God has backed off and turned the US over to its Lusts.

God has turned our nation over to its evil because the Christian community has not turned to Him.

Isaiah 58:1-3,”The Lord told me, “Shout out loud. Do not hold back.  Raise your voice like a trumpet.  Tell my people that they have refused to obey me.  Tell the family of Jacob how much they have sinned.  (2) Day after day they worship me.  They seem ready and willing to know how I want them to live.  They act as if they were a nation that does what is right.  They act as if they have not turned away from my commands.  They claim to want me to give them fair decisions.  They seem ready and willing to come near and worship me. (3) ‘We have gone without food,’ they say. ‘Why haven’t you noticed it?  We have made ourselves suffer.   Why haven’t you paid any attention to us?’

God’s Answer to them and the United States:  Isaiah 59:1-2,(NIRV) “People of Israel (United States), the Lord’s arm is not too weak to save you.  His ears aren’t too deaf to hear your cry for help.  (2) But your sins have separated you from your God. They have caused him to turn his face away from you.   So he won’t listen to you.”

For 8 years I have been on the radio in OKC, OK and simulcast on KTLR.com worldwide  (paying for it with my personal money) telling our people that our Christian society’s Shield of Faith is full of holes because our preachers, evangelists, and teachers are not teaching the pure Word of God, and like Israel above,  going through physical motions of religion which is not acceptable to the Lord because it is so full of errors.   I have visited with many pastors and each one of them told me all is well and their church is doing great.  The failure of our US society is a reflection of the failure of the Christian community, NOT the failure of Christ, but the failure of Christians being Ambassadors sharing His Pure Word.   So much error is added by all denominations that they have been found a liar as stated in Proverbs 30: 5-6, (NIRV)“Every word of God is perfect. He is like a shield to those who trust in him. He keeps them safe. (6) Don’t add to his words.  If you do, he will correct you.  He will prove that you are a liar.” 

Ambassadors must share God’s Pure Word; therefore, our Christian preachers, university teachers, evangelists have been proven liars, and God has turned over our country to an ungodly president and party who voted in the majority to remove God from the platform, for gay marriage and many other ungodly activities.  God has allowed this because His people are too lazy to turn to Him for the truth of His Word, but instead spew out trite statements which sound good but are meaningless and create confusion.

America's Shield of Faith is full of holes!

Ps 138:2 – God has exalted His Word above all His names.

            Jesus exalted to the right hand (authority) of the Father.

Rev 12:11 – And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

Proverbs 30:5-6 states, “Every Word of God is Pure; A shield to those who put their trust in it.  (6) Don’t add to, lest thou be reproved, and thou be made a liar, evidenced by God not backing up what you say or shielding you from the devil’s darts.

JUDGED BY THE WORD.—John 5:22 –Father to Son:  John 12:48 – Son to the Word!

Matt 12:36 – We will answer for every idle word we speak.

Angel Michael to Daniel 12:4,9, “But thou, O Daniel, shut up the Words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased. (9) And he said, ‘Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.”

Rev 5:1-14, --Only Jesus (the slain Lamb) through the Living Word (Christ) is able to open up the Words of the Book and give us understanding.  Jesus – Truth-Living Word-Holy Spirit.

O.T. – God willed, Spoke His Word (Truth) by prophets.

N.T. – God wills, God speaks His Word (Truth) through Jesus to us, Heb 1:1-2.

BELOW ARE AREAS TAUGHT BY MAINLINE DOCTOR’S OF THEOLOGY WHICH ARE CAUSING AMERICANS TO HAVE A VERY POOR SHIELD THAT IS NOT HOLDING BACK THE ONSLAUGHT OF THE DEVIL IN OUR SOCEITY.  ONLY GOD’S PURE WORD WILL SHIELD US FROM THE DEVIL AND CAUSE HIM TO FLEE. 

1.  Faith – Heb 11:1, “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.  Rom 10:17, Ps 119:9 - Faith only comes when we hear and accept God's Word.

FEAR – 2 Tim 1:7 Spirit of fear but of power, Love and a sound mind.

2.  All men have Faith – Romans 12:3 -  Chapter on Gifts of Spirit . 

Deut 32:20 – God; Mark 4:40 – Jesus;  2 Thess 3:2 – Apostle Paul

      Can not place faith – not a commodity/item to put in pocket and do with as you please.

