Todd White is a warlock operating under the guise of a Christian evangelist.

When Todd White speaks, if you will observe, it’s always all about HIM and what he is claiming God is supposedly showing him and never about Christ. It’s Todd White’s version of “lifestyle christianity” that he’s portraying, not the biblical model.

Here’s the unfortunate testimony of someone who went to High School with Todd White:

Todd White was the same way in high school. He always had a scam going and could talk a person into believing anything he said. He preyed on the weak and vulnerable. I’m glad you sent this post just so I could see the deceit.”

COMMON OBJECTION:

“But wait, Todd White is doing miracles, so he must be of God!”

RESPONSE:

Let’s face it: Healings or supposed healings/miracles get a lot of attention because there are so many sign seekers – not Savior seekers.

“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

The greatest sign of God is “the sign of Jonah” which is the salvation of God wrought by the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:19, 21). The greatest benefit of Christ’s salvation is men coming to repentance, receiving salvation from the Savior, the ultimate healing!

Satan himself can do signs and wonders (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12). Yet men are insistent to “bid Godspeed” to a false prophet they have created a soul tie with (2 John 10-11).

Todd White is clearly lying against the LORD. He is plainly one of the “MANY false prophets” Jesus and His holy apostles repeatedly warned us about (Matthew 7:15; 24:11, 24; 1 John 4:1-3, etc.). Todd White is completely false, a false prophet who is being used of Satan to bring together the prophesied one world religion/ecumenism of which the antichrist Catholic church is the center. Todd White and other supposed Christian leaders who are involved are not and have no intention of calling Catholics to be saved. THAT is the whole issue and sin. These people, claiming to be representing Christ, are mixing with, approving, and condoning unsaved religious pagans without communicating the saving Gospel to them. Hatred! They are bidding Godspeed to antichrists which Scripture forbids and informs us that we ourselves are under divine judgment for doing this (2 John 7-11). As you will see coming out of his own mouth in a video posted below, Todd White denies the cardinal biblical revelation of the divinity of Jesus Christ who is Emmanuel – GOD with us! (Isaiah 9:6-7; Matthew 1:23; 1 Timothy 3:16) Check out and share this page and watch the videos at bottom and you will see and hear him for yourself. Devil agent exposed!

“But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we. 13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.” 2 Corinthians 11:12-15

A DIVINE COMMAND: “Now I beseech you, brethren, MARK THEM which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. 18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.” Romans 16:17-18

WOLF WORSHIPPERS ARE FIRST AND FOREMOST SELF-WORSHIPPING COUNTERFEITS WHO COULD CARE LESS HOW MANY SOULS THEIR CELEBRITY WOLF IS LEADING TO HELL. ALL THEY CARE ABOUT IS THE SENSUAL THRILL THEY FEEL IN WORSHIPPING THEIR DEMON-POSSESSED FALSE PROPHET WHO TELLS THEM WHAT THEY LIKE TO HEAR!

The question is not whether Todd White makes YOU feel good – Because Christ’s kingdom is about JESUS and not about YOU! Jesus didn’t come to make you feel good but to save you from your sins (Matthew 1:21; John 1:29, etc.).

That’s the problem: Your life is about YOU instead of Jesus (Philippians 3:17-21). Repent!

ATTN: WHO DO YOU LOVE MORE – JESUS OR TODD WHITE?

“Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” Exodus 20:3

This is NOT a personal attack on anyone but rather a deep concern for the protection of Christ’s body against wolves who have entered in among us and are carrying away disciples after them – stealing the affections of their hearts away from Christ who alone is worthy of those affections. Read Colossians 1 and 2.

There is no intention to hurt anyone. If the truth hurts and someone refuses to repent – they have hurt themselves. Speaking biblical truth is not a sin. In fact, to speak truth is a divine command for which we shall all give personal account. See 2 Timothy 4:1-4

A firestorm of attack has come as a direct result of examining the doctrine of Todd White which only confirms that the LORD led me to post this. Here’s one of the typical responses from those who have sold their souls out to this man and his ministry:

“But wait, Todd White goes out on the streets and he’s producing good fruit! How dare you question him!”

