Doctrines of Demons - Most Christians believe in false Gospel

Following Doctrines are doctrines of Demons:
50 doctrines of demons - see link below.
50 characteristics of pharisees -see link below


1. The devil is operating outside of God´s control
 (Luke 12:5)
But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear Him who, after He has killed, has power to cast into hell; yes, I say to you, fear Him!

2. Faith is believing Jesus died on a cross and was Gods son.
Faith means to trust and follow. Jesus is NOT your savior IF HE is NOT your Lord. If you don´t obey Him He is not your Lord.

 (Mark 7:6-7)
He answered and said to them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written:
This people honors Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me. And IN VAIN THEY WORSHIP Me,Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men

So who do you obey: Your flesh, Satan and demons, or Jesus? You can not have two masters, right? Flesh loves to have a savior but flesh don´t love to have a LORD, flesh want to be a Lord.

3. God is only love and loves everyone.
If you don´t walk in covenant with Him he will send power of darkness over you. So Hi is not ONLY LOVE my friends! This means if you are in rebellion and HE WILL KILL YOU.

 (Psalm 7:11)
God is a just judge,  And God is angry with the wicked every day.

4. Grace is forgiveness of all past present and future sins.

DON´T MIX MERCY and GRACE.
GRACE is to give you power to overcame sin in your life.  GO and sin NO MORE.

5. Teaching obedience is teaching a Works salvation.
If you DON´T Obey YOU are NOT saved. You obey because you are led of Holy Spirit, so if you don´t obey you are not lead by the Holy Spirit, but by demons. You can NOT obey by yourself i.e. your own strength, his means if you don´t obey you need to repent and receive Holy Spirit and then you will obey.

 (1 John 2:4)
He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
 (1 John 3:9)
Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.

What is Legalistic, saved by works? ANSWER: Any other way BUT being lead by the Holy Spirit.
BABYLON Churches teaches works salvation, by all those DEMON Doctrines. They All SAY that they are lead by Holy Spirit, but that is not what they teach they are lairs.

6. Salvation is an event and not a journey.

What is blessings?

A SHINING BLESSING

Even though many Christians freely quote "Aaron's blessing", few understand the true meaning of the words they are saying:

"And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying, On this wise ye shall bless the children of Israel, saying unto them, The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace." (Numbers 6:22-26)

When we are requesting that the Lord "make His Face shine upon" someone (v25), what are we really saying? As we have seen before, beholding God's Face leads to death because His Face emanates God's righteous nature. Therefore, as you stand before the splendor of His righteousness, you are automatically bombarded by His judgments.

The Sun of Righteousness is a Consuming Fire who absolutely devours all temporality and unrighteousness that stands before Him.
Thus, when you are requesting that the Lord "make His Face to shine upon" someone, you are requesting for that person to be bombarded by the rays of God's judgments, the way a person is bombarded by the sun's rays as the sun rises over him or her.

You are requesting that that person be placed in the sometimes unpleasant oven of God's purifying judgments. You are praying for that person to be processed unto perfection so that he or she may become all that God planned for him or her to be.

"Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ"
(1 Peter 1:6-7)

End Times

Hebrews 1:1-2
God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds


 Luke 2:34
Then Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary His mother, “Behold, this Child is destined for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which will be spoken against

 

 

World and Israel ie. Christians and Judah in the end time:


World --- (Micah 7:17) They will lick dust like a snake, like creatures that crawl on the ground. They will come trembling out of their dens they will turn in fear to the LORD our God ...and will be afraid of you.
Christians ---- (Hosea 3:5) Afterward the Israelites... will return and seek the LORD their God and David their king. They will come trembling to the LORD and to his blessings in the last days.
Jews ---- (Jeremiah 50:4) “In those days, at that time,” declares the LORD, “the people of Israel and the people of Judah together will go in tears to seek the LORD their God.


Deceptions of the Last Hour


1 John 2:18  
Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour.

The Lords supper or feast for demons

The Lord's supper

Question
What is the deeper meaning behind meeting in homes and remembering Our Lord Jesus Christ in breaking bread, remembering His Body that was broken for us and His Blood that was shed for us?

...Answer
It's a meal
The act of breaking bread to remember the Lord's death is known in many places as "holy communion" or "the Lord's supper". Traditionally, most congregations around the world perform this act during a Sunday service once a month; some congregations do it more frequently, others less. In the ceremony, small cups of juice along with bread that has been sliced into tiny pieces are passed around the congregation, and each member is to take a tiny piece of bread and one of the small cups of wine (or grape juice). Then, some distinguished member of the congregation proceeds to read a portion of 1 Corinthians 11:23-30, and every one waits for the instruction to place the tiny piece of bread in their mouths and for the instruction to quickly drink down the wine or grape juice. Everything is done in a solemn tone, and everyone feels more spiritual after the act.

