“And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine: 29 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.” Matthew 7:28-29

The scribes, the false leaders of Jesus’ day and our day, had/have no power. This was in contrast to the power Jesus walked in to declare His Gospel, the original Gospel!

If you aren’t flipping the proverbial apple carts by speaking the truth with holy conviction, you are not a man of truth who is walking in the power of the Holy Spirit and truth of God (Matthew 21; John 2).

In the Gospels with Jesus and in Acts with the apostles we see that when God is moving through the preaching of His Word, devils are stirred up, angered, and cast out. When Jesus preached, it was with divine authority and power and not like the lame false leaders of His day (Matthew 7:29). The same is true today.

HAVE YOU NOTICED THAT EACH GENERATION OF “PREACHERS” BECOMES INCREASINGLY LAME, FEMINIZED, BIBLICALLY-ILLITERATE? THEY SEEM TO BE INTENT UPON OUT-DOING THEIR PREDECESSORS in their apostate denigration of the Word of God.

“I have no tolerance for these soft peddling wolves. I’ve seen and heard enough over the years. Only the real uncompromising Gospel of Jesus Christ will do.” Barbara

“In case you’re confused: there is no half-naked, long-haired, rock-n-rolling, hip-hopping, rapping, honky-tonking, tattooed, beer-sipping, ecumenical, Marlboro-puffing, mamby-pamby, effeminate, and non-judgmental Jesus. There is only the pure, holy, and undefiled Son of God, whose eyes are as flames of fire and whose voice is the sound of many waters (Heb 7:26; Rev 1:14-15). He hates all iniquity and will smite the nations with the sword of His mouth (Heb 1:9; Rev 19:15, 21). His name is called the WORD OF GOD (Rev 19:13).” Britt Williams

“But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.” 2 Timothy 3:13

Watch this…. Watch what happens when the Word of God is preached with the power of Jesus….

“And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people. 24 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.” Matthew 4:23-24

As is evidenced by the lives and ministries of Jesus and His holy apostles on the pages of Holy Scripture, true disciples will boldly “PREACH (declare) the word” and not put it out there as if it’s a suggestion or apologize for it with no fear of God (2 Timothy 4:1-4, etc.). The LORD uses crucified vessels, therefore they are not self-serving nor do they fear mere men (1 Corinthians 2:2; Galatians 2:20; 6:14, etc.).

Most preachers today are full of themselves, cross-less, and Christ-denying and therefore lame.

Most in ministry positions are what can rightly be called “soft peddle pansies.” They are never heard preaching in the Spirit and holy fear of the LORD. They refuse to preach cardinal biblical doctrines such as hell, sin, repentance, holiness, the cross, and the return of Christ, etc. They are certainly never heard exposing, warning of the many false doctrines such as once saved always saved, eternal security, dispensationalism, calvinism, hebrew roots heresy, etc.

If what we’re preaching isn’t sending pharisees, jezebels, calvinists, eternal securists, and other tares scattering, we aren’t preaching the original Gospel, the Gospel Jesus and His apostles preached…. (Galatians 1:6-9).

The original Gospel was delivered by Christ and His holy apostles who were bold as a lion, baptized with the Holy Ghost, and full of the Word of God! They earnestly contended “for the faith once delivered to the saints” under the directly, anointing, and power of the Holy Ghost (Acts 10:38; Jude 3, etc.).

It’s past time for un-apologetic, in-your-face preaching! There are FAR too many patty cake pansies posing as pastors today. It takes Holy Ghost anointed, bone breaking preaching to cut through the darkness and depravity of men’s iniquitous hearts.

“Preach the Word.” 2 Timothy 4:2

WE must preach law, judgment, the cross, sin, repentance, and hell and STOP apologizing for it. Repent and God will grant you a spine and cause you to cease being a pansy – a self-serving moral coward.

As we read these words, quotes from men of old, as in the beloved John Wesley, we look around today and wonder where all these real preachers went. May God raise up men who truly fear Him and are therefore captive to no one except Him.

For the authentic follower of Jesus, who is the truth, it’s never “unity at the expense of truth” which is antichrist. The spirit of antichrist is behind the weak, Christ-denying, lame attempt to shut down truth because people are going to be offended. Repent now and follow Jesus before it’s too late.

