Yes , kindly check my next letter
paxonel:
Everything you said about the mansion that it is a spiritual place where God lives in us, is absolutely correct.
But...
do you have any scripture to show that we are not fully in heaven according to all the scriptures in your op?
Christianity EtcHarpazo, Caught Up In His Finished Work by iamteegee(op): 10:35pm On Aug 13, 2025
Harpazo ,Caught Up in His Finished Work

Breaking the Mansion Myth

Growing up, I heard many songs and sermons describing heaven as a vast estate with glittering mansions. Some even said the more souls you win, the bigger and more beautiful your mansion will be. Others claimed they saw “abandoned and uncompleted mansions” in heaven in visions.

But in John 14:2,3, Jesus wasn’t talking about earthly-style houses. He said:

“In my Father’s house are many dwelling places.”
In Greek, the word is monai “abiding places.” It’s not bricks and roofs. It’s a position and a reality of union with God.

Before the cross, no man had ever entered the place where God dwells (John 1:18). Even Elijah and Enoch, who did not experience death, were not in the Father’s presence, Jesus said, “No one has seen the Father except the One who came from Him.” They were in paradise with the patriarchs in hades, waiting for the Messiah.

Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. Until His death and resurrection, the dwelling place He spoke of was not yet accessible to man. But when He rose, the temple veil tore in two (Hebrews 10:19,20), giving all believers access into the holiest place. Now, we are seated with Christ in heavenly places spiritually.

Why Harpazo?

The Thessalonian church was young, persecuted, and grieving. Many believers had been killed, and they feared that those who died had missed out on what Jesus would bring at His return.

Paul comforts them:

“The Lord Himself will descend with a shout… and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive… will be caught up together with them…” (1 Thessalonians 4:16,17)

The phrase caught up is harpazo in Greek , to snatch suddenly, to seize away. This is not a slow climb up a ladder to heaven. It’s a sudden transformation, in the twinkling of an eye.

Misconceptions About the Rapture

Some portray the rapture as a ladder you must climb with your good works. Others imagine a “rapture gate” where angels weigh your deeds to decide if you enter. That’s not the gospel , that’s salvation by self-effort.

There will be rewards in heaven, but rewards are not the key to heaven. Heaven is the starting point of eternal life the moment we believed in Jesus while on earth (John 3:16) . Jesus said no one can harpazo us from His hand (John 10:28).

Another false idea is the “last-minute confession” panic , where lightning or heavy rain makes people rush to confess their sins so they won’t miss the rapture. But our security is not in sudden self-cleansing , it’s in Christ’s finished work.

Our New House

On earth, we build houses for shelter, safety, privacy, and comfort. But when we are harpazo-ed, we will receive a new “house” not made of walls and roofs, but an immortal body.

2 Corinthians 5:1-5 says we will be clothed with this new dwelling , a body free from death, sickness, shame, and weakness. This is the same transformation Jesus experienced when He rose from the dead , the firstborn among many brethren.

In the fullness of that day:

God will be our light , no sun or moon needed.

There will be no sickness, death, or thieves.

We will see God and enjoy unhindered fellowship forever.

The Hope of Our Calling

John 14:2–3 is more than a promise of location , it’s the reality of our position in Christ now and the fullness we will experience then. It’s both our present identity (our spirit joined with God) and our future glory (our immortal body).

When the trumpet sounds, the harpazo will be the final unveiling , spirit, soul, and body in perfect union with Him.

The Only Way:
This hope is only for those who believe in Jesus His death, burial, and resurrection. It’s not about self-effort, but resting in His finished work. Accept Him as Lord, believe in His name, and be filled with His Spirit.

Heaven is not your last reward , it’s the starting point of your eternal journey with God.

It's not only the Pharisees that's expecting God's Kingdom to be restored back to Israel that's the expectation of all faithful servants of God:

David said:


The Lord says to my lord: “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.” The Lord will extend your mighty scepter from Zion, saying, “Rule in the midst of your enemies!” ‭Psalms 110:1-2 NIV‬

Isaiah said:


For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the greatness of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David’s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the Lord Almighty will accomplish this. Lord ‭Isaiah 9:6-7 NIV‬


Daniel said:


“In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever." ‭Daniel 2:44 NIV‬


So Jesus' faithful disciples asked him:


Then they gathered around him and asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?” ‭Acts 1:6 NIV‬


It's the theme of the Bible as proclaimed by John the baptist {Matthew 3:2} and Jesus of Nazareth {Matthew 4:17} and what he commanded us to preach about! Matthew 10:7

So it's not some imaginary thing in minds of people rather God's Kingdom is a real government that's coming to solve all the problems facing mankind that's why Jesus said we should continue praying for God's Kingdom to come! Matthew 6:10

All what you posted still points to what men perceived to be the kingdom of God and what Jesus was saying to the pharisees, Jesus is the truth and the image and true nature of the invincible God, we humans have our own mindset about God's kingdom that Jesus came to establish, like I said however our lord is coming and we will all be caught up to Him and there it won't just be a spiritual experience but a full body (new body, new house not built by humans hands or how we hm think houses should be but a new body and we will see Him in that reality

Let's look at luke17:21 Jesus was talking to the pharisees that were expecting a physical kingdom of God that will destroy and set them free from their colonial masters but Jesus said that the kingdom of God is already within, signifying that He in their midst is the rule of the kingdom of God, however Jesus lives in in every believer which is the kingdom of God within us, Jesus is the way however to making all this a reality and by believing in Him we have passed from the realm of death to Life. Jesus is coming and we are ready because we are already in Him

