This will wet your spiritual saliva glands.
Jochebed Moses mother gave up her son and got him back. In Exodus 2:9 After placing Moses in a ark and giving him away, she got him back.

Mary who has a son Jesus, who used to sit on the ark in the most holy place, on the mercy seat. He was the Angel of God's face then. preincarnate Christ. He was taken from her and put on a cross. Then it happened, he was raised from the dead and she got him back.

Here is some hope for someone. Ps.27:10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up.
In my zeal and witnessing to my parents when I was a newby, my father swung a broom at me. It was time to go, not in anger but become a man. God really blessed and carried me beyond your imagination. In closing my neighbors just came and gave me onions. I shared some things about Jesus with them. They are Christians and understand much.

Gen. 21:1 Can you see the emphasizing point here?
if you say something twice then you know that it is a strong point. two times-- God said and God had spoken. Look at verse 3. The set time that God had spoken. v.4 as God had *commanded Abraham did. v.12 God said to Abraham. v.12 Now we have Sarah saying something which God approves. v.16-17 God hears the voice of crying. God the angel calls out of heaven. God hears the voice of the lad.
1. There is a lot here about communication. mostly by God. There is no deception here--like a false vision. This is all about v.33 the calling on( God H3068 Yahweh ) Not Allah. Only God speaks here and he is a personal God. also loving and caring.

God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He is a very personal eternal living God. John 10 hear the Shepherds voice. Allah says nothing. The angel of God is the preincarnate son of God. Remember in your hard times God will hear your cry.

The body of Christ will arise by hearing God's voice. They will follow the Shepherd wherever he goes. Get rid of guilt and condemnation and start listening. Get under the blood confession. Don't forget the bread and the cup.

The scriptures most are taught are a educated but great way to show truth. In this hour God is giving revelation by his Spirit which is even more to the heart, wisdom and understanding.

As always I only show the thought but have you read the word. Job 12:10 In God's hand every creature and soul that has breath of man kind. No mention of aliens here only mankind.
Eccl. 12:7 The flesh goes back to the dust and spirit back to God who gave it.
Isa. 57:15-21 v.16 the souls that God has made. My calling is here revealed. when you read this, you may not want this calling.
God is showing here that he is willing too forgive the covetous. and also to revive the humble.
Zech. 12:1-2 God created the heavens and the earth and the spirit of man-the life, within him.
Num. 27:16 the Lord God of the spirits of all flesh, He sets over the congregation who he wills. I would add here, the body of Christ is his possession. He is the head. Not a one man show. He purchased them with his blood not anyone else. We are his to use and glorify his name and make him a praise in the earth, even the smallest member.
If you cannot trust God go to work-if you are afraid another preacher gets some of your offering. Don't worry about me I am a (tent maker type.) I preach but not for money. I owe Jesus everything and more. Be mature here, I walk by faith.

concluding-- Every living man kind is made and guided by God. Therefore he has the right to rule over all. Every knee shall bow and tongue confess Jesus Christ is Lord. I seal this message with love and hope for all and am zealous for restoration of his Assemblies and saints. and yes I am holy but not more than thou.

Israel faced giants greater in power. They were afraid and said we are grasshoppers. This message is a prophetical one to let us see a future event we will face.
1. Overcomers are likely to have less issues, they will be out of here. But Rev.12 shows us they are coming after us. as a flood. In Isa. 59:19 When the enemy comes in like a flood, the (Spirit of the Lord) will raise a standard--nus-- put to flight-- against him. Wow the robots will be running away from the Holy Spirit in us. Don't forget our commanding words of faith.
2. Yes overcomers who are not ready will be taught to do these things even though left behind from the first rapture. If your like me preparing to go out on the first fruit rapture. Jesus author of my faith have mercy on me.

In Judges Chapter 10: let's take a look at a few things.
v.1-5 A lot of historical here.
v. 6 uh oh Israel is getting into bad things here. Let's call it big sin.
v.7-9 God allows trials tribulation and extreme misery.
v.10-11 God reminds of his deliverance--Salvation-- (my) you have grieved my Holy Spirit).
v.13-14 God is amazing he says here, no more deliverance cry all you want. v.15 The people say, we have sinned and deserve your righteous judgment. Here's why God is amazing. He sees their faith. They are going to act as if he never said no more grace. They are going to pick up the pieces (The good word they have been taught) Will get their righteous act together and quit all those whoredoms with the world and it's gods.

v.16 Here it is God's compassion. They abused his grace but humbled themselves and said we are wrong but we know how to act right and we will do it.

v. 17-18 it doesn't seem like they would be so confident in their faith to go and win a war with God as their helper ( the good fight of faith) unless they knew they were restored. Other wise just keep on doing the right things. remember they were under the law. Disobey meant death. Look how good we have this grace of Jesus 1Jn.1:9. remember also if you put your hand to the plow there's no turning back. Grace----to---you---precious ---blood. Notice how I make a message apply for today.

