“Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.” 1 Corinthians 14:29

All prophetic words must be “judged” or tested to be proven true or false against the perfect standard – God’s written Word. The written Word of God is called the “MORE sure word of prophecy.” (2 Pet. 1:19) The same Holy Spirit who inspired the written Word will never speak contrary to it (2 Peter 1:20-21).

The Holy Spirit has ALREADY SPOKEN – between Genesis 1 and Revelation 22! Anything that is of God that is spoken today must line up with Holy Scripture which is the “more sure word of prophecy.” (2 Peter 1:19-21)

“No prophecy is valid unless it is positively confirmed by God’s holy Word.” David Wilkerson

Because we know that God’s written Word is FINAL Divine Authority, we are not impressed with those who run around with “a word” for people.

Note “NOW” and “THENNNNN” – “For NOW we see through a glass, darkly; but THEN face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.” (1 Corinthians 13:12) When someone, when a ministry is dazzling dupes with this idea that THEY has some kind of inside scoop with God – you know you are dealing with an antichrist wolf! RUN! LOTS of devils parading themselves as special, as having a special place with God and always getting “words,” so they say. But, WHERE are those “words” coming from? WHAT spirit?

Many seek to capitalize on your desire to discern, know, and follow God’s will. Beware.

God’s Word says “despise not prophesyings” and yet in the very next sentence it also warns us to “prove (test) all things.” (1 Thessalonians 5:20-21) I don’t even read most “prophecies,” prophetic words, dreams, visions, etc. that circulate these days. Most of these “words” are coming from un-grounded novices, or flagrant flakes who don’t simply “Preach the word” but rather keep the circus wheels of their “ministry” spinning by their continual words (2 Timothy 4:2-4). Not that I despise them and yet the Word of God is inherently prophetic and the primary way God leads and guides His New Testament church (Isaiah 46:9-10; 2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:19-21, etc.).

“Despise not prophesyings. 21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.” 1 Thessalonians 5:20-21

Prophetic or Pathetic?

“Despise not prophesyings” (1 Thessalonians 5:20) and yet, beware of those who use gifts or supposed gifts to ensnare you, to thrill you with THEIR abilities, and not for the edification of the body of Christ for the glory of Jesus alone (1 Corinthians 14:1-5; 1 Peter 4:10-11).

“For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted. 32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets. 33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.” 1 Corinthians 14:31-33

The “sword of the Spirit” is “the word of God.” (Eph. 6:17) God the Holy Spirit will never contradict or speak contrary to the very words He inspired. This would be impossible.

“And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.” Ephesians 6:17

The Bible instructs us to “Despise not prophesyings” and also instructs us to “let the other judge.” (1 Cor. 14:29; 1 Thess. 5:20)

We are hemmed in by these two divine instructions concerning prophecy. On one hand we are to place all prophecy on trial against the “more sure word” to see whether or not it is genuinely from God. On the other hand, we must not despise prophesyings, but be open to God speaking to us through prophecy which will always glorify God in Christ and minister “unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.” (1 Cor. 14:3; 1 Pet. 4:10-11)

“Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy. For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries. But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort. He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church. I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater (as a servant) is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.” 1 Corinthians 14:1-5

As Christ’s disciples we are exhorted here to “desire spiritual gifts.” v3 We are also instructed to be “good stewards of the manifold grace of God.” (1 Pet. 4:10-11)

We must not shun all prophecy because of the false ones we witness, yet we must test all “words” against the ultimate authority of the written Word of God.

“Quench not the Spirit. Despise not prophesyings. Prove (test) all things; hold fast that which is good.” 1 Thessalonians 5:19-21

Let’s review what we just read in 1 Thessalonians 5:

“Quench not the Spirit”
“Despise not prophesyings”
“Prove (test) all things”
“hold fast that which is good”

“All things” must be put to the Biblical acid test to see whether they are true or false. This includes doctrine, behavior, fruit, teachings, prophecies, motives, etc. On that note, what are some of the things we know about Christ´s apostle Paul and every true man of God? What is the first thing he lists that we know about Paul?