MaxInDHouse:
The highlighted is a misconception Jesus never said the kingdom of God dwells in people because it's a real government that's coming to destroy all human governments {Daniel 2:44} so what Jesus meant in that verse is that the kingdom of God is in the midst of those who were listening to him that day because he is the way to get there! John 14:6
Christianity EtcRe: In My Father's House, Are Many Mansions, What Does It Mean? by iamteegee(op): 2:51pm On Aug 13, 2025
We are saying the same thing brother, Christ has prepared us and brought us humans into the household of God, spiritually now it has been sealed however Jesus is coming to finally take us all believers into the kingdom of God, the kingdom of God spiritually dwells in us but we are are gonna be caught up and we believers will be in the heaven with a new body where mortality will be swallowed by immortality. He has prepared us spiritually which is the first step of been born again and then a new house which is the new body as we get to that new reality. But this is not a real estate mansion but a new body as we have new Spirit, the limited number you mentioned in rev14:1 is not the total number of the people , it is a symbol of the first fruits presented to God because if you read revelation he talked about a number of people that he could not count

MaxInDHouse:
Please don't be confused about this things heaven is a real place where Jesus is taking his corulers not all worshipers of God that's why he said during his sermon on the mountain:

To his prospective corulers whose number is limited: Revelations 14:1


“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." ‭Matthew 5:3 NIV‬

To his countless subjects: Revelations 7:9


"Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth." ‭Matthew 5:5 NIV‬



God never designed heaven (spiritual realm) for creatures having fresh and blood {1Corinthans 15:50} so the place was made only for God and his spirit sons (angels) it's planet earth that God made for fleshy creatures {Psalms 115:16} that's why He puts man in charge of this planet! Genesis 1:26-28

So those going to heaven with Jesus must be transformed into spirit beings {Luke 20:34-36 compare to 1Thessalonians 4:16-17} Jesus begged his father for this privilege that's why he said it has not been so in the beginning but since his father has granted his request he has to return home in order to PREPARE dwelling places for his prospective corulers in heaven! John 14:1-3

May you have peace!
Christianity EtcRe: In My Father's House, Are Many Mansions, What Does It Mean? by iamteegee(op): 1:56pm On Aug 13, 2025
Okay what is the essence of salvation is a new Life which is the eternal life of God, eph2:6 says we are in the heaven seated in Christ, we experience that spiritual truth, however we will experience that full reality by the coming of Jesus, spiritually now we are consecrated set apart but He said He would come to take us to where He is is both spiritual reality and soon our new body physical reality so we can connect it to 1thess that shows us about His coming, the dead in Christ will be caught up and we alive would be but if you read further the bible made us to know that we will have a new body, incorruptible body with our already regenerated Spirit where God dwells in, by then it will no longer be a spiritual reality but our full reality . 1thess is connected to john14 but that mansions expression of a physical real estate is what' have been misunderstood,
MaxInDHouse:
The highlighted is where i will like you to expatiate more because Jesus said in that Bible book of John:


“Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God ; believe also in me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.” ‭John 14:1-4 NIV‬


Paul said:


For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. 1Thessalonians 4:16-17 NIV‬

Please can you correlate the highlighted in blue so we can fully understand what you are saying?

Thanks in advance!

Beautiful question! Is the Lord Jesus coming? Yes! But from the earlier write up, by Jesus sacrifice, death, resurrection He has given us the opportunity to abide in God and God abide in us forever, for example Jesus was on earth before after He ascended , He has been seated at the throne bodily, the church in thesalonia was a young church facing persecution acts17 many were killed so they needed to ask the fate of the dead and Paul wrote to them that the dead in Christ will rise and meet Jesus and we alive too will meet Him, are we in heaven now? Yes but it's not yet full because we are still on earth but departure from this earth brings you into full dwelling where God is forever but all made possible because Jesus went to prepare the place , we are the place He prepared that can now stay forever in a divine atmosphere


MaxInDHouse:
Regarding what Jesus said in the Bible book of John 14:1-3 Paul told born again Christians in Thessalonica:


For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. ‭1Thessalonians 4:16-17 NIV‬

Please what is Paul saying here?
Christianity EtcIn My Father's House, Are Many Mansions, What Does It Mean? by iamteegee(op): 9:34pm On Aug 12, 2025
IN MY FATHER'S HOUSE, ARE MANY MANSIONS, WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

I grew up listening to gospel songs that said, “The houses on earth are beautiful, but my house in heaven is even more beautiful.” I also heard preachers say that the more souls you bring into the kingdom, the finer your heavenly mansion will be. Some even claimed to have visions of heaven where they saw many “abandoned mansions.”, while others say they saw their mansion in heaven, some said the reason Jesus hasn't returned yet because He is still building the Mansions.

But how true is this? Let’s look at John 14 and see what “mansion” truly means.

Before chapter 14, Jesus had been telling His disciples about His coming death and how He would be going away. Then He said in John 14:2:

“In my Father’s house are many mansions… I go to prepare a place for you.”

The problem here is the word “mansion.” You can’t really blame King James because in old English, “mansion” didn’t mean a luxurious palace. It meant a dwelling place or place to stay. It’s just like if I wrote in my article, “My grandma kicked the bucket.” A hundred years later, someone might think she literally kicked a bucket, when my actual meaning was that she died.

Jesus’ intent here was not to describe physical real estate in heaven. He was revealing why God became flesh(Jesus) to bring salvation and eternal life so that man could permanently dwell in God’s presence. No one had ever done that before.

That’s why He told them He would destroy the temple and raise it in three days. When He died, the temple veil tore, giving all believers access into the holiest place.

So in John 14, “In my Father’s house are many dwelling places” simply means that in God’s household there is room for all who believe. Jesus was saying, “I will prepare that place.” And how did He prepare it?

By His blood and finished work:

Hebrews 10:19,20 His death and resurrection gave us access into God’s presence.

Hebrews 10:10,14 We have been cleansed and perfected once for all.

Now, we are worthy to be God’s permanent dwelling place. It’s not a physical building, it’s a spiritual reality, a position and identity.

Ephesians 2:6 We are seated in heavenly places in Christ.

God lives in us, and we live in Him.

The Greek word in John 14 for “mansion” (monē) simply means a dwelling or abode. And that’s exactly what we have become: the house of God, prepared by Jesus through His finished work because He is the way, the truth, and the life.

To unbelievers:
Jesus said, “If you believe my word, My Father and I will make our home in you.” (John 14:23) This word has already been fulfilled. Believe and you will be saved because He loves you.