IF you aren’t quoting and reading Holy Scripture (King James Bible) to your audience you have NO BUSINESS – NONE, ZERO – play acting like you’re ministering! Period! Cease now and step down now until you have genuinely repented and are so full of God and His Word that’s ALL that flows from your life and lips! (2 Timothy 2:15; 1 Peter 4:11)

Under the bless-ed weight of the true original Gospel, men are convicted, broken, and crushed to repentance! (Matthew 21:44; 1 Corinthians 1:18; 2:4; 2 Corinthians 4:20; James 4:8-10, etc.)

“No one ever went to hell for hearing the truth. For rejecting the truth, yes. For hearing the truth, never!” Phil Butler

Speaking of preaching God’s Word …..

Is your favorite preacher communicating Scripture like this (below) to warn you? OR, is the wolf tickling your ears? (2 Timothy 4:2-4)

“Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.” Revelation 2:10 

Weak men can never preach sinners and backsliders into the kingdom of Christ (Acts 1:8).

Evading truth, glossing over, whitewashing our sin is sure damnation (Proverbs 28:13).

SIN, we ALL have it to deal with. WHO will we love most-self or Jesus (Romans 6:16).

THE WHOLE OF SCRIPTURE reveals to us that ….IF you are not flipping hell bound religious hypocrites upside down – You are not preaching the pure Word of God empowered by the Holy Ghost of God!

Anointed preaching from true men of God always flips the gospel merchandising apple carts of the fraud-hireling wolves in our midst – just as it did in Jesus’ day! (Matthew 21; John 2, etc.)

GOD is calling for fearless, ax-to-the-root preaching (Matthew 3:7-10).

Fake Ministries are Everywhere: WHEN you hear people in “ministry” continue to hem haw and use words such as “I think,” etc., you should lose interest real quick. You know they are not in the Word and so you know it’s a fake ministry and they have no business pretending to do “ministry” for Jesus. “Preach the WORD.” (2 Timothy 4:2) We all have a Bible and so there’s no excuse and real kingdom ministry is simply putting forth God’s Word. Peter wrote: “If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles (written Word) of God;…Amen.” (1 Peter 4:11). God’s Word is the recording of the very “thoughts of HIS heart” and He’s not confused, amen? (Psalms 33:11; 1 Corinthians 14:33) Yet, the vast majority of “ministry” that goes on today is a lame, laughable excuse for kingdom ministry!

Many a false preacher is breathing hope into un-repentant sinners who are still dead in trespasses and sin! They are in a state of hell bound lukewarmness and the false preachers will come to the aid of them, “protecting” them from the truth spoken straight (Revelation 3:15-16). Beware saints. People don’t even know they need hope till they’ve been preached 6 foot under and have only one direction to look -UPWARD! The preaching of the Law and cross is to drive sinful men to repentance before a holy God! (Galatians 3:24; 1 Timothy 1:9-11, etc.). How shall they fall upon the mercy of God invested in Christ’s cross if they’ve never had the sharp sword of the Law preached to them – finding them undone in sin before a holy God who will soon judge and cast their eternal soul into the lake of fire?

HERE is exactly why you see people whining like moral cowards instead of repenting in this late hour…. when someone puts the truth out with directness. They are not enduring sound doctrine (2 Timothy 4:2-4)… and most of those complaining falsely claim to be ministers of Christ. Lame. Un-repentant.

Recently, I visited Alabama. While driving down the road I saw a billboard from a local fellowship that said “You can be free from your sin.” Amazing. Regrettably rare. It just goes to show you just how apostate the false modern church world is today where we rarely ever hear the paramount biblical truth that God is holy nor anything about sin which is why Jesus came (Matthew 1:21; John 1:29; 1 Timothy 1:15; Titus 2:11-14, etc.).

False preachers speak and operate as to please mere sinful men in order to get them to continue to patronize their church busine$$.

“And through covetousness shall they with feigned (fictitious) words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.” 2 Peter 2:3

“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

This world needs more table-flipping preachers like Jesus!

