1 Corinthians 12:3 "---and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost."
Ministries of Jesus Christ should never merchandise DVD's, Christian jewelry, books, CD's, or tapes. All things of God are free! Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Isaiah 55:1 Always seek the Lord! God's ways are greater than any man, world-governments, philosophies, Christian psychology, medical doctors, bank accounts, success motivation, higher education, or religious denominations. Jesus is Lord! "And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth." Matthew 28:18 To you the reader! You may find that some of the things spoken on this site are hard to bear, even to the point of being legalistic, but they are not. Holiness has always been accused of being legalistic. What many denominations teach about holiness is legalistic, while true holiness comes through the Holy Spirit. It is not man's religious-denominational doctrines, or formulas that bring holiness: it comes through the Holy Spirit only. Jesus taught many things about holiness. In today's times, many Christians are not any different from the world's people. They are religious, but not holy before God. This is a sign of being close to end-times. It is the Laodicean Church from Revelation 3:14-18. Jesus is about to purify His Church into one of holiness and without spot and free from wordiness. Those few who are seeking holiness through the Holy Spirit are very different from the world. They are the remnant Church, in the world, but are not of the world! Rejoice in the Lord, Always Pray, Trust Him! A blind person cannot see where they are going and need someone to help them. They admit that they cannot see, and need guidance. A sinner needs someone to show them the way too, however, most refuse to admit that they cannot see. Does that mean that Jesus has turned His back on sinners because they refuse His help? Of course not! Does this mean that the people of Jesus should turn their back on sinners because they refuse help? Of course not! Should God's people turn their backs on religions because they have back slide into man's tradition? Of course not! We need compassion and prayer for them. It is only by humbling ourselves under the cross, and remembering that we too were once sinners, but for grace we were also lost, that we will be able to have compassion for them. "Brethren if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such a one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest though also be tempted." Galations 6:1

"He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; he led him about, he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye." Deuteronomy 32:10 Monday, 06-Sep-2010 00:13:21 EDT |

"The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." John 10:10
"--Freely you have recieved, freely give." Mathew 10:8 Jesus never intended for ministries to solicit stocks, money, properties, or inheritances in return for our work in the gospel. It is supposed to be totally FREE!!! "and Jesus went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves;" Mark 11:15
"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
Events are happening in the middle-east that need our prayers. Anyone who has spent time reading Bible prophecy knows that this area holds prophecy of a horrible war. Slowly America is being dragged into this area too. "And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh." Luke 21:20 | ||
