Stone Casting Qualifications
Jesus never called the woman taken in adultery (John 8) or the woman who had had 5 husbands and was now living with another man, a whore (John 4). Jesus was not harsh with either of them. What does this say for some of these hate-mongering, arrogant, pharisaical, enraged, embattled, need-to-get-saved street preachers so prevalent today who openly call scantily clad women whores instead of winning them as Jesus did? Perhaps it’s the lust in their own hearts driving them? (Romans 2:1-3) We never see Christ needlessly provoking, condemning, screaming at, or yelling at lost sinners. WHERE did Jesus or any of His apostles possess such a hate-filled attitude other than when Jesus rebuked them in their younger years for seeking to call down fire from Heaven? Christ rebuked them with “Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.” (Luke 9:54-55)
Have you paid close attention to whom Jesus harshly rebuked? As you read the Gospels, notice that the rich and the religious (self-righteous) were who Christ rebuked (Matthew 23, etc.).
To the Pharisees of His day, Christ said:
“He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.” John 8:7
Do YOU qualify to cast a stone?
To the woman freshly taken from an adulterous, sinful activity and to all who are sincerely repentant today, Jesus says:
“Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? 11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.” John 8:10-11
Notice that FIRST came forgiveness/salvation, then came the command to live holy – “Go, and sin no more.” In this Jesus was not saying “Don’t you EVER sin again.” No, He was informing her that she had no need to ever sin again. 1 John 1:9 was later written. Lamentations 3:22-23 never went away and neither did Psalms 103:10-12 and all the other glorious promises of God to those who fall.
And there were many “whoremongers” there that Jesus exposed and convicted of their own sins (Jn. 8:9-11; Rev. 21:8, 27). Those were the un-repentant stone-casting religious devils Jesus sent away with their tails between their legs – un-forgiven.
What about Christ’s words to the self-righteous religionists in Matthew 21:31- “Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.” This means that rank sinners and “harlots” (prostitutes, adulterous people) will go to Heaven before the self-righteous, condemning religionists.
So you have found out that a brother or sister sinned? Okay, so what if we find out what sins you committed? … “And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.” 1 Peter 4:8
We have ALL been spiritual whores or committed spiritual adultery having alienated the affections of our hearts away from our LORD and “first love” (Rev. 2:4-5) … “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.”(Exod. 20:3) …. At once we should drop the stones of condemnation, realizing our own great and PRESENT need for the mercy of God, and reach out to restore others. The LORD will then be able to use us but not before. In fact, we are heaping condemnation upon our own heads if we issue forth “judgment without mercy.” (James 2:13)
The LORD is not impressed with our missionary work, STREET PREACHING, choir singing, pulpit expository, or any other vain work done without being consumed in His love. Read 1 Corinthians 13 today friends.
Memorize this:
“For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.” James 1:20
In all our learning, we had better learn that God is merciful and if he wasn’t, we would both already and forever be trapped in hell (Psalms 103:10). We do not understand the first thing about Christ or Christianity if we are not living in the revelation of how very merciful He has been to US.
Yes, all who die in sin – including fornication or adultery of any kind (even in the heart) – will spend eternity in the lake of fire (Rev. 21:8, 27). God will judge them and using God’s Word and love, they must be warned by His body … “The Spirit and the bride say Come.” (Rev. 22:17)
An important biblical component for me is to forgive others and speak and communicate with love and mercy to them. I have my own deep, infinite, utter, and present need for the saving grace and mercy of God. God surely will redeem, forgive, restore, and show His blessed mercy to all who fear and obey Him in repentance (returning) to Him. Psalms 103:2-3, 11 says “Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases … For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward THEM THAT FEAR HIM.” Did you catch the condition for receiving the divine benefit of forgiveness, healing, and mercy? – “them that fear him.” (v11)
Those who wrongly condemn others in their heart attitudes, do not fear God.
If you need mercy – and you certainly do – God requires that you show it to others in order to initially receive and to continue to receive it from Him.
God told us to WIN the lost and not to alienate them – “He that WINNETH souls is wise.” (Proverbs 11:30) Pray this now as you read these words: LORD, please break us today and grant us Thy wisdom, being ever so mindful of what GREAT mercy You have shown our sinful souls!
It is obvious that no matter how perfectly we administer the mercy and truth of Jesus Christ, that some are going to reject Him and us. Yet, we should never do anything in the flesh to intentionally alienate those trapped in the dismal darkness of sin. God never commissioned us to spurn others out of our own hateful hearts.
It is a very important thing and exercise to get it out in the open that you have no righteousness at all outside of that which you are clothed with by Jesus Christ (Isaiah 64:6; Jeremiah 17:9; Philippians 3:9, etc.). Praying Titus 3:5-6 aloud every morning diminishes and obliterates self-righteousness by continually establishing just why you are saved today – “according to his mercy.”
“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.” Titus 3:5-6
Below is the testimony of a forgiven, transformed, minister of God’s truth:
“I have learned that it is the goodness and kindness of God that leads many to repentance. I was once a man who “preached AT” people with very little true love for their souls. God allowed me to be broken and I was knocked off my “high horse.” Now my views on STREET PREACHING remain the same, (it is necessary) but now instead of “preaching AT” people, The LORD has instilled the desire to preach “TO” them, knowing that they are in need of the savior – no less that I am! His compassion compels this disciple to at times plead, to reason with people instead of “yelling” at them. The message remains powerful and is not watered down, but the power available when “Love” is the motivation is greater.” Kevin Woltkamp
The LORD will allow us – if we are full of self-righteousness and arrogant pride – to fall and He will reveal to us our own infinite need for His ongoing, present mercy and bring us to truly be “poor in spirit” so that we will see His eternal kingdom and help others in the same (Matt. 5:3).
Some among us have “forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.”
“But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.” 2 Peter 1:9
“And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, 25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.” 2 Timothy 2:24-26
Let’s let God speak for Himself by simply preaching HIS Words and ceasing to speak our own words and condemnations. The unchanging LORD instructed His servant Ezekiel to “speak with MY words unto them.” (Ezek. 3:4)
All men have sinned and are already condemned of the LORD who is “Holy, holy, holy,” and yet, He came to this earth for the express and divine purpose of rescuing them – not condemning them. If they refuse to repent and receive Christ, they will spend eternity in the lake of fire (Rev. 20:11-15). As those whom the Great Physician has healed, we must with grateful and contrite hearts reach out by inviting others to repent and be saved … “The Spirit and the bride say Come.” (Rev. 22:17)

