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

What does God’s Word instruct us to to do with those who reject the Word, the truth of God? Does the Bible give instructions about this? Yes. Specific.

How long should Christ’s disciples today haggle with those who are adversarial to the Gospel?

Recently the poisonous teaching of a certain lady who was on my friends list caught my eye. She was peddling Satan’s first lie with impunity. She was sharply rebuked and shut down, rejected, blocked. Why you might ask? What did the LORD instruct us to do concerning those bearing witness against Him?

THOSE who love themselves and mere men more than Jesus, will crassly ignore His command to stop feeding into, cease giving your participation with, stop entertaining the company of snakes, wolves, dogs, and swine.

“Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.” Matthew 7:6

“Rebuke them (false teachers) sharply”

“For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: 11 Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre’s sake. 12 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies. 13 This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;” Titus 1:10-13

Such who refuse to obey Jesus’ command to reject unrepentant wolves, give their endorsement to, aid and abet liars, false teachers, bidding them Godspeed and thereby being a co-conspirator with them against the Almighty. They will be judged with the false teachers who are all going to hell (2 Peter 2:1-3).

“If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: 11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.” 2 John 10-11

“A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject; 11 Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.” Titus 3:10-11

“For MANY deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. 8 Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward. 9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: 11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.” 2 John 7-11

“People who seemed solid in the Word have now fallen for these false prophets peddling their lies. They also bid them God speed by sharing their quotes. 2 John 11. When given this scripture they say well I just like this quote. When you do that you are partaking in their evil deeds. God will punish people for this! But many will not listen. They think it is an innocent thing to share quotes from some of these heretics. But God takes it seriously! Only the ‘Little flock’ will follow to the end of their lives! As many are falling away. 2 Thess 2: 3. ! They have now become enemies of Jesus! Because they are aligning themselves with this false prophet instead of aligning with Christ! It is not an innocent thing!! I pray if I share anything that is from one of these heretics that someone would please let me know! I never want to be a partaker in their sins and especially do not want to ever be an enemy of Jesus. These people get mad when you try and give them the truth. It’s pride! Those who ‘bid God speed’ to false teachers will be judged into hell with them (v11). It were as if they’ve join themselves to the enemies of the LORD and are thereby betrayed the Most High. They have made themselves therefore also the enemy of Christ. Think about a close friend you might have. What if that close friend went and join forces with a person who has slandered you and become a sworn enemy of yours. How would that make you feel? Now, do we begin to see that God is just in judging those who betray Him by helping HIS enemies deceive the eternal souls for whom Christ died? Your post also speaks of who God is coming back for! – Only those without Spot or wrinkle. I am realizing how many justify sin and believe oh well I sin everyday it’s okay. Or ‘I am only human so I sin.’ So what? That is an excuse to live in the flesh and continue to sin. So many I see lately make excuses for sin – instead of truly repenting, laying down their life in this world, being crucified with Christ and overcoming it.” Karen Cochran

Communicating to others that “God … commandeth all men every where to repent” doesn’t have to be and shouldn’t be with contempt or “the wrath of man” which “worketh not the righteousness of God.” (Acts 17:30; James 1:20) Remember, not part of the original Gospel message is ours – we are simply messengers of it (1 Corinthians 3:6-9).

The most godly thing we can do with false teachers, wolves in sheep’s clothing, is “rebuke them sharply.” If you don’t see that, repent, get over yourself. Lay down your life in this world, deny self, take up the cross, and follow Jesus for real (Luke 9:23-24; 14:33; 17:33; 19:27). We are at war.

Speaking specifically about false teachers, Scripture mandates:

“Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;” Titus 1:13

What’s better than “secret love” – love not expressed, not spoken forth?

“Open rebuke is better than secret love. 6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.” Proverbs 27:5-6

Spineless people, made cowards by their own choice to live in sin, get upset when truth is spoken straight.

“Compassion is for the injured or lost sheep; (Matt. 15:32) the rod of correction is for the back of fools. (wolves-Prov. 26:3)” Jon Crane

“Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers. 10 For there are MANY unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: 11 Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre’s sake. 12 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies. 13 This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith; 14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.” Titus 1:19-14

What’s the divine goal for the “MANY unruly and vain talkers and deceivers”? The answer: “that they may be sound in the faith.“ How can that happen? – when we obey God and “rebuke them SHARPLY.”