True men of God fearlessly endeavor to preach Christ and the whole counsel of His Word with no fear of mere sinful men (Galatians 1:10).

True men of God are known in that they preach in the fear of the LORD to please the LORD, not men (Galatians 1:10). The true remnant people of God fear, obey, and say what GOD says. They cater to the LORD, not sinful men (Galatians 1:10). Those who are run off by the pure truth of God’s Word were unrepentant counterfeits.

“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 1:10

Wolves entertain goats while true disciples feed sheep!

How many times did Jesus cleansed the temple during His 3.5 year ministry? What was the significance of His violent overthrow of false leaders and their iniquitous ways?

GOD will punish you with the wolves you endorse and support (2 John 10-11). Hint: If he’s afraid to hurt your feelings, he’s a wolf! Now repent and run! (2 Timothy 4:2-4; Galatians 1:10)

ARE you propping up a church busine$$ or are you supporting the fearless, unashamed preaching of the whole counsel of the kingdom of Christ? (Acts 20:20, 27; 28:31, etc.)

“The righteous are BOLD as a lion.” Proverbs 28:1

You know a man is from God when he fearlessly – with no tiptoeing – crushes and openly exposes lies, half-truths, heresies and Satan with bold, un-apologetic divinely-empowered Holy Ghost preaching! Far too many propped up compromised pansies posing as pastors! (Matthew 11:12) The first clue should be that they are using Satan’s gay rainbow light-in-the-loafers “bibles” instead of the King James Bible.

Jesus cleansed the temple twice and these are book ends with great significance …

Jesus Cleanses the Temple ….

Jesus cleansed the temple twice and these are book ends with great significance …
As an eternal memorial of His righteous and holy judgment against thieving and deceitful monetary practices perpetrated by greedy, self-serving wolves, the Son of God cleansed the temple at the very opening and closing of His ministry on earth (Matt. 21:12-17; Jn. 2:12-17). He violently overthrew the deceitful practices of those in leadership who were making merchandise of those who came to seek the LORD. Such deceit is a sure way of coming under His condemnation.

“And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence (get them out of here); make not my Father’s house an house of merchandise. And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up (ignited His holy wrath).” John 2:16-17

As soon as these things were removed, His power, praise, prosperity and healing blessings were reinstated among His people (Matt. 21:12-17). Jesus stated:

“It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.” Matthew 21:13

The unchanging God feels no different today than He did then concerning greed mongers and their deceitful practices in His name and among His people. Such deceivers are in the cross-hairs of His scope of holy judgment. As Christ cleansed the temple in His hour in the flesh, He desires to cleanse our hearts of all greed for fleeting gain, which has prevented in us the holy hunger for the true and eternal riches that only He can grant.

Soul Stealing

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

The vast majority of “churches” that meet in “church buildings” are simply and merely conducting “church services” where they entertain their prey. They are not equipping the saints for the work of the ministry and therefore discerned as being counterfeit (Ephesians 4:11-13). If they were, there would be salty disciples in their midst who go forth to minister Christ’s kingdom blessings where ever they went. Not even a trace of this transpiring in the apostate modern church world. Run. Run. Run.

“And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting (equipping, maturing) of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:” Ephesians 4:11-12

BIBLICAL QUESTION: Please post the reference to even 1 time where Jesus, John the Baptist, or any of the apostles of Christ ever entertained anyone. ….. BEWARE of the Goat Entertainers which is most pastors today – because they have a mortgage and salaries to pay!

WHEN Jesus, John the Baptist, and the apostles preached, they FULLY EXPECTED their audience to obey the Word. They were crucified men, given over to the will of the Father, and full of Heaven’s power and authority. Unlike those posing as Christ’s representatives today, they were absolutely fearless.

“The righteous are bold as a lion.” Proverbs 28:1

THAT is because they were imbued with Heaven’s authority and not just some wimpy preacher like we have today that have zero anointing. The Scripture specifically draws our attention to this fact at the end of the longest recorded message of our LORD Jesus (Matthew 5-7).

ANY man who is afraid to offend you is a compromised moral coward (Galatians 1:10; 4:16).

LOTS of people attempting in vain to do God’s work without God’s power (Acts 1:8).

