DID JESUS have a Vehicle, Bed, or a Bunch of Money?

Beware of those who want to fabricate the unfounded, erroneous idea that Jesus was rich in this world when He walked the earth. This they do in order to justify their own covetous greed for the things of this leading world. This clearly proves they are ungodly and hell bound (Ephesians 5:5-6).

Word of Faith Wolves have stated the following:

“Jesus was a rich man. He had to have been, in order to have supported his disciples and their families during his ministry.” T.D. Jakes

“God wants us to prosper financially, to have plenty of money, to fulfil the destiny He has laid out for us.” Joel Osteen

“Jesus had a nice house, a big house – big enough to have company stay the night with Him at the house. Let me show you His house. Go over to John the first chapter and I’ll show you His house. . . .Now, child of God, that’s a house big enough to have company stay the night in. There’s His house.” John Avanzini, “Believers Voice of Victory” program on TBN (20, January 1991).

“Jesus was handling big money because that treasurer He had was a thief. Now you can’t tell me that a ministry with a treasurer that’s a thief can operate on a few pennies. It took big money to operate that ministry because Judas was stealing out of that bag.” Avanzini on “Praise the Lord” program on TBN (15, September 1988).

“John 19 tells us that Jesus wore designer clothes. Well, what else you gonna call it? Designer clothes – that’s blasphemy. No, that’s what we call them today. I mean, you didn’t get the stuff He wore off the rack. It wasn’t a one-size-fits-all deal. No, this was custom stuff. It was the kind of a garment that kings and rich merchants wore. Kings and rich merchants wore that garment.” Avanzini, “Believers Voice of Victory” program on TBN (20, September 1991).

“The apostles were businessmen. They were rich men and had plenty of money. I’m going to show you that Jesus was a wealthy man, had plenty of money…” Fred Price

Joyce Meyer says: “You’re on the brink of a miracle. Go to the phone and give $1,000, $5,000, $10,000 and $1,000,000; go to the phone. God has a miracle waiting on your response.” / “The anointing is tangible; some of you should leave your televisions on TBN all night when you’re asleep to get the anointing.” / “This is inspiration, Oh! I heard you Holy Ghost! God is teaching you right now how to hear His voice. Go to your phone!” / “I believe that there are 10 people that need to match that $10,000. You’re believing for the greatest miracle of your life, then sow the greatest seed of your life.” / “You’re not going to your phone; you can hear me while you’re on the phone! Your miracle is waiting! Your deliverance is waiting!” / ” Why are all these heretic hunters trying to get people to know God by criticizing people by name?” / ” I won’t get to the text until you get to the phone.” (TBN, March 31, 2004)

Joyce Meyer says: “God said, ‘you can sow for whatever your soul lusteth after.’ Sow $2,000 …” (TBN, April 6, 2003)

Joyce Meyer says: “I just love to talk about your money. Let me be very clear. I want your money. I deserve it. This church deserves it.” (“An Empire Of Souls”, Page 35)

Does God’s Word Reveal that Jesus was Rich in His Earthly Life?

The most utilized “proof” text used by those who seek to promulgate the false notion that Jesus was a rich man while on earth, is found right here:

“For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.” 2 Corinthians 8:9

Jesus enjoyed His divine riches before He came to the earth where we all live – to die for us (Philippians 2). He came on a mission from His Father to die “for the sins of the whole world” (1 John 2:2). “While we were yet sinners” – “poor” – Jesus came and died and rose again to redeem us and make us “rich” with His “eternal salvation” (Romans 5:6-8; 2 Corinthians 5:19-21; Hebrews 5:9).

The sum total of the riches we have in Christ is the exact measure of how truly rich we are (Ephesians 1-2; Colossians 1-2).

While here on earth Christ made Himself of no reputation (Philippians 2), had no vehicle other than one he borrowed one time (Matthew 21:1-11), had to do a miracle to pay the taxes (Matthew 17:24-27), and had no where to lay His beautiful head at times (Luke 9:58)….. Jesus didn’t come to do anything except His Father’s will. Abundance of earthly riches would have hindered that mission.

The Cost of Following Jesus – You’ll be eternally glad you did it HIS way!

