Fire Burning Hell is NOT a Doctrine Found in the Bible

Satan’s best deception is the doctrine of hell by which he’s led the whole world astray (Rev. 12:9, NIV). As I covered on my previous post, “Fallen Angels Rule the World,” Satan is the “king” of the fallen angels (Rev. 9:11) who set out to “be like the most High” (Isa. 14:14, KJV) and “deceive the nations” (Rev. 20:3). Therefore, his best deception is the doctrine of hell. And there are several factors to take into account to help us see that the doctrine of hell, what Christians have been teaching for centuries, is totally unbiblical.

Our Enemy the Devil. Since God has been testing humanity through this life (Deut. 13:3-4), He allowed Satan to be “the ruler” (John 12:31, YLT) and “god of this world” (2 Cor. 4:4, KJV) with “all authority” (Luke 4:6, NIV) warning us about him saying “Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour” (1 Pet. 5:8, NIV). He also warned us that Satan is “a murderer…and…a liar, and the father of lies” (John 8:44, NIV). And because he’s only been given a short time to reign on earth, Satan is filled with fury at God (Rev. 12:12) which he expresses by hurting humanity, the people God created (Gen. 1:27).

Leading the body of Christ to believe in the doctrine of hell, was a fabulous lie on Satan’s part so that we wouldn’t really trust, obey or even like God, must less love Him (Mark 12:30), since He’s so brutal. We all know that only the most wicked person would burn someone alive. Yet for centuries Christians have taught that God, whom they correctly say “is love” (1 John 4:8, KJV) will everyone alive who has not believed in Jesus, and that hell burn them alive for the rest of eternity, that they’ll feel that pain for the rest of forever!

How could Christians believe this horrendous lie? Because, the human “heart is deceitful above all things” (Jer. 17:9, KJV) While born again Christians, those who should have known better, not only believe this heinous lie, we’ve spread it for centuries helping Satan hurt our heavenly Father along with His beloved people for whom He had Jesus shed His blood (John 3:16). We’ve hurt people with because it DOESN’T draw them to Christ! Understandably. The doctrine of hell is a major deterrent keeping God’s elect from warming up to Christ.

While there are loads of stumbling blocks that born again Christians have placed before the lost, this has to be the biggest one. What a monumental obstacle! And the thing is that God says, “Make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister” (Rom. 14:13, NIV).

The Fact is that All Men ARE Liars. One of the main points God is working at getting across to humanity is that all humans are liars (Jer. 17:9) so that “there is none righteous, no, not one” (Rom. 3:10, KJV). Even the born again have a history of lying so that we’ve fulfilled “the rebellion” (2 Thess. 2:3, NIV). The body of Christ has proven that all men are liars since we’re the only ones who profess to know and love Jesus who is “the truth” (John 14:6, KJV) and yet we’ve historically NOT honored Him. We’ve lied to God, to ourselves, and to others.

And Satan knows that the human heart is deceitful above all things since he was created as “the anointed cherub” (Ezek. 18:14, KJV) to be “a ministering spirit” (Heb. 4:14, NIV). Satan is the most intelligent among God’s created beings. While he was supposed to be helping us, he rebelled against God (Isa. 14:14) so that he was given only a short time to rule the world (Rev. 12:12). Therefore, in order to get back at God for kicking him out of heaven (Isa. 14:12), Satan has been making the most of every opportunity to hurt humans by slandering God. And he’s done a really great job with the doctrine of hell since he’s had the help of so many.

The Bible Translations. Since all men are such monumental liars (Jer. 17:9) and because English is the most widely spoken language in the world, Satan hijacked the most popular English translation of the Bible, mother of practically all other translations, the King James Version (KJV), as summed up on these two web posts.

The Lord’s Character. God gave us a very clear picture of His nature and character by sending us His Son, Jesus, since “the Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being” (Heb 1:3, NIV). And the four Gospel books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John inform us about Jesus’ life and ministry. On top of that, God has given us the testimony of the first disciples through the rest of the letters of the New Testament.

However, because human beings are chronic liars (Jer. 17:9), even when we read the parts of the New Testament where someone is speaking other than Christ, we have to do as admonished and “take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ” (2 Cor. 10:5, NIV). If we don’t do that we’ll end up with a twisted image in our heads of God’s character and nature so that we believe stuff like the doctrine of hell.

A good example is with Peter in dealing with Ananias and Sapphira (Acts 5:1-10, NIV). While Peter had denied Christ three times (John 18:25-27) and Jesus readily forgave him for it (John 21:15-19, NIV), when given the opportunity to grant the same grace to others, Peter sided with Satan “the murderer” (John 8:44, KJV). Had Jesus been present, He clearly would have forgiven both Ananias and Saphira just as He had forgiven Peter and so many others. This is what God means in telling us to take our thoughts captive to Christ (2 Cor. 10:5). We have to do it in the Bible and in the world in which we live, especially around professing Christians.

Christian Rebellion. As I covered thoroughly enough on my first blog post, and cover in detail through this ministry of free books and videos, and summed up on this graphic, “the body of Christ” (1 Cor. 12:27, KJV) the real Christians and only people who have had the power to actually understand God’s Word (1 Cor. 2:14) have been in rebellion against God for most of the past 2000 years!

2000 year history of Christian rebellion against God

 

Since “the body of Christ” (1 Cor. 12:27, KJV) has historically rebelled against God like a snowball effect, born again Christians of every generation up until the present time have believed a load of lies that Satan has fed us, the worst of which, in my opinion, is the doctrine of hell.

The Doctrine of Hell is the Most Damaging to God and Man. The doctrine of hell is the worst because it makes people view God as the exact opposite of what He’s really like. Christians have been teaching that God is like the Father who set his six-year-old son on fire, David Rothenberg, in 1983. Yet God is “love” (1 Cor. 4:18, KJV) and demonstrated that love to humanity through Christ’s life and death on the Cross. While Jesus was Himself without sin (Heb. 4:15, NIV), He willingly went to the Cross for humanity to deliver us from Satan’s curse of death (Heb. 2:14) and to enable us to know Him even though we can’t see Him (1 John 1:3). God has also given us the completed Bible, His Manual for Life, to help us know Him since He was present throughout the Old Testament. And even hardened criminals wouldn’t call what that father did to his son as being loving. Just the opposite. What a deranged monster! Yet this is what the body of Christ has been teaching about our heavenly Father for centuries! And they think they don’t need to repent. Deceived.

God Created Humanity for Fellowship. The reason God created humanity in the first place was so that He could fellowship with us. That’s the difference between all the religions and biblical Christianity. Religion is a set of rules whereas biblical Christianity is a relationship with God through His Son. “This is the life age-during, that they may know Thee, the only true God, and him whom Thou didst send — Jesus Christ” (John 17:3, YLT)

Therefore, the doctrine of hell is the best of Satan’s lies (from his perspective) since it makes us NOT want to know God or know Him all that well since He’s so supposedly brutal. The doctrine of hell doesn’t exactly make anyone feel are warm and fuzzy.

Called to Rightly Divide the Word. On a mission to “be like the most High” (Isa. 14:14, KJV) masquerading as an angel of light (2 Cor. 11:14-15), given all authority over the world (Luke 4:6 & 2 Cor. 4:4), Satan didn’t just highjack the Bible translations but the actual Bible! We know this because when Jesus walked the earth He made a distinction between what the Jews had been taught in Scripture and what He was teaching them, which I summed up on this whiteboard graphic.

