The Fear of the LORD is to Hate Evil: Pride, and Arrogancy #shorts [video]

The original Gospel prominently includes the judgment of hell coming to every person who dies in sin (Mark 9:43-49, etc.). EVERY preacher not preaching hell is a false prophet who is preaching “another gospel” and is “accursed” (Galatians 1:6-9). Jesus and His holy apostles taught it and there’s no excuse for not doing the same. Repent now.

We must understand that God is severe in His judgment of rebels of which there are “many” who claim they are saved. Eternal damnation awaits all rebels (Matthew 7:13-23, etc.).

“Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.” Romans 11:22

DIVINE JUDGMENT, THE “SEVERITY OF GOD” IS NOT GOING AWAY JUST BECAUSE YOU OR SOME FAKE PREACHER IGNORES IT!

For those in Christ, God gives all the grace needed, and more, to overcome all sin and be ready for the soon return of Christ for His spotless bride (Ephesians 5:25-27).

“For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, 12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; 13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; 14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.” Titus 2:11-14

Once, I had a “pastor” who rebuked me for using too many severe SCRIPTURES – yes BIBLE verses! Why? Well it’s because he was doing what the Bible says the devil’s false teachers do – tickle ears, accommodate sin, coddle lukewarm counterfeits and backsliders (2 Timothy 4:2-4; Isaiah 30:9-10, etc.).

True Disciples of Jesus Preach “Judgment to Come”

“Judgment to come” is an essential part of the original Gospel! Are you preaching it? Watch what Paul preached:

“And as he reasoned of righteousness, temperance, and JUDGMENT TO COME, Felix trembled, and answered, Go thy way for this time; when I have a convenient season, I will call for thee.” Acts 24:25

“I started trying to live with the judgment in view …not so that I live in fear, but that I have fewer, regrets hopefully.” J.

In the apostate modern church world, scarcely do we ever hear the warning of “judgment to come” (Acts 24:25). You can know that you are sitting under an antichrist wolf when you never or seldom hear the warning of “judgment to come” (Acts 24:25). Such a man could care less about your eternal soul but rather is only playing you for his own self-serving purposes to build his own ministry business/empire. Run!

Love protects therefore love warns (Jude 3; Philippians 1:17; 2 Corinthians 5:11).

Judgment Day is on the way!

Examples of Divine Judgment which are Designed to Instill the Healthy Fear of God in Us!

Studying the judgments of God – past, present, and future – will quickly instill in us a holy fear of the LORD which is clean!

“Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.” 1 Corinthians 10:6

Read that verse of holy truth above once again beloved of God. WHY are these judgments written? What’s the divine “intent” or purpose?

In the New Testament canon, our LORD lists some of the judgments He allowed to fall upon His own people for their rebellion (1 Corinthians 10:1-12; Jude 1, Romans 11:19-22, etc.).

PERFECT JUSTICE IS COMING.

No one escapes. Not one.

The Bible is full of warnings from Genesis to Revelation. If you have a problem with warnings, you have a problem with God. Warning is for protection. If you don’t like warnings, you simply give away the Bible to someone who is an authentic, honest a truth seeker.

Any preacher not warning the flock constantly is a wolf.

By divine inspiration, the apostle Paul warned us of those many wolves who pretend to represent the crucified Savior and yet “they are the enemies of the cross of Christ … Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things (building their own kingdom at your expense).”

Biblical Truth to Own Today: This following verse as well as others teach us that each and every individual is personally responsible and will give full account to God for their lives in this world: “The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin” (Deuteronomy 24:16).

Here’s the passage—please read this carefully:

“(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: 19 Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.) 20 For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: 21 Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.” Philippians 3:18-21

Wolves are known by pointing you to now—to the temporal. If they spoke of eternal things, they’d direct your affections and your focus from their little church business to Christ. These antichrists in our midst do not want to do that because if they did, they’d forfeit your funds, your support and accolades.

Note that one of the six principle (foundational) doctrines of Christ is “eternal judgment”:

“Therefore leaving the principles (basic elements) of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, 2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of ETERNAL JUDGMENT.” Hebrews 6:1-2

This is more clear proof that any “preacher” not preaching “eternal judgment” is a fraud.