3. We can have what we say! Mark 11:23 – We can only have what God tells us when He gets us out of doubt.  That, what He tells us, is our only confession of faith.  Jehoshaphat – 2 Chron 20:1-26;  David – 2 Sam 5:18-25   Jesse/Katrinia

4. Love – Not three(3) loves!  Only one love – God, 1 John 4:8, 16, “God is Love.”  Philao/Eros are not love – they are just strong feelings of attraction, to say they are love is to “say they are other Gods.” Love isn’t a characteristic of God – He is Love! 

Andrew Wommack selling $100+ pkg on God kind of Love.  There is not a kind of love, there is One Love and the One Love is God!

5. Mercy (Do to others as you would have God do to you.)   Luke 10:37 – Samaritan;  Luke 6:31 – Pray for those who despitefully use u; Bless those who cruse you!

God or His Love on or to mankind.  Psalms 25:10 – Mercy & Truth only in O.T.

Truth – John 17:17.  God (Love) to/on them and He spoke His Word to them.  Ps 25:10 – mercy/truth, covenants/testimonies.

6. Grace (God’s Unmerited Favor) – TOTALLY INCORRECT!  a.  If unmerited were used to distinguish/define grace from “other loves”, then there would have to be “a merited grace.”  Unmerited is a characteristic of all of God’s manifested Love – Mercy, Grace, Compassion, Charity, etc., therefore, unmerited can not be used as a defining word to specify any word used for God’s Love.  b.  Grace is not defined or associated with favor.  Favor is God’s Love to or on His people, which is associated with the one-way Love mercy, not grace.  Mercy is God’s Love on or to His people externally.  Grace is the internal work of God (Love) in His people’s heart, Ez 36:26.  Grace was incorrectly interpreted into and used in the Old Testament.  Each time the word grace was used in the OT it should have been either favor or mercy because PS 25:10 says there was only mercy and truth in the OT to those who obeyed God’s covenant and testimonies.  John 1:14,17 states that grace came by Jesus, and He came in the fullness of M & T.

We have: Mercy – God’s Love on us, Grace – God’s Love in us, and Truth – God speaking to us through Jesus.  Jesus speaks to us through the Spirit – Holy Spirit!

Ez 36:26 –Col 1:27 – Rom 8:9 – Gal 4:6 – 2 Cor 5:17

7. Charity- Vine’s, one of the main dictionaries of Biblical words doesn’t even attempt to define CHARITY, it just says “See Love.”  All of the new versions completely leave out Charity and replace it with Love, which is technically correct, but just saying Love does not give the beauty and special methods of how the Love is being manifested.  Charity is the work of God’s Love in the receptive and obedient heart of one or more of God’s Children who then allow God to flow freely and minister through them to someone else.  This is why in the KJV/Catholic  versions the Apostle Paul says Charity is the fulfillment of the Law – One of God’s Children is loving God with all their heart and by positively receiving and allowing the same Love, God, to pass through them to someone else - they are loving God with all their heart and loving their neighbor as they love themselves.  The work of Charity could also be described as “Faith that worketh by Love,” Gal 5:6,  since faith comes from accepting and obeying God’s Word, and in the work of Charity one or more of God’s Children are receiving and responding in Love to what God has asked them to do.  Faith that worketh by Love and Charity are the same thing, just described by different means of operational words.   Edify---to build up in Christ the Lord!

8. Evil – is what is left in the absence of God.  Rom 1 --When mankind rejects God – He lets them go to their evil way – 2 Ch 7:14.  Our present public schools/society and especially government.  Lawyers – unGodly.

9. Generational Curses – Ezek 18 – No such thing!  Bad personality characteristics or habits can be passed from generation to generation, but these are not CURSES from God!  Abram – Isaac – Jacob – lying, cheating, etc.  My dad an alcoholic, not a curse from God on me.  God was working to get me out of it! Aunt Pauline!

A curse – King Saul, Pharaoh – not just a bad hair day or a lot of bad luck!

No curse from God, but people are choosing to live with curses – 2 Cor 2:10-11, Eph 4:26-27,  Prov 26:2 – CURSE CAUSELESS SHALL NOT COME.

Willfully disobeying God’s Word or will results in us turning in agreement with the devil and allowing him to bring on or in our lives whatever he desires.  Ignorance of God’s Word or will is sometimes covered by God’s mercy, but He does not protect us from everything when we should be seeking Him to find out His will.  We must be actively seeking God’s pure Word, searching the Scriptures (different versions), praying, accepting the Scriptures we already know, to receive more truth from God. 

10. God is in Control – NO!  1 John 5:19 – NIV – whole world lies in the control of the evil one. NAS- (power); Amp- (power), KJV – whole world lieth in wickedness.

MATT 28:18 – All power and authority given unto Jesus!  2 Cor 2 10; Eph 4:26. 

