Vital Truths and Eternally Fatal Deceptions.    

 

Dear Friends,

I must alert you to these vital truths and the greatest eternally fatal deceptions that have deceived all of us at a time. These deceptions are infinitely more significant than all the deceptions of the world combined because they determine our eternity. Please read carefully and SELA.

The first fatal deception is not fearing, respecting, loving, and obeying God with all our hearts as our Almighty, all-knowing, omnipresent, righteous, and holy Creator and Father. The fool says there is no God and does not fear Him. The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom.

The second fatal deception is not believing God's words when He said we shall surely die if we sin. If we sin, God says we are dead, Jesus says He will deny knowing us, we are slaves of sin, we have no light or truth, and John says we do not know God and are of the devil. If you do not believe this, you will not fear God. Without the fear of God, you cannot have wisdom. Then you will also not believe Him when He commands obedience and holiness, without which you will not see God. If you truly believe God that you will surely die if you sin, and without holiness you will not see Him, you will fear Him, start to be wise, and you will seriously seek Jesus to deliver you from all your sins.

The third fatal deception is believing Satan's lie that you will surely not die if you sin. If you believe you are saved and going to heaven without holiness or that you will not die despite still sinning for whatever reason, you have been fatally deceived by Satan himself. Revelation 3:1-2: I know your works, that you have a name that you live, and are dead. Be watchful and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die. For I have not found your works perfect before God. Also, see Matthew 7:21-23.

The fourth fatal deception is to disobey God and instead of returning to God to stop sinning, we continue sinning whilst chasing after knowledge about good and evil, knowledge about God and Satan, about right and wrong, etc. and whilst thinking, on grounds of our knowledge, we are alive and not going to die. We should seek God for deliverance to STOP sinning, because we are dead if we keep on sinning - despite all our knowledge. 

The fifth but MOST SERIOUS fatal deception is to ignore and deny the deep grief, murderous and crushing pain our loving and holy Father in heaven and His Son in His bosom, feel when we sin and listen to a snake, liar, thief and murderer rather than to Him. Our sins against God fell on, pierced and slayed the Lamb of God (Gen 6:5-6; Ps 69:9, 20; 78:40-41; 95:10; Isa 7:13; 43:24; 53:5; 63:10; Ezek 6:9, Amo 2:13; Zec 12:10; Mal 2:17; Heb 3:10; 1Pe 2:24; Rev. 13:8). Therefore, the death penalty for sin is justified.  

The sixth fatal deception is not believing God's promise that Jesus Christ, the Anointed Deliverer, will destroy the head and works of Satan and deliver us from all our sins - so that sins may stop, we may be free indeed from sin, live holy lives, and not die. This is to think Jesus is unable to fully overcome Satan in our hearts, i.e., He is weaker than our weaknesses and cannot make us holy. This is the pinnacle of unbelief. If we do not believe Jesus can deliver us from all our sins, we will believe the other deceptions to get around God's words. 1Tim 6:3-5 says those who oppose holiness are proud, knowing nothing, perverse disputers, corrupt and destitute of the truth! Depart from them!

The seventh fatal deception, which encompasses and supports all the above deceptions, is believing "penal substitutionary atonement" (PSA), i.e., that God punished Jesus as an atonement in our place – so that we may not be punished and die for our continued sinning. It is to believe a sacrifice pays our debt and guilt and appeases God. God hates this. If we believe this, Satan has succeeded in the ultimate deception of our "Christianity."

Our holy Father and God incarnate came to earth as Jesus to deliver His people from their sins. He proved by His birth, life, words, and works He was God, but He was despised, rejected, and murdered by sinful mankind, i.e., you and I. To confirm His divinity, He arose from death and now sits with God to judge all who did that to Him.

However, Satan managed to deceive and convince "Christians," through PSA, to absolve themselves of Jesus' death and to falsely blame and blaspheme God for His death. This lie removes the fear of God, allows for sin to continue, makes us believe Satan's lie that we shall surely not die if we sin, makes us not believe Jesus can cleanse and deliver us from all sin but that He atones for and covers sin, and makes us believe holiness is not possible or essential despite God's commands. We continue to reject and kill Jesus through our sins, blame God, absolve ourselves - and we are so thankful and happy He died for us and paid our debts on Good Friday! This is the greatest evil and worst lie and deceit of all - and practically all "Christians" believe this.

