Effeminate Christianity
Proverbs 31:3 KJV
Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.
1 Corinthians 6:9
Young’s Literal Translation
Have ye not known that the unrighteous the reign of God shall not inherit? Be not led astray; neither whoremongers, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor sodomites.
The EROS type of love in the Greek: is used in the contexts as; Christ gives of himself to his bride. This wording represents the deeply personal union, which Christ has with His “Actual Ecclesia alone”.
Holy Huddles Forever
Published on Feb 24, 2015
No concept of sanctification or of the wickedness of humans naturally in what we call churches. They are enemies of the Cross of Christ and specifically deny Him.
Manipulation is as witchcraft, and Bible based witchcraft is the most powerful! This is why the “Babylonian Church System”, (Rev 17 & 18) is drunk on the blood of the Saints.
Absent from the Body, present with “Our” Lord.
We are confident I Say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
2 Corinthians 5:8 / (2 COR. 5:6-8)
The reason Jesus Christ, was with me in death – is because he has always been with me within my spirit. I had not become “diverted to another gospel”, (spiritually) in rebellion against him, (which is as witchcraft).
Using the Bible “independent of following the Lord”, in spirit and in truth, is the spiritual trick of an Antichrist, an enemy of the cross. This is what religion does, concerning the things of God; and is not with him, nor dependent upon him; who is Fully Able to deliver us as over comers of the world.
Are you confident in Him, who is within those who are His? Or are you dependent on something else; namely systematic theologies – which will “kill one’s spiritual confidence” that you can walk and function in Christ Jesus, alone as his disciple…
Follow, or get out of the way!
The Lord God of Israel cares about his people; which he has foreknown, and grafted into himself, by ‘Jesus Christ’ on the cross; before the foundations of the earth.
The great “I AM” works his entire will on earth towards His ends, and His people; who are SPIRITUAL Israel. (*In those that have been given a heart towards Him.)
To put it crudely (contrary to popular beliefs); He doesn’t give a hang, about the wicked! He uses all circumstances, towards His sovereign will, and ends alone.
If he decides to grace someone “with” worldly status, riches, power, even life itself; that is really all up to him. The problems occur when men want to “play God” in independence of his leading. It is they, who want to decide who is graced, and who is not.
Even Bible based Evangelism (Apologetics) for and about the Lord, towards the world; is but man’s attempt to try and “convert” the world (wicked) towards salvation – (as if that were possible).
Vulcan Mind Meld
As man has not the power to do a “Vulcan mind meld” and give what they have been graced by – into another; despite a library of knowledge, concerning doctrines, or proper theology, or even by having a silver tong, in attempting to convert lives unto the Lord.
The LOST; will indeed come to the Lord Jesus Christ at some point; as He (the Father) has engineered it. Anyone who walks, independent of the spiritual life, which they have received by the grace of God alone in salvation; must continue with a heart towards the Lord, or risk being cut off and burnt. This is not a matter of making mistakes, or having glitches in the flesh, but is rather a matter, in having a heart which is continually repentant and in renewal (known as sanctification); not doing legalisms and ceremonies towards our Lord, in hopes of being found acceptable. The Lord wants obedience, not sacrifice – who is Christ alone! Period: end of story, as we say here in the U.S.
Yet it is Satan, who tries to counterfeit this truth of God, in his “love for the world” and his people; “the wicked”. This is a two-pronged attack, in that he is able to subvert the truth of God to the world; and to try and cause the Lord’s actual Ecclesia to stumble by moving independent of God, in Christ.
Who are you; oh man, to ask the Lord God to prove himself to you?
It is written in Romans 1: 20 > For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: …
All men know there is a God, yet they deny him in their lives, as they actually hate Him at their core, and do not wish to be constrained. So the wicked are all without excuse: as is an atheist or agnostic as they are still the same animal to God. The wicked and the one who is of an “apostate spirit” (broad roader) – the ones who started with Christ, but became diverted: will all end up in the lake of fire together. So, we who know Him, and have been graced with the “gift of salvation from sin”; must push into the Kingdom of God, (that is within us, Jesus taught) or take the “chance” of being cut off and burnt, with the bulk of humanity.
Even Christ himself was tempted to act independently of God the Father; remember when Satan told Christ in, Matthew 4: 6 > saying to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down; for it is written, ‘He will command his angels concerning you,’ and ‘On their hands they will bear you up, so that you will not dash your foot against a stone.'” 7 > Jesus said to him, “Again it is written, ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.'”
If the Enemy can get a disciple to “focus” on the world, instead of our Father who art in heaven; he can effectively kill our spiritual life in Christ. This is our choice to make – will we follow our Lord or not?
Most will never even have the chance to walk in the Lord, so don’t throw your chance away for another Gospel.
Push in and be sanctified with Christ daily, run the good race and finish. Fight the good fight, and having started with Christ, don’t allow oneself to become a cast away for the cares of this world!
Move in the Light
“Vessels of Light for Christ” We are the sons of God, IF we move in the spirit of God. Christ in us is the Light of the world; not a look-alike. We who have been born again, must remain in Him; and not compromise with the truth, who is Christ in us, the “hope” of Glory.
Degradation or Evolution of Humanity / Progressive’s are Regressive
Degradation or Evolution of Humanity; are the two world viewpoints.
My explanation of the decline of the world, and the new dark ages we are in.
This is just an overview, in how the people of the world think today; and why they are at odds with the past cultural divisions, and peoples. Specifically, when sighting the United States, and Europe.
WARNING: Most of humanity has no spiritual enlightenment, and their element is spiritual darkness, as they have not been given light to see. We who walk in the light, have not the power to make the blind see.
Be aware brethren, we simply hand over the world, and its people to our Lord in prayer. If you do not – this has the spiritual potential, to destroy our communion with the Lord.
The Lord God of Israel, is still in command and control of the earth, and has not been dethroned. He is going to burn it all by fire shortly; and we will only be held to account, in what we were directed to do as His disciple, and nothing more…
Christians in the closet?
Well, my appologies to the brethren; it took me six months to discover most of my audio links were bad… So I’m celebrating fixing this problem by launching a repost, of one which was pointed out to me, but must have thought it spam… Oh , boy…