First off, WHY is Todd White making a side show out of these supposed healings? Oh and why not pray for other types of healings instead of the old standby gimmick of legs supposedly growing out? (more on that in a moment)

If his ministry is all about Jesus, why not preach the Gospel primarily to see heart healings? (Luke 4:18) Why draw attention to self by the sideshow? Seems to me that the ministries which emphasize healing are about bringing attention to self instead of the nail scarred risen Savior.

A human CAN go to Heaven with a broken, un-healed body, but not with an un-healed soul. The primary healing the LORD wants to do is in the hearts of men. Paul informed us that Jesus came to “save sinners” (1 Timothy 1:15). My doubt and concern is not in healing or miracles but rather how some use these things to bring attention to themselves and to avoid persecution for preaching the cross (1 Corinthians 1:18).

Also, the Jehovah Witnesses, the Mormons, Catholics, and most other Antichrist cults do good works too and are as sure for hell as if they were already there. But what is their doctrine?

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

JESUS CALLED US TO GO PREACH HIS GOSPEL PRIMARILY SO HE CAN HEAL HEARTS BY SAVING SOULS, SECURING THEM FOR ETERNITY  … NOT SO WE CAN BRING THE CAMERAS AND CREATE A SIDE SHOW THAT PROMOTES US!!!!

The intention of these type of gimmick ministries seems to be to convince a gullible prey (audience) that the “man of the hour” surely must be an anointed vessel above others, after all, people are getting healed. Right? More on that in a moment.

WHO died for your sins friend?

MANY WHO CLAIM TO BE SAVED ARE VERY QUICK TO THROW CHRIST TO THE WIND ANY TIME SOME NEW PIED PIPER COMES ALONG. THESE ARE NOT TRULY ROOTED AND GROUNDED IN CHRIST AND THEREFORE HIS WRITTEN WORD MEANS LITTLE TO NOTHING TO THEM. IT’S NOT THEIR FINAL AUTHORITY WHICH IS CLEAR PROOF THAT THEY DO NOT KNOW HIM (JOHN 5:39-40, 44; 8:47; 2 TIMOTHY 2:15; 3:16-17; 2 PETER 1:16-21, ETC.).

WHEN deceivers use the term “don’t put God in a box” what they are really saying is “Don’t listen to how God described Himself, His will, and His attributes, etc. Don’t listen to HIS own Word, let me show you an alternative, something that contradicts His Word!” Apostasy! Run! See Acts 17:10-11; Psalms 33:11; 119:89, 105; John 8:47; Romans 3:4; 2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:19-21.

Who does the Bible say is leading God’s people astray?

“For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.” Isaiah 9:16 

Didn’t Jesus warn of the same thing?

“And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. … For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.” Matthew 24:11, 24

Concerning every leader, we must ask and examine whether or not they are teaching the original Gospel (Acts 17:11; 1 john 4:1, etc.). The LORD’s apostle Paul told us that any man on earth who is teaching ANYTHING except the original Gospel, is “accursed.” Listen closely:

“I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. 10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.” Galatians 1:6-10

Jesus Came and Died Because You are Wicked, NOT Because You are so Wonderful! ANY PERSON WHO BELIEVES THAT THE WHOLE REASON THE SON OF GOD CAME AND DIED ON THE CROSS WAS BECAUSE THEY ARE SO VALUABLE AND WONDERFUL, IS COMPLETELY DECEIVED. JESUS CAME AND DIED BECAUSE YOU ARE WICKED, AND HE IS SO MERCIFUL AND NOT BECAUSE YOU ARE SO WONDERFUL!

“Christ Jesus came into the world to save SINNERS.” 1 Timothy 1:15 

GOD DOES NOT NEED US – WE NEED HIM.

According to the Gospel record, God’s “great love” and mercy sure are unfathomable in light of His utter holiness and our utterly sinful depravity. Therefore, to over emphasize the value of fallen man while refusing to preach the biblical doctrine of fallen mankind – corrupt and utterly wicked and undeserving of anything except divine judgment, is to elevate sinful man and demote the Father and the only begotten Son of God. Read Ephesians 2:1-9.