¨But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, 11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.¨2 Timothy 3:10-11

The person who pretends to prophesy for the LORD and can’t even quote a few of His Scriptures from “the more sure word of prophecy” has no business being allowed to function (especially extensively) among God’s people as one who is operating with an authentic prophetic gifting (2 Pet. 1:19-20). The person who does not know God’s Word cannot possibly himself judge what he thinks he is hearing from God against the holy standard if he doesn’t know that standard (the written Word).

GOD already told us in His Word all we need to know about these final days (Isaiah 46:9-10; 2 Peter 1:3-4; 19-21, etc.). Gauging all things by the written Word is key to escaping the prophesied end time apostasy. Some people choose to be led astray by the “MANY false prophets” Jesus warns us about who would “deceive MANY.” (Matthew 24:11)

THE LIFE OF DISCERNMENT

God’s method of teaching His children to discern is primarily through His holy Word:

“But strong meat (deeper Biblical truths) belongeth to them that are of full age (spiritually mature), even those who by reason of use(of the written Word) have their senses exercised to discern (discriminate between) both good and evil.” Hebrews 5:14

Remember to always “prove (test) all things.” The word “All” here can refer to doctrines, fruit, dreams, visions, prophecies, etc. As wise virgin believers who are diligently watching and staying ready by keeping their lamps full, we must never be naïve, but discerning in all things concerning the will of God (Prov. 14:15; Col. 1:9-10; 1 Jn. 4:1, etc.). Knowing the will of God assures that we will be able to discern what is not His will.

“Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.” Proverbs 30:5-6

You know who is under Christ’s authority and who isn’t – by what Jesus told us in John 8:47: “He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.” The men whose conscience’s are captive to the Word of God are God’s men and all others are counterfeits.

False prophets and teachers, who are Satan’s agents (2 Cor. 11:13-15), constantly attempt to whittle away at the doctrinal walls which keep the righteous safe from deception. In this the enemy of our souls, like a skilled boxer, is seeking to get us to drop our guard (God’s Word), so that he can move in for the kill. Remember that it is “Satan” who “cometh immediately, and taketh away the word.” (Mk. 4:15) Our LORD desires and expects us to know His will so that we are not duped by men or devils (Eph. 4:14). To know His Word is to be able to distinguish between evil and good, holy and profane (Ezek. 44:23).

“Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.” Ephesians 5:17

“What is His will?”, you might ask. God’s written Word is His will (see Rom. 1:16-17; 2 Pet. 1:3-4; Prov. 22:19-21; Ps 33:11; 119:105; Joshua 1:8). There is no mystery here. You never again need to wonder what God’s will is. He has seen fit to have His Word on record for us. This is to allow us the privilege of possessing His written will (Rom. 15:4; 1 Cor. 10:11). And, in knowing His will, we are able to discern what is not his will. Consequently, we will not be “tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine (or prophecy), by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive.” (Eph. 4:14)

“The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.” Psalms 33:11

The Holy Spirit will never speak contrary to His eternal oracles given to us in written form (in the Bible). The written will of God is what is referred to in Scripture as the “more sure word.” (2 Pet. 1:19) Though He does inspire prophecy today (1 Cor. 12:7-10, etc.), God will never inspire anyone to speak contrary to His unchanging Word once delivered to the saints (Jude 3). The Holy Spirit and the Word work hand in hand (Eph. 6:17). In fact, it was God the Holy Ghost who inspired the written Word (2 Pet. 1:20-21; 2 Tim. 3:16). So, any prophecy that does not align with Scripture is clearly not from God and must be exposed as such to warn others, lest they be deceived and misled by it (2 Cor. 10:5; Eph. 5:11; Gal. 1:6-9). If the person who gave the false prophecy refuses to repent and publicly recant after being confronted, he must also be removed.