“Rebuke them sharply – Αποτομως· Cuttingly, severely; show no indulgence to persons guilty of such crimes.” Adam Clarke

One of the divine purposes for ordaining elders among His people, is to expose and shut down liars, and their lies. Here’s a wider perspective of Titus 1:

“1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God’s elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness;
2 In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;
3 But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour;
4 To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour.
5 For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee:
6 If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly.
7 For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre;
8 But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate;
9 Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.
10 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision:
11 Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre’s sake.
12 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.
13 This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;
14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.
15 Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.
16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.”

“Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.” 2 Timothy 4:2

“Preach the word”
“be instant in season, out of season”
“reprove”
“REBUKE”
“exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.”

House of Prayer - TABLE-FLIPPING SAVIOR! [podcast]

As an eternal memorial for His holiness, and His requirement for His people to be holy, the LORD Jesus cleansed the temple twice and these are book ends with great significance … Jesus says that God’s people are a praying people! Jesus and His holy apostles often rebuked and exposed false leaders and false doctrine (Matthew 23; Acts 13:10; 20:29-31; Galatians 5:11-12; 2 Timothy 4:2-4; 2 Peter 2; 2 John 7-11; Revelation 2:6, 15, etc.). Therefore we know that part of following Jesus includes doing the same. In fact, the body of Christ is mandated to do just that (Romans […]

Doctrine, Correction, Reproof, Instruction in Righteousness 2 Timothy 2:15; 3:15-17 ARE you learning sound “doctrine”? Are you being corrected by the LORD? Are you being reproved by Jesus? Are you being instructed in Christ’s “righteousness”? RED FLAG: You attend a “church” and yet aren’t searching, diligently and daily digging into, devouring, and memorizing God’s Word daily. Backslidden! Under the bless-ed weight of the true original Gospel, men are convicted, broken, and crushed to repentance! (Matthew 21:44; 1 Corinthians 1:18; 2:4; 2 Corinthians 4:20; James 4:8-10, etc.) WHEN a minister’s message is all about encouragement, prosperity in this fleeting life, […]

Gospel Action Mexico Part 39

“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

This is our sister in Christ, Maria. Will soon drop a new video on how the LORD is using her and you to reach many. Maria is now passing out 80-100 JESUS tracts daily! More on that soon. When initially meeting with her, after she was given about 50 JESUS tracts she asked for more. 24 hours later she called back and asked for more. She had passed all of them out. So she was replenished with hundreds more. Saints, this is 100 fold kingdom opportunity. Please pray for the fruitfulness and supply of this outreach, and for more support/supporters. We are Christ’s and your feet on the ground here and it’s getting out of hand is a bless-ed way! Miracles of fruitfulness via Jesus, via the Holy Ghost!

“And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.” Mark 16:20

I have encountered and ministered to this beloved woman, Maria. And now I realize why she has an eternal, a perpetual smile—as in it’s the joy of the LORD. She shared last night that she is born again and we rejoiced. Maria asked for a supply of the JESUS tracts and was given about 80-100 tracts. I gave her a stack and she asked for more after we were fellowshipping in Jesus more. Boom. This all spells kingdom momentum to the glory of the nail scarred risen Savior and LORD!

“WE are labourers TOGETHER with God”—that’s us, saints (1 Corinthians 3:9).

Saints, the supply tracts is running low and we are going to have the bless-ed opportunity to replenish the supply of JESUS tracts to brother Juan and this sister, Maria. Both of them are consistently, daily ministering God’s love and Word.

So, should we go with the $270 option which is thicker paper, better quality printing OR the $120 option with thinner paper and lesser quality ink?

Give here.

TODAY I ordered 1,000 more JESUS tracts at the cost of $120. Anyone wish to cover this opportunity? We are hoping to be able to order a larger quantity, like as in 5,000. It’s more cost effective that way and also the tracts are not flowing out to the people in a more rapid manner. | Give here.

This beloved man walked by, as God would have it, and he was given our LORD’s Word, in God’s love. He stopped and turned to me as if he could not believe he was hearing the Word of God. Tears filled his eyes. Obviously he is going through something and sin had just worn him down, severely as it has all of us (Ecclesiastes 7:20; Romans 3, 7).

“I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul.” Psalms 142:4

He continued to receive ministry, including John 8:36. A friend was near and she began interpreting and she broke down and is getting saved. She is also in awe. God is moving saints. He’s answering your prayers. The neighbor, Nayeli, was shocked at how God was touching this man Cesar. She can’t shut up. She was a Jew and is now reading John 8 tonight. She read it to Cesar and is still talking about Jesus and John 8.