            ANY REJECTION OF GOD’S WORD OR WILL GIVES  devil CONTROL.

            Phil 2:14 – complaining/arguing; John 1:19 – quick to hear/slow to speak/wrath.

            Luke 6:      -pray for those who despitefull use you/curse you/ etc.

            DO U TRUST GOD ENOUGH TO LET HIM HANDLE THE PROBLEM?

11. God changes His mind – Hebrews 13:8- Jesus Christ, same yesterday, today and forever.  Jesus has obviously changed!   Christ, the Living Word manifested in the flesh, has not changed!  Christ was with Moses as stated in Heb 11:26, and Christ, the Living Word (Holy Spirit), is with us today and will be with us forever!  God has not changed in personality, power, authority, or characteristics.

God Changed For:

Moses – Ex32:7-14

Hezekiah/ Isaiah – 2 Kings 20:1-11 God not a respector of persons:

Nineveh – Jonah 3:4-10

God wants to change: Jer 18:8,10; 26:3-13, 2 Chron 7:14.

PRAYER CHANGES GOD – NOT JUST THE PERSON PRAYING!  Devil doesn’t want you to know how important your prayers are, says nothing will happen except you will change your attitude!  The preachers across our nation are so out of fellowship with God and are not getting their payers answered, so they are teaching that God doesn’t change things, only the person praying!

IF  GOD KNOWS EVERYTHING – DOESN’T HE KNOW U WERE GOING TO PRAY AND THAT HE WAS GOING TO ANSWER YOUR PRAYERS --- SO REALLY NOTHING CHANGED – YOU JUST DID WHAT HE HAD ALREADY PLANNED.  NO!

Predestination in our Society is based on God knowing everything.  But --

12. Does God know everything? No!  First lets look at Scriptures that show that God did not hate Esau because when talking about predestination immediately someone will say “Well, God said He hated Esau even before Esau’s birth.”  After discussing Esau, I will show you Scriptures where God in His Sovereignty  gave up His ability to know certain things about us.  This will prove from the Scriptures that God does not know who will go to heaven/hell when people are born, and God did not say He hated Esau. 

First, lets look at Scriptures which show that God did not hate Esau.  God blessed and fought with Esau to give Esau a homeland in Mt. Seir that had before been occupied by giants.  God blessed Esau/Edom with Mt Sier – Deut 2:12 – during 20 years that God was blessing Jacob with wives and wealth.   God never said He hated Esau, Malachi never said God hated Esau, and God did not hate Esau.  

The problem comes from a misunderstanding through the years of Malachi 1: 1-3 – God did not say He hated Esau.  NO!

            GOD DID DESTROY ESAU’S HOMELAND IN LATER YEARS! But not because                        of Esau!

            Problem:  Esau/Edomites 400+ years after Esau died brought God’s curse of Gen 12:3 upon the Esau’s descendants, but not the man ESAU, He was dead!

            Gen 24:23 – 35:29 – “And Isaac gave up the ghost, and died, and was gathered unto his people, being old and full of days: and his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.”

            NOW WE CAN DISCUSS DOES GOD REALLY CHANGE THINGS AND CAUSE THINGS TO HAPPEN WHICH WERE NOT GOING TO HAPPEN WHEN WE PRAY, AND ARE PEOPLE ALREADY PREDESTINATED (or chosen_ TO HEAVEN/HELL BEFORE BIRTH. 

We have seen from the Scriptures that God changed His mind for Moses, Nineveh, King Hezekiah, and God says in the Book of Jeremiah and many other places too that He wants to change, for example, 2 Chron 7:14, which most of you have heard many times, God says,  “If My people, which are called by my mane, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”  God wants to change things, If we will change or turn back to Him and His ways!

SO,  did God really change for Moses, Nineveh, and King Hezekiah or did God already have all this planned and knew what was going to happen and just made it look like He changed?  NO, BECAUSE GOD REALLY DID CHANGE – OUR RESPONSE TO GOD’S LOVE IS ONE OF THE AREAS THAT GOD-IN HIS SOVEREIGNTY GAVE UP THE RIGHT OR ABILITY TO KNOW WHAT OUR PERSONAL DECISIONS TOWARD HIM WOULD BE BEFORE WE MAKE THEM.  He wants our response to His Pure Love to be totally our free will choice – that we must answer for throughout eternity! He won’t make us choose for Him and the devil can not make us chose against God --- it is all our choice!

            LOOK AT THESE TWO AREAS WHERE GOD HAS CHOSEN TO GIVE UP

HIS ABILITY TO KNOW CERTAIN THINGS ABOUT US!  MAYBE MORE, BUT I ONLY KNOW OF TWO.

