being born out of wedlock and we are witnessing the systematic breakdown of the family unit in America. And yet anyone that tries to teach our young women that they should dress modestly and keep themselves pure for marriage is severely criticized. Well, if all Americans actually did keep themselves pure until marriage, we wouldn’t have nearly the problems with STDs, teen pregnancy and abortion that we do today. The consequences of teaching our young women that they should be “free” to run around and sleep with a whole bunch of different men have been dramatic. The following are 25 signs that American women are being destroyed by the sexual revolution and our promiscuous culture…
#1 There are 19 million new STD infections in the United States every single year. Approximately half of them happen to young people in the 15 to 24-year-old age bracket.
#2 It costs the U.S. health care system approximately $17,000,000,000 every single year to treat sexually transmitted diseases.
#3 There were more than 1.4 million cases of chlamydia reported in the United States in 2011. An astounding 33 percent of those cases involved Americans that were younger than 20 years of age.
#4 It is estimated that about one out of every six Americans between the ages of 14 and 49 have genital herpes.
#5 24,000 American women become infertile each year due to undiagnosed STDs.
#6 In the United States today, approximately 47 percent of all high school students have had sex.
#7 Sadly, one out of every four teen girls in the U.S. has at least one sexually transmitted disease.
#8 According to one survey, 24 percent of all U.S. teens that have STDs say that they still have unprotected sex.
#9 Amazingly, one out of every five teen girls in the U.S. actually wants to be a teenage mother.
#10 If you can believe it, the United States has the highest teen pregnancy rate on the entire planet. In fact, the United States has a teen pregnancy rate that is more than twice as high as Canada, more than three times as high as France and more than seven times as high as Japan.
#11 When men don’t have to wait until they get married to have sex, then they are likely to delay marriage or never get married at all. According to the Pew Research Center, only 51 percent of all Americans that are at least 18 years old are currently married. Back in 1960, 72 percent of all U.S. adults were married.
#12 Today, an all-time low 44.2 percent of all Americans between the ages of 25 and 34 are married.
#13 In the United States today, more than half of all couples “move in together” before they get married.
#14 The divorce rate for couples that live together first is significantly higher than for those that do not.
#15 America has the highest divorce rate on the globe by a wide margin.
#16 For women under the age of 30 living in the United States today, more than half of all babies are being born out of wedlock.
#17 At this point, more than one out of every four children in the United States is being raised by a single parent.
#18 Approximately 42 percent of all single mothers in the United States are on food stamps.
#19 The sexual revolution has caused women to be primarily looked at as sex objects. In this kind of environment, it should be no surprise that there has been an absolute explosion of pornography in recent years. An astounding 30 percent of all Internet traffic now goes to pornography websites, and the U.S. produces more pornography than any other nation has in the history of the world.
#20 One survey discovered that 25 percent of all employees that have Internet access in America visit sex websites while they are at work.
#21 Overall, more than 50 million babies have been killed in America since Roe v. Wade was decided in 1973.
#22 When you total up all forms of abortion, including those caused by the abortion drug RU 486, the grand total comes to more than a million abortions performed in the United States every single year.
#23 The number of American babies killed by abortion each year is roughly equal to the number of U.S. military deaths that have occurred in all of the wars that the United States has ever been involved in combined.
#24 It has been reported that a staggering 41 percent of all New York City pregnancies end in abortion.
#25 One study found that 86 percent of all abortions are done for the sake of convenience.
So what can be done about any of this?
Unfortunately, turning our culture around would not be an easy thing. Loose sexuality is glorified on television, in the movies, on our radios and in our magazines. Just about everywhere you turn there are very powerful sexual images. The following is an excerpt from a recent article by Devvy Kidd…
America’s culture has come a long way since the 60s. For decades it has resembled a filthy sewer and shows no signs of returning to decency. Children are being sexualized with markets targeting little girls as young as kindergarten age. Cable television (which includes ABC, CBS, NBC) has become nothing more than a purveyor of soft porn. Sexual imagery is everywhere. The filth used to be confined to porn channels like HBO, Cinemax and others which I have never had in my home. Now, it’s the ‘big three’ (ABC, CBS, NBC) and all the other networks that consistently pump sin and sex into households every night of the week.