A few years ago the media had a great time telling about the Pope and how it was a sign of his beginning. it was just because lightning struck the top tower. You may remember it.

Not a very long time after that, the media made small if any coverage on the Mecca high holy days. Great lightning came down and knocked over several lift equipment for the walls of the place of the gathering of 2 million Muslims to worship Allah.

This year 2023 right now is the time of their high holy days. The area is swarming with Locusts to the point they cannot worship. Sounds a lot like Moses in Egypt. The travail of birth pangs are increasing rapidly. Continuing to be a watchman, God is great.

I want to praise and thank Jesus for 50 + yrs. Of salvation.
We have been taught to not tell to much of our past as it doesn't glorify the Lord. I will say this, if I told you what I was, you would have nightmares. As a good example , the only pigs I could go into was pigs in the Parlor.
The Holy Spirit visited me in a rock band session and I called on Jesus and he touched me inside. The whole band called on Jesus as they were shocked. My minstrel music was given to me audibly by God at a later time. Have been in several serious gospel bands and played bass for all those years in churches claiming Holy Spirit filled.
My time in the KJV led me to tongues and Baptism. Have been taught by the H.F. Freeman ministry, and his others who taught a uncompromising word. walking by faith includes miracles, healings, gifts , double portion blessings. So much more.
I have a definite call to 5-fold ministry. God put me in a position to not educate in a denominational system or seminary, but instead he teaches me daily, end time revelations. ( yes ) I teach only by the Spirit. believe me trials and tribulations are often but Jesus shows me how to win the victory every time.
One of my favorite gifts is commanding rain to stop or tornados to cease or go away. Oh also hurricanes.
I love for these years --my experiencing sharing the gospel everywhere. example-- one fellow was drugged up in a park, I shared great Jesus with him and he sobered up and asked many questions. He was serious and not playing with me. It looked like predestination- God calling him. When we finished he was high again and staggered off. The rest is in God's hands. All I have found out in these last years is continuing to be sold out as a alter for God and his fullness. Hope you were encouraged.

The snare of covetous quick get rich schemes Col. 3:5 shows us covet is idolatry. Instruments and singing everywhere for money and competition. Heb. 11:26 speaks about forsaking Egypt --the world-- for Christ and his greater riches.

Oh the sweet presence of the Holy Spirit, his love ,care, hope, supply needs etc. It is very rare that I miss a day without praising him with my instruments. Also he talks too me through his word and shows jaw dropping secrets of his wisdom. When used to go go to play nursing homes and share God and his word and see miracles. The people loved it but the nurses wanted to get it over with quickly. Some of them enjoyed it though. God presence was so strong that I asked a nurse while playing praise music if she could feel the presence and she said yes. amazing peace.

false gods are a cheap rip off. Meanwhile God is angry--not good.

In the book of Revelations we have two scriptures. Rev.9:14 and 16:12. The video shows the river is drying and they hear the evil angels screaming. ( you tube) Some say this is fake and made up. In my opinion, The picture that stands out is like a parable-- a important truth. It drives me to sober thinking. I want to be ready for Jesus to take me home instead of missing the mark and not sharing Jesus with the world who face a never ending eternity.
I have pity for those who are forced to believe in their parents false religions and pray God will save them Amen?.

The three new buildings in Jerusalem are represented by Catholic, Islam, and Judaism. What I found is to show how close we are to the Antichrist.

Islam-- This is a Muslim religion. Jn. 2:21-23 They deny Jesus is the son. Allah has no son. That is what Mohammed taught.
Judaism-- right now they are arresting anyone preaching the gospel in Jerusalem. One year prison term. In the N.T. we see that they charged Jesus with blasphemy. Matt. 26:63-66 He told them he is the son of God.
Catholic-- The Pope takes the place of the son of God. He even forgives sin. The teachings they teach include that the book of Revelation is allegory and not literal. Rev. 22:18-19 not allowed to add or take away from this book or perish.

More could be said here but the point is These are not Holy religions and looks like a start in the future plan.

