{{{ Christ Jesus knows we live in a world where Satan dwells, He is verry much aware of that.
But seems a lot of the time (most of the time) the church forgets that, and just excepts what shows up in our lives as being from GOD.
We are not to just go along with the things of this world, they belong to Satan.
We are to hold fast the name of the Lord, Christ Jesus, we are Not to deny our faith in Him nor His faith in us.
Not even when those around us may be killed or we ourselves may be looking at death due to our faith in Christ Jesus. who was killed among you,
Matthew 10:28
“Do not fear those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.” }}}

{{{ Are your deeds set towards the Lord?
Are your love and faith and service and perseverance set towards the Lord?
Are your deeds of late are greater than at first?
Or are you living off your past, thinking what you did when you first became a Follower of Christ will carry your through to His return?
We, each and every one who are followers of Christ Jesus should be living a life that each and every moment is set in the path the Lord has set out in His word for us to follow.
Matthew 22:37- 40
And Jesus said to him,
“YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.’
This is the great and foremost commandment.
The second is like it,
YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.
On these two commandments depend the whole Law and the Prophets.”
In John 14:15 Jesus tells us
“If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.” }}}
{{{ The GOD of creation knows His creation.
He knows who is walking this earth and of those who is dead and who is alive.
So many in the church are dead, just a ghost of who they were created to be.
Church it is time to WAKE UP and strengthen that live from Christ that still remains in you. // To do so you need to spend time in the word of GOD, you need to spend time talking (communicating) with the Lord your God.
You need to be set in motion to find that narrow path leading to the small gate, and taking as many along with you to find it. //
Remembering what you have already received and heard from the word of GOD; keep it alive and operating in and through your life,
Repent of your lack of faith and concern,
repent of your willing ness to follow after the world and its loves.
Repenting of your sins, turning from sin and turning to the Lord your God. }}}
{{{ Christ Jesus knows when our deeds are towards our self or toward the world and its ways.
Just as He knows when our deeds are toward Him.
He knows the level of our straight no matter how little it may be, He knows if you have denied His name or if you are still faithful.
Christ our Lord knows all about you, your thoughts and your actions. }}}
{{{ He knows if you are attending church for other purposed then to learn how to live closer to Him, to learn how to fulfill your longing to find the narrow path that leads to the small gate.
Or if you are there for the social gathering, to make your appearance.
Or to fulfill an obligation to please others, so the rest of the week you can live in the world for the world and fulfill your own desires in life.
Our you hot or cold?
Cold or hot?
Will you be spit out or taken in? }}}
{{{ Are you one who loved Christ when you first excepting Him,
but over time that love has weekend and your love has gone back to the things and ways of this world.
Jesus straight out says repent (turn from what you are doing and are involved in and return to Him, for unless you repent and return to following after Him, He will remove you. }}}
These things are important.
We are to be like Christ our Lord, not just know who He is and How He lived when He was on earth in the form of a man.
This takes a heart change on our part, are we willing to obey His commandments?
Or our we to attached to the world and its ways?
Christ Jesus knows our thoughts as well as He knows our actions.
We are warned all through the scripters of how we are to live, but how many adhere to the words of GOD?
Why does the church follow more after the world and its ways rather than the words of the Lord our God.
We have been so programed to think we need more, that more is better.
Why is it when the world comes up with a new toy, we think we need to have it?
Why do we say something is from God when it is used to displease God?
Why when our Lord Jesus tells us to not be attached to the world or the things of this world why is it that every day, we strive to have more of it?
Our lives are to glorify Christ Jesus, to honor Him and to bring blessings to Him,
But the church the bride of Christ in America seems to want to glorify self.
As so many Followers of Christ around the earth are being persecuted, many put to death because they clam Christ Jesus as their Lord and savior, so many in America think they are persecuted if their internet goes down for five minutes, or if they have to wait more for an order of food when they go to a restraint.
Always thinking about self rather than others.
Complaining about any and everything that causes them any discomfort, and calling it persecution.
The America Christian is only now starting to see real persecution.
Our GOD has told us
“If the world hates you, know that it hated Me before it hated you."
As the Church, believers in and followers of our Lord Christ Jesus we are also told;
“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”
Can you humble yourself?
Can you take the time to seek the face of GOD?
Can you turn from the wickedness in your life?
1John 1:8
“If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us.”
It is time to figure out who you are in Christ Jesus.
It is time to seek the Kingdom of GOD and His righteousness,
It is past time to humble yourself before GOD and seek His face.
It is time to know who you are in Christ Jesus before you find out what real persecution is.
Matthew 10:22
“You will be hated by all because of My name, but it is the one who has endured to the end who will be saved.”