“And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest. 58 And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head. 59 And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. 60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God. 61 And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house. 62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.” Luke 9:57-62

Those who believe the false prosperity gospel are saying that Jesus came to the earth to make His people rich in this fleeting world instead of to die for the sins of the world. You are bearing false witness against the LORD who says “Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners” (1 Timothy 1:15). Prosperity

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all SPIRITUAL blessings in heavenly places in Christ:” Ephesians 1:3

Here in Ephesians 1:3, God’s Word informs us that Jesus came and died to give “SPIRITUAL blessings IN HEAVENLY (not earthly) places in Christ” and not to make us rich in this world. Such would contradict, would counteract His command that we love Him supremely and hate the greed and covetousness of this sinful, fallen world (Mark 10:23-25; Luke 12, 16, etc.).

DID JESUS AND HIS APOSTLES BECOME RICH IN THIS FLEETING WORLD BY DOING GOD’S WORK? Chapters and verses please? If not, HOW could any true child of God condone or defend such?

In our day, who best mirrors Jesus and His apostles? 1. The rich salaried preachers or, 2. The poor preachers …..

—GOD’S WORD INSTRUCTS US TO RUN FROM ANY COUNTERFEIT WHO EQUATES MONEY WITH KNOWING AND BEING BLESSED BY GOD (1 TIMOTHY 6:3-5 KJB). “men of corrupt minds … destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself“ (1 Timothy 6:3-5). SUCH A PERSON IS NOT SAVED. THEY HAVE NOT TRULY REPENTED AND THEREFORE ARE STILL SERVING SELF AND THEREFORE MONEY INSTEAD OF CHRIST (MATTHEW 6:19-24). THIS INCLUDES THE JOEL OSTEEN IDOLATERS AND ALL WORD OF FAITH WOLVES AND THEIR GULLIBLE, GREEDY, COUNTERFEIT FOLLOWERS (LUKE 12:15-21).
“HEARKEN, MY BELOVED BRETHREN, HATH NOT GOD CHOSEN THE POOR OF THIS WORLD RICH IN FAITH, AND HEIRS OF THE KINGDOM WHICH HE HATH PROMISED TO THEM THAT LOVE HIM?” JAMES 2:5

IF YOU SOMEHOW VAINLY BELIEVE THAT THE AMOUNT OF MONEY OR POSSESSIONS A PERSON POSSESSES HAS ANYTHING AT ALL TO DO WITH THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THAT PERSON, YOUR THINKING IS UTTERLY AMISS FRIEND.

JESUS SAYS THAT “A MAN’S LIFE CONSISTETH NOT IN THE ABUNDANCE OF THINGS HE POSSESSES” (LUKE 12:15). GOD LOOKS AT HOW RICH WE ARE TOWARD HIM. READ LUKE 12 AND 16 CLOSELY AND PRAYERFULLY AND YOU WILL BE VASTLY EDUCATED IN THE KING’S CRITERIA.

IF MONEY MAKES THE MAN OR MINISTRY, THE SON OF GOD IS INDICTED AS A FRAUD.

JESUS and His holy apostles did not seek or choose to be rich in this world: Therefore we know that any preacher who is rich in this world is not of Christ at all! Case Closed! …namely rich from money people gave for them to do GOD’s work! Wolves!

If you still want to defend this un-biblical notion that preachers are not supposed to humbly serve God, and His people, but rather serve themselves by using ministry money to live lavishly, here’s why: These greed-driven covetous wolves are only deceiving you – because you are in utter need of true repentance and to study God’s Word FOR YOURSELF as we are instructed to do – “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15).

Many are being told that Jesus was a rich man while on earth. Is that biblical?

WHILE ON THIS EARTH THAT HE CREATED, JESUS HAD NO VEHICLE (LUKE 19:28-35), HAD NOWHERE TO LAY HIS BEAUTIFUL HEAD (LUKE 9:58), AND HAD VERY LITTLE MONEY IN HIS POCKET OR ACCOUNT (LUKE 17:24-27).

