Does This Description Fit Your Life?
“This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. 6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.” 2 Timothy 3:1-7
The previous passage reveals just how self-serving the last generation of those who claim to be of God really are. Such is the opposite of the true Christian life.
Just what does it mean to be a truly Heaven-bound follower of Jesus?
“So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:33
The life of the Christian is about giving – giving our lives to Christ – dying to self so He can live and reign instead of us.
Beloved, Jesus is Calling You to Come and to Dine with Him …. but it must be His way, not yours and not the false way of the modern, apostate church which is calling you to worship at the altar of self-love (Psalms 119:104, 128). They are giving you a false message because they want you to life them, to buy their books, to patronize their church business.
The daily cross is essential if one is to follow Jesus Christ. There are no shortcuts.
Listen to the following words and see if this your attitude toward the Almighty:
“Thanks for what you’re giving me LORD but fooey on You and Your work and workers! I just received You Jesus in order to get myself out of hell but I don’t want to be bothered and inconvenienced with really having to obey You in this life. This is MY life. I’ll spend and squander MY money anyway I I I I I wish because III earned it. Never mind You hindering me from being my own god….”
Sound familiar? Sound like the Garden of Eden? “Ye shall be as (your own little) gods …”(Genesis 3) Were not Adam and Eve tempted to be their own little gods who did their own autonomous bidding? Yes and that’s the absolute antitheses of the Christ-glorifying life isn’t it?
Let me stop to say that this message is from God’s Word which has much to say about stewardship and why? Because the way we steward our dollars and earthly possessions is a direct reflection of the true priorities of our hearts. This message is about the Lordship of Christ in our personal lives. Christ calls us to lay down our lives and to truly follow Him in this wicked world. He never told us to go to church or to be a good church member or even a good person. No, fellowship with His body and the fruit of the Spirit are exclusively produced in the lives of those who simply obey His command to deny ourselves, take up our cross and to truly obey and follow Him (Luke 9:23-24; John 14, 15, 21; 15:1-16, etc.).
ARE you a giver OR are you a self-serving, self-preserving devil who spends all your money on the god of self? Don’t like my pointed question? Just move on – it’s that simple. No hard feelings at all. I’m not going to stop telling the truth because you got offended at the truth (Romans 3:4; Galatians 4:16). If you don’t like the truth it’s because you are against He who is “the truth” and whose“word is truth.” (John 14:6; 17:17) It’s only “if” we continue in His truth after being saved that we are His“disciples indeed.” (John 8:31-32) If this message offends you perhaps it only proves the point – that you are spending your life and your money on the one you truly worship – self. Repent or move on. Repent? Yes, and decide that God is going to get the first portion of your time and everything HE HE HE brings into your hands. Write out the very first check to Him (His work) – before you get paid. – “All things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee.” (1 Chronicles 29:14)
Think about this: True Gospel laborers work with deep conviction and passion and don’t get paid predictably or even at all most of the times. Why? Because so many who claim to love Jesus refuse to obey Jesus with the resources Jesus brings into their lives because they have mortgaged themselves to the hilt and are spending their monies on the god of self (idolatry). The work of Christ is put last, because the LORD and His work are not important to most who claim to know Him who gave all and who gives them all that they have. To fuel His workers is to fuel His Word in the earth – going into the hearts of the men Christ died to save and to edify and equip to do His work (Ephesians 4).
If you are ready to be transparent before the LORD, keep reading……. This is what the LORD flooded my thoughts with this morning. Many of those whom He has saved have departed from Him and don’t even realize it. They are living to embellish self, feeding the lusts of their sinful fleshly desires instead of crucifying them (Romans 6). They claim to be saved and attend “church” or even read their Bible and pray, and yet are caught up in “the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.” (Mark 4:19)
ARE you honoring or are you dishonoring the LORD? Do you truly honor Him with the monies He alone is allowing you to bring in and for which you shall give account before His throne?
“Honour the LORD (HOW?) with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: 10 So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.” Proverbs 3:9-10
Before we go any further, let me say that the Word of God will offend self-serving, self-worshiping devils who, upon hearing the naked truth straight from God’s Word, refuse to repent. These are mere actors – imposters/hypocrites! But it’s time to put our money where our mouth is or stop pretending.