Your life and preaching have little or no anointing from God if you are not baptized with the Holy Ghost (Acts 1:8; 2:38). Those believers who are not baptized in the Holy Ghost are greatly limited. | Full of the Holy Ghost

Are you baptized with the Holy Ghost? Jesus and His apostles and the earliest followers of Jesus were and God wants you to be (Acts 1:8). This is why they were full of God’s power!

“And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued (clothed upon) with power from on high.” Luke 24:49

God is calling all His men to repent of not allowing HIM, HIS Word to teach us and for selling our souls out to the world – by submitting our lives to the tutelage of mere sinful men in seminaries or Bible colleges. Paul denounced all his higher learning for Christ and to be used of Him! (Philippians 3) Satan’s Seminaries Busted and Exposed!

Anointed men are crucified men and they move men!

“Satan doesn’t give up his ground easy. He must be hit straight on. The word, backed up by a Holy Spirit filled vessel is the power against his lies and deception.” Jeni

The vatican-trained seminarians use Satan’s “bibles” which are not God’s Word and have removed and changed the pillar doctrines of the original Gospel. This alone underscores the prophesied great apostasy. Real New Testament fellowship by pouring over Acts 2:42-47. False “Bibles” Busted and Exposed

Most men in ministry today try to make a “fair show in the flesh”…. they are basically paid actors, cross-less, full of sinful self….  Yet the good news is that YOU don’t have to try to be someone special because Jesus is Almighty, He’s our all in all, everything! It’s all about Christ! The Daily Cross

Wolves patty cake with you because they want your money and could care less about your eternal soul (Isaiah 30:9-10; 2 Timothy:2-4; 2 Peter 2:1-3).

“AFTER” and not Before!

“But ye shall receive power, AFTER that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.” Acts 1:8

If you are not baptized with the Holy Ghost, you are not qualified by God to be His minister, elder. Sadly, many choose the laughable cheap substitute of seminary. The unchanging Savior never once sent His disciples to seminary for higher learning but rather to the cross-life and Pentecost. told His own twelve who had walked with Him over 3 years in the flesh that they were not ready or qualified to do His work until they received “power from on high.” (Luke 24:49) No Pentecost, No Power!

The ministry of Jesus was a sin-exposing and forgiving, chain-breaking, devil-crushing ministry of great divine power.

“How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.” Acts 10:38

Christ has not changed and desires to use His people to do what He did.

“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.” Hebrews 13:8

Would you correct Christ’s apostle Paul for being too harsh (according to you)? Here’s what Paul said to a deceiver in his day: “Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him, 10 And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?” (Acts 13:9-10)

Soft men get nothing done. No, they only perpetual people in their sins, leading them to damnation. God’s Word commands:

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. 5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.” 2 Timothy 4:2-5

So many have sinned by sitting under grace-perverting wolves who do nothing but coddle and comfort them in their sins instead of calling them to truly repent, deny self, die the death, take up the cross, lay down their lives, and follow Christ for real! The Holy Ghost specifically warned us of this! (2 Tim 4:2-4; Jude 3-4, etc.)

Mission Mexico Part 43

Had breakfast and coffee with brother Francisco and his lovely wife this morning. It was rich. He is a man of God’s Word for certain (Colossians 3:16). They brought a stack of Reina Valera Bibles which I am getting to our brother Juan who is going to the prison to minister next week. He will also be distributing the Spanish Bibles you sent!

“So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.” Acts 19:20


“Hi Brother Todd, Praise the Lord! The Holy Spirit is moving powerfully saving hearts and lives. Praying for the elders and for Maria as they go out in the harvest field. My heart is over flowing with gratitude to the Lord. Supplying the needs for the Mexico mission field! I loved all the pictures and videos. Thank you Brother Todd for the updates and for doing the mission work God has you doing there. This report has blessed me with Joy as I sow into the mission field for Jesus! Maria has Joy that comes from serving Jesus! I will send a gift to help pay for the shipping of Bibles. Hallelujah! Praying for you and the mission field! Joyful, joyful we adore thee! Ps. 16:11.” Darlene | Mission Mexico

EVERY TUESDAY IS MARKET DAY AND one of the first people who received the ministry of God’s Word today was Francisco and his wife Brenda. They are born again disciples and seeking God, studying His Word daily. Francisco took a supply of JESUS tracts and told me he has a supply of RVR (Reina Valera) Bibles he has been desiring to share with us to distribute. So we are scheduled to meet with dear brother and evangelist Juan this Saturday. Francisco is bi-lingual and so it’s going to be a blessing to see him and Juan connect and fellowship!

