Christianity EtcThe Beautiful Heaven And The Horrible Hell by FreshGreen(op): 9:57am On Apr 08, 2015
THE BEAUTIFUL HEAVEN AND HORRIBLE HELL
( The Summarized Testimony of an 8 Years old Girl who encountered Jesus Christ)

HEAVEN
.....we soon arrived to a place with beautiful streets, so beautiful. I have never seen or touched such things on Earth. The streets were shining! The Lord said, "My servant, touch this street of gold, because you and My people will live here, because here My people will ride very soon." I saw the reflection of the Lord and me riding together.

After that we arrived at the crystal sea, it was so beautiful. While I was riding with the Lord through that precious sea He told me, "My servant, all this is not Mine, all this is for My people. All that you can touch I have prepared it with so much love for My people." Then He said, "Servant come here, because I will show you other things."

We then arrived in a beautiful place where I could see the glory of God, and feel His Power. It was a big beautiful place. I saw many tables, so I asked the Lord, "Lord what are all these tables are for?" He said, "Servant, remember the Wedding of the Lamb, remember that on these tables we will celebrate the Wedding of the Lamb." I saw countless numbers of tables, and I could not see the end of them. There were angels at each table, so I asked the Lord, "Lord, why is there an angel at each table and at each chair?" The Lord said, "My servant, these angels are decorating the tables, these angels are getting ready each table because I am already preparing everything."

Dear brothers, those tables were so shiny, all of them were made of gold. The tables were very nicely decorated. I saw how each angel was putting on the fork, the knife, the spoon, the glasses, the dishes, all made of gold, so beautiful. The Lord told me, "Servant, tell My people to get ready because very soon I will take them with Me so they can come here and enjoy with Me in the Wedding [Marriage Supper] of the Lamb."

It was so beautiful, the presence of the Lord could be felt there, such glory and majesty! The Lord said, "Servant, come here because I will show you other things." We arrive at a place with many beautiful doors, so many beautiful doors. I said, "Lord what's behind those doors?" He said, "Behind these doors are My disciples, behind these doors are My apostles, behind these doors are all those who once walked over the Earth praising and glorifying My Name."

MARY
We began to ride again and arrive at a door that was half-opened, and the Lord said, "Servant come here, come here because behind this door is Mary. Get close and hear what she is saying, so you can go and tell My people, so you can tell the people how Mary is suffering." I got closer and saw a young lady, such a beautiful young lady, so beautiful, her face was so pretty. She was looking through a very tiny window. She was kneeling down and looking to the face of the Earth, crying with tremendous pain.

She said, "Why are you worshiping me? Why, if I do not have any power! Why are you worshiping me? I do not do anything! Do not worship me! Do not bow before me! For I cannot save you! The only one that can save, the only one that can redeem you is Jesus, who died for all mankind! Many people say that I have power, that I can perform miracles, but that is a lie! I do not do anything! Almighty God was satisfied with me and He used my womb so that Jesus could be born and save everyone, but I don't have any power. I cannot do anything! Do not bow before me! Do not worship me! For I am not worthy of worship. The only one that is worthy, the only one that you bow before and adore is Jesus! He is the only one that heals and saves!"

I could see how that young lady was in such tremendous pain, full of anguish and crying. She said, "No! No! Do not worship me! Why do you bow before me? I don't do anything!" You see dear brothers, it was a tremendous thing to look at this young lady, how she was crying with such pain and sadness.

HELL
We walked by some walls and I heard so many souls shouting, shouts of pain and anguish....I saw how those demons went up and provoked crashes, slaughters, fights, divorces and all kind of evil things. Then they would come down and reported to him everything they did. And satan would laughed and laughed. satan gave prizes to the demons, and the demons began to celebrate him, and praise him and sing for him.

I saw how satan had so many plans to destroy Christians, big plans to destroy the servants of God. I saw huge churches and congregations that were full of modernism. The Lord said, "Look servant, these churches are possessed by satan, and they won’t be able to go up with Me."

The Lord showed me how demons provoked so many killing, and all those souls would then arrive in this damnation, a horrible place. I saw a furnace, and the Lord said, "Look servant, this is the lake of fire, and this is hell."

HOLY CITY
After that we left and the Lord said, "Look, servant I will show you the Holy City, so you can go and tell My people the grandeur that I have for them." We went up and arrive at a beautiful place, where there were beautiful trees, pines so high. Everything was so beautiful there. I could feel such a sense peace.

Then we continued riding, and I saw so many beautiful butterflies and animals. The Lord said, "Servant all these things here are for My people. Tell My people that very soon, they are going to be here, riding in this holy city."

We arrive at a beautiful place that was full of angels. One angel was huge, and had a big trumpet to his mouth. I said, "Lord, that angel, what does that mean?" The Lord replied, "Look servant, this angel is waiting for a signal, this angel is waiting for an order that I give, so he can begin to sound the trumpet, and when this angel begins to play that trumpet, My people will be taken up, raised, and transformed. But be sure of one thing servant, this trumpet will be just heard by those that are watching! So go and tell My people to watch, tell to My people don’t sleep, because if you fall sleep, you won’t hear the trumpet, tell to My people to be watching, for those that are sleeping, I won’t be able to raise them up."

-- After that I saw another vision of a very bright shining clock. It was made of gold. The time shown was twelve o'clock. But I saw a hand make the clock go back to eleven o'clock. The Lord told me, "Look, My servant, I take the time back because My people are not prepared as I want them to be, I am taking the time back, that is why, because of My great mercy I am giving a last chance, so that everyone that comes to My feet shall receive eternal life"

- Jannet Balderas Canela.

Have you made up your mind where you will spend your eternity? Is your name written in the Book of Life? A better question is, Have you surrendered your life to Jesus and following Him? As you read this revelation, open up your mind to the Spirit of Lord and surrender to the Lord Jesus Christ, do not harden your heart at this point, because that will be too dangerous. Repent, confess, accept Jesus as your Lord and begin to follow Him.

To be with Jesus in heaven, we must be like Him on earth - in holiness and righteousness.

“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts.” Hebrews 4:6

If you would like to surrender your life to Jesus Christ or you want to rededicate your life to Jesus, all you need to do is to repent, confess your sins and forsake them as you accept Jesus Christ into your life, for more explanation on genuine salvation and rededication, please click on this link, read and pray as directed https://www.facebook.com/notes/revelation-of-truth-evangelical-ministries-rtem/how-to-be-saved-and-start-a-new-life-in-jesus/270674586372252

Christianity EtcLonging Wish In Hell - 2 by FreshGreen(op): 8:35am On Apr 07, 2015
LONGING WISH IN HELL (Part 2)
I had not been able to sleep or eat since I was in hell the night before. Each day I re-lived hell. When I closed my eyes, all I could see was hell. My ears could not shut out the cries of the damned. Just like a television program, I re-lived all the things I had witnessed in hell over and over. Each night I was in hell, and each day I labored to find just the right words to bring this frightful thing to all the world.

Jesus appeared to me again and said, "Tonight we are going into the right leg of hell, My child. Don't be frightened, for I love you and I am with you."

The face of the Lord was sorrowful, and His eyes were filled with great tenderness and deep love. Though those in hell were forever lost, I knew that He still loved them and would for all eternity.

"My child," He said, "God, our Father, gave each one of us a will so that we could choose whether we would serve Him or Satan. You see, God did not make hell for His people. Satan deceives many into following him, but hell was made for Satan and his angels. It is not My desire, nor that of My Father, that anyone should perish." Tears of compassion ran down Jesus' cheeks.

He began to speak again, "Remember My words in the days ahead as I show you hell. I have all power in heaven and earth.' Now, at times it will seem to you that I have left you, but I have not. Also, at times we will be seen by the evil forces and lost souls, while at other times we will not be. No matter where we go, be at peace and fear not to follow Me."

We went on together. I followed closely behind Him crying. For days I had been crying, and I could not shake off the very presence of hell which was ever before me. I cried mostly inside. My spirit was very sad.

We arrived at the right leg of hell. Looking ahead, I saw that we were on a pathway which was dry and burned. Screams filled the dirty air, and the stench of death was everywhere. The odor was sometimes so repugnant that it made me sick to my stomach. Everywhere was darkness except for the light which emanated from Christ and the flaming pits, which dotted the landscape as far as I could see.

All at once, demons of all kinds were going past us. Imps growled at us as they went by. Demon spirits of all sizes and shapes were talking to each other. Out ahead of us, a big demon was giving orders to small ones. We stopped to listen, and Jesus said, "There is also an invisible army of evil forces that we do not see here-demons such as evil spirits of sickness."

"Go!" the larger demon said to the smaller imps and devils. "Do many evil things. Break up homes and destroy families. Seduce weak Christians, and mis-instruct and mislead as many as you can. You shall have your reward when you return. Remember, you must be careful of those who have genuinely accepted Jesus as their Savior. They have the power to cast you out. Go now across the earth. I have lots of others up there already and still have others to send. Remember, we are servants of the prince of darkness and of the powers of the air."

At that, the evil forms began to flee up and out of hell. Doors in the top of the right leg of hell opened and shut very fast to let them out. Also, some went up and out the funnel we had come down.

I will try to describe the looks of these evil beings. The one speaking was very large, about the size of a full-grown grizzly bear, brown in color, with a head like a bat and eyes that were set very far back into a hairy face. Hairy arms fell to his sides, and fangs came out of the hair on his face.

Another one was small like a monkey with very long arms and with hair all over his body. His face was tiny, and he had a pointed nose. I could see no eyes on him anywhere.

Still another had a large head, large ears and a long tail, while yet one more was as large as a horse and had smooth skin. The sight of these demons and evil spirits, and the terrible odor that came from them, made me sick to my stomach. Everywhere I looked were demons and devils. The biggest of these demons, I learned from the Lord, were getting their orders straight from Satan.

Jesus and I walked on down the pathway until we came to another pit. Cries of pain, unforgettably sorrowful sounds, were everywhere. My Lord, what is next? I thought.

We walked directly past some of the evil beings, which didn't seem to see us, and stopped at another pit of fire and brimstone. In this next pit was a large-framed man. I heard him preaching the gospel. I looked in amazement to Jesus for an answer, for He always knew my thoughts. He said, "While he was on earth, this man was a preacher of the gospel. At one time he spoke the truth and served me."

I wondered what this man was doing in hell. He was about six feet tall, and his skeleton was a dirty, grayish color, like a tombstone. Parts of his clothing still hung on him. I wondered why the flames had left these torn and tattered clothes and had not burned them up. Burning flesh was hanging from him, and his skull seemed to be in flames. A terrible odor came from him.

I watched the man spread his hands as if he were holding a book and begin to read Scriptures from the make-believe book. Again, I remembered what Jesus had said: "You have all your senses in hell, and they are a lot stronger here." The man read Scripture after Scripture, and I thought it was good. Jesus said to the man with great love in His voice, "Peace, be still." Immediately, the man stopped talking and turned slowly to look at Jesus.

I saw the man's soul inside this skeletal form. He said to the Lord, "Lord, now I will preach the truth to all the people. Now, Lord, I'm ready to go and tell others about this place. I know that while I was on earth, I didn't believe there was a hell, nor did I believe You were coming again. It was what people wanted to hear, and I compromised the truth to the people in my church. I know I didn't like anyone who was different in race or color of skin, and I caused many to fall away from You. I made my own rules about heaven and right and wrong. I know that I led many astray, and I caused many to stumble over Your Holy Word, and I took money from the poor. But, Lord, let me out, and I will do right. I won't take money from the church anymore. I have repented already. I will love people of every race and color."

Jesus said, "You not only distorted and misrepresented the Holy Word of God, but you lied about your not knowing the truth. The pleasures of life were more important to you than truth. I visited you Myself and tried to turn you around, but you would not listen. You went on your own way, and evil was your lord. You knew the truth, but you would not repent or turn back to Me. I was there all the time. I waited for you. I wanted you to repent, but you did not. And now the judgment has been set."

Pity was on the face of Jesus. I knew that if the man had listened to the Savior's call, he would not be here now. O people, please listen.

Jesus spoke to the backslider again, "You should have told the truth, and you would have turned many to righteousness with God's Word, which says that all unbelievers will have their part in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone. You knew the way of the cross. You knew the way of righteousness. You knew to speak the truth. But Satan filled your heart with lies, and you went into sin. You should have repented with sincerity, not halfway. My Word is true. It does not lie. And now it is too late, too late." At that, the man shook his fist at Jesus and cursed Him.

With sorrow, Jesus and I walked on to the next pit. The backslidden preacher was still cursing and angry at Jesus. As we walked past the pits of fire, the hands of the lost reached out to Jesus, and in pleading voices they called out to Him for mercy. Their bony hands and arms were gray-black from the burning-no live flesh or blood, no organs, only death and dying. Inside myself I was crying, O earth, repent. If you don't, you'll come here. Stop before it is too late.

We stopped at another pit. I felt such pity for all of them and such sorrow that I was physically weak and could hardly stand. Great sobs shook me. "Jesus, I hurt so inside," I said.

From the pit a woman's voice spoke to Jesus. She stood in the center of the flames, and they covered her whole body. Her bones were full of worms and dead flesh. As the flames flickered up around her, she raised her hands towards Jesus, crying, "let me out of here. I will give You my heart now, Jesus. I will tell others about Your forgiveness. I will witness for You. I beg You, please let me out!"

Jesus said, "My Word is true, and it declares that all must repent and turn from their sins and ask Me to come into their lives if they are to escape this place. Through My blood there is forgiveness of sins. I am faithful and just and will forgive all those who come to Me. I will not cast them out."

He turned, looked at the woman and said, "If you had listened to Me and had come to Me and repented, I would have forgiven you."

The woman asked, "Lord, is there no way out of here?"

Jesus spoke very softly. "Woman," He said, "you were given many opportunities to repent, but you hardened your heart and would not. And you knew My Word said that all LovePeddler mongers will have their part in the lake of fire."

Jesus turned to me and said, "This woman had sinful affairs with many men, and she caused many homes to be broken apart. Yet through all this, I loved her still. I came to her not in condemnation but with salvation. I sent many of My servants to her that she might repent of her evil ways, but she would not. When she was a young woman, I called her, but she continued to do evil. She did many wrongs, yet I would have forgiven her if she had come to Me. Satan entered into her, and she grew bitter and would not forgive others. She went to church just to get men. She found them and seduced them. If she had only come to Me, her sins would all have been washed away by My blood. Part of her wanted to serve Me, but you cannot serve God and Satan at the same time. Every person must make a choice as to whom they will serve."

"Lord,” I cried, “give me strength to go on” I was shaking from my head to my feet because of the horrors of hell.

Jesus said to me, “Peace, be still”

"Help me, Lord” I cried. “Satan doesn't want us to know the truth about hell. In all my wildest dreams, I never thought that hell would be like this. Dear Jesus, when will this end?”

"My child,” Jesus replied, “only the Father knows when the end will come." Then He spoke to me again and said, "Peace, be still.” Great strength came upon me.

Jesus and I walked on through the pits. I wanted to pull each person I passed from the fire and rush them to the feet of Jesus. I wept much inside. I thought to myself, I never want my children to come here.

At last, Jesus turned to me and said quietly, “My child, we will go to your home now. Tomorrow night we shall return to this part of hell.”

Back at my home I cried and cried. During the day I re-lived hell and the horror of all those people there. I told everyone I met during the day about hell. I told them that the pain of hell is beyond belief.

Those of you who read this book, please, I beg of you, repent of your sins. Call on Jesus and ask Him to save you. Call on Him today. Do not wait until tomorrow. Tomorrow may not come. Time is quickly running out. Fall on your knees and be cleansed from your sins. Be good to each other. For Jesus' sake, be kind and forgiving to one another.

If you are angry with someone, forgive him. No anger is worth going to hell for. Be forgiving as Christ forgives us of our sins. Jesus is able to keep us if we have a repentant heart and will let His blood cleanse us from all sin. Love your children, and love your neighbor as yourself.

The Lord of the churches says, "Repent and be saved!"
- Mary K Baxter

Christianity EtcLonging Wish In Hell - 1 by FreshGreen(op): 10:42am On Apr 06, 2015
LONGING WISH IN HELL (1)
YOU HAVE TO READ THIS: The clear vision of hell revealed, don't let anybody deceive you again!

......A horrible odor filled the air. Jesus said to me, "In the left leg of hell are many pits. This tunnel branches off into other parts of hell, but we will spend some time in the left leg first. These things you are about to see will always be with you. The world must know about the reality of hell. Many sinners and even some of My people do not believe that hell is real. You have been chosen by Me to reveal these truths to them. Everything I will show you about hell and all the other things I will show you are true."

Jesus had shown Himself to me in the form of a bright light, brighter than the sun. The form of a man was in the center of that light. Sometimes I saw Jesus as a man, but at other times He was in the form of a spirit.

He spoke again, "Child, when I speak, the Father has spoken. The Father and I are one. Remember to love above all else and to forgive one another. Come now, follow Me."

As we walked, evil spirits fled from the presence of the Lord. "O God, O God," I cried. "What is next?"

As I said previously, I had all my senses in hell. All those in hell have all their senses. Mine were working now in full force. Fear was on every side, and inexpressible dangers lurked everywhere. Each step I took was more horrible than the one before.

There were doorways about the size of small windows, opening and shutting very fast at the top of the tunnel. Screams filled the air as many evil creatures flew by us, up and out of the gateways of hell. Soon we were at the end of the tunnel. I was trembling with fright because of the danger and fear around us.

I was so thankful for the protection of Jesus. I thank God for His almighty power to protect us, even in the pits of hell. Even with that protecting shield, I kept thinking, Not my will, Father, but Yours be done.

I looked at my body. For the first time I noticed that I was in a spirit form, and my form was in the shape of myself. I wondered what was next.

Jesus and I stepped from the tunnel onto a path with wide swaths of land on each side of it. There were pits of fire everywhere as far as the eye could see. The pits were four feet across and three feet deep and shaped like a bowl. Jesus said, "There are many pits like this in the left leg of hell. Come, I will show you some of them."

I stood beside Jesus on the path and looked into one of the pits. Brimstone was embedded in the side of the pit and glowed red like hot coals of fire. In the center of the pit was a lost soul who had died and gone to hell. Fire began at the bottom of the pit, swept upward and clothed the lost soul in flames. In a moment the fire would die down to embers, then with a rushing sound would sweep back over the tormented soul in the pit.

I looked and saw that the lost soul in the pit was caged inside a skeleton form. "My Lord," I cried at the sight, "Can't you let them out?" How awful was the sight! I thought, This could be me. I said, "Lord, how sad it is to see and know that a living soul is in there."

I heard a cry from the center of the first pit. I saw a soul in the form of a skeleton, crying, "Jesus, have mercy!"

"O, Lord!" I said. It was the voice of a woman. I looked at her and wanted to pull her out of the fire. The sight of her broke my heart.

The skeleton form of a woman with a dirty-grey mist inside was talking to Jesus. In shock, I listened to her. Decayed flesh hung by shreds from her bones, and, as it burned, it fell off into the bottom of the pit. Where her eyes had once been were now only empty sockets. She had no hair.

The fire started at her feet in small flames and grew as it climbed up and over her body. The woman seemed to be constantly burning, even when the flames were only embers. From deep down inside her came cries and groans of despair, "Lord, Lord, I want out of here!"

She kept reaching out to Jesus. I looked at Jesus, and there was great sorrow on His face. Jesus said to me, "My child, you are here with Me to let the world know that sin results in death, that hell is real.

I looked at the woman again, and worms were crawling out of the bones of her skeleton. They were not harmed by the fire. Jesus said, "She knows and feels those worms inside."

"God, have mercy!" I cried as the fire reached its peak and the horrible burning started all over again. Great cries and deep sobs shook the form of this woman-soul. She was lost. There was no way out. "Jesus, why is she here?" I said in a small voice, for I was very scared.

Jesus said, "Come."

The path we were on was a circuitous one, twisting in and out between these pits of fire as far as I could see. The cries of the living dead, mixed with moans and hideous screams, came to my ears from all directions. There were no quiet times in hell. The smell of dead and decaying flesh hung thickly in the air.

We came to the next pit. Inside this pit, which was the same size as the other one, was another skeleton form. A man's voice cried from the pit, saying, "Lord, have mercy on me!" Only when they spoke could I tell whether the soul was a man or woman.

