On this blog and ministry I’m exposing Christian historical rebellion and calling for repentance. It is the voice of one crying “in the wilderness prepare the way for the LORD” (Isa. 40:3, KJV). In response to God’s leading I’m begging God’s elect to stop hardening their hearts to Him and repent “for the saving of many lives” (Gen. 50:20, NIV). Yet “this is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead” (John 3:19, NIV). That’s my testimony of the past 24 years as the Lord has had me reaching out to mostly professing Christians many of whom were clearly “born again” (John 3:7, KJV).
CHRISTIAN HISTORICAL REBELLION HAS HIT ROCK BOTTOM
God foretold that Christians would rebel against Him before His return to earth (2 Thess. 2:3), summed up in the graphic.
God had to be speaking of the born again “falling away” (2 Thess. 2:3, KJV) because we’re the only ones who believe the truth that “there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved” (Acts 4:12, KJV). “The Holy Spirit…God has given to those who obey[ed] him” (Acts 5:32, NIV), at least obeyed Him initially. And we “receive[d] power when the Holy Spirit [came] on [us]” (Acts 1:8, NIV), the power to stand firm in our faith in our faith. Except we have to exercise that power (Isa. 7:9, NIV). Only the born again could “fall away” from Jesus who is “the truth” (John 14:6, KJV). Therefore, God has me exposing Christian historical rebellion through the combined work of many people.
Historically Most Born Again Have Been Antichrist. According to 1 Corinthians 3:11-15, summed up with the graphic, we can be born again and yet antichrist. And Christian history along with the current state of the Church make it clear that most have historically been “saved; yet so as by fire” (1 Cor. 3:15, KJV).
Today’s Version of Christianity ISN’T Christian. Having fulfilled “the rebellion” (2 Thess. 2:3, NIV), in 2001 Frank Viola and George Barna published Pagan Christianity: Exploring the Roots of Our Church Practices, which has mostly been ignored. (Before showing me the book, the Lord had me sum it up on this Table.)
A decade later, in 2012, research done by Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary revealed that Christianity had been divided, at that point, by 48,000 unbiblical denominations, practices, and beliefs when called to be united as one with Christ (1 Cor. 1:10 NIV). Yet Christians talk about being united in Christ, proving that “the heart is deceitful above all things” (Jer. 17:9, KJV). In fact, today’s Christians are so deceitful that even the born again get offended by the truth! That’s my 24-year testimony since it’s the testimony of “the church, his body” (Eph. 5:23, NIV).
WE MUST BE BORN AGAIN
Enhancing our present darkness and Christian historical rebellion, you have loads of people professing to be Christian who aren’t even “born again” as Jesus says we “must be” (John 3:7, KJV). And the reason we must be born again is because “the person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit” (1 Cor. 2:14, NIV). What they are is deceived. “Because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved…for this cause God [has sent] them [a] strong delusion, that they should believe a lie” (2 Thess. 2:10-11, KJV). It’s actually a ton of lies starting with the one that they think they’re Christian when they’re not. It’s the reason God says “Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, of course, you fail the test?” (2 Cor. 13:5, NIV).
Hypocrisy Makes the Born Again Blind. Being hypocritical Christians in historical rebellion even the born again have been blinded by loads of beams in our eyes even though Jesus clearly warned us about hypocrisy.
Being outrageous hypocrites since “the heart is deceitful above all things” (Jer. 17:9, ,KJV), the born again have historically believed a ton of lies about God, about ourselves, about what He’s doing, about what we’re doing, and about the world. That’s the problem with hardening our heart to God, we get deceived (Heb. 3:15).
For example, while Jesus warned us that “the hireling…[the paid spiritual professional] careth not for the sheep” (John 10:13, KJV), for centuries born again Christians have been looking to hirelings for spiritual direction, or otherwise honoring them. Hold even the “good” ones accountable to God’s Word and you find out SUPER FAST what Jesus meant. They’ll make your head spin so fast you won’t know what hit you!
Having historically honored hirelings, the body of Christ has been deceived in many and huge ways. And we’ve all been deceived because we were all born into a world with a version of Christianity that’s SEVERELY unbiblical. Again, the problem has been of Christian historical rebellion against God which has been a snowball effect taking place over the course of the last 2000 years
HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF
Rather than humbly “test the spirits to see whether they are from God” (1 John 4:1, NIV), like unbelievers, born again Christians have historically believed the false prophets and false teachers while rejecting the true prophets and biblical teachers as God foretold we would do in 2 Timothy 4:3.
For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.
2 Timothy 4:3, NIV
While Christians should be the most loving and honest people on earth, our own brethren bind and gag us tying us to the tracks, refusing to repent (Jer. 3:3, NIV). That’s essentially what the body of Christ is doing by not listening to those of us who walk more closely with the Lord and chasing us away. My testimony reveals it does involve life and death, literally.