“Thank you for posting this one! So many women who need God are always being pushed away further and further because of the status people have given them. When really, all they need is love and security! Thank you so much for this! You’ve led me to some wonderful, living water so that I may feed my thirsty soul. I really do appreciate it! This website (SafeGuardYourSoul.com) is one of the best I’ve ever seen!” Susan D.
“I remember some ‘street preachers’ and I use that term very loosely who went to a satanist church to ‘witness’ by yelling “God hates you” at them over and over…but thinking they did God a service-meanwhile made a mockery of Christianity. That is evangelism?” Laurie C.
“I have seen what you’re saying. Many of these street preachers are in the flesh. They are not being led by the Spirit and they are cruel and discriminating. You know, like they did in Michigan with the pigs head. They still have not repented of that. In fact, people actually worship the person that was doing that pig head. It is unfit and is not the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It’s not being led by the Spirit and therefore fruit is not being born for Christ’s glory. The Father says if you don’t bear fruit you will be cut down. You will get thrown into the fire. Nothing like a healthy fear of the Lord, the beginning of wisdom, Amen.” Lawrence J.

“But God, who is Rich in Mercy” [podcast]

Ephesians 2:1-10
“1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
8 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.”

Dancing on Hell’s Grave: Why We Need not Fear Death: Resurrection Joy – Fearless in Death [podcast]

Resurrection Joy – Fearless in Death
– Dancing on Hell’s Grave
“But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.” Proverbs 1:33
Dancing on Fear’s Grave!
“O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?” 1 Corinthians 15:55
Those who are ready to die and be with Jesus do not fear death (1 John 4:16-18).
Eternal perspective. Hope for eternal rest, glory with Christ and the Father.
In Christ, when we close our eyes in death, we awake to the resurrection bliss of eternal joy with Him who is “the resurrection and the life” (John 11:25).
“For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: 17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins. 18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished. 19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. 20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. 21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.” 1 Corinthians 15:16-21
We are fully confident that the moment we pass, we breathe our last, we shall “be present with the Lord.”
“Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: 7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) 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
The death of a Christian is not a tragedy.
Death is our passport to glory.
Death without Jesus Christ is the tragedy.
What have we to fear other than the long wait till we meet Him?!
“I think it’s sad to see so many who claim to be Christians
acting all worried about dying… I get excited more each day
about getting to be with the Lord.
The good ole days are just ahead!
Happy New Years!” Kirk
“For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” Philippians 1:21
For the one who is truly in Christ, “to die is gain.”
“For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.” Hebrews 13:14
Jesus Christ is “the resurrection and the life” and will soon raise up into eternal glory all who truly know Him.
“Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.” John 11:25
Jesus Christ is the “Exceeding Great Reward” of every true believer (Genesis 15:1). They seek nothing more than Him! He is truly their “first love” and all consuming passion (Revelation 2:4-5). He’s coming back soon and He promised that He’s going to reward every man according to his work which is the reflection of of what’s in a man’s heart.
“And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.” Revelation 22:12
Because Jesus rose again, all who are born again in Him are raised up spiritually in this life to overcome all sin, satan, and the world and will be soon raised up into eternal glory with Him.
“And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead.” Romans 1:4
“O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?”
Where O Where is it! Now, say these blessed, divinely-inspired words of our LORD Jesus Christ aloud prayerfully –“O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?” (1 Corinthians 15:55)
GOT FEAR? – “I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.” (Psalms 34:4) So, what is the divine prescription for being delivered from all fear? Read the verse again and you will notice that seeking the face of the LORD is your deliverance.
Seeking the LORD is always the answer. Getting delivered from “ALL” fear:
“I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.” Psalms 34:4
Notice here that one must seek the LORD for deliverance from fear.
Why do we fear?
“People fear because their faith is in self, not in God. Therefore they try and meet their own needs. Matt. 6:33 says when we make God’s kingdom and His righteousness a priority He will meet our needs.” Karen Cochran
All fear shall be dispelled as the regenerated disciple diligently seeks the LORD – the only One who “is love.”
“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
When someone close to us passes on to the next life, dies, we need not fear, namely if they were known of God (Isaiah 57:1-2).
Jesus Again Foretells Death, Resurrection
Remember how Jesus’ disciples were “exceeding sorry” when He foretold of His own death, burial, and resurrection?
“And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men: 23 And they shall kill him, and the third day he shall be raised again. And they were exceeding sorry.” Matthew 17:22-23
Of this passage, Shadrack Rotich notes: “They were saddened and forgot to be encouraged by the Word of Jesus that in 3 days He was raising again.”
Because our LORD Jesus was raised from the dead, so we have full hope and confidence that so shall all who are known of Him. We need not therefore fear or sorrow.