Great wailing sobs came from this man. "I'm so sorry, Jesus. Forgive me. Take me out of here. I have been in this place of torment for years. I beg You, let me out!" Great sobs shook his skeletal frame as he begged, "Please, Jesus, let me out!" I looked at Jesus and saw that He too was crying.

"Lord Jesus," the man cried out from the burning pit, "haven't I suffered enough for my sins? It has been forty years since my death."

Jesus said, "It is written, The just shall live by faith!' All mockers and unbelievers shall have their part in the lake of fire. You would not believe the truth. Many times My people were sent to you to show you the way, but you would not listen to them. You laughed at them and refused the gospel. Even though I died on a cross for you, you mocked Me and would not repent of your sins. My Father gave you many opportunities to be saved. If only you had listened!" Jesus wept.

"I know, Lord, I know!" the man cried. "But I repent now."

"It is too late," said Jesus. "Judgment is set."

The man continued, "Lord, some of my people are coming here, for they also will not repent. Please, Lord, let me go tell them that they must repent of their sins while they are still on earth. I do not want them to come here."

Jesus said, "They have preachers, teachers, elders-all ministering the gospel. They will tell them. They also have the advantages of the modern communications systems and many other ways to learn of Me. I sent workers to them that they might believe and be saved. If they will not believe when they hear the gospel, neither will they be persuaded though one rises from the dead."

At this, the man became very angry and began to curse. Evil, blasphemous words came from him. I looked on in horror as the flames rose up and his dead, decaying flesh began to burn and fall off. Inside this dead shell of a man, I saw his soul. It looked like a dirty-gray mist, and it filled the inside of his skeleton.

I turned to Jesus and cried, "Lord, how horrible!"

Jesus said, "Hell is real; the judgment is real. I love them so, My child. This is only the beginning of the frightful things I have to show you. There is much more to come. Tell the world for Me that hell is real, that men and women must repent of their sins. Come, follow Me. We must go on."

In the next pit was a very small-framed woman who looked to be about eighty years old. I can't say how I knew her age, but I did. The skin was removed from her bones by the continual flame, and only the bones remained with a dirty-mist soul inside. I watched as the fire burned her. Soon there were only the bones and the worms crawling inside, which the fire could not burn.

"Lord, how terrible!" I cried. "I don't know if I can go on, for this is awful beyond belief." As far as my eyes could see, souls were burning in pits of fire.

"My child, this is why you are here," Jesus answered. "You must know and tell the truth about hell. Heaven is real! Hell is real! Come, we must go on."

I looked back at the woman. Her cries were so sad. As I watched her, she put her bony hands together, as if in prayer. I couldn't help crying. I was in a spirit form, and I was crying. I knew that people in hell felt all these things, too.

Jesus knew my thoughts. "Yes, child," He said, "they do. When people come here, they have the same feelings and thoughts as when they were on earth. They remember their families and friends and all the times they had a chance to repent but refused to do so. Memory is always with them. If only they had believed the gospel and repented before it was too late."

I looked at the old woman once again, and this time I noticed that she had only one leg, and there seemed to be holes drilled in her hip bones. "What are these, Jesus?" I asked.

He said, "Child, while she was on earth, she had cancer and was in much pain. Surgery was done to save her life. She lay a bitter old woman for many years. Many of My people came to pray for her and to tell her I could heal her. She said, 'God did this to me,' and she would not repent and believe the gospel. She even knew Me once, but in time she came to hate Me. She said she did not need God and did not want Me to heal her. Yet I pleaded with her, still wanting to help her, wanting to heal and to bless her. She turned her back on Me and cursed Me. She said she did not want Me. My spirit pleaded with her. Even after she had turned her back on Me, I still tried to draw her by My spirit, but she would not listen. At last she died and came here."

The old woman cried out to Jesus, "Lord Jesus, please forgive me now. I'm sorry that I didn't repent while I was on earth." With great sobs she cried out to Jesus, "If only I had repented before it was too late! Lord, help me out of here. I will serve You. I will be good. Haven't I suffered enough? Why did I wait until too late? Oh, why did I wait until Your Spirit quit striving with me?"

Jesus said to her, "You had chance after chance to repent and serve Me." Sadness was written all over Jesus' face as we walked away.

As I watched the old woman cry, I asked, "Lord, what is next?"

I could feel fear all around. Sorrow, cries of pain and an atmosphere of death were everywhere. Jesus and I walked in grief and pity to the next pit. Only by His strength could I go on. For a great distance I could still hear the old woman's cries of repentance and pleading for forgiveness. If only there was something I could do to help her, I thought. Sinner, please don't wait until God's Spirit quits striving with you.

In the next pit was a woman on her knees, as if looking for something. Her skeletal form also was full of holes. Her bones were showing through, and her torn dress was on fire. Her head was bald, and there were only holes where her eyes and nose were supposed to be. A small fire was burning around her feet where she was kneeling, and she clawed the sides of the brimstone pit. The fire clung to her hands, and dead flesh kept falling off as she dug.

Tremendous sobs shook her. "O Lord, O Lord," she cried, "I want out." As we watched, she finally got to the top of the pit with her feet. I thought she was going to get out when a large demon with great wings that seemed to be broken at the top and hung down his sides ran to her. His color was brownish black, and he had hair all over his large form. His eyes were set far back into his head, and he was about the size of a large grizzly bear. The demon rushed up to the woman and pushed her very hard backward into the pit and fire. I watched in horror as she fell. I felt so sorry for her. I wanted to take her into my arms and hold her, to ask God to heal her and take her out of there.

Jesus knew my thoughts and said, "My child, judgment has been set. God has spoken. Even when she was a child, I called and called her to repent and to serve Me. When she was sixteen years old, I came to her and said, 'I love you. Give your life to Me, and come follow Me, for I have called you for a special purpose: I called all her life, but she would not listen. She said, 'Someday I will serve You. I have no time for You now. No time, no time, I have my life of fun. No time, no time to serve You, Jesus. Tomorrow I will.' Tomorrow never came, for she waited too long."

The woman cried out to Jesus, "My soul is truly in torment. There is no way out. I know that I wanted the world instead of You, Lord. I wanted riches, fame and fortune, and I got it. I could buy anything I wanted; I was my own boss. I was the prettiest, best-dressed woman of my time. And I had riches, fame and fortune, but I found I could not take them with me in death. O Lord, hell is horrible. I have no rest day or night. I am always in pain and torment. Help me, Lord," she cried.

The woman looked up at Jesus so longingly and said, "My sweet Lord, if only I had listened to you! I will regret that forever. I planned to serve You someday-when I got ready. I thought You would always be there for me. But how wrong I was! I was one of the most sought-after women of my time for my beauty. I knew God was calling me to repent. All my life He drew me with cords of love, and I thought I could use God like I used everyone else. He would always be there. Oh yes, I used God! He would try so hard to get me to serve Him, while all the time I thought I didn't need Him. Oh, how wrong I was! For Satan began to use me, and I began to serve Satan more and more. At the last I loved him more than God. I loved to sin and would not turn to God. Satan used my beauty and my money, and all my thoughts turned to how much power he would give me. Even then, God continued to draw me. But I thought, I have tomorrow or the next day. Then one day while riding in a car, my driver ran into a house, and I was killed. Lord, please let me out." As she spoke her bony hands and arms reached out to Jesus while the flames continued to burn her.

Jesus said, "The judgment is set."

Tears fell down His cheeks as we moved to the next pit. I was crying inside about the horrors of hell. "Dear Lord," I cried, "the torment is too real. When a soul comes here, there is no hope, no life, no love. Hell is too real." No way out, I thought. She must burn forever in these flames.

"Time is running out," Jesus said. "We will come back tomorrow."

Friend, if you are living in sin, please repent. If you have been born again and have turned your back on God, repent and turn back to Him now. Live good and stand for truth. Wake up before it is too late, and you can spend forever with the Lord in heaven.

Jesus spoke again, "Hell has a body (like a human form) lying on her back in the center of the earth. Hell is shaped like a human body- very large and with many chambers of torment. Remember to tell the people of earth that hell is real. Millions of lost souls are here, and more are coming every day. On the Great Judgment Day, death and hell will be cast into the lake of fire; that will be the second death."

Christianity EtcDon't Become Another Judas Iscariot by FreshGreen(op): 9:55am On Apr 04, 2015
DON'T BE ANOTHER JUDAS ISCARIOT!

You can't outsmart Satan, but you can only overcome him through Christ Jesus.

Luke 22:3, “Then Satan entered Judas, surnamed Iscariot, who was numbered among the twelve.”

It is not possible for you, as a person, to outsmart Satan; you can only overcome him through Christ Jesus, but you cannot play game with Satan and outsmart him. That was what Judas Iscariot did, and he regretted it. Judas needed money, and he wanted to have it by all means, and so he thought he could play game with Satan and get the money from him. Judas thought he could get the money from Satan and then run away with the money to Jesus, since Jesus would always be there to forgive and help, and Satan is always there to offer the money; so he thought he could play a smart game on Satan by collecting the money and then run to Jesus.

But the true is that, it doesn't work that way, because we can’t mock God by willingly going against His word, and we can’t make fool of Satan by playing game with Him. Judas decided to sell Jesus and get the money, hoping that they would not be able to arrest Jesus, and he would have gotten the money from them; he believed the priests and Pharisees would be the looser, and he would get the money and still have Jesus Christ. He might have thought, “It’s absolutely impossible for them to arrest Jesus, never possible. Jesus who performed a lot of mighty miracles, who walked away several times they attempted to kill Him? Oh never, they can’t arrest Him. Since our agreement would just be for me to betray Jesus, and it is left to them to arrest Him; if they fail to, that is their problem, but then I would have gotten the money in my account. This is a golden chance for me to make money and get my dreamed properties and materials.”

But things didn't work out as he planned and played it. He lost Jesus, he lost the money, he lost his position in the ministry, he lost God’s purpose for his life and he lost eternal life, everything! Matthew 27:3-5, “Then Judas, His betrayer, seeing that He had been condemned, was remorseful and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, 4 saying, “I have sinned by betraying innocent blood.”And they said, “What is that to us? You see to it!” 5 Then he threw down the pieces of silver in the temple and departed, and went and hanged himself.”

The same trick Satan used to deceive and destroy Judas Iscariot, he is using with so many followers of Jesus today. You need money, you need car, you need house, or you need a job, a position or promotion; you need admission, traveling documents or contracts; you need marital partner or children, whatever you need, Satan knows them. As you are trusting God for everything, then Satan would bring sinful suggestions and ungodly opportunities to you, that, “You can get the money, though in a sinful or satanic way, but after you get the money all you need to do is to run back to Jesus for forgiveness, God is always merciful, He will forgive you and you will retain the money.” Does that not sound beautiful for many people to consider? But it is a trick from the pit of hell.

He will also suggest that you can give the sinful demand to get the job, contracts, admission or documents, “just for you to get what you want and after that you go back to Jesus for forgiveness. Is it not just for a day or once? And you get what you need for life and go back to Jesus? You better be wise. The Bible says wisdom is profitable to direct, be wise!”

Satan may also suggests that you can marry the person, though not genuinely saved, but “after you get married, he or she will be saved, you can help her or him to be saved and then you serve God together” Satan will also tell you that you can give premarital sex so that you don’t loose the person. “No one will know, and after that you ask God to forgive you and get married. You have nothing to loose as long you are wise.”

The secret is that, every suggestion that you should commit sin or compromise your faith to get what you want, and after all ask God to forgive you, such suggestion is originated from Satan to deceive you and ruin you, he is trying to make another Judas Iscariot out of you. It was Satan who deceived Judas to do what he did. Luke 22:3, “Then Satan entered Judas, surnamed Iscariot, who was numbered among the twelve.”

You cannot eat your cake and have it at the same time, you cannot mock God and make it, and you cannot play game with Satan and outsmart him. Judas Iscariot tried it, and he could not retrieve his way back, he lost everything. You must be wise to be warned not to become another Judas Iscariot of this generation, by thinking you can quickly get something in a sinful or satanic way and quickly get back to Jesus; you may never find your way back again, Judas could not make it back even though he cried and was remorse.

This trick of Satan of “Go Against God And Go back To Him After you Get What You Want” is an old trick and so deceptive; he even attempted to use it against Jesus Christ. In the wilderness, he came to tempt Jesus Christ, that Jesus should fall down, and God would be there to go Him. Luke 4:9-12.

The suggestion of Satan that you can quickly fall and God is there to raise you up is an act of tempting God, and you must not turn to such so that you will not be turned to pieces.

After you are saved, never attempt to succumb to satanic suggestion to play game with your soul; never think of going quickly into sin to get back to God; that will be a dangerous trip. “For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries.” Hebrews 10:26, 27.

Wait upon the Lord for what you need, and be content with what you have. Never yield to the trick of Satan to take a short trip to sin to trap you. Do not be another Judas Iscariot, and do not become another Esau.

“Lest there be any fornicator or profane person like Esau, who for one morsel of food sold his birthright. For you know that afterward, when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought it diligently with tears.” Hebrews 12:16, 17.

Christianity EtcFulfilling All Righteousness by FreshGreen(op): 1:06pm On Apr 02, 2015
FULFILLING ALL RIGHTEOUSNESS
Matthew 3:15, "But Jesus answered and said to him, “Permit it to be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he allowed Him."

To fulfill all righteousness is not just to do something for the sake of doing it for nothing sake. To fulfill all righteousness is to follow the scriptures accordingly, even when it seems not necessary or when it looks difficult. Fulfilling all righteousness is following scriptures to the last letter as written in the Bible for the fulfillment of the righteous promises of the scriptures to come to pass.

We must follow the scripture to the end before we can see the end-result of the scripture. It's when we fulfill ALL scriptural righteousness that the scriptural promises will come to pass in our lives and ministries. When we obey or fulfill half righteousness of the scriptures, when we interpret the scripture to suite our personal conveniences, or when we obey some parts of the scriptures and see the other parts as unnecessary, we cannot have the fullness and fulfillment of the righteous promises of God.

Jesus Christ went to John the Baptist for water baptism, but John saw it as quite unnecessary for Jesus Christ to be baptized by him, in fact he said he ought to come to Jesus for baptism. But then Jesus Christ told him it was necessary to fulfill all righteousness. And after Jesus was baptized by John, as He came up from the water, behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him. And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." Matthew 3:16, 17.

Three things happened after Jesus fulfilled all righteousness:

(1) HEAVENS OPENED. Heavens, not just a single heaven, all heavens were opened on Jesus. Until we fulfill all righteousness of the scriptures, we can not experience the opened heavens of God's blessings in our lives and ministries. What we are experiencing now is minor compared to when "heavens" opens. The fullness of all blessings of heavens hinges on our fulfilling all righteousness. When we desire opened heaven of God's outpouring Spirit, anointing, blessings and miracles in our lives, families, and ministries, we must first fulfill all righteousness. Half-done obedience or half-way obedience cannot reach heaven to open.

(2) SPIRIT FALLING. God has promised the outpouring of His Spirit upon us, but before this scripture can be fulfilled, we must first fulfill all righteousness of the scriptures - by following the will of God, obeying the Word of God and doing things in the way of God. Failure to fulfill all will falter the existing blessings and frustrate the expecting promises of the scriptures. The fulfillment of God's promises is not just by asking, praying or fasting; it is by fulfilling all righteousness of God.

(3) GOD'S APPROVAL: To experience the blessing of God in our lives is not as important as experiencing the Spirit of God present and working in our lives and ministries; and to experience the move and miracles of Holy Spirit in our lives and ministries is not as important as receiving God's approval at the end of our lives on earth. It's possible to get God's blessings of opened heavens, it is possible to see the move and miracle of God's Spirit, and at the end gains no entrance into heaven.

Jesus Christ said, "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?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’" Matthew 7:22,23. These Christians and ministers who were disapproved by Jesus Christ experienced opened heaven of blessings in their lifetimes, they also experienced the great move and miracles of God's Spirit to the point of doing "many wonders", but they failed to fulfill all the righteousness of God in their lives and ministries, they failed to follow the scriptures to the letter, they gave their personal interpretations to the scriptures for their own conveniences. At the end, they failed to receive God's approval, and so they were doomed forever to hell despite all the blessings and anointing they had.

Jesus Christ received God's approval, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased" because He fulfilled all righteousness. What if Jesus did not go to John the Baptist for water baptism? What if Jesus went to John just to visit without fulfilling all righteousness for water baptism? What if Jesus had heeded the suggestion of John the Baptism not to be baptized? He would not have seen heaven opened, then, He would not have received the Spirit falling, and He would not have received God's approval.

PERSONAL LIFE
Christianity has become so clumsy with different ideologies and doctrines that fulfilling all scriptural righteousness is not unnecessary, or it’s so tedious. In our personal Christian living, and in our different denominations, we tend to do half righteousness and fill the rest with human ideology or interpretation of the elders. We indulge in several worldliness and unfaithfulness, falling short to fulfill all righteousness. We involve in "it doesn't matter" sins, selfishness and permissiveness, and we still claim to be righteous. Little lies do not matter, little worldliness do not matter, worldly music, movies, magazines, TV reality shows, and makeup do not really matter to us any longer; exposing and expensive dress never bother us again, bribing for contracts and falsifying age for job do not matter as long as you pay your tithes faithfully.

Anger, envy, jealousy and gossip do not spoil our faith again as long we still greet one another. All these make us fall short to fulfill all righteousness, and they will make us fail to get God's approval if we do not repent. When we fail to fulfill all righteousness, then we fall short to receive God's righteous promises of eternal blessings. We need to go back to old time faith of righteousness before we can ever experience old time revival.

FAMILY
In our marriages and families, starting from courtships, do we fulfill all righteousness to keep the bed undefiled? We must fulfill all righteousness of the scriptures in our homes before we can experience God's presence. Wives must submit to their husbands irrespective of their statures, husbands must love their wives irrespective of their states, and children must obey their parents in the Lord.

The Bible says what God has joined together, let no man separate; but today, we care for money than we care for our marriage. The incessant separation because of job and business without first praying to seek God’s leading has ruined many Christian homes. Simply because of love of money and care for better financial life, we do not bother to maintain the unity of marriage; many children are wayward, many husbands have given in to strange women, and many wives are living in grave loneliness because of technical separation, because of the love of money we are running divided house. Temporal separation because of job transfer or business pursuit is not a sin, but it is not good and it will not go well with every family; that is the reason family needs to first seek God’s face for leading before moving. But the love of money and care of this world will not allow contentment and unity with little.

Oneness is Bible command in every Christian home, that is, husband and wife doing and planning EVERYTHING together, but in a case where husband has secret bank account, secret project or things he cannot disclose to his wife, and the wife has something in secret, how do you want to unite together in prayer and prevail over the enemy? How do you want to experience God’s presence in your marriage, or how will enemies not keep tormenting such Christian home when there are covered sins and past sins unrevealed?

CHURCH
In the church today, we are fulfilling scriptural righteousness to half and filling the rest with our church ordinances to suite ourselves.

Doctrines - Every denomination interpret the scriptures the way that will fit their personal interest. The members see what their senior Pastors and Bishops say as final without searching the scriptures to cross check, yes, that is like an abomination today.

Tithes- We claim the payment of tithes, we collect tithes with scriptural backing but we fail to fulfill the purpose of the tithes as clearly stated in the Bible. When the Bible says, "Bring the tithes and offerings to My storehouse, that there may be food in My house" We bring the tithes, we collect the tithes but we divert it for other purposes. We claim the promises of tithes but we don't use it for the scriptural purpose for the collection of the tithes. The biblical purpose of tithes is for distribution of the tithes for the benefits of the people who pay the tithes as the early church faithfully followed and fulfilled it. Acts 2:45; 4:35. While the scriptural purpose of the tithes is to build people in God's kingdom, we are busy building ultra modern church auditoriums.

The Bible purpose of the tithes and offerings is for Food - spiritual food for the people - for free materials; physical food for the people - for free food provisions, free basic healthcare, free library and schools for the same people who paid the tithes; instead, we are busy building multimillion church edifice. Church’s secondary schools are unavoidable, our church universities are more expensive than Government schools, and yet we pray for revival in our churches. How can there be revival of Holy Spirit when there is no faithfulness? We claim to have holiness church, but how can a church that is not faithful with money be a church of holiness? How can we claim to run a Bible church when we can’t be faith with usage of tithes as clearly stated in Old Testament and clearly followed by the New Testament church?

