For the truth's sake which abides in us…and it shall be with us forever...2 John 1:2…

 

The Spirit of the Evil people are deceivers and Antichrists…

And now I beseech (I beg) you, lady, not as though I wrote to you a new commandment, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another. And this is love, that we should walk after His commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it. For many deceivers are gone forth into the world, even they that confess not that Jesus Christ cometh in the flesh (His death, burial, and resurrection). This is the deceiver and the antichrist...2 John 1:5-7… Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the vainglory (the self) of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abides forever...1 John 2:15-17…For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments: and His commandments are not grievous. For whatsoever is begotten (born) of God overcomes the world: and this is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. And who is he that overcomes the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God...1 John 5:3-5?

 

Do you believe Jesus Christ came in the flesh…Jesus died on the cross and was raised from the dead three days later? Yes or no?

 

They…those who do not believe the facts of Jesus dying and being raised from the dead…are antichrist spirits and deceiving spirits. Their authority is not from our Creator…there are many religions and people who do not believe Jesus died on the cross and was raised from the dead. Such as the current Jewish religion…Hindus…Muslims…those who believe in their ancestors…satanic religions…etc. You should not trust anyone with spiritual advice unless they indeed confess Jesus died and rose from the dead.

 

The Good news of Jesus Christ death burial and resurrection…

I tell you the truth…Jesus the Christ from the town of Nazareth in Israel of His day…died on the cross after being scourged…then rose three days later. Jesus Christ never broke one of the Ten Commandments…which was the minimum requirements for any Jew born into the tribe of Judah among men. Jesus died and was raised having never broke one of the Ten Commandments. Jesus died so you could never choose to do an evil or wrong thing…or as the Bible calls it a sin.

 

Jesus said if you follow Him then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free (John 8:32). Jesus said if you follow Him then you will never hunger and thirst (John 6:35). Jesus said as it is written… But if God doth so clothes the grass of the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven, shall He not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Be not therefore anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? For after all these things do the Gentiles (unbelievers…non-Christians in today terms) seek; for your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things. But seek you first His kingdom, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Be not therefore anxious for the morrow: for the morrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof...Matthew 6:30-34.

 

Jesus said you will not hunger and thirst…you will know the truth needed for your soul to free from obeying anything not God…Jesus said do not even worry about tomorrow and to seek first the kingdom of God (Heaven). Do you want to go to Heaven where there is eternal life not eternal destruction? Yes or no?

 

Jesus said… Come unto me, all ye that labor (work) and are heavy laden (burdened), and I will give you rest. Take my yoke (His teaching of truth and obedience to the truth) upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek (obedient) and lowly in heart (humble) and you shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light...Matthew 11:28-30.

 

Jesus will never you ask you to do a wrong or evil thing…Jesus will reveal the truth to you so you can do right by your Creator…Jesus as in obedience to the truth will make sure you do not hunger and thirst…will you allow Jesus to teach or reveal the truth to you so you can know the truth that sets your soul free from evil? Yes or no?

 

Jesus said…as it is written…And afterward he was manifested unto the eleven themselves as they sat at meat; and he upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them that had seen him after he was risen (after His resurrection from the dead to His 11 disciples). And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieves (chooses to ignore His death, burial, and resurrection or to dis obey the truth) shall be condemned…And these signs shall accompany them that believe: in my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall in no wise hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover….So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken unto them, was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word by the signs that followed. Amen. (Mark 16:14-20) Will you be baptized…yes or no? Have you been baptized in obedience to Jesus…yes or no?

 

There is a day in which God will Judge the world and destroy the current Heavens and Earth…

but the heavens that now are, and the earth, by the same word have been stored up for fire, being reserved against the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men. But forget not this one thing, beloved, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some count slackness; but is longsuffering to you-ward, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall be dissolved with fervent heat, and the earth and the works that are therein shall be burned up...2 Peter 3:7-10…and to you that are afflicted rest with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with the angels of his power in flaming fire, rendering vengeance to them that know not God, and to them that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus: who shall suffer punishment, even eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his might,...2 Thessalonians 1:7-9…

 

The Prophecy of the New Heaven and Earth and City…

And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth are passed away; and the sea is no more. And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of the throne saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He shall dwell with them, and they shall be His peoples, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God: and He shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and death shall be no more; neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain, any more: the first things are passed away...Revelation 21:1-4

And He that sits on the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And He saith, Write: for these words are faithful and true. And He said unto me, They are come to pass. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely...Revelation 21:5-6…Do you want free waters of life…yes or no?