The following scriptures were even changed to support these deceptions. For example:

·            Hebrew "Kâphar" (Strong's H3722), which should have been translated as "purging or cleansing," was translated as "atone." The blood of animals and of Jesus, which were spilled because of sin, were intended to purge and cleanse us from sin, but it was translated to say it "atones" for sin, i.e., it appeases God, it covers and pays for our sin, etc.

·            Hebrew "min" (Strong's H4480 (e)), and Greek "Dia (G1223), peri (G4012), and huper (G5228)" and Aramaic "MetuL (S11636) and KhLaaPH (S7196)" should have been translated as "because of, by, or through" to say, for example, in Isaiah 53:5: But He was wounded because of our transgressions; He was bruised because of our iniquities; Matthew 26:28: For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed because of many for the forgiveness and deliverance (aphesis) of sins. Romans 4:25: who was delivered because of our offenses. By our sins of commission and omission, we caused Jesus' rejection, wounds and murder. But it was wrongly translated to say Jesus was wounded, delivered up and crucified "for" us and our sins to support the PSA deception and to absolve man of their guilt in murdering Jesus.

·            Isaiah 53:10 correctly translated says: "Yet it was the Lord's will (it pleased the Lord) to be bruised; to be made weak." Jesus allowed us to do this to Him. It was wrongly translated to shift the blame to God for bruising Jesus and to absolve man to think he will not die if he sins because Jesus was bruised and punished by God.

·            Matthew 27:46 correctly translated should say: "My God, My God, for this I was spared." This was also wrongly translated to say Jesus said God deserted Him. It is then falsely postulated that it was because Jesus bore our sins, became a sinner, was punished in our place, and paid our debts. Again, absolving the sinner and making him think he shall surely not die if he sins because Jesus was deserted in our place that we may not be deserted.

·            Greek "sozo" (G4982) should have been translated uniformly as in the ABP as "deliver," meaning Jesus delivers us from our sins through faith in Him, but it was changed to say we are "saved" by faith, i.e., we are going to heaven if we believe in Jesus – even if we still sin. This is the very same lie of Satan to Eve – i.e., you will not die if you still sin because you are "saved" by your faith. Deliverer and deliverance were also changed to Savior and salvation.

"Justification and sanctification by faith" happen when we believe all the above truths. Then we will fear God, repent, confess our sins, call on God's promise to destroy Satan and deliver us from sin. Then He will do it, He will change us, and He will make us righteous, just, and holy, as with Abel, Enoch, Noah, Joseph, Moses, Job, the apostles, Paul, etc. Satan's fatal lie says, by faith in the PSA of Jesus, God "sees and declares" us as righteous - even if we still sin.

"Holiness" is also interpreted as "set apart" instead of without sin. "Eternal security of salvation" and "eternal election," despite still sinning, are the same Satanic lies.

All these deceptions, lies, and wrong translations are aimed to make men believe Satan's lie that they shall surely not die if they sin because....

The 8th fatal deception of Satan was to lead deceived men away from house churches, as in Acts and for the first 2-300 years, to establishing temple-, cathedral-, denominational-, learned priest- and preacher-centred gatherings, which God rejected after Jesus' crucifixion. They did it to maintain the deceptions, suppress the truth, cause denominational divisions, and oppose Jesus' death-prayer in John 17, which was for perfect unity which would convince the world that God has indeed sent Jesus. The learned theologians took titles, became leaders and rulers, garnered followers and only preached their lies, contrary to Jesus who clearly said He only is Head, no one must rule or take titles, and God hides His wisdom from the learned. As is evident from the above, God's wisdom has indeed been hidden from them. These egocentric denominational church leaders/chief priests were and are the biggest opposers and persecutors of the truth of God and are the dividers of Jesus' body. You are an enabler and accomplice if you remain with them.