GOD DOES NOT KNOW OUR FORGIVEN SINS! -- In Is 43:25, God states, “I, even I, am He that blotteth out thy transgressions

 for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.”

                  In  Heb 8:12, God states, “For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness,

and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.”

NOW, I don’t know about all of you, but that means there is a lot about my early life that God does not know now.  There is probably a lot about your children’s misbehaving that you do not remember either- unless they are still doing the same things– see we are created in the image of our Father. 

                  THE SECOND AREA GOD DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT US IS BECAUSE HE HAS GIVEN US FREE WILL AND DOES NOT KNOW THE DECISIONS WE WILL MAKE TO CHOICES WE ARE FACED WITH:  Listen to what God, Himself says about His people, the Children of Israel.”

  God says in Jer 7:31, “And they have built the high places of  Tophet,…to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire: which I commanded them not, neither came it into my heart.”  There are many other Scriptures in which God says He did not know something or completely changed His mind, because He loved people so much, He changed because of their prayers!  Many theologians who helped translate the copies of the Bible, seminary professors and pastors  know these Scriptures are in the Bible, yet they are too cowardly and afraid what their congregations will do or say, so to keep the money coming in they never mention them.  But, in this Scripture, God says he did not know how evil His people would become.  Now, is that just one version of the copies of the Bible misinterpreting the verse?  No – all 26 of the main versions all say the same thing – THAT GOD SAID HE DID NOT KNOW HOW EVIL HIS CHILDREN WOULD BE.

NOW- Now Rom 10:17 – states FAITH comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.  To receive the above Scriptures to faith, Is 43:25, Heb 8:12 and Jer 7:31, means that from now on, you must not teach that God knows everything!  If you do you will be rejecting the above Scriptures to unbelief.  We must accept God’s own words to faith if we are going to accept anything to faith.  There are other Scriptures where God says He didn’t know things.  I won’t give them all here today, you can have the joy of finding some of them yourself. 

SO TO SUMMARIZE THE IMPORTANCE OF WHAT WE JUST COVERED:

A.      God will change things because of our prayers: Not just us, even though we will change with happiness and joy, God will cause things to happen that would never have happened in circumstances of our lives and in others lives because of us just talking to Him(prayer).  Our prayers are important and the devil does not  want you to know or believe what will happen when you start praying seriously, and getting sin our of your life, because then the devil will lose control and be defeated in your life.  Sin is the only thing that blocks our prayers from being answered, Isaiah 59:1-2, not God.

B.      God has not predestined any person to heaven/hell, neither does He know from before our birth who will go to heaven/hell.  Hell was not created for even one person – listen to what Jesus says and accept His words to faith in Matt 25:41, “Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: Isaiah 5:14 – Hell enlarged.

C.      Since God does not know what decisions we will make, we each are totally responsible for whether we make the decisions to go to heaven or to go to hell.  God will not make us make the right decisions, and the devil can not keep us from making the right decisions.  Whether we stand before the Judgment Seat of Christ or stand at the Great White Throne judgment will depend on choices we each make while we are in this physical life.  

D.      FINALLY,  GOD DID NOT HATE ESAU, DID NOT SAY HE HATED ESAU, BUT GOD LOVED ESAU LIKE HE HAS LOVED *EVERYONE ELSE WHO HAS BEEN BORN ON THE EARTH.   * Pharaoh cursed God’s people – Gen 12:3.  JESUS said that hell was not created for even one person.  God wants all of us to choose Him and be with Him in heaven,  so any of you listeners, regardless of your past can call out to God, repenting or turning from your sins, ask for forgiveness and invite the Spirit of Christ, right now to come into your heart, create in you the new heart and adopt you into the family of God.  John 14:6, I am the way, truth and life, no one can honor God the Father and reject the Son or His Word. 

E.      Our image or belief about God – determines how we relate to Him.  Heb 11:6 – We must not only believe God can do things—We must believe that He will hear and answer us if we seek Him diligently., Matt 7:11, Luke 11:13 – ye being evil give good how much more shall your Heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit.

13. God says My ways are not your ways…Is 55.  God is saying their “religious ways are not His ways.”  In Is 55, god is calling a sinful people to Him.  In 57, righteous people are being taken from the evil that is to come.  In Is 58, the religious people are fasting, worshiping, praying; all the things good people should do but they are complaining that God is not listening and answering their prayers.  God has already told them that “their ways were not His ways.”  God now clearly spells out why He doesn’t answer their prayers or ours either--- Is 59:1—SIN.