Francisco wants to give brother Juan lots of Spanish Bibles etc., to pass out daily and in the prison ministry he has.

We had a lengthy fellowship and Francisco said that this is exactly what he’s been praying for—the opportunity to truly minister to others and to do so with other saints. From what I could tell, seems like he’s fatigued with the church world, the modern church and it’s lukewarmness.

There’s not even a slight chance any of these connections are by accident. God is ordering the steps of His beloved people (Psalms 37:23). The LORD is hearing your prayers (Matthew 9:35-38). Your love offerings are also the fuel of what HE is doing!

Brother Francisco wanted to be added to the Spanish Whatsapp group and so he was already added and is being greeted by the others in that group.

“Isn’t our God so amazing to orchestrate all of this so you could meet this man and His wife—leading and placing you exactly where He wants you? What a blessing to meet these precious people. Now we can help this brother Francisco in doing Christ’s ministry work. God knew along. A divine appointment!” Karen Cochran

Here below are a few pics of what Francisco sent me just after we fellowshipped.

“Many Americans believe they are rich and in need of nothing. But inside they are in a spiritually wretched, miserable, poor, blind and naked state (Revelation 3:17). Worst part is they don’t know it or seem to care. Compared to Mexican’s who CRY when they receive a Bible or a Jesus tract, who know how spiritually poor they are and how much they need something outside of themselves to fill their empty hearts (Matthew 5:3). The difference is staggering.” Karen Cochran


Thank you for lifting a prayer for the beautiful people of Mexico.

Mission Mexico


Rene received the ministry of God’s Word today and is welcoming your prayer for his life.

Jesus is LORD, Savior, and King.

Of the many who heard God’s Word today, most of them were informed in Spanish that “Hell is forever. Repent and receive Christ today, before it’s too late.”


KINGDOM BREAKING!

FLORIDA: Dear sister Teri preached Christ’s glorious Gospel to this beloved woman today and she repented and received JESUS! They called and we welcomed her into Christ’s kingdom, etc. Her name is Lady and she is originally from Haiti.

Would you like to lift our new sister in Christ to God in prayer? Please do!



The reason why I have prayed and sought to connect with a good fellowship here is for the Spanish language that I do not know. And also so people we contact through evangelism on the street in real time can have a pastor or minister to call who speaks Spanish.

I want to put their name on the back of the JESUS tracts. Working on getting brother Juan to agree to let me put his name and number on the back of the next batch of JESUS tracts

The following is from brother David Taylor:

“Dear brother Todd, praise the Lord for His provision. Let’s pray for two more to work in harmony with bro Juan and that the Lord would knit their hearts together for the gospel of Jesus, the souls of men and glory of our God.”


Thank you for lifting up those receiving God’s Word in Mexico.

So far today, many have readily received our LORD’s Gospel truth and specifically, as they were told, that hell is for ever. Please don’t go there. Repent and receive Jesus today.

God be praised.

Mission Mexico


“Every time I hear of these divine appointments and how hungry people are in Mexico, I get tears in my eyes! I watch videos of people preaching here in the USA on the streets and some get literally beat up. People here just believe they are good and in need of nothing, especially not God. It’s so refreshing to see people who are poor in spirit and hungry for the Lord! May the LORD bless you and all who minister to these precious people.” Karen Cochran



Food Prices in Mexico

On Thursdays, I usually get out and eat breakfast and drink a coffee and get lots of ministry catch-up type  work etc. done……

This morning at my favorite local French cafe and bakery: Five-egg omelet with fresh spinach, onions, tomatoes, bread,  avocado and a top shelf cappuccino …. $12.70 total, and that included a 20% tip.