The LORD and His holy apostles preached us into eternity. They had a message that pointed us to the eternal and away from the temporal. This is the message of the few true messengers in this late hour.

“For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. 17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; 18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.” 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

Apostolic preaching is Christ centered and eternity based!

“If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. 3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.” Colossians 3:1-4

Jesus is coming.

Warning is for protection (Colossians 1:28; Jude 4, etc.).

Judgment is a very big deal to God.

He judged sin by His crucified Son (John 3:16-21).

“Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. 32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.” John 12:31-32

Today’s “pastors” are never heard calling men to repentance! This alone reveals they are totally false! Satan’s seminaries and fake news “bibles” have removed this essential command and word to “repent.”

Jesus Christ was lifted up on that cross and died for the sins of the whole world—for your sins. Now, in this late hour, the LORD is by His Holy Spirit drawing all men to Himself—to repent, be saved, and remain in an intimate, abiding relationship with Himself.

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. ²⁹ Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. ³⁰ For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30

“And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.” Revelation 22:17

What some fail to see in their own blindness, which has come through spiritual adultery and idolatry, is that judgment is from God and not mere man. “Judgment” appears 294 times in God’s Word. “Judgments” appears 127 times. His warnings of His coming judgments ARE HIS MERCY because He is “NOT willing that any should perish” (2 Peter 3:9). Here’s a mere sampling:

“But the LORD shall endure for ever: he hath prepared his throne for judgment. 8 And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness. … The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.” Psalms 9:7-8, 16

“And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent (in preparation of judgment): ³¹Because 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

Jesus Christ is “that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.” Jesus is the standard and that divine standard is perfection. Are you born again and therefore washed in His blood? If so, are you presently abiding intimately with Him today with no sin blemish on the garment of righteousness He gave you at the moment He saved you? (John 15:1-6; Ephesians 5:25-27)

ANY MAN WHO IS TELLING YOU THAT YOU ARE “ETERNALLY SECURE” AFTER BEING INITIALLY SAVED NO MATTER WHAT, IS A DIABOLICAL ANTICHRIST. RUN! JESUS AND HIS HOLY APOSTLES TAUGHT THAT AFTER BEING SAVED ONE MUST “ABIDE” (REMAIN) IN CHRIST OR PERISH IN THE FIRES OF ETERNAL DAMNATION (JOHN 15:6).

“If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.” John 15:6

So, you got saved? Good, now you must STAY saved!

Rebels hate to hear that they are accountable. They refuse to die. The counterfeit refuses to lay down his life in this fleeting world. He said a prayer, thinks he’s saved, and reacts profusely to Scripture which commands he deny self, take up the cross and truly follow Jesus.

If you believe you are “eternally secure” after being saved—no matter what—none of what you believe negates the biblical truth HE gave us. You must “endure to the end” after He saves you or you will be in hell and it will be even worse for you. It is very self-serving to believe that just because you were saved at one point in time you have a free ride. Your initial salvation experience does not exempt you from His condition of abiding in Him and living a crucified life to spend eternity in Heaven with Him.

“For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. ²¹ For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.” 2 Peter 2:20-21

Jesus teaches that one can be saved and then “fall away.” Dare you call the Son of God a liar?

“They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.” Luke 8:13

“You can stay saved if you live godly, pray, and ask forgiveness – abide in Christ to the end. Study the Word of God and obey! No such thing as eternal security, once saved, always saved. This is a damnable and dangerous message.” Sharon Compton

If you’ve truly been born again into Christ, you are personally accountable, personally responsible to live the rest of your earthly life accountable to worship, trust, and obey the LORD on His terms—to abide in and with Christ to the end (John 15:1-6; 1 Corinthians 9:27, etc.).

IF YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU ARE SAVED AND ETERNALLY SECURE NO MATTER WHAT, YOUR BELIEFS ARE NOT APOSTOLIC AT ALL. IF AFTER BEING SAVED INITIALLY, WHERE O WHERE DID JESUS OR ANY OF HIS HOLY APOSTLES EVER TEACH THAT YOU ARE UNCONDITIONALLY ETERNALLY SECURE NO MATTER WHAT? CHAPTERS AND VERSES PLEASE? NOT ONLY IS THERE NO UN-CONDITIONAL PROMISE OF “ETERNAL SECURITY,” THERE ARE NUMEROUS WARNINGS ABOUT FALLING AWAY—FORGETTING GOD AFTER BEING SAVED.

