Liberation is freedom from wickedness.
If the wicked endorse something, Satan their master also endorses it. If they endorse it we leave it alone.
Great contrast of the Babylonian Church (False brethren), and the Actual brethren, (the blood of the Saints) who are elect, and have chosen the way of the cross; that they might actually enter in now!
It is a popular, but misconceived concept created from 1900 years of anti-Christ’s, that “God loves everyone” the same. This is simply not true.
God loves his elect; that is, those he is willing to start a work in, towards salvation; creating that individual in the image of his son, Jesus Christ, the only perfect and acceptable means to God, the Father.
Jesus taught his disciples that all that the Father gives to him, will come. He also said on many an occasion “that it is not for their ears to hear”, but to you it is given for understanding (paraphrased).
He is not willing that any should perish in sin, yet that is also in the contexts of whom God the Father wills, and instills his grace upon.
The scripture also says that God takes no joy in the destruction of the wicked, yet he will one day destroy all those not found in the lamb’s book of life.
The problem is that “men want to play God”, in acting “independent of actually following Christ”, by the Holy Spirit. Who is Jesus Christ; the only way to the Father NOW; as we live and breathe. Independence and Rebellion are the two legs, which sin stands upon. So, we who have started with him in salvation, must crucify the old man into his image; that is to allow God to do the work of crucifying our flesh, into the image of his name’s sake. The WICKED, have never started with HIM; and will not. Yet, the LOST will at some time, start with Christ in their lives; but will they finish with him, is the monumental question…
This is why the Apostle Paul continually wrote corrective letters to the different churches, (Galatians, Laodiceans, and so fourth) and why he “beat his flesh” (denied his carnality) that he “might” enter in with Christ NOW, being made conformable to his image.
We must be found IN HIM when we stand before him, and that dear friend is a spiritual condition, and not someone’s favorite doctrinal position; as you may, or may not have been taught, by natural means.
Luke 8 depicts the different types of ground, which people who “start with Christ” are likely to take. It is only the good ground, which produces good fruit, in the form of spiritual maturity; as they have chosen to abide in the vine (Christ in Spirit, not just an intellectual position), so not to be cut off and burnt ultimately.
This is NOT about self-righteous behavioral modifications; you know the routine – “I don’t cuss, I don’t drink, and I don’t smoke”… As it is a work Christ does in us alone, by grace, to those who actually have a heart towards him! Church righteousness, (those who are not dependent on Christ himself) and will normally follow the afore mentioned behavioral modifications; as they will NOT follow the Holy Spirit, in being made to conform to his image – again “Christ’s image”, is what is being spoken about here. This is why the Apostle Paul called them “enemies of the cross”; not because they were some pagan sect outside the camp of believers, but because most simply refused to turn their flesh over for execution, via the Holy Spirit, the only way to spiritual life. The natural man cannot, (emphatic) make himself into the image of Christ, independent of the Holy Spirit!
Another aspect of the modern day church is false brethren, this is epidemic today, especially since most have been taught “the proper words and phrases to utter” out of the scriptural texts! This is why a fellowship of actual beleivers must have elders of spiritual discernment and maturity, otherwise the fellowship will become overun by Satan’s people.
Think about it – most in western cultures have been trained to some degree, in Bible teachings, yet this does not give a man or woman, the chance to become, a son or daughter of God!
Yet, all SAINTS (who have actually started in Christ) have this treasure in earthen vessels, and we slip, fall, and battle with our flesh and with our sin nature (old natures). Yet, He (Christ) is faithful to forgive us, if it is with a heartfelt repentance, we return to him for mercy.
Remember, you cannot fool God, who has a window into our hearts. Yet most (the elect) the Bible tells us, will not allow themselves to suffer what Oswald Chamber’s called the white funeral. (Being crucified with Christ) and most will take what Jesus Called the broad road; which the further traveled down, the more one is likely to shrivel up and die; as they are not partaking in the vine, who is Christ himself, the only hope of salvation. This of course, ultimately leads to destruction.
Even worse, is whom the Apostle John first coined as anti- Christ’s; the ones who started with us, but departed from us. These type of broad roaders, think they can enter into Christ; not being made comfortable to his image. These are the RELIGIOUSE TYPES, normally well read, well spoken; and deceivers of the weaker brethren, (babes) by being deceived, of a different spirit; the spirit of error! Today, most often the local “Church Pastor” with a head full of Bible doctrine, fits this description. It is not some evil raving maniac, possessed by the devil, which most have been taught to believe!
Think about that too; would an establishment institution go and label themselves as anti -Christ? Of course they wouldn’t, that would be self defeating, and destructive to the attendance roster!