We’ve Been Brainwashed! Having fallen into rebellion 2000 years ago, born again Christians have believed more and more of Satan’s lies and had those lies embedded into our systems so that when God enlightens us to the truth on some point, born again Christians fight us on it instead of rightly dividing the Word of truth for themselves by taking their thoughts captive to Christ. This man sums it up. As does my testimony since I’ve been standing in No Man’s Land for 24 years, rebuked by both the lost and so-called believers because I’m supposedly out of my mind for being faithful to God (Hos. 9:7, NIV).

We Need to ENGAGE Our Brains! Having believed Satan’s best and most damaging lie about the doctrine of hell, it’s as if Christians have been teaching that God is saying “To hell with most of you!” since “narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it” (Matt. 7:13-14, KJV). While the way to life is narrow during this “present evil age” (Gal. 1:4, YLT), God doesn’t mean that everyone else is going to burn alive in place called hell for the rest of eternity! I summed up the ridiculousness of the doctrine of hell with this graphic.

Or else, professing Christians side with Satan by ignoring Christ’s teachings. I’m referring to the many who call themselves Christian who aren’t even born again, which is the majority according to God (Matt. 7:14 & . While they don’t believe in the doctrine of hell, they also don’t believe that we need to obey Christ. Either way, Christians are honoring Satan. As a group we are antichrist when we are supposed to be the ones for Christ.

While the Lord’s greatest rebuke had to do with hypocrisy (Matt. 23:13), Christians have historically behaved as if there’s no problem at all with hypocrisy! Again, because our hearts are “deceitful above all things and desperately wicked” (Jer. 17:9, KJV).

Why God Made the Devil Our Ruler. I’ve said it before in my posts and I’ll say it again. God made Satan “the ruler” (John 12:31, YLT) and “god of this world” (2 Cor. 4:4, KJV) because He’s using him as his tool. While Satan views himself as the Lord’s arch enemy he is actually God’s tool. But he is our enemy (1 Pet. 5:8). God is using him to help us understand what we are actually like, which is much more like Satan than like Christ. When we get that, we’ll genuinely appreciate what God did for us through Christ. The doctrine of hell, like everything else, is being used by God since He’s worked it all into His Master Plan (Eph. 1:11). The following playlist produced by The Total Victory of Christ channel addresses this same topic of the doctrine of hell within the broader scope of what God has done.

Praying that you would seek your Maker with your whole heart so as to respect Him (Prov. 9:10).

Every Heart is Deceitful Above All Things

This is what God says is true, every human “heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked” (Jer. 17:9, KJV). And the evidence reveals that the Bible is the most reliable ancient book humanity has on hand. In turn, this is humanity’s biggest problem. While it’s not what we want to hear, much less believe, it’s not until we admit this truth about ourselves that we can begin walking in the freedom Jesus purchased for us on the Cross. As He says “The truth will set you free” (John 8:32, NIV). While we all think we’re a good person at heart, God says we’re the furthest thing from that. So on this post I’m going through some of the primary ways I’m aware of which prove that every human heart is deceitful and desperately wicked.

World History. The history of the world reveals that every heart is deceitful and desperately wicked since it’s been a history of war, corruption, greed, and all sorts of suffering inflicted on humans by other humans. While there have actually been a few societies which haven’t participated in war, there’s not one which hasn’t involved deception. I know that without a doubt because humans start lying almost as soon as we can speak. It’s not as if we have to teach toddlers how to do it! Rather, we have to teach them not to lie, besides correcting other bad tendencies.

Crime. Violent or not, all crime reveals that every human heart is deceitful and desperately wicked. While some people are deceived enough to say I’ve never sinned, anyone who’s the least bit aware of themselves knows that they’re not good all the time. So while most of us haven’t been convicted of a crime, it’s not likely that there’s ever been anyone who hasn’t committed quite a few crimes during their lives. Michael Howard wrote this comment online which I think sums it up, “They’ve probably broken the speed limit. They’ve probably jaywalked at least once in their life. Most people have done things like this. So no, by default I wouldn’t assume that anybody has ‘never’ technically committed a crime.”

Helping me understand His perspective, since God is working it all out for His purposes (Eph. 1:11), shortly after I became “born again” (John 3:3, NIV) in 1988 I watched a documentary where they interviewed men in prison who had committed brutally violent crimes. And each one of them, at some point in their interview, said “I’m a really good person at heart.” WHAT?! They’d brutalized other human beings and thought they were decent?

It’s how we all think.

For example, ask people if they think they’ll go to heaven when they die and there are a set of responses you’ll hear: they don’t have a clue, they think they’ll go to heaven because they’re Catholic or because they go to church, or because they’re a good enough person. But according to the Bible, not one of those answers make you right with God. In fact, being Catholic or going to church are definitely not getting you into heaven since institutional Christianity (Catholic and Protestant) is a satanic system, as I summed up on this table. And if anyone was actually good, Jesus wouldn’t have needed to go to the Cross, and history wouldn’t be what it’s been. Neither would the world be the hell hole we’ve created. Yet it’s as journalist Chris Hedges summed up “We now live in a [world] where doctors destroy health, lawyers destroy justice, universities destroy knowledge, the press destroys information, religion destroys morals, and banks destroy the economy.” These things don’t happen on their own. There are people behind the scenes making them happen. People with a heart just like ours, “deceitful above all things and desperately wicked” (Jer. 17:9, KJV).

Christian History. Nothing reveals the truth that the human heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked as well as Christian history. I’ve already covered it with my first blog post so I’ll just put up this graphic here summing it up.

Compare the New Testament, which Christians say they believe, to what Christians are actually doing and it totally doesn’t line up. While Christians should be hitting the bullseye, as a group we’re not even hitting the target!

And God views us as a group which He calls “the body of Christ” (1 Cor. 12:27, KJV). While He also views us as individuals, He has called us to function as a group saying things like “If one part [of the body] suffers, every part suffers with it” (1 Cor. 12:26, NIV). It’s the pagan sayings It takes a village to raise a child or United we stand, divided we fall. That’s how the body of Christ works with the difference being that “Christ is the head” (Eph.5:23, KJV) of the group, the body, and that’s because He’s the One with the brains having created all things (Col. 1:16).

The Stanford Prison Experiment. This classic experiment conducted in 1971 also reveals that every human heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked. The professor tossed a coin choosing “prisoners” and “guards” from a regular group of college students and he had to shut down the experiment before the week’s end because the “guards” were behaving like dictators by the second day and a “prisoner” was having a nervous breakdown deceived by his own heart that it was real! Even the professor had lost sight of what he was doing snapping out of it only because his colleague saw it and SLAMMED him! They made it into a decent movie.

Little White Lies. The fact that we even have this term for our lies reveals the deceitful and wicked nature of the human heart. Jesus, who is the truth personified (John 14:6, KJV) has informed us that “the devil…is a liar, and father of lies” (John 8:44, NIV). Every time we tell a lie, no matter how supposedly white, we are honoring the most evil being in the universe. And there’s not one of us who doesn’t tell at least one of them every single day! You don’t think so? How about all those compliments you give people when you don’t even mean it. “Oh, I love your outfit!” when you’re thinking ‘How could she wear that!’

Advertising. We’re so deceitful that many careers are BASED on lying.

Racism. The fact that people have signs saying Black Lives Matter also reveals our wicked hearts because, Helloooo? All lives matter. And we’re all racist at heart. The sooner you admit it, the better off you’ll be since Scripture and historical evidence reveal that Jesus, the Son of God, was what we call Black as revealed in Revelation 4:3.