“To the law and to the testimony (written Word): if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.” Isaiah 8:20

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

The written Word, which reveals the LORD and His will, must always be earnestly contended for and defended (Jude 3; Phil. 1:17). Pray for discernment and be exercised in the performance of His Word (will), so that you will not be beguiled. If you do not know the written Word (LOGOS), you will have no basis or standard to discern doctrines and prophecies against, so you will consequently be vulnerable to deception. Here is God’s prescription for this deficiency:

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

Okay beloved, be exhorted to always walk in discernment. “Keep (guard) thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” (Prov. 4:23) “Keep thyself pure.” (1 Tim. 5:22) Remember to prayerfully and with the Holy Scriptures “Prove (test) all things; (and) hold fast that which is good.” (1 Thess. 5:21)

Does all prophecy have to be literal Scripture? No. Prophecy, if it’s from God, will never contradict His written Word and yet, does it have to be verbatim Scripture? Don’t think so. there’s never going to be anything better than simply quoting God’s Word, amen. Yet note “according to” and “as of” in Isaiah 8:20 and 1 Peter 4:11.

“To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.” Isaiah 8:20

“If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God.” 1 Peter 4:11

When Agabus prophesied to the apostle Paul, it wasn’t verbatim Scripture and yet it was according to Holy Scripture.

“And in these days came prophets from Jerusalem unto Antioch. 28 And there stood up one of them named Agabus, and signified by the Spirit that there should be great dearth throughout all the world: which came to pass in the days of Claudius Caesar.” Acts 11:27-28

“And as we tarried there many days, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus. 11 And when he was come unto us, he took Paul’s girdle, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles. 12 And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go up to Jerusalem.” Acts 21:10-12

Lying Spirits in the Mouths of the Prophets

ANYONE attempting to be doing ministry and is not grounded in Scripture, is not speaking THE WRITTEN WORD, is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Rebuke them sharply (Titus 1:13). This includes all the demon infested NAR, Bethel cultists, the “prophetic” frauds. There’s a divine filtering system at work and that’s why true disciples of Christ today are sounding the alarm on the witchcraft cults of Bethel and IHOP who are sending forth a myriad of deceivers. Bethel and IHOP etc are part of the NAR (New Apostolic Reformation) movement. The warlocks of this modern church movement include wolves like Bill […]

“THAT REPENTANCE AND REMISSION OF SINS SHOULD BE PREACHED” [podcast]

“God … commandeth ALL men every where to repent.”

“And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: 31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.” Acts 17:30-31

WHEN’s the last time your favorite preacher preached on the essential doctrine of REPENTANCE? Be sure of this – Christ’s true remnant is preaching repentance. Are you preaching that men must repent to be saved and ready for judgment? (Acts 17:30-31) If not, you are in need of repentance – before it’s too late. The lack preaching repentance is the fruit, the clear evidence that someone is not walking in the original Gospel of Christ but rather “another gospel” – a false gospel (Galatians 1:6-9)

With No Exception Christ’s True Body is Preaching that God Commands ALL Men Everywhere to Repent.

ALL who do not preach that men must repent to be saved are preaching “another gospel” and are “accursed.” (Galatians 1:6-9) Chamge my mind with Scripture!

Jesus commands His people to preach repentance. Did you know that? Oh and is there something else we are to preach? Yes. See if you catch it here in Jesus’ mandate to us:

“And that REPENTANCE AND REMISSION OF SINS SHOULD BE PREACHED in his name among all nations.” Luke 24:47

“Repentance and” what? – “repentance AND remission of sins” are to “be preached.”

Not just “repentance” but also “remission of sins.”

The whole message of repentance includes remission of sins (Luke 24:47). Are we preaching the whole or half the Gospel message Jesus commanded us to preach? See Acts 20:20, 27, 32.

Of necessity, the kingdom of Christ, “among all nations,” all peoples, must be preached and that Gospel begins with “repentance and remission of sins.”

“And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” Matthew 24:14

WHAT Gospel is to be preached by Christ’s disciples? – “this gospel of the kingdom.” And what must be preached as a necessity to enter Christ’s kingdom? Let us ascertain such.

God is unchanging. He gave us His Great Commission command to accomplish. Many are distracted and wasting their lives and resources on that which is not the Great Commission command Christ gave us and expects us to be fulfilling.

“I have set thee for a tower and a fortress among my people, that thou mayest know (discern) and try (test) their way.” Jeremiah 6:27

Today we have a less than neutered version of Christ’s Great Commission command…. It’s not even a faint resemblance of what Christ mandated. This is clearly the fulfillment of the great falling away from the faith of the Gospel foretold in Scripture. Jude 3

PREACHING and TEACHING the Gospel of repentance is the ONLY way men can be free from sin, cleansed, washed, and refreshed (Acts 3:19). REPENTANCE always precedes REFRESHING.