Any questions? Beware of the Word of Faith beguilers who teach the lie that Jesus was rich while on earth to justify their greed and covetousness (2 Peter 2:1-3). Learn the above verses and share them with those who have been misled by the greed mongers to believe that Jesus was rich in His earthly life.

YES, there are rich (in this world) Christians (1 Timothy 6:17-19) and they are told to be very generous, but no man in ministry for Christ is to make himself rich in this world ON THE MONEY GIVEN FOR GOD’S WORK!

WHEN you see a man who is using GOD’s money – the money given to do the work of the GOSPEL – on himself, you’d better run now! That’s a devil!

What does it reveal to us that Jesus chose not to be rich in His earthly life? It proves that the Gospel can be spread with little money although money certainly is a tool, this is a rebuke to those who overemphasize money. They overemphasize money in order to justify their own greed, which makes them idolaters and unfit to enter the kingdom of Heaven (Ephesians 5:5-9).

People are now saying that Mary and Joseph were rich. To say such is to use no Scripture in context. They want to be able to chase, to greedily covet the riches of this world and are therefore willing to vainly attempt to impose things on Scripture, into the Word that simply are not there. There is no evidence that Joseph and Mary were rich. Laughable. Such is purely sinful human reasoning. There is simply no Scripture to establish that Joseph and Mary were rich nor that Christ or His apostles were rich in this world. So, the use of verses like Deuteronomy 8:18 are out of context. Paul addresses, and warns rich Christians and yet that does not prove Jesus, His parents, or the apostles were rich in this world (1 Timothy 6). Jesus gave severe warnings about being rich in this world (Mark 10:23,25, etc.). Greedy, covetous people are hell bound.

“For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. 6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.” Ephesians 5:5-6

To teach that Jesus was rich in His earthly life is a technique, a strategy or scam perpetrated by those who want to make merchandise of the gullible (biblically illiterate).

“But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. ²And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. ³And through covetousness shall they with feigned words MAKE MERCHANDISE OF YOU: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their DAMNATION slumbereth not.” 2 Peter 2:1-3

The Word of Faith wolves are teaching that Jesus was rich on earth to justify being rich by fleecing the flock for their own lavish greed and wealth (2 Peter 2:1-3). Wolves teach that Jesus was rich in His life on earth in order to justify their own lavish riches and to dangle the carrot of enticement to the covetous, greedy-hearted masses. Wolf Exposé | Word of Faith Detox (My Personal Testimony on Audio)

ACCORDING TO JESUS, GREEDY HOARDERS ARE IDOLATERS Are AS SURE FOR HELL AS IF THEY WERE ALREADY THERE.

“For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. ⁶Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God (eternal judgment) upon the children of disobedience. ⁷Be not ye therefore partakers with them.” Ephesians 5:5-7

Is having a car sin? No. Yet, “excess” is sin in the eyes of a holy God and clearly demonstrates that one is not laying down his life in this fleeting world.

“Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.” Matthew 23:25

Compare your life with the earliest believers whom when the LORD saved them, they liquidated and gave to those Christians in need (Acts 2:44-45; 4:32-35).

Jesus and His apostles often warned against the many dangers of coveting earthly riches. Here’s a mere sampling:

“And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! 24 And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God! 25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.” Mark 10:23-25

“But godliness with contentment is great gain (riches). 7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. 9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. 10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. 11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.” 1 Timothy 6:6-11

PRAYER: Holy Father, I come to You now in the name of Jesus, asking You to forgive my sin of self-righteousness, self-dependence, self-idolatry, for not loving, worshipping, and obeying You supremely as the first love, the first priority of my life. Please forgive my sin of wasting the resources You put into my hands – by not supporting Your work. Please do a deeper work of circumcision in my heart and teach me to live the crucified life. In Jesus’ Name, amen.

MESSAGE RECEIVED:

“That is the perks for working for GOD. Exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think, Can you imagine what it would be like at retirement in Heaven?”

RESPONSE:

Please tell us where we see Jesus making Himself rich in this world? And, if not, how can we justify doing such ourselves? What did Jesus teach about earthly riches and how they can prevent eternal glory? – “And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! Mark 10:24 And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God! Mar 10:25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.” Mark 10:23-25

Also, please give us chapters and verses to prove that even one of Christ’s apostles made themself rich in this world. …. it’s time to truly repent, get into God’s Word for yourself, lay down your life in this world and follow Jesus.