WE ARE SUPPOSED TO GET KNOWLEDGE/UNDERSTANDINT/WISDOM!

And in the knowledge of God and Jesus Christ, 2 Pet 1:2-5.

Prov 4:4 – Get W and U                   Prov 9:10 – Fear of Lord beginning  W,

Most messages I have heard teach tha “our ways are not God’s ways,” like it is impossible for us to know God, or become lke Him because we are so lowly and incapable of knowing God.  But He wants us to know Him.

      Hosea 4:6 – My people perish for lack of K, because thou hast rejected K, I will

 reject thee.  Rom 12:2 – Renew your mind.  2 Pet 1:2 – Grace/peace multiplied

to u through K of Jesus. 1 Cor 2:16 – We (should) have the mind of Christ –

seeking God!

14. Permissive Will – Eccleasiastis 8:11, “Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.” Prov 30:5 says “Every Word of God is pure.”  Changing any of God’s Word is an evil work.  Moses struck the rock, when God told Him to speak to it – Lost his entrance into the Promised Land.  King Saul offered sacrifices to God after God told him to wait for the Prophet Samuel to offer the sacrifices – God pulled His Spirit from King Saul.  Samson revealed to the Philistine woman Delilah the secret of his strength and God removed His Spirit from him, Judges 16:20, “…And he wist not that the Lord was departed from him.”

1 Sam 5:18-25—David was told he had to obey God’s Word exactly, (24)“… when thou hearest the sound of a going in the tops of the mulberry trees, that then thou shalt bestir thyself: for then shall the Lord go out before thee, to smite the host of the Philistines.”

2 Chron 20:1-26: Jehoshaphat: God said, “It is not your battle but mine, march out the gates, set yourself and watch the victory.”

Rom 11:29, “For the gifts and callings of God are without repentance.” 

2 Tim 1:9,”Who has saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before the world began.” Eph 2:8-10, “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: (9)Not of works, lest any man should boast. (10) For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.” 

Each of us have a special calling, but the only way to find that calling is to seek God with all our heart – Jer 29:13.  If you are refusing to Obey God’s Call, or are refusing to seek God’s Call, you are refusing to allow God’s Spirit (grace) to work in your heart.  If you refuse to seek God you are refusing His work of Grace He wants to work in your heart.  Heb 11:1-4 – We are refusing God’s grace if we refuse or neglect his special call on our lives.

AS CHRISTIANS WE WILL ANSWER:  1 Cor 3:11-15, 2 Cor 5:10, “For we must all appear before the Judgment Seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. (11) Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men:…” Rejecting God’s Call/Word, etc.

Failing to seek God’s special call in our life, unforgiven sin, prejudice, unforgiveness, and failing to serve God are all sin, 2 Chron 12:14 “And he did evil, because he prepared not his heart to seek the Lord.” (Reahobom).

15.  FEAR – 2 Tim 1:7, “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and

of love, and of a sound mind.”  FIRST:  Fear is not an emotion!  As Christians we are Spirit(Christ in us), Soul (mind, feelings, thoughts, & emotions) and our physical (body).  The spirit of fear is the devil not an emotion.   The devil attacking us causes us to have some extreme emotions which we have always just thought of as fear, but that is not correct; emotions are not fear.  Emotions are caused by Fear!   Fear is the spirit of the devil.  Now when we doubt God will protect us(from some harm), or doubt God will help us(teach a class, etc), provide for us(financially, health, etc), THESE DOUBTS open the door and the devil(the spirit) comes in and torments us as much as he can and that is what we call fear – the devil (spirit of fear) tormenting us.  He wants to get us as upset as much as possible so we will not calm down enough to seek and find God’s Will, or we will miss God when He speaks to us.  If he can get us that upset and we miss God, he (the devil) will have control in the situation..  FEAR is a FLAG!  Respond in prayer!  Jehoshaphat – Feared! Every time you recognize any fear or excessive worry – ASK yourself “What about God am I doubting.”  Seek God and get the doubt cleared up and the devil will be defeated and flee – James 4:7.   LET fear be your FLAG of warning, for the rest of your life – Respond by seeking God about your doubt instead of trying to fight the fear, 1 Pet 5:7.—Cast your cares on Jesus for He cares for you, because the devil roams about as a roaring lion seeking whom he can devour. 

There are so more errors being taught in our Christian community.  Christianity is so mixed up, no wonder God is not standing up for us against the devils onslaught through the internal  muslim attack on our country.

What does it mean to be saved, Catholic vs Protestant?

On a Catholic Questions and Answers Blog, The Question was asked:    “What does it mean to be “saved?”  Catholic  vs  Protestant?