The problem with all of this is that the Lord's supper has been turned into a rigid ceremony in which most believers fail to understand God's intended meaning behind the supper. For starters, Scripture never portrays the Lord's supper as the eating of tiny pieces of bread and the drinking of a small cup of wine or juice. In Scripture, it is portrayed as an actual supper, i.e.- an actual meal where people would eat actual food and drink actual wine. The very verses before and after the ones that are traditionally read clearly bear this out:



‎"20When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord’s supper. 21For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken. 22What? have ye not houses to eat and to drin...k in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not." (1 Corinthians 11:20-22)

"33Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another. 34And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come." (1 Corinthians 11:33-34)

Notice that verse 21 speaks of some believers being left hungry and others getting drunk. If the Lord's supper was celebrated by the Primitive Church as it is now, why would Paul speak of people being left "hungry"? No one today goes to church on "Lord's supper Sunday" expecting to satiate his or her hunger. Why? Because everyone knows that all they are going to eat is a tiny piece of bread. The reference to believers "getting drunk" shows that more than a tiny cup of grape juice was being passed around during the Lord's supper. It was a moment when believers "came together" (v33) to eat a formal meal.
"Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon." (John 13:26)
[Notice that the Lord "dipped" a morsel of food and gave it to Judas... Iscariot. This shows that they were eating a formal meal.]

"20Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve. 21And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me." (Matthew 26:20-21)
[Notice that verse 21 says, "As they did eat", meaning that the Lord's supper was not a one-minute intake of a bread fragment but rather a regular meal that took the amount of time that a regular meal would take]

Some might say, "Well, I know this, but it would be impractical nowadays to celebrate the Lord's supper as a formal meal, especially in large congregations". The problem with saying that is fourfold:
Very small congregations also celebrate the Lord's supper with bread fragments and small cups of juice, meaning that they are not doing it out of "practical" concerns.

The "practicality" argument fails to understand the historical roots behind the way the Lord's supper is celebrated today. This way of celebrating communion is derived from the Medieval catholic church's methodologies, and the catholic church is known for its rigid ceremoniousness. Today's way of celebrating communion, therefore, was not inspired by believers who were attentive to the voice of the Holy Spirit but rather by a religious hierarchy that believed in turning everything into a "ceremony". Why? Because orchestrated ceremonies are more "orderly" and look more "pious and reverent" to the natural eye.
The "practicality" argument fails to understand the spiritual reason why the Lord's supper was celebrated as a formal meal during the days of the Primitive Church. This reason is related to the very essence of why the Lord called us to cele...brate the Lord's supper in the first place. When the Lord's supper is turned into the brief and rigid ceremony it is today, much of the essence behind the act is lost. The essence behind the Lord's supper can be understood as we carefully study 1 Corinthians 11:23-34.

The practicality issue can be easily solved by making a small modification to the way the Lord's supper is celebrated today. However, the reason why this small modification is never implemented is related to deep roots of iniquity inside the Church.

In order to understand the spiritual essence behind the Lord's supper, we must first understand two important characteristics in the Primitive Church
<< A time of fellowship in apostolic judgment >>
The Primitive Church possessed a very "interesting" trait, as shown by the following verses:

"And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread,... and in prayers. And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles." (Acts 2:42-43)

The word "doctrine" in verse 42 is a poor translation of the Greek word didache, which literally means "teaching". The word "doctrine" is a loaded term, because it has the connotation of being a rigid set of rules and regulations found in a book or manual that tells people all they cannot do, whereas "teaching" (the original word in the Greek) speaks of a person sharing with others and training them so that they may be perfected and may fulfill all of their potential. The "person" who teaches us is, in essence, the Holy Spirit of God through the Anointing in us:

"But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him" (1 John 2:27)
the apostolic ministry is the ministry most related with the making of judgments. Therefore, the "apostles' doctrine" that verse 42 refers to speaks of teaching rooted in judgments and justice. This explains why "fear came upon every soul" ...(v43). Another time when "fear came upon every believer" is right after God killed Ananias and Sapphira (for telling a half-truth) through the judgments of the apostle Peter:

"8And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much? And she said, Yea, for so much. 9Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out. 10Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband. 11And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things. 12And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; and they were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch." (Acts 5:8-12)

God´s power in warfare - Exchanging truth for a lie

Detecting a Reprobate Mind.

We can depart from the core of our Christian faith even while going through the motions. Because of this, we must question and examine ourselves to determine if we’re still in the faith. Either our faith and love ...
for Christ is alive as we press on to an ever increasing faith while being renewed by the power of Christ, or we are progressively becoming carnal, less Christ-like, and even worse, of a reprobate mind.

...even their mind and conscience is defiled. They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate


...even their mind and conscience is defiled. They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.
...Titus 1:15b-16

What is a reprobate mind?


A reprobate mind is a morally unprincipled person whose mind is set the wrong way. It is a way of thinking that lacks proper judgment, and is a mindset that has lost all fear and regard for the principles of God’s Word, and for that which is right. Although God’s Word tells us to “Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus,” the reprobate-minded person rejects and disallows the mind of Christ because he has cultivated his own mind and conscience which are defiled. The purity of our faith is directly related to the effectiveness of our conscience, and when the conscience is defiled, a man’s deeds become increasingly wicked. Ultimately the individual becomes reprobate unto every good work—worthless, good for nothing, and rejected by God. And although they declare that they know God and maintain their Christian profession, they are in effect abominable to God and are ultimately rejected by Him. 


The Need for Self-Examination

...Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith, prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?
2 Corinthians 13:5

The above Scripture is a call to self-examination. Just as we get physical check-ups to determine our physical health, we need spiritual check-ups to find out if we meet the biblical criteria of one who is in the faith and accepted by God. You should be able to examine the issues of your life from a divine perspective to see whether you’re producing the proper fruit of your faith—unless you’re a reprobate. Prove and evaluate yourself.