“REPENT ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of REFFRESHING shall come from the presence of the Lord;” Acts 3:19

By definition the band aid preaching of today has never dealt with the root of the issue and that means the issue will never go away. Nothing less than repentance from God’s people and obedience to his Great Commission command is going to change this nation.

Self-righteously screaming at people is not what we see Christ or His apostles and earliest followers doing. Such is ungodly. Yet in conversation, in any communication about Christ’s kingdom, the law to convict of sin and the divine call to repent should be included, along with believing on the LORD Jesus Christ (Acts 2:38; 3:19; 16:30-31; 20:21; Galatians 3:24; 1 Timothy 1:7-10; Revelation 22:17, etc.).

God’s people are being called to be obedient to His Great Commission command. Jesus and His holy apostles never went around, set up clinics, and answered questions. They simply obeyed the Lord and preached His Gospel so that people could be saved into this Kingdom… His Father’s business.

BREAKING: THIS here is all that matters saints…… Jesus is coming and wants to be glorified in forgiving all sin and changing lives….

“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 the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.” Luke 19:10

Kingdom news is the only Good News and everything else is going to hell. Are you behind the KING and His work He sent us to do – so that He can forgive all sin and change lives?

This dear brother has been asking us lift him in pray for a while now. Thank God and that you answered that call to lift our brother in prayer. We all know that only God Himself can break us and separate us to Himself, away from the sin that otherwise has a death grip on our lives. Here’s what our dear brother sent this morning:

“Praise report…The Holy Spirit broke me down…and for the 1st time in 42 years I’ve left nothing on the back burner, I’ve left nothing in reserve … it’s not Jesus and…it’s not Jesus but…. No, it’s just Jesus … that cross of my salvation. I’m free indeed!

Thank you brother! I’m truly being made free for the first time… I’ve wasted years holding on to temporary sin…. but no more! The Holy Spirit has been flowing, even today at work! Thanks again brother …. pray for my strength and endurance. I preached it yesterday and people gave up drugs and all sin afterwards (they came to real repentance). Jesus has been so good to me! I can never thank Him enough for his life…” Chris

“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, 19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.” Luke 4:18-19

The Betrayal

This generation of “preachers” has betrayed God and their fellow man. They will set up gathering to answer questions but unlike Paul on Marrs Hill, refuse to preach repentance. And, the professing “Christian” church today loves it. Think about it…. for example, Turning Point USA has over 270,000 monthly supporters and aren’t even preaching the Word of God. That means no one is getting saved or even convicted of their sins. THAT is not the Great Commission Jesus mandated that His people fulfill. Teaching and preaching His Word and preaching repentance sums up our LORD’s Great Commission command to us – and for which He is holding us 100% fully accountable. See Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-20; Luke 24:47.

Jesus died for our sins, for the sins of the world so that repentance could be preached and souls be saved into His eternal kingdom family. He commanded that repentance be preached. No one can or will do this except His own people. And, He gave “the promise of the Father” to His people to empower them in this mission – the baptism with the Holy Ghost (Luke 24:49; Acts 1:8). Read this closely:

“And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: 47 And THAT REPENTANCE AND REMISSION OF SINS SHOULD BE PREACHED in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. 48 And ye are witnesses of these things. 49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.” Luke 24:46-49

The professing “church” in America wants to restore America – so they can go back to living their lukewarm hell bound lives in peace (Revelation 2:4-5; 3:15-16). They don’t want to repent and do things God’s way. Beware of the prevalent false gospel which is any varation from the original Gospel given us by our LORD on the pages of His Holy Word (Galatians 1:10). We are to earnestly contend against this grace-perverting false gospel and the “ungodly men” who peddle it.

“Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. 4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.” Jude 3-4

NOTHING good happens until we get honest and repent. “Times of refreshing from the presence of the LORD” come only to those who repent (Acts 3:19). They are the only happy people on this earth and will forever enjoy the splendor of eternal glory with their soon coming KING (Revelation 21). Boom Jesus!