“My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.” 1 John 3:18
“But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.” James 1:22
A hypocrite is an imposter, a counterfeit, a person whose actions don’t align with their mere profession. Have you played this part?
“He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. 7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.” Mark 7:6-7
Are We Ready to Get Real?
When our lives are truly given over to the LORD, everything we own becomes His in our hearts and minds and we are therefore givers – Not free-loaders or takers but givers. Love gives, lust gets.
“They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.” Titus 1:16
Self-love was prophesied to be overwhelmingly prevalent in the final days among those who have a mere form of godliness but deny the authentic rule and reign of Christ in their daily lives – the daily cross where we lay it all down (die) so Christ alone can reign (2 Timothy 3:1-6).
Please hit SHARE and let’s see the real and the genuine, authentic disciples separated from those who serve the god of self and mammon while feigning (faking) to be serving Christ who said “Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. 22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye (focus) be single (singly set on Christ), thy whole body shall be full of light. 23 But if thine eye (focus) be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness! 24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. YE CANNOT SERVE GOD AND MAMMON.” (Matthew 6:19-24)
Are we so very deluded that we vainly believe that we can ignore the LORD and His work and not give account and suffer the consequences later? Are you so deceived that you believe the way you are stewarding your money that God gives you doesn’t point to the true priorities of your heart and reveal who you truly are? Jesus says differently. The rich man in Luke 16 refused to render practical, financial help to Lazarus, a poor man in his earthly life. There roles were eternally flipped upon dying (Luke 16:19-31). Think about it.
IS IT A SIN TO GIVE TO THE RICH?
Yes, giving to the rich is a sin. It’s pure waste.
Proverbs 18:9 says: “He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.”
According to the above Bible verse, apparently laziness and wasting resources are equally sinful.
22:16 says: “He that oppresseth the poor to increase his riches, and he that giveth to the rich, shall surely come to want.”
This verse above reveals that exploiting the poor for self-serving gain and giving to someone who is already “rich” are vile sins in the eyes of the Almighty. Think about how so many flock to give more money to the millions upon millions possessed by the wolves of our day – Joyce Meyer, Kenneth Copeland, Creflo Dollar, the Emergent church devils, etc.
“And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.” 1 Corinthians 7:31
We are to use and to enjoy the things of this world without abusing or misusing them and reveling in them while not putting God first in our finances (Deuteronomy 8:18; Proverbs 3:9-10). The whiner replies: “Well doesn’t God want us to have nice things?” Define nice. Jesus defined it as necessities (Matthew 6:19-34). The rebel continues with “Well, is it a sin to have nice things?” Yes, if those things are your idols and if you are wasting all your money on the worship of self. That would mean you are an idolater and not fit to enter the kingdom of Heaven (Ephesians 5:5-7; Revelation 21:8). Many who call themselves Christ’s followers today have no resemblance of being like Christ was on earth – a minimalist. In fact Jesus lacked a vehicle, a place to sleep, and tax money. So many who claimed to be saved have little or no biblical stewardship wisdom or discipline and many of these run from any infringement of their “liberty” to be their own little lawless god who is free to spend and to waste and to squander every penny that comes into their hands. But Judgment Day is on the way.
Your personal stewardship is being watched by the LORD Himself (Mark12:41-44). … This is a very enlightening and insightful truth – What Did Jesus Sit and Watch?
Getting Around to It?
Never mind the excuse that you’re going to one day “get around” to it – “getting around to” obeying and honoring and worshiping God with the finances He gives you. WHAT IF God, next week, ceases the flow of money in your life and says “I may get ‘around to’ supplying more for you.” How would that make you feel? It’s time to pull the trigger – to do the truth before it’s too late.
The principles of God’s judgment upon us are made clear in Jesus words recorded in Matthew 25:
“And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. 41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: 42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: 43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. 44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? 45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. 46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.” Matthew 25:40-46
Does our refusal to be generous point to our lost state and eternal destination?
“Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. 46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.“ Matthew 25:46
What we do points to who we really are. Those who claim to be serving the One who gave all and yet do not give their lives to Him and give little or nothing to His work are only deceiving themselves because God cannot be mocked or deceived (Galatians 6:7-8). Your giving of your life or lack thereof sure does point to who you are and where you are going to spend eternity. This is exactly what we just read in Matthew 25 and also as Jesus Christ taught in the literal story of the once “certain (actual) rich man” (on earth) who has been incarcerated in hell for at least 2,000 years and will never escape. Will you follow him? Will you obediently choose to love the LORD above yourself and to therefore give up in worship to the LORD a portion of the money He gives you in order to continue to keep Him first and to clearly demonstrate that you worship Him and not self or money? (Matthew 6:24) Is Jesus truly your “first love” or are you a phony? If you are authentic and not fake, show Him you love Him by obeying Him.
Think about it: You didn’t hesitate to get into debt for the temporal trinkets of this fleeting sinful world, right? You had the wherewithal and the desire to spend and to get into debt for those fleeting trinkets and yet, you have been “going to get around to” obeying God with your finances for years, right? Why? Could it be because the LORD is a second class citizen in your self-serving life? Is that the root here? Is self-idolatry the root sin here?
“There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty. 25 The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself. 26 He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him: but blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth it.” Proverbs 11:24-26
If you are authentically saved, stand up and be counted by obeying the One you say you serve. Show it. Do it! Talk really is cheap (1 John 3:18). Be a doer or face the truth that you are a counterfeit.
“And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.” 2 Corinthians 5:15
Word of faith message? No, this is a biblical message – a simple call to put our money where our mouths are and to cease being imposters, counterfeits. If you wish to be coddled in your sin – to be told you are okay in your sin – there are many who will accommodate your rebellion.
“I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; 2 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.” 2 Timothy 4:1-4
The fact that you never get a pointed message like this at your church clearly reveals that you are being seduced and deceived – You are being coddled in your sins and disobedience, never called to truly repent, to lay down your life and to obey God – and to thereby experience true, resurrection and an abiding, life-giving relationship with Jesus Christ (John 15:1-16). But how’s that going to end up at the Judgment? The Son of God solemnly warns:
“Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. 21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.” Matthew 7:20-23
A man who is a prophet is first a servant by the mercy of God and does not have to say it and should not be dwelling on a title but the serving function of the gift of God in him. Prophet is not a title and anyone touting it as a title is automatically to be considered false. Read what Jesus taught: Matt 20:24-28; 23:8-12. If God has placed a certain gifting in a man it’s only for the LORD’s glory and for the man it’s to be tools to humbly serve – Read 1 Peter 4:10-11.
So even though you’re not obeying God, you are refusing to repent and literally do His stated will, you are lukewarm, you are at ease in Zion, you vainly believe that you are still going to God’s holy Heaven while the fruit of your life reveals you are living in rebellion to Him?
“Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.” Matthew 7:21
Our obedience or disobedience to the LORD’s commands truly reveals who we truly worship and are truly serving – God or self.
“And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. 4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5 But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. 6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.” 1 John 2:3-6
If you are not currently abiding in and therefore obeying Christ, of which your finances, your stewardship is a litmus test, it’s because you have backslid – you are not ready to meet Him who is “Holy, holy, holy.” (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8) Jesus Christ is lovingly calling you to “Come unto Me” and to lay down your life at His blessed feet in unreserved surrender.
Prayer: Holy Father, I admit that after You gave Your life for me, You gave all to redeem me and found and saved me, I have squandered some of the resources You alone brought into my hands. I have not honored You by obeying Your clear, repeated commands for me to be a generous giver and to give You the first portion of the income You are bringing into my hands. Please forgive my sin LORD. LORD Jesus, I am now crucified with You. I am no longer my own but Yours. I lay my life at Your feet. I here this moment surrender all to You my LORD. Into Your hands I submit my spirit, my soul, my body, my things, my income, my possessions, and my will. From this moment forward, I am all Yours. In Jesus holy name, amen.

Sending the Divine Light into “The Prison House” [podcast]
Jesus is Bringing Incarcerated Souls to Himself: YOUR GIFTS ARE REACHING BEHIND THE COLD HARD WALLS OF PRISON CELLS – INTO THE SEARCHING, HUNGERING SOULS OF A CAPTIVE AUDIENCE OF MEN AND WOMEN: Inasmuch as there is financial supply, ministry books continue to flood jails across our nation – touching the hearts of the incarcerated for Christ! Each of these books will be read by many.