Jesus is coming back for a special people which He specifically describes as those few who are compliant in appropriating His eternal salvation:

“Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.” Ephesians 5:25-27

Salvation is conditional and not un-conditional as many a heretic teaches today.

“Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. 8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.” Revelation 19:7-8

What Church is Jesus Returning for? | Will Everyone Jesus has Saved be in Heaven?

“For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. 32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.” 1 Corinthians 11:31-32

—The fact that we have all sinned in the past is one thing…. now whether we’ve truly repented and are showing forth the fruit of authentic repentance is another thing (Psalms 51; Matthew 3:7-10).

The JUDGE has spoken in a book called THE BIBLE. He’s calling us to pay attention when we read it. His written WORD records for us HIS judgments—the judgments of the Judge. So, the lame misuse of the “judge not” scripture is a cover up from novices to justify their worship of wolves who feed their flesh nature instead of telling them God requires them to live the crucified life (Matthew 7:1-5; Philippians 3:18-19; 2 Timothy 4:2-4; 2 Peter 2:1-3; 2 John 10-11, etc.). Jesus says “Judge righteous judgment” and the only way to do that is call the shots like He does in His written Word —beginning with our own lives and out from there (John 7:24). YES GOD is the Judge and THE JUDGE HAS SPOKEN His judgments in the 66 glorious books in the canon of His Word. So there are no excuses. We shall be judged by His Word, the Bible (John 12:48; Romans 2:16; Revelation 20:10-15).

“The word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.” John 12:48

The Bible teaches that because God gave every man a conscience, creation, and the written Word of God, and most of all, His only begotten Son for them, all are “without excuse” (Romans 1:19-20; Luke 16:27-31). Judgment Day is on the way. Jesus is coming.

“How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation;” Hebrews 2:3

The JUDGE has spoken and His judgments and warnings of coming judgment are recorded in a book called the Bible. As you read His Word, be on the look-out for His loving warnings and His declarations of “judgment to come.” Christ’s apostle Paul speaks to a civil authority/ruler about “judgment to come”:

“And as he reasoned of righteousness, temperance, and judgment to come, Felix trembled, and answered, Go thy way for this time; when I have a convenient season, I will call for thee.” Acts 24:25

Paul reasoned of 3 things in his ministry to Felix as “Felix trembled”:

“righteousness”

“temperance”

“judgment to come”

Does the man you claim as your spiritual elder preach these 3 things? Read them again.

Judgment Day is on the Way

Not One shall Escape.

Each of us will stand before God to give full account of our lives in this world.

There will be two judgment seats:

The judgment of believers:

“But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. 11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. 12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.” Romans 14:10-12

2. The Great White throne judgment of those who die in sin:

“And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. 13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. 14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” Revelation 20:11-15

Finality of One’s Eternal State After Death

When men die they are judged at that moment as righteous or wicked. It’s final.

WHAT comes at the moment of “death”?

“And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this THE JUDGMENT:” Hebrews 9:27

“He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.” Revelation 22:11

“Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: … 8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.” 2 Corinthians 5:6, 8

One thing’s certain from Scripture and that is that God created hell for the devil and his angels originally and yet all men who rebel against God go there with the fallen angels (Matthew 25:41). Hell is described in vivid detail in Scripture.

PRAYER: Holy Father, in Jesus’ name, help us preach hell so hot that those separated from you can feel the flames and smell the smoke! In Jesus’ name. Amen.

WHAT’S On Jesus’ Prayer List? [podcast]

What Did Jesus Pray for His People?

John 17 – knowing Him. Being one with Him and the Father and one another.

Jesus prayed the highest priorities of the Father for His people as is recorded in John 17.

Jesus’ High Priestly Prayer – John 17

“Jesus’ prayer in John 17, often called the “High Priestly Prayer,” is a profound discourse to God before His crucifixion, focusing on His own glorification, the protection and unity of His disciples, and the future unity of all believers, emphasizing eternal life through knowing God and Christ, and asking for believers to be set apart in truth and one, just as He and the Father are one.