Finally:
Salvation is beautiful. Thank You, Jesus because without You, our works, morals, goodness, or law-keeping would never have been enough for God to permanently dwell in us. But now, we are the household of a holy God.

It's not about real estate in heaven, but God dwelling in us all, so we are always in His presence, we never leave the holiest of holies.

Christianity EtcLiving In The Fullness Of God's Power by iamteegee(op): 11:23am On Aug 12, 2025
Living in the Fullness of God’s Power

The book of Ephesians was written by Paul to the church in Ephesus , a Gentile city once known for idol worship, magic, and demonic practices. Then the gospel came, and some believed. Paul wrote this epistle to reveal to them the mysteries of the gospel and the power of God now at work in every believer. His prayer was that they would not just know this truth but walk in it , living daily in the fullness of God within.

The same challenge exists today. Many Christians agree that God is powerful, but few truly live, breathe, and walk in that reality. When faced with trouble, we often lose confidence and doubt the power at work in us.

I remember a family plagued by fear because of a series of “prophecies” of death spoken over them. In fear, they ran from mountain to valley , offering sacrifices, appeasing spirits, and seeking protection from idols. I told them the solution was not in rituals but in salvation , in knowing God.

But one family member replied, “There’s a limit to what Jesus or the church can do. If you want quick protection, you must go to the traditional ways.” Sadly, this is common. Some believers, when faced with urgent needs, secretly visit native doctors, sangomas, mediums , mystics, temples etc for charms, “blessing soaps,” talisman , bathing in the river and protection, then return to church to testify as though it was God who did it.

In that same family, one woman was “next in line” to die according to the prophecy. They told her to “give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar” , meaning she should buy the sacrificial items to appease the dead. She came to me, and I told her not to try it, that she would not die. I taught her about Christ, and she believed. She closed her ears to the threats and pleas of relatives. Today, she is alive , while those who kept running from place to place all passed away.

This is why Paul prayed in Ephesians that believers would understand the mystery and power of God. The same power is at work in us today. Yet some still complain, “Since I became a believer, my life got worse. Unbelievers use spiritual items and get results, but I don’t.” This makes it seem like there’s more power in idols than in the fullness of God but that’s a lie!.

Paul couldn’t relate to such thinking because he understood the exousia (authority), dunamis (miracle-working power), ischus (strength), and energeo (divine operation) that God had given him , the same power already at work in every believer. As we fellowship with the Holy Spirit, this power manifests, and the supernatural becomes normal, the power is in us already and does not fall on us from heaven or anywhere.

Ephesians 3:20 says God is able to do “exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think, according to the power at work in us.” Notice Paul says “ask” before “think.” Why? Because when you think first, you may talk yourself out of faith. Israel saw Goliath and thought, This is impossible. But David spoke first , his words aligned with the understanding in his heart.

God operates this way with us. He gives His word first, then teaches us to imagine it. When He called Abraham, He spoke the promise first, then told him to count the stars , creating a picture in his heart. And God still went beyond Abraham’s imagination: today his children (believers) are in every nation.

So keep fellowshipping with your Father. Keep declaring His word. Be expectant. Be confident. The same power that parted the Red Sea, caused a virgin to conceive, brought water from a rock, and created the universe is in you. Imagine it. Visualize it. Enjoy His presence. And watch as He does beyond what you ask or imagine by the power at work in you.

Finally Siblings
Let not just know the truth, let us walk in this truth as we live by the truth. The truth is our reality. Conscious truth!

To the unbelievers
Jesus loves you, He has died and resurrected so you can believe this and have the fullness of God in you by just accepting Him as your Lord and savior and ask that He fills you with His Spirit .

Christianity EtcDon’t Be Deceived By Cultural Tradition by iamteegee(op): 9:10pm On Aug 08, 2025
Don’t Be Deceived by Cultural Tradition

"See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ." Colossians 2:8

I grew up hearing certain statements that seemed spiritual but were deeply rooted in tradition and emotion not truth. Phrases like:

“If a woman prays naked against someone, that person’s life is finished.”

“When a woman cries, God hears her prayers faster.”

“A mother’s prayer is the most powerful because she carried you in the womb.”

All of these sound dramatic, but they are not rooted in Scripture. They are deceptive philosophies, traditions handed down through culture, not through Christ. The truth is no woman’s prayer is more special than a man's just as no man’s prayer is more special than a woman’s. In Christ, there is no gender hierarchy in prayer.

“There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” Galatians 3:28

Some women have used these ideas to manipulate or guilt their children or spouses. But we must remember that prayer is not about gender or emotion, it is about faith in the finished work of Christ.

Now, it seems like women’s prayers are more powerful. Why? Because in many settings, more women attend church and engage in spiritual activities than men, especially older men. Many men have abandoned their spiritual roles, leaving women to carry the burden of intercession for the home and children.

Many men are even searching for “prayer warrior” women to marry, rather than becoming men of prayer themselves. But here’s what we must realize, Women of the older generation were taught that victory is in prayer not in Christ. They were taught more about the devil than about the goodness and power of God. They fasted and cried, not because they fully understood their authority in Christ, but because they were dealing with poor governance, lack of opportunity, bad marriages, and deep emotional wounds.

So, they went to church and sought God, not out of rest, but out of desperation.

But the Gospel gives us a different posture. The believer whether male or female is not praying from defeat but from victory. You’re not praying to get closer to God; you’re praying because you are already united with Him in Christ.

“The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.” James 5:16
(And righteousness is a gift we receive in Christ, not something we earn.)

Let’s retrain our minds

It’s not your shouting that makes your prayer powerful.

It’s not your posture.

It’s not your gender.

It’s not your emotions.

It is Christ that makes your prayer powerful. A believer's authority in prayer comes from being righteous in Him.

So brothers stop looking for a prayer warrior wife. Be a prayerful man.
Sisters don’t feel spiritually superior. Just enjoy Jesus.

Let prayer be sweet fellowship with the Holy Spirit. Yes, we make decrees. Yes, we speak to mountains. Yes, we pray concerning issues. But don’t lose the heart of prayer it is communion, not war competition.