And you can be Black and racist. Married to a Black man I’ve received plenty of racist comments coming from Blacks targeted at Whites, again because of the condition of the human heart (Jer. 17:9).

 

My Life Testimony. My life (and likely yours) reveals that every human heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked because of how Christians behaved when I wanted to become a Christian, leading me AWAY from Christ rather than to Him, and because of how they’ve behaved for the past 24 years, chasing me away rather than acknowledging the truth, that I’m a born again follower of Christ, even though it’s obvious.

While God has had me spend 24 years exposing the lies, everyone has refused to listen even when I’ve spelled out the consequences for them, for my family (including several suicide attempts (not mine), and for the world (Matt. 24:21, KJV). Because, it’s just as God says “the heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked” (Jer. 17:9, KJV). In fact, “This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light” (John 3:19, NIV). Why? Again, because “the heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked” (Jer. 17:9, KJV). Christians are out of control as 4Him sings on this song.

This list revealing how deceitful and wicked we humans are could obviously go on endlessly. So the rest of that passage says “Who can know it” (Jer. 17:9, KJV), as in who can understand the deceitful ways of the human heart since WE MAKE NO SENSE! It’s like our pride overrides our common sense. Rather than being willing to be proved wrong, we lie to ourselves, we lie to others, we lie about others, and we lie to God to appear to be in the right. Even born again Christian adults behave like immature kids!

God Requires Holiness. God says “Be holy, because I am holy” (1 Pet. 1:16, NIV). Holiness begins by becoming “born again” (John 3:3, KJV) and continues as we become a faithful follower of Christ which we do by earnestly seeking Him daily (Heb. 11:6) so as to be able to take our thoughts captive to Christ (2 Cor. 10:5). It’s like we have to lasso each and every one of them down and only set them loose if they actually line up with Christ’s teachings.

That’s what we need to do because no matter how ‘nice’ we are, when it comes to God we are ALL “deceitful above all things and desperately wicked” (Jer. 17:9, KJV). That’s God’s point and the reason He’s allowed all of the suffering in this world. We can’t appreciate what He’s done for us through Christ UNTIL we admit why He had to do it, that our hearts are deceitful and desperately wicked (Jer. 17:9). Left to ourselves we will always create hell on earth.

Praying we learn to walk in the truth since that gives our Father the greatest joy (3 John 1:4). And it does because it honors Him and works out best for us.

Fallen Angels Rule the World

It wasn’t until after Jesus walked the earth that He clarified for humanity that fallen angels rule the world. But because of Christian historical rebellion it’s as if that information wasn’t even provided. Therefore, speaking of Satan being “the ruler” (John 12:31, YLT) and “god of this world” (2 Cor. 4:4, KJV) to a neighbor, a deacon in her so-called church, she said “I don’t know what you’re talking about! While this is the most important information every human being should know, professing Christians haven’t even got a clue! Because, we’ve fulfilled “the rebellion” God said would take place before the Lord’s return (2 Thess. 2:2-3, NIV). And most who do know that fallen angels rule the world, don’t take it seriously.

And yet, when bad things happen nearly everyone—including born again Christians—get angry with God as if it’s His fault, wondering why He doesn’t do anything about it.

Or else they pray to these fallen angels through different religions, as if they’re going to help them!

And most prayers from born again Christians are ineffective because “God heareth not sinners” (John 9:31, KJV) and “the body of Christ” (1 Cor. 12:27, KJV) is sinning against God today worse than ever before! The only reason He answers any of our prayers is because “He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous” (Matt. 5:45, NIV). It’s because “if we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot disown himself” (2 Tim. 2:13, NIV).

God Sent Jesus

“God did so love the world, that His Son—the only begotten—He gave, that every one who is believing in him may not perish, but may have life age-during” (John 3:16, YLT). God placed His Son, Himself, in a human vessel, on the Cross “overcom[ing] the world” (John 16:33, KJV) and informed us through His Word about everything we need to know to also be “overcomer[s]” (Rev. 3:12, NIV). It’s not God who hasn’t done anything about it. Rather, we are the ones who aren’t doing the right thing (James 4:7, NIV). More specifically, “we” professing Christians. Even more specifically, “we” born again Christians. If you want someone to blame, it’s the born again, the ones who are supposed to be “the light of the world” (Matt. 5:14, KJV). We are the most guilty party. Again, the level of evil and suffering in this world is in great part the product of Christian historical rebellion (2 Thess. 2:2-3).

So on this post I’m first providing a paragraph summarizing what everyone should know about the fallen angels and then I’ll run down a list of pertinent information.

The Gist of It. God created Satan as “the anointed cherub” (Ezek. 28:14, KJV) to be “a ministering spirit” (Heb. 1:14, NIV). However, before the creation of the world Satan rebelled against God having been informed that He was making man greater than him—since one day “we will judge angels” (1 Cor. 6:3, NIV), speaking of the resurrected saints, the born again. Understanding God’s plan, Satan said in his heart “I will exalt my throne…I will be like the most High” (Isa. 14:12-14, KJV). Aware of “Satan’s scheme” (Eph. 6:11, NIV) God kicked Satan out of heaven and “cut [him] down to the ground” (Isa. 14:12, KJV) where He has allowed him to be the “ruler” (John 12:31, YLT) and “god of this world” (2 Cor. 4:4, KJV) with “all authority” (Luke 4:6, NIV) for His higher purposes as clearly explained throughout this ministry. And when Satan rebelled against God a third of the angels rebelled with him (Rev. 12:4 & 1:20). Together they have been “deceiv[ing] the nations (Rev. 20:3, KJV) from the very beginning.

The Real Jews Were Black. Scripture and history reveal that the real Jews, and therefore Christ, were a people of color. I’ll cover it on another post but this passage makes it clear. “He that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone” (Rev. 4:3, KJV). You can see the color of those stones at these links: Jasper and Sardine.

God Created the Angels. This passage (Col. 1:15-16, NIV) informs us that God created everything including the fallen angels. We’re told the same thing in John 1:1-3, KJV. “The Word” is Jesus since “His name is called The Word of God” (Rev. 19:13, KJV). God created everything through Jesus, His Son. And they, Father and Son, “are one” (John 10:30, KJV), one in mind and Spirit.

Satan, the Destroyer, is the King of Fallen Angels. The only name given to this leading antichrist is in the following passage clearest in this translation (Rev. 9:11, NIV. The term Lucifer found in the King James Version of the Bible is not in the literal translations. What we do see are titles as with “Adversary” (Matt. 4:10, YLT) and “Devil” (Matt. 4:8, YLT) and character traits like “murderer” (John 8:44, KJV).

All Angels Were Anointed to Serve Humanity. Since the New Testament says “Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?” (Heb. 1:14, NIV) we know that this was God’s purpose for the fallen angels. But, like humans, they rebelled against Him. In other words, Satan was supposed to be helping humanity more than anyone else besides Christ because he was “the anointed cherub” (Ezek. 28:14, KJV).

All Angels Know the Details of God’s Vision, His Plan. Since the angels were created before humans (Job 38:1-7, KJV) and anointed to minister to God’s elect (Heb. 1:14) they were informed of the details of God’s plan through the ages. That’s why throughout the New Testament, both during the time Jesus walked the earth (Mark 5:1-8, KJV) and afterwards, we hear demons speak of things most humans didn’t know (Acts 16:16-18, NIV).

One Third of the Angels Rebelled Before Humans were Created. Hearing that one day the resurrected saints (the born again) “will judge angels” (1 Cor. 6:3, NIV) Satan rebelled against God (Isa. 14:12-14, KJV & Ezek. 28:14-17, NIV), at which time one third of the angels followed him into rebellion (Rev. 12:4 & 1:20, KJV).

