One World Government

It is so sad to see that the Democratic party has almost completely been taken over by those who support the leftist one world government also called globalism. It is easy to see in their hard line against everything President Trump puts forth or supports, even those issues that they claim as their own causes.

Why is this? It is because the leftist agenda of globalism requires that the United States be weak politically, economically and militarily. A strong USA makes a global government impossible.

What about Russia and China, they have strong governments, economies and militaries?  They are socialist (communistic) in nature which is what the leftist agenda is. Those who want a one world government want it as a socialist government. Because they are elitist and they believe they will be part of the one world government elite that rules over the whole world.

Now that is not to say that there are no elitist, leftist, one world government members in the Republican party, because there are. Watch and see how many Republicans oppose President Trump and his agenda for a strong America.

Many in our government are not true Americans but they are true globalists who want a one world government. It has nothing to do with conservative or liberal ideals, it is about strong independent nations or one government ruling all nations.

The reality is that this is what the Bible says is going to happen, there will be one government that will rule over all the nations, actually there will be two one world governments according to the Bible. The first will be led by a human with seeming supernatural charisma and the power to unify the world under his rule. But this will fail after seven years and be replaced by the one true government of Jesus Christ which will last for 1000 years.

Then all humanity living and dead will be judged and enter eternal damnation or eternal life depending on whether they believed on Jesus Christ as the savior and LORD of the whole world or not. There will be an eternal lake of fire for those who reject Jesus and a new heaven and earth for those who believe and confess Jesus as their savior and LORD.

The Word of the LORD for His Church

The Word of The LORD for His Church                                     1-14-2018

Last night at the worship and fellowship meeting of New Beginnings CF during worship Katherine Zent had a word in tongues and Alma Patterson had the interpretation; “For I declare to you My precious ones, you are My alabaster boxes on the earth at this time and as life happens to you and brings forth trials that seem to be episodes of brokenness, I purpose it to bring forth the fragrance of Christ to those around you. Be not dismayed nor despair I am with you doing a good work in you. I love you and I’m with you take heart.”

Also during our worship Katherine had a vision, she saw herself like a softball fastpitch pitcher (with the windup, leap forward and release) that hurls the ball at great speed. The LORD had her pitch three times and each time a ball of light went forth, but she did not know where they were going. As our worship continued and I thought about it I felt the three balls were for the Church, USA and Israel. Jim Cantos pointed out Habakkuk 3:4, “His brightness was like the light; He had rays flashing from His hand, and there His power was hidden.” NKJV

After worship Ben Monson read and commented on John 17, He spoke of glorifying, that it is the act of revealing others’ goodness. Jesus’ prayer about unity, the unity of the GOD Head and the unity of GOD and His people. The main points to me were that our GOD is one GOD and that eternal life is to know the one true GOD and Jesus Christ whom He had sent. Salvation comes through believing and receiving the life, death and resurrection of Jesus as the Lamb of GOD who takes away the sin of the world. But, eternal life is being with the Father and the Son in the Spirit forever knowing them as they know and have always known each other. That we cannot not know GOD in the world, but as believers as we believe that He sent Jesus  the love with which the Father loves Jesus would be in us and Jesus would be in us.

As the meeting was winding down my wife Charlene made the comment that she had recently heard a pastor teaching on the unity of GOD so that contrary to popular teaching the Father did not and could not abandon Jesus on the cross when He became sin for us. The consensus was that we all believed that the Father and Son could not be separated and that while many had taught this separation because of our sin, that Jesus was suffering our punishment, we’ve heard taught that Jesus suffered in hell and was tormented by the devil and demons. IMPOSSIBLE! In the flesh as a man Jesus defeated the devil under direct temptation. Jesus’ true suffering was in the garden as He prayed to His Father, “If this cup could pass from Me, not My will but Yours be done.” As the Son of Man Jesus understood what He was about to endure and He understood that it was the only way to restore humanity to the original sinless eternal relationship we were meant to have with GOD. As the Lamb of GOD He took away our sin but He did not suffer our punishment, with our sin removed no punishment is required. Even under the Law when an animal sacrifice was made to cover the peoples’ sin there was then no punishment required.

We discussed Jesus’ cry on the cross as His body died, “My GOD, My GOD why have You forsaken Me?” In His humanity He felt abandoned at the point of death even though He was the GOD Head incarnate (Colossians 2:9).  Father, Jesus and Holy Spirit could never be separated because they are the One True GOD. In the Psalms and Prophets many cry out to GOD, “How long LORD will You abandon us?” Yet today we know that He never did even though their experience made them believe that He had.