The Bible magnifies the exceeding sinfulness of fallen men and contrasts it with the great mercy of God (Romans 3, 7; Ephesians 2:1-9, etc.). To present the message of the gospel in any other fashion is to be guilty of conveying a distorted picture of the blessed and saving Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The LORD was merciful enough to save His fallen human race and now we have some among us perverting the Gospel to make it look like man is the hero and so wonderful. This is a subtle deception saints. Beware. Nothing could be further from the truth and this is the direct influence of “the spirit of antichrist” which seeks to rob the glory of the LORD Jesus (Colossians 2:4, 8-10, 18-19; 1 John 4:1-6).
People are turning it around on God and making it look like He’s blessed to have us. Wow. Blasphemous, antichrist assertion.

“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;).” Ephesians 2:1-5

THE FACT THAT THOSE WHO ARE TRULY CHRIST ‘S OR HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS DOES NOTHING TO NEGATE THE GREAT LOVE HE HAD FOR US WHILE WE WERE YET SINNERS ….. THE EMPHASIS OF THE GOSPEL IS THAT WE ARE WICKED AND GOD IS EXTREMELY MERCIFUL, CHRIST ALONE BEING MAGNIFIED AGAINST THE BACKDROP OF OUR OWN DEPRAVITY.

THE GOSPEL IS ABOUT CHRIST, NOT US! IF YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND THIS PARAMOUNT BIBLICAL TRUTH, GOD IS CALLING YOU TO REPENT AND BE SAVED (COLOSSIANS 1-2).

TODD WHITE IS NOT TEACHING THE BIBLICAL DOCTRINE OF THE DEPRAVITY OF MANKIND, AND IN LIGHT OF THE FACT THAT HE’S TEACHING AS IF IT’S A CARDINAL DOCTRINE THAT MAN IS WONDERFUL, HE’S PAINTING A FALSE PICTURE WHICH IS FALSE TEACHING.

The Bible never says you or I are wonderful but it does say JESUS is “Wonderful” …. “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. 7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.” Isaiah 9:6-7

The whole message of the Gospel is all about how “wonderful” Jesus is and how “wretched” we were and are without Him (John 15:5; Romans 7:28, 24).

Christ is the supreme goal and subject of all of Holy Scripture and not mere sinful man. Man is never enthroned in Scripture. It’s always God’s mercy reaching down to fallen mankind and so to emphasize man’s value while never mentioning his utter depravity is false.

To those who would still defend Todd White

You are misapplying Scripture and as a novice should be learning and not speaking. “Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.” (1 Timothy 1:7)

Todd White is teaching a falsehood. If you don’t see that, it’s further proof you do not have a good foundation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ which is about JESUS and not us. The testimony of the Gospel from Scripture is that fallen men are paupers who are hopeless and helpless and in utter need of the mercy of God given us in Christ alone. White is teaching that Jesus came simply because WE are so valuable. Ridiculous and heretical. He never mentions the doctrine of fallen mankind revealed in Holy Scripture and how merciful God was to show us compassion and send His only begotten Son to save us. Therefore he’s preaching a falsehood.

Titus 3

“For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.

4 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,

5 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;

7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

8 This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.” Titus 3

Romans 3

But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;

22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:

23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.

28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.”

“Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:” Colossians 2:8-10 

We are complete in Christ, not in our own supposed value.

There are concerns with Todd White’s teachings, practices, and connections, etc. Todd White is a heretic who denies the divinity of Jesus Christ and many other errors. First off, Todd White seems to be a novice (1 Timothy 3:6). He’s experienced but what is that experience? Is it biblical? If not, it’s erroneous. Though there are kingdom truths he’s preaching and perhaps to a degree walking in, there’s something off due to his connection and submission to men who are under the control of Satan (the NAR movement wolves). White is not grounded in the doctrines of Holy Scripture. If he were, these heresies would not be coming from his mouth. Please pray for White’s heart to turn to the LORD fully and for deliverance. He is misleading others and so this warning must without apology be rendered to protect Christ’s sheep.

“These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.” Acts 17:11

“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try (test) the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” 1 John 4:1

Todd White and other false prophets are under the control of “the spirit of antichrist” and we know that because they are turning it all around to put us (mere sinful man) on the throne and by doing so dethrone Christ! They are not upholding the HEAD who is Christ!

“Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, 19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.” Colossians 2:18-19

Reader: WHO died for your sins?

Many have given their souls to false prophets who are possessed by devils which draw them to that very altar. “Idol shepherds” is what they are called in Zechariah 11:17. Where there’s a soul tie ….. that is the work of an evil spirit. The Holy Spirit always bonds us to Christ. John 16:13-14 and Colossians 2:18-19

It is a rejection of Christ to support His enemies instead of obeying Him by exposing them (Matthew 12:30; 2 Corinthians 11:12-15; Philippians 3:18-19; 2 John 10-11; Jude 3-4, etc.). Hell awaits. Repent now.

Some people don’t realize that their love for their favorite wolf in sheep’s clothing far outweighs their love for God. Defend His enemy and you become Christ’s enemy (2 John 10-11).

THERE are some serious concerns about the doctrinal stance of Todd White who is teaching the classic deception that man is valuable and that’s why Jesus came. This falsity subtly elevates and enthrones man and consequently dethrones Christ, the glorious and only Savior …. Especially in the absence of Todd White even mentioning the many Scriptures – Bible truth – concerning the corruption, depravity, and utter sinfulness of fallen mankind and how God is so merciful that He sent His only begotten Son “while we were yet sinners.” (Romans 5:6-8) In the true and original Gospel, the LORD is seen as the One reaching down to undeserving sinful men. The narrative is not that man is so valuable that God came to save him. This is a serious delusionment.

“How true! God saved us not because we are valuable and wonderful but because He is merciful and full of compassion and we need a Savior who can save us and deliver us from our sin. Personally, I need God every minute of my life. Those who perverted His Word are antichrist.” E.

We deserve nothing at all except condemnation and punishment from God. Anyone who doesn’t understand this foundational and cardinal Bible truth is bound to be misled. There is “NO good thing” in us except Christ!

“For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.” Romans 7:18

“Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? 5 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; 6 Who will render to every man according to his deeds: 7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life: 8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath …” Romans 2:4-8 

“Todd White is popular because he teaches the FALSE “feel good” doctrine. People no longer want to hear about repentance, sin and carrying a cross. There is really nothing about this man that appeals to me, not judging him by appearance, but what I’ve heard him preach.” Maria Valdez

“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; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” 2 Timothy 4:2-4

Birds of a Feather DO Flock Together

Todd White is associated with Bill Johnson, pastor of Bethel Church, who is a known wolf and false teacher. Bill Johnson – False Teacher

Bill JohnsonChuck Pierce, Jezebel false prophetess Heidi Baker and false apostle C. Peter Wagner and bazaar lunatic Todd Bentley and  Bob Jones and Patricia King and many other wolves are a part of the NAR Movement (NAR = New Apostolic Reformation).

The Holy Spirit, through the prophet Ezekiel, shows us that there is “a conspiracy” among the false prophets of every day. Listen close:

“There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst thereof. 26 Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them. 27 Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain.” Ezekiel 22:25-27

Ever heard the saying “Birds of a feather flock together”? Well it’s truth actually and the very important passage above and other show just such.

You will know when Todd White repents–when he comes out from among the wolves he’s aligned with in open repentance and openly denounces his error (2 Corinthians 6:17; Romans 16:17-18; 2 John 7-11, etc.).

“MANY false prophets” are obvious today in that their ministry enterprises seem to feature THEM and not Christ (Matthew 7:15; 1 John 4:1). Is this not obvious in that many of them have numerous modeling pictures to sell their brand, their wares with? No, pictures, in and of themselves, are not a sin and yet, it seems odd when you see someone who is feigning to be representing Christ who has expensive, elaborate, modeling pictures and a glamorous, unduly expensive wardrobe. That indicates that the star of the show is them and that Jesus is not being upheld or lifted up but rather they are (Colossians 2:18-19).

Clown outfits are always a red flag. sorry saints, god forgive and correct me here if i am wrong – yet Todd White’s garb is a concern. Anyone who needs to dress up – no matter the style of their garb – should be a concern.