Matthew 24:9-13
“Then they will deliver you to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name.
At that time many will fall away and will betray one another and hate one another.
Many false prophets will arise and will mislead many.
Because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold.
But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved.”
Something to not only think about but to make a choice about and then stand firm in your choice.
Chose this day who you will serve.

The just shall live by faith.
Have your mind and heart set on the LORD daily, moment by moment.
Jesus told us if we follow Him, we will be hated by the world just as He is heated by the world.
We are to be holy as He is holy.
We are to seek first The Kingdom of God His righteousness.
Each and every day the first thing we should be concerned about should be to seek GOD, His Kingdom and His righteousness, this should take place before any other things, any other thoughts.
If God is first in our lives this should not be a problem.
If God is our first love, He will be in our thoughts daily, moment by moment.
GOD will never force you to seek Him, but He is faithful and will be there for you when you chose to turn to Him and seek Him.
Be aware of what you are thinking when you wake each morning,
Be aware of what you are thinking when you are facing a hardship.
You have the option to have a true relationship with the LORD, It is your choice to spend time with Him just as it is your choice to waste your time on other things, it is your choice, as to who or what is going to be important to you. It is your choice if you will put Christ Jesus first or an afterthought. It is your choice if you will talk with Him through out your day, or to be to busy to even think about Him.
As a Christian, as Christians, if as much time was spent seeking the Kingdom of God as is spent on choosing a movie, or choosing what you are going to eat, how much more of a relationship would you have with the LORD your GOD.
We give so many more things our time then we give to the Lord, It seems most who go by the name Christian are so much more concerned about the things of this world than seeking The Kingdom of God.
When job, home, car, clothing, what others may think and so much more are the first things thought of the major things thought of through out your days, then you need to reevaluate your priorities.
You need to reevaluate what God you are serving. Reevaluate what is truly important to you and your life.
Each morning, each day you will chose to seek after someone or something, If you are going to go by the name Christian then chose to seek first The Kingdom of God and His righteousness.
Not the things of this world.
Is your faith in the Lord?
If so than the choice should not be a hear one to make.
If your faith and trust is firmly planted in the lord, you should know He will provide all your needs, He knows what you have need of.
If you chose to put your faith and trust in men and the tings of man, all i can say is good luck, you will need it.
And don’t be shocked or amazed when you stand before the Lord and He says to you;
“Depart from Me for I never knew you”,
for in reality that will be what you have been asking for.
Rather then being upset for what is posted here you might take a moment to calm down and think about it.
Think about what you truly want out of the life that has been given to you.
Think about where you want to spend eternity.
It is your choice, so chose wisely.

Matthew 6:9-15
“Pray, then, in this way:
Our Father who is in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come. Your will be done, On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever.
Amen.
For if you forgive others for their transgressions, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
But if you do not forgive others, then your Father will not forgive your transgressions.”
{{ This prayer has been on my mind for some time now.
i resight it almost every morning and sometimes throughout the day.
Jesus tells us to pray in this manner, and then points out the part of forgiving others,
There are many times it comes to mind the word transgressions instead of debtors,
Every time i think about it and who i may be holding a grudge or unforgiveness against, or who may have transgressed me, or who may owe me a debt, no one comes to mind.
What does come to mind is that every instance in my life that i have held something against someone ells it has been my fault, something of my making a situation from something i said or did.
No one owes me anything, and it seems that i am to blame do to my own bad attitude or felling of being miss used,
but in reality, each instance was brought on by my own evil heart or mind.
This kind of scars me, because i don’t want to miss forgiving any one for anything they may have done, but when i ask the LORD to show me who i am holding a grudge against or that i have not forgiven, each instance when thought through each one has been of my own making.
i have gone as far as thinking of things going on in the world that cause me concerned, such as the weather and food being weaponized as i have written about in former post, about what our government has and is doing against the people, against me.
This morning i realized i need to forgive them also.
Forgiving them is just as important and valid and forgiving anyone ells.
They seem to be the only people who have done tings against me, things to do harm to me, So, this morning i am taking the resolve to forgive the government and the actors their in for what they have and are doing against me, to our country.
Even though i may not know each and every person involved or even the full extent of what they have done and are doing, in my heart i know i must forgive them.
So here and now publicly, i forgive them each and every one for each and every thing.
And Lord i ask for forgiveness for my debts i owe others, that i am sure there are many, for it seems it has been my own actions that have brought times of grief not only to my self but to others i have known.
It has been my sins that has been the problem, not theirs against me.}}
Psalm 23 is the other prayer i pray often.
Psalm 23:1-6
¶ A Psalm of David.