In Christ, men and women are equal. In Christ, our prayers are powerful.

Christianity EtcBreak The Cycle: The Responsibility To Heal by iamteegee(op): 3:08pm On Aug 08, 2025
Break the Cycle: The Responsibility to Heal

There is a thin line but a real one between how a child is shaped by environment, and how that shaping becomes identity.
Our world recycles pain through how we were raised.
Many are living with unhealed wounds of the past bitterness, anger, fear and those wounds are brought into relationships, marriages, workplaces, fun places, and eventually into parenting.

We’ve seen this play out again and again:

Friends who struggle with trust because of what they saw their parents do.

Men who beat their wives because that’s what was modeled to them.

Women who believe love must come with violence, because pain was packaged as affection in their upbringing.

I once dated someone who believed a real man had to beat her.
She said, "If a man doesn’t hit me, he isn’t strong."
I had to end that relationship before it turned me into someone I’m not.

That was a wake-up call:
People are shaped by trauma they never asked for and worse, they sometimes glorify it.

But here’s the truth:
The circle and blame game ends with us.

We must take responsibility. That’s the only way healing and transformation can begin.
The only way out is through renewing our minds with the Word of God and allowing the Holy Spirit to reprogram what the world and often our families taught us wrong.

“Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.” John 15:3

You are not stronger than the information you constantly feed yourself with.
You’re either being cleansed by truth, or polluted by toxicity, which is why we need to tell our parents to stop telling us, avoid places where you are fed those toxic words.

It’s time to stop letting the older generation feed us recycled regret, tales of witches, tales of darkness, failure, and pain.
It’s time to stop glorifying their wounds as wisdom.
It’s time to guard our ears and our hearts.

Even if your parents meant well,
pain is not a legacy worth inheriting.

You may think you’re different , more exposed, more educated, more spiritually aware.
But if you’re not actively unlearning and renewing your mind,
you are just a ticking time bomb, you might have realized you are already behaving like them.

What’s in you will eventually explode especially under pressure.

We must not carry this into the next generation.
Let the healing start with you.

Don’t feed your children with stories of your broken marriage, or how kingdom of darkness operates.

Don’t destroy their perception of their other parent.

Don’t burden them with emotional baggage that isn’t theirs to carry.

Even if the marriage ends in divorce , protect their hearts.
Let them see the good side of the one who helped bring them into the world.

If we are to make the world a better place,
it won’t be through blame
It will be through responsibility, healing, and truth.

It ends with us.

To the believers, the word and the Holy Spirit helps us, only if you allow it. You are not your parents or anyone, you are you in Christ!

To the unbelievers, sometimes it can be hard to really let go and be refreshed and you must have tried but none working, open your heart to Jesus, confess Him as Lord and Saviour, ask Him to fill you with the Spirit and grow by Him.

Christianity EtcWalking In The Spirit, Been Conscious Of The Spirit by iamteegee(op): 10:42pm On Aug 07, 2025
WALKING IN THE SPIRIT, BEEN CONSCIOUS OF THE SPIRIT

The Divine Interruption

I came prepared with a different message in today's Katalambano, but while praying in the Spirit with the people, the Holy Spirit shifted my direction to consciousness , I asked Him why? For Him to give me more, and He opened my eyes to see the state of the hearts and minds of the people , filled with darkness, though they are children of light.

"This isn't supposed to be. How can we be in the light and still walk in darkness?"

I saw in the Spirit what many believers silently go through:

Disappointments

Broken hearts

Hunger and lack

Depression

Anger and frustration

Suicidal thoughts

Even cursing God

These are alien thoughts , foreign to our new life in Christ, these thoughts are not part of our new configuration. We are born of the Spirit John 3:6 says, ‘That which is born of flesh is flesh, and that which is born of Spirit is Spirit.

We live in a fallen world, yes, but we are no longer defined by it.
Yet, the mind, when left unchecked, becomes hostile to God (Romans 8:7) and gives room for darkness to thrive.

When those thoughts are not cast down or replaced, they grow:

Confusion turns into misdirection

Frustration turns to destructive choices

Depression turns to isolation and even suicide

People act outside of character , some fall into regrettable actions, violence, or addiction

"The person becomes frustrated and may commit suicide, or do things they will later regret."

Walking in the Spirit , How?

The Lover’s Consciousness

It is just like being in love , when you're conscious of someone you love, you want to hear from them, be near them, and please them.
Likewise, when we are conscious of the Holy Spirit, we:

Want to fellowship

Stay aware of His presence

Respond to Him above all else

That’s how we begin to walk in the Spirit.

Power of Praying in the Spirit

Instead of worrying, why not just begin to pray in the Spirit, even without the solution showing up immediately, your atmosphere shifts.

Joy, worship, and peace begin to rise.

You become calm even in the middle of a storm.

Sometimes, direction comes mid prayer , sometimes afterward , but you are strengthened as you pray in the Spirit, you bring out things needed in time of need out of your Spirit.

I remember when I was to preach to a large crowd, and my heart was beating fast.

I started praying in the Spirit

Then i heard: “Faithful is He that has called you, and He will do it.”

Immediately, fear disappeared, boldness came, and i preached with confidence.

Praying in tongues builds you up Jude 1:20
It releases the strength in your spirit to overcome fear, darkness, and weakness.

The Word Brings Light (Another way we walk in the Spirit)

"Filling our heart with the Word brings light into our troubled heart, and darkness disappears."

Even after entering the kingdom of light, we must train our minds to align with that light through the Word.

Iwo Road Encounter

I had a vision where a loud voice told you: “Go to Iwo Road.”

I obeyed thinking, “Maybe someone will give me a car or cash.” lol

But as i got there, walking, praying in the Spirit and meditating on Isaiah 30:21 ("You will hear a voice behind you..."wink, I heard the Spirit say:

“You came here to preach.”

Then, I had an open vision of a place.

I went and saw some men cultists, part-time robbers.

Instead of fear, I engaged them with boldness. I shared my past:

My street life

Almost becoming a cultist

Using charms

A junkie

They shared their own.