Give yourself a spiritual examination by asking yourself a series of questions. Do you manifest the fruit of the Spirit, or the works of the flesh?
Do you have the fear of the Lord—the craving desire to honor, please, and reverence God above every other desire that’s contradictory to the will of God? 
Are you submitted to God and His servants, or have you become increasingly rebellious? Are you spiritually progressive and going from glory to glory? Do you still get convicted of missing the mark? Christ Jesus is in you—unless you fail to meet the test. Either our faith is alive and we’re pressing on to an ever increasing faith and obedience, or the opposite is happening. Either we’re being renewed by God’s divine power and are dying to self daily, or we’re becoming increasingly rebellious and are succumbing to the works of the flesh.

Understand that it is one thing to be spiritually weak, yet repentant and striving for maturity. Look at God’s servant David. David’s repentant heart positioned him for deliverance, and in spite of his failure, God considered him “a man after Mine own heart” (Acts 13:22). A tender heart goes a long way in God’s sight. But if your heart is no longer succulent to God with the intent of obeying and practicing the truth of God’s Word, and if you are no longer producing the fruit of your faith without any level of conviction, then you may have a reprobate mind.


Detecting a Reprobate Mind - Part II
Exchanging Truth for a Lie
...
a reprobate mind is a way of thinking that lacks proper judgment. It is a mindset void of all fear and regard for the principles of God’s Word, and for that which is right. Now let’s see how unchecked passions have the ability to lead you to a desensitized place where the truth of God is exchanged for a lie.

Who changed the truth of God into a lie…
…God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient.

Romans 1:25a, 28b

We exchange the truth of God for a lie when we blatantly resist the revealed will of God. This prolonged and willful resistance of God’s truth sets one up to be turned over by God to a reprobate mind. A man cannot be brought to greater destruction than to be given over by God to fulfill his carnal lusts. What causes a believer who once loved God to exchange the truth of God for a lie? A desensitized heart. A desensitized heart may be the dominant cause of willful disobedience to the revealed will of God. It is cultivated over time and increases in power with each level of defiance and insensitivity to the voice and instruction of God.



The Deception of a Desensitized Heart

But King Solomon [defiantly] loved many foreign women…
They were of the very nations of whom the Lord said to the Israelites, You shall not mingle with them…for surely they will turn away your hearts a...fter their gods. Yet Solomon clung to these in love. He had 700 wives, princesses, and 300 concubines, and his wives turned away his heart from God.
And the Lord was angry with Solomon because his heart was turned from the Lord, the God of Israel, Who had appeared to him twice,...

-----1 Kings 11:1a-3, 9 AMP------

Solomon’s wisdom was no match for the deception of a desensitized heart. In spite of two appearances from God, the above scripture reveals that “Solomon defiantly loved many foreign women.” The voice of his passion overcame the voice of God’s instruction to the point that he ended up with 1,000 wives, many of which were heathen. A desensitized heart is a deceived heart that sets one up to exchange truth for a lie. Why? Because it has been desensitized to the point that it has lost all fear of the Lord—the craving desire to honor, please, and reverence God above every other desire that’s contradictory to the will of God. And in the life of a believer, a desensitized heart has nothing to do with not knowing God’s will. Instead, it has to do with the level of desensitivity allowed in the heart of the believer against the known will of God.


 Detecting a Reprobate Mind - Part III
The Safeguard of Value

How a desensitized heart may be a dominant cause of willful disobedience to the revealed will of God. A desensitized heart has nothing to do with not knowing God’s will, and everyth...ing to do with the level of desensitivity allowed in the heart of the believer against the known will of God. Now let’s see how we can fortify ourselves from falling prey to a desensitized heart through the safeguard of value.

Now just as Jannes and Jambres were hostile to and resisted Moses, so these men also are hostile to and oppose the Truth. They have depraved and distorted minds, and are reprobate and counterfeit and to be rejected as far as the faith is concerned (see 2 Timothy 3:8 Amp)


In the above scripture, the Apostle Paul instructed his son Timothy on how to deal with the reprobates of his church. In a prophetic sense, Paul made an assessment of the spirits which were attacking Timothy’s New Testament church to the on...es that also attacked Moses in the Old Testament. In each case, there was a manifestation of great opposition, hostility, and dishonor against the truth of God and His messengers. To dishonor God’s revealed will and His delegated authority is to disrespect and dishonor God. Such was the case with Jannes and Jambres—believed to be the two Egyptian magicians who withstood Moses. Instead of honoring God’s divine instruction to let Israel go, Jannes and Jambres were hostile to Moses. And just as Jannes and Jambres devalued the will of God spoken through Moses, today’s reprobates devalue God’s revealed truth, and oppose God’s servants.

The Necessity of Value

Why then do you kick [trample upon, treat with contempt] My sacrifice and My offering which I commanded, and honor your sons above Me…?

…I did promise that your house and that of your father [forefather Aaron] should go in and out before Me forever. But now the Lord says, Be it far from Me. For those who honor Me I will honor, and those who despise Me shall be lightly esteemed.