I am not sure what the Catholic definition or, since there are so many Protestant groups, what would be the "Protestant" definition, but I would like to comment on what I am basing my "salvation" on.

Jesus says that we must all be taught of God and that those who receive God's teaching will come to Him.  John 6:45, "It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God.  Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me."  Teaching of God is a process that we each must endure.  When God teaches we are a sinner, we must accept we are a sinner or we cannot be "saved," and we have then stopped or dropped out of God's teaching.  Faith comes by hearing God's Word and accepting it, Romans 10:17, "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God," but that is only if we accept and receive what we hear into our hearts to faith.  Hebrews 4:2 states, "For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it."

 If we do accept that we are a sinner, then God will teach us that Jesus is the answer for our sins, and again we are faced with a choice, do we accept that Jesus is our answer or do we reject because we don't want to become "one of those Jesus freaks?"  We have accepted that we are a sinner but if we reject Jesus is our answer, then we cannot be saved.  Jesus says in John 8:24, "I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins."

 If we accept God's teaching that we are sinners and that Jesus is our answer, then He will teach us that we must humble our sinful hearts and ask forgiveness of our sin and invite Jesus to send His Spirit into our hearts.  Knowing that is not salvation, WE MUST DO IT!  When we pray, ask forgiveness, invite the Spirit of Christ into our hearts, the instant He comes in we are changed to a "Child" or Son of God.    Our acceptance by faith that we are a sinner was a MUST step of faith, our acceptance that Jesus was the answer for our sins was a MUST step of faith, our acceptance and humbling our hearts, confessing and asking forgiveness of our sins WAS A MUST step of faith, God's reply by sending the Spirit of Christ into our hearts provides the Spirit of Grace to perform the cleansing and changing of our hearts and making us a child of God.  Romans 8:9, "...now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His."  The instant the Spirit of Christ enters our hearts we become a child of God.  Galatians 4:6-7 also states when we become a child of God, "And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. (7) Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ."  The elements of faith as God taught us, led us to invite and receive the Spirit of Christ into our hearts.  When the Spirit of Christ enters our heart, that is when we are forgiven of our sins, (saved from our sins), receive the changed heart, and become a child of God, a new creature as 2 Corinthians 5:17 states, "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."  God explained what He was going to do for us through the Prophet Ezekiel in Ezekiel 36:26-27, "A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh, (27) And I will put my Spirit within you…" and this Scripture is one of the best descriptions of the work of Grace in our hearts at salvation.   

Our eternal life begins the instant God puts His Spirit in us, for we will always have His Spirit and will just someday shed this old physical body and live with Him in the Spirit.

Endtime Message to start true revival and get God's help in our society.

END TIME WORDS-Daniel 12:4,9

1. 2 Chronicles 7:14, “ If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

GOD TOLD DANIEL AN ENDTIME MESSAGE WOULD COME FORTH

2.     Daniel 12:4 & 9, “But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased (9) And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. Today’s famine of God’s Word –Amos 8:11, “Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord.”  This verse may not be talking about our present society specifically, but it might could have been since our “Christianity” is operating off of a corrupted and confused “Word” with the couple hundred denominations disagreeing on almost all beliefs, and that is easily seen by even salvation requirements being different for all denominations.  Seems like with all of these denominations having ministers who “hear from God weekly to preach” that they should at least be able to “hear from God about the salvation requirements.”  The messages or “words” of the Bible have been closed to us because meanings of our Biblical words have been changed from the original biblical meanings through their everyday use in our society.  Since now the words have different meanings, when a person goes to read the Bible the correct meanings of the Scriptures do not easily come out. The corrupted word definitions are causing readers to get incorrect and confused meanings from the Scriptures.   Without the correct words and messages, we do not have God’s pure Word and that is all He will back up, not our guesses.

3.     God/Word, God/Christ:  The all powerful Living Spoken Word of God created all things; Christ created all things, and God’s Wisdom created all things.   John 1:1-3, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”  Hebrews 11:24-27, “ By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter; (25) Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; (26) Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompense of the reward. (27) By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.”  Proverbs 3:19, “The Lord by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens.”  1 Corinthians 1:24, “But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.” 