Though nearly never heard in today’s apostate modern church world, according to Christ’s unchanging original Gospel, repentance is an absolute necessity.

Karen Cochran observes:

“It doesn’t seem the word repent is part of Christians vocabulary!! In th emodern church, it’s all about God accepting you the way you are without any requirements to repent and die to self.”

LOTS of miserable people in this fallen world. Why? Read the paragraph above again (Proverbs 13:15; Revelation 3:15-16). Remember what Jesus says to the lukewarm?

“Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and MISERABLE, and poor, and blind, and naked:” Revelation 3:17

Letting the truth be known.

People cannot be forgiven of their sins, set free, refreshed, blessed, etc., until they repent and so “how shall they hear without a preacher?” See Romans 10:14. How shall those living in sin hear the message of Gospel, to repent, unless the true body of Christ communicates this message?

Anyone not preaching sin and repentance is not preaching the original Gospel but rather is walking in “another gospel” (Galatians 1:6-9).

Preaching the essential of repentance eliminates easy believism. Anyone preaching a “salvation” without the necessity of real repentance that brings forth fruit, clear proof of that repentance, is preaching a false gospel (Matthew 3:7-10).

WE’VE helped no one till we have delivered God’s Word to them and they repent.

“I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.” Luke 13:3

No true disciple of Jesus should ever lay his head down to rest after a day wherein he hasn’t plundered the gates of hell by the declaration of the original Gospel of Jesus which begins with the non-negotiable divine command to “repent” (Matthew 3:2; 4:17; Acts 2:38; 3:19; 20:21, etc.).

WHAT to preach?

— Repent (Matthew 3:2; 4:17; Acts 2:38; 3:19; 20:21, etc.).
— Receive Christ (John 1:12).

“Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, REPENTANCE TOWARD GOD, AND FAITH TOWARD OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.” Acts 20:21

Were we saved by our own merit or good works? No.

“Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; 6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; 7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.” Titus 3:5-7

“How beautiful that He canceled our debt. How merciful and Holy!” Susan Harrison

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9

“We were the guilty ones! And God’s justice says we deserve punishment! But in God’s infinite love for us Jesus died and paid the price for us! Jesus Christ was our only hope for us to be reconciled back to the Father! The plan for our salvation was established! Alleluia!” Karen Cochran

Fresh Repentance

May God bless each of us to come to fresh repentance and remission of our sins:

“Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.” Hosea 10:12

“O Israel, return unto the LORD thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity. 2 Take with you words, and turn to the LORD: say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips.” Hosea 14:1-2

“Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.” Ezekiel 18:30

“But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. 9 Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. 10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.” James 4:6-10

PRAYER: Father in Heaven, I come to You in the name of Jesus Christ, admitting I have been living for my own evil glory. I am a sinner. I’ve committed the sin of idolatry, having myself first instead of You. I admit here and now before You that I have been committing the damning sin of spiritual adultery. I have claimed to know You and yet refused to uncompromisingly adhere to Your Word. Here and now, right now if never before, I repent and ask You to forgive my sins and to wash me afresh from my sins in the precious blood of Jesus Christ my LORD. Into Your hands I commend, I submit my spirit, my life, right this moment and ask You dear LORD to fill me with Your Holy Ghost and use me to preach Your glorious message of repentance to those around me so that they can receive the forgiveness of all their sins and walk in the times of refreshing from Your holy presence dear LORD. I love You Jesus. I am all Yours and I know You are all mine. In Jesus’ Name amen.

Christ's Great Commission is Central to the Original Gospel [podcast]

“Adulterous” vs Grace Abounding! – the Tale of 2 Kingdoms Jesus told us that we live in “an adulterous and sinful generation” and yet “where sin abounded, grace did much more abound” (Matthew 12:39; Romans 5:20). Among Christ’s people alive on His earth today in these final days, there is seemingly an increasing attention being placed on the work of the Gospel. Jesus instructs that we pray to the Father to send out His labourers into the great harvest: “And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall […]

The Goal of Grace [podcast]

Reckoning with the Depravity of the Old Man “But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.” Galatians 6:14 Rightly assessing what the Bible informs us of concerning the old man is essential. Nothing good exists in us except Christ Himself, His perfect righteousness! “For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. … 24 O […]

Mission of Mercy in Mexico

Upon seeing this woman in this condition, stationed at a busy passage way in the market, I fetched her some good food and a cold delicious fruit drink. Upon returning to her and sitting down with her, facing her, the Word of our God in Spanish was spoken to this dear woman. Among many other things, as usual, Jesus Christ was preached to her – as the only way to God. Relationship not religion. No Mary. No pope. No catholic church (John 14:6; 1 Timothy 2:5).