I told one of them not to go out with the people he goes out with for what they do normally, that he won't survive the outcome then he told me someone else told me that already but he's ready so I led them to Christ and got them filled with the Spirit.

Months later, he called:
“I’ve left Iwo Road. I’ve left the street. I don’t do hard drugs anymore. I almost died but I found mercy, I now enjoy fellowship with the Spirit.”

Why? Because I was led by the Spirit, and my mind was filled with the meditated Word and aligned with the Spirit.

Train Your Mind to Align

Like Joshua was told in Joshua 1:8 “This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth...”

Keep declaring the Word until your mind surrenders to it

Speak to your soul (Psalm 42:5)

Declare truth until your emotions catch up

The more you walk in the Spirit, the more steps you take out of the storm

"Each step by the Spirit takes you one step closer. Until one day, you’ll look back and realize the storm is over."

Finally Siblings

Be conscious of the Spirit.

Pray in the Spirit.

Fill your heart and mind with the Word.

Declare light until your soul believes it.

Let your mind align with the Spirit.
Walk in the Spirit.
Be conscious of the Spirit.
And you will not stumble.

Christianity EtcRe: Can Destinies Be Stolen, Buried, Or Changed? by iamteegee(op): 10:17am On Aug 07, 2025
I understand your point, destiny doesn't mean becoming a pastor, there are some that have known, have the zeal to be a painter, doctor, lawyer etc destiny is fufiled in all parts of the world

MaxInDHouse:
There are some teachings peculiar to the black race alone because our people are suffering due to mismanagement of public funds by their rulers so they believe in destiny but in western countries nobody can teach such things and gain attention as their government made life easy for citizens.
Ask a Nigerian who is living in America if he believes in such things as destiny he will laugh at you because where he lives everyone who is diligent at work is living fine!
Christianity EtcUnfulfilled Destiny: The Danger Of A Loosed Mouth by iamteegee(op): 7:13am On Aug 07, 2025
Unfulfilled Destiny: The Danger of a Loosed Mouth

One of the major causes of an unfulfilled destiny is a mouth that cannot be closed. Many of us have been victims of speaking too soon, sharing what God is still forming within us before it’s time. The consequences? Distraction, misdirection, and sometimes complete derailment from purpose.

Keeping your mouth shut until you understand what God is saying or leading you to do is a principle that cannot be overemphasized. Not because you're afraid of the devil or demons, but because wisdom demands it. Jesus said we should be wise as serpents and gentle as doves (Matthew 10:16). That is wisdom.

Why You Should Stay Quiet (for a Season)

1. To Avoid Distractions:
Sharing prematurely opens you up to unnecessary noise, people’s opinions, unsolicited advice, emotional projections, and expectations that God didn’t assign to you.

2. To Avoid Wrong Counsel:
Advice, even well-meaning, can derail you. Jesus told His disciples He would die, and Peter responded, “Not so, Lord!” (Matthew 16:22). It sounded caring, but Jesus immediately rebuked the spirit behind it, not Peter himself. Even friends, pastors , parents etc can speak against God’s plan unknowingly.

3. To Avoid Misguided Applause:
Jesus healed people and often instructed them not to tell anyone (Mark 1:43-45). Why? Because the time was not yet right. At another point, after feeding the 5,000, they wanted to make Him king, but He slipped away (John 6:15). Why? Because public opinion can tempt you into an assignment God didn’t give you.

The Young Prophet

God told a young prophet: “Don’t eat in this land.” He obeyed until an older prophet deceived him by saying, “I too heard from God.” I am an elder , a father in the faith, I know the frequency of the Spirit, I've been hearing from God before you were born, the young prophet listened, disobeyed God, and died prematurely (1 Kings 13). Many today are victims of similar spiritual manipulation, believing someone else hears God better on your own destiny than you do,

Too Many Voices, Not Enough Discernment

Many miss their destiny because they allow too many voices to speak over them, spiritual fathers, mothers, pastors, mentors, brothers, sisters etc , all giving different instructions, Interpretation , opinions Instead of clarity, it brings confusion. This is why building intimacy with the Holy Spirit is essential. He is your teacher (John 14:26), not just theirs.

The same Holy Spirit in them is the same in you. He doesn't give conflicting instructions. Don’t reduce yourself to running around for dream interpretations ( dream interpretations is one of the scams I will write about soon) or prophecy confirmations. God wants a relationship, not a religious relay race.

Real Life Example: The Pastor Who Refused to Bow

I once heard of a man who told his fiancée about God’s call on his life into ministry. She was not comfortable and reported it to her pastor. The pastor told the man, “You should just remain in your professional field. God did not call you.” But the man stood his ground and made his fiancée sign an agreement before marriage, declaring she accepted his call. Today, that man is a global voice in the body of Christ.

Imagine if he had listened to their opinions over God’s voice?

Final Words: Shut Up Until You’re Sure

Destinies are not unfulfilled because the devil is powerful. No! They are aborted because we speak prematurely and invite the wrong voices into our sacred space of destiny. Keep quiet until you understand what God is doing. If you must share, share only with like-minded, Spirit-led believers, not emotional enthusiasts or control-driven leaders.

Let the Holy Spirit be your compass. He is your greatest asset.

"There is a time to speak, and a time to keep silence."
Ecclesiastes 3:7

To the unbelievers

Accept Jesus into your life so the Spirit of God can be the guide of your life

Finally Siblings
Have intimacy with the Spirit of God, know Him for yourself, no pastor is more anointed than you are. Grow and fulfill your destines in Christ

Christianity EtcCan Destinies Be Stolen, Buried, Or Changed? by iamteegee(op): 9:03pm On Aug 05, 2025
Can Destinies Be Stolen, Buried, or Changed?

Many believers have been taught that their destinies can be stolen, buried, manipulated, or changed by the devil or demonic forces. This belief has led to fear, confusion, and endless deliverance sessions. But what does the Word of God say?

Bible Reality vs. Earthly Reality

Earthly realities are constantly changing—laws are amended, cultural norms shift, and technology evolves, reshaping the minds of generations. But Bible reality is eternal and unchanging:

John 1:1 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."