Pastor Chris Leeper said it was possible that this bad teaching could also have come out of Habakkuk 1:13a, “You are of purer eyes than to behold evil, and cannot look on wickedness.” The problem is when we look at the whole verse (this is a problem in the church where people only use the part of the scripture that fits what they are teaching), “You are of purer eyes than to behold evil, and cannot look on wickedness. Why do You look on those who deal treacherously, and hold Your tongue when the wicked devours a person more righteous than he?” then we see that GOD is not turning away from seeing evil or sin, the book of Habakkuk is talking of GOD’s longsuffering to sinners putting off His judgment giving us time to repent, even when it is too late to stop GOD’s judgment for a group or nation it is not too late for an individual to repent and be saved.

Study Habakkuk, John 17, Colossians 1 & 2, 2 Timothy 3, 2 Peter 1 & 2. Remember the Bible was not written in chapters and verses, it is 66 different books written by 40 different men over 1500 to 2000 years. Psalms and Proverbs are the only ones written in their present form but they were not numbered as we have them. GOD gave us His Word because He wants us to learn of Him and to serve Him. While we are to follow Holy Spirit we have the Bible to make sure that we are not following a false spirit, there are several “Christian” churches that have their own doctrine and book that differs from the one GOD gave humanity (Joshua 1:8-9; 2 Timothy 3:10-17; 2 Peter 1:16-2:3; Revelation 1:3).

Our Cross

Our Cross

What does “Take up your cross and follow Me!” mean?

“Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. For I have come to ‘set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law’; and ‘a man’s enemies will be those of his own household.’ He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it.” (Matthew 10:34-39 NKJV also study Luke 14:25-33)

“From that time Jesus began to show to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day. Then Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, ‘Far be it from You, LORD; this shall not happen to You!’ But He turned and said to Peter, ‘Get behind Me, Satan! You are an offence to Me, for you are not mindful of the things of GOD, but the things of men.’ Then Jesus said to His disciples, ‘If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? For the Son of Man will come in the glory of the Father with His angels, and then He will reward each according to his works.’” (Matthew 16:21-27 NKJV also study Mark 8:31-38 & Luke 9:21-26)

“Now as He was going out on the road, one came running, knelt before Him, and asked Him, ‘Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?’ So Jesus said to him, ‘Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is GOD. You know the commandments: “Do not commit adultery,” “Do not murder,” “Do not steal,” “Do not bear false witness,” “Do not defraud,” “Honor your father and your mother.”’ And he answered and said to Him, ‘Teacher, all these things I have kept from my youth.’ Then Jesus looking at him, loved him, and said to him, ‘One thing you lack: Go your way, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, take up your cross and follow Me.’ But he was sad at this word, and went away sorrowful, for he had great passions.” (Mark 10:17-22 NKJV)

I’ve never truly understood what the people (even the disciples) thought when Jesus would tell them that to follow Him they must take up their cross. They (even the disciples) did not yet understand what He meant about following Him, it seems to me that they (even the disciples) mostly followed Him because of the signs and wonders and the hope He would free them from Roman rule. They all knew what the cross was, the Roman form of a torturous death penalty. But they did not understand what Jesus meant when He told them they had to take up their cross and follow Him. After His crucifixion some might have thought He meant they would have to carry their own cross and be crucified like He did, to follow Him (and many have), I am sure that the disciples thought this and feared this not understanding the fuller meaning of dying to themselves and following Christ.

It was not until the day of Pentecost and Holy Spirit filling the disciples with His presence and the knowledge of who and what Christ was and had done that suddenly they understood everything they had heard, seen and experienced with Jesus in the context of eternal salvation rather than mortal life. I am sure that most if not all of the first converts after Pentecost were people who had heard Jesus teach and seen Him do signs and wonders, but they had no context in which they could understand what He was teaching and demonstrating.

Not until Holy Spirit downloaded into the disciples and they began under His influence and power to expound and demonstrate the Kingdom of GOD did they and the people begin to understand what Jesus had been teaching about His eternal Heavenly Kingdom. That the pursuit of it verses the natural world was GOD’s plan for humanity all along and that Jesus was the only bridge that allowed sinful humans to cross over from the natural world with its’ eternal destruction into His Heavenly Kingdom with its’ eternal rewards.