1 Samuel 2:29a-30b AMP

Value is a necessity when it comes to serving God. What you don’t honor you will not value, and what you don’t value, you will eventually mistreat and abuse. In the above scripture, God had a couple of questions for Eli before discarding him from service. God asked, “Why did you honor your sons above Me, and why did you treat My instruction with contempt?” God then gave Eli the explanation for reneging on His promise with the house of Eli, and it was due to the lack of honor for God, and a God instruction: “…For those who honor Me I will honor, and those who despise Me shall be lightly esteemed.” It takes a daily practice of honoring God to make our relationship with Him valuable, and it’s the safeguard of honor placed on our relationship with God that causes us to obey God’s voice, and the voice of His delegated authority.


Protecting the Strength of Your Heart in Warfare

Your heart strength is a major factor to your success in warfare, crisis or attack. Maintaining a strong heart and spirit in warfare is key to your success in battle. When we lose heart in the... midst of our warfare, we create an opening to become easy prey to the enemy’s attack. To lose heart means to loosen and relax in your courage in the battle at hand. And when you lose heart in warfare, you’ve lost the main thing that motivates you to believe for success in your battle. We all have a degree of that motivating thing in us which gives us the hope that one day our pursuit and our warfare will pay off.

Protect Your Zeal in Warfare

The strong spirit of a man sustains him in bodily pain or trouble, but a weak and broken spirit who can raise up or bear?

(see Proverbs 18:14 AMP).


The strong spirit of a man sustains him during pain or trouble, but a weak heart crumbles under attack. Adversity reveals your strength level and the strength of your heart. “If you faint in the day of adversity, your strength is small” (Pr...overbs 24:10). When you faint and quit during warfare, it shows that the strength of your heart is weak. When a believer loses the force that helps him keep believing and trusting in God, they have lost the most important ingredient to winning any warfare. The success to winning any battle and attack is not only dependent upon your weapons, but it is also dependent upon your will to fight and keep fighting. The will is the courage and passion for your battle that has been established in you. And as long as you maintain that passion for warfare, it is difficult for the enemy to defeat you in your fight.

[Therefore beware] brethren, take care, lest there be in any one of you a wicked, unbelieving heart [which refuses to cleave to, trust in, and rely on Him], leading you to turn away and desert or stand aloof from the living God.
- Hebrews 3:12 AMP--

Abraham and the Life of Faith

av Dirk A Schnarr kl. den 19 april 2011 kl. 12:33
ABRAHAM AND THE FAITH THAT BRINGS ABOUT RIGHTEOUSNESS 

Romans 4: 2For if Abraham was justified (established as just by acquittal from guilt) by good works [that he did, then] he has grounds for boasting. But not before God!
3For what does the Scripture say? Abraham believed in (trusted in) God, and it was credited to his account as righteousness (right living and right standing with God).

Galatians 3: 2Let me ask you this one question: Did you receive the [Holy] Spirit as the result of obeying the Law and doing its works, or was it by hearing [the message of the Gospel] and believing [it]? [Was it from observing a law of rituals or from a message of faith?]
3Are you so foolish and so senseless and so silly? Having begun [your new life spiritually] with the [Holy] Spirit, are you now reaching perfection [by dependence] on the flesh?
4Have you suffered so many things and experienced so much all for nothing (to no purpose)--if it really is to no purpose and in vain?
5Then does He Who supplies you with His marvelous [Holy] Spirit and works powerfully and miraculously among you do so on [the grounds of your doing] what the Law demands, or because of your believing in and adhering to and trusting in and relying on the message that you heard?
6Thus Abraham believed in and adhered to and trusted in and relied on God, and it was reckoned and placed to his account and credited as righteousness (as conformity to the divine will in purpose, thought, and action).
7Know and understand that it is [really] the people [who live] by faith who are [the true] sons of Abraham.

The Lord has laid all of this on my heart and I do what I can to convey what He has said to all.  I would like all to pay attention to a few things while reading this article.

I am not speaking of legalism in any sense of the term.  Nor am I speaking of a lack of restraint in any way.  If anyone reads this and begins to assume either extreme, KNOW THIS, you are not hearing the Lord about this subject!

This is a very spiritually understood concept.  Nor is it something that is likely to be heard from any but the most unusual pulpits.  In order to BEGIN to have any kind of true understanding of this topic, we are all going to have to lay down ALL preconceived notions and ideas, all previously held doctrines and understandings. We must come to the place where we no longer trust even ourselves to properly understand what God is telling us.  There is no way for me to explain these things to you, they MUST be revealed by Jesus Christ through the Holy Spirit.  Even though this is true, I am obeying the Lord by writing this in order to encourage ALL to deny themselves, take up their cross expecting to have their self-lives put to death and follow Jesus Christ in the very same kind of life of He lived where we also empty ourselves of everything we are and only do and say what we are told to do and say by the Lord Himself.  If we have any self-originating idea or action, we are NOT walking as Jesus walked. (Remember, Jesus only did and said what Father God told Him to say and do)

We all must remember that Jesus said He would build His Church on REVELATION KNOWLEDGE, not on anything else.  No amount our plans, programs, ideas, or anything else we can come up with will ever bring about what the Lord Himself has said HE would do; He does NOT share His glory with another.

Therefore, if we are unwilling to lay aside and lay down everything that has it’s origin outside of God Himself (and that includes what we THINK the Bible says) then we will never understand what the Faith of Abraham is nor how it operates.  Yes, there will be quite a bit of scripture in this article, but we must be willing to lay aside everything we think we know so that HE might teach us HIS TRUTH, not man’s.  (And yes, I am speaking to myself, for I am no better than anyone else.  WE ALL must lay down EVERYTHING, just as Jesus commanded us.