Jesus warned:

“Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts;” Luke 20:46

Was Jesus saying that someone who wears a long robe is automatically determined to be false, OR was He giving us a deeper principle? Was the Son of God not warning us here to watch out for (be discerning concerning) those pretending to represent Him who wear ANY sort/style of costume? I believe so …. watch this:

“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.” Matthew 7:15 

Marc Roy writes: “I’ve been exposing Todd White for a long time. I’ve been hated a lot for it, but I don;’t care, for his “gospel” doesn’t match the word of God. Thanks for exposing the truth. People tend to worship these fake ‘love preachers.’ Its very sad to see. We’re always accused of being hateful when we expose a deceiver. Like I often say concerning them who worship men like Todd White. ‘If you don’t know the AUTHENTIC, you won’t spot the counterfeit.

Marc Roy is correct:

He is exactly right and that love for these mere sinful men trumps their love for Jesus and so they lash out against anyone who dares question their idol.

Observations:

FIRESTORM: That’s what just happened by merely examining and pointing out heresy with a mere man’s ministry. It’s obvious that some have more heart affection for a mere sinful man than they have for Christ. It’s utterly alarming how some who are right in our midst, seeming to love Jesus, will go after you if you dare question a mere man they’ve set their affection on ….. They attack the messenger then turn it around on the messenger for daring to answer their accusations. Christology

All good things must come to an end…. except for those who are going to share in the eternal glory of Jesus Christ!!!

The Curse of a Divided Heart and Blessing of a Whole Heart! [podcast]


Israel’s heart was divided. The solution.

Their heart is divided; now shall they be found faulty: he shall break down their altars, he shall spoil their images … 12  Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.” Hosea 10:2, 12 

King Asa: Tragic end of an otherwise obedient, fruitful, God-glorifying life….

Are you blessed or cursed?

“Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” Jeremiah 17:5

King Asa trusted the physicians and not the LORD and he paid dearly.

“And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to the LORD, but to the physicians.” 2 Chronicles 16:12

Feet speak of foundation. Without feet, physically we cannot stand. Without a sound foundation of truth, of God’s Word in our lives, we shall not stand. Read Matthew 7:19-29.

One writes notes the following about the meaning of feet in God’s Word:

“Why Are Feet Important in the Bible? Just as men and women stand upon their feet as the foundation of upright posture, Bible verses also use feet as a euphemism to represent a strong foundation in various circumstances. Feet are not referenced as we see them today, but they are used as symbols to represent greater metaphorical concepts, such as guidance or direction.

The feet represented something that was common to all people but used differently. For example, one of the most noted scripture texts involving feet is Psalm 119:105, ‘Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.’ This emphasizes how the feet are used to travel and traverse. Yet, without the word, the traveler is left walking in the dark without a known path.

Essentially, the feet are referenced as a critical part of life as walking was commonplace. We naturally travel where our feet lead us and the Bible verses use feet to represent a means of traveling through life itself. If we walk down a dark path, we are likely to stumble. If we walk down a holy path, we are sure to please God. All of this is facilitated symbolically by the feet.”

The foundation truth we learn in God’s Word and obedience to it determines the direction of our lives.

“As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: 7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.” Colossians 2:6-7

Becoming Rooted and Grounded in Christ

Like Asa, many today trust the counsel of mere men, such as doctors and not God. This doesn’t mean going to a doctor is a sin and yet, the true disciple will primarily trust and obey and be led of the LORD, not men.

But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” Hebrews 11:6

Read Hebrews 3-4 prayerfully for the eternal danger of having “an evil heart of unbelief” AFTER being saved. Repentance required.

“They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak.” Psalms 12:2 

Got depression? Are you seeking the LORD in true repentance whereby He will grant you great joy? (Psalms 51; 2 Timothy 1:7) Or, are you seeking out and trusting the mere human, the finite pundits of this fleeting world?

“But ye are forgers of lies, ye are all physicians of no value.” Job 13:4

Those who trust human physicians and not the Great Physician, are cursed, not blessed. Their faith in mere men reveals their utter rebellion.