Dogs and Pigs in White Raiment
Mathew 7:6 “Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before swine, or they will trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.
This is a description of those in darkness; they hate light in their hearts which are filled with wickedness, so they turn and attack the child of God, who has shared spiritual light/truth.
Do you think this passage is addressing only the outwardly wicked? Think again, the worst enemies are those who adorn themselves in white raiment, (as to be seen as) fit for the Bridegroom, but are inwardly ravenous wolves with vermin, stalking the weakest sheep!

What’s IN you….
Published on Dec 1, 2014
It ain’t about doctrines and chuuurrccchhh that is for sure.
Out of respect, I have held off for over a month in posting this video.
All I ever see in most “Christian videos” is Bible doctrine, done in natural understanding. That type of thing is a dime a dozen; yet this man (my brother) exemplifies ones who’s flesh has been handed over for execution in Christ.
This is the fruit which Jesus was speaking about in Luke chapter 8.
This brother has helped me to actually see and understand the spiritual workings of our Lord.
I have had over 40 years of Bible instruction; yet it is “that life in Christ” which I crave; and it is only a true Elder, and teacher “IN” the Lord, who is able to deliver such truth, and not just academia like most so-called ministerial works are of.
Here is my comment on the YOU TUBE video:
Amen brother, well spoken indeed! Like JOB you were tested yesterday; and although I was desperate to be of assistance, I was greatly limited in doing so. Yet while witnessing your event; I was greatly benefited in my understanding, by the rare window which was opened, into your Christ like character of your soul!
You sang praises to our Lord, and repeated that “God is in control”, while in the very midst of your attack!
Frantically, I attempted to communicate with you, but you just smiled ever so joyously, and with an overwhelming sense of peace, in witnessing just who was within you – our Lord Jesus Christ. That type of physical testing, is not for the squeamish to see, but it does give a big black eye to the enemy, who would love to destroy our testimony and us. I am ever so grateful to be able to call you my brother and friend. May the Lord bless and keep you always, and forever.