Meanwhile, we have raised an entire generation of young males that don’t know how to be men. Our culture has taught them to be extremely hesitant to be husbands and fathers, and instead it has taught them to be sex-obsessed idiots that want to “score” with as many women as possible.
As long as our culture pushes these values, we will continue to suffer the kinds of consequences listed above.
So what do all of you think about these things?
Do you believe that there is any hope for America?

RECENTLY brother Mark gave a JESUS tract to many while he was on an evangelistic walk, including a man named Angel. Angel then called brother Juan asking for help. Juan’s email address and phone number are on the back of the JESUS tracts now.
TODAY: Because you cared and prayed and gave, brother Angel received the love of our God in the form of a box of food and some cash ($27 USD). Oh and he gladly received a stack of JESUS tracts he is excited to pass out.
Juan has been in touch with Angel and here’s what he reported:
“On Saturday, Brother Ángel laid his wife and daughter to rest. They were riding a motorcycle when they were struck by a driver who was under the influence of alcohol. Although he has managed to provide them with a proper burial, he is now left without food. I am wondering if Brother Mark might be able to offer some support—he has shared his contact details with me, and he is currently unemployed. Perhaps some of the other brothers could reach out to help him; I will share this in the group, and I truly hope he can receive some assistance, as he is going through a very difficult situation. He has heard the Word of God—I shared the message of the Good News of Salvation with him—and he needs to see the love of God manifested through us, brothers.” Juan
Angel texted me this after being blessed by the body of Christ:
“Brother, Thanks so much, brother; this money will help me keep saving up for my rent. I really appreciate it—thank you so, so much. And please know that I’m more than happy to help you out with anything you might need. I’m letting Brother Juan know that I’m going to take the $500 (500 pesos = $27 USD) to the landlord, because he told me that if I didn’t give him something today, he would throw my things out and kick me out today. Thanks, brother. Honestly, if you ever need anything—washing your truck, clearing a piece of land, painting some things, whatever—just let me know, because I need to come up with the full amount for my rent.” Angel
Prayer: Feel free to lift up in prayer brother Angel – for his walk with Christ, his work life, and being able to pay the remainder of his rent. Angel is a typical Mexican man – super hard working. He’s obviously needing new clients.
As you can see, this blessing came right on time. God heard our brother’s cry and used you and I to delivered HIS blessing. As you can see, sounds like Angel would have been homeless tomorrow had God not intervened.
As God would have it, just before finding Angel to deliver the blessings, I met and old man who owns a store. Upon hearing the preaching of our LORD Jesus’ Gospel, the man rejoiced. We fellowshipped briefly, and he gladly received a stack of JESUS tracts to distribute.

“So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.” Acts 19:20
The weekly fellowship with brother Juan and brother Eduardo has been a blessing. Eduardo is the man who recently began emailing and texting. He said some “America guy” gave him a JESUS tract and it was like a gift from Heaven.
Eduardo is a born again brother in Christ who was much in need of fellowship (Hebrews 3:13; 10:24-25). This morning, brother Juan, who is super caring in God’s love and pastoral and evangelistic, ministered our LORD’s Word and love to brother Eduardo at length. Even though I can’t understand most of what they are saying in Spanish, there’s no doubt our LORD was edifying His son Eduardo.
Both these men are Spanish speaking. Here’s what Juan said at the end of our fellowship today with our brother Eduardo:
“Brother Eduardo says that he has faced discrimination from his family for becoming a Christian and following Jesus Christ. They have distanced themselves from him, as they prefer to practice a more traditional form of Catholicism—attending Mass and going to confession with a priest. But you know very well that it is God who chooses us, and we shall not be put to shame, because we have chosen the better part by believing in Jesus Christ. Amen.
Brother Eduardo says he’s unemployed and asks if you can help him in the group (to find work). He works in agriculture. He needs help with gardening, painting houses, or any other service because he’s unemployed. We need to see if you can support him here in this town.”