Mission Mexico Part 29

Dios ama al pueblo de México. English: God loves the people of Mexico.

May God bless the glorious, bless-ed nation and people of Mexico, en El nombre de JesuCristo!!!!

And may the people of Mexico give God the glory be honoring the Son of God who is Jesus Christ – who died, was buried, and raised again from the dead for our justification! (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) Repent and believe the Gospel! (Acts 20:21)

Here in Mexico, over 5,000 Jesus tracts have been distributed with the spoken Word in Spanish.

JESUS CHRIST IS MINISTERING TO AND SAVING SOULS!!!!

Because you care, this beloved woman received ministry in the form of a warm delicious hot meal and cold water and JESUS tract, etc. And and so did the 3 young men whom I hired to feed her just what she wanted. They were all ministered to, extensively with the spoken Word and JESUS tracts. And they were each instructed to go home and repent and receive Jesus.

DEVELOPING BY WAY OF THE LORD. As you know, our God is so very good! (Psalm 86)

Remember this?

UPDATE: I went to see beloved Luis who received extensive ministry last week. Soon as he saw me he said “Put God first brother!” I said amen yes sir. He’s been reading the Bible verses Manuel and I are sending him. He told me that he saw Denzel Washington say “Put God first is all things!” That obviously hit home in Luis’ heart and it’s God’s truth (Matthew 6:33). Beware we parted he pointed at me with a big smile and said “Put God first!” Your prayers for Luis invited saints. Jesus is able! – “Ask and ye shall receive.” Matthew 7:7

As God would have it, kingdom connections.

“That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ; ” Colossians 2:2

YESTERDAY: Manuel asked me to come have breakfast with him at his resuarant (that he and his wife own). The food was amazing. Gabriela came over to talk to us and we then realized that her and I had fellowshipped at one of the restuarants she manages. Manuel and Gabriela are friends and they fellowship often as she comes to eat at his restuarant. Our LORD put it on Manuel’s heart to fellowship yesterday and to see if we can work together – by putting his name and phone number on the back of the JESUS tracts that are being passed out here. 5,000 so far. More going out daily. Having Manuel’s contact information on the tracts will help people who can connect with him for further ministry, salvation, growing in Christ, etc.

Manuel told me that he is interested in us working together by putting his information on the back of the JESUS tracts so that the Spanish speaking Mexican people who receive these Gospel tracts can contact him to be saved or for fellowship if they are already saved. This will be amazing as there are so many hungry people here in Mexico. They are delighted to receive the love of God in the form of the spoken Word and the JESUS tract in Spanish.

Manuel is now connected with brother Vicente. Both of them have restaurants. Manuel is setting up a fellowship meeting with Vicente and myself…. also to work together with the influx of so many new people being evangelized. Both these men are part of local fellowships.

If you wish to help see the continuation of this ministry outreach to the people of Mexico, feel free to participate by supplying ……. Your prayers are being heard and answered by our LORD – for the fruitfulness and furtherance of this Gospel Mission to the beautiful people of Mexico who are overwhelmingly receptive to the Gospel of our LORD Jesus Christ. Please pray. Thank you. “God is able …”

“Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,” Ephesians 3:20

Thanks for declaring with your prayer and support that the beloved souls of the Mexican people matter!!!! – because they do! Jesus is King and He’s coming saints!

Ministry books continue to go out weekly to the incarcerated. Sending the Divine Light into “The Prison House” [podcast]

TODAY as I handed a Spanish language JESUS tract to one Mexican man and spoke God’s Word to him, another bless-ed man nearby looked at me with a “Please don’t leave me out” expression. This happens often. Of course he also received God’s Word in spoken and printed form. The hunger for God is beyond refreshing!