How I see it…
I get tired of the leftists’ “phobia” label. It is as if they are saying to those who don’t hold their values; “you poor little child, you just don’t understand!”
When in actuality, I think it is them who lack understanding.
They refuse to understand that an enemy is to be called an enemy; in the strongest possible terms one can muster.
They refuse to understand that perversion is unacceptable to decency, and needs to be called what it is.
They refuse to recognize any thinking or culture which runs counter to their collective vision of a unified world order.
It is insulting and offensive, to those who I regard as clear thinking Americans – who refuse to accept their “anything goes” humanistic-pluralistic ideology, and will call a spade a spade…
Academia is used by leftists, to “re-educate” the masses to their particular viewpoints; and even our language itself; is reinvented or perverted in an effort to control people’s thinking.
For over a Millennium the tried and tested fabric of the west has developed. Yet in just a couple of generations, the elitist eggheads of the so-called progressive movement want to destroy this fabric.
This is degeneracy, not evolution, and I for one am quite sick of it!!!
Bible Balance
Proverbs 9:8 Do not reprove a scoffer, or he will hate you, Reprove a wise man and he will love you.
2 Timothy 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
Equality and Unity – really?
We hear allot today about God being love, yet he is also without sin, in perfect righteousness. No one comes to the Father without being found in Christ, the only mediator between God and man. The “love of God” (Agape in the Greek) was the action of sending Jesus Christ to die on a cross for the sake of all those who would believe on him.
The (natural) law has NOT been done away with, but made complete in the Lord Jesus Christ, because of the love of God in providing a redeemer, to those who are would be follow of him, in spirit and in truth, that they might be saved ultimately, having started with him.
The only thing acceptable to God the Father is to be crucified (put to death) in Christ: of the old man, known as sanctification unto new life. An actual follower of Christ in spirit and in truth, can and will identify (Biblical) truth, and will be corrected by it. Whereas, someone who is in rebellion against God; will not. This is the fruit, in which the Bible speaks about, and not legalisms.
The Lord-God is the owner of heaven and earth; the architect of everything and every event within the creation. He is the one who decides in how, whom, and what he will do his work; and the extent of his grace for his purposes alone.
Liberation theology, or any other social gospel, is simply “null and void” to the Lord, as he will bless whom he chooses, when he chooses – or not. It is crucial for men , to realize just who God is, (their owner) and to follow him alone, rather than to dictate policy towards him, by religion or demand! (May his will be done, on earth as it is in heaven).
The ordinances of God cannot be compromised or soiled, just to make the sinner “feel better” about their deprivation, and rebellion (independence) against God. God’s ordinances such as the creation order, (men, women and children) has not been done away with, just because of a flip of the calendar, nor by social engineering, nor by the “attempted normalization” of those laws changed by legislation. An example of this is a women or child, in a position of authority over men: (especially spiritually) within specific gifting’s or positions.
The “equality” of women to men, and then going about celebrating the differences of “pagan cultures and peoples” , (as in Babylon) are satanic, and an abomination to God, and his order. Western Governments today have placed themselves above God; and the people they are supposed to serve, in an attempt to “meld everything and everyone together” (globally) in social unity.
(Isaiah 3:4) “I will make mere youths their officials; children will rule over them.” (Isaiah 3: 12) As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths. (Isaiah 9:12) The Syrians before, and the Philistines behind; and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
This is akin to what occurred in the Tower of Babel in the story of Genesis; along with the rebuilding of Babylon in the book of Revelation.
Division is God’s way with man.
Romans 9:13-26
| 9:13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. |
| 9:14 What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid. |
| 9:15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. |
| 9:16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy. |
| 9:17 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth. |
| 9:18 Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth. |
| 9:19 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will? |
| 9:20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? |
| 9:21 Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour? |
| 9:22 What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much long-suffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction: |
| 9:23 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory, |
| 9:24 Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles? |
| 9:25 As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved. |
| 9:26 And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God. |