Having offered His precious, sinless blood to the Father for the redemption of the fallen race, Jesus Christ is now seated at the right hand of the Father making intercession for all of His saints.”

“But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. 25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. 26 For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;” Hebrews 7:24-26

Due to His perfect sacrifice and redemption of fallen mankind, we who are His, are invited to “come boldly…”

“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrews 4:14-16

As we “come boldly unto the throne of grace” the LORD is going to fill us with His grace and love.

Those most powerfully used by God to help others, are those who are set apart to Him, crying out to the LORD to be filled with His gracious Holy Spirit and to be made more and more one with Him.

Debbie Lord writes:

“GOD is our sustaining force via prayer:

The Holy Spirit praying for us from within,

Jesus, our risen Savior and High Priest praying for us at the right hand of God, Brothers and Sisters in Christ praying for us on this earth, and us praying for believers everywhere,

even those we’ve never met. Ephesians 6:18

Each member of Christ’s body should be assured of the constant prayer of other believers as well as lifting up in prayer other believers themselves.”

Memory Truth:

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

We grow in Christ’s grace to realize that our own misguided, unwarranted, self-righteous attitudes and actions of wrath on sinners, is not of God.

Pray to “grow in grace” (2 Peter 3:18). When we are growing in His grace in that abiding oneness, His ministry of grace will flow through us. It has been wisely stated that “We can never lead someone else to a place we aren’t ourselves walking in.”

“For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace…” Hebrews 13:9

WHEN we see something in God’s Word, such as the verse above, let us pray it – pray He will bring it fully into our lives.

WHO has God Used to Truly Minister to Us?

Did God use vessels of self-righteous wrath?

Or, has the LORD used crucified vessels who were full of His love?

Can we not reflect back on how God used others to minister to us? Who did He use? It wasn’t the harsh self-righteous ones He used but rather the vessels of His love – who when they spoke His truth, did it out of His concern and desire for us to truly come to Him… right?

There is so much evil in this fallen world. We are bombarded with words, attitudes, and images daily with the iniquity of fallen mankind. That will not change till Jesus returns. For now, we must abide in Christ, to seek Him to make us one with Him and the Father who are one in agreement, unison, etc. It’s only in being made one with the Father and Jesus that God’s love will fill and flow from us. May God settle us at His feet, truly.

YOUR PRAYER: Holy Father in Heaven, I come to You in the name of my LORD Jesus Christ. Please teach me Your ways and make me, and Your body, one with You. In Jesus’ holy Name, amen.

Pouring prayerfully over the prayer of our LORD Jesus recorded in John 17 would greatly benefit us saints.

John 17: Jesus’ Prayer, the Real “LORD’s Prayer”

The High Priestly Prayer of Our Savior: Beholding the Highest Divine Priorities in the Prayer of Jesus

“1 These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:

2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.

3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.

5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

6 I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.

7 Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.

8 For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.

9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.

10 And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.

11 And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

13 And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.

14 I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.

16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

18 As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.

19 And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.

20 Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;

21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.

22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:

23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

24 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

25 O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.

26 And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.”

The Gospel key to walking in God’s love is the cross. The Bible teaches us that “God is love” and it’s only the crucified vessel that will be full of God’s love and used effectively by the LORD.

“And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.” 1 John 4:16-18

All ungodly fear is cast out when we are full of the love of God. Being full of the love of God requires that we seek His face and become one with him (John 17). Fear is ejected when God’s love permeates our hearts via fellowship with Him (1 John 4:16-18).

Ministry from Heaven can only come out of a crucified vessel.

“Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. 11 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. 12 So then death worketh in us, but life in you.” 2 Corinthians 4:10-12

Love is at the top of the divine list of priorities and can only come out of the oneness our Father desires us to have with Him (1 Corinthians 13). Are we asking Him to be made one with Him? (See John 17.)

“Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.” 1 John 4:7-8

Sister Debbie Lord offers us the opportunity to pray this Scriptural prayer: “Lord, I pray for your saints world over, that You would draw us closer and closer (increasingly) to Yourself as time grows short. Please help us give up and let go so that You can live in us fully and minister to us, in us and THROUGH us. I ask this in Jesus’ Name. Amen.”