After a rich time of fellowship, both men were given coffee and breakfast and a small bit of cash as a way to bless them. Mexicans are very hard workers as you know and yet the economy in Mexico is not what it is in the US.
Thank you for caring for these beloved Mexican people, namely our brothers and sister in Christ.
Your prayers for the super receptive people of Mexico are a blessing. God is answering.
Lifelong Jewish lady now born again just got water baptized today.
Dear Mr. Augustine readily received the love God via His body (you!), the spoken Word of God, and the original Gospel on the JESUS tract. Your prayers and support make these things possible. Jesus is coming saints – and our hand is on the plow of our LORD Jesus’ bless-ed Gospel, the Great Commission He gave us (Luke 9:62). Everyone’s participation matters, greatly and will be rewarded accordingly (1 Samuel 30:24).
A man named Eduardo was given a JESUS tract today and is emailing me saying that he’s very excited to meet brother Juan, brother Mark, and myself this thursday for breakfast fellowship. God is good.
“If you have any, please let me know—thank you so much! An American man gave this to me on the street; it feels like it fell from the sky! Thank you very much…hugs”
There’s simply no way for us to report on every person who is being touched daily. It’s literally getting out of control. The LORD is marching into the hearts of the Mexican people.
“Wow!! Wow!! Wow!! The receptiveness in Mexico is beyond my comprehension! Even to the point of this man saying this gospel feels like it fell from the sky. Well I guess it did. Jesus came from heaven to earth to show us the way and seek and save those who are lost (Luke 19:10). Praise God for the many souls who are being reached daily with the gospel of Christ. God is well pleased!” Karen Cochran
PRAYER REQUESTS:
For Juanita and her sons Jesus and Victor. Beloved Juanita pictured below. She brought me into the gate of her house and said “Mi casa es tu casa” = my house is your house. A completely bless-ed lady who readily received the ministry of the Word, the glorious Gospel of Jesus. She may already be saved, I don’t know but she now knows who to repent and receive Jesus if not.
Also Fatima, a young mother with a little girl who receive ministry today.
They just moved here to this town today from CDMX (Mexico City).
Thank you.
God knows.
What to pray?
Colossians 4:12 boom.
In Jesus’ name.
“… The living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;” 1 Timothy 6:17
Some of the things one must suffer by going to “third world” Mexico to preach Christ’s original Gospel. Don’t worry, the cost of living here is much lower cost than the US.
Immediately upon handing a man the JESUS tract today, he lit up and hugged me. He was so excited because he’s born again and his father and grandfather are pastors. His name is Israel.
We connected and Israel and brother Juan are now connected and communicating. Juan gladly took some JESUS tracts to distribute. Would you like to pause and lift our brother Israel to the LORD in a prayer? (Philippians 1:19)
How do you find the saints in an area you go into? Just evangelize and watch God work.
*Below is a picture of one of the many men who received a JESUS tract this morning.

Jesus is coming saints.
Breakfast fellowship with the brethren of our LORD …
in “third world” Mexico.
Oh boy if people only knew.
It’s a blessing that with your prayers, love, and financial support, you are declaring that “The People of Mexico Matter for Christ—He died to save them!”
“So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.” Acts 19:20
IF YOU WANT TO PLEASE SATAN …..
MAKE SURE you do NOT support authentic evangelistic ministries that are literally, actually getting Christ’s Gospel to the lost souls of this world.
The apostle Paul did “the work of an evangelist” and instructed us to do the same.
“Preach the word … But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.” 2 Timothy 4:2, 5
Our KING is coming saints, King JESUS!
Let’s roll beloved of God!
in Christ

What did the First Missionaries Do/Preach?

Concerning false leaders, Jeremiah pens these words: “they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.” (Jeremiah 23:14)
God counts our sin of spiritual “adultery” as that of “Sodom” and “Gomorrah.” Do we not betray the Most High whom we claim to know and love when we “strengthen also the hands of evildoers?” Aligning with someone or organization that is in error will strengthen their evil cause and the LORD will turn His hand of blessing away from us (2 Chron. 18-19).