The Rebellious Angels Were Cast to Earth. Discerning their rebellion and working it out for His Higher purposes (Eph. 1:11, NIV) God cast the rebellious angels from heaven to the earth (Isa. 14:12, YLT; Ezek. 28:17, NIV & Rev. 12:7-8, NIV), which is why they’re referred to as fallen angels.

God Gave the Fallen Angels Lordship Over Humanity. God has informed us that Satan is “the ruler” (John 12:31, YLT) and “god of this world” (2 Cor. 4:4, KJV) to whom He gave “all authority” (Luke 4:6, NIV) and he’s “king over” the rest of the fallen angels (Rev. 9:11, NIV). That being the case, he can also be called Lord God (though technically it would be with a lower case g). I summed it up with this graphic.

If any one of them, or any other spiritual being, appeared before us (as they sometimes do in the Bible and do in our day, think of séances, for instance) we would have NO WAY of knowing who we are dealing with unless we’re born again and have a decent understanding of Scripture (1 Cor. 2:14, NIV). In turn, most of the world worships these fallen angels who rule the world by way of different religions and practices, like yoga. Therefore, Christ says “Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it (Matt. 7:13-14, KJV).

The Fallen Angels are Furious for Lacking Time. God says “Woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with fury, because he knows that his time is short” (Rev. 12:12, NIV). But it’s not just him, it’s all the fallen angels who are filled with fury. And the best way for them to express their anger at God is to hurt His created beings, especially His most beloved humans. Again, God has allowed these fallen angels to rule the world because this so-called life is a test (Deut. 13:3-4, NIV).

Many Fallen Angels Rule the World. We don’t know exactly how many fallen angels there are, but we can surmise it’s a great number because of what we’ve been informed about some of them. For example, in just one man there was a “legion” of them (Mark 5:8-9, NIV). A legion is said to be around 5000, more or less. And concerning angels who did not rebel against God Scripture informs us that there are “myriads (Heb. 12:22, YLT & Rev. 5:11, YLT). In both cases we’re told there are too many to count (in other translations). The Greek word for “myriads” can be translated as tens of thousand (10,000). This would mean that there are more than 100 million angels, and that’s subtracting the third who rebelled against God (Rev. 12:4, YLT). The point is that there are loads and loads of fallen angels causing havoc every minute of every day across the world. They are also called devils, demons, or “familiar spirits” (Lev. 19:31, YLT), for example.

Fallen Angels Perform Signs and Wonders. Like God and the good angels, fallen angels can perform what appear to be miracles, except their “presence is according to the working of the Adversary, in all power, and signs, and lying wonders” (2 Thess. 2:9, YLT). Again, the only way to tell the difference between miracles performed by God or good angels and lying wonders performed by fallen angels is by being born again and knowing Scripture well, especially in relation to the “new covenant” (Luke 22:20, NIV). We know this because of what Jesus said in Matthew 7:21-23, for instance.

Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Matthew 7:21-23, KJV

Fallen Angels Rule the World by Appearing as God. Since we’re dealing with very intelligent and powerful beings of the spiritual realm and Satan set out to “be like the most High” (Isa. 14:14, KJV) to “deceive the nations” (Rev. 20:3, KJV) and he’s “king” over the rest of the fallen angels (Rev. 9:11), it would seem that they can all appear as God, meaning, deceive humans to think we’re dealing with God. Again, the only way to discern correctly is by being born again and knowing the Scriptures well in relation to the new covenant (1 Cor. 2:14).

Fallen Angels Often Appear as Angels of Light. Being that Satan is “a liar and the father of lies” (John 8:44, NIV) and he’s “king” (Rev. 9:11, NIV) over the rest of the fallen angels they would also have to be liars. So we’re told that “Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness” (2 Cor. 11:14-15, NIV).

Fallen Angels Use People. Fallen angles, like God, work directly or through people, anyone who’s not taking their thoughts captive to Christ (2 Cor. 10:5, NIV), which is nearly everyone these days to one degree or another since the body of Christ has fulfilled “the rebellion” (2 Thess. 2:3, NIV). We’re told “such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness (2 Cor. 11:13-15, NIV). That’s the extreme. But as my testimony of the past 24 years reveals as the Lord has had me reaching out to many people, some of which were obviously born again, fallen angels can also use born again Christians. Again, anyone who is not taking their every thought captive to Christ (2 Cor. 10:5). And today’s born again Christians don’t seem to realize this very important point. That’s the problem with being a born again hypocrite.

For example, my husband is clearly a born again Christian. It’s clear to me because when I specifically asked the Lord about it, if he was really born again and what part of the body he is, God showed me that my husband is a very muscular backbone for the body of Christ, something he couldn’t be if he wasn’t born again. And yet, his work for the government helps people kill other people when His Lord has told him “Love your enemies” (Matt. 5:44, NIV). So while he’s born again and being used to fund my life and ministry, since this is my only job and I don’t get paid one cent for my work, he is also being used by Satan to kill people God created. And the Lord has made it clear to me that he’s just an example of what the body of Christ is doing as a whole.

Fallen Angels are Liars. Since Satan is “a liar and father of lies” (John 8:44, NIV) the rest of the fallen angels are also massive liars. And since even born again Christians have been chronic liars for centuries, having fulfilled “the rebellion” (2 Thess. 2:2-3, NIV), these fallen angels have to be like the worst psychopaths ever!

And one of the things my husband immediately noticed about me as a born again Christian was that I always gave people the benefit of the doubt. That was true 24 years ago when he pointed it out. And I’ve discovered, again and again, that it’s what I ALWAYS still do! In a way it’s what we should do, err on the side of mercy. But it’s a major set up and let down. My point is that if this is what I do, even though the Lord has revealed to me very clearly that “the heart is deceitful and desperately wicked” (Jer. 17:9, KJV), if I still do this after 24 years it’s more than likely what everyone does. In contrast, Jesus “knew what was in man” (John 2:25, NIV). Jesus was 100% aware that every human heart is “deceitful above all things and desperately wicked” (Jer. 17:9, KJV). But even though we’ve been informed of this truth, we still view most other people, especially Christians with other professing Christians, as if we’re good people at heart. It’s like we lay out the red carpet for the fallen angels to do a number on us!

The Fallen Angels are Murderers. Jesus tells us that Satan “was a murderer from the beginning” (John 8:44, NIV). And because of historical Christian rebellion I discern that we’ve had the whole thing wrong from the very beginning, meaning our understanding of what actually took place in the Garden of Eden, summed up with this graphic which I walk through somewhere on this playlist where I’m reading through my free book Satan Exposed: Rightly Dividing the Word.

While born again Christians don’t want to believe that we’ve been deceived as gravely as we have been, if you take your thoughts captive to Christ (2 Cor. 10:5), which is what He has me doing throughout this ministry, it’s clear that when Scripture tells us that Satan has been deceiving the nations (Rev. 20:3) the body of Christ has been part of that group who has been deceived. Here’s a graphic that sums it up for those who are willing to be honest about it since we’ve viewed it as if God had said these words in Jeremiah, when there is no way that can be true. God told us to rightly divide the word of truth (2 Tim. 2:15, KJV) because Satan set out to “be like the most High” (Isa. 14:14, KJV) and “deceive the nations” (Rev. 20:3, KJV). And as my material reveals, even born again Christians have been outrageously deceived by Satan in the Scriptures, the word of truth, which we were supposed to divide.