We give several excuses of using the tittle for administrative purposes and others, that is nothing but extra biblical misuse of fund; it is siphoning money for unbiblical purposes. The early church could also give excuses but they knew they had to fulfill all righteousness just as it is written in the scriptures, so that they would not fall short at the end. No wonder we pray and fast for revival but only to see more reversal. When we want to collect the tithes, we claim the scriptures, but when we want to use it, we say that is how churches in American and Europe use the tithes for administrative purposes. No wonder we are not having Bible church again, but American church; no wonder we are not seeing our signs again, no wonder enemies are insulting and assaulting the church, because we are not faithful, even we money. Until we fulfill all righteousness, until we are faithful to all the scriptural commands to the letter, we will keep recycling. If biblical administrative system is too old for us in our modern world, then we are too fragile to contain the old time revival.

Let’s go back to the old path of fulfilling all scriptural righteousness, no matter how old or odd it seems, so that we can experience the old time revival in our lives, homes, ministries and churches.

Hosea 6:1-3
Come, and let us return to the LORD;
For He has torn, but He will heal us;
He has stricken, but He will bind us up.
2 After two days He will revive us;
On the third day He will raise us up,
That we may live in His sight.
3 Let us know,
Let us pursue the knowledge of the LORD.
His going forth is established as the morning;
He will come to us like the rain,
Like the latter and former rain to the earth.

Christianity EtcWhat The Bible Says Of Hypocrite by FreshGreen(op): 11:57am On Apr 01, 2015
W H A T THE BIBLE SAYS OF HYPOCRITES

"For what is the hope of the hypocrite,
Though he may gain much,
If God takes away his life?
9 Will God hear his cry
When trouble comes upon him?
10 Will he delight himself in the Almighty?
Will he always call on God?" Job 27:8-10

"FOR WHAT IS THE HOPE OF THE HYPOCRITE?"
There is no single hope for a hypocrite, no matter how far he or she goes.

A hypocrite is a person who claims, confesses to be a Christian but continues in sinful life; you may be coming to church every day, you may become leader or popular minister, but as long you continue in sin and worldly lifestyle, you are counterfeit Christian - hypocrite.

"THOUGH HE MAY GAIN MUCH"
Being a hypocrite does not means you can not gain much money, wealth, you can get to the top or gain materials of this world; being a hypocritical pastor does not means you cannot get many members under your ministry, but everything will perish with you when this world ends.

The foolish care more about getting and gaining in this world, but the wise focus majorly on getting to heaven and gaining eternity; the foolish church preach and pray more about getting prosperity and possessions, but the wise virgin church make eternal gain their priority.

GETTING MUCH FOR NOTHING!
Matthew 16:26, "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?"

You can gain the whole business profit of this world, you can get the greatest job or contract, you can get much possessions in this world, you can gain access to the highest in this world, but what profit if you lose your dear soul in eternal damnation? How can you compare 100 years on earth with unending years of eternity where 1 million year is just the beginning?

Will you be among the popular majority who are giving what they need most for what they need for moment? In a moment, this world will pass away, in a moment rapture will take place, or death comes; and what will be your lot thereafter?

AFTER THEN?
".....If God takes away his life? Will God hear his cry When trouble comes upon him?" Job 27:9,10

There is no amount of prayer of repentance one can pray after death or rapture that God will hear. If you care for your dear soul, this is the time to seek God and find Him, this is the best time to repent and pray God to forgive you and cleanse you, next minute may be too late.

God will not hear prayer after death, it will be too late because "it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment"

Many in the trouble of hell are crying every day for mercy, but it is forever too late. Beloved, do not wait until it is too late before you repent and forsake your sin, do not wait until it is too late before you are ready for restitution. do not wait until it is too late before you are ready for holiness and righteousness; now is the time, the best and only time for you to secure your soul in eternal life with Jesus Christ.

DO YOU CARE?

Christianity EtcDo Not Worry! by FreshGreen(op): 10:35am On Mar 31, 2015
DO NOT WORRY!
Matthew 6:31, “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’

This is a straight command from Jesus Christ to all His children, "Do not worry" Worry does not solve problem, it does not settle situation, but it weakens people and worsens things. To be worried is to be disturbed and anxious about thing, situation or people.

DANGERS OF WORRY!
(1) It kills faith. When you allow worry, you are burring your faith alive.
(2) It distracts Christians from putting their total trust in God.
(3) It brings discouragement. Worry only shows you how impossible and terrible things are, worry can not encourage you or give you right solution, but only to make you discouraged.
(4) It weakens prayer life. Worry weakens prayer life, it shows you that prayer can't solve the matter on ground; it tells you God is not or will not help. The major assignment of worry is to weak prayer life; when you allow worry to linger in your heart, your prayer life will be lost.
(5) It leads to sinful alternative. When worry is almost through with its assignment in a Christian's life, there will begin suggestions of sinful alternatives; since your faith is weak, your prayer life is down, the next thing is to think of sinful alternative. That is how many Christians backslide.

{You cannot wait on God while you are worried! Worry drains and dries strength to wait on God}

(6) It destabilizes health, relationship, and zeal for God's work.

(7) It is from Satan. Do you ever wonder where worry originates from? Well, it is not from Jesus, because Jesus warns us never to worry; worry is a spirit from Satan to steal your hope in Christ, to kill your faith and to destroy your life. Please, do not allow him.

If you are a child of God, worrying is like shooting yourself in the foot, because it only brings harms and no good.

SOLUTIONS FOR WORRY
Worry is not something that you have to invite before it comes, it will always come uninvited, because it is an emotional intruder; it will always come no matter your spiritual level and strength. But there are ways to block worry, that it will never have a chance in your life again.

From Matthew 6:25-34, we can find these solutions:

Rest On God And Resist The Devil
When things are running down, when time is running out, and when people are running here and there, you just rest on God, because God is right there with you. Never entertain devil's suggestion of worry, but resist the devil and he will flee from you.

Matthew 6:31, 32
“Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things."

Pray About Everything
You have a choice: Pray or worry! You can't do both together, because one of the most stupid things a Christian can do is to pray and worry at the same time. Do not worry after you pray. You can worry without prayer, but no need to worry after you pray. Pray and never panic again.

Philippians 4:6
"Do not worry about anything, but pray and ask God for everything you need, always giving thanks." NCV

Best Alternative
Sometimes, worrying may seems unavoidable, but there is a better alternative for worry in every situation, no matter how tough: instead of worrying, rather watch out for the wonders of God coming on your way. Walk by faith through the Word of God, busy yourself in the work of God and wait for the best.

Make Heaven Your Priority
When you make heaven your first priority, whatever happens or does not happen in this life will not lead you to sin against God; when the kingdom of God is your priority, situation of this life will not weigh you down from doing God's work. You have read about saints of old who kept serving and working for God despite difficulties? It was possible for them because they made heaven their primary focus.

CONCLUSION
Whatever the case may be, here is a message for you from your Lord and Savior: Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. - Jesus Christ, from Matthew 6:31-34.

HE CARES, YES HE DOES!

Christianity EtcRepairing The Altar Of God In Your Life by FreshGreen(op): 9:16am On Mar 30, 2015
REPAIRING THE ALTAR OF GOD IN YOUR LIFE
1 Kings 18:30, “Then Elijah said to all the people, “Come near to me.” So all the people came near to him. And he repaired the altar of the LORD that was broken down.”

Before you can experience the manifestation of God in your life, and before there can be fire of revival in your life, ministry and church, there is need to repair the altar of God in your life. The altar of God in our lives is the level of our commitment, consecration and separation unto God – the center of our attention and priorities. We need to totally reconsecrate, recommit ourselves to God in repentance from all sins and to holiness; we need to separate ourselves from ungodliness, worldliness, compromise and care of this world.

To repair the altar, the first thing to do is REPENTANCE. 2 Chronicles 7:14, “if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” The second thing is SEPARATION. We must separate ourselves from sin, worldly attachments and the cares of this world.

1 Samuel 7:3, 4, “Then Samuel spoke to all the house of Israel, saying, “If you return to the LORD with all your hearts, then put away the foreign gods and the Ashtoreths from among you, and prepare your hearts for the LORD, and serve Him only; and He will deliver you from the hand of the Philistines.” The third thing to do is CONSECRATION, to seek the Lord His word and prayer. Acts 6:4, “but we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word.” Then the fire will fall into our lives, our family, and ministries and in the church.

To keep the fire burning, there is need for COMMITMENT. We must commit ourselves into pleasing God, into holiness and righteousness. We must commit ourselves in LOVE for one another. Selfishness, self-centeredness, is cold water that quenches fire of God in lives and ministries. When the love of brethren waxes cold, the fire of revival is put out; disunity quenches the spirit and quickens self.

One of the major reasons there is no revival and fire of God in many lives, many ministries and churches, even after they have consecrated themselves unto God, and separated themselves from sins; the reason is lack of love – selfishness. The fire of God can never fall or burn on the altar void of love. Love keeps the altar dry for fire to burn, without love for one another and sharing with one another, one cannot experience fire of revival no matter how prayerful or pure one is. Songs of Solomon 8:7.

In the Acts of Apostles, the church experienced continuous great revival because of great love among them. Love does not come by just preaching love but by practicing love. Without practical love there can NEVER be the move of God’s power in a family or church, let them pray and fast for 120 days. The early church experienced mighty power of God in their services and fellowship not by long fasting but by love, sharing accomplished with holiness.

Acts 4:33-37
“And with great power the apostles gave witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And great grace was upon them all. 34 Nor was there anyone among them who lacked; for all who were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of the things that were sold, 35 and laid them at the apostles’ feet; and they distributed to each as anyone had need. 36 And Joses, who was also named Barnabas by the apostles (which is translated Son of Encouragement), a Levite of the country of Cyprus, 37 having land, sold it, and brought the money and laid it at the
apostles’ feet.”

Many Christians want the fire of God in their lives, many ministers greatly desire power of God to manifest in their ministrations and every church long for fire of revival, they take more time to pray and pray and fast for it; some go to mountain, long days of fasting, different prayers and program for revival, but why are they not seeing their signs? It is because of selfishness and self-centeredness. If you are really ready for the fire of revival in your life, you will not allow the things of this world to attract you, will not be running after latest cars, phones and other stuffs; you will not be absorbed with earthly projects of buying or building houses that you will not be able to bountifully share with your brethren, family and friends.

The people in the Acts of Apostles sold their houses and land and shared, but you are busy with how to buy and build and you want to experience the same fire of God? It does not work that way.

Churches who claim holiness without love and sharing among themselves will never experience fire of revival in their midst.
1 John 4:7, “ Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.” As a child of God, when you freely share with all, you will definitely experience the fire of revival in your life, family and ministry.

FIRE OF REVIVAL, SHOWERS OF RAIN
When there is revival in the land, in our lives, abundant of rain ensued. Shower of rains of salvation, many people turning to Christ, and lives being transformed for Christ. Shower of rains of healing, deliverance and all blessings in our lives and in our land. 1 Kings 18:41, 45, “Then Elijah said to Ahab, “Go up, eat and drink; for there is the sound of abundance of rain.” “Now it happened in the meantime that the sky became black with clouds and wind, and there was a heavy rain. So Ahab rode away and went to Jezreel.”

CONCLUSION
Repentance from every sin, separation from every worldly attachment, commitment to watchfulness, holiness, truth, righteousness, love and consistent prayer keep the fire of revival burning in us, in our families and in our ministries.

We need the fire of God for us to be fervent for God, and for the works of Satan to be consumed in our midst and through our
ministrations. 1 Kings 18:38, “Then the fire of the LORD fell and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood and the stones and the dust, and it licked up the water that was in the trench.”

PRAYER
Our heavenly Father, we come before you again, we humble ourselves before You. We ask you to forgive us all our sins as we repent, we ask You to cleanse us with the precious Blood of Your Son Jesus Christ. And we ask You to send Your fire of revival upon us to consume every work of Satan in our lives and quicken us in Your work. Revive us again and cause us to rejoice in You forever. We ask in Jesus Christ name. Amen

Christianity EtcUnderstanding Restitution 3 by FreshGreen(op): 12:00pm On Mar 28, 2015
UNDERSTANDING RESTITUTION ( Part III - The concluding part )

This is the concluding part of the Study about Restitution, the first part treated what restitution is all about, why a child of God must do restitution and consequences of unsettled restitution. The second part treated the blessing of Restitution. You can check Part 1 & 2 on our facebook page or our website www.rtemoutreach.org

WRONG NOTIONS ABOUT RESTITUTION
So many Christians and pastors, especially the modern day pastors and lost ministers, do not have the biblical understanding of God’s command about restitution, they see it as unnecessary and they teach just that. They say when you are saved, God forgives your sins and that settles all without restitution. What that mean is that you can keep using what you stole before you were saved, you can keep covering the evil you did before you were saved, but the truth is that Christians who believe such will not want people to do so to them. You will not want your wife to keep hide serious secret from after she is saved, if she excuses, "I did not tell you because God has forgiven me" Will such excuse justify why your wife covered up premarital son until you found out yourself? So it is applicable to people who hide under the self deception that, "I have confessed to God and that settles it"

Such people will not want their husband who left them with children for strange women to continue staying with the strange women after the husbands are saved; they will want the husbands to do restitution by returning and apologizing. Pastors who say restitution is of no use will not want their wives to continue keeping secrets from them even after their wives are saved. Christians who disagree with restitution will not want the thieves who stole their only cars or life’s precious belongings to keep them after the thieves are saved; they will definitely want the thieves to return them, they might even be praying that God should touch their hearts.

If a dubious person ganged against you and used his influence to claim your developing housing property which you have spent all your hard earned money to build, after the dubious person is saved, wouldn’t you expect him to come back to you, at least to apologize?

Restitution is infallible truth of Christianity that cannot be biblically or reasonably denied, it is soul depravity and self deception that make “so called” preachers to ignore or deny restitution after salvation. If you go to such people for counsel, they will counsel you wrongly and cancel your life. Such preachers can tell you to just forget about it since God has forgiven you, they may tell you to fast and forget about it, they may tell you to give special offerings, sow into their ministries and God will pardon you. But the truth is that there is no substitution for restitution expects to restitute. You can contact us at RTEM for godly counsel on restitution or any genuine and godly preachers or people you may know that have biblical understanding about restitution.

God has used this ministry to guide and counsel several people on restitution, many people have done unbelievable restitution in their marriages, schools, workplace, etc. So far in my experience, no single restitution has broken any marriage, but rather strengthen their marriage, because God makes everything work together for good. You will not want to miss the peace of mind and presence of God you will experience after you do the right thing.

If you attend any of these prosperity, modern churches, be sure they will not give you needed encouragement for holiness.

Restitution is biblical command only for the saved children of God, it’s not an option.

HOW TO DO RESTITUTION
Restitution is urgently important but then all restitution, either simple or serious, must be done the following manners:

(i) Prayer - Pray for God’s grace, favor and then take a move. You can also share with godly people to pray along with you.

(i) Godly counsel. You need godly, unbiased counsel for restitution from godly ministers who have biblical understanding about restitution.

(ii) Humility - Know that when you are restituting – maybe returning something, revealing something, restoring something, etc, you are actually doing yourself, your soul, your life a favor not the person you are doing the restitution to. So you must do it with a humble spirit no matter your position or the level of the person, not arrogantly.

(iii) ) Restitution must be done “now” without delay because you may not have “later”. Satan will always suggest that you postpone, delay or even defy the restitution so that he can destroy you forever. As previously said, undone restitution can hinder you from making the Rapture, causing untimely death, hinder you from entering heaven; as well hinder your prayer and blessing.

Restitution is more important than your service to God, than your offerings, your prayers, fasting or your business and work. It determines your better life and eternity. In doing restitution, you may suffer loss, shame, even death but it worth more than that. Don’t allow Satan or anyone to scare you, God is right with you and He will definitely see you through to the end. Look ahead at the joy, blessing and glorious eternal rewards, look at Jesus! Don’t look at the present, temporal pain but at the eternal, permanent gain!

“And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.

“Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven. But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.” Matthew 10:28-33.

Christianity EtcUnderstanding Restitution 2 by FreshGreen(op): 9:37am On Mar 27, 2015
UNDERSTANDING RESTITUTION ( Part 2)
This is the second part of the Study about Restitution, the first part treated what restitution is all about, why a child of God must do restitution and consequences of unsettled restitution. You can check Part 1 on our Facebook page or our website.

THE BLESSINGS OF RESTITUTION
Judges 17:1-2. Now there was a man from the mountains of Ephraim, whose name was Micah. 2 And he said to his mother, “The eleven hundred shekels of silver that were taken from you, and on which you put a curse, even saying it in my ears—here is the silver with me; I took it.” And his mother said, “May you be blessed by the Lord, my son!

There are many blessings that follow after restitution is done, here are few of them:

Peace with Men
In our past old life, we wronged God and men, when we are saved, we make peace with God and so we must complete the process of peace by making peace with people. People we fought, we offended, or harmed before we were saved must be contacted and apologized to. People we had rancor, malice and animosity with must be settled with, even if we think they wronged us, even if we have decided not to greet them again, yet we must make peace with them for the sake of peace and to remove the bitterness, malice and others so that we don’t give room to the devil in our new lives in Christ. “If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men” Romans 12:18

People you are living with, working with, schooling with; family members, friends and neighbors, every one we had issues with, as much as we can, we should settle peacefully with them.
When we make peace with all men, both right and wrong, it confirms our peace with God, it gives us peace and it’s the only way to see God, to enter heaven. “Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord” Hebrews 12:14. When we settle with people peacefully, it shows we are truly children of God, the King of Peace; Jesus the Prince of Peace and we, the children of peace. “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.” Matthew 5:9.

It Settles Old Accounts
Restitution is to settle our old accounts and close them. If you are saved and you have not made some past wrongs right by restitution, it simply means you keep your old account open which may stand against you here on earth and eventually disallow you to enter heaven. Undone restitution has the capacity to block God’s blessing in your life here on earth and block you from entering Heaven. The old records which stand against you can only be settled and closed by restitution. “Some men’s sins are clearly evident, preceding them to judgment, but those of some men follow later.” 1 Timothy 5:24.

It confirms your new life in Jesus Christ
In different online and phone transaction, after you have sent your desired transaction, you will be asked to confirm your transaction. If you fail to “just” confirm, thinking since you have filled all the forms, supplied all the needed information and it has been sent and accepted, you think to confirm again is of no use, your transaction will be invalid and will not be processed. The same is in reality with restitution. After you have repented and confessed your sin to God and He has forgiven, cleansed and accepted you, you need to respond back to confirm your salvation by restitution. Think about it, if I were your neighbor and I stole your stuffs in past and using them. You knew and just kept quiet, then later I got saved and come to preach to you and still using what I stole from you, how will you feel? Restitution is a reality for every regenerated child of God.

It turns curses to blessings
Many curses in life are caused by wrong things that was done in past, and many problems facing children of God after they have been saved are not because the enemies are powerful over their lives in Christ but because they allow the old curses to have access to their new lives because of ignoring necessary restitution they need to do. Undone restitution allows the unsettled wrong of your past to haunt your present life even though you are now a child of God. You give access to Satan, enemies, generational curses and many attacks when you refuse to do needed restitution. This can also block the free flow of God’s blessing, progress and God’s promises for your life.

Undone restitution gives Satan to accuse you and oppose you in the present of God. Most of the problems making us to do fasting, special prayers, deliverance and attend several programs and the problems remain the same; those problems can be solved if we do simple acts of apologizing, forgiving or any necessary restitution as the case may be, and that end the mountainous problems, and that begins the progress and prosperity in your life, marriage and ministry. “And he said to his mother, “The eleven hundred shekels of silver that were taken from you, and on which you put a curse, even saying it in my ears—here is the silver with me; I took it.” And his mother said, “May you be blessed by the Lord, my son!” Judges 17:2. Obedience is better than sacrifice.

It Gives Blessed Assurance
When restitution is settled, you have peace, you have more confidence in the Lord and you have assurance of heaven. Satan will not have anything to hold against you and you will have that strong boldness in your prayer. Here is what the Word of God says, “And by this we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before Him. For if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things. Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward God. And whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His sight.” 1 John 3:19-22.