Rentals in Mexico

RENTALS – you can ALWAYS find an inexpensive rental…. just move to the town you wish to be in, connect with real Mexicans, and tell them what you need. DONE.


View from the barber’s chair.


“Praise the Lord ! She is shining for Jesus! Overflowing Joy! It’s a blessing to see how God is moving in the ministry, Mexico for Jesus,  Glory to God!!” Darlene


We went to see and support Maria this week, twice. She as usual had run out of tracts. So she was replenished. And the smile burst out on her face again. She was a bit drooping before that And she went at it with those tracts soon as they were put in her hands. And she wanted one box more and several bags full. Juan came and got the other boxes of Spanish Bibles last week also. Boom Jesus.

Dare I add that more than half the 10,000 JESUS tracts are already out there saints!?

Thanks for praying fervently.

IS AMERICA DOOMED? To Stay or to Go [podcast]


Great Commission Evangelism

“This message (podcast) sure nailed the state of America. Rotten to the very foundation. God’s judgment and fury is falling! His very name is being mocked! As so-called Christians participate in and celebrate what He calls an abomination (Leviticus 18:22), and teaching this to children! Where are the parents? Why are they not standing up for their kids? Why are they not pulling them out of these indoctrinated government run schools? Because the men are weak (Ahabs) and the women are Jezebels and busy working. So the children are left on their own. It starts at such an early age they do not know it is happening. No biblical foundation is why kids are murdering kids! No sense of right or wrong anymore. We are a cursed nation because we have deviated from the standards of God in rebellion and disobedience! God will not bless anything that is abomination to Him.” Karen Cochran

Does the unchanging LORD still allow persecution and for His people to be “scattered abroad”?

“And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles. 

2  And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great lamentation over him. 

3  As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every house, and haling men and women committed them to prison. 

Philip Proclaims Christ in Samaria

4  Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word. 

5  Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them. 

6  And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 

7  For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 

8  And there was great joy in that city.” Acts 8:1-8

Persecution had hit Jerusalem and Christ’s saints were prepared and “scattered abroad” to go and preach Christ’s Gospel to the world.

Concerning people being “scattered abroad,” one source notes:

Scattered abroad is a common biblical phrase primarily known from the King James Version (KJB) of the Bible. It describes the physical dispersion, spreading, or migration of a group of people. The concept holds both historical and theological significance, typically representing: 

    • Divine Judgment and Dispersion (Old Testament): In Genesis 11, God scatters humanity across the face of the earth and confuses their languages after their rebellion at the Tower of Babel. It also refers to the exile and historical dispersion (the diaspora) of the Israelites for rejecting God’s covenant. 
    • The Spread of the Gospel (New Testament): In the early Christian church, intense persecution in Jerusalem caused believers to scatter throughout various regions. Instead of destroying the movement, this dispersion inadvertently spread their message. For example, Acts 8:4 states: “Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.” 
    • Encouragement to Believers: In the New Testament, the opening of the Epistle of James (James 1:1) is famously addressed to the “twelve tribes which are scattered abroad,” offering pastoral comfort to Jewish Christians facing trials in foreign lands.”

Any nation that is even discussing whether or not there are more than 2 genders is doomed.

Does God desire to scatter abroad, to spread His people across the world?

“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 

16  He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 

17  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 

18  They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. 

19  So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. 

20  And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.” Mark 16:15-20

The LORD would never bless a nation that glorifies what He condemns. ANYONE who thinks America is or will ever be blessed without repentance…. is extremely gullible and deceived. Sodom! Ezekiel 16:49-51

“Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.” Leviticus 18:22

A good thing to ask proud Americans who claim they are Christians:

1. “When’s the last time you personally led someone to Jesus?”

2. “How much time and how much energy do you spend trying in vain to “save America” or “Make America Great Again” compared to the time and energy you spend learning, studying, and meditating on God’s Word and doing it—as in the Great Commission?”

“Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.” Matthew 7:21

Anyone claiming to be Christ’s and yet is not doing, is not obeying His Great Commission mandate, is not in the will of God.

PRAYER: Father in the name of Jesus, may Your people cry out to You today for the lost souls of fallen men for whom You sent Your only begotten Son to die (John 3:16-17). May we be blessed to cry out for that which most concerns You! In Jesus’ name.