Civil War In The UK – Soon
This post would hold true for most any “western civilized culture”, to include the U.S., despite the fact we were considered a “biracial” country; until recently flooded by different regions, languages and “cultural diversities”.
Once the money, industry, normality of creature comforts, and entertainment are destroyed; along with a the lack of food, fuel, and clothing. Individuals feeling the pinch, will feel resentment towards the civil authorities in government, which they “perceive to be at fault” for the economic collapse and turmoil. These precepts and resentments, coupled with lawlessness will fuel an inferno of hate, and violence, unlike that which has not been seen in centuries. This civil unrest or war, will be directed against those who “allowed it to get so bad” – and from different viewpoints no less, whether they be right or wrong in their analysis.
It is my personal opinion, that once you replace the principles that the Lord God has ordained for prosperous living (as once understood) within the scripture, demonic (ungodly) forces rush in to fill that void, and death of a nation has always been the result!
Yet, God is still on his throne, and his kingdom cannot be overcome; yet as prophesied the feet of iron (truth) and clay (man) will be destroyed, with the great second coming of the Lord for judgment. The End.

The Ten Virgins
Published on Jan 11, 2015
Matthew 25:1-13 (KJV)
25 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.
9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

THE GREAT SEPARATION
A graphic expressing the Biblical “spiritual” paths; that humanity will choose.
Revelation 20:14 (Original 1611 King James Bible)
And death (Hades) and Hell were cast into the lake of fire: this is the second death.
“Sheol means ‘The place of departed spirits.’ Sheol/Hades was the abode of the spirits of the dead. Before the resurrection of Christ, both believers and unbelievers went to Sheol/Hades. Unbelievers still go there.” – This updated graphic took a lot of Bible studying to get this correct; and research from men like, Johnathan Edwards was the best help.

“Cheap grace, which is another word for damnation.”
–Dietrich Bonhoeffer, The Cost of Discipleship, p. 68
–Dietrich Bonhoeffer, The Cost of Discipleship, p. 68
Cheap grace has killed the American Church.
“Both modern liberal theology and secular totalitarianism
hold pretty much in common that the message of the Bible
has to be adapted, more or less, to the requirements of a
secular world. No wonder, therefore, that the process of
debasing Christianity as inaugurated by liberal theology led,
in the long run, to a complete perversion and falsification
of the essence of Christian teaching by National Socialism.”
-G. Leibholz, Memoir to Cost of Discipleship, p.30,

Is anybody listening? As the Church goes, so goes the country.
bold mine “Cheap grace…is grace without price; grace without cost!…
In such a Church the world finds a cheap covering for its
sins; no contrition is required, still less any real desire to
be delivered from sin. Cheap grace therefore amounts to
a denial of the living Word of God, in fact, a denial of the
Incarnation of the Word of God.”