WICKED WAYS RESULT  FROM  REJECTING GOD’S PURE WORD- CHRIST

4.     Wicked Ways:  Where does evil or wickedness come from?  First, let’s look at the relationship of a few other words.  Compare wet and dry. We can create wet, but dry is the absence or removal of moisture.  Compare noise and silence.  We can create noise, but silence is the removal or absence of noise.  Compare light and dark. We can create light, but darkness is the removal or absence of light.  Wicked ways result from the evil left by removing or rejecting God or His Living Word who is Christ.  God is love, so hate and evil are what is left when God is rejected, pushed aside or turned from.  When we reject God in the form of His Living Spoken Word, we are turning from God to evil which we call being in unbelief.  God does not create evil, evil is what is left when we reject His Word in disobedience, or push God away by taking all signs, notices, or remembrances of Him out of sight.  Almost every area of our society is in evil because things of God are being intentionally removed from sight or activities by our liberal government judges–and evil is left behind as God moves away.  All of the “Christian” denominations are intentionally rejecting the portions of God’s Word that do not suit the desires of their denomination, and these rejections are “evil ways” which result in the confusion of some denominations even teaching exactly opposite others.  We must become humble to the Word of God and accept His Pure Word, Christ, or God will never step in to assist our country in our troubles.  The Christian community must put aside their pride, submit to God (His Living Word), resist the devil and God will provide the victory.  But this will only happen if enough people join in seeking God’s pure Word, Christ, regardless of what has been believed in the past.  I will show below where our society is teaching completely opposite what the Bible says.  I will show one example now, look at 1 John 5:19.  Look at two or three versions and you will see that the Bible says that the devil is in control of the world.  Yet every time some terrible tragedy happens, every one of the “spiritual leaders” of all denominations will say something like, “Well, we know God is in control, we don’t understand His ways but we know He will work something for good.” Which is an ungodly answer placing the blame on God.  They need to get on their knees and find out why God is not in control and what we must do to become the people that He will be in control of.   I will explain later in this article.  

5.     Christ is God’s Pure Spoken Word:   We can only receive faith by accepting God’s Pure Word, Christ.  Any of God’s Word which has been changed, added to, or subtracted from is our word, regardless how good or great it sounds, or how many people we get to agree with us, God still will not back up our word, only His pure Word.  Proverbs 30:5-6, “Every Word of God is pure: He is a shield unto them that put their trust in Him. (6) Add thou not unto His Words, lest He reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.”  Psalms 12:6, “The Words of the Lord are pure Words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.”  Psalms 18:30, “As for God, His way is perfect: the Word of the Lord is tried: He is a buckler to all those that trust in Him.”  Revelations 22: 18-19, “For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, ‘If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: (19) And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.”   The Christian community must join humbly together to seek the “one faith” of Ephesians 4:5. 

6.     Turn from wicked ways:  The one and only way to turn from evil and wicked ways to be pleasing to God –is to accept His manifestation to us through His Living Word, Christ, into our hearts to faith.  Hebrews 11:6, “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.”  How do Christians reject Christ daily?  At the Judgment Seat of Christ we must answer for good and bad.  The bad is when we reject Christ daily and willfully give satan advantage and control in our lives.  Wicked ways of Christians given below explain why Christianity does not have the influence in our society that it would if we were letting Christ, God’s daily Living Word to us, rule or guide our lives.  We cannot resist and reject Christ and then restrain the ungodly devilish attack on our nation by the muslims and ACLU with our power, for God says, in Zechariah 4:6, “Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit” and in James 4:7 the Scripture says, “Submit yourselves therefore to God, resist the devil and he will flee from you.”  We must submit to His Pure Word, Christ, and not the denominational changed words.  The devil has worked to confuse God’s Word in everyway he can to keep us from having the power of God, Christ, working in and through us against him.  If the devil can deceive us, trick us, or in any way get us to change God’s Word, then even though we go through the correct religious acts like the Israelites in Isaiah 58:2-3, we will be powerless (Christless), against the devil.  That is why we are not having victory over the ACLU, communists and muslims, and with very little restraint of them expanding.  So many Christians are not really lifting up Christ, the Living Word, but they are lifting up the modified word of their denominations with no power and then just claiming when bad things happen that God’s in control: it is His fault because He works in mysterious ways, or it is not for us to understand, or in the end times it is just supposed to be that way.  NO, it is never supposed to be that way!  We, the total Christian community, are a confused joke to society while running around screaming and shouting great things about God that is not God’s pure Words, and as Proverbs 30:5-6 says above, God is not backing us up!  We as God’s ambassadors are supposed to be speaking His Pure Word all the time, and making the devil flee!  We are supposed to be submitting to Him and having the devil flee because of the Pure Word, Christ, that we have spoken, or what Christ has spoken through us.  When we speak the Pure Word, Christ, it is God speaking thru us, and He will then back His Word and us up!  He even backed up the donkey that He spoke through to Baalam.   