The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside quiet waters.
He restores my soul;
He guides me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You have anointed my head with oil; My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life,
And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
{{ The Lord is my shepherd;
In days of old a shepherd personally took care of His flock, spent hours upon hours days upon days with His flock watching over and caring for them, protecting them from their adversary’s, lions, tigers, bear, wolves and such,
just as Jesus our LORD takes care of us, watching over protecting and defending us,
He is our great shepherd, our protector and our provider.
In days of old the shepherd made sure there sheep had want of nothing, continually moving them to green pastures and fresh water so they would have plenty and could rest peacefully knowing He was watching over them.
As we are willing to trust in the Lord and follow His instructions He does and is doing the same for us.
He restores our soul;
He guides us in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake.
So that as the Father says of Christ Jesus
“This is My beloved Son, with whom I am well-pleased; listen to Him!”
(( i love this statement Father God made of Jesus because at the end He states “listen to Him!” ))
for if we will but listen to the words of Christ Jesus they will draw us in to Him, that we will desire more and more of Jesus for us to live in Him and He to live in us, for us to be more and more like Him (Jesus) so that we may hear those word enter in my good and faithful servant.
Matthew 7:21
“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter.
Matthew 25:21
“His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful slave. You were faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things; enter into the joy of your master.'
In Acts 14:22 we are told that being disciples of Christ Jesus we are being taught so that our souls will be strengthened and encouraged to continue in faith in Jesus and are told that “Through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God.”
The ting is that with Christ Jesus as our shepherd He (Jesus) is there to protect us from the evil one and will provide all our needs.
Always our needs not always are wants, desires or lust.
We are told in Luke 12:22-32 some major things we need to know and understand:
1. we need not worry about your life, as to what you will eat; nor for your body, as to what you will put on.
“For life is more than food, and the body more than clothing."
2. which of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life’s span?
If then you cannot do even a very little thing, why do you worry about other matters?
3. You of little faith! do not seek what you will eat and what you will drink, and do not keep worrying.
4. “But seek His kingdom, (The Kingdom of GOD) and these things will be added to you.
And as most of you know I seem to always go back to Matthew “For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.
But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself.
Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
By trusting in our Lord, by having our faith firmly planted in Him, we can boldly say;
Even though i walk through the valley of the shadow of death, i fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You have anointed my head with oil; My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life, And i will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
For our shepherd is the LORD Christ Jesus he is the great shepherd who has given Himself for our redemption, the shepherd who with His rod and staff draws us in to His will and protection, the shepherd who gave His all so that we may dwell with Him throughout eternity, without want or need for He is our provider and our provision.
What ells could we ever have need of?
The Lord is my shepherd, i shall not want. }}

When one party of a debate is allowed to own both sides of the discussion, there can be no justice.
Just look at the United States Congress if you doute that.
Both sides of any conversations have been controlled by one party for decades and the people have had no justice.
Both the house and the senate have been under the control of one party and we the people have been deceived, and have recived no justice.
Debates and hearings go on and on but there is no justice found for the people.
Hearings are held everyday but one side controls the narrative and the people find no justice.
Liberty and justice have all but been removed from the lives of the people, once gone we have no constitution, we have no freedom, we have no rights for the one-party system will remove our constitution.
You want to save your freedom?
You want to save your ability to choose?
You want to live a life out from under a tyrannical dictator system?
Then stand up and be counted.
We live in a fallen world but it is our choice as to how much control that fallen world has on each of us.
By turning to Christ Jesus, following His commandments, we can find and have true freedom.
When the vote was settled on our constitution, Benjamin Franklin was asked
“what did we get” his response was
“a Constitutional Republic, if you can keep it”
The original language in the Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights states is as follows;
Amendment II
A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.
Even according to British law, citizens had natural rights to life, and therefore, to self-defense, and therefore to arms.
But a tyrannical government tris to remove that right from the people, this is done so that their resistance can simply be quenched by a show of force.
For if a people can defend themselves, they are heard to control when that body of people relies their freedom is being taken away.
The Constitutional Congress included the Second Amendment, which allows citizens to bear arms because of the importance of not only self-defense but for the defense of the nation.
Due to the democratic tyrannical form of government, we are seeing almost daily clams being made of an inherent danger of allowing citizens to arm themselves.
They have made the Second Amendment the most controversial amendments of the Bill of Rights.
Father GOD has given us the right and ability to defend ourselves.
But the one-sided government has been trying to take that right and ability away from the citizens for decades.
But has now given that right to the people who have invaded our country.
There is truly only one way out of this mess we as citizens find our selves in, Fathe God have given us the way out.
“If My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
Want your freedom back?