Today many in the Church seem to have lost the understanding of this essential concept! There is much teaching in the Church about our comfort and prosperity in this life rather than building up treasures in Heaven. More Christians are presence minded than Kingdom minded, we are to, “Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who being in the form of GOD, did not consider it something to be held onto, to be equal with GOD, but emptied Himself of His privileges, taking on the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore GOD also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in Heaven, and those on earth, and those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is LORD, to the glory of GOD the Father.” (Philippians 2:5-11 NKJV)

How did Jesus do this and how are we to do this?

Jesus took up His cross and was crucified because He only did what He saw the Father do and He only said what He heard the Father say. He fully yielded His will to the Father knowing the cost. “But I have said to you that you have seen Me and yet do not believe.  All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out. For I have come down from Heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. This is the will of the Father who sent Me, that of all that He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day. And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day” (John 6:36-40 NKJV Also study John 5:16-30, 8:21-30, 12:42-50, 14:7-11)

“Coming out, He went to the Mount of Olives, as He was accustomed, and His disciples also followed Him. When He came to the place, He said to them, ‘Pray that you may not enter into temptation.’ And He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and He knelt down and prayed, saying, ‘Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done.’ Then an angel appeared to Him from Heaven, strengthening Him. And being in agony, He prayed more earnestly. Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground. When He rose up from prayer, and had come to His disciples, He found them sleeping from sorrow. Then He said to them, ‘Why do you sleep? Rise and pray, lest you enter into temptation.’” (Luke 22:39-46 NKJV also study Matthew 26:36-46 & Mark 14:32-42)

So why is this so hard for us as believers? Because we are slow to know that GOD has called us not to live our life, die and go to Heaven to be with Him for eternity; but to die to ourself, crucifying our flesh and our will and to live our life to do His will; the works of His Kingdom now in the earth. “Later He appeared to the eleven as they sat at the table; and He rebuked their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they had not believed those who had seen Him after He had risen. And He said to them, ‘Go into the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.’” (Mark 16:14-18 NKJV also study Matthew 28:16-20; Luke 24:44-49; John 20:19-23 & Acts 1:4-8)

Father, forgive us our desire to live our own life rather than the life that You wrote out for us while we were yet in our mother’s womb. Holy Spirit, thank You that You instruct us in the way of your Kingdom and teach us how to yield to and obey GOD’s call for our life. Amen!

5 Phases of Salvation

5 Phases of Salvation!

11.       The promise: Before the foundation of the earth was laid GOD the Father knew that humanity would sin and need salvation so He ordained that Jesus, His only Begotten Son, would go to the cross to redeem humanity, giving His life and shedding His Blood to redeem us to our Creator.

22.       Jesus’ birth by a virgin, His life of overcoming sin and every temptation that is common to humanity by only doing the will of His Father as the Son of Man.

33.       Jesus’ death on the cross becoming sin for us and removing our sin from us. His resurrection from the grave defeating death and hell and taking the keys of their dominion. His commission to all believers (the Church) to do as He did in the world.

44.       Jesus’ ascension to the right hand of the Throne of GOD from where He directs His Body (the Church) in the earth, the Father’s sending of Their Spirit (Holy Spirit) to indwell His earthly temples (our bodies) to teach, guide, comfort and direct all believers.

55.       We come to the place in our life that we know we cannot save ourself and recognize that only GOD’s gift of salvation through Jesus Christ can save us from eternal damnation into eternal life. We confess we are a sinner in need of salvation and ask GOD to forgive us in Jesus’ name and by His shed Blood, to live in us by His Holy Spirit and to take control of our life (be LORD of our life). We confess to others our faith in GOD and salvation in Jesus and do only His will.

Warning

 To our family and friends who believe that they are Christians; you go to church fairly often, give money to the church, participate in some type of mid-week meeting, you may belong to the men’s or women’s group in your church. To all of you who believe you are born again and going to Heaven someday I want to give you a warning.

Please read this all the way through, I was one of you for over 30 years. I became a Christian on my 23^rd birthday. Over a period of 20 years I went to Bible College for 3 years, I read and studied the Bible (for my own reasons usually to prove my point), Charlene and I tithed, we were children and adult Sunday school teachers, we were home group leaders, we supported missionaries in Mexico and in YWAM, I taught Bible studies, I spoke from our pulpit when our Pastor was away, I went on a church planting trip to Russia, I was on the board of our Church for a few years,. We were busy and happy Christians.