I've been enjoying recently, a website that is filled with little known accounts that highlight God's work in creation.

This brother has done an incredible amount of research in putting together these accounts.

Of course, as with almost anything, there's a certain amount of subjectivity involved in determining what constitutes a sign, or a wonder, but I'm sure you'll be better off having all of these accounts to parse as you go about exercising your own judgment in these matters!

Someone sent me a newsletter regarding the events of the last few weeks. I generally give things like this a quick read and delete but this one I thought was quite interesting. I know very little about the writer so no comment there.

Am I the only one who is tired of a 24-hour news cycle and being bombarded with newsletter opinions? I know we supposed to keep up but I'm just finding it all a little too much. In Israel they say concerning politics that for every two Israelis there are 3 opinions. That seems to describe the current political environment. Plus a 24 hr news cycle.

The point of the newsletter is that there is now starting a domestic war on terror with a great curtailing of civil rights. Francis Schaefer in his book "How should we then live" predicted that a left or right dictatorship would emerge in America. One thing for sure is that there are great changes happening and going to happen.

That a new War on Terror is coming is not a question of speculation and it is not in doubt. Those who now wield power are saying it explicitly. The only thing that is in doubt is how much opposition they will encounter from those who value basic civic rights more than the fears of one another being deliberately cultivated within us.

Okay, I couldn't contain my joy any longer... I've got the perfect bible for you all!

It's a completely waterproof bible. It's all plastic! No more worries about reading in the shower or tearing up over a stirring verse (you're not going to be able to tear it up easily, either!)

It's a bible for reading. No references, no notes, just the words from the greatest translators that ever lived--those KJV translators!

It is camouflaged for those times you want a little stealth when you're out there in the wilderness with others that may not be exactly enamored with you carrying that big-old family bible (you know, the one that has the gold-gilded edges and looks like a hammer?).

With this bible there are no distractions as you nimbly glide from one proof-text to another. You'll be able to stand there and take all that those abusive mud-slingers want to throw at you... knowing full well that you can hose the whole thing off as soon as your mission is finished!

Best of all, it floats. You'll be able to use it while baptizing that mob... never again will you be standing in the middle of the creek trying to remember that baptismal formula, you'll look like a real preacher when you reach down and fish out the real-preacher bible floating right beside you!

People will respect you now, and even if they don't, it matters not...remember, that tomatoes, rotten fruit, and even spoiled vegetables, wash right off, leaving you with a clean, white, pure KJV bible. No one will ever know that you were hip deep in mud when you stand up to preach on Sunday.

Hey, I didn't mention one of the best features... you know how bible shopping these days can set you back a pretty penny: This perfect bible is only $36.49!

You can get a black or brown imitation leather slip cover if you don't need the camo, or don't think you'll be doing any guerrilla warfare. You'll be out an extra $20 bucks or so, but hey, you might need a little respectability when rubbing elbows with those genuine-goat-skin-carrying comrades at the next Leadership Conference on Pentecostal Excesses.

By now you've decided that you've got to have one, so here is the link: (and NO! I'm not making a dime on this... I've read all about what my WaterProof KJV says about "filthy lucre"... just a minute, let me wipe that mustard stain off... Peter mentions the stuff once and Paul, four times! If only I had a waterproof keyboard I'd give you this report from my shower... a clean brother preaching from a clean bible while singing about that fount that makes me white as snow!)

Now you can be a real fisher of men with a real floating bible that's practically indestructible and you can do it while walking on the water without fear that you're going to ruin your bible... you may sink, but your bible won't!

Oh, the link:

https://www.amazon.com/Waterproof-Bible-Bardin-Marsee-Publis hing/dp/0984085734

Get one, you'll not be disappointed!

Blessings,
William

Francis Schaefer wrote a book on that subject. I've talked about it before but couldn't find the thread. I found it hugely interesting and am reading it again. He showed how starting in the reformation and the renaissance all of mans art philosophy science etc and the key moments in history that has brought us to the world we now live in.

The point here is that the film based on the book is on youtube. Last time I read the book I couldn't find the film. anyway its worth reading and watching.

A translation of the OT by Robert Alter


He did 4 other books and I have all of them. He is Jewish and as far as I am aware not particularly religious. He is a scholar and professor with an absolutely intuitive grasp of the Hebrew. I like reading history. I found his book called "The David Story" on 1,2 Samuel bought it and was captivated.