What Shall We Do?

1 Peter 2:24-25: He Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness; by whose stripes you were healed. For you were as sheep going astray, but now you are turned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

Zechariah 12:10: And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.

Zechariah 13:1: In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness. Zechariah 13:2: And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered: and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.

This happened in Acts 2-4 and with Paul in Acts 9. Listen to the Holy Spirit, look up to Jesus whom you have pierced, and confess with remorse that Jesus bore your sins in His body on the cross and that your sins have pierced and murdered Him. Repent thoroughly, get baptized into His death to sin, make restitution, and He will forgive, wash, cleanse, and deliver you from all sin through His blood that you confess you have spilled. He will fill you with His Holy Spirit, make you righteous and holy, and give you victory over Satan so that sins may stop, you may pierce Jesus no more, and you may not die in your sins but live.

Then obey Jesus’ Great Commission in Matthew 28:18-20. All authority is His. Make others Jesus’ disciples, teach them to obey all that He commanded us, and He will be with you. Start with your neighbours. They also grieve and pierce Jesus with their sin and have been wounded by Satan. Then go further. If we don’t, we are accomplices to Jesus’ and our neighbours’ wounds and death (Ezek 3, 33).

Meet in houses according to Acts 2-6 and 1 Cor 12-14 with your neighbours who also repented. Everyone cleansed from sins by Jesus’ blood becomes a priest for God and a member of the body of Jesus with God-given gifts to edify all. The weakest members are more necessary, and God gives greater honour to the members who lack it (1 Cor 12). All in agapé love may prophesy/preach, 2-3 at a gathering. These are God’s commands, and true spiritual prophets obey this. Then people will repent, confess sins and acknowledge God (1Cor 14:24-25), the fulness of God will fulfil all on all (Eph 1:23) and He will make His manifold wisdom known to principalities and powers (Eph 3:9-11)! God ignores gatherings that ignore 1 Cor 14. It is no use you drive past your neighbours and attend unbiblical building- and preacher-centred churches which God ignores.

Call your gatherings “…………. (town name or neighbourhood) House Church” on social media to inform Christian neighbours where you meet. Later, meet with other similar house churches as it expands. This is the Biblical way to change people and societies until He returns. Maranatha! Selah.

GOD’S WAY FOR A TIME LIKE THIS.

 GOD’S WAY FOR A TIME LIKE THIS.                                                                                                                  11 July 2023 c

 

Dear Fellow Citizens of South Africa,  

It is no different today than in Nazi Germany or with the Rwandan or the Armenian genocides. Millions are being taken to be killed, we are aware of it, we see it, we read about it, we ourselves will be among those killed and it seems we are unable to stop it. Our court cases, even interdicts, criminal charges, social media wars, keyboard wars, protests, etc. go nowhere and the mass murders are continuing and are even mandated, promoted and expanded. Worst of all, but about which little is done, is abortions continuing now for 26 years and after millions of killings! Even more things are put in place exactly to control and kill more of us - e.g. 5G, digitization, graphene, hydrogels, heavy metals and aluminium in water, food and air, etc.  We are all going down and will suffer and even be killed with the unborn and vaxed as things are going.  

If I look secularly or humanly at the world, there is no answer or hope. But if I have a Biblical worldview, I have a purpose and hope….

If I read Revelation, a final apocalypse and doom seem inevitable.... But, I believe, as with Nineveh and Sodom and Gomora, God has things we can and should do nonetheless, which may change our fate in the short term and eternally. God would have spared Sodom and Gomora if there were only 5 righteous men in the city. However, He spared righteous Lot. God spared Nineveh when the people seriously repented. But if it is God’s will that we die, as the disciples and MANY Christians through the ages have died despite their faith in God, we are OK as long as we did God’s will.

What IS God’s will? Revelation says difficult times will come and no one will be able to buy or sell if we do not take the mark of the beast, but here we need the wisdom of saints.  Please apply your minds and prayers and share what you believe this wisdom is i.e. what we can and should do in times like these.  These are my insights.