“If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” John 8:44

You saints who know John 8 know exactly what’s going on! And it’s JESUS! The LORD is moving on the wings of your prayers. Both of these precious souls are shocked in a heavenly way!

“For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,” Philippians 1:19

Cesar was instructed to go home, repent, receive Jesus by faith, and receive new life in Christ. He was showed the prayer on the back panel of the JESUS tract and told to pray it to God and be forgiven, to be saved.

Please pause and lift up these two precious souls !

“Wow! I stand in awe of God whenever you share these divine encounters! And in this picture, it is obvious this man is ready to receive, as his hands are lifted up in surrender! Psalm 143:6 “I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land. Selah.” And he is obviously thirsty! Praying for them all to harken unto Jesus who is the only One who can save their souls from death! So they can experience His freedom from the bondage of sin! And become servants of righteousness. Earnestly, and tenderly Jesus is calling!” Karen Cochran | Mission Mexico

Is Karma Biblical? [podcast]

The Karma Concept is a Diabolical Con Job and a counterfeit for God’s system of sowing and reaping: No disciple of Jesus should ever use the word/term “karma” unless exposing it for the lie that it is.

First off, the concept of karma is antichrist in that it teaches that people, sinners, can earn their own way into a better eternity by living good or kindly in this life. Lie.

The concept of karma is based on the lie that men will be reincarnated and that sinners, based on their own performance on earth in their first life, will be rewarded accordingly in their next life. Well the Bible teaches that mankind is hopelessly sinful and cannot forgive or save himself (Genesis 6:5,12; Isaiah 59:16; Jeremiah 17:9; Ezekiel 22:30; Romans 3:9-29; Galatians 2:21, etc.). The Word of God informs us that our next destination will be either Heaven or hell, not coming back to the earth for a new life or do-over. The Bible teaches us that “ALL have sinned” against our Maker and our eternal, irrevocable destination will be based on whether or not we receive or reject His gift of salvation granted solely on the basis of the perfect and precious blood of the Son of God who died on the cross and was raised again to take away our sins (Romans 3:21-25; 5:1-2; 6:23; 2 Corinthians 5:19-21; 1 Timothy 2:5-6; 1 Peter 1:18-19; 3:18, etc.).

The shed blood of Jesus Christ is the only payment that could have ever and did fully satisfy the claims of the Father’s justice to redeem fallen mankind back from sin.

“He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied (paid in full – “It is finished”): by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.” Isaiah 53:11

1 Peter 1

“Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; 19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: 20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, 21 Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God. 22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: 23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” 1 Peter 1:18-23

Karma is a lie.

David Taylor writes:

“Sowing and reaping: is always a true biblical principle, and for those who heap up judgement for themselves.”

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

“The curse of the Lord is in the house of the wicked: but he blesseth the habitation of the just.” Proverbs 3:33

“ALL men” have sinned against our Maker and are thereby guilty and separated from Him because He is “Holy, holy, holy” (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 8:4).

“…they are all under sin; 10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one … 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” Romans 3:9-10, 23

God’s Word declares all men to be sinners, who have all broken His holy commandments, and who will reap eternal death which is irrevocable separation from God, if they die unforgiven by God through Christ (Romans 1-6, etc.).

“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23

How have we sinned against God? To begin with, we’ve all lied and the Bible says: “Thou shalt not bear false witness.” We’ve all used the name of the LORD in vain – “Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.” We’ve all stolen something along the way – “Thou shalt not steal” (Exodus 20).

Are You a Good Person? Take this Test to See – Will God accept you into His Holy Heaven when you die?

In and of ourselves, outside of Christ, here’s what all men look like to God:

“But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.” Isaiah 64:6

In short, karma denies our need for Christ and says we can earn or merit our own way into comfort and blessings without Jesus.

“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

“Reincarnation is taught by true believers in Karma. Reincarnation is the rebirth of the soul in a new body. Depending on the religion or the particular philosophy the soul can make an appearance as another person, animal or plant as it makes its way to an eventual escape from the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth.” owlcation

The Bible term and associated definition, truth, is sowing and reaping, and not karma.

“Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. 8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.” Galatians 6:7-8

In the Hindu and Buddhist religions, karma is the concept, the teaching that depending on how a person lives their life on earth determines how they will be reincarnated in their next life. It is the idea that how you live your life, this one, will determine the quality of life you will have after reincarnation. In these false religions there is no savior and so you are earning your own way to God and His blessings. False..