“See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.” Jeremiah 1:10 

2 Chronicles 15:17 – Upon becoming king in Judah, Asa, having inherited an idolatrous, lukewarm people, system… he began to command that…

  • The people do that which is right in God’s eyes (2 Chronicles 14:2)
  • That all idolatrous altars we torn down (2 Chronicles 14:3)
  • That God’s people seek His face (2 Chronicles 14:4)
  • That idol altars in the cities of Judah be removed – “and the kingdom was quiet before him” (2 Chronicles 14:5)  ….. Proverbs 1:33
  • Fenced cities be built …. so the land could be at rest, at peace, and not fear the enemy (2 Chronicles 14:6)
  • The people be involved in building fenced, walled, protected cities – “Therefore he said unto Judah, Let us build these cities, and make about them walls, and towers, gates, and bars, while the land is yet before us; because we have sought the LORD our God, we have sought him, and he hath given us rest on every side. So they built and prospered.” (2 Chronicles 14:7)  ……  1 Chron 16:11
  • Great military be built (2 Chronicles 14:8)

“The LORD is with you, while ye be with him; and IFFFF ye seek him, he will be found of you; but IF ye forsake him, he will forsake you.” 2 Chronicles 15:2

“But the high places were not taken away out of Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.” 2 Chronicles 15:17

“Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear: 21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee. 22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.” Hebrews 11:20-22 

“The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” Psalms 9:17 

“Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.” Psalms 50:22 

“Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.” 2 Chronicles 20:20 

God blesses those who trust Him and curses, removes His blessings from those who once trusted Him and yet now have forgotten Him. When we willingly offer ourselves as living sacrifices to the LORD our God, He avenges us of all our enemies (Judges 5:2) …. “But IF thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies, and an adversary unto thine adversaries.” (Exodus 23:22) 

“WHEN” does God avenge us of our enemies? “WHEN” does God judge our enemies?

“Praise ye the LORD for the avenging of Israel, WHEN the people willingly offered themselves.” Judges 5:2

When we offer our lives a living sacrifice unto the LORD – that is, we simply surrender this life to Him – the subduing of our enemies begins.

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” Romans 12:1-2

Asa reigned as king in Judah for 39 years (2 Chronicles 14-16).

In his final days, after obeying God and bringing much needed reform to the people of God, Asa forgot the LORD, and had grown cold in his faith and was therefore cursed with a divided heart.

All those who trust mere men, just because they have a white coat on and are called “doctor”, are going to die as did king Asa who trusted in earthly physicians, instead of the Great Physician! Repent now sinner.

“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. 7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.” Proverbs 3:5-7

Are you a pessimistic pansy or an optimistic overcomer? Are you like the 10 spies or the 2 who entered the promised land while the 10 sad sack whiners were shut out? “The righteous are bold as a lion.” (Proverbs 28:1) Jesus asks “WHERE is your faith?” (Luke 8:25) Repenting for real and putting all your trust in the LORD is essential – and no one will be in the promise land of Heaven without sound, solid faith in God. “Without faith it is impossible to please him.” (Hebrews 11:6). “Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” (Jeremiah 17:5) 

Read Revelation 2-3.

Remember the woman Jesus, the Great Divine Physician made whole of her issue who had previously spent all she had on human physicians?

“And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, 26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, 27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment. 28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole. 29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague. 30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him (accessed by faith in Him), turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes? 31 And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me? 32 And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing. 33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth. 34 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith (in God not men) hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.” Mark 5:25-34 

You claim to be trusting God but you take a mood drug? I don’t think so. MOOD DRUGS ARE FOR THE WICKED UNBELIEVERS. PERIOD. REPENT.

When a person resorts to using a drug to uplift their mood, they are loving and believing the world more than God, forfeiting the blessing of God for a cheap substitute, and manifesting their contempt for the LORD, their unbelief. A born again, presently abiding disciple of Jesus has all the fruit of the Holy Spirit which include, “Love, joy, peace…” (Galatians 5:22-23) God gives His people “power… love, and a sound mind.” (2 Timothy 1:7) God’s Word has the answer to “ALL things that pertain unto life and godliness” and that specifically includes a “sound mind.” (2 Peter 1:3-4) Holy Scripture specifically uses the terms “sound mind” and “sound heart” which come only from learning and adhering to “sound doctrine.”