As in the whole universe and in nature, God has given rules and laws by which everything works and is maintained.  He has given the same for man, but gave man the freedom to choose if he will do according to everything God spoke, or not. Jesus said: “It is written, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God."  If we do not obey EVERYTHING God said, we cannot live, we are not truly living and we are dead. Tragically, we all have chosen to believe Satan and our own minds, and we have allowed those around us to reject God’s commands, to murder the unborn and to suffer in poverty. These evils flourish because good men like you and I do nothing. Therefore the mess. The mess we are in, are by our own choosing and allowance. We do not deserve any favours or help from God after we have ignored God and the death-cries of the unborn for 26 years now and after we have ignored the suffering of the lowly for many decades. Actually, we all deserve suffering and death for this - and God’s judgement.

Worse still, every sin and wrong thought, word and deed despise and reject God. What we have done to the least and the unborn, we did to God. We also allowed our God to be “aborted” from society and from our hearts with every sin. Worse still, God sent us a DELIVERER from sin, Jesus Christ, but with every sin, we also despised, denied, rejected, disobeyed, pierced and killed in our own hearts.  

What shall we do? We need to sorrowfully confess our guilt, repent deeply and make things right with God, with Jesus and with man - and then DO God’s will. What is God’s will now going forward?  

Firstly, we cannot accept and be silent or passive or withdraw in the face of injustice for then we are accomplices and we allow the rejection of God and His commands, the crucifixion of Jesus and the injustice to men.  

Secondly, our present strategies, i.e. court cases, key board wars, protests, etc. seem to go nowhere. We cannot keep on doing the same things and expect different results.

So what else? What is God’s will?

I have come to the conviction that my efforts up to now were not the way God has laid down for us.  God has said how we should do things. It is best captured in Jesus’ words in the Great Commission in Matt 28 before He ascended to heaven and in what happened in Acts 1-4.

Jesus said: Mat 28:18  And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, All authority is given to Me in Heaven and in earth. Therefore go and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey all things, whatever I commanded you. And, behold, I am with you all the days until the end of the world. Amen. 

Act 1:8  But you shall receive power, the Holy Spirit coming upon you. And you shall be witnesses to Me both in Jerusalem and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and to the end of the earth. Act 1:9  And saying these things, as they watched, He was taken up. And a cloud received Him out of their sight.

Joh 17:23  I in them, and You in Me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that You have sent Me and have loved them as You have loved Me.

It is because I / we Christians failed and neglected to do the above that our world is in such a mess. The disobedience, apathy, divisions and denominations amongst Christians made them of little to no effect. We must confess this and repent deeply.  

Each one who now decide to repent and follow JESUS, the DELIVERER from sin, needs to obey ALL the things He taught us AND His Great Commission i.e. to make people His disciples and to teach them to obey ALL He commanded. We need to start with our neighbours in our streets and move further and further in our neighbourhoods and our towns. My / your challenge is to be salt and light in perfect unity with my fellow believers in my neighbourhood. Then the world will see and know that God indeed did send Jesus, the Deliverer from sin. In this way we seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, we fight the evil spirits in our own hearts and in our communities – and the rest will follow.

Eph 1:22  And He has put all things under His feet and gave Him to be Head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.  God will do all for us through the church, which is the body of Jesus and fullness of God on earth! Think of the implications of these words.

As a community and congregation of believers in a neighbourhood, we need to gather locally according to 1 Cor. 12-14.  Name your group 1Cor 12-14 ……….. (street name or neighbourhood, city, district, province) that we may find each other. Only together locally can we form a strong local bullwork against the evil plans of the globalists and far better fight, oppose, resist and stop abortions, evil and evil laws, porn, the vaxing, sex education, condom distribution, 5G deployment, digitization, crime, etc. and even ensure clean water, food and air locally and in our towns. If needed eventually, we can barter amongst ourselves without needing digitization.