Jesus is King. | Mission Mexico

“And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” Matthew 24:14

Are you asking the LORD, like Isaiah, to prepare and send you? Jesus says “Go.”

See Isaiah 6 and Romans 10:14-15.

You have been lifting Julio in prayer. The LORD is answering those prayers. Julio and I have been communicating today and Vicente, a dear and strong brother in Christ, is taking over to help Julio with getting saved, prayer, and godly fellowship!!!! Several relationships are transpiring this way which is amazing since these men all speak the beautiful language of Spanish. Amen.

From Julio just now:

“I would like to ask you to pray for me, for my children, for my family, for my marriage, for my finances, and of course, that God gives me the wisdom to learn His word. Perfect, I’d be delighted to hear from Vicente. We’re actually looking for someone to support us. Thank you so much, Todd.” Julio

Saints, God is hearing the prayers of His saints in the name of Jesus Christ our LORD! (John 14:13-14)

There are at least 2 strong, Holy Ghost filled Mexican men of God’s Word who are now helping with the people who are being evangelized. They are both members of Bible believing fellowships.

The 3 Ways God’s People Participate in Christ’s Great Commission

1. Praying for Christ’s labourers (Matthew 9:35-38).

2. Witnessing, evangelizing, sowing and communicating the Word to the lost (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15; Luke 8:11).

3. Supporting, supplying those of God’s people who are doing His Great Commission, preaching the Word (Matthew 6:19-21; 2 Corinthians 9:6-11; Philippians 2:25; 4:16-20).

PWS = Praying. Witnessing. Supporting.

Your prayers for these beloved people are being heard by our LORD. Col. 4:12 covers it all !!!! Here and now, YOU are being invited to pray. John 14:13-14

Cesar was given a JESUS tract and had the Word of God spoken to him. As he was listening to the Gospel his eyes welled up with tears. He was invited to repent and receive Jesus which he immediately desired and agreed to do. Cesar prayed in repentance and faith – confessing himself to have sinned against God and receiving Jesus as his LORD and Savior.

Jesus is saving souls saints. That’s why He came!

“For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.” Luke 19:10

Please lift our new brother in Christ in prayer. Col 4:12; Ps 138:8

The LORD and Savior of Mission Mexico is Alive and Well

God commands men who are called to “preach the word” and to also “do the WORK of an evangelist.” 2 Timothy 4:2-5

UPDATE: Brothers Justin and Daniel are growing in our LORD’s grace 2 Peter 3:18 Thank you that you have and will continue to lift them in prayer. God is so good. Fruit that remains saint, amen! John 15:16

“Such amazing testimonials of what the Lord is doing in the humble people of Mexico! And also seems the Lord is bringing laborers into the harvest. Hallelujah.” Karen Cochran

Angry Street Preacher Warning

“Ye Know not what Manner of spirit ye are of” [podcast]

“God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.” Psalms 7:11

3 Things to behold in this verse:

1. “GOD judgeth the righteous,”
2. “and God is angry with the wicked every day.”

Read the verse above again and note that GOD didn’t tell you to be angry with the wicked.

The LORD alone is “Holy, holy, holy” and I am not, neither is any mere man (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8).

“For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.” James 1:20

Memorize this verse of truth.

God is “THE JUDGE” not you.

“But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.” Psalms 75:7

The LORD is judging, weighing in the balance the disposition of His people toward the wicked for whom Jesus died.

Some of Jesus’ own 12, sought self-elevation via ministry…..

“Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest. 47 And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child, and set him by him, 48 And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great.” Luke 9:46-48

In the very next chapter, after His disciples had returned…

The Return of the Seventy-Two

“And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name. 18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. 19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.” Luke 10:17-20

We are Christ’s humble servants. We are not the Judge. He is.

“Then came to him the mother of Zebedee’s children with her sons, worshipping him, and desiring a certain thing of him. 21 And he said unto her, What wilt thou? She saith unto him, Grant that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on the left, in thy kingdom. 22 But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They say unto him, We are able. 23And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father.