 

…He that overcomes shall inherit these things (The Great Tribulation…and the hour of temptation which comes upon the whole world)…; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. But for the fearful (those scared to confess faith in Jesus through obedience), and unbelieving (those who choose not to believe the facts…the antichrists), and abominable (those who believe but will not be cleansed), and murderers, and fornicators (those who have sex outside of marriage), and sorcerers (magicians), and idolaters (those who worship anything other than God), and all liars, their part shall be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone; which is the second death....Revelation 21:7-8

 

And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And he that heareth, let him say, Come. And he that is athirst, let him come: he that will, let him take the water of life freely…...Revelation 22:17.

 

Prayer

Father please forgive our trespasses against you in our hearts, minds, souls, spirits and even in our strength…please meet our souls deepest needs…so we may prosper and be in health as our soul prospers…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Do you have love for another soul…

Yes or no?

Do you have ears to hear…the truth from God…

 

Now there went with Him great multitudes (many people) and He (Jesus) turned, and said unto them…

…If any man comes unto Me, and hates not his own father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple…(Luke 14:25-26)

(If any soul…does not hate every other soul which does not abide in Jesus…then Jesus will not adopt him as a disciple, by revealing a greater or more important truth for his soul to prosper and grow in Christ.)

Jesus said as it is written…Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth consume, and where thieves do not break through nor steal…

(How do you obtain treasure in Heaven?)... for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. The lamp of the body (flesh) is the eye (the lust of the eyes needs to be Holy not of the world) if therefore Your eye be single (visioning the Holy treasure), your whole body shall be full of light (Jesus also said…He is the Light of the world…it will be full of Jesus vision for you and your life). But if your eye be evil, your whole body shall be full of darkness. (evil consists of three things…the lust of the flesh…what the body craves…the lust of the eyes…coveting and envy wanting what God has given you…and the pride of life…I am better than other people) If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is the darkness! (each religion has some form of godliness to counterfeit the Holy…if those counterfeit blessing are not from the Holy One then you are spreading evil not God’s will)

…No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon (everything not God which most consider the love of money being the root of evil…because money can get most people the lust of the flesh…lust of the eyes…and allows people to assume they are better than the poor) (Mat 6:19-24 ASV)

Question to ask or check your heart…Do you despise having to give money to God when you give to the poor? Or Do you hold to giving to the poor because Jesus is the reason you have money?

 

Question to ask or check your heart…Do you hate to give money to the poor or do you love the opportunity to share what God has given you?

 

As it is written Jesus said…Whosoever does not bear his own cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple. (Luke 14:27)

 

…So therefore whosoever he be of you that renounce not all that he has, he cannot be my disciple. (we essentially have nothing but what God has given us…we did not control the parents we were born into either rich or poor…we do not control the circumstances we have been thrown into…who can control his own health or determine his own parents?

…Salt therefore is good: but if even the salt has already lost its savor, wherewith shall it be seasoned? (salt is preservative…an influencer of taste…when you are thrown into troubled waters…do you influence the situation or do you preserve God’s will with the good news of Jesus and or prayer? Or do learn how to walk on the trouble seas like Peter and Jesus...salt which has not saving influence or taste?) It is fit neither for the land nor for the dunghill: men cast it out. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. (Luk 14:33-35 ASV)

 

Are you the salt for Jesus…can you be His disciple?

Have you been baptized for Jesus…yes or no?

Will you be baptized for Jesus…yes or no?

Will you surrender all by renouncing everyone including your own life and live for Jesus?

 

Prayer

Father who is in Heaven…please save us from the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the pride in life and possessions or positions in life…and meet our deepest needs…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Jesus of Nazareth said, as it is written in Matthew 9:12-13, “But when Jesus heard this, He said, "It is not those who are healthy who need a physician, but those who are sick.

Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.”

Jesus of Nazareth said these words as it is written, John 3:3-5, “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

Yes or No?


Do you want to be saved and go to heaven?

Yes or No?


What do you think is Jesus of Nazareth’s will for you to do today?

Jesus of Nazareth said these words as it is written, Mat 11:28-30, “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls . For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."

Yes or No?


Jesus of Nazareth said these words as it is written, Mat 6:30-34, “But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you? You of little faith! Do not worry then, saying, ‘What will we eat?' or ‘What will we drink?' or ‘What will we wear for clothing?' For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. "So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
