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)

According to the Son of God, the definition of a hypocrite is one who stands in judgment of others while he himself has sin in his own life he hasn’t dealt with in repentance before a holy God (Matthew 7:1-5). Such a man is heaping undiluted judgment upon his own pate (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.

“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.

Pride and False Prophets [podcast]

“And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.” Matthew 24:11

What’s the difference between true and false servants of the LORD?

Jeremiah 23 is essential concerning recognizing the “MANY false prophets” which Jesus foretold would “deceive MANY” in this late hour before His return (Matthew 24:11).

True servants of the LORD stand in the counsel, the WORD of the LORD and not in the evil imaginations, dreams, or visions of their own wicked hearts.

Jeremiah 23
“Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they make you vain: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the LORD.
17 They say still unto them that despise me, The LORD hath said, Ye shall have peace; and they say unto every one that walketh after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon you.
18 For who hath stood in the counsel of the LORD, and hath perceived and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard it?
19 Behold, a whirlwind of the LORD is gone forth in fury, even a grievous whirlwind: it shall fall grievously upon the head of the wicked.
20 The anger of the LORD shall not return, until he have executed, and till he have performed the thoughts of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it perfectly.
21 I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied.
22 But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.”

ARE YOU in God’s Word daily or have you backslidden? It’s either one or the other.

True servants of the LORD, as was the case with Paul and Timothy, will get YOU into God’s Word for yourself…

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

“As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:” 1 Peter 2:2

So both the LORD’s apostle Paul and the apostle Peter instructed believers to get into the Word of God for themselves – to “study” and to “desire” it. Any man pretending to represent Christ and not do this very thing repeatedly is a bona fide wolf in sheep’s clothing, a devil.

Imagine parents who continued to feed their infant and never taught that baby to pick up the spoon and feed themself…. so that child would perpetually be dependent upon someone else feeding them…. in the natural this is unheard of, yet it’s rampant in that which claims to be Christ’s “church.”

Read Jeremiah 23.

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

“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

Pride vs Humility

“Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.” (Proverbs 16:18) True humility before God first, then men, always wins – “Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.” (James 4:10)

Jezebel's Table [podcast]

The allegiance and loyalty of the false leaders verses the allegiance of true followers and servants of Jesus. Self-serving, cross-less, compromised hireling wolves hiding behind the cloth are nothing new saints: “Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat at JEZEBEL’S TABLE“ (1 Kings 18:19). Eating at “Jezebel’s table” as did the false prophets of Elijah’s day, reveals their refusal to truly repent and serve God at whatever the cost. Those who tucked their feet under “Jezebel’s […]

Beware of the "Prophetic" Gurus [podcast]

“For there shall be no more any vain vision nor flattering divination within the house of Israel.” Ezekiel 12:24 Did you catch that? Why will there soon, for eternity, be no more “vain vision nor flattering divination” within God’s house? It’s because all the false prophets will be vanquished into the bowels of eternal “damnation.” (2 Peter 2:1-3) WHEN YOU ARE PERSONALLY, DAILY GROUNDED IN GOD’S WORD, YOU DON’T RUN AROUND LOOKING FOR SOME SELF-APPOINTED FLAKE WITH A SUPPOSED WORD, VISION, OR DREAM!

“Come unto Me, all Ye that Labour and are Heavy Laden, and I will Give You Rest” [podcast

God is “Holy, holy, holy” and “God is love.” (Isaiah 6:3; 1 John 4:8, 16; Revelation 4:8)

“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. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” John 3:16-18

Jesus came and died to save us “while we were yet sinners.”

“For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:6-8

The Proof of God’s Love for all Men

“In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. 10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.” 1 John 4:9-10

“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

“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 God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. 5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. 6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. 7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. 8But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the“ lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” Revelation 21:4-8

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” 1 Corinthians 2:9

Prayer: Heavenly Father, please do Your ever-deepening work in my heart and life. Please imbue my innermost being with your holiness, holy fear, and love. Bless this vessel to be purified, cleansed of all iniquity and falsity, made authentic by You dear LORD. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Does God Know I Love Him? [podcast]

YOU know when you are listening to a wolf when He only speaks of God’s love for us but never about God’s command that we love Him – and if we don’t, we are going to hell. Beware. The LORD’s been 100% faithful to us and yet He requires our faithfulness to Him or hell awaits (Matthew 22:37-40). Our obedience to the LORD should come out of our love for Him. Obedience to God is an expression of our love for Him. “Obedience to God, is the deepest level of love, and the greatest form of worship.” unknown Jesus says: […]

Church Membership, Manipulation, and Money [podcast]

Is there a connection between church membership and money? “Her princes (leaders) in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain.” Ezekiel 22:27 There is no evidence in the New Testament of what we see today perpetrated as “church membership.” Church membership is merely a tool in the arsenal of modern pastors to capture the souls and the money of those ensnared by it. “Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.” 2 Corinthians 1:24 In […]

Churchianity vs Christianity Many use the term “very involved in church” instead of deeply rooted and in love with Jesus Christ. See the difference? Beware.

Why have you chosen such to be that with which you identify? Most pastors make a big deal out of belonging to some organization, church, or group—because this puts them in charge—instead of Jesus.