These groups can then identify people to represent them and their Biblical values in local and national government under “BIBLICAL VALUES”. Any believer in any little town or neighbourhood in SA must start doing the same. If we do this in many neighbourhoods and little towns, the country can be changed and the mess can be stopped. This is also the end goal of the Christian political parties, the new Time2Rise movement and others, but they omit parts of what I mentioned above. We need to do according to every word God has spoken if we want to live.  

If we don’t do the above, we disobey God’s prescripts, our fights are carnal (physically focused), we remain individual activists interacting on the internet with other individual activists all over the country whilst neglecting our neighbours, we remain divided in our groups and denominations, we remain powerless, we have no effect in our surroundings, towns and country and we cannot defend our communities or the vulnerable against evil – as is currently the case.

If it is indeed the end-times and time for God’s judgement and the great tribulation and if we need to die, we have nothing to fear because we have done God’s will. That is another of Jesus’ commands: Mat_10:28  And do not fear those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. But rather fear Him who can destroy both soul and body in hell. Sin and disobedience are our problems. This is what we must fear and fight, not first and only all the physical threats we are facing.

IN SUMMARY: Confess and repent from all your sins and passivity which allow or cause grief, wounds and death to God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit and your neighbour. Receive Jesus Christ as your Anointed Lord to deliver and cleanse you from all your sins and fill you with His Holy Spirit and with agapé (godly love) and get baptized / immersed in Him. Obey Matt 28:18-20 and Acts 1:8 to make others also obedient disciples of Jesus Christ, unite according to Jesus’ last prayer and meet according to 1Cor 12-14. If we fail to do this, we deserve that it be done to us what we have done and have allowed to be done to God, to Jesus, to our neighbour, to the least and to the unborn.

Eph 6:24  Grace be with all those who love / agapé / sacrificially love our Lord Jesus Christ / Anointed Deliverer in sincerity. Amen.

LETTER TO NEIGHBOURS

 

                                                                              11 July 2023 e

Dear Neighbours,    

We would like to personally visit you, but in the meantime, and to reach more people quicker, we drop you this note. Please read it, think about it - and be invited to meet with us.  

 

OUR CREATOR AND FATHER’S GRIEF.

God is truly our holy, pure, righteous and loving heavenly Father and Creator. The whole creation, except sinning man, illustrates His glory and purity. Tragically, the Bible says our sins, lack of love, disobedience and rebellion are deeply grievous, crushing, painful, oppressive and burdensome to God.[1] It must indeed be very painful to Him if we do not regard Him for who He truly is, but we rather listen to our own little minds and / or the world and / or to a lying, stealing and murderous snake! The grief to God’s loving and holy heart and to His Holy Spirit is much deeper than the grief a naughty and rebellious child causes His earthly parents. Please pause and think about it! That is why we shall surely and deservedly die if we sin – as God said.  

 

THE MESSAGE OF THE CROSS OF JESUS:

To illustrate God’s heart to us, Jesus came from the bosom of the Father to deliver us from our sins and to win us back to God, but with every sin we rebel against, despise and reject Him. God then allowed all our sins against Him to finally fall on the body of Jesus on the cross – and our sins pierced, crushed and murdered Him! What we have done to the least and to His Word, we did to Him. On the cross of Jesus, we now see what our sins did and still do to our God, Father and Creator – we pierce, pain, martyr and kill Him![2]  Because of this, we all surely deserve the death penalty and eternal punishment in hell – if we continue in our sins.

 

FORGIVENESS, DELIVERANCE, CLEANSING:

BUT, God in His grace and mercy, is willing to forgive, deliver and cleanse us from our sins and from all the evil we did to Him - IF we remorsefully confess what we have done to Him, if we deeply repent, if we make right what we have done wrong, if we now receive Jesus to deliver and cleanse us from all our sins, if we get baptized / immersed in Him and if we live a new life. Then He promised to fill us with His Holy Spirit, that our sins may stop and we need not die.[3]

Seeing Jesus’ wounds, blood and death because of our sins should completely break our hearts, change us and win us over for God. Then we can truly die to sin, stop our idols, live for righteousness, be healed, stop going astray and He becomes our Shepherd and the Overseer of our souls – as the Scriptures say. This is what the Jews and Paul experienced in Acts and what radically transformed them. Then Acts 2-4, 1Pet 2:24-25 and Zech 12:10-13:9 will be fulfilled in us. We all need this transformation.