Matthew 24:35 "Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away."

God’s Word is absolute truth, the foundation upon which we must build our understanding, not human experiences or traditions.

Your Destiny Is Hidden in Christ

Colossians 3:3 "For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God."

Colossians 1:13 "He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love."

Your future, destiny, and purpose are not hanging in the open for demonic interception. They are secure in Christ, and Christ is in God. That is an impenetrable fortress.

So No!, the devil cannot see, steal, or rearrange your destiny. He is not omniscient. If he could, he would have stopped:

Jesus from going to the cross

Paul from becoming an apostle

You from becoming a new creation

But he failed and always will , because he doesn't know God's secret plans for those in Christ.

1 Corinthians 2:8 “None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.”

You Are a New Creation

2 Corinthians 5:17 "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come."

Your new life in Christ is not a continuation of the old. It's a brand new reality. The old man with a manipulable destiny is dead. The new man walks in the Spirit, light, and truth.

Ephesians 5:8 “For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light.”

Spiritual Realities: A Dream Illustration

I once had a metaphysical dream where i told a witch doctor to read my future, I wanted to see how powerful he is, He couldn’t. He even called for higher powers and still, nothing. Why?

Because:

Your life is hidden in Christ

You dwell in unapproachable light

Darkness cannot comprehend the light (John 1:5)

Witchcraft, IFA, palm readers, sorcerers, sangoma, and divination cannot access what is sealed in Christ.

So Why Do Some Believers Feel Delayed or Stolen From?

Simple: Belief in lies.
What you believe has power over you, even if it’s a lie.

Proverbs 23:7 "As a man thinks in his heart, so is he."

If a believer believes the devil is manipulating or monitoring their destiny, they’ll live under that fear, even though it’s not biblically true. That’s why Paul emphasized the renewing of the mind (Romans 12:2). The only power the devil has is deception.

To the Unbeliever: Your Life Is Still in Darkness

The reality is, if you're not in Christ, your life is still under the dominion of darkness.

John 10:10 "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy."

But Jesus came to destroy the works of darkness and give you eternal life, a new nature, and security in Him.

How to come into this new life:

1. Believe in Jesus as your Lord and Savior

2. Confess Him with your mouth

3. Ask Him to fill you with the Holy Spirit

That’s how you’re translated from darkness to light.

Finaly Siblings
Whose Report Will You Believe?

Isaiah 53:1 "Who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?"

Even Peter, a chosen disciple, once spoke out of human reasoning, and Jesus rebuked the devil behind those words (Matthew 16:23). Not all "prophetic" words are divine, some are based on fear, tradition, or deception.

So ask yourself:
Are you believing Bible reality or earthly fear based traditions?

You are:

A child of light

A new creation

Hidden in Christ

Seated far above principalities

Destined for good works prepared beforehand (Ephesians 2:10)

Stop fearing what the devil cannot do. Start walking in the boldness of who you are in Christ.

Monitoring spirits ko delay spirits ni

Christianity EtcControlling Your Emotions by iamteegee(op): 11:29pm On Aug 04, 2025
Controlling Your Emotions

He who has learned to control his emotions is greater than the one who displays power through emotional outbursts.

Many believers today try to emulate Elisha when he was mocked by youths and called down a curse that led to their destruction by wild animals (2 Kings 2:23–24). While some interpret this as a demonstration of prophetic authority, it's important to recognize that uncontrolled emotions, no matter how spiritual they may seem, often lead to destruction, not edification.

We see this clearly today in marriages, workplaces, politics, churches, and relationships, friendships. When power is driven by anger, pain, pride, or offense, it opens the door to regret, broken homes, destroyed businesses, severed friendships, and even death, with many in prisons, some living their lives in regrets, eyes were blinded by rage. Some pastors curse members, friends become enemies, and leaders make decisions they later wish they could reverse, all because of emotional mismanagement.

The true strength is not in reacting, but in restraining. Power under control is the mark of maturity and true spiritual authority. This is why the Bible says, “He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city” (Proverbs 16:32, KJV).

Don’t give room to the devil, who seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). Guard your emotions. Whether you're joyful, angry, disappointed, or excited, ensure that your emotions serve you, not rule you.

Be like your Father (God) who is slow to anger and rich in mercy (Psalm 103:cool. Let go of bitterness. Forgive. Reconcile. Love again.

To the Believers:
Christ lives in you. The fruit of the Spirit, including self-control, is your nature. Walk in it (Galatians 5:22–23).

To the Unbelievers:
Accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior. You cannot master your emotions by willpower alone. Let Christ empower and transform you from within.

Finally Siblings , fix your thoughts on what is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and admirable. If anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such things (Philippians 4:cool.

Christianity EtcTake Responsibility! The Blame Game Ends With You! by iamteegee(op): 10:24pm On Aug 03, 2025
Take Responsibility! The Blame Game Ends with You!

The culture of always looking for who to blame didn’t start today. It began in Genesis with the first Adam. When confronted with his failure, he didn't own up, he blamed the woman. And the woman blamed the serpent. No one took responsibility. That same attitude has crept into society and even into the church.

Today, mothers blame their children for their struggles. Husbands blame wives. Wives blame husbands. Siblings blame each other. Some blame their uncles, aunties, or "village people." witches, marine etc except ourselves. Others have even been taught to pray dangerous prayers asking for the death of anyone they believe is behind their misfortunes. They cry “Holy Ghost fire” over people God sent them to love, but where exactly is that in Scripture? How many people has that fire truly "burnt"?

We’ve created a religion that feeds our ego and justifies our irresponsibility. Many have broken communication with family members because a so called prophet or pastor told them their breakthrough is being blocked by someone close. So, we keep moving from minister to minister, looking for someone who will echo our suspicions and comfort our laziness.

But here's the truth - mentality is everything. It’s the reason some societies have gone far ahead- because they chose to take responsibility instead of blame. Blaming others is the reality of the first Adam. But you, dear believer, are in the Second Adam- Christ! Why are you still living with the mindset of the fallen man?