“This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.” 1 Timothy 1:15

Believers who are connected to this outreach are sending a continual stream of the names and mailing addresses of incarcerated souls they are ministering to. Dropping surprise blessings upon inmates creates a chain reaction of other inmates writing to request these Gospel filled books for themselves. Below is a mere sampling of the letters received from inmates requesting their own book(s) or additional books from this ministry.
The Body of Christ in the Earth is Making Eternal History!
WHO will say “I’m committing to $20 month!” to get Christ’s Gospel to more incarcerated souls? Who?….Many support the ear-ticklers and neglect to honor God by supporting HIS work. Will you? If God’s work matters to you, demonstrate your agreement with Him by committing to supporting His work. Those who truly believe HIS work matters, get behind it.
We His people will continue to teach His Word as He commanded (Matthew 28:18-20).
May our LORD minister to each of us, His people, concerning our stewardship of His resources.
Remember what Jesus said about “the least of these”?
“For I was an hungered, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: 36 naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.” Matthew 25:35-36
“And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.” Matthew 25:40
Also:
“and whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; 24 knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.” Col. 3:23-24
Let us set our houses (lives) in order, readying to meet Christ, repenting and deciding to support HIS work – to take out of what HE is giving us and putting it into HIS Word, work (Deuteronomy 8:18; Proverbs 3:9-10; Matthew 6:19-24; 2 Corinthians 9:6-11; Ephesians 4:28, etc.). Each and every bit of our blessings came from His wonderful hand (1 Chronicles 29:14; James 1:17).
In America, Over 2 million souls sit in prison cells as we speak. Think: Mission Opportunity for Christ’s body.
The LORD wants to bring to Himself “them that sit in darkness out of the prison house” (Isaiah 42:7). He wants to draw them to Himself, to cause them to call upon Him as He beckons those in darkness to “Come unto me …” (Matthew 11:28-30). “The Spirit and the bride” – that’s us! – are extending the divine invitation: “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).
The world is under the darkness of sin. Perhaps We may have never stopped to realize that as WE OURSELVES did “sit in darkness,” Heaven’s KING came with His light to rescue us “While we were yet sinners” (Luke 1:79; Romans 5:6-8, etc.).
Now, in eternal gratitude for our loving Savior, may God bless each of us to participate in shining His light into the sin-stained, darkened hearts of fallen men – so they can repent and be saved by Christ, the only Savior (Acts 4:12; 1 Timothy 2:5-6, etc.).
May this never be said of us: – “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).
“The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.” Psalms 119:130
THERE is no work transpiring in the earth as important as the work of Christ’s Gospel for the eternal souls of men!
Dark jail cells and darkened hearts are being lit up with the flood light of God’s Word, bringing the light of our LORD Jesus and His glorious Gospel – Good News! (2 Corinthians 4:6)
“The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.” Psalms 19:7
Your contributions in this late hour make this possible! God is so good! Together, we are shining “the light of the knowledge of the glory of God” into desperate, hurting souls of the imprisoned.
“For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.” 2 Corinthians 4:6

REACHING “THEM THAT SIT IN DARKNESS”
Many of the incarcerated, with no direction to look but upward, are grasping for the light of Christ
The phrase “Sit in darkness” appears 4 times in God’s Word:
“Such as SIT IN DARKNESS and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron;” Psalms 107:10
“To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that SIT IN DARKNESS out of the prison house.” Isaiah 42:7
“Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I SIT IN DARKNESS, the LORD shall be a light unto me.” Micah 7:8
“To give light to them that SIT IN DARKNESS and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.” Luke 1:79
A big Thank You Kindly to those who are supporting this GOSPEL outreach. You are enabling God’s Word to go forth into the hearts of men daily using nearly every communication medium known to mankind. Your funds are the fuel. God be praised. “WE are labourers TOGETHER with God” (1 Corinthians 3:9). There is room for more Gospel help. We will continue to preach Christ, to preach His Gospel, feeding His sheep and winning the lost from prisons to palaces – “we preach Christ crucified” (1 Corinthians 1:23). Jesus is coming!
May the LORD fill our hearts with His compassion for people, all of which Jesus died to save. – “But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.” (Matthew 9:36)
More on Christ’s Light Shining into dark places, the sin-darkened hearts of men and women, to bring those precious souls into His glorious light!
Unleashing a Flood of Holy Scripture ….