7.     Wicked Ways of Christians: Ministers, leaders, teachers, or anyone in other positions of responsibility for guiding others will be held accountable for not seeking the “one faith” which comes from the “pure Word.”   These people will have even more responsibility because their positional influence is to many more people, but that will not take away from our own personal responsibility.  Ministers of all denominations and other groups have been “lazy” in searching the Scriptures and seeking to draw us into the one faith.

a.     ONE FAITH: Ephesians 4:4-6, “There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; (5) One Lord, one faith, one baptism, (6) One God and Father of all,…”   

b.     SEEK ONE FAITH: Ephesians 4:11-14, “ And He gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; (12)  For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: (13) Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ:”

c.      GIVES SATAN CONTROL:  2 Corinthians 2:10-11, “To whom ye forgive anything, I forgive also: for if I forgave anything, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ; (11)  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.”  Ministers are failing to teach how we give satan advantage and control in our lives and that many Christians are suffering curses from satan which God allows because we have rejected some of God’s Word and have willfully given control to the devil.

d.      GIVES SATAN CONTROL: Ephesians 4:26-27, “Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: (27) Neither give place to the devil.”  Ministers are failing to teach that holding on to anger and letting it grow in our hearts is rejecting God’s Word and is giving place or advantage to the devil.  Any rejection of God is evil so during this time the devil will bring more evil in our lives and God will allow it because we made the choice to reject His Word. 

e.       GIVES SATAN CONTRO;  Hebrews 3:12, 19, “Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God…(19) So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.”  When we reject any of God’s Word or Will it is evil and we will be turning willfully to the devil and giving him control, even if it is through our ignorance by accepting false doctrines.  We are personally responsible for seeking God for His Pure Word and cannot use that for an excuse because we each can turn to the Lord for the truth.   Ignorance is not bliss!

f.        GIVES SATAN CONTROL:  Philippians 2:14, “Do all things without murmurings and disputings:” Receiving and accepting this verse to faith! It is not easy!  To do so means that from now on when you catch yourself arguing or fussing, you must stop ask God’s forgiveness and truly try to change from doing that in the future. 

g.      GIVES SATAN CONTROL: Hebrews 11:1, Most ministers teach that this verse is God’s definition of faith, “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”  This verse only says “that when our hopes are being fulfilled, faith is substance fulfilling the hopes even though we cannot see it.”  We know faith is being manifested when our hopes are being fulfilled even though we cannot see the faith doing it.

h.       GIVES SATAN CONTROL:  Most ministers teach that everyone has faith, and             that all we do for salvation is place our faith in God.  Romans 12:3, “ For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.” Every person does not have a measure of faith.  God said in Deuteronomy 32:20, “And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be: for they are a very froward generation, children in whom is no faith.”  Jesus said in Mark 4:40, “And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? How is it that ye have no faith?”  And the Apostle Paul who authored Romans 12:3 above says in 2 Thessalonians 3:2, “ And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith.” God, Jesus and the Apostle Paul state that all men do not have faith.  Faith comes from hearing and willfully choosing to receive God’s Word into our hearts.

i.       There are many more errors being taught by the “Christian community” that I have written in my books and show in my videos which can been seen by a link from my website:  www.rahardin.com .   Click on the face of the books to get a summary of each book.  Look at the videos, we have to get our “Christian” community turned to the pure Word of God or we Christians will be suffering like Sudan Christians with another four years of Obama.     

8.     God Will Heal Our Land:

a.     Leviticus 26:4, “Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.”

b.     Deuteronomy 11:14, “That I will give you the rain of your land in his due season, the first rain and the latter rain, that thou mayest gather in thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil.

c.       Matthew 6:33, “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

d.      Isaiah 41:19, “I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.

e.       1 Kings 18:1, “Go, shew thyself unto Ahab; and I will send rain upon the earth.”

f.        Psalm 114:7-8, “Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob; (8) Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.”

g.      Joshua 4:23, “ For the Lord your God dried up the waters of Jordan from before you, until ye were passed over, as the Lord your God did to the Red sea, which he dried up from before us, until we were gone over:”

h.       2 Kings 2:21, “ And he went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast the salt in there, and said, Thus saith the Lord, I have healed these waters; there shall not be from thence any more death or barren land.”

i.        Psalm 33:7, “He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses.”

j.        Genesis 1:1, “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.”  Therefore, He can surely heal it and bring back the balance of seasons with proper rain.

9. Summary:  As the Scripture stated about the Israelites, God can and will change things for our society if we obey what He said to them in 2 Chronicles 7:14, “ If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive (us) their sin, and will heal (our) their land.