“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

Salvation is the gift of God purchased by the precious blood of His only begotten Son Jesus Christ.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16

Karma is a false teaching. No born again believer should ever use this word unless they are exposing it for what it is.

Reincarnation is a lie and therefore so is karma because karma is the mythical, erroneous idea that the way you live this life will determine your plight in the next life. But the Bible says:

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

Also, what do Satan’s heresies of purgatory and karma have in common? – They both promise a second chance. But the Bible says when we die our eternal destination is final – Heaven or hell.

Judgment immediately follows death, not a second chance.

Satan wants people to think they have a second chance and not to take this one and only life seriously. The Bible tells us that immediately upon death we are judged to go to Heaven or hell (Luke 16:19-31). When we die we will stand before our Maker to be judged for our one life in this one body on the earth (Romans 14:10; 2 Corinthians 5:10; Revelation 20:11-15, etc.). There will be no second chance. We will not return as someone or something else.

“Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.” Ecclesiastes 12:7

“And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.” Matthew 25:46

“And he (thief on the cross next to Jesus) said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. 43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:42-43

The way you live this life – in Christ or out of Christ – will determine your eternal destination, as in Heaven or hell.

“The way of life is above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath.” Proverbs 15:24

World religions teach that man earns his own way to God. God’s Word teaches that all men, born after Adam, are insolvently sinful (unable to pay the debt) and in need of the saving grace of God which is exclusively found in the crucified and risen Savior, Jesus Christ.

More Verses Biblically Disproving Reincarnation:

“But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he? ¹¹As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up: ¹²so man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.” Job 14:10-12

“For he remembered that they were but flesh; a wind that passeth away, and cometh not again.” Psalm 78:39

“If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.” Job 14:14

“But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me.” 2 Samuel 12:23

“When a few years are come, then I shall go the way whence I shall not return.” Job 16:22

“As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away: so he that goeth down to the grave shall come up no more. ¹⁰He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more.” Job 7:9-10

“We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.” 2 Corinthians 5:8

“Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, ²⁹and shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.” John 5:28-29

“Such are the paths of all who forget God; the hope of the godless shall perish.” Job 8:12-13

“And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.” Daniel 12:2

“For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.” 2 Corinthians 5:10

“When a wicked man dieth, his expectation shall perish: and the hope of unjust men perisheth.” Proverbs 11:7

“For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.” 2 Corinthians 5:1

Summation: When you die, you will be immediately in Heaven or hell – in bliss or blistering, burning fire.

Reincarnation is a Fairytale: The Karma Concept is a Diabolical Con Job

What is the notion or doctrine of reincarnation? First off, anyone who believes they will have a 2nd chance to get things right, is completely deceived by the same devils who invented this fairytale of reincarnation. One site notes: “To reincarnate is, literally, to ‘incarnate again’; that is, reincarnation is a ‘rebirth’ into a new body of flesh and blood. In most contexts, reincarnation refers to the process, after death, of a soul returning in a new body. Claims of remembering a ‘past life’ imply reincarnation.” There is not one example or ounce of proof that a human returns to earth […]

Judgment to Come [podcast]

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, […]

The Importance of Pureness of Heart [podcast]

“He that loveth pureness of heart, for the grace of his lips the king shall be his friend.” Proverbs 22:11

With pureness of heart, our words shall issue forth with grace and seasoning and be more readily received by those who hear.

“Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.” Colossians 4:6

David’s Prayer

“Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.” Psalms 19:14

“Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.” Matthew 5:8

“O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. Matthew 12:34

“A Clean Heart”

“Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. 11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.” Psalms 51:10-11

When we wisely join in fellowship, life with fellow truth seekers, such will assist the work of God who is quickening us to honestly admit, repent afresh and confess any sin God brings to light. Anyone else ever camped out on Psalms 51—the prayer of repentance and confession of the man after God’s own heart, David?

“Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. 13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.” Psalms 51:12-13

The New Testament believer is to ever examine himself to see whether or not he is in the faith.

“Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?” 2 Corinthians 13:5

“If”

“But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.” Deuteronomy 4:29

Prayer: Father, in Jesus’ name, here and now if never before, I submit my life to You—to Your Lordship. From this moment forth I will serve You. Jesus You are the Master of my life from now on. I love You Jesus. Please use me for Your glory. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

"He that Loveth Pureness of Heart" [podcast]