Maryland’s first female Episcopal bishop
is driver behind fatal hit-and-run
I believe the Lord God, is tiring of his Holy Name being drug in the dirt. Of course, these are not really God’s people, as they do not hear him, or move in him, in any way shape or form. Rather Apostasy has taken root, like in many a congregation of today. Political expedience, and a flip of the calendar, trumps the Lord’s ordinances, by a once God honoring organization; which has not been doing right since about the 1970’s when secularism started creeping in.
I can barely remember the time when the Episcopal Church, at least made an attempt to honor God and his ordinances; within their institutionalized systematic theologies, and practices, but then secularism, social science, politics, and humanistic psychology, overtook the organization during the cultural revolution of the 1960-1970’s.
It was then men, who were devoid of the Holy Spirit’s leading’s, who decided just how, and what they would, “and would not do” in being “followers of Christ”. The Book of Common Prayer, for instance, was updated from the 1600’s model to the 1928 version, and so forth.
I could pick on many a Church gone bad; not just the Episcopalians, yet since I was once a part of them; and have some knowledge of the “Catholic Lites – protestant reformation types”, who have “backslidden” to use that term loosely. This congregation is a prime example, of Satan entering into the institution called the Church. Which I now believe it is impossible to remain in (Babylonian Church Systems) of any type, and still follow Christ, in Spirit and in Truth as corruption, or as the Bible puts it defilements, have taken place.
The mother of Harlots, which is a whore, and not the bride of Christ, practicing evil abominations, and is drunk on the blood of the saints… Revelation 17:5-6 – 5) and upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. 6) And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration. … Revelation 18:04 – And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
I have discovered in my personal walk with my Lord, whom you can only know, and follow him in the “Spirit of Truth” who is Jesus Christ, made manifest to those he has called and chosen. Knowing the Lord God is simply by His grace, to those which he has chosen to do a work in. All the proper doctrines, theology, and so forth, will not make a child of God.
It is by having a love for the truth, (Jesus Christ) that we “might” be saved! That’s right: being saved is NOT a Sign up for Jesus, say the right words, and try to emulate him in our lifestyles – which was so often taught in the Christian informed communities of the past, nor is it a modification of those doctrines today! Even the five points of Calvinism, although academically “nearly correct”; fall way short of actually entering into the spiritual relationship, that the “good ground” must be, to be found “in Christ” on the day of reckoning.
Today is the day of Salvation, the scripture teaches: and to expound on this short text, its message means you must be found “in Christ NOW”, as you live and breathe, if you ever hope to be with him, when your body packs up! As spiritual life in Christ is now – and is indeed spiritual, and not a learned up intellectual understanding, which even the Devil knows.
Yes indeed, the entire Bible agrees; yet you cannot “come to an understanding of the truths of God, by natural means”. 1 Cor 2:14 – But the natural man receives not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
Hence, the most important thing a Christian Fellowship can do, is to discern who is, and who are not the Lord’s people!!! 1 John 4 – Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world…. As a result, the spirit of error enters in, delusion, apostasy, false understandings, with the spirit of anti-Christ, and overall enemies of the cross.
A fellowship of actual believers is no place to be doing an evangelistic meeting – in the midst of the wicked; or even the lost, for that matter.
This is because it is too dangerous in risking the spiritual health of the brethren, by introducing children of the devil, (no matter how nice) into the body. Yet the foremost task of keeping out the religious spirit of anti-Christ emphatically is monumental. This requires strong men of God as Elders, who have the maturity of the Spirit, to recognize someone of a wrong spirit.
Being we live in a western culture – which measures, calculates, and stores everything in an intellectual filing system, containing proper Bible doctrines and dogmas; it is an enormous task to try to discover those who walk in the knowledge of truth; versus those who may have been taught to “sound like they do”… As we said in the Army: are you tracking me?
The bottom line is not how well were you taught the scriptures, but rather how well do you walk in them – if at all?
I could go on and on, but it is useless to try to teach people into salvation, or “how to be the Lords” by reason, as it is a work which God alone does by His Spirit, and human beings have no business interfering with the workings of God. Or by trying to be “God and Savior” themselves! Also, I risk having my words used against me by the enemy – or worse; becoming an anti-Christ myself! I have experienced Satan using my words verbatim against me; in mocking the Lord within me.
It is a very strange thing to fall into the hands of the living Lord, and you soon meet the enemy head on, in ways which you could never have imagined.