As God looks down from Heaven…. here’s what He sees, here’s what breaks His holy heart ….

“Hell and destruction are before the LORD: how much more then the hearts of the children of men?” Proverbs 15:11

SOUND LIKE THE MODERN CHURCH IN AMERICA?

“And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves.” Mark 11:17

“11:17 Combining quotations from Isaiah and Jeremiah, He condemned desecration, exclusivism, and commercialism. God had intended the temple to be a house of prayer for all nations (Isa_56:7), not just for Israel. They had made it a religious market, a hang-out for shysters and racketeers (Jer_7:11).” Believer’s Bible Commentary

Recently lunatics went half crazy because some man threw a rock or stone at a monk seal. Yet no one is fighting for the right for precious innocent babies to live, to not be MURDERED in their own mother’s womb. America is under divine judgment and it’s not going to stop. It’s just getting started.

“Thou shalt not kill.” Exodus 20:13

“Fact: What the world celebrates, God hates!!

Fact: America as a nation will not be saved by God; only individual souls and families can be saved with the short time we have left.

Fact: The reason society has been overrun by the rainbow mafia in corporate America, in schools, and yes: even in ‘churches’, is because this God-mocking, God-hating nation has been given over to the filth they love above the holy God who gave us life.

Have a blessed day…” A disciple.

PRAYER: Father in the name of Jesus, may Your people cry out to You today for the lost souls of fallen men for whom You sent Your only begotten Son to die (John 3:16-17). May we be blessed to cry out for that which most concerns You! In Jesus’ name.

As God looks down from Heaven…. here’s what He sees, here’s what breaks His holy heart ….

“Hell and destruction are before the LORD: how much more then the hearts of the children of men?” Proverbs 15:11

Apostasy

Concerns about the writings of C.S. Lewis [podcast]


“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” Psalms 119:105

It’s a dangerous proposition to attempt to convey the divine doctrine, the truth, via fiction. Such an undertaking begins on skaky ground. The saints of Christ must get all their doctrine strictly from Scripture, and Holy Scripture only (Deut 4:1-10; Isaiah 34:16; John 5:39-40; 2 Tim 2:15; 3:15-17; 2 Pet 1:12-21, etc.). The writings of CS Lewis have zero divine inspiration and zero divine authority. Anyone who spends their time reading the writings of men, especially those which include very little Scripture (as in the case of Lewis), are inevitably going to be deceived. God gave us His Word to know Him and warned us that “MANY false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many” (Matthew 24:11).

Beware. CS Lewis never even claimed to be born again and yet still has a cult following.

Being born again means one “is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God…” (2 Corinthians 5:17-18) Yet Lewis asserts that “there are people in other religions who are being led by God’s secret influence to concentrate on those parts of their religion which are in agreement with Christianity, and who thus belong to Christ without knowing it.” So, the most profound divine miracle can happen to a person, they can be changed from the inside out, freely forgiven and regenerated, and not even know it? Such a statement from Lewis alone moves me to conclude that he was never born again. And this isn’t even to mention that he was at least in bed with the works-based antichrist Roman Catholic church.

Something to think about, to help you: Why would you be so strongly defending a mere man if that man and his writings didn’t mean so much to you? There seems to be a cult fiction following of Lewis involving people who seem to spend more times of a mere sinner’s fictional musings about God than they do reading about God for themselves in His own Word.

Of CS Lewis, one pastor notes problematic things in Lewis’s writings:

“(1) he was not an inerrantist; (2) he viewed the Protestant Reformation as avoidable; (3) he remained in the Church of England, despite his largely Protestant beliefs; (4) he allowed for “at least some people to be saved through imperfect representations of Christ in other religions”; (5) he gave little attention to the doctrine of atonement.” Then he says: “Lewis is not a writer to which we should turn for growth in a careful biblical understanding of Christian doctrine … There is almost no passage of Scripture on which I would turn to Lewis for exegetical illumination.”

CS Lewis stated: “I willingly believe that the damned are, in one sense, successful, rebels to the end; that the doors of hell are locked on the inside.” Lewis, “The Problem of Pain,” 538.