The Fallen Angels Know How God Aims to Use Each of Us. Because of what we’ve been told about Job (Job 1:8-12, NIV), about Jesus, and about Paul and his companions (Acts 16:16-18, NIV), as well as from personal experience, I discern the fallen angels know the “good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in” (Eph. 2:10, NIV), which are different works for each one of us.  So while we’re no match for these fallen angels, part of the beauty of being born again is that “greater is he that is in [us, referring to God by way of His Spirit, us being the born again], than he that is in the world [referring to Satan, which would include the rest of the fallen angels]” (1 John 4:4, KJV). While we’re no match for even the weakest fallen angel, in Christ we’ve got this. Or, better said, we will have it when we finally function as required (John 4:24 & Eph. 5:21).

 

Praying “that [y]our eyes may be opened” (Matt. 20:33, KJV).

Jesus Says FOLLOW Me

Jesus says we “must be born again” (John 3:7, NIV) because it’s the only way we’ll understand God (1 Cor. 2:14). But to fully understand and not get spiritually deceived we have to be faithful born again followers of Christ. I summed it up on this graphic.

We Must Learn from the Father

God, our Father, gave us the Bible. As covered on the previous post, there’s more than enough evidence revealing that the Bible is the most reliable ancient book humanity has on hand. In it Jesus says “Everyone who has heard the Father and learned from him comes to me” (John 6:45, NIV). We learn from the Father by earnestly seeking God in His world and in His Word, the Bible. He says “You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart” (Jer. 29:13, NIV).

Therefore, born again Christians have typically sought out different religions and read plenty of philosophical books including the Bible. Being earnest in our hunger for truth we were eventually led to Christ who personifies the truth (John 14:6, KJV) as well as food (John 6:55, NIV), satisfying our hunger and thirst for righteousness.

Understanding What Jesus Did. Being honest about our own lives we get convicted as we earnestly consider Jesus’ life and ministry. We experience revelation about ourselves and what He did for us. Before we became born again, we’d been living for ourselves, and that’s a spectrum from having been as bad as a murderer to being very studios and clean cut, for example. Either way, we’d been sinning against God because the greatest commandment is to “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength” (Mark 12:30, NIV). God’s wants it all because every good aspect of our lives comes from Him, as with our brain as well as loving family and friends, health, opportunities, all of it (James 1:17, NIV). In turn, He wants us to express our appreciation to Him for everything He’s done for us. He wants us to become a born again follower of Christ.

God Works By Way of Revelation. You see conversion experiences in movies all the time, especially Christian movies, but not only. Having been living for ourselves, often on the fast track to Satan’s deceptions of money, popularity, and materialism, what’s described in the Bible as “the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life” (1 John 2:16, NIV), as those things start revealing their evil consequences, we tend to become more open to what God has been saying to us about ourselves, that we’re not the “good” or “smart” person we thought we were, whatever we thought we were we’re a whole lot worse! We are sinners in need of His grace and salvation. So here’s a great scene from Sergeant York.

Pagan Churchianity

While Christianity as most know it, and as pictured on the movie clip, is not real Christianity as I summed up on this table, God uses everything for His purposes (Eph. 1:11, KJV). According to Scripture God has taken all of our sins and worked them all into His Plan. In other words, while Satan has used that fake version of Christianity to “deceive the nations” (Rev. 20:3, KJV) for centuries, as revealed on my first post, God has also been using it for His purposes.

But that doesn’t mean that we should continue to go to those so-called churches once God has revealed to us that the system is pagan. God wants us to come out of the world and out the fake spirituality.

God says Come Out of the World: “Come out from them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you” (2 Cor. 6;17

God Says Come of Churchianity: “Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues” (Rev. 18:4, KJV).

The real Church, the one Jesus is building (Matt. 16:18, NIV), is made of people, the born again, “living stones” (1 Pet. 2:5, NIV), who typically meet in houses.

But it’s nearly impossible to find a biblical house church these days since “the body of Christ” (1 Cor. 12:27, KJV) has thoroughly fulfilled “the rebellion” (2 Thess. 2:2-3, NIV). We are living in the worst days of Christianity where lies rule, just as they do in the world. It’s humanity’s biggest problem (Jer. 17:9) and the reason Jesus prophesied that only a “few” from this present evil age would be saved (Matt. 7:13-14, NIV). But that doesn’t mean they’re going to hell as I’m explaining in this blog and cover in free books and videos.

Biblical Fellowship, Real Church

God says to the born again “Ye are God’s building” (1 Cor. 3:9, KJV). Having become born again we have to keep seeking, believing, and obeying Him, praying for genuine fellowship while doing as He leads (John 10:27). Eventually, He’ll provide us with a local body of believers. But it might take a while. I’ve been waiting for 24 years! In a way 34! Again, because we’re living at the bottom of the barrel having fulfilled the “falling away” period (2 Thess. 2:3, KJV), the darkest days of Christian history which have landed us in the darkest days of world history.

Real Church is made up of people, born again followers of Christ along with earnest seekers of truth who have not yet become born again. We do not need a pope, priest, or pastor because “we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God” (Heb. 4:14, KJV). Paul and the other early Church leaders where facilitators. But they all functioned as a “body” under Christ who is “the head” of the body (Eph. 5:23, NIV). Under Christ’s lordship they all did their part (Eph. 2:10), some better than others. On my second YouTube channel I’ve put together several playlists of others explaining real Church very clearly and by example.

In contrast, institutional church leaders are paid professionals who Jesus said don’t even care for the sheep (John 10:11-13). Rather than care about others or about God, whom they profess to know and love, they care more about their career and everything that comes with it. They’re just like the Pharisees and teachers of the law of Jesus’ day. They Lord over people as if they’re God when Jesus says “Those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant” (Mark 10:42-43, NIV).

Set Apart for the Gospel

One of the reasons Christianity is just like the rest of the world today and nearly totally ineffective is because the born again have historically not stood firm in their faith. And “if you do not stand firm in your faith, you will not stand at all” (Isa. 7:9, NIV). Christian history proves God’s Word.

Therefore, we really don’t want to water down the truth for the sake of convenience. What we need to do is what Paul modeled for us. He wrote “When God…set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me by his grace…my immediate response was not to consult any human being” (Gal. 1:15-16, NIV). Instead of giving in to his own opinions or those of other Christians, Paul spent time earnestly seeking the Lord and getting to know Him. It’s what we want to do as well keeping in mind the powerful magnetic pull of peer pressure. It’s what I’ve been doing for decades.

If you’ve been convicted that you’re a sinner and that “salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12, NIV) you are no longer of the world (John 17:16) but set apart “created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that [you] should walk in” (Eph. 2:10, KJV). It’s a calling to go against the grain as you follow Christ. I just watched this movie last night and it pretty much sums it up. (That’s what the Bible calls “walk[ing] in the Spirit” (Gal. 5:16, KJV).

Jesus Purchased Us for God with His Life. The New Testament says “the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many” (Mark 10:45, NIV). By going to the Cross even though He was “without sin” (Heb. 4:15, KJV), Jesus took our place and paid the price for our sins. Scripture says “You were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies” (1 Cor. 6:20, NIV). Again, He means with everything we’ve got. If we genuinely love Him we’ll be a born again follower of Christ. And we reveal our love for Him not by saying “I’m a Christian” or “I’m a believer” but by following Him. “Let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth” (1 John 3:18, NIV).