Christianity EtcUnderstanding Restitution 1 by FreshGreen(op): 11:36am On Mar 26, 2015
UNDERSTANDING RESTITUTION ( Part I )
Leviticus 6:4, “then it shall be, because he has sinned and is guilty, that he shall restore what he has stolen, or the thing which he has extorted, or what was delivered to him for safekeeping, or the lost thing which he found”

One of the most important issues in Christian doctrines is restitution, it's what determines our eternity, what determines our relationship with Jesus after we are saved. Restitution is so important after Salvation that it has to be done immediately a person is genuinely saved. Salvation without restitution is half freedom and unconfirmed salvation.

The center of restitution is confession to men as the Bible commands us to confess to one another, but in a larger and clearer sense, restitution is restoring things wrongly acquired in old life of sin, returning what was wrongly taken or borrowed in the past; revealing lies, faked, falsified, fraudulent information and documents of past; reconciling with people we offended by apologizing and people who offended us by FORGIVING them; lastly it is also repaying debts we owed in the past which we refused to pay or forgot to pay. By reality, every child of God has at least one or two matter of restitution.

When you are truly saved and the Lord has forgiven and cleansed you from all your sins; the Spirit of God enters into your life, and immediately He begins to point to you what you need to amend and restitute. The First and Greatest Teacher of restitution after salvation is the HOLY SPIRIT, speaking to our mind, our conscience what to restore, reveal, and return and who to reconcile with. It’s spiritually natural after genuine salvation. If you are truly saved and nothing is ministered to your spirit to correct or confess to people, it means there is need for second touch to see clearly or you are blocking the speaking of the Spirit into your heart.

Everybody of us was born a sinner, grew in sin to a particular level before we become born again. Since nobody is sinless before salvation, every body has one or two restitution to do. Sin is offending God and man, when we come to Jesus, confess our sins to Him and ask Him to forgive us, He does just that. After God has forgiven and cleansed, then we reconcile with fellow men.

The most and first important thing is to settle and reconcile with God, every sinner is fighting with God, but when we come to God through Jesus, when we repent from all our sins, confess them and accept Jesus into our lives, we reconcile with God and that made us to be children of God Almighty instead of His enemies. Paul said, “Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.” Acts 23:1.

When we repent from our sins and confess them, we have good conscience before God, and that is the beginning of everything in our Christian lives. The salvation of our souls is the basic and foundation of Christian living, Christians without genuine salvation are religious Christians, not reckoned with God, and they are the majority in Christianity.

After our genuine salvation that gives good conscience before God, we move on to having same good conscience with men as a confirmation and evidence people will see. Apostle Paul furthered in Acts 24:16, “This being so, I myself always strive to have a conscience without offense toward God and men.” If truly we have a conscience without offense towards God, it will be also go towards men likewise. If God knows, men also will know. It is just like somebody saying “I love God” but he hates fellow men; how can he loves God he doesn’t see and at the same time hates fellow men he sees? Bible says such love is fake. The same is applicable with confession, when you confess to God you find it hard to confess to fellow men you that you can see, how genuine is that confession?

If you are afraid of what people will say or do if you confess, it means you fear men than God. You were not afraid to confess to Almighty God, Awesome God, All knowing God, who can kill and make alive; if you are not afraid to confess to that God fearful in praises, then why are you afraid to confess to fellow men? Here is what Jesus Christ says, “And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.” Matthew 10:28. The worst men can do to you after restitution is to kill your “temporal” body but only God has the power to destroy that body and soul, only Him you should fear. Fear brings snares; fear ensnares people, even after they are saved, not to claim their total freedom in Christ through restitution. Why will you be afraid to confess the sin to creatures after you have confessed and settled with the CREATOR?

THE SNARES OF UNDONE RESTITUTION
Proverbs 29:25, “The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD shall be safe.”

Refusing to do restitution is as a result of fear; fear of people and profit, you know or see so that you will not loose their favor, and you may also be afraid of loosing life’s profits – your position, possession, properties, popularity, prestige or papers. Yielding to such fear will hold you in perpetual snares of Satan after salvation. Here are some of the snares:

Snares of Persistent Sin
When restitution is not done immediately you are saved, you will keep telling lies to cover the past sins. For example, a wife who runs a secret bank account without the knowledge of the husband, and now she is saved, she needs to open up to her husband and reveals; but if she doesn’t, she will need to keep telling lies to cover up. If you are using a false certificate or travel documents, after you are saved, you need to open up, if not, you need more lies to keep those papers. And that is how it is applicable in every area of life if you don’t open up, you will need to keep telling lies, you will need to commit new and another sin for you to cover the past and old sins; so where is your freedom in Jesus?

Snares of Profits of Sin
The benefits of sin are bondage in disguise, and you might have gotten one or two before you were saved, and so after you are saved, the only means you can be free from those snares of the benefits of past sins is by restitution. You return or reveal those benefits. The papers you got by sinful means, the possessions you got in sinful manners and the properties, positions and prestige you gained by sinful way or in sinful life must by relinquished. If you, by mistake, keep those things it means you are still keeping yourself in the snares of Satan, because they belong to Satan, things got by sinful means belong to Satan.

Snares of Poisoned Minds
Before you were saved, you offended people and people offended you. Those you offended are holding it against you with their minds poisoned in the process; you are holding unforgiving poisoned mind against those who offended you, because what they did were terrible, right. After you are saved, you reconcile with people; you forgive from your heart those who offended you, and as much as possible you notify them. Likewise you strive as much as possible to apologize to those you wronged in the past. By so doing, you release yourself from the snares of offense and unforgiveness.

Snares of Unsettled Mind
Undone restitution brings uncertain and unsettled mind. As a child of God, if you are delaying a restitution, you will persistently have uncertainty about your eternity and unsettled mind even AFTER you have confessed all to God. That shows restitution is important to God, even after confessing to God, your mind will still be unrest until you confess to some people. You don’t need to deceive yourself and harden your heart in the present of persistent unsettled mind.

Snares of Satan’s Access and Accusation
After salvation, if necessary restitution is not done, Satan will be using that means to have access into your life and to accuse you before God. That will bring attacks from the enemies, spiritual stagnation and unanswered prayers. And it can also bring premature death. That is one of the reasons you see many Christians being tormented by satanic attacks, old curses and enemies, because their undone restitution give access to enemies into their lives and marriages.

Snares of Missing Heaven
If a child of God denies or delays restitution for any reason, and he or she dies in such situation, hell is their eternal abode, painful but period! Many children of God, ministers of God will miss rapture, not because they were not genuinely saved, not because they were not living righteous lives after salvation but because of undone, unsettled restitution as a result of fear of loosing people or earthly profits.

Christianity EtcHow God Showed Me The Vision Of Rapture And Hell 2 by FreshGreen(op): 3:31pm On Mar 25, 2015
HOW GOD SHOWED ME THE VISION OF RAPTURE & HELL (Part II)

When I looked at the people who were going up with the Lord, they were very calm, at peace and full of joy.

When I looked down at the people in destruction, I was surprised because some of them are supposed to be the people of God that I know (they are still alive). They were crying out in agony and pain. Yet the Lord said there was nothing He could do except they repent. At this point I had questions in my mind. Then the Lord told me to ask questions.

Q. Where is the destination of these people who are going up with You?
A. They are coming to be with Me where I prepared for them.
Q. For those going down in destruction, where is their destination?
A. They are going down to hell except they repent.
Q. Why are these people in destruction?

1. Hypocrisy – what they are in their mouth is not what they are in their heart.

Matt 15:7-9: “Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying: “These people draw near to Me with their mouth, and honor Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me. And in vain they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’”

2. Submitting to the spirit of paranoid that does not allow them to see sin as God sees it, thus making light what is serious in His sight. This spirit works directly against the Spirit of Truth.
John 16:13-14:
“However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you”.
Consequently, they are not pure in heart, for only the pure in heart will see God (Matt 5:cool
“Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord.” Heb. 12:14.

MY GOING DOWN INTO HELL
When the Lord told me that the people in destruction are going to hell except they repent, then I asked the Lord “Can I see the place?” He said “Yes, you can see hell because you asked in a right way”.

The Lord said “Come with me” and the next thing I saw is that we were walking together in hell. When we got to hell, the Lord said to me, “This is the place you wanted to see, don’t be afraid because of who I will allow you to see, and what I will show you.” The place was very terrible. It was dark and I could hear screams of billions upon billions of people, men and women. Though the place was dark, I could still see because the light of God was shining. His face was shining like the sun in its strength. I saw the flames of fire looking reddish and multitudes of people as though they were swimming in the fire. The people I was allowed to speak to were in their individual pits of fire. These pits of fire are literally billions upon billions! They would try to come out of the pit, but it was as if the fire would melt them. I saw billions upon billions of demons running around. These demons were more or less making mockery of those there.

The Lord said “I will allow you to talk with three men who were top preachers from your country but are now in hell.”These are people I never met or knew on earth. Each of these men introduced himself to me and acknowledged that he deserved to be there in hell.

The first person I talked with was Archbishop Benson Idahosa (Church of God Mission International).

When I saw his state of suffering in hell, then I asked him some questions.

Q. Why are you here?
A. Covetousness and I was full of self-righteousness while I was on earth. And I deserve to be here.
Q. Are you used to the pains and the suffering?
A. No. The suffering is new every day.
Q. For how long have you been here?
A. Thirteen (13) years
Q. What if I want to come here where you are?
A. If you want to, you are welcome.

While I was talking with him his flesh would melt as if acid was poured on his face. All the time he was talking with me, he was in torment in his own pit of fire.

The next person I talked with was Baba Paul Gindiri (New Life for All). While he was looking at me, he was screaming in his own pit of fire. As he would try to talk, fire would come from his mouth melting his throat. Then the throat came back again and he was able to talk with me. As he was talking there was fire burning even inside his head and he was in real torment.

Q. Why are you here?
A. My works brought me here
Q. What works?
A. Guile (deceit, hypocrisy, falsehood)
Q. But I was touched by some of your messages I have listened to, yet you are here. Is your message that we are listening to also going to bring us here?
A. No
Q. Why?
A. If you allow the Spirit of the Lord to lead you and not your human mind, your life will glorify God through the messages.

The next person I spoke with was Pastor Philip Mokungah (Oasis Church, Plateau state). He was talking with me with his head upside down. The Lord says that was the state of his punishment at that hour.

Q. Who are you and why are you here?
A. I was Pastor Philip Mokungah. Now I know I am nothing and my self-will brought me here. And I’ve already sowed the seed of self-will and selfish desire in my family. The more it grows the more my punishment in hell increases. I was walking right with God then I gave room to the devil and he cut me off. He succeeded through my desire and at the end I divorced my wife. This was the first step that separated me from God. And I took it very lightly. Now I am here as a result of my self-will.

He also gave me a message for his family.
While I was talking with him, I also saw a woman who was a very popular female preacher from Nigeria – She introduced herself saying, “See me, see me, see me, Bimbo Odukoya,” but I was not allowed to talk to her but she was allowed to talk to me. She said what brought her there was secret sin, though she did not state what the secret sin was. The Lord made it clear that it was iniquity that took her there.

Ten other people spoke to me but I was not allowed by the Lord to speak to them. Eight of them are of other nationalities (Non-Nigerians).

There was a man I met in Indonesia where I went preaching in 2009. He said he was in hell because of wrong counseling. He was a counselor who was giving people wrong counsel.
One of them said he is there because of the spirit of irresponsibility.

Another said he came there because of gossip.
Another said he is there because of the spirit of bitterness.
A lady said she came there because of lying in the name of God.
There was a young man who said he was arrested while on earth for preaching the gospel and the devil cut him off in prison where he compromised his faith.

There was a woman who was just wailing but I could not pick out her words. There was an elderly man who said he wished he was me because looking at me I was not feeling what he was feeling.

I saw a young girl with a very long hair with different colors. She was a cultic girl who was in the choir of her church. The last person was a young man. He said he called himself into the ministry because he desired to help God. The hand of the Lord was not on him and therefore no grace. He went to so-called men of God seeking anointing of the Holy Spirit. As they prayed, they transferred the same evil spirits in them into him. He gave a message – “Be careful of those you allow to lay hands on you.”

The three men the Lord allowed me to speak with were very popular preachers. God, however, is not a respecter of persons for He is a just judge.

Acts 10:34-35:
“Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: But in every nation he that feareth Him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with Him. Rom 2:11
“For there is no respect of persons with God.

Rom. 11:22:
“Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.”

Coming out of Hell
After the Lord brought me out of hell, I was back in the light were I was before. Then I said, “Lord, can I ask a question?” He answered, “Why not”. “Lord, why did you allow me to have this experience. I’m afraid seeing these men in hell?” Then the Lord said to me, “I allowed you to see these men in hell because of the message you are carrying for this generation.” I now asked the Lord, “Can I carry this message of seeing these people who labored in Your vineyard, and yet ended up in hell?” The Lord said to me, “That is their choice. They knew the truth but they refused to confront themselves with the truth but others. You can carry the message because of the anointing that is upon your life”. “But Lord, You anointed these men as well and yet they have ended up in hell!” “It is because of their choice. If you also choose the wrong road like them, you will end up where they are. But my desire is that you continue on the right road”. This warning, of course, applies to all those going up with the Lord in glory! “What about those people who listen to their messages, would they be saved or lost like them?” “If they believe in Me, it is not their message, it is My message”.

Then the Lord raised His two hands and was leaving. Then I asked Him, “Lord, when are you coming to take us?” He said, “I Myself do not know, only the Father”; as He said this, He was looking up towards heaven. After this He went up. There were many angels with Him in the clouds and they went back with Him.

The end of the vision
After they left, as I looked, I was shocked to find myself still in the place of prayer where I first knelt before the Lord the previous day, 2nd of September 2011. I realized I had been with the Lord for about twenty-four hours yet there was no weariness or weakness in my body. Then an anointing came upon me and the names of some of the people I had seen in the vision began coming to me especially the lost ministers(who are still alive but have gone astray), for prayer. I was given specific prayer points for each of them. The general prayer for all the lost ministers is for God to open their spiritual eyes to see the need to confront themselves with the gospel of Truth.

Why this vision?
God is a merciful God who does not want us to perish.
1) This vision is for you personally, you need to view your own life, forget about the ministers mentioned there. You personally need to settle your relationship with God. You personally need to settle your account with God before it is too late. Are you genuinely saved? Are you living a holy and godly life or you are following the modern prosperity Christianity?

2) You need to repent now; you need to experience genuine salvation now before it is too late. It is not about saying, "God have mercy on me, Lord I need you to help me" but you also need to take step for your new life, you need to surrender your self and sins to Jesus by yourself, God will not do that for you.

3) Are you a child of God? Examine yourself. We all need to examine ourselves with the word of God. What is those aspects, habits in our lives that we have been overlooking, excusing or we think they don’t matter? Those things can hinder us from entering heaven if we don’t repent now. What is the restitution to make or who to forgive? Please, let’s all settle everything now. Let’s search our lives with God’s word and surrender all as we pray.

4) Flee from false teachings of worldly indulgences and prosperity focus. Those preachers who emphasize on prosperity more than purity, who tell you about earthly blessings more than the second coming of Jesus are lost ministers, irrespective of their popularity and prophecies. Read Matthew 7:21, 23.

Repent, confess your sins and forsake them, accept Jesus as your Lord and start a new life in Him. Look unto Jesus not any Pastor or Bishop.

NOTE: Remember your confession of sin is useless without repentance, readiness to forsake them.

Are you ready to rededicate your life to Jesus now or start a new life? Then repent! Confess all your sins, forsake them all and ask Jesus to forgive, cleanse you and save you.

Christianity EtcHow God Showed Me The Vision Of Rapture And Hell 1 by FreshGreen(op): 10:09am On Mar 23, 2015
HOW GOD SHOWED ME THE VISION OF RAPTURE & HELL (Part I) - You have to read this!

After a forty-day fast that I was requested to go through by the Lord, in the place of prayer, I suddenly saw light around me and then heard the audible voice of the Lord saying, “Men have seen the sky, the sun, moon and stars, the mountains and the hills and yet they fear Me not; I will not hold My peace anymore, I am coming to judge the earth.”

The Lord showed me an open vision of the rapture before He took me down to hell. The first person I saw in the vision was the Lord Jesus Christ Himself. I have seen Him on several occasions before now so I know Him.
The Lord ALLOWED me to see the PRESENT CONDITION (not FUTURE DESTINATION!) of everyone He has privileged me to meet in my two and half year’s journey with Him. As well as many others that I have never met including those the Lord said I will meet in future.
1. I saw those who were going up in glory with the Lord.
2. I saw those were going down in destruction.

Those in Category 2 were far more in number compared to those in Category 1.
There were those who were not seen in Category 1 or 2. The Lord says these ones are hiding in darkness for there is nothing hidden in the Light.

Most of the ministers who were going up in glory, the Lord says, are not the popular ministers known by men on earth but are known by Him. However, I saw some ministers of the gospel that I know.

Most of the major ministers in Nigeria were seen going down in destruction. The Lord says this is the season of judgment. He says He cannot bear any longer what they are doing in His name for He is coming to judge the earth, yet it is not too late if they repent; but He says, “If you refuse to be sincere with yourself and repent, you know where you are going – your destiny is eternal destruction.”Just some of the major ministers among the so many ministers in destruction are going to be mentioned here for the purpose of their redemption. The Lord says it is not His will for you to be where you are right now and you know it.

These include Pastor Enoch Adeboye (Redeemed Christian Church of God), Bishop David Oyedepo (Living Faith Church), Pastor Tunde Bakare (Latter Rain Assembly), Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor (President, Christian Association of Nigeria), Dr. Olukoya (Mountain of Fire and Miracles), Matthew Ashimolowo (Kingsway Church, United Kingdom), Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy), Pastor T.B. Joshua (Synagogue of All Nations), Chris Okotie (Household of God), Evangelist Uma Ukpai and many others!

I have never met or known any of these ministers. However, some of these ministers were brought to me in the place of prayer for intercession during the forty-day fast preceding this vision. The Lord introduced them to me as lost ministers.

Christian national leaders from other countries include –Joel Osteen, Kenneth Copeland, Bishop T.D. Jakes, Billy Graham, Joyce Meyer, Rod Parsley, Myles Munroe, Mike Murdock, Paula White, Ron Kenoly, Pastor Donnie McClurkin, Pat Robertson, Reinhard Bonkke, Pope Benedict, David Yongi Cho, Duncan Williams and many others!

The essence of mentioning these names is for these people to be warned by those who know them and love them so there can be a change in their ways before it is too late! My responsibility is to simply report what I saw and to warn, so I am free of their blood. There are many other lost ministers whose names cannot be listed here, but let everyone examine himself before the searchlight of the Holy Spirit. Each of us must confront ourselves with the gospel of truth before it is too late forever!

The truth is like a double-edged sword which if received reverently could comfort us and if rejected could crush us (Heb. 4:12-13).
This vision is a demonstration of grace and love from the FATHER-HEART OF GOD.

Q. Where is the destination of these people who are going up with You?
A. They are coming to be with Me where I prepared for them.
Q. For those going down in destruction, where is their destination?
A. They are going down to hell except they repent.
Q. Why are these people in destruction?

……to be continued in Part II

Why this vision?
God is a merciful God who does not want us to perish. The purposes of this vision:
1) You personally need to settle your relationship with God. Forget about the ministers mentioned in the vision, you personally need to settle your account with God before it is too late. Are you genuinely saved? Are you living a holy and godly life or you are following the modern prosperity Christianity?

2) You need to repent now; you need to experience genuine salvation now before it is too late. It is not about saying, "God have mercy on me, Lord I need you to help me" but you also need to take step for your new life, you need to surrender your self and sins to Jesus by yourself, God will not do that for you.

3) Are you a child of God? Examine yourself. We all need to examine ourselves with the word of God. What is those aspects, habits in our lives that we have been overlooking, excusing or we think they don’t matter? Those things can hinder us from entering heaven if we don’t repent now. What is the restitution to make or who to forgive? Please, let’s all settle everything now. Let’s search our lives with God’s word and surrender all as we pray.

4) Flee from false teachings of worldly indulgences and prosperity focus. Those preachers who emphasize on prosperity more than purity, who tell you about earthly blessings more than the second coming of Jesus are lost ministers, irrespective of their popularity and prophecies. Read Matthew 7:21, 23.

Repent, confess your sins and forsake them, accept Jesus as your Lord and start a new life in Him. Look unto Jesus not any Pastor or Bishop.