Who is the man who has nothing in this world yet “great riches” awaiting him in glory?

Lay Up For Yourselves Treasures in Heaven [podcast]

“LAY UP FOR YOURSELVES”

The only wealth that will last, forever, is that which is gained by obeying God in this life – thereby laying up treasure in Heaven.

Money Has Wings

“Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom. Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.” Proverbs 23:4-5

Instruction: “Labour not to be rich” v4
Instruction: “cease from thine own wisdom” v4
Question?: “Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not?” v5
Wisdom to ponder: “for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven” v5

Note this phrase in v5 (please read carefully) – “riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.” Now watch this – “they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.” What does that mean? Simply, the way we spend our money on earth will testify about our lives on Judgment Day and we will thereby be rewarded or stripped of rewards or even kept out of the kingdom (Lk. 16:19-31; James 2:1-7; 5:1-6; etc.). The usage of our money is a direct reflection of the priorities of our hearts (Matt. 6:21).

Treasures In Heaven

IN previous generations, young men and women gave up their whole life of luxury in America to go to a foreign land to preach the Gospel of Christ. Today we have a generation of professing “Christians” who won’t so much as give up a penny to support the preaching of the Gospel of the glorious Savior they claim to be saved by.

How important is Christ and His Gospel to you? Jesus told us exactly how important we count Him and His Gospel….

People spend, waste money on every frivolity under Heaven and seldom lay up treasures in Heaven using their temporal coin (Matthew 6:19-21). Read Jesus’ teaching recorded in Luke 16.

Our LORD instructs us to lay up treasure, but in Heaven not here in this temporal world where the dollar will soon be obsolete, superseded by rewards earned during this earthly life.

“Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures (lots) in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:” Matthew 6:19-20

Saint of the Most High, are you going to look back in eternity and deeply regret the opportunities God gave you in this fleeting life that you passed up? – to bless another believer or to support the work of Christ and send forward eternal rewards?

“For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Matthew 6:21

WHERE are you laying up treasure?

Your investments into God’s kingdom work in this short life are truly safe, secure, life-giving, and eternal. No one can take them away.

DISCIPLE OF JESUS, Jesus Christ is all-knowing and sees everything and will reward every good deed or work done in His name and love.

“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

Tithing is not commanded under the New Testament. Yet giving and putting God first is commanded and is the privilege of the saints of Christ (Proverbs 3:9-10; Matthew 6:33; Luke 6:38).

“While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.” 2 Corinthians 4:18 Someone has rightly stated that covetousness and greed and the love of money is going to damn more souls than any other sin. Read Jesus’ parable of the rich fool and memorize Luke 12:15. See Luke 12:15-21.

Mission Mexico Update Part 34 [video]

Mexico Army Personnel Ministered to [podcast]

“Love this walk around ministry here in Mexico. Handed a fella a tract and about 3 minutes later I passed by him and he was still reading it.” Mark

Brother Mark is a studious, diligent disciple of Jesus. Diligently doing the ultimate mission for our Messiah which is eternal. Thank you for lifting our brother in prayer (Colossians 4:12).

Mission Mexico – This is brother in Christ Juan. After ministering to him he lit up and informed me that he is a born again Christian. He is now distributing the JESUS tract on a very busy street where his shop it (the one he owns). God is good. Satan is a liar. Jesus is coming. Let’s roll saints. More Mission Mexico updates here.

“You mentioned our prayers are golden with God. How true this is according to Revelation 5:8. They are ‘golden vials’ (prayers and praises). That go upward to heaven right to the Lord! Carried up to the throne of heaven. And are received as a sweet odour to God! If done out of a pure heart. Because we know He hears the prayers of the righteous (Proverbs 15:29). If we are clothed in humility, our prayers and praises will be a sweet-smelling aroma to our Lord Jesus!” Karen Cochran

Regrettably, most professing Christians will never love Jesus enough to give up this fleeting world for Heaven’s coming King (Luke 14:33; 17:33).