If we are willing to do this and allow HIM to speak through the scriptures what is written here, then we all may BEGIN to learn how it is that our Lord desires us to live in this day; in the Age of Fullfillment, especially as we enter this last phase before His return.  May the Lord, open our eyes, our ears, our hearts, and our understandings to His Truth alone and cause all things from the enemy to be disregarded and discarded.

Hebrews 11:1NOW FAITH is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses].
6But without faith it is impossible to please and be satisfactory to Him. For whoever would come near to God must [necessarily] believe that God exists and that He is the rewarder of those who earnestly and diligently seek Him [out].

So goes the biblical definition of Faith.  There have been many books written on the subject and I am no scholar to be able to define all the scriptural references that many others have already spoken of.  This is not what the Lord has laid on my heart.  Looking at the title of this paper, we must hear what God has to say regarding faith in the light of how Abraham lived.  We are going to have to try to understand what it is that God saw in Abraham to grant him the favor HE did and thus, on to us, IF we are willing and able to meet those same conditions.

This is not an exhaustive article on Abraham.  I will not be posting all the passages that speak of his life and how he lived before God.  I must assume those reading this are familiar with him so we can move forward to where the Lord is leading us all.

Abraham lived in Ur of the Chaldeans.  After some time, he finally heard God speaking to him.  We are not told how long it was that God had been trying to get his attention.  But we do know that God spoke to Abram (before God changed his name to Abraham) and told him to go to a place that HE would show him on the way.  Abraham believed God and left the rest of his family behind going to some place he had no clue of nor where he would end up.

Abraham DID NOT have a Bible.  ALL he had was the Voice of God.  He believed the Lord.  This means that he adhered to, trusted in, and relied upon Him COMPLETELY!  That is what biblical belief means, he really trusted God at what He said.

After some time of following God’s directions (with a few screw ups) God made a covenant with Abraham and PROMISED him a son.  Abraham was happy about this and set out to make it happen.  After some time, Sarah even got into the act and offered Hagar as a possible mother for the child.  Well, as Abraham helped God, he got Ishmael.  For those who do not know, Ismael is the father of the rest of the Middle Eastern peoples, the Arabs.   How much trouble have the Arabs caused Israel?  Just because Abraham tried to HELP GOD!

It took a number of years before Abraham FINALLY stopped relying on himself and put his total trust in God.   He came to the place where he KNEW that he himself could never produce an heir, that Sarah would never have a baby, UNLESS GOD HIMSELF DID IT!  So, instead of trying to do whatever he could to make it come about, Abraham had a PURE FAITH that produced a son by the Promise of God.

And THAT is the kind of faith we are supposed to have.  Look where it came from.  It did not come by Abraham reading a book or hearing some man talk.  NO!  It came from Abraham himself hearing the Word of the Lord from God Himself; from the very lips of our Lord who IS the Word.
Romans 10: 14But how are people to call upon Him Whom they have not believed [in Whom they have no faith, on Whom they have no reliance]? And how are they to believe in Him [adhere to, trust in, and rely upon Him] of Whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without a preacher?
15And how can men [be expected to] preach unless they are sent? As it is written, How beautiful are the feet of those who bring glad tidings! [How welcome is the coming of those who preach the good news of His good things!]
16But they have not all heeded the Gospel; for Isaiah says, Lord, who has believed (had faith in) what he has heard from us?
17So faith comes by hearing [what is told], and what is heard comes by the preaching [of the message that came from the lips] of Christ (the Messiah Himself).

Do we believe this or are we still listening to what man says thinking that all we have to do is listen to the scriptures?  Do we not understand yet?  What did Jesus Himself say the scriptures are for?
John 5: 37And the Father Who sent Me has Himself testified concerning Me. Not one of you has ever given ear to His voice or seen His form (His face--what He is like). [You have always been deaf to His voice and blind to the vision of Him.]
38And you have not His word (His thought) living in your hearts, because you do not believe and adhere to and trust in and rely on Him Whom He has sent. [That is why you do not keep His message living in you, because you do not believe in the Messenger Whom He has sent.]
39You search and investigate and pore over the Scriptures diligently, because you suppose and trust that you have eternal life through them. And these [very Scriptures] testify about Me!
40And still you are not willing [but refuse] to come to Me, so that you might have life.

The scriptures were given to us to send us to Jesus Christ that they testify of, so when we DO go to HIM, then (and ONLY THEN) will we be able to receive His Everlasting Life!  Notice, I am not putting down the Bible and the scriptures.  I am saying of them the same as Jesus did.  The Bible is a testimony of Jesus Christ and what HE has promised.  But the scriptures themselves are unable to provide anything other than knowledge.  It is for this reason Jesus spoke to the Pharisees in the manner that He did, because they were attempting to make the scriptures EQUAL with God (at least their own understanding of the scriptures).  And I must ask this question.
How is what the Pharisees believed any different than what is commonly taught in Christianity today?