As noted on my first blog post, this life isn’t actually the real thing. It’s been a test (Deut. 13:3-4, NIV). While He was speaking to the Israelites in the passage, it’s just as true for all of us. Real life is the one after this one. The next life is “the life that is truly life” (1 Tim. 6:19, NIV). The best anyone can experience in this so-called life won’t even compare to the next life since He says “Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him” (1 Cor. 2:9, KJV).

How to Become a Born Again FOLLOWER of Christ. Scripture says “He rewards those who earnestly seek him” (Heb. 11:6, NIV) and says “Blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me” (Matt. 11:6, KJV). But since “the heart is deceitful above all things” (Jer. 17:9, KJV) EVERYONE gets offended by Him, including the born again!

Therefore, in order to not get offended by the truth (John 14:6) we have to ignore our opinions along with the pack mentality and rely instead on the evidence which points to Christ, therefore, rely on Christ. We become a born again follower of Christ by “tak[ing] captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ” (2 Cor. 10:5, NIV).

And to be able to do that we have to be very familiar with the life of Christ as described primarily in the Gospel books (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.) The born again are told to “Watch out that you do not lose what we have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully” (2 John 8:8, NIV). Except most of the rewards aren’t for this so-called life. We’ll receive them during the next life. That point is made clear in the New Testament section referred to as The Hall of Faith of Hebrews 11:1-40, NIV.

Therefore, the way it plays out for faithful born again followers of Christ during this so-called life is like receiving a blood transfusion which didn’t have an allergic reaction. He says “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching [but]…Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching” (John 14:23-24, NIV).

  • Jesus Chose to Be Crucified for Us. Since “life is in the blood” (Lev. 17:11, NIV), Jesus shed His for us on the Cross because we are under Satan’s curses, the worst of which is death (Heb. 2:14, NIV). He was crucified so that we might live, have a more abundant life during this age (John 10:10, NIV) and more quickly experience the “life that is truly life” (1 Tim. 6:19, NIV).
  • We Choose to Be ‘Crucified for Jesus. Admitting we’re a sinner in need of salvation we become born again and continue to earnestly seek, believe, and obey the Lord. We continually die to self as Jesus modeled for us (Matt. 26:39, NIV). As the apostle put it “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me” (Gal. 2:20, NIV).

Shedding His pure blood for our sins, our bad blood, becoming born again followers of Christ adds up to spiritually receiving a blood transfusion. His healthy blood in exchange for our waste product. This describes born again followers of Christ, the faithful.

Christian Rebellion Has Hidden the Truth

Anyone who understands what Jesus has actually done for us would be willing to give up anything and everything required in order to honor Christ, like the first disciples who chose to die brutal deaths rather than dishonor Christ. And that’s just it. Most of today’s Christians aren’t born again followers of Christ because they don’t really understand what God has done for us. And the majority who are born again don’t understand because “the body of Christ” (1 Cor. 12:27, KJV) has been in rebellion for centuries (2 Thess. 2:2-3, NIV). And if the majority of Christians don’t understand what God has actually done through Christ, then neither do those who don’t claim to be Christian. That was the reason Jesus harshly rebuked the Jews who had be granted the information (Matt. 23:13, NIV). Like the Jews, Christians have “nullif[ied] the word of God by…our tradition[s]” (Mark 7:13, NIV). Another translation uses the term void (Mark 7:13, ESV). Christianity’s rebellion has voided out the work Jesus did on the Cross!

Therefore, since it’s been a historical rebellion taking place for the last 2000 years getting worse with time, as soon as we became born again most of us believed the same old lies. Most of today’s Christians bought the lie that Jesus got ‘em a ticket out of hell and they’re set, so they live for this world thinking they’re getting the best of both worlds when they’re more than likely not even born again. And even the born again today are mostly fulfilling Matthew 13:22. Today’s Christians are for the most part NOT faithful born again followers of Christ. Not even close.

The care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.
Matthew 13:22, KJV

The Parable of the Sower. The graphics sum up this very important parable (Matt.13:1-9, NIV) revealing that only one type of soil produces born again followers of Christ.

The only seeds which produced a crop were planted in good soil. It points back to what God says about earnestly seeking Him (Jer. 29:13, John 6:45, Heb. 11:6). It’s the genuine desire to know the truth coupled with a decent level of effort that produces spiritually fertile soil. And, as any gardener knows, planting the seed in good soil is just the BEGINNING of our work! Spiritually, we have to keep seeking, believing, and obeying in order to “bear fruit—fruit that will last” (John 15:16, NIV).

We Must Die. The seeds which land on good soil DIE in order to produce a crop for harvest. While God hasn’t called all of us to physically die for our faith, He has called all of us to die to our own will, again, as Jesus modeled on the Cross and about which He spoke right before heading there. “He fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will” (Matt. 26:39, NIV). Only faithful born again followers of Christ will produce “fruit that will last” (John 15:16, NIV) doing it by giving up our personal desires. In every way it’s following in Jesus’ steps, because everyone will ridicule us for it just as they’ve been scorning Him for these 2000 years even using His name as a curse word (John 15:20, ESV).

We Need to Try to Understand

Scripture says “where there is no vision, the people perish” (Prov. 29:18, KJV). When you don’t have God’s full vision of what this life is all about, you don’t die to self but instead live for this world, Satan’s world (John 12:31, YLT & 2 Cor. 4:4, KJV). In turn, you will perish in his wicked schemes (Eph. 6:11, NIV) without anything to show for it. While the faithful also perish in this life because of Satan’s wicked schemes, we earn rewards for it which will benefit us for the next life (2 John 1:8, KJV & 1 Cor. 3:11-15, KJV), the “life that is truly life” (1 Tim. 6:19, NIV).

Yet 2000 years ago, speaking to those who supposedly knew the truth, the apostle wrote “We have much to say about this, but it is hard to make it clear to you because you no longer try to understand” (Heb. 5:11, NIV). And it’s that much harder today! God has had me reaching out to professing Christians for 24 years and I’ve yet to meet one who will even try!

All Things Were Made By Him and for Him

Today’s Christians are such blind hypocrites that they sing of the truth yet call you nuts when you point it out! (Hosea 9:7, NIV). For example, they sing The Reason by Unspoken, part of which says “If we could pull back the curtain of heaven we would see God’s hand in everything, every hour, every minute, every second, He’s always been in it. ” That’s true. Having worked it all out for His purposes (Eph. 1:11, NIV), if you are born again, know the Bible decently enough, and are a close follower of Christ, you will see His hand in everything. It’s called being spiritually discerning.

For example, the movie Edge of Tomorrow (2014) is a great visual of the real Christian life as played by Tom Cruise. If you know the Scriptures in relation to the “new covenant” (Luke 22:20, NIV) you should be able to see a clear parallel between every single scene in that movie and what’s going on in this world along with end times prophecy. For example, the main character (the Church) was asleep (Rev. 3:1) and his Sargeant (Jesus) kept telling him to “Wake up!” (Rev. 3:2, NIV) because “It’s judgment day.” The were in a brutal war which they were losing, as we are, and it was because they were fighting their enemy as they’d always fought their enemies. Except this enemy had supernatural powers (Eph. 6:12). Anyhow, he had to Live. Die. Repeat over and over and over again, partly because he couldn’t get through to his peers since they were all so proud. That’s my testimony. And Tom Cruise’s role, when he finally stepped into it, is exactly it for the born again who are supposed to be good soldiers in the Lord’s army (2 Tim. 2:3, NIV). “For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that his life may also be revealed in our mortal body” (2 Cor. 4:11, NIV).

Many Will Be Shocked. Jesus has this very clear warning which, like most of His teachings, has been ignored:

Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Matthew 7:21-23, KJV

“Praying always for you” (Col. 1:3, KJV).