By not submitting to each other in Christ, the body of Christ has left everyone wide open to demonic attack. As God warned us, “If one part [of the body of Christ] suffers, every part suffers with it” (1 Cor. 12:26, NIV). If the body of Christ suffers so does the rest of the world because we were chosen to be “the light of the world.” Instead, we’ve done exactly what the Lord told us NOT to do (Matt. 5:14-15, KJV). As a group, the body of Christ has been behaving just like the Pharisees and teachers of the law when, unlike them, we’ve been given God’s Spirit within along with the completed Bible. And here in the United States, we haven’t had the brutal persecution they’ve been getting in the 10/40 Window.
We’re Being Persecuted Relentlessly! The worst persecution Jesus received was, by far, from His own people. It was the Jews who handed Him over to Pilate to be killed (Matt. 27:17-18, NIV). Similarly, the worst persecution coming against Christ today is coming from His own people, the “body of Christ” (1 Cor. 12:27, KJV). On top of that, it’s also coming from professing Christians who aren’t born again. And finally, it’s coming from the lost who don’t profess to believe in Him. While born again Christians don’t kill other Christians, what they’re doing is worse because it does the following:
- It keeps the body from growing in Christ, and
- It keeps the lost elect from coming to Christ.
HUMANITY’S FOUNDATIONAL PROBLEM
Having sought and followed the Lord for decades as He’s had me working at exposing Christian historical rebellion (Hab. 2:2-3, KJV), this is what I’ve come to discern is the foundation of our problem. “The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked” (Jer. 17:9, KJV). While born again Christians know this, we all seem to think that once we’ve become born again our hearts are no longer deceitful or wicked since we have Jesus in our heart. Yet Christian history along with the current state of the Church reveal that we are still “deceitful above all things.”
Believing in Jesus is NOT Enough. According to Scripture, the only way we can overcome our sinful nature is not only by becoming born again, but by “tak[ing] captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ” (2 Cor. 10:5, NIV). That’s how we become a follower of Christ, useful to Him in building His “kingdom” which is “not of this world” (John 18:36, KJV). He says “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men” (Matt. 4:19, NIV). Yet the majority of born again have focused on being “believers” when we were warned that “the devils also believe.” And unlike today’s Christian hypocrites, “they shudder!” (James 2:19, YLT).
While we do need to believe in Jesus, we also need to build on the foundation of Christ well, which we can only do as His follower. If we don’t build on the foundation and just remain a believer, we won’t actually be useful to the Lord and “get saved; yet so as by fire” (1 Cor. 3:15, KJV). We “grieve…the holy Spirit of God” (Eph. 4:30, KJV), hurt others, and also hurt ourselves.
WE ARE AT WAR!
Having become born again, God expects us to “fight the good fight of the faith” (2 Tim. 6:12, NIV) like “a good soldier of Christ” (2 Tim. 2:3, NIV) fulfilling the Great Commission. God has given us a military image because we are in a brutal spiritual war, “not against flesh and blood, but against…spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms” (Eph. 6:12, NIV). Therefore, our Commander in Chief, “the captain of [ou]r salvation” (Heb. 2:10, KJV), commissioned us to “Go and make disciples…teaching the [people] to obey everything [He has] commanded” (Matt. 28:19-20, NIV). But instead of functioning like a group of spiritual Navy SEALS, we’re guilty of treason!
Christians have historically ignored the spiritual war for the most part, so that Christian historical rebellion has caused “great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time” (Matt. 24:21, KJV). The body of Christ is most at fault because we know all we had to do was “submit…to God. Resist the devil, and he w[ould have had to] flee” (James 4:7, NIV). That’s it! All we had to do to kick Satan off his throne was submit to God and resist his temptations. It’s no wonder God calls us fools (Jer. 4:22, NIV).
Instead of submitting to God, born again Christians have laid out the red carpet for Satan to “deceive the nations” (Rev. 20:3, KJV) and bring tsunami after tsunami of pain and suffering to this world. While the worst of it is happening right now on the border of Turkey and Syria because of those earthquakes, that insurmountable heartache is just around the corner from all of us since “he who is sowing to his own flesh, of the flesh shall reap corruption” (Gal. 6:8, YLT).
FREE WILL AND WICKED HEARTS DON’T MIX WELL
While God created Satan as “the anointed cherub” (Ezek. 28:14, KJV), He gave the angels free will just as He did us humans, so that they rebelled against God (Isa. 14:14 & Rev. 12:4). And, like Satan, the born again have exalted our throne. Empowered by His Spirit and Word, we’ve mostly lived for ourselves WHILE lying to ourselves, to God, and to others, that we’re faithful since we’re believers.