 

CONSIDER OUR FATHER & BE RECONCILED

As siblings of our one Father in heaven, we now reach out to you on His behalf.  Most people, like the Jews and all of us, do not know that our sins pierce and crush God and murder Jesus and that there is a terrible judgement if we should continue piercing and wounding Him. Please seriously consider the above, confess your sin, repent, turn to Him, be reconciled to Him and please do not grieve and crush Him in any way anymore. God only deserves our complete love, respect and obedience. 

 

OBEDIENCE ONTO LIFE:

God and Jesus said: "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God." 

 

THE GREAT COMMISSION:

Jesus’s last words, just before He ascended to heaven and by which we must now live, were:

Mat 28:18 – 20 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, All authority is given to Me in Heaven and in earth. Therefore go and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things, whatever I commanded you. And, behold, I am with you all the days until the end of the world. Amen. 

Sinners reject, pierce and crucify Jesus. If we keep quiet, we are accomplices to Jesus’ murder and men’s blood will be required from our hands.[4] Through this Great Commission, Jesus also gives us the way to change and help our communities and the world. This is what was done in Acts 2, how it changed the world and how it reached us. We need to do the same if we want to do something about the evil around us.  

 

JESUS’ LAST PRAYER FOR ONENESS AND UNITY:

Jesus’ other very important last words and prayer in John 17, before He was rejected and killed by rebels and sinners, were that we should be perfectly one as He and the Father are One, then the world will believe that God has sent Him. If we care for our Father in heaven and for others, we shall seriously endeavour to be one. What pleases any father tremendously, is if his children are one and endeavour by all means to be one – for his family’s sake. God and Jesus expressed the same.[5]

 

ONENESS LOCALLY:

This has to start amongst neighbours for the world to see this oneness. The world cannot see and does not see true oneness if neighbouring children of God do not even know each other and if they all split up and go and worship and try to be one with others in different churches far away. On the contrary, in not uniting locally but splitting in denominations, we grieve God, we are going against Jesus’ words, we are actually splitting and breaking the church, which is the body of Jesus and we make God’s words and best plan for us powerless. Sadly, many pastors love and allow it if we travel far to sit in their pews, listen to and are one with them – and if we contribute money and time there whilst bypassing our neighbours. So they are actually causing and maintaining the divisions, disunity and powerlessness of Jesus’ body. That is exactly what Judas did. We must repent from this.

 

FRUIT OF LOCAL ONENESS:

Eph 1:22  And He has put all things under His feet and gave Him to be Head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.  Just read it again. Amazing words! Consider what God can do through us and amongst us if we as a group of siblings of God meet and serve Him locally together in one united sanctified body of Christ, washed from our sins by His blood. Between us, God will give us the fullness of Him who fills all in all. He will provide everything the body / church needs!

 

STRUCTURE OF GATHERINGS:

If we now meet, we must meet as Jesus and God instructed in several passages e.g., Matt. 11:25, Mat 18:1 -6, Matt. 20:25-28, Mat 23:8-12, Mat 25:31 -46; Mar 9:35, Luk. 10:21, Luk_14:11, 22:24 –27, 1Cor 12-14. Please read these very carefully.  We MUST meet as God demands.

These Scriptures say: Jesus alone is the head, we are all brothers and members of His body, no one shall rule over others, no one takes titles, the one who serves and humbles himself like a child is greatest, the last and least are the greatest before God, what we do to the least, we do to Him, God hides His wisdom from the learned and reveals it to the lowly, the weakest are more necessary, He gives greater honour to the dishonourable to ensure equal care and prevent schisms, God gives each member gifts for the benefit of His body / church / fellowship, we are to seek above all AGAPE (godly love), without godly love we only make a noise and we profit nothing, all are to seek God’s gifts and especially the gift to prophesy (preach God’s mind and will), all are encouraged and allowed to prophesy and two or three prophesy at a gathering and the others judge the speaker (No one-man and one-band shows). If this is done, we will then experience 1Cor 14:24-25 and Acts 2-4, i.e. revival!