His translations are not intended to be a translation of the bible so us religious fanatics can understand the word. Having said that next time I start my OT bible reading in Genesis I'm gong to use it. He is just a scholar with a huge interest in the Hebrew text. Its interesting that the only other version he likes is the KJV. That puts him at odds with much of the christian world. Although not me!

From the article "I would add that the beautiful cadences, the elegant and pointed choice of words, the expressive use of syntax, the vividness of the language of the dialogues, are all essential elements of the reading experience of the Bible, and I’ve done my best to preserve them in English,” he said."

2000 years of Charismatic Christianity

By Eddie L Hyatt

The book . . . https://tinyurl.com/y7t7unah

From the preface

"Its purpose is to show that Pentecostals and Charismatics do have a legitimate history. It also suggests that instead of being on the fringes of orthodox Christianity , Pentecostal and Charismatic Christianity is in the mainstream of both biblical and historic Christianity"

From the introduction

"has it reappeared suddenly in the 20th century with no historical link to the past as some contend"

"The fact is that Pentecostals and Charismatics do have a legitimate history . . . found in the various revival and renewal movements that have emerged constantly in the life of the church"

He makes the point that the book is not cobbled together bits and pieces of church history but a solidly researched scholarly work that will stand up under serious scrutiny. Its also easy to read

Augustine's book "City of God" had a whole chapter on miracles. I read that and went and checked my copy. Strangely enough my edited version didn't have that chapter in it. I wonder why.

Martin Luther
Luther's remarks on the cessation of miracles were taken out of context. The author of the book believes that Luther had a direct experience of seeing the Lord just like Paul. 11 Cor. 12
Many of his followers believed he was a prophet. He also had prophesies fulfilled/prayed for the sick cast out demons etc. You sure don't read that in all the edited biographies of his life.

He gives a lot of info in the book. Also answers some questions I had about some supposedly heretical groups in history. The book has been out for 20 yrs. I don't know why I've never heard of it. Anyway the book is interesting and well worth reading.

To see how determined the left-wing liberal forces that be here in America are to keeping their ungodly laws intact, just look at what's happening with the president's selection for U.S. Supreme Court Justice, Brett Kavanough. Is the timing of these 'revelations' suspect? Of course they are. Can the democrats derail the selection process be creating doubt in this mans' character? Looks that way, but even if they fail his character will be tarnished in the minds of many forever.

God has an agenda, it can't be derailed, nor can any testimony or pressure from the left or from the right can change it, His will will be done.

My prayer is just that, GOD'S WILL BE DONE...(and I trust that's the prayers of all believers...not our 'christian' agenda that 'seems ' right and just, but God's choice.)


O.K. that's my 'getting into politics'....

Quite an interesting article here on Wiki. I had no idea. To take heat like this they must have been very effective. When I was about 14 I was camping with my family and listened to a Sally Ann band. The Oompa type. Brass drums etc. It had a deep effect on me even at that young age. As I listened I found the Holy Spirit speaking to me and calling me although at the time I didn't really understand it. Its interesting one of main opposition actually got saved.

Brother Don Langebartels went to be with the Lord over the weekend. Don't know if any here had set under his ministry. He headed up the Zion Lake Christian Camp near North Vernon.

I have a lot of good memories from that place. Back in the day there was a Seminar held there every weekend in the summer with most of the ministers from Faith Assembly coming down and preaching there. Tom Hamilton and other ministers from around the country preached there also. I remember the summer camp was a great ministry to the youth. Remember to pray for the family.

Sadly missed but with the Lord.

I just found out that Mark and Patty (Seamon) Katzer's son, Danny, passed.

I don't have any other details right now.

This family is very loving and has been a blessing to all who know them.

Please lift them up in prayer.


Shalom,

I work in Long Term Care (nursing home.)

I have watched dozens of people grow older, decline, and eventually die. I have often wondered how Father picks the moment for people to pass. I think I have seen a small insight into this subject.

"Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day.....For the things that are seen are turning to dust, but the things that are unseen endure forever. II Cor. 4:16, 18.

I see old people with bodies that look like prunes. They are wrinkled and creased. Fat deposits of youth are gone and faces and bodies are sucken and thin. The skin is paper thin. Eyes become dim. Ears no longer hear. The memory, short and long term are gone. The list goes on.

I know some are believing for their youth to be renewed, but I digress in making my point.

What appears to be a prune holds a precious gem inside if one has descended in order to ascend. You must want His Kingdom to come and for the Kingdoms of this world to diminish. We must let go of our agendas and our egos. We must despise the advent of self.