NOTE: Remember your confession of sin is useless without repentance, readiness to forsake them.

Acts 17: 30 Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent

2 Timothy 3:1 But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come.

This vision is not from RTEM but from Brother Sadiq Ibrahim (drkelvinstewart@yahoo.com) who God showed the vision. We asked his permission to post the vision. There are many acclaimed visions from God both fake and true, but after we prayerfully searched, we are convinced this is a genuine vision from God for our repentance. At a minister conference, about 5 people from different places shared the same vision as God gave them, to warn every one of us and these minsters to repent, that He is coming SOON. Some of the people God gave this vision said they have already informed most of these ministers, it is now left to them to repent, but then you can choose for your own dear life. The common message is: JESUS can come any moment from now.

Are you ready to rededicate your life to Jesus now or start a new life? Then repent! Confess all your sins, forsake them all and ask Jesus to forgive, cleanse you and save you.

Christianity Etc7 Tears Old Girl Reveals About Adeboye, Oyedepo, Others by FreshGreen(op): 7:34pm On Mar 22, 2015
7-Yr-Old Girl Reveals That Adeboye,TB Joshua, Oyedepo,Oritsejafor & Others Will Not Make Heaven, Say’s They Are Candidates of HELL!

Seven year old Iretioluwa is like every other children, but what makes her different is her spiritual proclamations, which makes her an extra-human being. When we were invited by her parents saying “our daughter wants you”. It was like a call not too clear. But upon inquiry made by a WHAT ELSE website, they claim they discovered that it was not just a call but a diving call that requires a diving response.

According to the website, they claim:

Ireti-Oluwa has become a friend of Jesus Christ upon whom she resides and proclaim messages for the world.

“Most times Jesus Christ appears to her and tells her lots of things especially hidden things which He (Jesus) wants us to know” declares the mother.

“But the most shocking of all she has been told is about men of God whom we reverence in this country and she told us to look for a Christian newspaper. In fact, she wrote the name of your magazine and we started looking for it” – the father cuts in.

We were ushered into the spacious living room of the Ifedayos when Iretioluwa was taking her breakfast. We waited for her to finish and we settled down for the business of the day.

Iretioluwa, a primary three pupil was so bold as she declared what she said was told her by Jesus Christ.

According to her, my Lord and savior said i should declare to Pastor Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God that he cannot make heaven. Though he started very well in spite of his works, he has compromised. “He has missed me a long time ago. I am only honouring my name in his life. He no longer has a place in me. Tell him to go back to his first love and drop every load of compromise he is carrying.

“Tell David Oyedepo that his hands are soiled with human blood. His name is not in the book of life. He has missed it a long time ago. Tell him what will profit him if he gains the whole world and end in Hell fire.

David Olukoya of Mountain of fire and miracles is encouraging evil and doesn’t want to repent. Tell him to stop living a double life. He knows the stones in his hands, tell him to drop them if he MUST enter heaven, he has to live a complete life of holiness.

Ayo Oritsejafor is not my servant. He has gone astray in the pursuit of fame, power, money. Warn him to repent before he ends where his boss his.

T.B. Joshua is an advocate of Satan in Nigeria, he has sold his soul to the devil and he knows hell is awaiting him.

Christ Oyakhilome made a vow to Satan and he has succeeded to win souls for Satan. He is the front runner of the new age teachings in the world.

Many pastors that hoist flags of different churches know why they are doing so. Beware of such gathering.

Evil altar has reached an alarming rate in Nigeria.

HERE IS A NOTE FROM RTEM:

If you are a member of any of the churches these ministers are leading or such churches, then you are in a misled, unbliblical church, you can pray for God's leading either to leave such misled church or ask for God's grace to be different and stand for the truth if at all God wants you to still remain there.

If you take any of these ministers as your role model, you are shooting yourself at the foot. Among them are backsliders, sinners and agents of Satan. If their big names and popularity are blindfolding you from seeing the truth, then you need the light of God's Word to set you free.

If you are a minister in any of these churches, it may be impossible for you to remain a genuine minister of God and speak the whole truth without being a rebel.

At this end time, the best Spiritual guide you can have is the BIBLE, the best Bible Teacher without any error you can have is the HOLY SPIRIT and the best role model that will not mislead you can ever have is the Lord Jesus Christ.

Christianity EtcEvidence Of New Life In Jesus by FreshGreen(op): 9:47am On Mar 20, 2015
THE EVIDENCE OF NEW LIFE IN JESUS
“Finally then, brethren, we urge and exhort in the Lord Jesus that you should abound more and more, just as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God.” 1 Thessalonians 4:1

New life in Jesus Christ is not about going to church or changing your church, It’s not about being serious or being committed in church or being involved in the church as a worker, deacon or minister. New life in Jesus Christ is far from getting involved in fasting and prayer meetings, attending every church programs and special conferences and programs. It’s more than being faithful in tithes and offerings, sowing to pastors’ lives or donating generously to church or ministries. The new life in Jesus goes beyond taking Holy Communion, speaking in tongues, doing miracles or preaching about Jesus. It’s not about singing praises and worship. It’s not about what you claim to be or what your people call you.
New life in Jesus Christ is all about how you walk with Him and how you please Him.

HOW YOU WALK
Genesis 17:1- Walking before God and be perfect. That is the number one evidence of your new life in Jesus, if truly you have it. This walk is not walking to church or taking different styles of physical walk, it’s not how you walk to give offering in the church. The walk here is about our lifestyles and attitudes. Before you come to Jesus, you walk in sinful lifestyle and ungodly attitude. Ephesians 2:2, "in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience" But when you come to Jesus and you genuinely surrender your life to Jesus, you don’t continue to live and behave the ways and manners you were used to. Your lifestyle must change that will be obvious to people. Your attitude, your action and re-action, your manner of responding to people and situation, your way of talking, your way of dressing, your priority, your focus, your motivating factors in life, and your mindset.

Your salvation in Christ Jesus must also affect your relationship with people, those relationships you need to end and those you must continue and how you must relate with people. Genuine salvation in Jesus Christ will affect your business and work, as a genuine child of God, what business or work you must do and how you must do them. When you have a reserved area in your life which is no-go-area to Jesus Christ, maybe how you do your business or work, how you dress, or one aspect of your character, then it means you have not totally surrendered all to Jesus, and that implies that you are not yet saved, people here may say you are saved but to Heaven, you are "almost saved". Jesus didn’t come to save us 99% and give sin or Satan a single place. Jesus came to save, set us free and free indeed, not in parts.

WALKING THE WALK
When you give your life to Jesus, He takes away your old, rotten life and gives you a brand new life, that is the reason it’s called new life in Jesus. Everyone who genuinely repents and accepts Jesus Christ into his or her life has this new life from Jesus Christ. When you are in Christ, you have new life and you start new lifestyle, not old lifestyle because new life produces new lifestyle.

Since it is new life, you can’t continue your old lifestyle in the new life, that would be incompatible and a double standard. Let’s see what Jesus Christ says in Matthew 9:17, “Nor do they put new wine into old wine-skins, or else the wine-skins break, the wine is spilled, and the wine-skins are ruined. But they put new wine into new wine-skins, and both are preserved.”

What does that means? It means new life is new lifestyle; new walk or you are a double standard person with double lost. You must start a new life in Jesus if truly you have gotten a new life. 2 Corinthians 5:17, "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new."

Some people claim to have a new life in Jesus and they continue in some parts of their old lives. Jesus said with new wine in old wine-skins, there will be double lost – the wine will spill and the wine-skins will be ruined. So also if you are living old lifestyle in new life, you will not fully and freely enjoy the old life and you will not enter heavenly kingdom, because Heaven does not recognize a 99% percent saved Christian. Double lost – no enjoyment on earth and no entrance to heaven.

Your lifestyle is an evidence of your new life in Christ or old life under the bondage of Satan. When you genuinely give your life to Jesus Christ, you work out your salvation by conscious striving to walk in new life, guided by the Word of God and empowered by the Grace of God. Ephesians 5:21-23. If truly you have been called into Salvation, you must walk worthy of that calling. How? You walk in the Spirit by the Word of God. Before, you were walking in the flesh and doing the will and work of the flesh, but after you surrender your life to Jesus Christ, you walk in the Spirit and bring forth the fruit of the Spirit. Read Galatians 5:16-24.

The way you talk will change, your dress and styles will change, the places you go will be cross checked by God’s Word, the work and business you are doing will be cross checked and guided y the Word of God. Henceforth, the Spirit of God guides every area of your life through the Word of God. It means as you read Bible and hears genuine Word of God; the Holy Spirit corrects and instructs you in the new life. Galatians 5:25.

Your lifestyle is a proof if you are truly a child of, or if you are still a child of God or not. Your lifestyle is your walk of life and it’s also your fruit of life. The Bible says, “By their fruit you shall know them.” Matthew 7:17. How you walk, that is, how you live your life, shows how related you are to Jesus. It not how long you have been in Christ, it is not how much you know about God or Bible, it is not how long you can pray or how you can speak in tongues, it is not even how you lived yesterday but how you are living now, your lifestyle now. It is not by talking or claiming by faith that you are a child of God. It is not by claiming the righteousness of Jesus and continuing in sin. This is not by talking the talk, not claiming the claim as many modern Christians and Pastors are doing now; it is about walking the walk.

Walking in the Spirit is not something that happen automatic when you give your life to Jesus. It is not something that you or people around you are not aware about, it is not something that God will do for you. You are the one who will walk the walk but by the help of Holy Spirit through reading daily Bible and prayer. When we want to walk in the Spirit, flesh, our body will want to oppose and rule over the Spirit of God in us, but we must consciously and continuously keep our body under the Spirit not over the Spirit. 1 Corinthians 9:27. This doesn’t happen by claiming by faith; it’s working it out by faith, not by fear, with the help of Holy Spirit.

Walking in the Spirit is not by ease or convenience, but by force, by striving, by discipline your body, by daily reading of Bible and prayer for God’s grace and strength. Daily quiet time with God which involves praises, prayer, Bible reading and prayer, that is the only source of strength and only secret of survival in the walking of new life in Christ Jesus, without that you will walk away.

WHO TO PLEASE
The other evidence of new life in Jesus Christ is who is your priority of pleasing? Before we gave our lives to Jesus, we were used to pleasing ourselves and people. Anything that was pleasant or pleasurable to us we did. We would not care if it displeased God, but as long it was pleasant to us, that were our pleasure. Then, if you feel like drinking, you drink, no offense. If you feel like getting mad at somebody and insulting somebody you do just that. If you feel like smoking you smoke. If you have huge for premarital sex or extra-marital sex, you go for it, because it pleases you. If you have reason for telling lies, you lie. Whatever you feel like doing for your pleasure or profit that you do.

It may also be to please people. In old life, if people ask you to lie, you will not want to offend them so you lie. If they ask you to do something sinful for them, you will not want to displease them, so you will do it even if it displeases God, you don’t give a dam. If your partner in courtship asks you for per-marital sex, you will not want to offend him or her, you do it. If a friend, family or your boss at work or lecturer at school ask you to do something ungodly, because you don’t want to offend them and loose their favor, you try to please them even if it displeases your Maker. You do your best to please yourself and people. That is old lifestyle.

But when you genuinely surrender your life to Jesus Christ and have a new life in Him, you no longer seek to please yourself or please people, you seek to please God first, anything that will please God and displease people you do, anything that will please people and displease God you don’t do. That means you please God and you love people only in what pleases God, outside of that you are out. You cannot walk in the flesh and please God at the same time; you will just be trying and struggling for nothing. Romans 8:8.

Pleasing God is living your life to please God, avoiding anything that will displease God even if it pleases you or people. Pleasing God is living according to God’s words and obeying His Word. 1 John 3:22.

HOW CAN WE PLEASE GOD?
How can we please God? We can only please God through faith. Faith in Jesus Christ, faith in the Word of God, faith that God is present, watching you every moment and will reward you for pleasing Him even if you loose many things by please God, even if no man accepts or rewards you. That was what helped Enoch and everyone who had ever pleased God. Hebrews 11: 5, 6. Faith is seeing beyond the physical, beyond the present pleasure and profit, beyond the present rewards and present world. When people around you are doing something to please themselves or their people for their pleasure and profit, when they see no reason not to do it, but you by faith see God and you will not want to displease Him. When everybody, even the so-called Christian, is doing it sinful in your place of work, in your family, in your school, or in the place you find yourself and they say it doesn’t matter, even in your church, when you see no one to offend if you do it, you ask yourself, “How will I do this and sin against God?” because by faith you see what others cant see, who others can’t see: GOD. They may say, “No one will see us, no one will be offended if we do it to ourselves, by ourselves for ourselves” but you see God by faith.

It takes faith to please God in this sinful and worldly life. When you believe the Word of God, it s your faith in God that will make you to please Him, it is faith that holds you till the end, and the same faith in God is what will give you access to see Him, enter His rest and be rewarded for your faith at the end of your life on earth.
Pleasing God is a clear evidence of your new life in Christ. If you are still pleasing yourself or people, then you need to rededicate your life to Jesus and surrender all and start this precious new life in Him.

Walking with God and pleasing Him is not something that is humanly easy, it takes your readiness, surrender and commitment with God’s grace. Old life will always try to revert back, old friends and our body will always try to get over the Spirit of God in us, but we keep the body under the Spirit, subdue it by God’s grace and strength. At the beginning, it may be very hard and Satan may suggest to you that you can’t survive the new lifestyle in Jesus, but that is a big lie. Many people like you have survived it and they are now in heaven, and our own is not different. God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. If God could help Enoch to walk with Him and please Him for 300 good years, He will also help us, it’s a step at a time. As we surrender all to Him and keep our daily Bible reading and prayer, His grace will sustain us to survive till the end. Decide not to go back to old sinful life; decide to follow Jesus forever, no turning back, no turning back!

I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.
- Galatians 2:20

Christianity EtcHow People (believers) Are Going To Hell Fire With 911 Buses by FreshGreen(op): 12:55pm On Mar 19, 2015
HOW PEOPLE (BELIEVERS) ARE GOING TO HELL FIRE WITH 911 BUSES

My revelation goes like this:- The Angel of the living God came to me and said, let us visit a place and suddenly we appeared in an office where we saw four men in the office and they were talking but I was not hearing what they were saying and they also did not see I and the Angel so, the Angel introduced the men like this (the G.O from the head quarter, the pastor of a branch and the other two pastors accusing the branch pastor) then, the Angel said these are the things that are happening in the churches, that when the Lord of the church comes in or when He send His Angels to the church, the people don't see or recognize His presence because they are busy fighting for positions, too occupied with the things of the world and the Lord or His Angel will take their leave.

Then the Angel said lets go and we went down the stairs,immediately, we appeared in a street here in Europe and immediately, we appeared in a busy road in Lagos Nigeria called (IKORODU ROAD) and we both stood in the middle (opposite Obanikoro bus stop) watching vehicles coming from Surulere and heading towards Maryland and there were these five 911 buses which came one after the other and in front of each bus, was written in capital letter DESTINATION (HELL FIRE very bold), by the side of the bus was this Bible verse Matt. 7:13 "Broad way leads to destruction"

When the first bus came, it was already filled with passengers from where it was coming from (each bus has two conductors) but the two conductors were still calling passengers and people were fighting to enter into the bus (they spoke with different languages) , the people entered through the two entrance doors of the bus, through the windows and some climbed the bonnet and entered through the wind screen; now let me describe the demons:- the one driving the bus has many hands with one he cleanse the side mirror, with one he adjust the side mirror, with one he cleanse the wind screen and with two, he was holding the steering he was ready to move and with one he was holding the gear, his eye balls were reddish.

One of the demon conductor has camel skin and was having dread on his head; the second demon was very black has the structure of a frog and they were both calling passengers like this:- hell fire! hell fire!! hell fire!!! the Rapture is about to take place, the Son of the Most High God is about to come, there is no time on our side hell hell! hell!! hell fire!!!! ( these was what the demons were shouting of at each 911 bus that came and as people were entering, these demons were mocking them and laughing this kind of mockery laugh)

But when the third bus came, it was filled with women, some were carrying loads on their heads, some on their backs, some were carrying bags, even some of them lapped themselves and only four men entered into the bus, among these four men was the two pastors we saw in the office of a church that was reporting the branch pastor so when these pastors met us were I and the Angel was standing, I told them to see how people are entering those buses with the bold writing DESTINATION:- HELL FIRE but before I could finish speaking, the two of them crossed the road and the older man entered through the window while the young man followed those one entering through the wind screen, I was calling them but the older one told me that they can't wait; that they would rather enter this bus which they have seen than to wait for the ones to come later.

Then I heard people calling my name from the sky that I should not cross the road and they said that there were you are (which is here on earth) is where we attached importance to positions like REV., BISHOP, PASTOR,EVANGELIST e.t.c but there (in Heaven) where they are, there is nothing like that because everybody is call brother or sister so it was then I realized that my feet were glued to where I was standing and I said to them I can't even move my feet from here. When these buses come, it will enlarge itself to enable it contains more passengers.

Now, when the fourth bus came, the Angel told me to call the attention of one of the conductors and I beckoned to the one at the back of the bus so he give me his attention but did not leave where he was but we could communicate and I asked him why were they calling passengers into the bus then he spoke like this:- Satan the devil our master asked us to bring more souls to hell and that there is no time on our side because the Rapture is about to take place and the Son of the Most High God is about to come.

Let me describe the demon that I spoke with:- he has frog structure very big almost the height of the 911 bus, has green eye balls, his teeth were sharp and rusted like old nails also, the teeth were stained with blood so when he finished talking with me he laughed this kind of mockery laugh and continued to call passengers into the bus.

Now when the fifth bus came, the Angel called my name and asked if I know the people that was entering those buses then I answered and said, no sir then I asked him who are they? Then he said that these are believers who because of one! One!! sin are entering these buses (sins like:- unforgiveness, pride, arrogant, lies, hatred, anger, gossip, unloving, strive e.t.c) he also said that in the Gospel of Mark chapter 16 he did not mention any verse that those who did not accept our Lord Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior are already condemned he also said that in 2 Timothy 2:24-26 that, the servant of the living God must not be quarrelsome; he then stretched out his right hand and asked can't you see them quarreling and fighting among themselves?, he said again the servant of the living God must be gentle, have self-control and he asked again, are they gentle or do they have self- control? he then said to me write it down and share it with your brethren.

God bless you all and I pray that we will not miss the RAPTURE in the Jesus mighty name, amen. - Sister B. T. Italy

Christianity EtcLeft-behind by FreshGreen(op): 1:24pm On Mar 18, 2015
L E F T - B E H I N D
Luke 17:35, "Two women will be grinding together: the one will be taken and the other left. Two men will be in the field: the one will be taken and the other left.”

If you miss your booked flight at the Airport, you can wait for another flight, but there is a flight you must not miss, because it will happen once, that is the flight of the rapture to heaven, it is called the catching away of the saints by Jesus.This rapture will happen within seconds when the angels of God will blow the trumpet…in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound. 1 Corinthians 15:52.

There will be sudden disappearance of Christians who have experienced genuine salvation, who have opened up their secret sins, settled needed restitution and living in holiness and righteousness from the blemishes of the world till the seconds of the rapture. Many people will be left behind throughout the world, many Christians will be left behind also, why? Because they are not well prepared. The left behind at the flight of the rapture will be left to blight of the Anti-Christ and eternal doom; that will be devastating and destructive occurrence which never happens since the beginning of the world. This unprecedented occurrence can happen any seconds from now without any warning or feeling of awareness.

If you have not surrendered your life to Jesus Christ as your Lord, you are at the danger of being left behind to the mercy of Satan, If you are postponing your salvation, you are in serious danger; you need to surrender your life to Jesus now. if you are a Christian and toiling with sins, rising and falling, you need to rededicate your life to Jesus totally now! If you have been saved, serving God but there are some little worldliness in your lifestyles or unconfesed sin, or inconsistency in your Bible reading, prayer life, Christian life, or unforgiving people you have ignored, or unsettled restitution, you may also be among the left behind group, you need to surrender and settle all now. It may happen right when you are angry or getting involved in something sinful, and that is the end.

You need to totally surrender all, every area of your life to Jesus and at all time, because the rapture will happen within seconds and there will not be second chance for another rapture.

Many Senior pastors and big ministers of God will be left behind, many church leaders, workers and many Christians will be left behind, and all unbelievers will be dazed, at last, it will happen!