Scripture-rich Gospel books flooding the incarcerated with the light of truth, the light of Christ! Exciting! Captive audience of scared, cornered souls who only have once direction to look…. Upward. And in jails these books get read repeatedly by dozens or more inmates. What we do is drop to people that we know who are in jail, relatives, friends, etc. If you have someone specific you’d like a Gospel care package sent to, please forward their information to me. Thanks.
The Born Again book is a mainstay for dropping to prisoners!
Jesus came specifically “To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me” (Acts 26:18).
Also we go on line and choose specific individuals on the inmate lists and drop-ship books to them. As you can imagine and know, it’s exciting for an inmate to receive something, a gift. Makes them feel super special, like God is shining on them – because He is! One of the books being sent is a very important small book titled What Next Now that You are Saved? …. It’s a real foundation builder and has the plan of salvation to cover all bases.
“Thank you Lord! You have not forgotten those in Prison. We pray in the name of Jesus that Your ministry will be multiplied through Your Word.” Debbie
“WE are labourers TOGETHER with God.” 1 Corinthians 3:9
Why Jesus Came
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, 19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.” Luke 4:18-19
More books going into prisons, reaching those who have nowhere else to look but upward.
“Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.” Isaiah 45:22
This is the book I’m personally most excited to get into the hands and hearts of those who are incarcerated – Moments with Our Master 365 Day Daily Devotional . This is a Scripture-rich book with the most broad spectrum of biblical truth to feed the reader, including how to be saved, the Peace with God section and several installments with specific salvation messages, calling sinners to repent and offering them the opportunity stop, repent, pray, turn to and believe upon the LORD Jesus.
As you know, a young man named Nicholas was saved recently who received the Born Again book from the ministry. He immediately requested more books and so we sent him several more of the ministry’s Scripture-rich volumes
God be praised and thank you: Based on your support, we are able to reach the saved, the lost, the incarcerated. It’s our privilege to support our LORD’s work in the hearts of men.

Adultery
“Flee Fornication” [podcast]
One of the greatest fears any parent in our day should have, would be for their child to grow up and NOT have a genuinely God fearing mate. Pray saints. Pray parents. Sanctify yourselves. “Come out of her” (Revelation 18:4).
“Do not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be a whore; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness.” Leviticus 19:29
Example of prostitution: Whoring out one’s daughter would be to send them to college to learn the ways of the world, of Satan who is “the god of this world,” where they are taught how to fulfill the role of the man—and not a woman (1 Timothy 5:14). No godly parent does such.
Having seen you buy his lies, Satan is laughing you all the way into hell, the bank of unrepentant sinners.
Whoredom has and does today destroy nations. We are seeing a once strong America brought to its knees for the whoredom, namely of those who vainly claim Christ as Savior.
“For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have COMMITTED FORNICATION with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.” Revelation 18:3
“And the kings of the earth, who have COMMITTED FORNICATION and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning.” Revelation 18:9
“But he answered and said unto them, An evil and ADULTEROUS generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas.” Matthew 12:39
1 Corinthians 6:12-20
Flee Fornication
“All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.
14 And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.
15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.
16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.”
“The Pure in Heart”
“Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.” Matthew 5:8
Only those who are born again and die with a pure heart will be with the LORD.
“Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” Proverbs 4:23

On the topic of fornication brother Allen Campbell writes:
“Someone asked me if it’s okay to have relations with a person you love. No, having relations with your boyfriend or girlfriend is called fornication and is a serious sin, because it’s a sin against your own body. Your body is a temple for the Holy Ghost that is in you. Since your body belongs to God, for it has been bought with a price, we must glorify God with our bodies. If you’re committing fornication or adultery and do not repent, then you will not inherit the kingdom of God.
1 Corinthians 6:18-20 KJV – Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 KJV – Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
Revelation 21:7-8 KJV – He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. But 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.
Let’s LEARN Scripture, BELIEVE and OBEY our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ of Nazareth.”
Fornication of Many Forms—all life-destroying and condemned by God
The word “immoral” appears exactly ZERO times in God’s Word, the King James Bible.
“Fornication” appears 36 times.
“Adultery” appears 40 times.
“Lust(s) appears 43 times.
“sodomite(s)” appears 5 times.