One minister notes of Lewis’ doctrine that “Lewis never believed in a literal hell, but instead believed hell is a state of mind one chooses to possess and become.” In other words, CS Lewis believe hell was not literal but rather a fiction.

Of CS Lewis, Rick Miesel wrote the following 15 conclusions about the beliefs of CS Lewis:

1. Lewis indicates that shortly before his death he was turning toward the Catholic Church. Lewis termed himself “very Catholic.” His prayers for the dead, belief in purgatory, and rejection of the literal resurrection of the body are serious deviations from Biblical Christianity.

2. His contention that some pagans may “belong to Christ without knowing it” is a destructive heresy…, as was his statement that “Christ fulfils both Paganism and Judaism …”

3. Lewis believed that we’re to become “gods,” an apparent affirmation of theistic evolution.

4. He also believed the Book of Job is “unhistorical” (Reflections on the Psalms, pp. 110), and that the Bible contained “error” (pp. 110, 112) and is not divinely inspired.

5. Lewis never believed in a literal hell, but instead believed hell is a state of mind one chooses to possess and become…

6. On heaven: “All the scriptural imagery (harps, crowns, gold, etc.) is, of course, a merely symbolical attempt to express the inexpressible.”

7. C.S. Lewis’s most outrageous misunderstanding was about the purpose of the death of Christ, which of course mars all subsequent propositions about the effects of the cross and salvation.

8. In his speculations on the hereafter, Lewis is to be criticized for being so extra-biblical.

9. In spite of what many believe to be brilliant exegesis on Christian apologetics (In light of the above, one wonders which of Lewis’s books these people have been reading?), there appears to have been in C.S. Lewis a seemingly irresistible attraction to the shadow world of occult fantasy — a mingling of darkness with light evident in writings apart from his apologetics.

10. Lewis’s early favorite literature included E. Nesbit’s trilogy: Five Children and It, The Phoenix and the Wishing Carpet, plus The Amulet — all occult fantasies.

11. So much was Lewis’s life steeped in fantasy that he wrote, “The central story of my life is about nothing else” (p. 17). From Nesbit and Gulliver he advanced to Longfellow’s Saga of King Olaf and fell in love with the magic and pagan myths of Norse legend. By the age of twelve, there had grown in Lewis’s mind an intense relationship with the world of fantasy and elves… Although one would expect childhood fantasies to subside after a time, in Lewis’s case they became more a delight as he grew older.

12. After advancing to preparatory school at Wyvern, Lewis gradually “ceased to be a Christian.” He became interested in the occult and embraced an attitude of pessimism about what he considered a faulty world. His taste for the occult was nurtured and grew as he became enthralled with Wagnerian operas and their Norse sagas derived from Celtic mythology.

13. It was during their long association that both Lewis and JR Tolkien developed their most prestigious “sword and sorcery” material.

13. It is argued that in presenting a blend of fantasy with analogy to Christian truth, Lewis hoped to encourage his readers to search out the truth further. This, however, was not Lewis’s intention in writing his fantasies… Many of Lewis’s characters in his fantasies depicted as “good” are in reality associated with witchcraft, pagan mythology, and the Norse mysteries.

14. One of the more pronounced confusions of good and evil is Till We Have Faces, Lewis’s retelling of the Greek myth of Cupid and Psyche, written just a few years before his death. In this work, several ungodly concepts are espoused as valid truths.

15. In fact, there has developed a cult of sorts which venerates the fantasies of Lewis along with those of other writers who do not claim to be Christians. Evidence of this is the fact that Lewis’s Chronicles of Narnia is listed along with other occult writings as recommended inspirational reading by the makers of the demonically-oriented game Dungeons and Dragons!

CONCLUSION

According to Miesel, Lewis is also heretical on the depravity of man, how salvation works, being “Born Again,” and animals in heaven. He concludes,

“While there may be insights into life that are profitable to be found in the works of C.S. Lewis, we think it not wise to encourage young or untaught Christians to feed on such a presentation of so-called Christian truth. Some may be readily attracted to Lewis’s style and logic, but let us not be blinded and thus miss the plain and simple truth of Scripture.”