I’m No Better. The reason it’s taken me so long to start a blog is because the Lord has been further humbling me all these years since we’re all the same. “There is none righteous, no, not one” (Rom. 3:10, KJV). It’s been through that humbling process that He’s been clarifying His vision to me. “God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble” (James 4:6, NIV).
And humility is humiliating. It’s been humiliating because as a follower of Christ I’ve been left without a paid job since “we do not peddle the word of God for profit” (2 Cor. 2:17, NIV) so that I don’t have a penny to my name! On top of that, I haven’t had friends or family who will even speak to me about Christ for over a decade. If they’re not interested in Christ and the Christian should “have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them” (Eph. 5:11, NIV), having been “set apart for the gospel” (Rom. 1:1, NIV), I stand completely alone, with Christ. And it’s the mark of a true prophet.
Servants of God are People of Prayer
While Christians treat me like a false prophet, no false prophet would work like a dog, unpaid, going against everyone’s grain for over two decades, including those in my own home, praying for them to honor Christ as you can hear me doing on this playlist: Prayer Walking for Help – YouTube.
We’ve FAILED God’s Test!
As the Israelites were first informed in Deuteronomy 13:3-4 this life has been a test. And we’ve obviously failed it with flying colors!
God So Loved THE WORLD
Like some others, I discern Jesus went to the Cross for “the world” (John 3:16, KJV), and not just for hypocritical Christians. It’s kind of a no-brainer.
According to Scripture God is changing everyone “into one new humanity” (Eph. 2:15, NIV). However, He’s doing it through “the ages” (Eph. 2:7, KJV) and not just this “present evil age” (Gal. 1:4, YLT). I walk through it on this video. I am NOT saying that all religions and beliefs are good and that everyone will go to heaven right after this age as is taught by so many today including key so-called Christian leaders. That is clearly not what God has revealed to us in His Word, the Bible. And the evidence for the Bible being God’s Word is over the top. T
There’s Not One Good Religion. Even Christianity is a bad religion because Jesus didn’t come to give us a new religion. He came to make a way for us to have a relationship with God through Him. In turn, He says “My sheep hear my voice…and they follow me” (John 10:27, NIV). Religions are one of Satan’s “schemes” (Eph. 6:11, NIV) to lure us away from God.
The Doctrine of Hell
Unlike what most Christians preach, hell does not line up with Scripture since “God is love” (1 John 4:8, KJV) and says, for example, “To burn their sons and their daughters with fire…I did not command, Nor did it come up on My heart” (Jer. 7:31, YLT). Burning people alive is something Satan does since he is “a murderer” (John 8:44, KJV) and “him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil” (Heb. 2:14, NIV). This doctrine, which makes our loving Father out to be a monster even more evil than Satan, is one of the many lies the born again have believed because of Christian historical rebellion. And God says “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness” (Isa. 5:20, NIV). The “great tribulation” (Matt. 24:21, KJV) is woe indeed.
The Purpose of this Blog
When God’s elect listen to what He has some of us saying, they’ll experience genuine “godly sorrow” (2 Cor. 7:10, KJV) so that, as a group, we’ll finally fully submit to God and worship in the Spirit and in truth, as in born again and without hypocrisy. That’s what’s required (John 4:24, NIV). And it’s what Jesus modeled for us. For those not familiar with the life of Christ this video is the Gospel of John dramatized.
God is being merciful through this ministry, which is a combination of the work of hundreds of people. Those who take Him seriously will experience the full measure of His love and power as mortal beings, at His “appointed time” (Hab. 2:3, K. The Bible speaks of a “former” and “latter rain” (Joel 2:23, KJV). The former one was Pentecost 2000 years ag0, summed up with this graphic. And because of technology, and for other reasons, the latter rain will be even more amazing! True revival is so much more than singing songs and shedding a few tears.
Led by the Spirit to create this blog, I’ll be writing the vision and making it plain so that His people can run with it (Hab. 2:2, KJV). Unlike my free books, these posts will be bite sized pieces summing up what’s detailed in the books, all of which reflect my current understanding. Unlike what today’s Christians teach, even the prophets made mistakes, as I’ll cover on another post. The only One who is perfect is Jesus, the Son of God. (That should be obvious!)
God’s Timing. While no one has yet had ears to hear, God will bring His “appointed time” (Hab. 2:3, KJV) for this ministry. He’s made it obvious for me to know this truth. It’s just not happening in my desired timing. (That would have been 24 years ago!) It’s like when Jesus prayed for all who would believe in Him through the message of the first disciples to be united as one just as He is with the Father (John 17:21). That prayer that has YET to be fully answered 2000 years later! But the Father will obviously answer His beloved Son’s prayer.
Knowing God’s “word is truth” (John 17:17, NIV), I continue to press on with the “good works, which God prepared in advance for [me] to do” (Eph. 2:10, NIV), while also praying that He softens hearts among a people whose love has grown cold (Matt. 24:12).