Like Paul, I have been with much and with little. I have lost family and friends. I have learned to be content in all things. What a peace! I have had to dangle in the air and He has asked me to jump off of cliffs. That is the way I put it, anyway.

In order to become a gem inside, sometimes He will ask you to live in exile to this world. I have never been more content in doing so.

I believe that when the gem has grown (closeness to Him) and when it sparkles the most from inside the prune (fruit of the spirit) some pass over into his presence.

I have witnessed a few marvelous things when people pass. They see heaven. They see angels. Some are horrified with what they see, but still refuse to receive Salvation when I share with them. Our Salvation is truly a gift.

So, my prayer is to press on. I glory in the excile of this life. My life is His. He gives me dreams about people, words of knowledge, and what to pray. We don't have to be around people to minister life in every case.

I miss my earthly and Heavenly Father. In His time, I will be out of the mess of this world. In the meantime, a gem is growing and sparkling more and more until He decides what to do with it. Smile

Someone asked the question on Lonely planet how to visit Israel and have a polite political conversation. Here are some of the responses. Not trying to offend anyone but I just thought it was kind of funny.

Here was the question

My understanding is that Israel is an intensely political country and that it is often quite difficult to divorce political discussion from daily life. It is part and parcel of it. As well, as Israel has what some might call a disproportionate place in world affairs, it might not be difficult for a visitor to be drawn into a discussion of politics. Does anyone have any tried and proven pointers on the art and etiquette of participating in civil political discussions in Israel? (Operative word civil) Is there anything a well-intentioned but politically aware visitor should be aware of and avoid so as not to give offence?

Some responses

Using "ettiquette" and "Israel" in the same sentence is an oxymoron. Smile

There's a saying among Jerusalem-based diplomats which says: "The first month you'll ask Israelis what they think of the conflict, the second month you'll ask Palestinians what they think of the conflict, the third month on you'll stop asking and you'll get drunk."

There is another saying, that if you visit Israel for a week, you go home and write a book about it. If you go for a month, you write a magazine article. If you go for a year, you don't write anything because you no longer know what to write...

not only do etiquette and israel not belong in the same sentence, i have rarely heard here (in almost 40 years) a civil political discussion! as mentioned, everyone here has very passionate political opinions and is very eager to express them. very very few are willing to engage in a "discussion" , a word that implies dialogue, some sort of give and take, listen and respond. a political "discussion" might be described as more than one israeli offering his/her opinions as holy truth very loudly! and often simultaneously.

Well put. I feel that your advice about week, month, year is true about life as well. The more I learn, the more I realise that I don't know anything. Or as Socrates said, the only thing I know is that I don't know anything.

Does anyone know what causes it? The reason I ask is there was an article which mentioned it in one of our National dallies here in Canada today. Has there ever been any revelation come through our circles or charismatic circles about it?

From the article

And imagine how the latest news — that previous abortions can raise the risk of autism by 26% in later children carried to full term — will be received. Most reports on the October 2011 Harvard University study didn’t even mention the abortion-autism link, just the gestational diabetes-autism connection.

As I'm sure all of you are aware that followed my excellent advice to sign up for Stratfor their site has been hacked.

You need to change all your passwords as the hackers got all the info you provided to them.

What a hassle. I gave them my primary email with my usual password. Went to gmail and found a message from google that they thought my info had been hacked there.

What a hassle. Change all your passwords for whatever info they have.

Also any email from Stratfor is not valid. They are only using facebook & twitter to communicate.

They also have my real name so now I have to change facebook and everything.

As I read about Christine O'Donnell and see an occasional TV interview with her I thought this would be a good argument for why Christians shouldn't be involved in politics. She started with the 'Tea Party's' endorsemet and is now running as the Republican candidate for Congress from Delaware. Of course, mainstream 'conservative' Chrisitanity just automatically jumps on the bandwagon because no one wants to endorse a 'liberal'. But after reading a few quotes by her I'd question why Christians would support her.

Some statements attributed to her...

"My faith has influenced my personal life."

"My faith hasn't influenced my politics."

"God told me to run for office."


On her experience with christianity...

"There's only truth and not truth, you're either very good or evil.
I went back to my dorm and asked myself what I was."


Concerning her involvement with witchcraft...

"One of my first dates with a witch was on a Satanic alter, and I didn't know it."