The Evidence for Christ is Over the Top!

Christians aren’t the only ones in rebellion against God. We’re just the ones who know better or should know better. And the most basic point concerning humanity’s rebellion is that God has made it obvious for those of us in these last days to know that Jesus is God. While there are tens of thousands of different religions in the world and multiple times that many opinions about who actually represents God, He made it a no-brainer for our generation to know the truth. Since “God is love” (1 John 4:8 KJV), He’s been merciful to the last generations of this “present evil age” (Gal. 1:4, YLT).

God is Speaking Louder and Clearer

It’s only been in the last 70 years that we’ve had the level of proof that we now have revealing that the Bible is the actual Word of God. As far as I can see it started in 1952 with the book Science Speaks: An Evaluation of Certain Christian Evidences by Peter Stoner and R. C. Newman.

More recently a math professor revealed that the odds of one man fulfilling just eight prophecies about the Messiah are 1 in 100,000,000,000,000,000, a number so big hardly anyone knows how to say it! You can read about it on this article. And the thing is that Jesus fulfilled 351 of the Messianic prophecies not just eight. In other words, God went overboard to make it clear to us that we can and should believe in Jesus since statistically it’s LOADS easier to win the lottery than for all of these prophecies to have been fulfilled in one man.

Even more recently Dr. Don Bierle published what I found to be the clearest book on the subject, Surprised by Faith, revealing that the New Testament, and therefore the Bible, is the most reliable ancient book humanity has been given.

Graphs revealing the New Testament is the most reliable ancient book we have.
From Surprised by Faith, Dr. Don Bierle

Then, even more recently, we have the movie The Case for Christ which essentially goes over the same information as Bierle’s book though not as thoroughly.

And there are several movies which have come out in the last few decades, like The Visual Bible and The Miracle Maker, helping us better grasp the life of Christ and His teachings. The following one comes at it from a Jewish perspective which is important since Jesus was a Jew, The Messiah: Prophecy Fulfilled.

Lovers of Evil

Given all this evidence, the typical response is still like the one expressed by an unbeliever who watched The Case for Christ and said “That was interesting” and kept on business as usual, ignoring the evidence! As Jesus, our Maker and God says, “Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead” (John 3:19, NIV). This is God’s main point, that “the heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked” (Jer. 17:9, KJV).

And nothing proves God’s point better than Christian historical rebellion since Christians not only know the truth, that Jesus is God, but profess to love Him. Yet they don’t actually obey Him as most actually know and God has me revealing through this ministry having had me follow Him through the so-called churches and Christian groups for decades. Being that Jesus is “the carpenter” (Mark 6:3, NIV) He’s using this ministry to nail His point (Hab. 2:2-3. While Christians know they don’t obey Christ they lie to themselves that they do or that it doesn’t matter, proving what God has said of the human heart (Jer. 17:9).

Jesus is God

While Jesus never said that He was God, the Jews “tried all the more to kill him; [because]…he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God” (John 5:18, NIV). And when Thomas finally confessed “My Lord and my God!” (John 20:28, NIV), it’s not as if Jesus corrected him saying ‘No Thomas! I’m not God!’ Rather, He rebuked him for not having believed sooner. He said, “Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed” (John 20:29, NIV).

God is Father and Son

I’ve never heard anyone explain it this way, but this is what I discern God did, as summed up with the graphic. I discern that like in cell division God, the Father, split in two, forming His Son, “the only begotten-God” (John 1:18, CLT). CLT stands for the Concordant Literal Translation. As a literal translation it’s more accurate than the others, most of which always call Him the only begotten Son. But He was both, the only-begotten God by way of mitosis and only begotten Son as carried by Mary.

Cell division is what God, the Father, appears to have done so that we have Father and Jesus, His Son.

Mary was a Carrier. I was enlightened to this by someone else in a book. They weren’t all that clear about it but what they were saying, which makes sense to me, is that God used Mary as the surrogate mother of God. According to surrogate.com, “in gestation surrogacy the child is not biologically related to the surrogate mother, who is often referred to as a gestational carrier…The embryo is created via in vitro fertilization (IVF)…Gestational surrogates…are not blood relatives to the babies they carry – they have no biological connection…only oxygen and nutrients are passed to the baby from the pregnant woman through the umbilical cord.” God used Mary like a surrogate mother.

Therefore, we shouldn’t idolize Mary like Catholics and some others do since “There is none righteous, no, not one.” Mary was “highly favored” (Luke 1:28, NIV) by God because she was the one He picked for the job. It’s like when we pick a chip out of the bag, we don’t even give it a second’s thought since they’re all basically THE SAME. So while He did give Mary this very special job, our affection, our worship, should be on God, the Creator, rather than on Mary, a created being. Like everyone else, Mary needed the Lord’s saving grace.

God Our Father. One of the reasons God calls Himself “Father” (James 1:17, NIV) is because He views us as His “dear children” (Eph. 5:1, KJV), something like how some of us view our little spring plants as our babies, except we really are His babies since He created us. As He had the psalmist write “You created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb” (Ps. 139:13, NIV). As our Father He wants to bless and protect us while, at the same time, not being taken for granted for the rest of eternity. Therefore Scripture says “the Lord disciplines those he loves, as a father the son he delights in” (Prov. 3:12, NIV). That’s what God is doing through the ages, a vision I summed up with this graphic.

A timeline of the ages according to Scripture.
God’s Vision as Revealed in the Bible

God’s vision is drastically different than Christians have been teaching for centuries, for most of Christian history for not having taken God as seriously as we should have (2 Cor. 10:5, NIV). And the truth isn’t based on wishful thinking, hypocrisy, or religion but on the work Jesus did on the Cross (Jer. 29:13).

Human Vessels of Clay

Another way God views Himself and us is as Potter and clay. Scripture says “You, Lord, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand” (Isa. 64:8, NIV). When we did pottery as homeschoolers my girls and I each had a vision in mind of what we wanted to make. Then we started by taking a lump of clay and banging the mess out of it to get rid of air bubbles. In humans it’s all that proud ‘hot air.’ That’s in great part what the trials are for, as Christians have been informed in James 1:2-4 for example.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
James 1:2-4, NIV

After getting rid of as much air as possible, working as the potter we proceeded to flatten, cut, gouge, scrape, etc., and finally placed our clay in a very hot kiln so as to end up with what we had envisioned. It’s what God, our Father, the Potter, is doing with every single human being He created. And it works out best for us if we let Him do what He wants with us rather than fighting Him on it. Sure, it hurts. But it hurts less this way since it’s the FAST FORWARD approach which Christians refer to as the Refiner’s Fire.

And God’s vision for us is a replica of Himself, specifically Jesus, of whom they “were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well” (Mark 7:37, KJV). God is making everyone He has ever created into a genuinely loving person who always honors Him and, therefore, is always also loving to others. But He’s working in stages, through the ages pictured in this graphic with a bit more explanation.

Arrow with the three ages and relevant Scriptures.

Christian Historical Rebellion

Like the Israelites to whom Joshua said “Ye are witnesses against yourselves that ye have chosen you the Lord, to serve him. And they said, We are witnesses” (Josh 24:22, KJV), Christians have been witnesses against ourselves because we either profess to be Christian when we’re not or are unfaithful born again Christians, again as God foretold we would be in 2 Thessalonians 2:2-3.

And while “The Lord is slow to anger…[He] will not leave the guilty unpunished” (Nah. 1:3, NIV). That’s what the Age of Judgment is about (my term based on Scripture). So, again, it’s better to let Him correct us sooner rather than later—better for us and for others, but especially for us.

