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

TODAY someone around us may be hurting … may God use us to comfort them as He has comforted us when were in that state of sadness, despondent.

Jesus beckons us to “Come unto me …. I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28-30)

“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

The LORD is “the God of all comfort.” (2 Corinthians 1:2-5)

May the LORD Jesus Christ be praised, receive all the glory for the members of His beloved body whom He is using to comfort and encourage His body. Recently, a dear brother in Christ, reached out to edify, to comfort, to exhort, and to give thanks for the work of our LORD Jesus that is transpiring. The following response was given to him….

“May the LORD bless you richly in Christ today in all He’s called you to do and you are obediently carrying out and may He especially bestow a marked blessing on your life for your love for His beloved body and how you comfort, edify, and exhort His children. Hebrews 6:10.”

“For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.” Hebrews 6:10

In the onset of this chapter, we have the record of when Jesus sent His disciples out to do His work. Taking care of Christ’s laborers:

“He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me. 41 He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet’s reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s reward. 42 And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.” Matthew 10:40-42

Going through difficulties only enhances our ability to enjoy God and experience His comfort and blessing (James 1:2-4; Romans 8:18).

“Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; 4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. 5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.” 2 Corinthians 1:3-5

The comfort of God’s love is never more realized than when His people endure suffering in this life.

Soon, “we shall ever be with the LORD” with no discomfort forever (1 Thessalonians 4:17; Revelation 21:4; 1 Corinthians 2:9).

“For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.” Romans 8:18

—- There are many, many gems to be discovered in this following treasure-rich passage. I love that here the LORD reveals to us that according in proportion with our “sufferings,” so He will be our “consolation” in that hour – that season of testing (see also 1 Peter 1:5-7). And, as we are blessed by Him during our times of trial, He will use us to comfort others of His body – encouraging and ministering to them about our God who is “the Father of mercies” and “the God of all comfort”! Beloved, if you are truly His, He is really going to be there in your hour of need so just call upon Him!

Comfort Comes in the Mourning

So many clueless parents today are destroying their own children by filling them with dessert when the child hasn’t even eaten the meat and vegetables. In the same way, false leaders today are spiritually, eternally assassinating their gullible, biblically illiterate audiences by feeding them the cotton candy “best life now” gospel instead of teaching them the cross at the center of the original Gospel of Jesus (Luke 9:23-24; 2 Timothy 4:2-4).

Many who aren’t mourning (death, burial) are seeking comfort (resurrection). Not going to happen. No cross = No resurrection.

MANY WANT THE COMFORT YET REFUSE THE CROSS.

Comfort (resurrection) Comes in the Mourning (dying, death, burial).

“Blessed are they that mourn (death, the cross): for they shall be comforted (raised up).” Matthew 5:4

Those who mourn in this life are already experiencing a foretaste of glory divine – comfort from the “God of all comfort” (2 Corinthians 1:2-5).

Many selfishly seek comfort and yet, it’s only those who find comfort in obeying Christ’s teachings who will be filled with His perpetual comfort. The quick fix is a band aid while the cross life assures a life of deep divine peace and comfort (Psalms 119:165; Matthew 5:4; Philippians 4:7).

Dare we conclude, as so many of God’s children have throughout the ages, that we never experience the LORD’s blessed love so much as when we are in the greatest times of trial?

Beloved of God, What ales you? Are you grieving? Struggling with sinfulness? Wounded? Tempted? In a fiery trial? Brokenhearted?

Who made us (spirit, heart, soul, body) from the dust of the earth and breathed into us His breath of life? (See Genesis 1:26-28.) Can He heal and comfort us? What does His Word say?

THE LORD PERSONALLY COMFORTS US IN ALL OUR AFFLICTIONS

Let’s take a look at a larger portion of this:

“Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ. 6 And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation. 7 And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation. 8 For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life: 9 But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead: 10 Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us;” 2 Corinthians 1:2-5

“Everlasting Consolation”

“Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle (Holy Scriptures). Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace, Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work.” 2 Thessalonians 2:14-17

The cross is essential to experiencing divine “comfort” and “consolation.” That resurrection divine life fueling upward His people during their times of suffering, brings the greatest times/seasons of His blessed fruitfulness. Our beloved brother Joseph experienced something of that closeness to the LORD, didn’t he? – “For God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction” (Genesis 41:52).

“Fruitful in the land of my affliction” is going to be our own testimony as we, like Joseph, cling and draw ever nearer to our LORD in that hour of affliction.

The reality of the comfort of His love is perhaps only a truth in our minds until we are truly tested. Then, that truth becomes a reality in our own personal lives that forges intimacy with Him such as we have never previously experienced. Then, we speak out of personal revelation to others to help them.

The story of Joseph is itself a monumental masterpiece of the comforting love of our heavenly Father (Genesis 37-50).

Of this treasured passage in 2 Corinthians 1, one believer notes:

“Notice how the consolation and comfort flows within the community of believers, stemming from affliction and suffering that flows amongst them. This is the reciprocal participation or “fellowship” in the death and resurrection of Christ (2 Corinthians 1:9). Death equals suffering. Resurrection equals comfort.”