We live in a fallen world and were born in sin. Via the things that have happened to us and that we ourselves have perpetrated on others, fragmentation of our hearts has occurred. Only One can make us whole.

“And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, 18 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 4:17-19

“And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.” 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24

“He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.” Psalms 147:3

Counting it all Joy

“My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; 3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. 4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. 5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. 6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. 7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. 8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” James 1:2-8

Through the trials we face in this life, we must learn to “count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations”, trust God not men, ask for and rely on His wisdom and not waver, but rather finished our course trusting and walking with Christ to the end of our lives.

“I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:” 2 Timothy 4:7

“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. 11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: 12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” Hebrews 6:10-12

The Whole Heart

“And all Judah rejoiced at the oath: for they had sworn with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them: and the LORD gave them rest round about.” 2 Chronicles 15:15

The result of seeking the LORD with a whole heart is that He gives us “rest round about.”

“But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.” Proverbs 1:33

9 Times in the book of Psalms the words “Whole Heart” appear. Here’s the first 3 of that collection:

“I will praise thee, O LORD, with my WHOLE HEART; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.” Psalms 9:1

“Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my WHOLE HEART, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.” Psalms 111:1

“Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the WHOLE HEART.” Psalms 119:2

PRAYER: Dear heavenly Father, I have sinned against You by not wholly trusting You nor sought You with my whole heart. Here and now I confess this for the evil sin of unbelief and rebellion that it is and ask You to please forgive me now in the name of Jesus. Please wash me afresh from all my sins with the precious blood of Jesus Christ. Also please make my heart whole and increase and fill me with Your faith Father, and cause me to trust You will all of my heart, no matter what. I love You my dear LORD. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Fresh Start with God

“Hi Todd. I just want to make sure that when I’m talking about salvation but I am being biblically correct. I don’t believe in once saved always saved. While I believe God is always willing to forgive and restore the backslider. I do believe that a person can choose to turn away from God and go back to living a life of sin they’re for forfeiting their eternal life. Any correction would be greatly appreciated. In Christ. Andrea”

“NEVER take a Vacation from God” [podcast]


God’s Word teaches us to be diligent in knowing and following Christ – even when the word diligent is not used.

Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually.” 1 Chronicles 16:11

Make the deliberate decision to “set…

“Now set your heart and your soul to seek the Lord your God; arise therefore, and build ye the sanctuary of the Lord God, to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the holy vessels of God, into the house that is to be built to the name of the Lord.”  1 Chronicles 22:19

“Don’t you EVER take a vacation from God!” said my first pastor.

This beloved  brother knew exactly what happens when the disciple relaxes in his seeking of the LORD. Think foolish virgins. The result can be deadly, irrevocably.

He was dead on in this warning. Give the flesh an inch and it will take a mile, right?

Have you ever slipped backward? If so, you know it started with just not reading God’s Word one day. That one day turned into two, three…. Right?

Never must this happen. The war is won in the now. You must “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour” (1 Peter 5:8).

“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” James 4:7

God requires that we “give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall” (2 Peter 1:10).

It’s only those who remain built up in Christ like the wise virgins of Jesus’ parable, who “keep” themselves “in the love of God” who are not going to fall away.

“But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, 21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. … Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, 25 To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.” Jude 20-25

Jesus warns:

“Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Matthew 26:41

How did this kind of wisdom get lost from us beloved of God?

The disciple must get out ahead of the flesh. He must be one step ahead – knowing by testimony of the Word and by personal experience that there is “NO good thing” in us other than Jesus (Romans 7:18). This is exactly why Paul also said things like:

“I die daily.” 1 Corinthians 15:31

“But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.” 1 Corinthians 9:27

Exhorting the sheep of Christ, one pastor said:

“Have fun this summer.  Enjoy the outdoors. Travel to see friends and family. Explore the world.  Just don’t take a vacation from God.  He loves you more than you can imagine and wants to keep refilling your sack with his awesome gifts so that you can keep sharing them with others in your life!”