24 And when the ten heard it, they were moved with indignation against the two brethren. 25 But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them. 26 But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; 27 and whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: 28 even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.” Matthew 20:20-28

“But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. 9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. 10 Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ. 11 But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. 12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.” Matthew 23:8-12

Evangelism Prep

“They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. 6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.” Psalms 126:5-6

Those who go forth planting the seed of the Word God with humble concern for those they minister to, will reap great rewards, “sheaves” which means harvest, now and eternally. They are humble servants of the LORD who were “moved with compassion” toward lost souls.

“And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be received up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem, 52 And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him. 53 And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem. 54 And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did? 55 But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of. 56 For the Son of man is not come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.” Luke 9:51-56

Let’s peer into what things looked like when Jesus went to the streets to meet the people. Let’s comprehend how His disposition was and the actions of the Son of God.

“And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. 36 But when he saw the multitudes, HE WAS MOVED WITH COMPASSION ON THEM, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. 37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; 38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.” Matthew 9:35-38

Jesus was “moved with compassion” on the people. Sadly, today we have some street preachers who are moved with hatred toward the lost. John Wesley (1703 – 1791) also dealt with angry street preachers.

Paul and John Wesley and we today have these angry, hate-filled lost soul street preachers to deal with. And we have those who are “moved with compassion” to reach the lost with our LORD’s bless-ed Gospel and the way He approached sinners (Matthew 9:35-38).

“The greatest contenders for (the faith) are some of the proudest (pride-filled) and most uncharitable (hateful) men; but many of the firmest contenders for it (the faith) are eminently meek and lowly in heart; and, indeed, in all other respects also, (they are) truth followers of their lamb-like Lord.” John Wesley

“So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. 12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.” Isaiah 55:11-12

“Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. 5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:” Philippians 2:3-5

God bless the true loving, God fearing preachers on the streets.

“But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel; 13 so that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places; 14 and many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear. 15 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will: 16 the one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: 17 but the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.” Philippians 1:12-18

Beware of the nasty street preachers.

“They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. 6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.” Psalms 126:5-6 “The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.” Psalms 34:18 “The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.” Psalms 51:17 “Blessed are the poor in spirit (desperate for God): for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5:3 “Blessed are they that mourn: […]

Stop Your Protest and Start Preaching!

Am I missing something? LET’S STOP COMPLAINING AND START CONTRIBUTING AND COMMUNICATING! SHALL WE SHUT UP AND SERVE? FEELING DEPRIVED? TODAY’S OUR DAY TO REPENT ON OUR FACE BEFORE A HOLY GOD WHO WILL THEN GIVE US A THANKFUL HEART! GOD didn’t send us to marvel at all the increasing darkness of this world. No, in fact, He warned us it would be this way and yet, commanded that we “Preach the gospel to every creature” as we eagerly await His soon return (Mark 16:15-20). Why curse the darkness when we can obey Jesus by shining His light into the […]

21 Characteristics of Pharisees [podcast]

Jesus taught by deduction: Learning by deduction …. How NOT to be! Read Matthew 23 and learn how NOT to be! Matthew 23 records the most violent divine rebuke of what God hates. It’s the longest most detailed, thorough reprimand of religious hypocrisy in existence. Matthew 23 is a divine clinic of Heaven’s distaste for external religiosity and not humble serving from a pure heart (Matthew 5:3, 8; 1 Timothy 1:5, etc.). And what do our hearts need to be cleaned of and established in? In summation, what was the sin of the Pharisees, these most vile hypocrites lambasted by […]

"Be ye angry, and sin not" WHAT Does that Really Mean? [podcast]

“Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: 27 Neither give place to the devil.” Ephesians 4:26 What does that really mean? “Be ye angry, and sin not,…. There is anger which is not sinful; for anger is found in God himself, in Jesus Christ, in the holy angels, and in God’s people; and a man may be said to be angry and not sin, when his anger arises from a true zeal for God and religion; when it is kindled not against persons, but sins; when a man is displeased with his own […]

Christ Jesus "Gave Himself a RANSOM for All" [podcast]

“The church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.” “Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.” Acts 20:28 Christ Jesus “gave himself a RANSOM for all.” “Ransom” refers to a redemption price. “Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a RANSOM for many.” Matthew 20:28 “Who gave himself a RANSOM for all, to be testified in due […]