HE GAVE US HIS WORD TO COMFORT US

“For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.” Romans 15:4

HIS EMINENT RETURN COMFORTS US

“For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.” 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18

Jesus told us that the Holy Ghost is our “Comforter”:

“And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever.” John 14:16

“But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.” John 14:26

“But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:” John 15:26

“Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.” John 16:7

GOOD NEWS: The “so great salvation” accomplished for us by Christ’s one sacrifice and continual intercession (John 19:30; Hebrews 2:3; 7:25; 10:12), is all the believer ever needs to appropriate for all desired comfort, healing, deliverance from addiction, sins, etc. Let no one deceive you friend, Jesus Christ, the eternal God, did a complete work. He failed in no way in His mission to redeem mankind, spirit, soul, and body (Luke 4:18; 1 John 3:8; Acts 10:38). Christ crushed the head of the serpent (Genesis 3:15) and frees His children of every affliction as they call upon Him in truth (Galatians 5:1; Psalms 34:17,19; 97:10; Acts 26:18; Luke 10:17-20, etc.). He is our “very present help in trouble”!

“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Psalms 46:1

“The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of ALL their troubles.” Psalms 34:17

“MANY are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them ALL.” Psalms 34:19

“The Unity of the Spirit” Ephesians 4:3 [podcast]

Anyone who does not uphold His written Word isn’t even His and so true disciple of Jesus have no unity with those antichrist counterfeits! Boom Jesus. Memorize Christ’s words on record in John 8:47. “Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but […]

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.”

Apostasy

Jacked Up Jezebel Rebuked [podcast]

“Jezebel is a widely rampant spirit of rebellion that is hard to get rid of, rooted in pride, self-will, and self-sufficiency. Only the LORD can deliver but only if the individual truly repents and submits to Him, to His Word.” Anita Villarreal

Any person defending this jezebel heresy that women can be pastors, elders over men, is under the control of Satan, period. And in need of true repentance (James 4:7).

—-There are NO female apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, or teachers under the New Testament (Ephesians 4:8, 11-12). Jesus gave these “gifts unto MEN.” (Ephesians 4:8) There is not even one woman mentioned in 27 books as an elder over Christ’s flock. Such is clearly forbidden (1 Timothy 2:11-12). In Acts 21:9 we read of Phillip’s daughters which “did prophesy” which is a gift of the Spirit (one of the nine-1 Corinthians 12:7-10). The office gifts are eldership functions for men called to be overseers over Christ’s flock, which is completely different than the gifts of the Spirit which every believer can function in and certainly women are seen doing such as Phillip’s daughters and how women are mentioned concerning operating in the gifts of the Spirit in 1 Corinthians 14.

Classic case of a jezebel lashing out when the Word of GOD corrects her (2 Timothy 3:16-17). Her rebellion is against God. Jezebel is utterly rebellious. She hates what God’s Word says and so the demons that control jezebels will lash out in personal attacks against the men who stand on the truth unwaveringly (such as did Elijah whom Jezebel sought to kill).

“Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.” 1 Timothy 2:11-14

“As I look around America I ask myself who can find a virtuous woman? Whose whole life is surrendered to God. And centered in the fear of the Lord. No woman will submit to their husbands unless they first submit to God. Ephesians 5:22 says women are to submit to their husbands, “as unto the Lord.” That must come first. And what is a great price in the sight of God? A woman who has a meek and quiet spirit (1 Peter 3:4). This is true beauty to God. But Jezebels are the complete opposite. Full of rebellion, pride and hatred! God says throw her down!” Karen Cochran

From the divine perspective, this is not about oppression but rather about protect. See Revelation 2:20-24 to see what Jesus warns when a woman is allowed to lead as an elder in the body of Christ. He uses the words “The depths of Satan” and speaks of the death and destruction that will result when the men allow a woman to lead in a manner that is outside of the stated role God ordained for the woman.

Yes the LORD said He will pour out His Spirit on all flesh, sons and daughter, but not to anoint a woman to do something HE forbids. Women are to teach women yes but not the general body of believers (Titus 2:1-5). There are NO female elders in the New Testament. God forbids it. Eldership is reserved for men – to humbly teach, lead and protect and cherish women and children.

“There’s a crazy role reversal across the land and men should always lead. Even our women’s prayer group was led by the pastor because that’s what he believed. Women are more emotional and men more logical. Both have their designated roles . God meant them to compliment each other rather than to compete.” John Umlauf

When people don’t like what God’s Word states, they will attack the mere messenger as if that changes the truth. Not. And, they heap judgment on themselves by doing so (Matthew 7:1-5; James 2:13). Persecution

“For we are not as many, which corrupt (twist, adulterate) the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.” 2 Corinthians 2:17

“He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.” John 8:47

“Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.” Proverbs 13:13

Jesus Addresses the Ahabs and Self-Appointed Jezebel at the Church at Thyatira

Revelation 2:20-24

Revelation 2:20-24 is about a certain self-appointed woman who was allowed by the spineless men in Thyatira to operate out of the biblically-stated order for women in the church setting.

Rev 2:20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.
Rev 2:21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.
Rev 2:22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.
Rev 2:23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
Rev 2:24 But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.