In 1Cor 14 Paul says that if we are prophets or spiritual, we will acknowledge that these are the commandments of God and if we ignore this, God will ignore us. Very serious words indeed. Tragically, most churches, gatherings and their pastors ignore these commands of God and God ignores them. This is a big reason for the apostacy, lukewarmness, worldliness and lack of true Biblical life in many churches.

 

OUR LOCAL GATHERINGS:

If you have decided or would like to follow and serve Jesus Christ with us locally, please contact one of us to inform you where we meet.

We meet Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays at 6pm at flat no …..……. , but will change as God leads. Children are especially welcome.

Eph 6:24  Grace be with all those who love / agapé / sacrificially love our Lord Jesus Christ / Anointed Deliverer in sincerity. Amen. 

Kindest regards and blessings,

Please read these most important verses very carefully and prayerfully. Your eternity depends on how you believe, understand and apply these words. If you do not believe these words, you will not even believe Jesus if He rose from the dead and tell you this. If you do not understand these correctly, you understand nothing spiritually correctly. Paul said he wants to know nothing except these words and he does not want to use many wise words so that the power of these words i.e. Jesus crucified, is not made of no effect.

Put your name into these scriptures. It applies to YOU personally.  Then you will experience the cleansing and delivering power of the word of the cross and of the blood of Jesus. His word will not return empty to Him – if you believe Him.

APPLICATION:

Each one of us has repeatedly despised, rejected, betrayed, denied, grieved, pierced and crucified Jesus with every sin of omission and co-mission. Every time we sin, we kill His life, His will and word in our hearts. Every time we look away from sin and injustice, we deny and betray Him and allow Him to be killed. What we have done and not done to the least, we did to HIM. Therefore, Jesus indeed died BECAUSE OF each one of us. That is why God said we shall surely die if we sin. More so because He came to deliver us from our sins, to crush the head and works of Satan, to set us free indeed, but we have despised and rejected Him with every sin.  We have killed our own God, Creator and Deliverer. We are all doomed because of our sins.

What shall we do?

Zech 12:10-13:9, Acts 2-4, 1Pet 2:24-25 say what we must do. We must look up to Jesus whom we have indeed pierced and killed, we must sorrowfully confess that he bore MY sins in His body and I have indeed killed Him with every sin, we must repent from all sin, make restitution and get baptized into Him. Then He promises us forgiveness, deliverance, cleansing, filling with the Holy Spirit - that we may stop sinning, live holy and righteous lives and wound Him no more. So His blood, which we see and confess has flowed because of our sins, cleanses us from all sin. THEN we shall not die.

HOWEVER, if we continue in our sins and disobedience, we are as Paul said to the Galatians, i.e. we are foolish, stupid , lacking intelligence, unthinking, bewitched, charmed, demon possessed, disobedient to the truth - and we keep on crucifying Jesus in and amongst us!

Without holiness, we shall continue doing this and shall not see God.  Heb 12:14 

 

AMEN!

SELA!

THE WORKINGS OF THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST

 THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST WORKS REMORSE, AFFLICTION, GRIEVING, BITTERNESS, MOURNING, SILENCING, LOATHING because of sin – then FORGIVENESS, CLEANSING, WASHING, PURGING, PURIFICATION, REMEDY FOR DEFILEMENT, HEALING, DELIVERANCE, JUSTIFICATION, SANCTIFICATION, VICTORY AND FINALLY SALVATION.

Read the following Scriptures and note that the blood of the Lamb does all the above.

Lev 16:10 But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the LORD, to make a purging (Hebr. Kaphar = remedy for the defilement, cleansing, purging, putting off, wrongly translated atonement) through / over / upon /with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness. When it is sent away to Azazel in the wilderness, the people will be purified and made right with the Lord (NLT).