Recently I listened to a missionary to Mexico tell about his work down there. Unfortunately, he spoke more than once of Rick Warren (who is in deep deception and was trained under deceiver Robert Schuller) and yet not once did he declare or mention the name of Jesus Christ nor did he speak of the Gospel – the death, burial and resurrection of the Son of God (1 Cor. 15:1-4). So, what is this man doing in Mexico? What are his supporters supporting/furthering? Didn’t Paul say “God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our LORD Jesus Christ”? (Gal. 6:14) And, that he “determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.” (1 Cor. 2:2) There is “none other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved.” (Acts 4:12)
This counterfeit has the wherewithal to proclaim known deceivers and yet not Jesus Christ?!
Not one Scripture was quoted or even referred to by this “missionary” during his hour talk about his family’s work in Mexico. What does this tell us about his work among those people? What is this man importing to Mexico if it’s not the true Gospel?
Important Biblical Discernment Truth: Jesus said that “ye shall know (discern) them by their fruits” and “out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh” (Matt. 7:16; 12:34). So, by what men say and don’t say, we know (discern) who they really are. Real simple isn’t it?
I hope you know that I am speaking from a place of zeal for the LORD and earnestly contending for the Gospel faith once delivered to His saints (Jude 3-4).
What are we supporting here by sending a man who doesn’t even speak the words of the LORD? Whose cause is he promoting? How could and why would the living God empower a man who doesn’t honor Him and His Word? Where are we putting God’s resources (money)? Will there be any rebuke to this man? Will anyone seek to disciple him? If not, then are we not enabling such dissimulation and promoting “another gospel”? I wonder today how much “missionary” work has to do with the biblical model of making disciples, but is rather establishing the thoughts, philosophies, and curriculums of mere men and teaching people to go through these psycho-babblish programs and learn everything but the pure divine Word (1 Pet. 2:2). When people/victims come out of these programmed classes, one thing is certain – they don’t know the Word of God, so it’s ALL in vain. After all, it seems like the writings of mere men have taken precedence over God’s holy and precious Word in the apostate organized modern church world.
What did the first missionaries do/preach?
“And they, when they had testified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans.” (Acts 8:25; 13:5; 14:25; 15:36; Mk. 2:2)
Those who know Christ and are prepared for ministry preach His Word. If they preach ANY ANY “ANY other gospel”, they are “accursed” and to be treated as such by God’s people (Gal. 1:6-9). If a man claims in any capacity to represent Christ and yet doesn’t preach Jesus Christ and His original Gospel, “there is NO light in” that beguiler (Is. 8:20). He is a wolf in sheep’s clothing (Matthew 7:15).
According to the law of Genesis 1, we can only produce after what we ARE, not what we say or convince others into believing we are. Genesis 1:11 says “the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seedis in itself.” So, whoever I am here, I am in China or Russia or Mexico.
Beloved, what is important is the quality of the seed and the richness of the soil. The Gospel is the riches of God’s love in Jesus Christ, of which Paul was not ashamed because it is “the power of God unto salvation” unto those who were given it and believed (Rom. 1:16). Where the Gospel is honored fully, the soil is rich. If a person has not been faithful in his own nation in the true Gospel of Jesus, he is not fit to win the lost in another country and should never be sent or supported. If this missionary was not soundly grounded in God’s Word before he left to go to Mexico, then why did God’s people ever send him? Does a person become a missionary when his feet hit foreign soil? Of course not. And, remember, Jesus loves and seeks to save the people on American soil as much as He loves people on Indian, Africa, Mexican, and Chinese soil. In light of this, I don’t think we should entertain the idea that when we give to foreign missions, there is any difference than giving to Gospel workers here in America.
Isaiah was Prepared, Commissioned, and Sent by God. See Isaiah 6.
So, when we fund missionaries who do not possess the Word, or the Word doesn’t possess them, we are funding the spread of a false gospel (2 Cor. 11:1-4; Gal. 1:6-9). “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly (abundantly).” (Col. 3:16)
In the midst of citing the evil of the false shepherds of Israel, Jeremiah the prophet introduces a rhetorical question which is actually an identifier of true and false servants:
“For who hath stood in the counsel of the LORD, and hath perceived and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard it?” Jeremiah 23:18
Those who stand in the counsel of the LORD (not men) and perceive and hear His Word, marking it and hearing it again and again, are true. All others are false and will inevitably peddle a false message.