You say your life is in chaos now, you’re in a mess you created? Good news- the Spirit of Christ in you turns wilderness into a fruitful field. He brings beauty out of ashes. He makes a way in the desert. You are not alone. You have a Helper. Your destiny is secured in Christ.

No devil can steal your glory - because Christ is your glory.
No gathering can stop your future- because your life is hidden in Christ.

So stop blaming:

Hormones

Moods

Sex

The devil

Village people

Your parents

Your children

Your friends

Your enemies

You are in the Second Adam.
He that is in you is greater than any system, person, or enemy in this world.
Christ is your security. Your end is already assured in Him.

Take responsibility.
Make better plans.
Walk in wisdom.
Act like someone who has already won, because you have.
The victory is already yours in Christ.

Enjoy His presence, fellowship with the Spirit!

To the Unbeliever:

Everything you’ve just read becomes your reality when you come into Christ. It's not about church attendance or religion, it’s about receiving a new life in the Second Adam.

Believe in your heart that Jesus died for your sins and rose again. Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord. Ask Him to fill you with the Holy Spirit.

That’s the beginning of your new life.
A life where you stop blaming, and start living in the power of the One who lives in you.

Christianity EtcWhich Is It- Heaven At First Or Heaven At The End? by iamteegee(op): 5:58am On Aug 03, 2025
Which is it- Heaven at First or Heaven at the End?

Answer: Heaven at First.
Heaven is not a reward at the end of a journey,
it is the gift of God given at the beginning of salvation. The moment you believed in Jesus Christ, you received eternal life (John 3:16), became a citizen of heaven (Philippians 3:20), and were seated with Christ in heavenly places (Ephesians 2:6). Heaven is not just a destination at the end, it is a present position and identity in Christ.

Common Religious Errors

1. Salvation Based on Performance (Works):

Many are taught that their salvation is conditional, they are saved today, but if they sin or "backslide," they lose heaven. Lies!

This contradicts what Scripture says "Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us." (Titus 3:5)

2. Fear-Based Christianity:

Emotional prayers like "Lord, may I not miss heaven" come from fear, not faith.

But Scripture says, "Perfect love casts out fear" (1 John 4:18), and this love was demonstrated on the cross, securing us eternally.

3. Backsliding Means Losing Salvation?

No. Believers may fall, but they are still sons. Jesus said in John 6:37:
“Whoever comes to me I will never cast out.”

What Does the Bible Really Teach?

1. Eternal Life is Present Possession
“He who believes has everlasting life.” John 6:47
(Not “will have”, has, present tense)

2. Believers Are Already in Heaven Positionally
“Seated with Him in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.” Eph 2:6
“You are citizens of heaven.” Phil 3:20

3. Your Name is Already Written
“Rejoice that your names are written in heaven.” Luke 10:20
Already written, not waiting for some future evaluation.

4. You Have the Holy Spirit as Guarantee
“You were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise…who is the guarantee of our inheritance…” Eph 1:13–14
God’s Spirit in you is heaven in you already.

Then What Is the Reward at the End?
The reward is not heaven, it’s crowns, commendation, and responsibilities given to believers for faithful service (2 Cor. 5:10, 1 Cor. 3:12–15).

Heaven is the gift.

Crowns are the reward.
What About the Saints of Old (Before Christ)?

Laws and works couldn't take them to heaven, they were in paradise (Abraham’s Bosom), not in heaven yet because the blood of bulls and goats could not take away sins (Hebrews 10:4).
They were waiting for Jesus, the only one who could lead captivity captive and open heaven for all who believe. He is "the" way, "the" truth and "the" Life, emphasis on "the" not "a" it's a definite word , not a way, truth and life amongst many but the only.

“No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven…” John 3:13
“These all died in faith…not receiving the promise…” — Heb 11:13
“He led captivity captive…” Eph 4:8

Now we who believe don't have to wait, we are born from above (John 3:3), and we have seen the kingdom.

The Assurance of the Believer
“My sheep hear My voice… I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish… no one can snatch them out of My hand.” John 10:27–29
That’s not temporary security, that's eternal assurance.

“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?” Romans 8:35–39
Nothing. Not even our failures.

However know this
You are righteous, it is in you, bring it out and in any areas you are struggling, stay in His presence, He loves you and is not judging you but rather He is in you to help you by love outgrow it. Enjoy your fellowship with the Holy Spirit.

To the Unbelievers

“There is only 1 way to be saved, and that way is Jesus.”

Salvation is not joining a religion. It's receiving the Person of Christ and what He has done:

Believe: Jesus is God. He died for your sins.
Confess: He is Lord and risen.
Receive: Eternal life now—not later.
Ask that He fills you with the Holy Spirit and by faith He is in you and fellowship with the Holy Spirit, understand His words.

To as many as received Him, He gave the right to become sons of God (John 1:12)

Finally Siblings
Heaven is a gift received now, not a prize given later.

Believers are secure in Christ, not walking on a tightrope.

Preach the gospel of grace, not fear-based religion.

Rewards will be given, but eternal life is not a reward, it is the foundation.

Stop emotional gospel, rest not in your own self but rest in Him.

Christianity EtcExposing The Spiritual Spouse Scam: Christ Or Culture? by iamteegee(op): 1:19am On Aug 02, 2025
Exposing the Spiritual Spouse Scam: Christ or Culture?

What is a “Spiritual Spouse”?
The term “spiritual spouse” is widely used—especially in African traditional beliefs and some parts of charismatic Christianity—to describe a demonic spirit said to be “married” to a person. Victims often claim to have dreams of sexual encounters, followed by real-life consequences like delay in marriage, failure in business, miscarriages, or unexplainable problems.

Let’s be clear:
These are not biblical truths, but human experiences interpreted through superstition, fear, and religious confusion. This is nothing but demons taking advantage of ignorance and the unrenewed mind of believers.

What Did Jesus Actually Do?