Lev 16:20 And when he hath made an end of reconciling the holy place, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat: Lev 16:21 And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness: Lev 16:22 And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities unto a land not inhabited: and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness (to suffer and die a terrible death). Lev 16:29 And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger that sojourneth among you: Lev 16:30 For on that day shall the priest make purging (Hebr. Kaphar = remedy for the defilement, cleansing, purging, putting off, wrongly translated atonement ) for you, to cleanse you, that ye may be clean from all your sins before the LORD. Lev 16:31 It shall be a sabbath of rest unto you, and ye shall afflict your souls, by a statute for ever.

Isa 53:11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by this knowledge of Him shall My Righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities / sins.

Eze 6:9 And they that escape of you shall remember me among the nations whither they shall be carried captives, because I am broken / crushed with their whorish / adulterous heart, which hath departed from me, and with their eyes, which go a whoring after their idols: and they shall loathe themselves for the evils which they have committed in all their abominations.

Zec 12:10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn. Zec 13:1 In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem against sin and uncleanness. Zec 13:2 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered: and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.

Mat 26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed because of / by many for the remission / forgiveness / deliverance of sins.

Act 20:28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

Rom 3:25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation / remedy for the defilement of sin / putting away of sin through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission (Gr. aphesis = forgiveness and deliverance, set free) of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

Rom 5:9 Much more then, being now justified / made righteous by his blood, we shall be delivered from wrath through him.

1Co 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are delivered it is the power of God.

Eph 1:7 In whom we have redemption / deliverance / salvation through his blood, the forgiveness (Gr. aphesis = forgiveness and deliverance, set free) of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

Eph 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. Eph 2:14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; Eph 2:15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; Eph 2:16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:

Col 1:20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven. Col 1:21 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled Col 1:22 In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:

Heb 1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

Heb 9:12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal ransoming / deliverance / redemption for us.

Heb 9:14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

Heb 9:22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. (Gr. aphesis = forgiveness and deliverance, set free)

Heb 10:10 By the which will we are sanctified / made holy through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

Heb 10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified / made holy.

Heb 10:19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, Heb 10:20 By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; Heb 10:22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.

Heb 13:12 Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify / make holy the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.

Heb 13:20-21(sien KJV) Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

1Pe 1:18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed / ransomed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; 1Pe 1:19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

1Pe 2:24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we might die to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

Rev 1:5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, Rev 1:6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

Rev 5:9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed / ransomed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; Rev 5:10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

Rev 7:14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

Rev 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

HOW DO WE FIND FORGIVENESS, CLEANSING, DELIVERANCE, RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HOLINESS?

Is. 53:11 & 1Peter 2:24 say Jesus bore our sins in His body on the tree. It means our sins pierced and crushed Him. We martyred and murdered the Lord Jesus Christ through every sin. 

O, what have you and I not done to Him?

Zech 12:10 says the Holy Spirit of grace now pleads with us to look up to Him whom we have pierced with every sin and to mourn bitterly for what we did to Him. SELA

If we do that, He will open that fountain of His blood against sin and unrighteousness and drive out the idols, false prophets and unclean spirits from our hearts – resulting in FORGIVENESS, CLEANSING, WASHING, PURGING, PURIFICATION, REMEDY FOR DEFILEMENT, HEALING, DELIVERANCE, JUSTIFICATION, SANCTIFICATION, VICTORY, THEN SALVATION.

Brothers and Sisters, see what Jesus did and how far He has gone to convince you of His utmost love and of the terrible evil of your life and the murderous pain He feels every time you sin and choose the liar, thief and murderer above Him! And He is willing to forgive you everything, and to cleanse you and to heal you by His wounds. Through His blood and cross He is now calling you to repent. He is trying to buy you back from the devil for His Father with His own blood!! REPENT NOW with all your heart – and love Him much.

If you continue with your sins and to pierce and crush Him through it, your condemnation to hell fire will be perfectly justified. If you keep on eating of the tree you may not eat of – and so stab Him in the heart – you shall surely die (dying you shall die).

AMEN.