Brothers and Sisters, please listen.  The scriptures do indeed tell us what is available to us IN CHRIST, but they have no more power to make those promises real in our lives than the 10 Commandments have the Power to make a person holy on the inside!  At best, we can comply with the commandments, but we will always find our hearts are defective, just like Paul spoke of in Romans 7.  and we must also remember that Jesus Himself told us all that our righteousness had to exceed the righteousness of the Pharisees.
Matt 5: 20For I tell you, unless your righteousness (your uprightness and your right standing with God) is more than that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

How is this to be possible?  The Pharisees complied externally to every single nuance of the Law.  They were meticulous about it, but Jesus told them their hearts were FAR from the Lord; they were full of iniquity, and to quote Jesus>>>
Matt 23: 25Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, pretenders (hypocrites)! For you clean the outside of the cup and of the plate, but within they are full of extortion (prey, spoil, plunder) and grasping self-indulgence.
26You blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup and of the plate, so that the outside may be clean also.
27Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, pretenders (hypocrites)! For you are like tombs that have been whitewashed, which look beautiful on the outside but inside are full of dead men's bones and everything impure.
28Just so, you also outwardly seem to people to be just and upright but inside you are full of pretense and lawlessness and iniquity.

The Pharisees were making the very same mistake Abraham made at first, but they did not learn from their mistakes.  So now, I must ask us all once more;
 How is what the Pharisees did any different from what is commonly taught in Modern Christianity?

Abraham truly believed GOD Himself not some book. (no offense to the Bible, please) He heard God speak from His own lips and believed the Word He spoke so much so that Abraham ceased trying to accomplish anything for himself but rather had the FAITH that comes from TRULY HEARING the Word of God from the Lips of the Lord, and ceased his striving to accomplish the promise himself and instead BELIEVED GOD would do what HE promised He would do, HIMSELF!

Without Abraham’s help.  All Abraham ended up doing was doing what God told him to do; nothing more and nothing less!  Abraham KNEW he could not produce the promised son himself.  He KNEW Sarah would not ever have a child UNLESS GOD DID IT HIMSELF!  This is why Issac was a child of promise.  God promised and God provided the means for the promise to be fullfilled.  All Abraham has to do was Trust God Absolutely in all things and CEASE trying to HELP God in any way.

It is THIS KIND OF FAITH that pleases God and no other.  Pure faith that totally TRUSTS HIM to accomplish the promises God has promised.  If we do what we can to “help” God, we may produce something, BUT it will always end up being an Ismael, a child of the flesh, a child of bondage.  Only when we totally put our trust in HIM to do what HE has promised He will do and reach out in FAITH to Him to do it because we heard His voice make that promise, ONLY THEN will the TRUE SPIRITUAL PROMISE become a reality in our lives!

Notice Abraham who did not have ANY written record to tell him what to do, who had no history of God working in the lives of those who had gone before.  Abraham was found to have FAITH.  This faith brought forth Righteousness into his life.  This righteousness was not just imputed, but it was IMPARTED!  He actually lived in a right relationship with the Lord.  Abraham believed God and Obeyed what he was told.  When he came to a place in his walk where he discovered he could not accomplish what was demanded of him by God, he trusted that God would accomplish it Himself in Abraham’s life.  This is how Issac came to be.  Abraham KNEW he was beyond an age where he could produce a child; Sarah had never had a child and she was also well past the time when she could ever have a child by natural means.

Then faith in God’s SPOKEN WORD to him, came into being.  As Abraham stopped relying on himself completely and only relied upon God to accomplish His promise, Sarah got pregnant!  This is why Isaac is called the child of promise, for God promised him to Abraham and then God caused Sarah to get pregnant when they both were only trusting in God to provide the son.  They KNEW for a fact that they could NEVER do this, only God was able.

And now we come to today.

Philippians 3:9 And that I may [actually] be found and known as in Him, not having any [self-achieved] righteousness that can be called my own, based on my obedience to the Law's demands (ritualistic uprightness and supposed right standing with God thus acquired), but possessing that [genuine righteousness] which comes through faith in Christ (the Anointed One), the [truly] right standing with God, which comes from God by [saving] faith.

2 Timothy 3:15 And how from your childhood you have had a knowledge of and been acquainted with the sacred Writings, which are able to instruct you and give you the understanding for salvation which comes through faith in Christ Jesus [through the leaning of the entire human personality on God in Christ Jesus in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness].

Notice what Paul tells us.  We are not to have any sort of righteousness that comes from our keeping the Law.  BUT we are to be righteous.  This righteousness does NOT happen due to our obedience to His Law.  This righteousness comes by Faith in Christ Jesus ALONE!  We receive an IMPARTED RIGHTEOUSNESS that comes only by faith, never by adherance to a command.  Please do not think I am speaking of anarchy or of our living any way we desire and God only seeing good in us.  That is NOT what I speak of.

I am speaking of a REAL RIGHTEOUSNESS that is no different than what God demands, but it comes as a result of our totally trusting Jesus Christ to live His life through us.
Galatians 2: 20I have been crucified with Christ [in Him I have shared His crucifixion]; it is no longer I who live, but Christ (the Messiah) lives in me; and the life I now live in the body I live by faith in (by adherence to and reliance on and complete trust in) the Son of God, Who loved me and gave Himself up for me.
21[Therefore, I do not treat God's gracious gift as something of minor importance and defeat its very purpose]; I do not set aside and invalidate and frustrate and nullify the grace (unmerited favor) of God. For if justification (righteousness, acquittal from guilt) comes through [observing the ritual of] the Law, then Christ (the Messiah) died groundlessly and to no purpose and in vain. [His death was then wholly superfluous.]