“The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul: but it is abomination to fools to depart from evil.” Proverbs 13:19

Various Quotes on the Importance of Diligence

“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.”Calvin Coolidge

“But I never could have done what I have done, without the habits of punctuality, order, and diligence…”―Charles Dickens

“Prefer diligence before idleness, unless you esteem rust above brightness.”―Plato

“Diligence is the mother of good fortune.”Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra

“Amateurs look for inspiration; the rest of us just get up and go to work.”―Chuck Close

“If he [Thomas Edison] had a needle to find in a haystack, he would not stop to reason where it was most likely to be, but would proceed at once with the feverish diligence of a bee, to examine straw after straw until he found the object of his search.”―Nikola Tesla

“Laziness looks at excuses as something to treasure while diligence always focuses on excuses as an inconvenience to be overcome.”Dr. Lucas D.  Shallua

“The three great essentials to achieve anything worthwhile are, first, hard work; second, stick-to-itiveness; third, common sense.”―Thomas Alva Edison

“That which ordinary men are fit for, I am qualified in, and the best of me is diligence.”William Shakespeare

“Active valour may often be the present of nature; but such patient diligence can be the fruit only of habit and discipline.”―Edward Gibbon

“Diligence overcomes difficulties; sloth makes them.”―Benjamin Franklin

“The slothful man saith, There is a lion in the way; a lion is in the streets.” Proverbs 26:13

In all labour there is profit: but the talk of the lips tendeth only to penury.” Proverbs 14:23

“Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;” 1 Peter 1:13

“Wherefore – Having such encouragement. Gird up the loins of your mind – As persons in the eastern countries were wont, in travelling or running, to gird up their long garments, so gather ye up all your thoughts and affections, and keep your mind always disencumbered and prepared to run the race which is set before you. Be watchful – As servants that wait for their Lord. And hope to the end – Maintain a full expectation of all the grace – The blessings flowing from the free favour of God. Which shall be brought to you at the final revelation of Jesus Christ – And which are now brought to you by the revelation of Christ in you.“―John Wesley

“Slothfulness (laziness, lack of diligence) casteth into a deep sleep; and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.” Proverbs 19:15

Power Words Power our Lives!

Remember those power words your parents instilled in your growing up? Remember things like “readers are leaders”? How about “The early bird gets the worm”?

What are some of the good words your beloved parents instilled in you as a child that live on in your mind and heart daily?

My beloved father taught us five to “always be consistent.” Oh and these weren’t just words. Oh no. My brother and I are only 13 months apart and so when we started playing football at about 6 years old, my parents set us down and looked us in the eyes and said “If you start this football season, you WILL finish. We require it of you, so count the cost.”

Nothing replaces consistency. Say it out loud with me right now beloved of God – CONSISTENCY.

While we’re on this topic, I hope you won’t mind me saying that it is befuddling to see how people start doing something that works and then quit – from a work out program to a lifestyle change in eating and most devastatingly, serving God then quitting.

Wait a minute, you were doing _______ and it was working, was blessing you, and then you quit?

Hebrews 10:32-39

“But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions;
33  Partly, whilst ye were made a gazingstock both by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, whilst ye became companions of them that were so used.
34  For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.
35  Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.
36  For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.
37  For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.
38  Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.
39  But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.”

Hebrews 6:9-12

“But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak. 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. 11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: 12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.”

62 times the words “diligent,” “diligence,” and “diligently” appear in Holy Scripture.

Each time we read these words, they pertain specifically to serving God “diligently” with “diligence.”

“Diligent”

“He becometh poor (spiritually) that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich (spiritually).” Proverbs 10:4


“Diligence”

“Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” Proverbs 4:23


“Diligently”

appears 37 times in God’s Word

“But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that DILIGENTLY seek him.” Hebrews 11:6

“Looking DILIGENTLY lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;” Hebrews 12:15

“Keep your dukes up!”

Growing up boxing, from home training to being on a golden gloves team in high school, the command of the coaches was always and repeatedly “Keep your dukes up!”

Those who drop their dukes, their hands from covering their face, get hit, get knocked out.

Another sign on the wall of that boxing facility was: “When the going gets tough, the tough get going.” unknown

We are going to go through what Jesus foretold:

“For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.” Matthew 24:21-22 

YOUR PRAYER: Holy Father, in the name of Jesus I come to You now. Please forgive my sins of self-idolatry, slothfulness, and spiritual adultery.