But, I was not fully surrendered to GOD, I had secret sin, I served GOD the way I wanted as much or more that the way He wanted. This led to 17 years of walking away from GOD, leaving the church family that we loved and who loved us, of my going deeper into sin, of our marriage almost being destroyed, of health issues for Charlene. 6 years ago we started going to a small church where our old pastor was teaching, we liked the church and we kept going. I repented of my sin to GOD and Charlene and started seeking to serve GOD.

This is the warning: For all of that 37 years I prayed, I read and studied the Bible, I was used by GOD to teach and minister to others but as stated above there were times that I acted upon my own agenda instead of GOD’s. Was I a saved – born again believer? Yes I believe I was! Did GOD use me for His purpose? Yes He did when I agreed or allowed Him to! Was it possible for me to be excluded from Heaven? Yes, not because I had secret sin or even because I did not always do what I knew GOD wanted me to do. But because out of not yielding my life (the one that Jesus purchased back to GOD) I had rebellion in my heart. The rebellion led to the secret sin and not always doing what GOD wanted me to do. Rebellion is lawlessness and is what leads to not entering into GOD’s Eternal Heavenly Kingdom! “Not everyone who says to Me (Jesus), ‘LORD, LORD,’ shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in Heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ’LORD, LORD, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’”

After 40 years of being a Christian and reading and studying the Bible one day these verses jumped out at me and made me realize that many in the church were in this position, then it dawned on me that I was one of those who could be left out of heaven. This leads to a discussion on salvation that I am not going to start at this time since it will be more of a booklet than a paper.

So how can a Christian be left out of Heaven? There are many parables in Jesus’ teachings that emphasis this teaching, Matthew 17:24-27, chapter 25; Luke 9:57-62, 11:37-54, chapter 12, 13:22-30, 14:25-33 and there are many more. Some of these are hard to take because Jesus is calling for our full surrender to GOD. The Bible is clear that GOD wants our full undivided life. So how does that work and why.

The why first: GOD created everything that exists, the earth, sky, seas, universe, etc. They are His because He made them. GOD formed man from the dust of the earth and breathed His breath of life into him, then GOD gave that man dominion over all that He had created in the earth to care for and use. That man, Adam, the progenitor of all humanity then took and gave that dominion to Satan, a fallen angel who had rebelled against GOD. How did Adam do that, he disobeyed the only law GOD had given him, to not eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Before Adam’s decision to disobey and be lawless there was no sin or death in the earth. Since Adam gave his dominion to Satan there has been continual sin and death and it will continue until Christ Jesus Returns.

The how: Jesus the Son of GOD was born as a human from a virgin mother, no earthly father was involved because the sin nature of humanity would be passed on. GOD created His only begotten Son in the womb of Mary and Jesus Christ was born the son of man and the Son of GOD. He then lived a sin free life overcoming or resisting every type of temptation that humanity faces, He then in obedience to His Father went to the cross and died in our place for our sin. He became sin for us and was separated from His Father which is our eternal punishment. He then defeated death and hell taking the keys of their dominion and by the power of His Holy Spirit He rose from the grave and ascended to the right hand of His Father in Heaven where He waits for His Church to complete His work of salvation on the earth (the great commission). When we ask GOD to forgive us our sin because of what Jesus did and confess to others that we have given our life to GOD we are born again; saved by grace; redeemed.

What do these terms mean? Born again – we are no longer children of humanity and the world, we are now children of GOD, joint heirs of His eternal Kingdom with Jesus. Saved by grace – we did not do anything to deserve or earn our salvation other than to ask GOD in Jesus name to forgive us and save us. Redeemed – Jesus purchased us from the devil back to GOD by His blood.

So the how is that we no longer belong to the devil, we never have belonged to our self because Adam gave us to the devil in his lawless act of rebellion over GOD’s one command. We are now the possession of GOD as we were intended to be from creation. Since we are the possession of GOD reinstated as the inheritors of His eternal Kingdom we no longer have the right to disobey GOD (we have the freedom of choice, but not the right), as our creator and Heavenly Father He expects us to obey and serve Him. As Jesus taught His disciples and later prayed Himself, “Father, not My will but Yours!”

If you do not want to be with those to whom He says, “I do not know you, you lawless one, you are not allowed in My Kingdom.” Then stop living according to your own will and desires and start obeying GOD in everything you say and do.

Mark of the Beast

The Mark of the Beast is Blasphemy!