This righteousness does not come from our keeping the Law, from our striving to be good, from any form of US DOING ANYTHING.  No, it comes by faith alone in Christ Jesus.

Eph 4:21  Assuming that you have really heard Him and been taught by Him, as [all] Truth is in Jesus [embodied and personified in Him],
Eph 4:22  Strip yourselves of your former nature [put off and discard your old unrenewed self] which characterized your previous manner of life and becomes corrupt through lusts and desires that spring from delusion;
Eph 4:23  And be constantly renewed in the spirit of your mind [having a fresh mental and spiritual attitude],
Eph 4:24  And put on the new nature (the regenerate self) created in God's image, [Godlike] in true righteousness and holiness.

Now I ask you, how do you imagine that anyone could strive to be as truly righteous as Jesus was while He lived on this earth?  Yet, that is what is required of us and it is NOT something that God sees in us because of Jesus.  It is NOT imputed righteousness but a TRUE Righteousness and True Holiness.  This is exactly what God promised in Ezekiel.

Eze 36:25  Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and you shall be clean from all your uncleanness; and from all your idols will I cleanse you.
Eze 36:26  A new heart will I give you and a new spirit will I put within you, and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.
Eze 36:27  And I will put my Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you shall heed My ordinances and do them.
Eze 36:28  And you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and you shall be My people, and I will be your God.

Look at those verses once more.  Compare them to Ephesians 4 and you will see the very same thing.  God will change our nature to be JUST LIKE JESUS and HE will cause us to walk in His statutes and ordinances and DO THEM!  He will do it for us!  Our nature will be such that our natural reaction will be exactly the same as Jesus’ was in every situation.  But this happens by FAITH, not by our triving to make ourselves better, not by trying to obey the commandments, not by controlling our behavior.  We will NOT be living in Romans 7, that is where most of us live right now, knowing what God desires and finding out that deep inside of us lies our heart that is not only deceitful, but it is depraved.

However, IF we truly believe our Lord can and will change this and we truly allow HIM to put to death that wrong heart, then receive the NEW NATURE, the NEW MAN that is created to be like GOD in True Righteousness and Holiness, and we WILL walk JUST LIKE JESUS, without having to force ourselves, without trying to control those inner desires and lusts.  It will naturally flow out of our inner being just like Jesus said when He spoke of the Rivers of Living Water that will NEVER run dry!  And we will never thirst again!

GALATIANS 3: 10And all who depend on the Law [who are seeking to be justified by obedience to the Law of rituals] are under a curse and doomed to disappointment and destruction, for it is written in the Scriptures, Cursed (accursed, devoted to destruction, doomed to eternal punishment) be everyone who does not continue to abide (live and remain) by all the precepts and commands written in the Book of the Law and to practice them.
11Now it is evident that no person is justified (declared righteous and brought into right standing with God) through the Law, for the Scripture says, The man in right standing with God [the just, the righteous] shall live by and out of faith and he who through and by faith is declared righteous and in right standing with God shall live.
12But the Law does not rest on faith [does not require faith, has nothing to do with faith], for it itself says, He who does them [the things prescribed by the Law] shall live by them [not by faith].
13Christ purchased our freedom [redeeming us] from the curse (doom) of the Law [and its condemnation] by [Himself] becoming a curse for us, for it is written [in the Scriptures], Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree (is crucified);
14To the end that through [their receiving] Christ Jesus, the blessing [promised] to Abraham might come upon the Gentiles, so that we through faith might [all] receive [the realization of] the promise of the [Holy] Spirit.

Please, do not react to this message.  Stop trying to figure it all out.  Do not expect the natural human mind, our normal human reasoning to fathom all of this, especially all at once for the first time.  Can we trust our Lord?  If we go to Him and ask Him if this be so, will He not tell us HIS TRUTH?  But we must go to Him without ANY preconceived notion or idea.  We must lay down all of our understandings, ideas, doctrines, thoughts, teachings, RIGHTS, pride, studies, everything we hold dear and be willing for the Lord to correct us in all of these things.
As long as we are the ones who decide what is right and wrong, what is good or evil, we are acting as God in our lives, lifting up our reasoning and understanding above God Himself.  If we come to Him as little children, willing to be taught, willing to be corrected, asking Him what HE says and then TRULY BELIEVING HIM, taking HIM at His word, HE will tell us His truth.
But we must remember, we cannot have ANY preconceived idea of the outcome.  If HE tells us that we are wrong and what I have presented is the TRUTH, then we MUST lay down and discard our old ways and ideas, taking up what HE teaches us as HIS ABSOLUTE TRUTH!  Are we truly willing to humble ourselves in this manner?  Will we really be as little children KNOWING we do not have a clue and only our Loving Father knows THE TRUTH and HE will tells us as long as we do not cling to what we have always hung onto?  Will we really do this?
I warn you, it is not easy.  Oh, it is quite simple, but just because it is simple does NOT make it easy.  We so love to be in control, to determine for ourselves what is right and wrong.  But that is the very same sin Adam and Eve committed in the Garden.  God did not want that for them and HE does not want that for us.  As long as we continue to eat from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, HE will not let us eat from the Tree of Life.
Dear brothers and sister, I beg of you, do not allow pride, bad feelings, feelings of condemnation, being judged, or any other negative feeling deter you from laying everything DOWN and allowing our Lord Jesus Christ to teach you by the Holy Spirit.  He will do so, but NOT if you are already full of your own ideas.
I can only do what I know to do to present this truth to you.  Abraham understood and finally, after many years was able to KNOW he could not help God at all and then put his absolute Trust in the One who made the promise in the first place.
We too are in a similar circumstance.  We have relied on ourselves to determine what is right and wrong for many years.  Even though we may have actually used the teachings in the Bible to do so, it was our own ideas of what the scriptures meant that we were relying on.  We were leaning on our own understanding.
We must move beyond human understanding and move on out into Revelation Knowledge.  This is KNOWING beyond the ability to speak or understand as Paul spoke of in Ephesians.  It is the Revelation Knowledge that Jesus spoke to Peter about when Father God revealed to Peter that Jesus was the Christ, the Messiah.  That is the kind of knowledge Jesus builds His Church on, NOT on the kind of education we get from school, by studying and memorizing various passages of the Bible.
The only way to prove this to yourself is to do as I have stated; lay ALL things down and do not allow them to influence you.  Trust GOD to teach you HIS TRUTH.
I pray that all who read this would truly give their lives including their RIGHTS and ability to decide for themselves what is right and wrong DOWN and become as little children, allowing our wonderful Father in Heaven to lead and guide us by His Holy Spirit.  It is the ONLY WAY we will be safe.  It is the ONLY WAY to TRULY know His Truth and to have the Faith of our Lord Jesus Christ; the faith of Abraham.