You see, one’s salvation is totally dependent, and “hangs on” (so to speak) their dependent relationship with Jesus Christ alone!
Will they shrivel up and die, and ultimately be burnt? Or will they remain with him, in Spirit and in Truth; having a love for the truth that they “might be saved”, in the end is the ultimate question. This is why it is written, that blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, is the only unforgivable sin! As Holy Spirit, is your spiritual connection with Jesus Christ himself! Paul said he must run the good race, fight the good fight, lest he be a castaway, or in not finishing – be condemned!
Woe; you say, who the great Paul..? Yes, precisely so, and we who know him (in spirit – and not mere intellect or soul) must keep pushing into the kingdom of God, which is within us Jesus Taught; and not some “frock in the box”, or even a “village minister” that is of the spirit of, (anti-Christ).
You may be shocked, that I have written this today; but allow me to assure you, I was much more shocked, when I realized most who claim Christ’s name, really have nothing to do with him, only their particular brand of systematic theologies!
Jesus is NOT for everyone, (shock and awl) – but the world church systems would starve, if they didn’t do such religious promotions; for the last 1900 years! Satan is the slickest of all bastards, and he created these institutions to confuse and ultimately destroy the actual brethren! The world, and world church systems are much more brutal and diverse, than I would have ever imagined as a young Christian; so I struggle to write these truths, for those who have an ear to hear.
Oh, and By the way, a real Elder, of spiritual maturity and understanding: (good ground, with mature fruit) is extremely rare today; (not just Bible scholars, but rather Elders in the Lord) so please don’t think what I have written is unbiblical in the least!
May our Lord bless your understanding of these things.

“God always forgives, but the Earth does not,” Says the Argentine Pope Francis…
Is this a window into Revelation 11:13 – And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb – and he spoke as a dragon…
“God always forgives, but the earth does not,” the Argentine pope told the Second International Conference on Nutrition (CIN2) in Rome, a three-day meeting aimed at tackling malnutrition, a global scourge which afflicts poor and rich alike.
In a very strange message, Pope Francis warned that the Earth “would not forgive us” and would “respond with destruction” to man’s greed. Looks like Francis has become a New Age Universalist, steeped in Babylonian eccumentalism, pluralism, and multiculturalism, “in mixing it all together” (like the feet of Iron and clay, found in Daniel) – which will be destroyed; when the Lord returns for judgment….
Will he be the man who announces (reveals) the “man of sin” to the world, the great whore church, and her daughters? PROBABLY SO, and even according to Roman Catholicism’s legend, this Pope is said to be the last Pope on earth!
Rev. 13: 11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb – and he spoke as a dragon…
Two horns “like a lamb” is a big, big, clue; to be worshiped as GOD – but speaks like a dragon…
I think it is interesting that this Pope charges humanity with; the earth not forgiving : this appears to me like “Satan will soon be revealed”, and worshiped as God. That wicked, the son of perdition playing God – who shows many signs and lying wonder: looks to be transpiring – even as we speak! “Who sits upon the beast (church systems): having 7 heads, 7 mountains, 7 hills of ROME; 7 kings, having 7 types of governments..?
*Of course you can only understand this, if given revelation by the Holy Spirit – and not just Bible academia from the natural mind, which receives not the things of God.*

Time the truth is spoken
The sort out is under way, by the grace of God.
An old video; yet it is deeply Pertinent to today…
The photograph is a depiction of “Jeremiah the prophet” by Daniel Murphy, and was copied from his website, with his permission. Please support this brother if you are able… @ http://www.expressionsbymurf.com/
ACTS 2:
16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; [Joel 2:28-32]
17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:
19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:
20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come:
21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
22 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:
23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:
24 Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.
My dream as of 10/15/14 was a rare spiritually given one, which in my entire life; I have had about three now. In being a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ, I do not write these truths which were revealed to me for my personal edification; to be looked upon by others for the sensationalism of them, or that I might be viewed as delusional by a non-believer. As with all things I post, this is about my personal relationship with my Lord. I try and post about firsthand experience, and not “learned up” or “contrived mystical experience”, which I believe is now common in the near death community or worse; are demonically derived experiences which can take the form, of a close counterfeit, to those given to God’s actual sons and daughters. Since Satan was once “the angel of light”, he has no problem with promoting his “dynamic light shows”, to confuse and deceive the elect, away from God and onto himself. My experience with my NDE was so simple, that most have shown little interest in it; as opposed to those who have described spectacular heavenly events; which may or may not have been of God. Please understand, it is not my place to judge (condemn) anyones experience. Yet it is my place, to discern by what spirit someone is of, and dismiss or embrace it as being of God. In short, it has been my experience that God does not normally “use the spectacular” to try and win or communicate with his children. He is simple, and non evasive to the soul; and one who is born again, must be quiet within their human spirit, to be able to discern his voice or presence within them; if and when He should choose to speak to those who are his.