In September of this year (2017) I wrote a paper on what blaspheming Holy Spirit is. The point being that this is the unforgivable sin because it calls Holy Spirit unclean, which denies His sovereignty based on Mark 3:22-30, 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 and 1 John 5:16-17. Today (12-15-17) while I was watching an episode of the Jim Bakker Show he and his guests were talking about there being no forgiveness for those who take the mark of the beast and it hit me (40 years after the first time I ever heard this) that it is the blasphemy because Holy Spirit is the mark of GOD and to take another mark is to deny Him and His sovereignty.

Most of us know that Holy Spirit is the seal or mark of GOD on believers. “In Him (Jesus) we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace…In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory…And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of GOD, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.” “Then I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the Living GOD. And he cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was granted to harm the earth and the sea, saying, ‘Do not harm the earth, the sea, or the trees till we have sealed the servants of our GOD on their foreheads.’” (Ephesians 1:7, 13-14, 4:30; Revelation 7:2-3 NKJV) (Emphasis mine) Also study these scriptures 2 Timothy 2:14-20; Revelation 3:7-13, 7:2-8, 9:4, 14:1-5, 22:1-5.

If you’ve been a Christian for awhile you know there is much discussion and questioning about what the mark of the beast is, here is what the scriptures say, “He (the false prophet) causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.” (Revelation 13:16-18) (NKJV emphasis mine) It does not matter what the mark is. People will be desperate to be able to buy and sell to feed their families and many Christians will be tempted to take the mark. The sad thing is that many who call themselves Christians will take the mark thinking that GOD will understand because they have not been taught the truth and have not taken the time to study the scriptures themselves. It will be obvious to those who love GOD and obey Him when the mark of the beast is offered as a replacement to the mark of GOD.

This is the unforgivable sin, to reject Holy Spirit for the mark of the beast. Taking on his name or the number of his name will cause Holy Spirit to depart and the person’s name to be removed from the Book of Life. “Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, ‘If anyone worshiping the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of GOD, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.” (Revelation 14:9-11 NKJV) (Emphasis mine) Also study Revelation 14:14-20; 20:4-6, 11-15.

So what is a believer to do? “And they overcame him (the devil) by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death…Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of GOD and the faith of Jesus. Then I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, ‘Write: Blessed are the dead who die in the LORD from now on.’ ‘Yes’, says the Spirit, ‘that they may rest from their labors, and their works follow them.’…And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and the judgment was committed to them. Then I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Jesus and for the Word of GOD, who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. And they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.” (Revelation 12:11, 14:12-13, 20:4 NKJV) (Emphasis mine)

Study Jesus’ teachings especially Revelation. Just going to church, paying tithes, and being involved is religious works and is not salvation. Salvation is repentance and obedience. You must ask GOD to forgive your sins because Jesus became sin for you and you must give your redeemed life to GOD. That means to stop living as the world and religious people live and live as GOD directs you. You can only do this if you have a personal relationship with GOD and study His Word the Bible.

Only those who have the mark of GOD, His Holy Spirit, have their name written in the Lamb’s Book of Life and will live and reign with Him in His eternal Kingdom. Study these scriptures also, Luke 10:17-20; Philippians 4:1-7; 2 Timothy 2:11-19, 3:1-9, 16-17, 4:1-5; 1 Corinthians 3:9-23.

Other times of marking by GOD: The first time a man is marked by GOD is Cain in Genesis 4 as part of his punishment so that no one kills him. In Genesis 32 Jacob is marked and renamed Israel. In Exodus 12 the children of Israel mark their homes so that the Angel of Death passes over their household. In Joshua 6 Rahab of Jericho and her family are marked to be saved. In 1 Samuel 16 David son of Jesse is marked to be the future king of Israel. In Ezekiel 8 & 9 the prophet has a vision of GOD’s judgment where those in Jerusalem who mourned over the sin of Israel were to be marked so they would be saved from its judgment. Study these events and think about the presence of Holy Spirit and His work in each situation.

GOD IS!

The Kingdom of GOD and the Kingdom of Heaven are the same thing; there is only one Kingdom!

GOD created everything that exists; there is nothing that exists that GOD did not create! GOD created everything and GOD maintains everything and GOD redeems everything and GOD does it for His own good pleasure.