“But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken (raise up, make alive) your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.” Romans 8:11
“The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come. 2 He shall enter into peace: they shall rest in their beds, each one walking in his uprightness.” Isaiah 57:1-2
Pray this: Father thank You so very much for sending Your only begotten Son for me! Thank You that the Son of God died and You raised Him again to justify me and that Your resurrection life and power indwells me today as I abide identified with and in the death and burial of Jesus! Glory to God Most High! Thank You LORD Jesus for Your resurrection power to victoriously overcome all sin, Satan, and this sinful world and to be fruitful in helping others know You. I now look for Your soon return LORD Jesus. Amen Jesus!

Young’s Literal Translation YLT Exposed

by Will Kinney
Anyone who tries to pawn off Young’s “literal” translation as being the infallible words of God simply does not know what he is talking about. It is not even a good translation. It is little more than a passing footnote in the ever changing panorama of perverted bible versions that have come and gone over the years.
There is only one Bible that has stood the test of time and its critics. There is only one Bible that is believed and defended by thousands of Bible believers today as being the true “book of the LORD”- the Authorized King James Holy Bible – celebrating over 400 years of being THE Bible of the English speaking people.
Let’s compare a bit:
One that made me laugh out loud when I first saw it was 1 Kings 18:21.
Here we read in the KJB: “And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long HALT YE BETWEEN TWO OPINIONS? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.”
But Youngs “literal” has: “and Elijah cometh nigh unto all the people, and saith, `TILL WHEN ARE YE LEAPING ON THE TWO BRANCHES? — if Jehovah [is] God, go after Him; and if Baal, go after him;’ and the people have not answered him a word.”
—————
Here is the YLT telling us Jesus had to be saved which would mean He was a sinner:
Zechariah 9:9 KJB – “Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, AND HAVING SALVATION; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.”
Youngs – “Rejoice exceedingly, O daughter of Zion, Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem, Lo, thy King doth come to thee, Righteous — AND SAVED IS HE, Afflicted — and riding on an ass, And on a colt — a son of she-asses.”
—————
Acts 11:26 KJB – “And the disciples WERE CALLED Christians first in Antioch.”
Young’s 1898 – “the disciples also WERE DIVINELY CALLED first in Antioch Christians.”
The KJB and almost every other Bible reads: “And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples WERE CALLED Christians first in Antioch.
—————
Youngs’ “literal” has many examples of mind-boggling, ridiculous readings as well.
In Psalms 141:7 we read: “Our bones are scattered at the grave’s mouth, as when ONE CUTTETH AND CLEAVETH WOOD upon the earth.
But in Youngs we see: Psalm 141:7 “As ONE TILLING AND RIPPING UP THE LAND, Have our bones been scattered AT THE COMMAND OF SAUL.” (Say What?)
—————
1 Samuel 25:22 “So and more also do God unto the enemies of David, if I leave of all that pertain to him by the morning light any that PISSETH AGAINST THE WALL.” (Green – “urinates against the wall.”)
But Young has: “thus doth God do to the enemies of David, and thus He doth add, if I leave of all that he hath till the light of the morning — of THOSE SITTING ON THE WALL.”