If at the moment you are reading this message rapture has not happened, then you have the choice to make the rapture. Without delay, you need to surrender all to Jesus, if you are a believer, you need to check your life and surrender all, no sin is too small to hold you down not to make the rapture, even if your big pastors do not oppose it, even if you have reasons to support yourself, even if everybody is doing it. Don't be fooled, don't be arrogant or defensive at this time, just surrender all to Jesus, because He is coming any moment from now. You must leave behind your sins, sinful partners, materials and gains so that you will not be left behind.

You have a choice: leave all behind for Jesus now, let the people and world leave you behind or you are left behind at the rapture?

Matthew 25:13, ““Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.”

Christianity EtcHow To Pray Effectively by FreshGreen(op): 12:38pm On Mar 17, 2015
HOW TO PRAY EFFECTIVELY
“The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” James 5:16

Prayer is a very important weapon and way of life for every Christian. Christian race starts with prayer, grows with prayer and even ends with prayer. The sad case is that as more Christians are embanking on more prayers, as there are more programs for prayers, more prayer meetings, prayer grounds and mountains; as there are more people taking interest in praying to God, but there are less effective prayers. More people praying, more prayers being prayed but less prayers being effective and so we are seeing little effect of our large amount of prayers. It is not about praying that matters, it is not about more prayers that avails much, it is only effective prayer. So, before you throw yourself into more prayer, take time to learn how to pray effective prayer.

E F F E C T I V E – P R A Y E R
(1) Turn Righteous. To pray effectively, you must turn to a righteous life. This starts when you repent and turn away from your sins, then turn to new righteous life in Jesus Christ our Lord. It is not just fasting that makes prayer to be effective nor going to a big man of God; it’s living a righteous life, confessing and forsaking every sin, no matter how small. Clearing away any spot of sinful blemish and freely forgiving others is righteous living. Only the prayer of the righteous avails much. Let’s first take more time to grow in righteous living in Christ Jesus before we take more time to pray.

(2) Tune to Praises. When you totally dedicate your life to Jesus, you have assurance that whatever you ask God through Jesus, He will answer; this confidence makes you to give more praise unto God in your prayer time than petitioning. For the prayer of a righteous person in Christ to be effective, he must learn to praise and worship God before and after requesting.

(3) Take First Thing First. To pray effectively, you must be a righteous man and take the kingdom of God and His righteousness as your first priority. In your prayer life, you should take your righteous living first, spend more time to pray for God’s grace to live righteous life; confess your spiritual weakness to God and ask for strength to overcome sin and self. Then you should spend the little time remaining to pray on your physical, financial, marital, material, medical and other needs.

Do you wonder why spending more time to praise and pray for purity while you have a lot of urgent needs and issues? God knows all your needs even before you ask, what you need is more righteous living and praising God. Take more time to praise God and pray on your life of purity than praying on your problem, because it is not much prayer on your problem that will solve your problem but effective prayer of the righteous.

Lastly, don’t waste your precious time praying against witches, wizards, they are under your feet when you praise God and live righteous life, you just need to command them in Jesus name and they flee.

“Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” James 5:16

Christianity EtcThe Secrete Of Serving God by FreshGreen(op): 10:01am On Mar 16, 2015
THE SECRETS OF SERVING GOD (PLEASE READ THIS)
"Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need." Hebrews 4:16

The truth is that, you either serve God or you serve the devil; you can not serve both together. To many, serving God seems difficult, while to others, it is like impossible or unattainable task. But when we do it right and realize the secrets, it becomes easy and successful.

THE RIGHT START!The only acceptable way to serve God is through Jesus Christ, you need to experience genuine salvation through Jesus Christ. Many are having it hard in their Christian lives because they have it wrong or they are taking it wrong way. Christian life without genuine salvation makes it terribly difficult and impossible. If you want to serve God acceptably and successfully, you need to start well. Genuine salvation starts with repentance; many are starting their Christian lives with confession, and they find it hard to overcome sin and Satan, they keep confessing and committing sins. Repentance is the solid base, it is realizing your sins and ready to forsake them. After your genuine readiness to forsake sins, then you go ahead and confess, ask God to forgive and cleanse you through the Blood of Jesus Christ; ask Him to save you, then you are saved.

RUNNING THE RACE: 2 ISSUES(1) The point is that your salvation helps you to forsake sins, but you can't forget everything about sin; after you surrender your life to Jesus, the formal thoughts of sin will still come, the tendencies and temptation will come. Some time you will feel weak and vulnerable, and suggestion may come to your mind to give in to sin by the pressures within and without. Sometimes, this pressure will be so pressing as if you can't but give in to it; people outside may be pressing you to yield to sin again. The memory of the past sin may flood your mind as if you have not be saved, and Satan will try to confuse you that you are not a child of God. Another common issue is after you have resisted a particular sinful habit and you think that is the end, you may be surprised that the tendency will re-surge after some months or years. You may be disturbed and wonder why that again? The reason is because Satan is not dead yet and he is desperate about your dear life. You resist him, he goes and then look for another opportunity to come, as he did to Jesus. "Now when the devil had ended every temptation, he departed from Him until an opportune time." Luke 4:13.

(2) After you rededicated or re-devoted your life to Jesus, you want to serve God, you want to please God, you want to pray more, you want to read God’s Word more; you want to preach God’s Word. But then you feel empty. When you want to pray, before you pray for 5 minutes you are empty, before you read few verses of Bible you feel sleepy, your heart is wondering about. It is like your prayer can’t be answered, as if you are not meant to be strong spiritually, as if you can’t be strong in prayer, as if God hates you or you are not a child of God. Has it happened to you before? What next came to your mind? "STOP!" That you should, “stop the prayer, the reading Bible, the new life in Jesus. You will always fumble, you are not meant for such life. You are naturally week and God is not really looking for such people like you.” The secret is that such a thought is not just ordinary; it is from the devil to discourage you from moving forward.

SO WHAT IS THE SOLUTION?(1) DON'T GIVE IN. Do not give in or yield to sinful thoughts, tendencies or temptations. We cannot pray that temptation should not come but we can pray unto God to deliver us from temptation, by His grace and strength. Keep resisting the devil as many times he comes with temptations, keep standing, don't relent, keep praying and watching every moment. Many Christians successfully resisted the devil at the first hand, but later they felt relaxed and fell afterward. A Christian who comes out of past nature of lust, immorality, masturbation or anger, he may stand to resist after his salvation but he needs to keep standing and resisting, because the tendencies may still come over again. The secret is that you keep resisting through prayer and Satan will keep fleeing from you.

(2) DON'T STOP. You are praying and you feel empty and wondering about? Don’t stop, continue the prayer, God understand your weakness. The secret is keep on the prayer, you will be filled by the Spirit of God before you finish the prayer. The secret is that the first few minutes of prayer, praising God in Spirit or reading Bible are likely to be distracted and discouraged; but if you don’t stop you will be filled, full and stronger.

The same thing is applicable in your new life in Jesus, in your re-devotion, re-dedication and consecration to God. It will first be un-natural, boring, discouraging, and cumbersome as if you can’t stay long, as if you can’t survive or sustain to the end, as if you can’t understand everything or be holy. Do you remember when you got your first phone and going through the manual? It was as if you would not get the functioning right, but now you are almost an expert, why because you didn’t stop using and practicing the phone. So also if you don’t stop in your new devotion to Jesus, you will get better and stronger. It is applicable to everyone, both the people in the past and present; all who have ever come to Jesus went through such striving, only they didn’t give up and many are passing though similar things. But Satan will want to personalize it to you as if you are the worst. The devil is a LIAR!

CO N C L U S I O N !

When the people, pressure, persuasion or feeling to commit sin comes again, DON’T YIELD! It is then you will discover the strength and grace of God as your weakness is turned to strength. When the feeling of being empty, of wondering of thoughts, of weakness, of discouragement and despair comes to stop you from your decision and move to serve God, DON’T STOP! If you don’t stop you will be strong. Take your weakness to God in prayer and get strength and grace everyday.

1 Peter 5:8. “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. 9 Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.”

Christianity EtcFlow Of Anointing And Blessing In Backsliding (2) by FreshGreen(op): 10:45am On Mar 13, 2015
FLOWING OF ANOINTING & BLESSINGS IN BACKSLIDING (2)

CONTINUOUS BLESSING
God brought the children of Israel from the bondage of Egypt to journey to the Promised Land. On their way in the wilderness, they sinned against God, ran into idolatry, yet God did not remove His pillar of the cloud that guided them by day, nor the pillar of fire by night. Nehemiah 9:18-19:
“Even when they made a molded calf for themselves,
And said, ‘This is your god
That brought you up out of Egypt,’
And worked great provocations,
19 Yet in Your manifold mercies
You did not forsake them in the wilderness.
The pillar of the cloud did not depart from them by day,
To lead them on the road;
Nor the pillar of fire by night,
To show them light,
And the way they should go.

The fact that you are still witnessing continuous testimonies of blessing in your personal life, even though you have been compromising and continuing in sin, it does not serve as a indication that God is overlooking your sins or He does not count them, and it does not mean God will not throw you into hell if you die in that covered up or common sin.

That you still hear from God personally or God keeps speaking to you through His prophets does not serve as a barometer that you are pleasing God. The children of Israel sinned against God and excruciatingly displeased Him, yet he kept the pillar of cloud and pillar of fire to guide them. Continuous checking your self in the word of God, watchfulness, prayer-fulness and fruitfulness in the Word of God are the right index and parameter for your spiritual condition.

CONTINUOUS MANNA
Manna was a food miraculously supplied by God to the Israelites during their years of wandering in the wilderness. God continuously provided manna for them for forty years without stopping even when they maliciously sinned and turned against Him in the wilderness. Exodus 16:35, " And the children of Israel ate manna forty years, until they came to an inhabited land; they ate manna until they came to the border of the land of Canaan."

The facts that the goodness and provisions of God continues in your life does not proves you are a candidate of heaven. The children of Israel committed sins against God that He was grossly displeased with them but He kept supplying manna to them. The flow of God’s provision and supplies that continues in your life or ministry, the financial, material blessings are not evidence of living right with God.

PROVISION OF QUAIL
Quail was a meat God miraculously provided for the children of Israel after they complained of eating manna alone. Though God was so much incensed with their lustful request, yet He provided the meat for them. Number 11:32, "And the people stayed up all that day, all night, and all the next day, and gathered the quail (he who gathered least gathered ten homers); and they spread them out for themselves all around the camp."

Answer of provisions from God is not an indication that God is well pleased with you or you are still His child. The children of Israel lusted for meat after God has satisfied them with manna, this desire and request originated from lust and covetousness, yet God answered and granted them. You can receive permissive will and answer from God, but that doesn't implies you asked aright because problem will always follow permissive will and answer from God. God does not want you to get something, He does not want you to marry the person, He does not want you to go somewhere or He does not want you to start a business, but you insist with fasting and prayer; God may permit you, but problem will soon proceed therein.

God’s provision, blessings and goodness flowing into the life of a Christian cannot stop God from punishing him of his sin at the end. God can still continue to bless a man even if he had committed or still committing sin, and that can not stop God from judging him according to his sin if such man does not repent and forsake the sin. The children of Israel lusted for meat, God provided the meat for them, and few moment after He punished them for asking for the same meat. Numbers 11:33, "But while the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, the wrath of the Lord was aroused against the people, and the Lord struck the people with a very great plague."

In your sin, God can be blessing you massively, you can be experiencing protection, provisions and preservation, but that does not mean you will not go to hell fire if you die now, and it does not mean you will make rapture if it happens now. The children of Israel were enjoying God's provision and protection, but majority of them could not enter the Promised Land, because of their sin. The end time false teaching that if you are righteous, you will enjoy prosperity or prosperity is a sign of righteousness, such teachings are from the pit of hell. You can be flourishing as a Christian in your business and finances, you can have the flow of anointing in your life as a minister, but without present and persistent holiness, you will end up in hell after all. So it happened to majority of the children of Israel, they got heavenly manna, and they perished and went to hell, because of unrepented sins.

Christianity EtcFlow Of Anointing And Blessing In Backsliding (1) by FreshGreen(op): 12:40pm On Mar 12, 2015
FLOW OF ANOINTING AND BLESSING IN BACKSLIDING (1)
"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?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’" Matthew 5:22, 23.

Can we say a pastor or minister is a genuine minister of God and right with God as long as there is flow of anointing in his ministration? Can we also say a Christian is a genuine child of God simply because they are experiencing God's blessings and goodness? The Bible answer is no! Many are being deceived by what they see. The fact that a minister or preacher still experiences flow of gifts, miracles and anointing does not means he is right with God. The same thing is applicable to every Christian, you are experiencing God's favor, fortune, blessing, healing, miracles and so on, that do not qualify you to be a heavenly qualified Christian.

The signs and wonder in the ministrations of your Bishop, G.O, G.S Apostle or Pastor is not an evident that they are still right with God. Here are examples from the Bible:

SOLOMON WISDOM
King Solomon wisdom was a gift from God for him to fulfill and accomplish God’s purpose for his life. But when he was drifted into sin of adultery and eventually backslide into idolatry and cruelty, this gift of wisdom still remained, even to his surprise. Ecclesiastes 2:9, "So I became great and excelled more than all who were before me in Jerusalem. Also my wisdom remained with me."

The fact that minister of God is still manifesting some gifts God which they received at the beginning of their ministries, it does not implies they are still right with God. The fact that ministers are still experiencing the flow of anointing, prophesying, casting out demons, doing wonders and different miracles do not indicate they are still in right relationship with God; and the flowing of anointing in a minister of God or manifestation of their gifts is not a reason for you to copy their lifestyles, by concluding in your mind that God has already approved of them and whatever they do is right; if you do so, you may follow their lifestyles and doctrines which are opposite to the word of God, and find yourself to blame at the end.

I do baffle at how many Christians, including preachers, are running after fallible human begins as their mentors, by so doing, they pattern their lives, their ministries just as the person they set as mentor; they believe their mentors are right with God since they see flow of anointing, and by so doing they follow and copy some ungodly lifestyles and teachings of the mentors. Jesus alone is to be made a mentor, not any preacher or person, because only Jesus Christ is always right and never wrong; the Word of God is enough for us to take as life and ministerial Mentor.

Christianity EtcMoses Striking The Rock Second Time by FreshGreen(op): 11:55am On Mar 11, 2015
MOSES' STRIKING

When the children of Israel complained of thirsty in the wilderness the second time, God told Moses to speak to the rock before their eyes, Numbers 20:8. But instead, Moses disobeyed and struck the rock. Yet God answered and provided the water immediately, in fact that the water came out abundantly did not imply God was pleased with Moses' disobedience, and the fact that Moses disobeyed God did not stop God from performing miracle through him.

Numbers 20:7, 8, "Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 8 “Take the rod; you and your brother Aaron gather the congregation together. Speak to the rock before their eyes, and it will yield its water; thus you shall bring water for them out of the rock, and give drink to the congregation and their animals.”

Numbers 20:11, "Then Moses lifted his hand and struck the rock twice with his rod; and water came out abundantly, and the congregation and their animals drank."

As a minister, you can be carrying out ungodly projects in your ministry, building multimillion edifice while many members are suffering of lack of accommodation and food to eat, yet you can still experience abundant success and progress. Your church can build university with expensive fees, and yet the presence of God still continues. Your church can be unfaithful to the biblical way of using tithes and offering, and still experience God's presence abundantly. Your pastors and church can be using different ungodly administrative systems, preaching heresies, and still continue to experience signs and wonders.

As a person, you can be displeasing God, doing things that are not approved by the Lord, and yet things will be working for you. You know what? Moses disobeyed God and miracle followed his disobedience, but he was disqualified from entering the Promised Land. Your disobedience may not stop God's blessing in your life, and as a minister of God or church, your disobedience, selfishness, lies, worldliness, indulgences, unfaithfulness to spending offerings and extravagant lifestyle may not necessarily hinder God's flowing of anointing and flourishing of blessings in your lives and church, but they will definitely disqualify you from making heaven if you do not repent now.

If a minister of God sins or begin to live or teach enormously, he may still continue to experience signs and wonders and the anointing flowing, but his name has been removed from the book of life and he no longer qualify for heaven, yet the anointing may keep on flowing with miracles, signs and wonders. After God answered Moses’s prayer with miracle of water supply even in his disobedience, God sentenced him in His judgment in the following verse of Numbers. 20:12, "Then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, “Because you did not believe Me, to hallow Me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.”

God is not a respecter of any man, even the greatest man of God on earth in the Old Testament, in the person of Moses, was judged by God. God is not partial to overlook or cover sin of anyone, minister or members. He could not overlook the sin of a man after His heart like David, but gave due punishment. So any minister or Christian who commits sin, who teaches or lives in an unbiblical manner may still experience continuous flowing of anointing and blessings but he is playing with eternal judgment and condemnation if he does not repent now.

Jesus said, “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!." Matthew 7:22, 23.

Christianity EtcYou Will Never Die by FreshGreen(op): 1:11pm On Mar 10, 2015
YOU WILL NEVER DIE…..
(You don’t need to make too much effort to prolong your life, because your life will never end actually.)

You cannot die and you will never die! This is not a prayer, it’s not a joke and it’s not a lie, it’s nothing but a hidden truth. As long as you are a human being with spirit and soul, you will not and cannot die.

In the book of Genesis 3, the serpent, devil, said to Eve, “you will not surely die” This is truth, only that Eve didn’t understand the deep meaning of it, and so Satan used it to trick her.

God created us in His own image, that image of God is never dying image, unending image and nor-terminated image. That image is your soul. The image of God in human being is the living soul, which goes beyond the physical body. The breath of God in a man is the life, the soul of a man. The soul of a man is his real image, real person and figure. That real person is inside your body that is your soul. As your body has parts so also your soul, as your body has feelings and senses so also your soul.

Your soul living inside your body is the real, original person that you are, your soul is the real you, and he never dies. The most important aspect of you is your soul, not your body. Your soul is permanent while your body is temporal. Your soul never dies but your body dies. Your soul is never ending, but your body will end by death. The end of your body is the beginning of your soul – the ending of your bodily existence is the beginning of your soul existence forever. You, as an entity, are an eternal, everlasting product of the breath of God. Psalm 49:7, 8:
“None of them can by any means redeem his brother,
Nor give to God a ransom for him—
8 For the redemption of their souls is costly,
And it shall cease forever”

Your body is a shadow of a substance which is your soul. Shadow easily fades away but the substance remains. So also is your body as a mere shadow that can fade away any time, but you soul is the substance of your body. As it’s foolish to consecrate on the shadow more than the substance so it’s to everyone who cares and consecrate on their bodily wellbeing more than their souls.

You will not surely die!
This is a statement from Satan to Eve, it’s a truth but half-truth and Satan used it to entrap Eve. When Satan said, “you will surely not die” Eve should have asked,” How or when?” Half-truth, sometime, is more dangerous than falsehood. Satan can use our ignorance, our little understanding to entrap us. That is the reason Bible warms us not to be ignorance of Satan’s devices. One of the major devices of Satan is half -truth, quoting the word of God and mixing it up to deceive people. He tried to use it against Jesus Christ, quoting the scriptures (truth) half way and interpreting it in a wrong way, but Jesus knew the whole truth, and He was not ignorant of the devices of Satan. Half truth is half way that leads to wrong way. It’s not every spirit that quotes scripture in your mind that is from God, it’s not every preacher that quotes scripture belongs to God, and not every thought, suggestion or advice supported by scripture that is godly. So don’t be fooled, you need to search the whole scriptures, read the whole scripture and ask the Holy Spirit to help you understand the whole scripture before you can know the whole truth, you need to the know the whole truth before you can be free from the whole deceptions of Satan.

Here is the whole truth about the statement Satan made to Eve in Genesis 3:4, “you will not surely die”, the total truth is, “your soul not dies, and if you follow the advice and suggestion of Satan, you will not die in hell fire. Satan was actually saying, “Yes, as long as you follow my suggestion, you will not die, but in hell fire”.

The Embodiment
You are an embodiment of a personality which contains your body and your soul. You have a physical body, inside of it is a soul, and between both are spirit and self: these are channels. Your spirit is like your God’s given conscience to give you the knowledge of what is good and wrong and to suggest the good for you to choose. Your self is an adamic, sinful nature which Satan uses to suggest evil, sinful thoughts and suggestions into your mind. In between bad and good suggestions is your ability, or freedom of choice as a free moral agent.

