"My Sheep Hear My Voice, And I Know Them, And They Follow Me" John 10:27. by peteregwu(m): 11:57pm On Sep 05, 2013
"MY SHEEP HEAR MY VOICE, AND I
KNOW THEM, AND THEY FOLLOW
ME" John 10:27.
Brethren, the precious time God has
given to many is running out. But
many does not seem to understand.
They say after all "He is merciful,
and His mercy endureth forever."
But before God it is not so. Yes, the
mercy of God is forever, however it
is for an appointed time for the
sinners and backsliders. But for the
saints - His true children, His mercy
goes beyond their death, and it is
forever. In the time of the Lord, God
allows His light to shine so that that
which is of darkness will not
overcome, subdue or overpower us.
That is why the bible says, " And the
light shineth in darkness; and the
darkness comprehended it not."
John 1:5 KJV. Now when the light
shines in darkness it will illuminate
darkness, which enables us to see.
we pass through without fear of the
unknown, everything becomes clear,
and at the same time helping us not
to fall into any danger. For instance,
if a blind man walks without any
aid, such person is bound to fall
into what might cause destruction to
his/her life or health.
Fortunately, this light has been
made known to many, if not all.
They that saw/see the light delight
in it, for in the light, their evil
deeds was/is made known to them.
Being made known the end of those
involved in such acts, they become
sorrowful, feeling sorry and sober.
Because of there destructive end,
they cried for help. A voice spoke
out in the light, "Come unto me, all
ye that labour and are heavy
laden, and I will give you rest. [29]
Take my yoke upon you, and learn
of me; for I am meek and lowly in
heart: and ye shall find rest unto
your souls. [30] For my yoke is
easy, and my burden is light."
Matthew 11:28-30 KJV.
They were glad at the one and only
voice that came from the light. they
desire to know who that light is,
and they searched with all their
hearts, strength and their might.
("And ye shall seek me, and find
me , when ye shall search for me
with all your heart." Jeremiah
29:13 KJV). Because they searched
with all their hearts, the one that
spoke to them being so merciful and
compassionate to them that thirst
for righteousness, declared to them,
"........I am the light of the world:
he that followeth me shall not
walk in darkness, but shall have
the light of life." John 8:12 KJV.
They eventually found Him that
takes away the burdens of sin. They
left all and followed Him. Believing
and trusting Him to lead them in
that promise which was made
known to them. Then they asked
Him(Jesus) ".....Lo, we have left all,
and followed thee." and in reply He
declared to them, "......Verily I say
unto you, There is no man that
hath left house, or parents, or
brethren, or wife, or children, for
the kingdom of God's sake, [30]
Who shall not receive manifold
more in this present time, and in
the world to come life
everlasting." Luke 18:29-30 KJV.
They were much delighted at the
certainty and assuranceof the
promise of eternal life and they
feared not their life unto death.
Having the faith and assurance that
even if they die for such a course,
He that gave the promise will bring
them back to life at the last day,
even at the appointed time. "For
they that say such things declare
plainly that they seek a country.
[15] And truly, if they had been
mindful of that country from
whence they came out, they might
have had opportunity to have
returned. [16] But now they desire
a better country , that is, an
heavenly: wherefore God is not
ashamed to be called their God:
for he hath prepared for them a
city." Hebrews 11:14-16 KJV.
But for those that reject the light it
will be unfortunate for them. Their
destruction is coming if they refuse
to repent of their sins and embrace
the light. Jesus is that light. The best
time is now and the only way is to
acknowledge, repent ad forsake your
sins. Remember the bible says now
is the acceptable time. "(For he
saith, I have heard thee in a time
accepted, and in the day of
salvation have I succoured thee:
behold, now is the accepted time;
behold, now is the day of
salvation.)" 2 Corinthians 6:2 KJV.
You can't run away or hide from the
coming judgment of God. It is
certain that God will destroy man
again just like He did it in time of
Noah. But this time it's going to be
terrible. The time is fast
approaching and no sinner can
escape it. Every one one of them
will be cast into hell fire for sure.
No matter how small or big your sin
is, you can never see or enter
heaven. "Know ye not that the
unrighteous shall not inherit the
kingdom of God? Be not deceived:
neither fornicators, nor idolaters,
nor adulterers, nor effeminate,
nor abusers of themselves with
mankind, [10] Nor thieves, nor
covetous, nor drunkards, nor
revilers, nor extortioners, shall
inherit the kingdom of God." 1
Corinthians 6:9-10 KJV.
The worldly people can't make
heaven. You that emulate or copy
worldly people, you won't make it to
heaven at all. "Now the works of
the flesh are manifest, which are
these ; Adultery, fornication,
uncleanness, lasciviousness, [20]
Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred,
variance, emulations, wrath,
strife, seditions, heresies, [21]
Envyings, murders, drunkenness,
revellings, and such like: of the
which I tell you before, as I have
also told you in time past, that
they which do such things shall
not inherit the kingdom of God."
Galatians 5:19-21 KJV.
Wordly dressers cant make it. Don't
you know your way of dressing can
also send you to hell fire? Are you
shocked to here this? It is true!
Your way of dressing should be
Godly. As a woman don't copy the
musician or people of the world.
Don't wear make-ups; painting your
lips, eyes, finger nails. Putting on
attachment or weave-on that is not
part of your natural hair. As woman
don't wear men's wears; don't put
on pants/trousers. For you are a
woman of God and not of the world.
It is an abomination for a woman to
be involved in that, it is an
abominable doctrine to wear men's
wears. And men should stop putting
on skirts or wears set aside for
women, for it also an abomination.
"The woman shall not wear that
which pertaineth unto a man,
neither shall a man put on a
woman's garment: for all that do
so are abomination unto the Lord
thy God." Deuteronomy 22:5 KJV.
As a Christian never you wear
tattoos on your flesh, it is an
abomination also. "Ye shall not
make any cuttings in your flesh
for the dead, nor print any marks
upon you: I am the Lord." Leviticus
19:28 KJV.
Be careful people, the time is short.
Repent and truly surrender to Jesus.
The rapture is at hand. Free yourself
from every devilish attachment on
you now before it's too late.
Anything that God has called
abomination can never enter
heaven. If you don't believe this,
then you must be a joker.
"And there shall in no wise enter
into it any thing that defileth,
neither whatsoever worketh
abomination, or maketh a lie: but
they which are written in the
Lamb's book of life." Revelation
21:27 KJV.
One thing you should know is that
all this abominable things and all
worldliness will be cast into hell fire
and those involved in it. Please run
for your dear eternal life now.
Revelation 21:8 KJV
"But the fearful, and unbelieving,
and the abominable, and
murderers, and whoremongers,
and sorcerers, and idolaters, and
all liars, shall have their part in
the lake which burneth with fire
and brimstone: which is the
second death."