This personality trait of my Lord is simply because he will not violate the free will; which he has freely given to all peoples. To do so would be contrary to who God is, he is not manipulative and or deceptive in nature. Now, with that being said; he will sometimes grace those whose hearts diligently seek him, with some types of spiritual experiences, simply because they are his children, and he wishes to encourage their faith in Him. If the experience in any way, shape or form detracts from drawling his children closer to him: I would venture to say that the experience is not of God, but rather is a distraction away from “a love of the truth of God” (Jesus Christ), so that “they” might be saved. I share to simply draw attention to my Lord, and how he works, for the edification of the brethren, who might be encouraged by my sharing the events of Christ, (the Holy Spirit) within me. It makes no difference to an actual child of God, if that experience is on this side of eternity, or the other.
If we are with him now, we will be with him when absent from our bodies! (2 COR. 5:6) If you cannot see him now working in your life, you are either very spiritually young; or you do not know him, and will not be any closer to him, after your death.
My dream…
The other night I awoke, after “briefly seeing” into the heavenlies.
The dream was a glimpse into a chamber, or what we would call a “board room of sorts”, today. It was filled with “white as snow, wise old council, having long curly beards” shoulder length hair, all in white robes, (at least the one I could see from the side did).
They were sitting at a long “wooden” table, (wood – the symbol of man) discussing the present day conditions upon the earth, and seemed to be planning just how they would proceed, with the Lord Jesus Christ, his people, and his angels, upon his return to the world.
That’s about it: however the wisdom, confidence and competence of these men, were unlike any natural “board of directors” which I have ever known. They were graced by the all knowing presence of God, and seemed to be discussing what would be the most effective means, in attacking evil head on!
I do not know how long into the future it will take for these events to transpire, and it took about three days, to take root in my natural understanding, concerning what I had seen.
It is like that with the spiritual things of God, and he gives us understanding only when we are able, and he is ready to show us; always within his time.
Most go out and try to “convert the world for Jesus”, but a disciple will simply remain still, until he is sent.

What kind of father do these people have….?
HARDCORE TRUTH HERE, not for babies or pink and fluffy false brethren, who claim his name nowadays.
It is a love for the TRUTH; who is Jesus Christ, by the Holy Spirit who indwells his people.
Click on image to enlarge; it should open in another window, then click again for magnification.
1John 4:3 And every spirit that confesses not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof you have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
John 4:35 Say not, There are yet four months, and then comes harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.
1900 years ago John penned these words; it was the begging of the church age with few workers’ for Christ. The Spirit of anti Christ had already come, trying to divert the brethren off course, in simply abiding in Christ by grace.
The new Church “establishment” set up in an Old Testament style hierarchy, again diverted brethren from moving and functioning in the spirit of truth who is Christ. Elders (Pastors) and men holding the God given office, gifting and authority, were often quickly made subservient to another Gospel; in having men as their heads, instead of the spiritually mature men edifying believers in, and towards Christ.
I now believe that the one’s called by name (the ecclesia) in the tail end of the “church age”; are being deceived by those who claim to be in the Bible based Church. When in truth, this is merely a transformation or retread, of yet another spirit of anti Christ, in using the Bible doctrinally while twisting truth; which is only revealed by abiding in Christ and revealed by the spirit of truth.
Another Bible passage that is often misquoted is found in Matthew 28:18-20 18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
This passage Jesus Christ was commissioning as “officers” the 11 disciples, to go and preach his gospel. They were called chosen and sent in obedience to Christ himself, and empowered to perform such a task by the Holy Spirit. We as Christians today, specifically when involved in ministry, which is to be used to edify the body of believers, must know when we are sent by the Lord, and when we are simply operating in the flesh. Anything else simply strikes God from the equation, and remains fruitless.
Satan always tries to usurp God’s authority, by placing men (women) as spiritual heads, and they once again attempt to be in command and control over others, in religious zeal, pride, and intellect. Satan who is the Father of lies goes about deceiving many as they forget that Satan knows his Bible better than any mortal man.
Mathew 24:24 & Mark 13:22 For false Christ’s and false prophets shall rise, and shall show signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.
So when we study the scriptures, or fellowship with others, (1 John 4) we must discern by spirit, what is sound doctrine, in contexts to our understanding, only as revealed by the Holy Spirit. We are never to act, move or follow independent of Jesus Christ within us.
Romans 12:2
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