I will put on you no other burden

Hi my beloved brothers and sisters, I felt lead by the Holy Spirit to tell you following, FOCUS on words in CAPITAL.

(Revelation 2:18)
 “And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write, ‘These things says the Son of God, who has eyes like a flame of fire, and His feet like fine brass: “I know your works, love, service, faith, and your patience; and as for your works, the last are more than the first. Nevertheless I have a few things against you, because you allow that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, to teach and seduce My servants to commit sexual immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols. And I gave her time to repent of her sexual immorality, and she did not repent.Indeed I will cast her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of their deeds.  I will kill her children with death, and all the churches shall know that I am He who searches the minds and hearts. And I will give to each one of you according to your works.


“Now to you I say, and to the rest in Thyatira, AS MANY AS DO NOT HAVE THIS DOCTRINE, who have NOT KNOWN THE DEPTHS of SATAN, as they say, I WILL PUT ON YOU NO OTHER BURDEN. 


But hold fast what you have till I come. And he who overcomes, and keeps My works until the end, to him I will give power over the nations ‘ He shall rule them with a rod of iron, They shall be dashed to pieces like the potter’s vessels’ as I also have received from My Father, and I will give him the morning star. “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.


To leave Babylon doesn't necessary mean that you must physicaly leave a church, but you must leave their doctrines and begin to obey Jesus and his teachings. All other doctrines than the Gospel of Jesus are man-made.We must search for the real truth, God has promised that those who search will find, but it must be a search for truth no matter what it is. Many search for some thing that will justify their preconceived belief, this leads to deception.


Don't repeat other men's doctrines, let the Holy Spirit lead you. If you can't hear the Holy Spirit then pray and pray and pray until you can. It is better to die praying to the real God than to follow doctrines of men. Remember the woman who said to Jesus that even the dogs get some of the crumbs from the table, and Jesus then healed her daughter according to her desire because of her faith. She was persistent.

What is the difference between faith and hope

==> We should be like Abraham when all hope seems to be lost he still hoped.
(Romans 4:18)
who, CONTRARY to hope, in hope believed, so that he became the father of many nations, according to what was spoken, “So shall your descendants be.

==>Holy Spirit gives us hope (and not some strange visions)
 (Romans 15:13)
Now may the God of hope FILL YOU with all JOY and PEACE in believing, that you may abound in hope by the POWER OF THE Holy Spirit.

==> Gospel will be preached to every creature in some way.
 (Colossians 1:23)
if indeed you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which was preached to EVERY creature under heaven

==> Faiths shows by work, love shows by labor and hope by patience. Father speaks to us with EVERY WORD in His book.
 (1 Thessalonians 1:3)
remembering without ceasing your WORK of faith, LABOR of love, and PATIENCE of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the sight of our God and Father

==> God says here that Faith AND Love will protect you. But hope is for salvation and this means no one is saved before the end. But hope will protect your mind to stay clear from demonic influences and that is the Helmet.
 (1 Thessalonians 5:8)
But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the BREASTPLATE of faith and love, and as a HELMET the hope of salvation.

==> If you trust in LIVING God you will both labor and suffer but especially YOU as believer in living God will be saved. I interpret living God as "Do not rely on men, organizations or material things" You will be especially blessed WITH peace and joy (not material things or health).
(1 Timothy 4:10)
For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of ALL men, ESPECIALLY of those who believe.

==> Jesus was raised from the dead so that you can have faith and hope
(1 Peter 1:21)
who through Him believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

==> When Faith gets week and when hope is fading then Love will not fail and love will bring you back to faith and hope.
 (1 Corinthians 13:13)
And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

My conclusion:
Faith shows by work and hope by patience and this is why there is so many demons to disturb our patience because it is directly connected to Faith.
An we all know who wants us to lose our Faith.