I don't believe in reincarnation or cloning, so I know she's not Sarah Palin...but why do they remind me of each other? So for those who believe that it's a Christians duty and responsibility to participate in the 'American process' of elections of government leaders, what would be the 'Lord's will' for how you'd cast your vote should you live in Delaware? Vote for the 'christian' conservative Republican (who upon a little research proves to be something besides what she claims) or, vote for the liberal Democrat (who you know will endorse abortion, gay rights, the healthcare bill, bigger government, and whatever else ungodly thing that comes up)?
Just something to consider when making choices concerning which kingdom you want to be a part of...btw: one of them will be elected, and the downward spiral will continue.

The question many have pondered over the years is…….

Why did I not get healed when I prayed ?
Take this quiz and see what the answer is !



1) Do you have any unforgiveness in your heart, hate or resentment ?
Mt 6:12-15, Mk 11:25, James 5:14-15.

2) Do you believe that you have Jobs trial or Pauls thorn ?
If so, do you have Jobs righteousness or Pauls abundance of revelation ?
Remember this! Job got healed Chapter 42 and Paul wasn’t sick.

3) Do you blame God or charge him with putting or allowing this Infirmity on you ?
Read John 10:10, Acts 10:38

4) Have you replaced Devine Healing with Medical Science ?
Read Mk 11:22, Mt 6:24, Ex 23:23, Heb 13:8

5) Have you asked for Healing, In Faith, without wavering ?
Read James 1:1-8

6) Are you Fully persuaded, that what God had promised, He is able to perform ?
Read
Rom 4:21,
Mk 11:22-24,
James 5:15,
Mk 16:17-18
1 Jh 5:13-15

If the answer to questions 1 thru 4 are No !
And Yes! to 5 and 6, then stand fast in Faith, in Gods Word !
Your Healing is on its way !

If your answer to any of the questions 1 thru 4 are Yes!
And No ! to 5 and 6,
Then humble yourselves before God, read and believe His Promises
allow the Holy Spirit to impart faith to your heart so you will be Healed !

Just wanted to let those who are busy deleting messages that there is a
quicker method than deleting them one at a time... I can delete in bulk
if I know the reason and criteria you are using. I hate to see someone
wasting a lot of time when it is totally unnecessary as I can do it in
minutes instead of the laborious method of removing them one at a time.

I'm sure you are trying to be respectful to the other members who have
taken time to post; deleting your notes from the midst of the others one
at a time can be an arduous task.

Let me know if you need help in redeeming the time!

Blessings,
William

Psalm 62

A Calm Resolve to Wait for the Salvation of God

Truly my soul silently waits for God:
From Him comes my salvation.
He only is my rock and my salvation;
He is my defense;
I shall not be greatly moved.

How long will you attack a man?
You shall be slain, all of you,
Like a leaning wall and a tottering fence.
They only consult to cast him down from his high position;
They delight in lies;
They bless with their mouth,
But they curse inwardly.

My soul, wait silently for God alone,
For my expectation is from Him.
He only is my rock and my salvation;
He is my defense;
I shall not be moved.
In God is my salvation and my glory;
The rock of my strength,
And my refuge, is in God.

Trust in Him at all times, you people;
Pour out your heart before Him;
God is a refuge for us.

Surely men of low degree are a vapor,
Men of high degree are a lie;
If they are weighed on the scales,
They are altogether lighter than vapor.
Do not trust in oppression,
Nor vainly hope in robbery;
If riches increase,
Do not set your heart on them.

God has spoken once,
Twice I have heard this:
That power belongs to God.
Also to You, O Lord, belongs mercy;
For You render to each one according to his work.


God has given this Psalm to me for the past few months about His return. I know we are not to walk in fear of man or Satan, but I think a good dose of the fear of God never hurt anyone.

I was just wondering if anyone else is REALLY being dealt with about these things. I don't want to miss the first load!

Blessings,

GWB

I believe Jesus would have me share my story with those who are interested. Please email me, in this forum, and I will send it to you. Due to the nature of my situation, I need to know who you are. I went to FA from six months before the "Exodus" to the new building until 1986; surely it cannot be very hard. Does this mean we are now officially underground? Rolling Eyes Smile

If I do not know you, I will have to have another member on this forum recommend that it is OK to send it to you. I am sorry, but that is the only way I know how to do it unless someone has a suggestion for me. Smile

It is a story of great battle and great victory. It is a rehearsal in words as to a type of persecution that I believe is near. It is also a story of restoration and not condemnation.

Blessings, GWB
