Only the Truth Can Make Us Free [podcast]

“I needed to listen to this podcast today. Thank you. What A W. Tozer said was powerful. The last year in a half God has broken me very deeply. I haven’t understood it all but I have had to give up things in me I have hung onto. I am only lately seeing through the process how he has changed me and is making me more like Jesus! And I can now thank him for the pain. God’s goodness to me!” Karen

“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: 20 That thou mayest love the LORD thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.” Deuteronomy 30:19-20

Who puts men in bondage? Who makes men free? (John 10:10) WHO WILL YOU SERVE? WHO WILL YOU REJECT? There’s no neutral ground. Jesus says “He that is not with me is against me” (Matthew 12:30).

God gives all men the choice. Each man must choose – either Satan or Jesus.

Satan is the great liar, false accuser, usurper, blinder, murderer, devourer, deceiver, destroyer, and enslaver (Isaiah 14:12-15; John 8:44; 10:10a; 2 Corinthians 4:4; 1 Peter 5:8; Revelation 12:10, etc.). Jesus Christ is the Great Shepherd, Creator, Redeemer, and Liberator who gave His life for His people and exclusively gives them life “more abundantly” here and eternally.

“The thief (Satan) cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” John 10:10

The work of SATAN is seen in these three operations – and everywhere you find them. Any person involved in stealing, killing, and/or destroying, in any fashion, is a child of Satan, period.

Obeying God’s Word Alone Makes One Free John (8:31-32, 36). Only those who adhere to His truth experience the liberty, freedom, and the blessings of God.

The truth makes no one free until they repent and obey it (John 8:31-32). If the truth isn’t making you free from sin, it can only be because you are not in the truth and obeying it.

IF the truth isn’t making you free from sin, you are not in the truth and are hell bound!

“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. … If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” John 8:31-32, 36 

SEEING a lot of the devil’s agents in our midst? JUST READ GOD’S WORD FOR YOURSELF as He told you to do beloved (2 Timothy 2:15).

Many if not most pastors today are quite biblically illiterate. Beware. Know God’s Word for yourself or you WILL be deceived – without exception (Isaiah 9:16; 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12; 2 Timothy 2:15). ALL who truly know and love Jesus are diligently seeking His truth, daily – with no exception. Those who are not “valiant for the truth” of God eliminate themselves from Christ’s eternal kingdom (Jeremiah 9:3). They are turned over to “strong delusion” and deceived and will be “damned” (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12).

If you are not in the truth you are not in Christ and are hell bound.

You cannot and will not be protected if you refuse to obey the truth (Proverbs 30:5; 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12).

Are you a glutton for the truth? Are you “valiant for the truth”? Jeremiah 9:3

IF you don’t authentically love the truth, aren’t humble, aren’t willing to change, you are a foolish virgin who will be shut out of Christ’s eternal kingdom! Repent now. (Matthew 18:3-4; 25:1-3)

Have you noticed that when some people don’t like biblical truth, they say “that’s not Christian”? This is due to them serving a false god they’ve made up in their own unrepentant fallen image (2 Timothy 4:2-4). So it’s “not Christian” to speak God’s Word? Explain that please… or better yet, repent, get saved for real, and get into God’s Word – allowing Him to speak for Himself. God defines Himself to us in His Word and we must let the Almighty speak for Himself if we will be His (Romans 3:3-4; 2 Timothy 3:15-17, etc.).

“The majority have been deceived so badly, even when Scripture tells us over and over again about the preachers of false doctrine! It seems that the majority just like to feel comfortable listening to their preacher once a week instead of digging deep and searching the Scriptures for truth!” S.

Un-repentant, sin-justifying compromisers want to act like we don’t have a Bible – to deny that God, the Judge, has spoken. So these children of Satan attempt to shut down the messengers of truth! Steam roll them with God’s Word and authority saints! SMH What ever we read in the Bible is from the JUDGE and if you don’t believe that, you are “not of God” according to Christ (John 8:47).

DID THE LORD lie to us about the great falling away just before His return… and the great deception perpetrated by “MANY false prophets”? See Matthew 24:3-5, 11, 24; 2 Thessalonians 2. Are you calling Jesus and His apostles liars?

“Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” 2 Timothy 4:2-4

Let’s get a Gospel clue saints: The soft-peddling, half-truth cowards who “man” most pulpits are nothing but weakling rebels. If they were men of God they’d fearlessly preach the whole Truth of God as He has mandated that we do! (See Acts 20:20, 27; 2 Timothy 4:24-4; Jude 3, etc.)

God is not a formula. Either you walk with Him on His terms or the fruit of your life will be unrest, not love, joy, or peace. Beware of those who don’t teach the whole original Gospel with the divinely given conditions. Jesus says that a man must repent and abide in Him, taking up the cross daily (Luke 9:23-24; John 14:21-23; 15, etc.).

Who did God tell us shows forth His righteousness in this dark world? “He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit” (Proverbs 12:17).

Telling, speaking the truth ISSSS love ! (Proverbs 27:5-6; Ephesians 4:15) If hearing the truth is what makes men free, how shall they be forgiven and free if they don’t hear the truth via Christ’s body? (John 8:31-31, 36; Romans 10:14, 17)

Brother Charles Pray writes: “I too, was once there in that dark cold place called prison! But nothing like the prison we all live in called ‘sin’ which has had many of us bound in chains spiritually. God has freed us from ALL bondage of sin when we go to the cross and receive Him in repentance as our Lord and Savior. We can read in the King James Bible in Ezra 7:26 – ‘And whosoever will not do the law of thy God, and the law of the king, let judgment be executed speedily upon him, whether it be unto death, or to banishment, or to confiscation of goods, or to imprisonment.’ We can also look at The King James Bible in Leviticus 24:12- ‘And they put him in ward, that the mind of the LORD might be shewed them.’ Here are a few Scriptures you can look up on your own and study in the King James Bible: Psalms 68: 5-6; Isaiah 61: 1-3; Matthew 25: 34-40. Always remember it is the Lord who sets the captives free. Praise the Lord for the great things He hath done and will continue to do through us as willing servants of His Word. Amen!”

No one will ever get set free till they get honest and repent. Luke 8:15; Proverbs 28:13

PRAYER: Holy Father, in Jesus’ name, please forgive my sins against You and how I’ve not sought You with my whole heart. Please break me and cause my conscience to be captive to You, to Your truth. Unite my heart to fear Thy name LORD. Please quicken according to Your Word and make me Your disciple, a man/woman of Your truth, Your Word. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Are You right with God? Making peace with God.

Victory Over the Iniquities that Currently Drive You [podcast]

  “Too many Christians blame their flesh on Satan and try casting it out. Never works. That’s why they don’t grow! Must crucify the flesh!” Karen Cochran Recently, a brother in Christ was pushing the fact that Genesis 6:5, 12 use the phrase “only evil continually” pertaining to mankind, all men. REPLY: Ask for yourself the important question: WHY did Jesus come to the earth? And from this moment forward, allow the Bible to answer that question …. Look for the Bible answer…… Why Jesus came to die for us and make us new creatures in Christ whereby OLD THINGS […]

Dominating the Devil! [podcast]

Dominating sin and satan only comes to those willing to die and be buried “with Christ.” (Romans 6; Galatians 2:20) The result is His glorious resurrection in their lives and consequent victory over sin and satan!

It’s the stated will of God that we walk in His victory – in the victory He provided through Christ. “But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” 1 Corinthians […]
