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

He cannot deny HIMSELF but He will deny us if we deny Him – “It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him: 12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us: 13 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself (not us).” 2 Timothy 2:11-13

Common objection: “But wait, Jesus told us that we could never be plucked out of the Father’s hand!!!”

Mind if we read the context?

“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.” John 10:27-29

The LORD promises to mankind include, contain conditions. In the passage above, Jesus gives this promise to His “sheep” who are defined by the fact that they “hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.” (v27) Those who receive Christ in repenting initially are required by the LORD to continue with Him (“abide”/remain John 15) – hearing His voice and following Him – according to HIS prescription, not the lies of false teachers.

Those in Him who do not continue – “abide” – in Christ, will be cast into the fires of eternal hell.

“If a man abide (remain) not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned (hell fire).” John 15:6

The same wolves who teach John 10:28-29 out of its context will never be heard mentioning what Jesus says in this same Gospel of John. Sadly, today millions refuse to read God’s Word honestly, daily, and diligently for themselves and are therefore misled by the “many false teachers” Jesus and His apostles so often warned us about (Matthew 7:15; 24; 11, 24; Colossians 2:8; 1 John 4:1, etc.).

The snake who taught you that you are “eternally secure” no matter what, conveniently neglected to give you the condition in the context.

Many today claim to be saved and yet are not saved from habitual sin (1 John 3:8). Read Romans 6:1-2. WHAT’S true saving grace look like in the life of the recipient? (Titus 2:11-14) ….BEWARE of the many grace-perverting wolves who teach un-conditional eternal security/OSAS-once saved always saved. These of Satan’s agents. Run! (Jude 3-4)

Make Romans 6 your spiritual meat this week.

This promise of security is predicated on hearing His voice and following Him. This is continual tense.

The promises of God are conditional. There are divine conditions and if not met, will cause the rebel to lose out.

Our whole relationship with the LORD is predicated on His perfect righteousness and our faith in Him who alone accomplished, purchased our righteousness at the cross. We contact – initially and ongoing – His righteousness by faith (Rom. 3:23-26; 4:4-5). It’s impossible to please God without faith in Him instead of self yet Jesus says after believing and being saved, that recipient of His saving grace can “fall away.” (Luke 8:12-13) People CAN stop believing and “fall away.” (Hebrews 3:6, 12-14, etc.)

Doing these things you mentioned IS abiding in Christ – trusting Him not flesh or self…. Gal 3:3

Abiding is engaging in this trust, this faith, oneness relationship. John 15, 17. This relationship Jesus died to grant requires the participation of the recipient.

This idea that God could never disown, sever from Himself and His kingdom, those who rebel, is a farce. Biblical history is full of such example, beginning with Lucifer being severed – ejected – from eternal glory (Luke 10:18). Adam and Eve were severed from His holy presence when they sinned (Genesis 3).

Here’s a mere taste:

Genesis – Man was created perfect and yet when he chose to sin, God ousted him from the pristine Garden of creation.
Numbers 16:30-35 – Thousands of God’s own covenant people were sent straight to hell for rebelling.
1 Corinthians 10:1-12 – the 5 sins that kept many of God’s own people out of the promised land.
Revelation 21:8, 27 – list of classes of sinners cut off from the kingdom and vanquished into the lake of fire.

The book of Jude details a list of created beings who rebelled against our Maker and were cut off as a result.

Who ever convinced you that God can’t and won’t sever those who rebel from His own kingdom?

God is not obligated to keep any person he’s saved who then rebels and will not return to Him (repent).

“Therefore, thou son of man, say unto the children of thy people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression: as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall thereby in the day that he turneth from his wickedness; neither shall the righteous be able to live for his righteousness in the day that he sinneth. 13 When I shall say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his righteousnesses shall not be remembered; but for his iniquity that he hath committed, he shall die for it.” Ezekiel 33:12-13

Un-conditional eternal security, also known by the heretical cliches “Once saved always saved” and “eternal security,” is responsible for damning the souls of millions – who once walked with God. Then they rebelled and were “cut off” for “departing from the living God.” (Romans 11:20-22; Hebrews 3:12-14, etc.).

Why would terms like “fall away,” “cut off,” and “departing from the living God” be found in Scripture if such were not possible? Only a vile, diabolical liar would say such is not possible (Luke 8:13; Romans 11:20-22; Hebrews 3:12-14).

Beware of the OSAS snakes!

Those who cling to “once saved always saved” heresy are more interested in their own self feeling secure than what the LORD said in the full counsel of His Word. They refuse to truly walk with Christ the way He requires – death to self, taking up the cross daily (Luke 9:23-24, etc.). Self must be crucified or self will crucify Christ right out of our lives! (Romans 6, etc.).