God is Always Calling Out to Us

As He’s revealing through an aspect of this ministry which He has entrusted to me, exposing Christian historical rebellion (Hab. 2:2-3, KJV), God is always reaching out to us. The problem is that you have to be born again in order to hear His voice and understand it since “the person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness” (1 Cor. 2:14, NIV).

Unlike those who simply claim to be Christian, a real Christian is “born again” as Jesus says we “must be” (John 3:7, KJV). Being born again means that we have “the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him” (Acts 5:32, NIV), obeyed Him for a season of time at least. I’ll cover it on my next blog post.

Hearing God’s Voice. The New Testament says “if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts” (Heb. 3:15, KJV). In other words, if you want to hear God’s voice, don’t be hard-headed about what He has revealed to us, both with the evidence pointing to Christ and in Scripture, especially in relation to “the new covenant” (Luke 22:20, NIV). Yet even professing Christians will say “I’ll never believe that!” about Jesus being the only way to heaven (Acts 4:12). That’s not only super hypocritical but outrageously proud since even geniuses make mistakes. And “God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble” (James 4:6, NIV). If we’re going to grow we always have to be teachable, and that’s especially true when it comes to God.

Let the Evidence Lead the Way. If we’re going know the truth and be set free by it, set free from deception (John 8:2), we have to be open to the possibility that we may be wrong and willing to admit the truth as revealed by the evidence. If evidence meant nothing then this world would be total chaos. But there’s order in it, at least somewhat, because society relies on evidence as with medical trials and in a court of law. Likewise, Jesus says “Stop judging by mere appearances, but instead judge correctly” (John 7:24, NIV) or “Judge righteous judgment” (John 7:24, KJV). If all the evidence is pointing in one direction, as it clearly is concerning the Lord Jesus Christ, then it’s foolish to continue in another direction.

The New Covenant

Humanity is under the covenant Jesus made on the Cross having said “This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins” (Matt. 26:28, NIV). It’s a good thing He did for us!

We Have All Sinned. While I’ve actually heard some people say “I’ve never sinned,” we have all sinned and sinned hundreds of thousands of times, at least (Rom. 3:23, NIV). If you’ve ever told just one lie, no matter how small, you’re a sinner (. And if you don’t “love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength” you’re a sinner because “this is the first commandment” (Mark 12:29-31, NIV). I’ll cover it on another blog post, and I’ve covered it on videos, but this graphic of the two mounts pretty much sums up what Jesus did for us on the Cross.

Mount Sinai and Mount Calvary revealing through Scripture that what the god of this world demanded the God of all provided.

What Jesus Saved Us From

Satan is a fallen angel who was followed into rebellion against God with one third of the angels (Isa. 14:12-14 & Rev. 12:4) and he’s their “king” (Rev. 9:11, NIV). Working out His vision, God allowed Satan to be “the god of this world” (2 Cor. 4:4, KJV). Therefore, through His death on the Cross Jesus fulfilled Satan’s requirements while at the same time saving us from Satan’s curses, the worst of which is death (Heb. 2:14-15, NIV).

But Jesus also saved us from ourselves. Having hearts that are “deceitful and desperately wicked” (Jer. 17:9, KJV), we could never end up with a righteous loving kingdom. The current state of the Church and world prove it, and humans will further prove IT at the end of the next age since they’ll rebel against Him and His followers so that “in number they [will be] like the sand on the seashore” (Rev. 20:8, NIV). Left to ourselves we’d always end up with hell on earth, sooner or later. Mostly sooner. That’s God’s point, what He’s getting through to humanity through the ages and the reason He allows so much suffering in the world. We can’t appreciate what He did for us until we admit that we’re a sinner in need of His salvation.

The Problem with Cherry Picking

Picking and choosing what to believe out of Christ’s teaching—as people have been doing in increasing measure for the past 2000 years—is to rely on our own opinions which come from a “heart [that] is deceitful above all things” (Jer. 17:9, KJV). In turn, according to polls, some 81% of Americans today claim to be Christian. Yet that would mean Jesus is a liar since He says the way to life is “narrow…and few there be that find it” (Matt. 7:14, KJV). He means “the life that is truly life” (1 Tim. 4:16, NIV), which is not the one of this age. And “whoever says, “I know him,” but does not do what he commands is a liar” (1 John 2:4, NIV). God warned us saying “Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says” (James 1:22, NIV).

Yet, as He has me clearly revealing through this ministry, which is the combined work of many people, even born again Christians have historically lied about God and ourselves in many and monstrous ways. What Christians have been practicing for most of the past 2000 years—including the “born again” (John 3:7, KJV)—is Churchianity rather than true Christianity. As noted on the previous post, Frank Viola and George Barna proved it in their book Pagan Christianity over two decades ago!

Again, God wants to bless and protect us through Christ. And for Him to be able to do that to the fullest potential, we “must be born again” (John 3:7) and continue growing in Christ as summed up with this graphic.

Romans 12:2. Getting transformed by Christ

True spirituality, the most important aspect of this life, is achieved by a repetitive cycle of seeking, believing, and obeying. While obedience has become a dirty word for our depraved generation, it refers to a genuine show of respect. What Jesus did for us on the Cross was beyond measure an act of selfless love and devotion to both the Father and all of humanity. He should, therefore, be highly respected for it. And one day He will be so that it’s as He has foretold “Every knee will bow before me; every tongue will acknowledge God” (Rom. 14:11, NIV). But again, it’s much better to do it sooner rather than later.

And that’s the thing. God doesn’t force Himself on anyone. Again, that’s the reason there’s so much suffering in the world. It’s not God’s fault but ours (James 4:17, NIV). God has allowed all of the suffering because He has a great vision in mind which He’s working out through the ages. It will finally be completed when each and every one He has created willingly humbles him or herself before Him. And He’s made it clear that most will NOT during this evil age (Matt. 7:13-14). But He’s also made it clear that there will be a “latter rain” outpouring of His Spirit (Joel 2:23) so that many will humble themselves before Him as this age comes to an end.

But, because Satan, “the god of this world” (2 Cor. 4:4, KJV) is “a liar, and father of lies” (John 8:44, NIV), there are many so-called revivals taking place which aren’t actually a work of God but “signs and lying wonders” (2 Thess. 2:9, KJV).

Be Not Deceived. The New Testament says “Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world: (1 John 4:1, NIV). This is the reason we “must be born again” (John 3:3, NIV) and become a faithful follower of Christ (Matt. 4:19, KJV).

“For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God” (Eph. 4:14-19, NIV).

Exposing Christian Rebellion

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.

A timeline of the last 2000 years exposing Christian rebellion so that we have fulfilled it (2 Thess. 2:2-3).

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).

The best and worst case scenarios for the born again. Matthew 6:20, Hebrews 11:35, and 1 Corinthians 3:11-15

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.

The body of Christ is blind because of hypocrisy so that they can't even discern between true and false prophets. Matthew 23:34, Matthew 7:5, Hosea 9:7.

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.

Eastern hemisphere nations with a majority of their land area located between 10 and 40 degrees north of the equator.
Map of 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:

  1. It keeps the body from growing in Christ, and
  2. 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.

Me following the Lord. John 10:27 and Hebrews 6:6.

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.

A timeline of the ages: present, age of Christ, and age of judgment. Then after the ages.
God’s Vision

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.

A summary of the book of Acts. The first Christians were highly empowered by God because they obeyed Him as Individuals and as a group.

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).