Let’s never use the words “sexually immoral” again. Let’s use God’s words for such sin. After all, the use of the phrase “sexually immoral” is subject to sinful man’s definition while the Bible words listed above are clear and convicting.
It’s not “promiscuous”—a word found no where in God’s Word (KJB). The Bible calls all sin outside of the marriage between one man and one woman “fornication.”
“For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should ABSTAIN FROM FORNICATION:” 1 Thessalonians 4:3
Say it with me out loud: “call it what it IS!”
WE often hear of counterfeits, pretending to be Christians, say things like “Well, I don’t care what you do behind closed doors.” To one such lost soul, the following reply was given:
GOD cares about the souls of men for whom He sent His only begotten Son to die (John 3:16). He cares about all “sexuality,” that is, as it pertains to “fornication” which is any and all sex outside of the marriage bed between one man and one woman. ALL, every fornicator is going to burn in the lake of fire (Revelation 21:8, 27; 22:14, etc.).
Sex is Only Safe in Marriage – between one man and one woman.
“Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.” Hebrews 13:4
All fornication is sin.
ALL sex outside of that which is between one man and one woman in marriage, is sin. “Fornication” includes every form of sexual perversion.
All forms of fornication is sin. Fornication is any sexual activity with self or anyone outside of ones opposite sex marriage partner.
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“What about people who are in a relationship and live together and supposedly are not having sex?”
REPLY:
Good morning sister. I didn’t quite understand the first part of your question but as far as living together, cohabiting, such should be for married people only. “FLEE fornication” right? It seems that our LORD’s Word hems us in…. either marry or flee. Seems we have to determine if we truly desire to marry that person and if so, move into doing so, or flee.
“Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.” 1 Corinthians 6:18
As we see exemplified by the beloved Joseph, when tempted by Potipher’s wife, he dashed! Why? Fornication cannot be overcome otherwise or by staying in the fire and expecting not to be burned (Genesis 39).
“Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.” 1 Corinthians 7:1-2
1 Thessalonians 4:3-8
“3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:
4 That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;
5 Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:
6 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.
7 For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.
8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.”
God has a beautiful plan. – If we will simply do things HIS way and no other. HE is able. HE is greater than anything you face today. Memorize Ephesians 3:20 and Mark 10:27, now.
1 Thessalonians 4:1-8
A Life Pleasing to God
1 Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more.
2 For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.
3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:
4 That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;
5 Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:
6 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.
7 For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.
8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.”
God has a beautiful plan. Perhaps, at least in part, God’s “Thou shalt” nots mean “Don’t hurt yourself”!

The Victory of the Cross [podcast]
“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
Many feel hopeless, like they can never overcome the flesh.
Yet, we know that God is able to bring the victory He
ordained in our lives through the crucified life He
commanded that we walk in. “For ye are dead, and your life
is hid with Christ in God” (Colossians 3:3).
Powerful ministry that bears fruit for the glory of God only
comes out of the cross life with Christ whereby you are dead
and buried and Christ is raising you up by His grace, and His
power is filling, propelling and flowing through your life to
minister His truth and love to others (2 Corinthians 4:10-12).
As we consent to our own death and burial, Jesus raises us
upward in HIS divine strength. Divine empowerment in the
life of the disciple of Jesus comes from His resurrection grace
working in our lives as we consent to our own dying—death
and burial. Death and burial precede God raising us up. God
cannot raise us up if we aren’t dead and buried. This cross
concept is at the center of our walk with Jesus, whose death,
burial and resurrection are enacted in our own lives daily
(Romans 6).
“The cross is the answer to loving Jesus more. Your flesh is enmity (hatred) against God. It is the enemy of God and lives in rebellion against Him. It will not submit (Romans 8:7-8). Unless the carnal mind is crucified this rebellion and hatred towards God lives inside you and will be in a constant war with your flesh and the Spirit of God. They are polar opposites! One is light and the other is darkness. The darkness (flesh) must go to the cross to be dead and buried so Jesus can breath into you His newness of life (Romans 6). Then we can begin to love the Lord with all our heart, soul, and mind. And with the love of the Lord we can love our neighbor as ourselves (Matthew 22:37-40).” Karen Cochran
Prayer: Father, in Jesus’ name, I am here and now crucified
with Christ. I am dead and my life is hidden with Christ in God.