Born Bad
Everyone was conceived and born in sin right from the fall of Adam. Psalm 51:5, “Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity,and in sin my mother conceived me.With this natural and sinful nature, your soul is defiled and doomed to destruction; your conscience is contaminated as your own “self” dominates. That is your real picture, in the real sense. Urgently as a matter of reality, you need Jesus Christ in your life to help you with your real situation.

Born Again
Since everybody is born with a bad nature, and bred with a bad notion, there is need to be born again. John 3:3, “Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” To be born again means to have your bad nature, life transforms to a good and godly one. That only happens through Jesus Christ. You need to accept Jesus Christ into your life before He can transforms your life. Then how? Since you were conceived in sin, born in sin, and brought up in sin, you need to admit you are a sinner. But admitting you are a sinner will not make a different. Except you are ready to forsake your sins and old lifestyles, then you confess them to Jesus Christ, ask Him to forgive you and also cleanses you with His precious blood that was shed on the cross. Then you ask Him to save you.

Here is the truth: Jesus Christ is the only One empowered by God to forgive sins, no matter how terrible or how long the sins have been in your life. Another good thing is that when Jesus forgives you, He also cleanses you. He pardons all your sins, all! He removes the contamination and consequences of those sins.

What Happen?
When you come to Jesus, accept Him into your life by repenting from your sins, confessing them, forsaking them, and then surrendering your life to the Lordship of Jesus Christ, what happen? Here is what takes place in your life immediately:

(1) Total forgiveness from God. God, through Jesus Christ, forgives all your sins which you ever committed, and wipe them away from your record as if you never committed any sin at all. Too good to be truth but its truth, it is called good news.

(2) Total cleansing from God. God, through the blood of Jesus, cleanses your defiled soul and redeems it by the sacrifice of Jesus. Since you were born in sin, your soul was doomed to destruction with Satan. To be free from that destruction, you or someone else needs to redeem you. The bitter truth is that no man can redeem his own soul or another person's soul; it’s too costly for any man. Psalm 49:7, 8. But the better truth is that Jesus Christ has already made the sacrifice and fully paid the redemption for your soul. He died on the cross and rose the third day just because of you. When you surrender your life to Jesus Christ, He immediately redeems your soul by cleansing and restoring your soul from the bondage and destruction of Satan. Psalm 49:15, “But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave, for He shall receive me.”

He also cleanses your contaminated conscience. “knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers,19 but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.” 1 Peter 1:18, 19.

(3) Total reconciliation with God. When you surrender your life to Jesus Christ, He reconciles you back with God. The relationship that was lost from the Garden of Eden, the relationship between man and God that was cancelled in the Garden of Eden will be reconciled and restored between you and God.
(4) Total Assurance of Heaven. When you surrender your total life unto God, Jesus Christ will give you a big ticket to enter heaven and be with Him in beautiful heaven forever and ever. What a beautiful, glorious place you must not miss! John 14:2, “In My Father’s house are many mansions;[a] if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.” Instead of you to be doomed in hell fire forever, you will now be decorated in heaven by angels with Jesus Christ forever.

What are you waiting for?
Then what are you waiting for? Now you need to bring your life to Jesus and surrender it unto Him for His transformation and regeneration. You don’t need to delay further. You need to give your old life, polluted life up to Jesus so He can give you a brand new life in Him. Delay can be dangerous, do it now. Admit your sins, surrender all to Jesus, ask Him to forgive you and cleanse you. Accept Him to be the Lord of your life and determine to be pleasing Him and following Him for the rest of your life till you get to heaven, no turning back to sin and the sinful world.

You about to experience unspeakable peace of divine touch, unusual.Just pray it in prayer now!

Christianity EtcNo Condemnation, No Continuity by FreshGreen(op): 10:28am On Mar 09, 2015
NO CONDEMNATION, NO CONTINUITY!
"When Jesus had raised Himself up and saw no one but the woman, He said to her, “Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you?”
11 She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said to her, “Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more.” John 8:10,11

The simple definition of Christianity is, no condemnation and no continuity. God does not condemn you no matter what you have done or what you are doing, but when you come to Jesus, you should not continue in the sinful life.

Coming to Jesus and continuing in sin is a fake and satanic form of Christianity with no eternal life.

A person who claims to be a Christian and still continues in sin is condemned already

Preaching the message of "No condemnation in Christ" without completing it with "No continuity in sin" is a half truth and destructive.

Now you can come to Jesus, confess your sins, and forsake them. The grace comes by daily Bible reading, prayer and watchfulness.

If you know this and do it, it will do you good.

Christianity EtcWomen In Ministry 2 by FreshGreen(op): 10:05am On Mar 07, 2015
WOMEN IN MINISTRY Part 2

In some church programs, in their printings awareness, they put the pictures of wives of the senior pastors next to the senior pastors. The question is that, "does a woman automatically becomes a preacher or teacher simply because her husband is a minister?" The Bible answer is NO. All the women used by God in the Bible that were called prophetesses didn't get into the position because their husbands were prophets. The wives of ministers in the church ought to follow normal protocol and submit to all church’s authority as other women. In the world, we have first lady and others, but Bible does not make room for that in the church; women, including the wives of the senior pastors, should learn in silence with all submission. The wives of the ministers in the churches and ministries ought to support their husbands, and not to second them.

"Let a woman learn in silence with all submission."
When God calls a man to be a minister, it does not means the wife is automatically called to be minister, but she is called to support her husband; she is supposed to support his husband and not to exercise authority over "men", that is, men called into the same ministry under her husband, and "men" who are leaders in the church. The wife of senior pastor is supposed to submit to the least of the pastor in the church as other women. When God calls a man, it is wrong for his wife to usurp, to use the God's given authority of the called husband to command "men". Today, almost all the wives of the ministers are also ministers, why? Why do we see the wives of Senior Pastors being called Pastors, and the wives of Bishops being called Bishops or Pastor? But there was nothing like that in the Bible. The wives of the ministers of God in the Bible learnt in silence and all submission, you hardly hear about them, because they were to learn in silence and stay behind their husbands to support, not to shout as the second in command.

Did you hear anything about the wives of the prophets in the Old Testament and the Apostles in the New Testament? At least, we read that Apostle Peter had a wife, but they all learnt in silence with all submission.

A pastor's wife who exercises authority over "men" and enjoys "minister" prerogative is working against the scriptures and her eternity. A woman who exercises "ministers" authority without being called by God personally is committing robbery, a woman who is exercising authority over men because her husband is a minister is committing usurpation. If a woman is called by God, she can lead men as did Deborah in the Bible, if her husband is called by God, she should support her husband and be submissive to the authority of the church. Such a woman can lead other women in the church, but not to share the authority and honour of her husband over the church. Only men and women genuinely called by God should take the honor of leadership, and not their spouses. Hebrews 5:4, "And no man takes this honour to himself, but he who is called by God, just as Aaron was."

If a man is called by God to start a ministry, the wife can assist and work with him as assistant at the elementary stage, but as soon as God brings qualified men into the ministry, the wife should stay behind her husband. It is biblically wrong for a minister to impose his wife or children on the church or the leadership of the church as part of the leaders. Those churches where the wives or sons of the senior pastors are next to them in position, such churches and ministries are just business centres and worldly. You will not see or hear the wife of a godly and steadfast pastor making noise, they are usually silent, right from Genesis to the our present time.

Church or ministry affair is not a family affair, it is the affair of God and only the Spirit of God appoints in a spiritual church; churches or ministry where leadership appointment are made by the reason of family ties or financial tendency have lost their spiritual values, and they can never experience revival until they repent and amend their ways. It is unbiblical for the wife or son of the senior pastor to succeed the leadership without evident appointment by God. If the purpose of our working for God is to glorify God and receive rewards in heaven, then, let's follow the Bible and avoid all ungodly gains.

Philippians 2:3, 4, "Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. 4 Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others."

Christianity EtcWomen In Ministry by FreshGreen(op): 2:52pm On Mar 06, 2015
WOMEN IN MINISTRY Part 1
1 Timothy 2:11, 12, " Let a woman learn in silence with all submission. 12 And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence."

Every word of God is Yes and Amen and profitable for reading, meaning no part of the Word of God should be taken for granted. Instead of ignoring some parts or verses of the Bible, it is better to seek God's face for spiritual understanding.

Apostle Paul gave instructions about women in the church and ministry; these instructions are scriptures not human opinion. Every verse of the Bible is part of the scripture and must be obeyed by every child of God. So, the Bible says, “Let a woman learn in silence with all submission. And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence." What does this actually means, if we should ask? Does it mean women are not permitted to become ministers, to teach or preach in the church?

Some churches interpret it just like that, they say women are not permitted to teach or preach in the Bible, they do not allow their women to minister or become ministers, and so they claim to obey the scripture as Apostle Paul stated. But the truth is that, if we should literally follow the instructions, they go beyond women teaching and preaching. In 1 Corinthians 14:34, 35, the Bible says “Let your women keep silent in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak; but they are to be submissive, as the law also says. 35 And if they want to learn something, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is shameful for women to speak in church." So the matter includes women asking questions in the Sunday or Bible Study, women singing or probably reading Bible. Then no church really obeys these instructions, because churches that disallow their women from teaching and preaching in the church do permit their women to ask questions or to read Bible in the church.

So does that mean we are all disobeying the Word of God or we should ignore this scripture out rightly? I don't think that will help either because every verse of the Bible is part of the inspired scripture, word of God settled in heaven. I think the best solution is to ask the Holy Spirit to help us understand what these scriptures mean.

WOMEN MINISTERS IN THE BIBLE
These Bible passages do not imply women cannot teach, preach or say something in the church, I think they have deeper and more serious meaning. I believe women can teach, preach, prophesy and minister in the church because God used several women to minister in Old Testament, where gender laws were even stricter, and New Testament. So then the instructions the Holy Spirit used Apostle Paul to give in 1 Timothy 2 and 1 Corinthians 14:34 are not to ban or disallow women from ministering in the church or in ministry. In Old Testament, there were several prophetesses used by God to lead men and the whole nation of Israel. In Exodus 15:20, we read about Miriam the prophetess. In Judges 4:4, we read about Deborah, a prophetess who judged the whole nation of Israel for forty good years. Judges 5:7, 31. We also read about Huldah the prophetess in 2 Kings 22:14. In Nehemiah 6:14, Noadiah was a prophetess. There was a prophetess in Isaiah 8:3. In the New Testament, there was a prophetess called Anna, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. Luke 2:36. Evangelist Philip had 4 daughters who were prophetesses, “Now this man had four virgin daughters who prophesied. “Acts 21:9.

Being a prophetess is greater than being a teacher or pastor. Ephesians 4:11, "And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers". If the Spirit of God could ordain women to be prophetesses, then the same Spirit of God cannot disallow them from preaching and teaching.

WHAT TO LEARN: TOTAL SUBMISSION
So what can we get or understand from those two Bible passages about women in the church? Let's start from 1 Timothy 2: 11, 12, “Let a woman learn in silence with all submission. 12 And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence." From these Bible verses, by the help of Holy Spirit, we can learn women should be submissive, especially ministers' wives. The fact that a woman is the wife of a senior pastor or G.O does not automatically makes her to be the second in command. These Bible passages may be more directly or particularly to the wives of ministers in the churches and ministries. 1 Timothy 2:12 says, “Let a woman learn in silence with all submission." Here we see "all submission", that is the wives of pastors, senior pastors, Bishops, General Overseers or Apostles/church founders should submit to all the leadership of the church. 1 Corinthians 14:35 says, “And if they want to learn something, let them ask their own husbands at home.” That means their husband must be godly people who really understand the Word of God, so that may be applicable to the wives of the ministers. But does that means the wife of a pastor cannot ask question in church? No, but they cannot interrupt or usurp. All women can ask question during the question time, but if time does not permits, the women can ask the ministers after the program and the wife of the pastor can ask her husband at home.

It is biblically wrong for a church's senior pastor or founder to make his wife second in command; a godly woman who is a wife of the pastor must be submissive to the leadership of the church, not just to her husband, the Bible says "all submission". The system where the wife is next to the husband as a pastor is wrong. In most churches today, the wives of pastors are automatically next to their husbands, and that is wrong. God does not make those wives to be the next, but the husbands or the church system did. It is wrong for ministers wives to seat above authority. The system where the wife of the senior pastor is above the assistant pastor is ungodly; the system where the wife of the senior pastor seats on the altar beside the husband is wrong, the wife ought to seat behind, not beside. Most denominations make the wives of the pastors above the assistant pastors, such system is not biblical. Some churches make the wives of the senior pastors next to the senior pastors, so when the senior pastors die, their wives take over the authority, such system is unbiblical.

Christianity EtcWhen Heaven Opens by FreshGreen(op): 10:28am On Mar 05, 2015
WHEN HEAVEN OPENS
2 Kings 7:19, “Then that officer had answered the man of God, and said, “Now look, if the LORD would make windows in heaven, could such a thing be?”

Open heaven has become a common topic in Christianity and Churches today, several church programs are titled “Open heaven” , books, devotions and others are tagged with “Open heaven”. Many Christians even pray the prayer of open heaven, asking God to open their heavens. But it seems that much as many people delight in open heaven, only few people really understand what it means for heaven to open.

From Genesis to Revelation, there were occurrences of the experience of heaven or windows of heaven being opened. In the Bible, there are promises and predictions of open heaven by God, since He is the only One who has the keys to open heaven. From the light of the Bible, open heaven brings two things, meaning, when heaven opens, either of the two things – blessing or judgment. What we receive when heaven opens depends on us, on the way we have been responding to the word of God. Open heaven is not an automatic blessing or synonymous to blessing; open heaven can bring you abundant blessing or abundant judgment, depending on you.

OPEN HEAVEN OF JUDGMENT
Genesis 7:11, 12, “In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. 12 And the rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights.”

The first experience of open heaven in the history of the world was during the time of Noah, this open heaven was not a pleasant one, because it did not bring blessing, but fierce judgment upon the disobedient. After the generation turned wicked before God and refused to repent and obey God, then God opened heaven and poured rain of judgment for forty days and forty nights. There can be rain of blessing and also rain of judgment when heaven opens. This first open heaven experience on earth destroyed the whole generation except Noah and his household.

Another experience of open heaven after Noah was also an open heaven of judgment. God rained brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah. In Genesis 19:24, 25, “ Then the LORD rained brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah, from the LORD out of the heavens. 25 So He overthrew those cities, all the plain, all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew on the ground.”

It is a good thing to pray for open heaven, but it is better to first open up your heart to God in total obedience before you wish heaven opens on you. Open heaven of God without open heart to God brings judgment of God.

Believing God’s word leads to obedience to God’s word, and that leads to blessing abundantly. But on the other hand, disbelieving God’s word brings disobedience to God’s word, which leads to judgment of God.

In the time of Elisha when there was a severe famine, king Joram’s right-hand man disbelieved and scoffed God’s word when Elisha said there would be plenty of food within 24 hours. This officer would not believe and trust God’s word for open heaven of blessing, so he experienced judgment from the open heaven; while others feasted, he was trampled to death. 2 Kings 7:17, 18.

God said, ““This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him!” There are two commandments of God from this statement: 1, Accept Jesus Christ as the Son of God, Savior of the world. 2, Obey Jesus Christ, meaning surrender your life to Him and live to please Him in godliness, righteousness and truth. Failure to obey both will only lead to judgment of God. If you reject Jesus as the Savior, you are destined for God’s judgment; if you refuse to surrender your total life to Jesus in holiness after you have known Him as the Savior, you are doomed for eternal judgment of God.

Isaiah 24:18, “And it shall be
That he who flees from the noise of the fear
Shall fall into the pit,
And he who comes up from the midst of the pit
Shall be caught in the snare;
For the windows from on high are open,
And the foundations of the earth are shaken.”

OPEN HEAVEN OF BLESSING
“Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today…… The LORD will open to you His good treasure, the heavens, to give the rain to your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hand. You shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow.” Deuteronomy 28:1, 12

The windows of heaven can open and pour blessings upon us when we trust and obey God. Trusting God for what He says, and obeying what He says are the only means by which we can experience blessing when heaven opens. Obedience to God’s word always attract blessing from heaven. When a Christian prays, “Father, let my heaven open” if such Christian is living against God’s word and disobeying God’s commands, though heaven will surely open, because he demands for it, but it will only bring judgment. When we read God’s promises of open heaven, there is always commands attached to it, it is when such commands from God are obeyed that heaven will pour down blessing.

Malachi 3:10, “……And try Me now in this,”
Says the LORD of hosts,
“If I will not open for you the windows of heaven
And pour out for you such blessing
That there will not be room enough to receive it.”

In the Book of Malachi, God promised open heaven on the condition of obedience to His Word - trusting God with our money and paying out tithes. But this is not the only condition of experiencing open heaven, there are more weightier commandments of God than paying tithes, so if someone pays his tithes but does not live a righteous and holy life, the open heaven will not bring blessing. There were group of people in the Bible who were faithfully paying tithes but they were unfaithful in pleasing God, and so they were condemned.

Matthew 23:23, ““Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faith. These you ought to have done, without leaving the others undone.”

If you fulfill the righteousness of paying tithes but fail to fulfill the righteousness of presenting yourself as a holy and living sacrifice, then your tithes and offerings are baseless.

Jesus Christ experienced open heavens in His earthly ministry after He fulfilled all righteousness.
Matthew 3:15-17, “But Jesus answered and said to him, “Permit it to be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he allowed Him.16 When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him. 17 And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”

Open heaven brings blessing when we obey God’s word and fulfill His will.

THE ULTIMATE OPEN HEAVEN
There have been several open heavens since the beginning of this world, but there is an ultimate open heaven coming upon the whole world. This will serve as grand finale open heaven, Jesus Christ and His angelic armies will stream into the world. As open heaven brings blessing and judgment, so it will be at this ultimate open heaven. There will first be open heaven of rapture for the obedient children of God, and then another open heaven of second coming of Jesus Christ for judgment on the disobedient.

Revelation 19:11, “Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war.”

Like the people in the time of Noah, many are scoffing and disbelieving this upcoming great event , so they have no reason to obey and prepare. Apostle Peter warned about such people:

“knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, 4 and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.” 5 For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water, 6 by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water. 7 But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.” 2 Peter 3:3-7

You will not have cause to obey God’s word and keep yourself pure if you do not believe that Jesus is coming soon to take His obedient children to a blessed heaven, and to judge the sinners and careless Christians into eternal damnation. You may also echo with the king’s officer that, “even if the Lord should open windows of heavens, could this happens?” How can it be possible that this beautiful world will be thrown into hell fire? How can God pour billions of people into hell fire? Unbelievable! This sounds like a joke. That was how it seemed like joke to the people of Sodom and Gomorrah.

When the angels of God instructed Lot to warn the Sodomites that God would soon open the windows of heaven and rain fire and brimstone on them, it was like a joke. “So Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, who had married his daughters, and said, “Get up, get out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city!” But to his sons-in-law he seemed to be joking.” Genesis 19:14.

It was a matter of time, the joke became reality to them, but too late to repent. Genesis 19:24, 25, “Then the LORD rained brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah, from the LORD out of the heavens. 25 So He overthrew those cities, all the plain, all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew on the ground.”

You should not be another victim of unbelief for destruction, it is better to learn from the history and be wise. God has made Jesus Christ to be an atonement for the whole world. Jesus is coming back again to justify His obedient saints and judge the disobedient sinners. For the obedient believers, the coming of Jesus will bring so much blessing that we “will not have room enough for it” But for the unbelievers and careless Christians, it will bring utter ruin and misery that will be so much unbearable. Matthew 13:42, 43 “And will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth. 43 Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”

If you are part of the unbelievers who reject Jesus as their Lord, you are in a dangerous team. And also if you are part of Christians who do not believe in holiness, without which no one will see God, if you think no need for restitution after salvation, if you think there is no need for total holiness and righteousness, then you are in serious danger; if you are part of the prosperity Christians who do not see purity of life as necessity for believer, if you are part of the Christians who believe in grace without holiness, who believe in claiming righteousness without living righteous, then you are part of the end time scoffers of holiness and godliness for God’s judgment.