When speaking of leadership in the body of Christ, the Scriptures instruct us to “know them which labour among you.” (1 Thess. 5:21) Concerning the ordaining of men into ministry, the LORD tells us“Lay hands (ordain into ministry) suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men’s sins: keep thyself pure.” (1 Tim. 5:22) When we ordain or set forth and condone any man before we really know his life and doctrine, we will inevitably “be partaker of other men’s sin.” In other words, we will be equally to blame for the sin and error that man promotes and for all the people he misleads. We are mandated to “keep thyself pure” of this wickedness. This is a very serious issue. The support, promotion, condoning, or aligning with any person in ministry that is preaching “another gospel” brings a curse upon ourselves as we enjoin him in sin against God and the spreading of a false gospel (Is. 5:20-24; Gal. 1:6-9; 2 Chron. 19:2). We are commanded to withhold blessing from him lest we become “partaker of his evil deeds.”
“If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.” 2 John 10-11
Bidding “God speed” is pronouncing an approval blessing upon a person or ministry. If such is done to any person who is not communicating the original gospel, it is “another gospel” and it is a deadly sin to condone –“bid him God speed.” Any person who does such “is partaker of his evil deeds.” This means that those who support in any way any person or ministry organization that does not definitively and forthrightly declare the original Gospel, are counted just as guilty as the peddler himself. Anyone who does not bring the biblical doctrine of Jesus Christ who is divine and came in the flesh, is “a deceiver and an antichrist.” (2 Jn. 7) All such counterfeit ministers are false and to be shunned and not blessed or promoted or esteemed among God’s people – “Keep thyself pure.” (1 Tim. 5:22) Anyone among God’s people who helps the person not bringing the true Gospel – bids them God speed – and is “partaker of his evil deeds.” In other words, he will reap the same punishment as the man peddling another gospel other than that which Christ and His apostles gave us in the New Testament record.
We will be held responsible for supporting any person who is spreading lies and weakening the people through falsehoods and promoting false prophets. When we financially or otherwise support a ministry which is not according the New Testament record, we become “partaker of other men’s sins.” (1 Tim. 5:22)
When we set forth any person who is not called, anointed by the Holy Spirit, and prepared in the Word and the crucified life, we launch evil upon everyone that “novice” influences. We also harm the unprepared man greatly and most importantly, we bring disdain to the name of Jesus Christ. God grant us wisdom from His Word and forgive our sins! Concerning the launching of people into ministry, the Holy Spirit directs: “Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.” (1 Tim. 3:6)
Don’t you know that the enemy laughs all the way to the bank when God’s true people cast their revenues into the coffers of those who are not preaching the true Gospel? Do we want to fund wolves in sheep’s clothing? Who shall we fear? See Galatians 1:6-10
CREDENTIALS FOR MINISTRY
“But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, Persecutions, afflictions…” 2 Timothy 3:10-11
God’s Fruit according to 2 Timothy 3:10: Here are 9 earmarks of an authentic servant of Christ who would be prepared to serve in ministry:
- doctrine
- manner of life
- purpose
- faith
- longsuffering
- charity
- patience
- persecutions
- afflictions
The fruit identifies the root (Jn. 15; Rom. 11:16). When a man is relationally and biblically rooted in and abiding in Jesus Christ, his fruit will among other things be that of truth, love, joy, peace, longsuffering (patience), evangelism, charitable deeds, the care of souls, and the love of children. If a man’s life is not pure and he is not seeking the LORD diligently and daily in repentance and brokenness, he simply does not yet have the fruit of one who is to be set forth into ministry. Let’s walk in God’s written wisdom (His Word) and cease to enable any ministry that is not soundly rooted and grounded in God’s Word and love and purposes as revealed clearly in the Holy Scriptures.
“Thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.” Psalms 138:2
Have we magnified His Word above all else? Or something else above His Word? Have we magnified HIS Word above the names of all sinful men and their inferior writings? Or, are we despising the Almighty LORD Jesus Christ by elevating the words of mere men?
“I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.” Psalms 138:2
Do we search out and find His Words and eat/devour them like a hungry man who hasn’t eaten in days?
“Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.” Jeremiah 15:16
Do we rejoice at men’s words or at God’s Word?
“I rejoice at thy word, as one that findeth great spoil.” Psalms 119:62
Are we daily eating and allowing His Word to be our life?
“It is written, That man shall not live (have God’s life) by bread alone, but by every word of God.” Luke 4:4

What about Suicide – Self Murder?

Does Someone Who Commits Suicide (murders self), Go to Heaven or Hell?
IT’S REAL SIMPLE:
1. WHO is the Judge? God! (James 4:12)
2. Has the Judge spoken? Do we have a Bible which is His tangible written Word? Is the Bible God’s very Word? YES! – and so we have His very Word which He has lifted even above His own Holy name! (Psalms 138:2)
Some crassly set aside God’s very Word, as if He is silent on this matter. That’s ridiculous at best.
Playing dumb seems to be the mode of many, but the LORD is “not the author of confusion.” (1 Corinthians 14:33)
At the funerals of those who kill/murder themselves, false preachers intimate and blatantly say that the dead person who committed suicide is now “in a better place.” By doing this, these wolves embolden members of the listening audience to kill themselves also, all the while not realizing they are in for the most excruciating pain unknown to man on earth. “Ending it all” is a foolish lie. The worst thing any person in history has ever suffered is a dream of comfort compared to what lies ahead for those who die without a personal, born again relationship with Jesus Christ. Oh, and the lake of fire will never end, nor will consciousness (Mark 9:42-49). See Hell’s Menu here.
Some will say “But God knows the heart, we don’t.” God sure does know the heart and Jesus told us that all sin – sin separates us from Him and will damn us – comes from the HEART. “And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. 21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, MURDERS, 22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: 23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.” Mark 7:20-23
When the LORD looks on a heart of murder, what will He do? Rev. 21:8; 1 John 3:15
“NO MURDERER hath eternal life abiding (remaining) in him.” 1 John 3:15
How impugning to the LORD it must be when those claiming to be saved ignore, and brazenly disregard Him by denying His Word and what He plainly stated. What did Jesus say about these are ashamed of Him and His Word? See Mark 8:38 and John 8:47.
There’s a deeper root in the lives of those who can’t simply read God’s very words and take Him at His Word. Damnable unbelief is the root (Revelation 21:8). Repentance is necessary.
According to Revelation 21:7-8, one of the things that must be overcome is murder and that doesn’t matter if it’s killing self or someone else.
Not wanting to live is the symptom of separation from God. Those who turn to the LORD are saved and blessed to have in their hearts His blessed victory and “Love, joy, peace …”(Galatians 5:22-23) Suicide is never the answer and will result in the beginning of an eternity in more pain than any of us could ever imagine. Getting saved is the answer, not killing yourself. Keep reading friend. You are not reading this by accident and your answer is at hand!
THE JUDGE HAS SPOKEN AND HERE’S WHAT HE SAID:
“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and MURDERERS, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” Revelation 21:8 (KJV)
“NO MURDERER HATH ETERNAL LIFE ABIDING (REMAINING) IN HIM.” 1 John 3:14-15
What could possibly be plainer?
The truth is self-evident. The Bible is self-interpreting. The problem is with the corruption of calvinism in the minds of many who make their evil traditions more important the God Himself (Mark 7:6-9).
It should deeply anger us to see ourselves or others who deny the LORD by denying His very Word. Instead, they philosophy, reason, and justify. This is what God calls “an EVIL heart of unbelief.” (Hebrews 3:12)
“Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, MURDERS, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.” Galatians 5:22-23
The world acts like depression justifies murdering self. Not. Depression can be a reality for good and bad reasons and yet murdering God’s creation is never the answer and is always a soul damning sin (Galatians 5:19-21; 1 John 3:15; Revelation 21:8; 22:15). Suicide is sin. Suicide will damn the soul irrevocably in hell.