The “sealed” deception: Those who believe the Bible definition of “sealed” means that they are secure no matter what for Heaven, are deceived. They have bought the lie of this false definition of sealed found in Ephesians AND Matthew 27:66. The wolf who taught them this OSAS definition of sealed conveniently refused to tell them about Matthew 27:66. Jesus’s tomb was sealed (SAME Greek word as Ephesians!) and we both know that seal was broken. If not, Christ didn’t rise from the dead and we are lost souls (1 Corinthians 15:17). We open sealed envelopes every day. Jesus’ promise in John 10:28-29 has a condition – v27 – hearing His voice and following Him – present tense. Jesus invented the term “fall away” but you say it can’t happen (Luke 8:13). You are teaching the calvinist heresy of “perseverance of the saints.” Total lie. Man never loses his free will. If you honestly read Scripture you cannot believe OSAS.

Only a false teacher who is denying Christ by denying what He stated misuses and ignores volumes of Scripture to “prove” his OSAS fairy tale – which produces lukewarm “Christians.” And all it takes to be rejected from Christ – spued from His holy mouth – is to not be on fire but rather “lukewarm.” (Revelation 3:15-16). JESUS says “Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.” Luke 13:24 …. OSAS is the heretical doctrine for moral cowards who refuse to take up the cross daily and truly die to self, allowing Christ alone to reign in their personal lives (Galatians 2:20). Hell awaits if you don’t repent. Read Mark 9:43-49 in the KJB.

No man on earth is secure in sin with He who is “Holy, holy, holy.” (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8) The only one these deceived souls are kidding and deceiving is themselves. The wages of sin is still death (Romans 6:23). If you live in sin, hell is where you’ll end up in.

“Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.” Ezekiel 18:30

If you are truly of God you will be corrected by these Scriptures and cease listening to the pansy you called pastor. That same wolf refuses to focus your attention on Bible verses such as this one:

“Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.” 2 Corinthians 7:1

WHEN did the Almighty cease to be holy? When did He change? Those who believe that they are secure for Heaven while living in sin are delusional. Hell awaits.

False teachers are more interested in promulgating their doctrines of mere men than honestly teaching the whole and raw truth of God’s Word. They purposely evade Bible passages that contradict their false doctrines. Like the hell bound false leaders Jesus addressed, they set aside the very Word of God for their own false teachings (Mark 7:6-9). You will never know their teaching is false if you don’t personally, daily, and diligently, with honest heart, “Study to shew thyself approved unto God.” (2 Timothy 2:15)

OSAS/eternal security is the golden calf pet doctrine of the grace-perverting wolves in this late hour (Jude 3-4). Make no mistake, these vile children of Satan lie for clout and cash.

Wolves Have Produced a Security Idol and Obsession

Recently, one man wrote this to me:

“In 1 Cor 9:27 – “Castaway” /Disqualified in this context is about being displeasing in ministry or losing ministry opportunity/credibility and not losing salvation. Paul believed in eternal security (Romans 8:29-30).”

REPLY: Paul told us in 1 Corinthians 9:27 that he could be cast away from the LORD in the end if he didn’t keep his flesh under the control of the Holy Spirit by living a crucified life which is an essential condition given us throughout Scripture. Not when you put it together with all of Scripture. ‘Castaway’ in 1 Corinthians 9:27 could only mean one thing – that one who is not in Christ at death will be ‘cast away’ or separated from Him. OSAS is not biblical. It is a lie. It’s the first lie ever told to mankind which caused his fall from grace (Gen 2:17; 3:4). This same lie is still being peddled by false teachers today (Jude 3-4; 2 Pet 2:20-21; Rom 11:20-22; Hebrews 3:6, 12-14; 10:26-39; Revelation 3:11, etc.). Also, you mentioned Romans 8:29-30 which speaks of being “conformed to the image of his Son” which is to be crucified with Christ – to keep under the body. This is the daily cross Jesus says is essential to following Him (Luke 9:23-24, etc.).

Are you living after the flesh or crucifying it by taking up the daily cross? Romans 6; Galatians 2:20; 5:16-24; Colossians 3:3, etc.

The Certainty of God’s Promise

Some read passages like the one below, seeking to excuse themselves from all personal responsibility. These are not honest in heart but rather choosing sin and darkness over Christ and His light (John 3:19-21, etc.). God’s covenant promise to us is ratified by Himself. The blood covenant is between the Father and Jesus. By this we are justified but not without condition. God swore by Himself, not faulty man. This is what makes His covenant sure, yet that in no way negates man’s personal responsibility to keep His stated conditions by faith.