THE ULTIMATE BLESSING!
The ultimate blessing you can experience in your life is genuine salvation of your soul and following Christ in total obedience. You can make your experience of open heaven to be a blessed and blissful experience, no matter your past and present; all you need is to believe in Jesus Christ as your Lord, repent, confess and surrender your life to Him. And after that, you start a new life in Him.

1 John 1:8, 9, “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

Christianity EtcThe Acts Of Genuine Faith by FreshGreen(op): 7:35am On Mar 03, 2015
THE ACTS OF GENUINE FAITH

Hebrews 11:6, “But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.”

Faith in God is not just to believe God for miracle or something, but it is to please God. To believe who God is and displease Him at the same time are contradictory opposite. If you believe that God is holy, righteous, and faithful and you are living unholy, unrighteous and unfaithful life it means your faith in God is fake. Genuine faith in God seeks to please in His commands.

“But without faith it is impossible to please Him.” Hebrews 11:6. It is not possible to please God without faith, and it is not possible to have faith without pleasing God. Those preachers and churches who claim faith without holiness and righteousness are false. If your understanding about faith in God is believing God for blessing and miracle, then you have not gotten the clear understanding of the biblical faith.

Genuine faith of the Bible is believing God and pleasing God at the same time. If you believe and you fail to please Him in obedience to His commands, then your faith is fake and unfruitful. Faith without fruitfulness in the word of God is fake. Faith alone will amount to nothing if not accomplished with the work of righteousness. Believing alone without behaving to please God is bad.

Bible categorizes those who believe God without working righteousness as fools, because even demons are better than them. How? Do you know that demons also believe God, and they even tremble? Yet they are condemned, so your belief in God without work of righteousness is empty. James 2:19, 29 “You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?”

Faith in God without working righteousness in God is dead, such faith is of same level with the faith of demons, and such churches and preachers who teach that all you need is faith in God and His righteousness without you pleasing God in righteous living are teaching doctrines of demons. Demons believe there is God, they believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God and they tremble. Mark 5:7, “And he cried out with a loud voice and said, “What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I implore You by God that You do not torment me.”

So you believe there is God? Devil and demons do. You believe Jesus Christ is Lord? Devil and demons do believe also, they even tremble before God which many “so called” Christians don’t. So what makes difference between your faith and demons’ faith if your faith lacks work of righteousness?

One of the doctrines of demons of this end time is faith without work; it teaches to just believe, confess and cash, but such faith never produces righteousness or holy living in such believers; they are loud in their confessions, they claim to be the righteousness of God, but they lack fruit of righteousness. Apostle Paul warned of such believers, preachers and churches, “having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!” 2 Timothy3:5.

Faith in God, in Jesus Christ as the Savior is form of righteousness, but the power thereof is living to please God in righteousness and holy living. If you believe in faith without pleasing God in holiness and righteousness, you are ruining your soul, if you are going to a church that teaches faith without working righteousness, you must run away from such, and if you have any book, CD or Christian material that emphasises on faith in God without emphasis on pleasing God in holiness, you must destroy such; Bible warning is “And from such people turn away!” 2 Timothy3:5.

Have you gotten genuine faith that pleases God and produces righteousness in your life since you have believed? If not, why not now? All you need to do is to embrace the truth and abandon false teachings about faith; rededicate your life to Jesus and start a new faith that will not fail you on the rapture day.

Jude 3, 4 “Beloved, while I was very diligent to write to you concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints. 4 For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Christianity EtcFaith, Fake And Fate by FreshGreen(op): 10:20am On Mar 02, 2015
FAITH, FATE AND FAKE, Please Read This!
It is paramount for you to crosscheck the base and principle on which you are living your life. Reading this article will be of good by the help of the Holy Spirit.

Everybody in this life, irrespective of their religion or life view, lives maybe by faith, by fate or by fake, and many times, these three life’s bases seem similar and can be mistaken to another if proper care is not taken. That is the reason this message is to clarify the three.

How have you been living all these while? But the good news is that is right beside you to help to live this year as the best ever and as to begin for better life.

LIVING BY FATE / Pronounce as /feit/
According to online dictionary, fate is the development of events outside a person's control, regarded as predetermined by a supernatural power. From this definition, we can reword fate as living outside one’s control by supernatural power – supernatural power is power above human power which could by God’s power or Satan’s power, but since God does not work by fate, hence it is Satan’s power.

To live by fate is to throw your destiny to the air for Satan to control; it is like one releasing the control of his ship to the wave of the sea. Every religion in this world is based on fate (you know Christianity is not a religion, it is a relationship with God), and so people under religion are controlled with crisis, not Christ; they are living in pieces, no peace; they settle with anything that circumstances bring their ways, since they have no control, and they are not sure who, what or how their situations are being controlled, they live everything to fate.

People living by fate live in fear, because fear is a roommate of fate since nothing is certain. People living by fate have no faith in Christ; they reject or refuse Jesus Christ as their Lord. People living by fate live the way they please even in unpleasant and sinful manners in Satan’s freedom of bondage – seeing themselves as the controllers of their lives while Satan is their Dictator. They believe in their father’s religion or their framed philosophy.

Living by fate is living by probability, nothing is certain, not even where they are ending to after dead; everything is dim and blurry. There is no life as dangerous as living by fate.

LIVING BY FAKE
Fake is something not genuine; imitation or counterfeit. This is counterfeit of something original – Faith - fake faith. If you are a Christian, a church member, a Christian worker, a Christian leader or a Christian minister, it means you know what faith in Christ is all about, but do you know Satan does manipulates faith or exchange it along the way and turns it fake? That is the reason it is imperative for every Christian to constantly examine their faith in Christ lest it turns to fake. “Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves.” 2 Corinthians 13:5.

Characteristics Of Fake Faith:
(i) Confession Without Repentance. The beginning of fake faith is confessing sins to God without first repenting from those sins. If you want to surrender your life to Jesus or you want to rededicate your life to Him, and then you start with the prayer of confession of sin without first repenting from that sin, you will always find yourself confessing and committing sins. Repentance is realizing your sins as sins and ready to forsake them. If you are confessing the sin you have not made up your mind never to commit again, is that not a bundle of fake?

(ii) Good Claiming Without Godly Characters. The common feature of fake Christian faith is claimings that lack godly living; claiming the righteousness of Jesus without living righteous life, claiming to be a child of God without lifestyle of holiness; claiming, “there is no condemnation” while they continue in sin and have unsettled restitution. Such faith is fake.

(iii) Confession Of God’s Promises Without Considering God’s Precepts. Every Christian of today, including the fake, has in memory at least 3 promises of God. Bible verses of God’s promises are the most popular verses - like 3 John verse 2, Philippians 4: 13 and 19. But the funny thing is that many Christians who are good at confessing the good promises of God barely consider the precepts and commands of God. That is the reason Bible verses like Romans 12:1, 1 John 3:8, and Hebrews 9:27 may not be popular with such Christians and their churches. If you are one of the Christians who are more of confessing God’s promises without taking more time to consider and live according to the precepts of God, then you are holding to a fake faith which you urgently need to drop now for a better one.

“Behold, I long for Your precepts; Revive me in Your righteousness.” Psalm 119:40

(iv) Earthly First. Christians with fake faith seek first earthly stuffs more than heavenly things; they are more concerned about their physical wellbeing than their spiritual wellbeing. How will you know this? In your personal prayer, if you pray first or mostly on earthly things like blessings, provision, prosperity, protection, health, etc. in your prayer time than purification and sanctification of your soul, righteousness of God, grace and strength of God to be more like Jesus and to do the work of evangelism, then you are a fake Christian. In your preaching and pursuit this year, if they are primarily on such earthly things, then you are having a beautiful fake faith as a Christian or as a Christian minister.

1 Timothy 6:11, “But you, O man of God, flee these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, gentleness.”

LIVING BY FAITH IN JESUS
There is no better life you can live in this world apart from living by faith. You can live luxurious life, you can live in mansion, you can live in wealth, you can live in beautiful place, but if you are not living by faith in Jesus Christ, you are miserable. Living by faith in Jesus is living with certainty and confidence: with certainty of where you are coming from, where you are and where you heading to; with confidence of who is in control of your life and what He has for you. Living by faith removes confusion, fear and unrest mind. Living by faith is ensued with peace of life and unspeakable joy of the Lord.

There is only one group of people who can genuinely and successfully live by faith in Jesus, and God wants you to be part of this group, because every other groups are disqualified. Many people desire to live by faith, many claim to live by faith, but only one group actually lives by faith. Here is the group - Romans 1:17, “For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.”

THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH
Only the just shall live by faith! Only the just are actually and genuinely living by faith! The Bible does not say, “People shall live by faith” It does not say, “Sinner shall live by faith”. How can you claim to live by faith when you are not just or how can you live by faith if you are not just? IMPOSSIBLE!

This is a divine DISCLAMER from God, that only the just are living by His faith, which He recognize, other claimers are on their own. Sinning sinners claiming to live by faith is fake claim, backsliding Christian claiming to be living by faith is fake. Before you can live by faith, you need to be among the just. Who are the just?

THE JUST!
“But the just shall live by his faith.” Habakkuk 2:4; Romans 1:17; Galatians 3:11; Hebrews 10:38

Another words for “The just” is the righteous, the redeemed, the regenerated. There no shortcut or other means by which you can live by faith except by becoming among the just.

Do you notice that the Bible does not say, “Faith will make you just” but it says “the just shall live by faith” Many preachers of today and tuning it upside down by saying if you have faith you will become justified in Christ even when you continue in unjustified lifestyle. No, this is fake! You can’t continue living in unjustified lifestyle, which is sinful life, and claim to be just at the same time. You cannot continue in sin and live by faith at the same time.

To become a just person, you need to be justified by Jesus Christ when you repent from your sins, confess and forsake them.

SALVATION: We are saved by faith in Jesus Christ to live a faithful life, not to continue in unfaithfulness. Those who claim salvation in Christ by faith and continue in sin at the same time are living in spiritual confusion and contradiction.

You need to get the following clear:

We are saved by GRACE. “For by grace you have been saved.” Ephesians 2:8

We are saved through FAITH. “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God” Ephesians 2:8

We are saved for good work, RIGHTEOUS WALKING. “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:10

If you know the means by which and through which you are saved, but you don’t know for what purpose you are saved, you will miss everything. That is the problem with preachers who preach once saved is always saved, who say you can continue in sin and still claim faith, and the same problem with Christians who claim they are saved while they continue in worldly lifestyles.

Beloved, do you care for genuine salvation that gives victory over sin? Do you want to live by faith and the rest of your life till you see the Blessed Jesus? Then you need to be justified in Jesus Christ.

Christianity EtcHalf Truth Gospel by FreshGreen(op): 8:44am On Feb 28, 2015
THE HALF TRUTH OF ERRONEOUS GOSPEL
2 Timothy 3:5, "having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!"

Many Christians, preachers and churches of today are filled with the heresy of half-truth. Everybody likes truth, everyone want to be associated with truth, and so Satan is deceiving many with half-truth in the name of Truth. If we claim to know the truth of the Word of God, do we know half-truth or the whole truth? If we claim to be saying the truth, are we saying the whole truth or half-truth? Half-truth is more dangerous than no truth at all, but Satan is fooling many Christians and ministers of the church today. They have the elements of truth, but denying the power thereof. Read 2 Timothy 3:5

Half-truth is heresy, and everyone living in half-truth is living an erroneous life. That is the gospel many are carrying about today. Heresy means overemphasizing a part of truth and leaving the other part behind. Many and modern church of today are perfect illustration of heresy, they are overemphasizing some part of the scriptures that sooth them and leaving other parts behind. That is half-truth of heresy. Though they claim what they are preaching is from the Bible, they quote the Bible to back what they preach, but they are preaching heresy – uncompleted truth.

They emphasize on “NO CONDEMNATION” but they ignore the message of “NO CONTINUITY IN SIN” and many Christians are falling victim of this permissive heresy.

The complete truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ was demonstrated in John 8:11, when Jesus met the harlot woman and told her, “Neither do I condemn you, go and sin no more” No condemnation of sinner, and no continuity of sin after meeting with Jesus. But the heresy of today will emphasize only on “no condemnation” they claim “God does not condemn us, God is merciful and loving, He does not condemn sinners” Yes that is true, but what about the later part of “go and sin no more” They ignore that, and that makes many to fall into heresy.

It is important for us to examine our lives, as Christians, are we part of the Christians living in or preaching half-truth of heresy in this end time? The modern church of today is perverted by Satan to give people false hope, to give people half-truth, to make Christians overemphasize sweet part of the scripture and omit sacrificing part; to make Christians emphasize on promises of the Bible and ignore purity of the Bible, to make many focus on prosperity of this passing world and forget the preparation for the coming of the new and everlasting world. Are you among the deceived Christians of half-truth of heresy or you are among the deceivers of heresy?

Half-truth of confession without repentance will lead to no genuine salvation. We hear message of salvation of today in many churches, from many preachers as “confess and be saved”. That people should just come, come and come, then, “ If you want to give your life to Jesus Christ and begin to enjoy the blessings, prosperity, deliverance and healing, all you need to do is to confess, say it after me ‘Jesus , I have come to you, I confess you as my Savior’ Now you are saved.” This process of confession without repentance will NEVER bring genuine salvation.

That is the reason you hear funny things happening among them, because they don’t have genuine experience of salvation, that is the reason such Christians will continue in sin even after they have been ordained ministers, because the foundation is false and faulty.

How can you ask somebody to confess his sin without first telling him to repent? How can you say somebody is saved when the person does not understand what repentance is all about? Confession of sin without first repentance is half-truth that leads to heresy and hell.

Because the preachers who preach confession of sin without repentance do not understand genuine salvation themselves or they want multitude. Christians whose foundation is based on confessions of sin without genuine repentance will always find themselves committing the sins they have confessed. Repentance will make somebody to count the cost before coming to Christ, that you must not only realize your sin, but you must make up your mind to forsake them, that you have the cross of self-denying to bear after you come to Christ, that Christian life is not about prosperity, prophesying but righteousness, truth and joy in the Holy Spirit.

The half-truth of confession without repentance, of coming to Christ and continuing in sin at the same time is heresy of this end time, which every Christian who wants to make rapture must watch against. Confession of sins alone will not bring the mercy of God, but only those who repent, confess and forsake the sin they confess will experience unlimited mercy. Proverbs 28:13.

The Gracious Truth
John 1:14, “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.”

The true Gospel of the Bible is full of grace and truth. The grace of God through Jesus Christ is no condemnation, that is the grace of the Bible – God’s favour, God’s power to live above sin and victorious over Satan. And the truth of the Gospel is to go and sin no more after we meet Jesus Christ.

Are you living your life in the light of the truth of the Gospel or half-truth of heresy? We must repent before it is too late and rededicate ourselves to the whole truth of our Lord Jesus Christ. Genuine salvation of the Gospel is to repent, confess, forsake the confessed sins and follow Jesus in new life. Read 2 Corinthians 5:17

PERSONAL EXAMINATION- Please reflect on this teaching and pray to recommit your life to Jesus Christ, He is waiting for you.

Christianity EtcTrue Gospel Of The Bible by FreshGreen(op): 4:52pm On Feb 27, 2015
THE TRUE GOSPEL OF THE BIBLE
Note: You must read every Bible reference in this teaching from your own Bible.

Bible verse: Mathew 4:17 “From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

Jesus Christ came into this world with the greatest blessing for mankind, which is the Gospel! it is a great good news, there had been no such news on earth before Jesus Christ was born into this world, since then no news is as good as the Gospel till He will come back in His second coming. This good news is available for all mankind irrespective of their nation, colour, background or how sinful and terrible their lives have been. This is the greatest good news any man can have in his life

From the beginning of the earthly ministry of Jesus, He presented the Gospel in a clear and simple words and way in Matthew 4:17 “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” Jesus Christ said, “repent” but something has happened before He declared, “repent” He said, “for the kingdom of heaven is at hand” On the other way, we can read it as “Because the kingdom of Heaven is at hand, we must repent.” What caused Jesus to call us to repentance because the kingdom of heaven is at hand. This is the first preaching of Jesus Christ on earth.

So the Gospel contains two features: One, the kingdom of HEAVEN is at hand, and Two: Repent.

The Kingdom of God is at Hand – meaning the FREE AVAILABILITY of the kingdom of heaven to everyone who cares to enter through the only Way – Jesus Christ.

Jesus brought the Kingdom of God to all human being at their very disposal. Since the fall of Adam, there had being demarcation between God and man, that humanity lost the free access to fellowship with God. Human being trying to seek and serve God by human power will avail to nothing. There is no way any religion can gain us access to God.

But Jesus Christ came down from heaven to restore the lost access to God, He did not only bring it to the children of Israel alone, but to all mankind, that the kingdom of God is now at your disposal, God came in form of a man to restore us back to Him - that is what Gospel is all about, restoring us back to God freely. Now the kingdom of God is now available to everyone at their fingertips, it is at hand- freely available!

It does not matter where you come from, it does not matter where you were born or which religion you were born into; it does not matter rituals or things you have dedicated yourself into or the covenant you have made with the devil; it does not matter how terrible or sinful you are, the salvation of Jesus Christ is made available to you right where you are and how you are. Read Titus 2:11. You don’t need to find a temple or go to Jerusalem before you meet God, you don’t need a priest, pastor or prophet to help you pray to God, He is at hand – available where you are. All we need to do is to talk to Jesus Christ who is at hand – present everywhere – from our hearts and tell Him we want to accept the salvation He has brought to us. This is the first point of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, its availability to all, irrespective of who we are or where we are or what we have done – Gospel for all!

The second part of the Gospel is REPENTANCE.
Repent! Jesus Christ said, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” The kingdom of God has been made available to us freely without discrimination, by Jesus Christ, and then He is demanding us to do our part by responding through repentance. Repentance is the only acceptable way of responding to the free Gift of salvation of Jesus Christ. Without repentance, there can never be genuine salvation in Jesus Christ. To repent is to realize our sinful life, to be ready to let go of the sinful life and start a new life in Jesus Christ. It involves being sorrowful of the past and being sincere with our present condition as sinner and unworthy, and to be ready to surrender our onward living to Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.

Now, do you know why many who claim to be Christians are not genuinely saved, the reason why people keep confessing their sins and yet keep committing the sins? You know why people keep confessing and answering several altar calls, yet they are not sure of their salvation? The reason why people pray the prayer of salvation and yet get back to old sinful life in few hours later? It is because they did not repent, they only confess and claimed. You cannot come into the kingdom of God with your old ways of living simply by confessing.

It is not just to be sorry for our sins, but we must be ready to forsake them and determined to start a new life in Jesus Christ. Confessing sins without genuine repentance of realization of our sins and readiness to forsake them will only lead to a sorry case – keep confessing and keep committing. We must first repent before we confess our sins. The first thing Jesus Christ asked us to do was to repent, thereafter confess. Confession of sins 100 times without genuine repentance will never result into salvation.
It may seem impossible to start a new life in Jesus, but it is possible by God’s grace, all we need is to repent and surrender all to Jesus. We do not live righteous life by our power, but by the empowerment of God’s grace. Please read Titus 2:11-12.

This is the complete message of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ – salvation is available to all men and women, and repentance is the means to receive the salvation. God does not condemn us with our sins, but He is calling us to Himself with all our sins and unrighteousness, and when we come, we come through the door of repentance for transformation, to realize the danger of living in sin and to forsake the sin so that we don’t continue in same sinful life. We don’t need to be righteous before we come to God, Jesus did not come to call the righteous, but the sinner, He does not condemn sinners. Salvation is a free gift of God to all. So He does not condemn us in our sin, but He does not want us to continue in sin after we come to Him. Jesus came to the world to save us from sins, which is what is called salvation, to be saved from sins and serve God in righteousness. Read Luke 1:74, 75.

The truth of the Gospel of the Bible is:
1. God has made salvation available to all men and women through Jesus Christ. – John 3:16

2. God does not condemn sinner from coming unto Him, irrespective of their past and present. Matthew 11:28.

3. God calls all men to repentance from sin so we do not continue in sinful life. Acts 3:19.

4. God does not condone sin after we have come to Him. Romans 6:1-2.

So the summary of Gospel of Jesus Christ is NO CONDEMNATION and NO CONTINUITY IN SIN. If we truly come to Jesus Christ through genuine repentance and we confess our sins, we must strive by watchfulness and prayerfulness not to continue in sin again. Genuine repentance brings about grace of God, and we cannot continue in that grace and in sin at the same time.