When asked if she desired Christians in the USA to lift her in prayer, Maria immediately responded in the affirmative. Thank you for lifting the people in Mexico in your prayer, right now if you wish to pause.

Last evening brother Mark and I met up again with the dear pharmacist man. Gave him a big hug, warmly interacted with him, and gave him a fresh supply of the JESUS tract to continue to distribute from his pharmacy which is on a very busy corner here in Mexico and has daily walk in and walk by traffic.

A few days ago…. TONIGHT …. Another 50-60 JESUS tracts distributed and God’s Word spoken to many. 99% reception rate. God is good. Jesus is coming. Let’s roll saints. Mission Mexico underway. Your prayers and support are vital.

The receptivity of the Mexican people to our LORD’s Gospel is staggering, utterly dumbfounding.

“Truthfully amazing. I don’t think we here in in America can even begin to comprehend what God is doing in the hearts of the Mexican people. The book of Acts is the closest thing we have to understanding. I just read Daniel 12:3 “and they that the turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.” Your and Mark’s lives in Christ are a shining testament to so many as you lead them to salvation and the righteousness only found in Christ.” Karen Cochran

Recently it was made known that a new batch of the JESUS tracts in Spanish was a need. A dear disciple of Christ funded that. God is good. 1,500 JESUS tracts! Done! appr 7,000 distributed thus far!

After the last newsletter, a dear sister in Christ jumped in and sent the money for us to print 1,500 more of the JESUS tract in Spanish. So now to date 9,000 have been printed during Mission Mexico. Appr 7,000 already distributed! 7,000 souls heard and read the Gospel of our LORD thus far and your prayers and support make this possible!

Jesus the Great High Priest

“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.

15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrew 4:14-16

God be praised for those who are financially supporting this outreach. We will continue to do with that which comes in. Here are some things that can be done….

More support to others doing ministry in the USA.

We support Allan Abayon, who is a sound disciple and now ministering in the Philippines.

More support for requested books by Jay, a chaplain who ministers to 800 inmates in Texas, on the border. He’s the brother who contacted me after he got a hold of one of the Authentic Disciple of Jesus books (Spanish) in the jail he ministers in. He loved it and asked for more. We’ve only sent him a few dozen as that’s all the money that was given for such…..

Roger (pictured below) is a brother in Christ and after we talked he took some JESUS tracts to distribute. Amen LORD. Roger was asked if he’d like Christians in the USA to lift him in prayer and he eagerly said “yes.” Would you like to pause now and lift up our brother in Christ to the Father in Jesus’ name?

Dear saints in Christ, thank you for agreeing that it is our privilege to help these beloved people, to take out of what GOD has put in our hand to help HIS work.

The Killing Power of the Holy Ghost with Judge Travis Bryan III [podcast]

“For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.” Romans 8:13

“The cross of Christ is the sweetest burden that I ever bore; it is such a burden as wings are to a bird, or sails to a ship, to carry me forward to my harbor.” Samuel Rutherford

Momentum in the power of the Holy Spirit comes from a continual perpetual downward dying motion, being then raised up reciprocally in the resurrection grace of Jesus Christ.

“The flesh loses its power over you when it is crucified. Christ’s power begins to reign. The worries and stress of this life leave. And you begin to have the peace that passes all understanding. Philippines 4:7 Amen! A crucified life! Hallelujah all praise to Jesus.” Karen Cochran

God’s plan for your life….here it is:

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20

The ministry has put together 3 volumes sure to deepen your life in Christ, in the crucified life. 3 volumes to boost your life in Christ, in the cross He commanded us to take up – and by which He raises us upward in His glorious power and grace (Luke 9:23-24).

The Cross is a Surrender Not a Struggle [podcast]

The Cross is a Surrender not a Struggle Seems apparent that the struggle comes with living in the flesh, from resisting the surrender. In contrast, “the peace of God which passeth all understanding” comes from walking in the Spirit with Christ (Psalms 119:165; Galatians 5:22-23; Philippians 4:7). On the cross…. “And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.” Luke 27:46 Then what happened? “He is not here: for HE IS RISEN, as he said. Come, see the place where the […]