“For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.” – 1 John 3:8

“The thief comes to steal, kill and destroy, but I have come that you may have life and have it more abundantly.” – John 10:10

Jesus didn’t come to manage demons, negotiate with spirits, or make believers keep going through repeated deliverances. He came to destroy their works and give eternal, victorious, abundant life.

Why “Spiritual Spouse” Teaching is Dangerous

1. It is not found anywhere in the Bible.
If this concept was truly important, the apostles would have taught it. But nowhere in Acts or the Epistles do we see believers being delivered from "spirit husbands" or "spirit wives." And you know why? Christ consciousness, Christ reality thats Superior.

2. It creates a never-ending cycle of fear and deliverance. Deliverance that never ends.
You keep returning to deliverance ministers who exploit your fears and feed your trauma for profit.

3. It denies your identity in Christ.
If you’re in Christ and believe you’re still “married” to a demon, then you’ve missed the power of the cross.

2 Corinthians 5:17 “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. Old things have passed away. Behold (look!), all things have become new.”

Colossians 1:13 “He has delivered us from the power of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of His dear Son.”

1 Corinthians 6:17 “He that is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.”

You are not married to a demon. You are married to Christ.

So Why Do Some Still Have These Dreams?

Some are experiencing psychological stress, guilt, repressed trauma, mental exhaustion, or lust and economical stress that causes financial issues, affects businesses and careers

Others have been fed fear-based teachings, and their imagination and mind have been programmed by fear.

Satan works through lies (John 8:44). If you believe a lie, it can influence your experience.

But dreams do not define you. Christ does.

The Real Problem is An Unrenewed Mind

Romans 12:2 “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind…”

John 15:3 “Now you are clean through the word I have spoken to you.”

2 Corinthians 10:5 “Casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God…”

You must reject every mindset, imagination, belief system, and fear that opposes your identity in Christ no matter who preached it or how popular it is.

How can a person filled with the Holy Spirit still believe they’re tied to a spirit spouse? That’s not deliverance, that’s deception. Wake up!

Truth You Must Embrace

You are in Christ.

You are joined to the Lord.

You are in the light.

You are delivered.

You are seated with Christ.

You are holy, righteous, and new.

Colossians 3:3 Your life is hidden with Christ in God.”

John 8:32 You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

Siblings Trash the Lie, Embrace the Truth

You do not need another deliverance.
You need revelation of what Christ has done.
You need renewal of mind through the Word.
You need to be Christ-conscious, not demon-conscious.

Even if you dream about sex, don’t panic. That dream is not your identity. Wake up and say:

“Thank you Jesus that I’m new, holy, and righteous. My spirit is joined to You. I walk in light. No dream defines me—Your Word does!”

Finally Siblings

The spiritual spouse scam is a false gospel that sells fear, not freedom.
Stand in the finished work of Christ.
Be bold in your identity.
Reject every form of religious manipulation.

You are the bride of Christ not a victim of darkness.
Be Christ-conscious, and the shadows will disappear.

To the unbelievers
To get through freedom from these, accept Jesus as your Lord and savior, believe and confesswith your mouth, be filled with the Spirit 2cor3:17 where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom or liberty

Christianity EtcExposing The Spiritual Spouse Scam: Christ Or Culture? by iamteegee(op): 12:58am On Aug 02, 2025
Exposing the Spiritual Spouse Scam: Christ or Culture?

What is a “Spiritual Spouse”?
The term “spiritual spouse” is widely used—especially in African traditional beliefs and some parts of charismatic Christianity—to describe a demonic spirit said to be “married” to a person. Victims often claim to have dreams of sexual encounters, followed by real-life consequences like delay in marriage, failure in business, miscarriages, or unexplainable problems.

Let’s be clear:
These are not biblical truths, but human experiences interpreted through superstition, fear, and religious confusion. This is nothing but demons taking advantage of ignorance and the unrenewed mind of believers.

What Did Jesus Actually Do?

“For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.” – 1 John 3:8

“The thief comes to steal, kill and destroy, but I have come that you may have life and have it more abundantly.” – John 10:10

Jesus didn’t come to manage demons, negotiate with spirits, or make believers keep going through repeated deliverances. He came to destroy their works and give eternal, victorious, abundant life.

Why “Spiritual Spouse” Teaching is Dangerous

1. It is not found anywhere in the Bible.
If this concept was truly important, the apostles would have taught it. But nowhere in Acts or the Epistles do we see believers being delivered from "spirit husbands" or "spirit wives." And you know why? Christ consciousness, Christ reality thats Superior.

2. It creates a never-ending cycle of fear and deliverance. Deliverance that never ends.
You keep returning to deliverance ministers who exploit your fears and feed your trauma for profit.

3. It denies your identity in Christ.
If you’re in Christ and believe you’re still “married” to a demon, then you’ve missed the power of the cross.

2 Corinthians 5:17 “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. Old things have passed away. Behold (look!), all things have become new.”

Colossians 1:13 “He has delivered us from the power of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of His dear Son.”

1 Corinthians 6:17 “He that is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.”

You are not married to a demon. You are married to Christ.

So Why Do Some Still Have These Dreams?

Some are experiencing psychological stress, guilt, repressed trauma, mental exhaustion, or lust and economical stress that causes financial issues, affects businesses and careers

Others have been fed fear-based teachings, and their imagination and mind have been programmed by fear.

Satan works through lies (John 8:44). If you believe a lie, it can influence your experience.

But dreams do not define you. Christ does.

The Real Problem is An Unrenewed Mind

Romans 12:2 “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind…”

John 15:3 “Now you are clean through the word I have spoken to you.”

2 Corinthians 10:5 “Casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God…”

Christianity EtcRe: Is God Behind The Destruction Happening In The World Today? by iamteegee(op): 11:18pm On Aug 01, 2025
The end time signs war etc but let's examine the cause of wars we've had recently... Why is Russia and Ukraine fighting? It's all greed, minerals, people that gain from war so how's that God's judgment, when you n I make decisions that have physical consequences

You are not truthful


Dtruthspeaker:
Did you not read that He Said "it is finished" after His event iof He came not to Judge?

What else are the end time plagues if not Judgments upon those who have not repented?