Want a life of liberty and justice?
Then humble yourself before the Lord your God, repent of your sins,
pray and seek the face of your God and turn from your wicked ways.
If we the people who are called by His name will do our part He will fallow through and do as He said, He will heal our land.
Or are you to self-centered,
are your sins so precious to you that you can’t let them go,
not even to save your county?
Call your self by the name of Christ?
Semes to go right back to Matthew
Matthew 7:21-24
“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter.
Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?’
And then I will declare to them,
"I never knew you; DEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS."
Therefore, everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock.”
The saddest and most disturbing words anyone will ever hear, words that will burn in your eyers and mind for eternity;
“”I never knew you, depart from me.””
Think about it.
Are you a Christian? Or is that just a label you use to make others think good of you, or to fool yourself to think you will make it in to heaven?
Why don’t you do more than think about it,
Bend your knee to the Lord humble yourself, turn from your sins,
Seek His face, and turn from the evil in your life.
Amendment I of the Bill of Rights
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Simply sated the government does not have the right or authority to establish a religion.
Nor does it have the right or authority to prohibit the free exercise of any religion.
Nor does it have the right or authority to interfere with speech of the people or the press.
Nor does it have the right or authority to interfere with the PEACEABLY assemble of the people.
Nor does it have the right or authority to interfere or stop the people from presenting a formal written application seeking a court's intervention and action on a matter to the Government. for a redress (To put in order again; to make right; to emend; to revise) of grievances. (cause of hardship or harm the government may have placed upon the people).
the second Amendment of the Bill of Rights does not and never has said that the Church nor the Christian can not have influence on the government but that the government is not to have any influence in nor on the Chruch.
Such as is going on right now against the Church and the Christian community.
But if you are not willing to put your faith in the Lord your GOD, seek first His Kingdome and His righteousness, bend a knee humbling yourself before the Lord your GOD and turn from your evil ways.
Then just stop complaining and except your consequences from the evil in this world, and ultimately the LORD on the final day of judgment.
Evil prospers when the good people do not stand up for what is right.
Making the good people just as guilty of evil as the ones doing evil.
Now think about that.
Where do you stand?
If you do not stand for something, you will fall for anything.
So why don't you stand for the LORD your GOD before it is to late.

Have you made the right choices?
Are you prepared?
-------------------------------
Those of you who have been here for a wall, by now know 99% of what is posted here is aimed at the church goer, not the world.
A calling to turn to the word of God to follow the words of the Lord and to direct you to a deeper personal relationship with Christ our LORD.
i know i answered some of this a week ago or so, but with all the new people some of the same old questions have been asked aging.
1. i know my spelling is not always right, i am not good at spelling and sometimes use the wrong spelling of a word, or even the wrong word. i do try.
Good thing grammar has nothing to do with the power of the words of GOD.
2. Why i do not capitalize I when referring to myself, is honestly the number one question i get asked.
Answer:
i am not the I am.
Jesus speaks of Himself as the I am.
John 14:6
Jesus said to him,
“I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.”
In no way do i want to put my sell above or even as an equal to my Lord Christ Jesus.
i think this is a rude and arrogant and dangerous place to put one’s self, for He is God and we are not.
Even though the world says it is the right and proper thing to do, that does not make it right.
3. Questions that are being asked more often such as;
why don’t you, shire with us about the end times?
When will Christ return?
What should we be looking for to know when He is coming?
My answer to each: what difference does it make.
Ether you will be ready or you won’t.
It would be better to live a life ready for His return at any moment,
Then to know the time or day, but not be ready, and missing the ride home.
i am not concerned as to when He will return, for He said He will return.
The concern that has been placed on my heart is not a concern as to when He will return, but rather the concern is that as many as posable are ready for when He returns.
Parable of Ten Virgins
Matthew 25:1-13
“Then the kingdom of heaven will be comparable to ten virgins, who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.
Five of them were foolish, and five were prudent.
For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them, but the prudent took oil in flasks along with their lamps. Now while the bridegroom was delaying, they all got drowsy and began to sleep.
But at midnight there was a shout,
‘Behold, the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.’
Then all those virgins rose and trimmed their lamps.
The foolish said to the prudent, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’
But the prudent answered, ‘No,
there will not be enough for us and you too; go instead to the dealers and buy some for yourselves.’
And while they were going away to make the purchase,
the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast; and the door was shut.
Later the other virgins also came, saying, ‘Lord, lord, open up for us.’
But he answered,
‘Truly I say to you, I do not know you.’
Be on the alert then, for you do not know the day nor the hour.
{{ you do not know the day nor the hour, but you can be prepared.