“For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself, 14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee. 15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise. 16 For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife. 17 Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath: 18 That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: 19 Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil; 20 Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.” Hebrews 6:13-20

If you are presently anchored in, abiding in Christ, you are sure for eternal glory. If you are not rooted and grounded in an intimate, fruit-bearing relationship with Jesus – on HIS terms – you are as sure for hell as if you were already there. Read John 15:1-6.

PRAYER: Holy Father, please forgive my man sins – my rebellion, self-righteousness, self-will, disobedience, and unbelief. Wash me in Thy precious blood dear LORD Jesus. Please sanctify my life to glorify and bear fruit for Your eternal glory. Bless me to abide in Thee and to never be self-deceived by the deceitfulness of sin. Please fill and use me dear LORD. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Is God faithful to save us if we aren't faithful to Him, if we deny Him? [podcast]

Would GOD Ever Deny One of His Own People? What Does Scripture Teach? The Word of God is the truth (John 17:17). Something isn’t true just because you want it to be true. It’s true because the LORD says it – in the context of the whole of His Word (Romans 3:3-4; 2 Timothy 3:16-17, etc.). Those not honest with the Bible demonstrate that they aren’t honest with its Author (John 8:47; 2 Timothy 4:2-4). MESSAGE FROM SOMEONE MAKING A VAIN ATTEMPT TO JUSTIFY OSAS/ETERNAL SECURITY: “‘If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny ‘himself.'” 2 Timothy […]

Can You Forfeit Salvation by Living in Sin? [podcast]

Those who foolishly espouse the myth of eternal security/once saved always saved, do so because they worship self, not the Savior. Their heretical theology is built around what caters to them, to their sin, and not Christ who is “Holy, holy, holy.” (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8; 1 Peter 1:18-19, etc.). They’ve made a god in their own evil image and are idolaters. Do you realize that the the apostle Paul named 5 specific sins that kept God’s people out of their promise land (which equates to Heaven) Can You Forfeit Salvation by Living in Sin? (1 Corinthians 10:1-13) “What shall we […]

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

Kingdom Opportunity “All things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee.” 1 Chronicles 29:14 May our LORD bless each of us to be cultivated in a heart filled with sincere and true worship and thanksgiving to Him. “…freely ye have received, freely give.” Matthew 10:8 We should understand that we have freely received the salvation of our God in Christ and that those who don’t give out of the mercy, forgiveness, love, supply that He has given us, are not in God’s will.

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. I have not 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 with all of my heart, no matter what. I love You my dear LORD. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Fresh Start with God

MESSAGE RECEIVED:

“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”

REPLY:

Yes amen sister Andrea

Nice to hear from you

Very important doctrinal topic here

All it takes to go to hell after being saved is to be “lukewarm” right? Yes. Revelation 3:15-16

These 2 categories are loaded: Check it out. LOTS of Scripture to shape pure doctrine in your heart and life and ministering.

In Jesus, todd

Lukewarm is Hell Bound | OSAS/eternal security is a lie from hell |

Being Made Whole in Christ [podcast]

PSYCHO-BABBLE, PSYCHOTHERAPY IS A LIE THAT PROMISES ANSWERS WHILE ALLOWING ITS FALSE PROPHETS TO MILK THE VICTIM$ WITH ITS LIES (2 Peter 2:1-3). Oh you all the time hear frauds telling you how they “got therapy” and that “you need therapy” or “counseling.” Yet, they would never say “You need Jesus”, or “you need His Word, to get into His Word.” (2 Timothy 2:15; 3:15-17, etc.) 100% frauds. Antichrists – due to putting something, anything in place of Jesus Christ (1 John 2:18:4:1-3). They refuse to uphold the “HEAD” of His body, from whom alone flows all divine virtue […]

Spiritual Adultery: Worshipping Wolves! [podcast]

We have Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and the Bible so shouldn’t be overly enamored with mere sinful men (1 Corinthians 1:29-2:5). “Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, and put the stumblingblock of their iniquity before their face: should I be enquired of at all by them?” Ezekiel 14:3 God is toppling all the heart idols (Ezekiel 14:3)… because He’s Jealous and wants us looking to Him and not these mere men, these vile wolves, these “celebrity” sinners posing as His representatives (Exodus 34:14). They are kindling for the fires of eternal damnation and […]

"A Faithful Man shall Abound with Blessings" [podcast]

Do you desire to abound in the blessings of God? Jesus our LORD taught that as we are faithful with what the LORD has already given us, then, and only then, will He multiply it. ASK YOURSELF: Are you faithful to abide, to obey Him by obeying His Word? If so, Jesus and the Father are dwelling richly with you and will multiply you according to your proper, wise, faithful stewardship of what is already in your possession – which is from Him. See John 14:21-23. “A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be […]