So if there is only one Kingdom, the Kingdom of GOD than that means that Lucifer (Satan or the devil) does not have a kingdom of any kind. The devil is a created angelic being that rebelled against GOD, he wanted to usurp GOD and take over His Kingdom. Now he is on the run trying to disrupt GOD’s Kingdom and GOD’s plan for humanity because he is jealous of humanities favored position in GOD’s Kingdom. Enough about the eternally defeated rebellious angelic being for whom there is no redemption, who only wants to harass humans and make our lives miserable and to keep us from GOD’s eternal Kingdom.

GOD who created everything is everywhere (omnipresent), GOD knows everything (omniscient) and GOD lives in us (born again believers, Christians).

STOP and think about that: GOD lives in you!

GOD who created everything and is everywhere and knows everything and is all powerful (omnipotent) lives in every born again believer.

If you prayed and asked Jesus to forgive you for your sins from a sincere heart no matter what words you said, Jesus did it. GOD forgave you your sins and GOD’s Spirit (Holy Spirit) entered into your being (not just your life as some ethereal being hanging around), Holy Spirit entered into your spirit, soul and body as the very presence of the True and Living GOD!

You are born again and GOD dwells in you, you are the Temple of Holy Spirit (GOD)! Stop letting the defeated rebel, the devil, control your life. GOD gave us the victory over him in Christ Jesus! GOD lives in us and we are in GOD’s eternal Kingdom and only we can allow the devil access to our life. He will try to afflict us and he will try to harass us but if we stand in the liberty that Christ gave us when Jesus defeated death and hell and took the keys of their domains then rose from the grave and ascended into Heaven to be enthroned at the right hand of GOD, we will have victory over the devil’s every work.

Review: GOD is everywhere always at all times; GOD knows everything nothing is hidden from GOD; GOD is all powerful, (How can there be anything stronger than GOD who made everything?)! GOD lives in you as a born again believer (Christian, blood washed, redeemed, saved, etc.) So by GOD’s presence in your life stop letting a defeated angelic being defeat you in your life and service to GOD and His Kingdom.

For those of you who have not asked GOD to forgive you for being a sinner or do not really understand what I said above here is a synopsis of the Gospel (Good News) of salvation.

GOD created everything, Lucifer the highest angel in GOD’s Kingdom rebelled and tried to replace GOD, he and all the angels who joined his rebellion were cast to earth until the time of judgment when they will be cast into hell which was created for them. In the mean time man lived in a perfect paradise on earth called Eden, where GOD walked and talked with Adam everyday. There was only one rule, humans were not to eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. One day Lucifer in the guise of a serpent deceived Eve into believing GOD was holding something back from humans by denying them the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. So she took and ate it, then she offered it to Adam who knew better but he ate it also and then they knew that they were naked. This was the entrance of sin into humanity and humanity was now part of Lucifer’s rebellion against GOD and therefore condemned to hell for eternity along with Lucifer and his followers of fallen angels.

That is why GOD was born as a man through a virgin (man’s sinful seed [nature] was not used) as Jesus the Christ (savior of humanity and the world). Jesus lived a sin free life overcoming every temptation that is common to man (lust, greed, fear, pride, rejection, hatred, rebellion) and willingly suffered and died at the hands of His creation, becoming sin for us (because Jesus knew no sin) so that in physical death Jesus could defeat death and hell and take the keys of their domains, Jesus then raised Himself from death by the Power of Holy Spirit. After witnessing on the earth during 40 days Jesus ascended into Heaven to be seated at GOD’s right hand until the Church completed the work of GOD’s Kingdom on the earth.

All of what I have written is easily found in the Bible (GOD’s Word to humanity) all that we need to know about GOD and His Kingdom and our salvation and role in GOD’s Kingdom is found in the Bible. Get yourself a good modern language translation of the Bible and a Bible dictionary and a Bible concordance and study the Bible. Read, look up and cross reference key words and phrases, study the different subjects the Bible talks about, learn what the Bible says about you and everything around you. Just know that GOD does not answer all of our questions there are things that will only be revealed in eternity.

But it you are a believer in Jesus Christ as your savior then He is also your LORD and GOD has a plan for your life as you study the Bible, pray asking GOD to show you and patiently wait on Him (GOD is not in a hurry) GOD will speak to you through the Bible, Holy Spirit and other believers and guide your life and bless you and use you for His Kingdom here on earth

Jesus brought the Kingdom of GOD to the earth and left it with those who believe on Him and follow His Spirit. He will not return until we Christians (His Body) have completed the work of GOD’s Kingdom in the earth.