MURDER is a soul damning sin and it doesn’t matter if you are murdering someone else or yourself – because GOD made you. You didn’t make yourself. HE is to decide when you are to leave this His earth. Hell awaits all who commit suicide.
What about capitol punishment – the death penalty?
“Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.” Genesis 9:6
“The institution of capital punishment presupposes the establishment of governmental authority. It would be chaos if anyone and everyone avenged a murder. Only duly appointed governments may do so. The NT perpetuates capital punishment when it says concerning the government, “. . . he does not bear the sword in vain” (Rom_13:4).” Believer’s Bible Commentary
Intriguing Suicide Dialogue/Feedback:
“I was gonna commit suicide almost 3 yrs ago. However, GOD stopped me from doing it. I knew that I was going to spend forever in eternal darkness. It was the Holy Spirit who stopped me.” Harry S.
Email Rec’d:
Hi Todd,
I have a question for you in regard to what the Word say about suicide. What about the person who is trusting in Jesus as their Savior, but continues to struggle and be tormented by demons who play on their deep depression … resulting in suicide? I had a friend who committed suicide. It was her 2nd attempt that did her in. She was digging deep into God’s word and really growing in the word, yet she struggled with a debilitating depression that only her husband and family knew the depth of. I witnessed her desire to push through and LIVE…but in small moment of weakness she succumbed to other voices and shot herself through the head. It was a difficult thing to grasp, as she was an incredible grandmother and friend to the down and out. She had the gift of easing others burdens by being a joyous giver. She was purposely dragging herself out of her bed and attending bible studies, Sundays and Wed. to get God’s word into her. She considered God’s word her medicine. I watched her make a valiant effort over the years to live and to honor God…so naturally I wonder about this. Isn’t it possible that for whatever reasons that demons can just overcome a mind in a moment of weakness and push them over that line? The thing I wonder about is God’s mercy and grace in such a case. I can just imagine her crying out to Jesus before she pulled the trigger. She was mentally ill and her Godly family did everything possible to help her. I see what God’s word says and I wholly agree that suicide is wrong and so much easier for the unsaved to get to that point. But what about this sister in Christ? I see some gray areas in this scenario.
Naturally I hope she’s with the Lord….but I really do not know
Janet
Response:
Hi Janet.
One of my good friends, once a vibrant and fruitful believer, also committed the sin of murdering himself (suicide). Think about and mediate upon this:
“Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: 14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. 15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.” James 1:13-15
I believe that if a person is that deeply depressed and defeated it seems that that’s evidence that they were not trusting Christ who is the life and holds all victory in His hands and grants it to all who truly are trusting and walking with Him (1 John 5:4-5; 1 Cor. 15:57). From Scripture we see many examples of small moments of weaknesses resulting in eternal ruin because that small moment of weakness was the culmination of a life that was seemingly seeking the LORD but full of the mixture of rebellion. Judas had obviously been departing from Christ long before he made that final, fatal decision to betray the very Son of God. – “Judas by transgression (act of sin) fell, that he might go to his own place (eternal hell).” (Acts 1:25) Judas was a “familiar friend” of Jesus, clearly a child of God – chosen to occupy an eternal place with Christ (Ps. 41:8; Matthew 19:28).
I know this sounds very harsh and yet, I must answer according to the Word of God best I see it to date. Christ grants total victory and as we are seeking His holy face and abiding in Him. As we do, we are delivered from sin and devils (John 15:1-6; James 4:7; 1 John 3:5-6, 8; Rev. 12:11). Christ is synonymous with victory. Yes, we have all failed and sinned in our weaknesses and yet there are absolutes in God’s economy and one of them is “no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.” (1 John 3:15)
“For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. 5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5
Now, if a person is in the process of committing suicide and it’s not a sudden death and they are able to call upon the LORD in repentance on their way out of here, then I fully believe Jesus will save them as He did the thief on the cross who called upon Him.
God’s blessings be with your family sister.
Todd