You do not need to spend your time figuring out when, for the only one who knows that is Father GOD.
But you do need to be prepared.
You do not need to be perfect, but you do need to be seeking.
Jesus never said I will return once you have your act together,
just as He never said; once you can obey all My commandments then I will except you and forgive you.
No indeed He stands at the door and knocks, waiting for us to humbly answer His call.
We are told to seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness,
are you seeking His Kingdome?
are you seeking His righteousness?
Are you seeking to be righteous as He is righteous?
It is honestly seeking with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind, when you spend more time following worldly thoughts, things and ways then you do in His word, and following His teachings? i don't think so.
We are told in Matthew 22:37
And He (Jesus) said to him,
“YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND."
Be prepared, by having your heart mind and soul set firmly in and on the Lord your God, rather than on your own pleasures, rather than in the world and its ways.
Daily be in communication with the Lord your God,
talk with Him, seek His face, seek His direction in your life, absorb His word like a sponge absorbs water. }}
Parable of the Talents
Matthew 25:14-30
“For it is just like a man about to go on a journey, who called his own slaves and entrusted his possessions to them.
To one he gave five talents, to another, two, and to another, one, each according to his own ability;
and he went on his journey.
Immediately the one who had received the five talents went and traded with them, and gained five more talents.
In the same manner the one who had received the two talents gained two more.
But he who received the one talent went away, and dug a hole in the ground and hid his master’s money.
Now after a long time the master of those slaves came and settled accounts with them.
The one who had received the five talents came up and brought five more talents, saying, ‘Master, you entrusted five talents to me.
See, I have gained five more talents.’
His master said to him,
‘Well done, good and faithful slave.
You were faithful with a few things;
I will put you in charge of many things; enter into the joy of your master.’
Also, the one who had received the two talents came up and said, ‘Master, you entrusted two talents to me.
See, I have gained two more talents.’
His master said to him,
‘Well done, good and faithful slave.
You were faithful with a few things,
I will put you in charge of many things;
enter into the joy of your master.’
And the one also who had received the one talent came up and said, ‘Master, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you did not sow and gathering where you scattered no seed.
And I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the ground.
See, you have what is yours.’
But his master answered and said to him, ‘You wicked, lazy slave, you knew that I reap where I did not sow and gather where I scattered no seed.
Then you ought to have put my money in the bank, and on my arrival, I would have received my money back with interest. Therefore, take away the talent from him, and give it to the one who has the ten talents.’
“For to everyone who has, more shall be given, and he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have, even what he does have shall be taken away.
Throw out the worthless slave into the outer darkness;
in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
{{ we are each given abilities, gifts, talents, a part of God the Holy Spirit; all from our LORD and master, What we do with them is totally up to us,
will we use them to go out and live in a manner that will draw others to Christ Jesus??
Or will we hide those gifts away? }}
{{{ Aging those of you who have been here for a wall, by now know 90% of what is posted here is aimed at the church goer, not the world.
A calling to turn to the word of God, to follow the words of the Lord and to direct you to a deeper personal relationship with Christ our LORD.
For all who go by the title of Christian, who call Christ Jesus Lord, will not enter the Kingdome of Heaven.
We are directly told by Christ Jesus Being prepared as the wise Virgins and using the abilities the Lord has given us our both our responsibilities.
Will you be wise and be prepared?
Or will you say to yourself God is forgiving
‘I have time I can please myself a little longer.’
Take off the blinders and look at the world around you, the warning has been given, and the snow ball is rolling down the hill gaining speed.
Here is something you should take from the Parable of the Ten Virgins.
It was not up to the five wise to carry the responsibility of the five foolish,
Don’t think you will slip in to heaven because you go to church, don’t think you will make it into heave because your friend loves the Lord God with all his or her heart soul and mind,
That will not work,
No you’re outcome is totally dependent on you and your willingness to obey and follow the LORD Christ Jesus.
Get in the word of GOD and know Him, communicate with Him Pray, talk with Him daily,
but even more take the time to be still, be quiet and learn to hear His voice. }}}
Be wise, be diligent, obey the words of our Lord Jesus, and live for Him the one who hung on the cross for you and came back to life, the one who now is preparing to return to gather you up and take you to be with Him.
You call your self a Christian?
Then live like one, totally dependent on Him.
And obey His commandments.
Matthew 7:21-24
“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven,
but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter.
Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?’
And then I will declare to them,
"I never knew you;
DEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS." Therefore, everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock.”
The saddest and most disturbing words anyone will ever hear, words that will burn in your eyers and mind for eternity;
“”I never knew you, depart from me.””
Either you chose to be ready, or you don’t, that choice is yours.
