For those who take the time to read this blog, the things on my heart, I appreciate you, thank you.  I do realize that I am not a person of many words, I don’t post on this blog by necessity, because I am afraid that you won’t listen to me unless I keep your attention.  I try to speak when I believe it is important and when I believe I really have something that needs to be said.  I will not attempt to be heard for my many words, rather, I would hope that I be judged on the value of the things I do say.

As a man who heads his house and works in a small heating & air business, I do get busy, trying very hard to keep up with the work load and at the same time desirous to not be over charged by the things of this world, I do need to be led by the Lord, and I always would be pleased to hear of your prayers for me.

As you may know, I have for many years, separated myself from a host of proclaiming Christians.  My reasons for doing so, separating myself, has always been godly, I have NEVER rejected anyone for any reason other than my fear of God and the love of the truth.

Fellowship when the Foundations are Destroyed

Dear Brother, I would ask the question today, are you upright in heart?  Do you really, HONESTLY, want to know the Truth and be set free by that truth, no matter what the cost?  Are you truly willing to be wrong, if you really are wrong?  Do you really want to be corrected, do you really want your way to be made straight?  If you truly are upright in heart then the answer to all of the above would have to be a resounding “YES!!”   Read the short 11th chapter of Psalms, it says much more than you might think, and then let’s talk about it.

Is the Bible the Word of God?

I am going to say a little about this today, “Is the Bible the Word of God?”,  and what people really mean when they say this or when they say the opposite.  If you want a better article with more scriptures, I suggest that you read “The Word of God is a Person”.   It is really simple, the Word of God is a Person, because the scriptures written, say exactly that in John 1:1.  I guess there are many which would like to re-write the scriptures so they say “In the beginning was the bible and the bible was God”, but that is not what is written by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, is it?  So what is it that makes people demand that you claim, “The Bible is the Word of God, even though the Bible it’s self says otherwise?”

I don’t need any man to teach me, I just listen to the Holy Spirit

Of course the scriptures say:  (1Jn 2:27) But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.

Many look to this one scripture today and claim that they don’t listen to men, they only listen to God.  They very well may spend hours listening to a number of men, of which they will say, “I eat the meat and spit out the bones”.  I always am puzzled and greatly amazed at a people who believe they are being taught by the Holy Spirit, they believe that no man need teach them, and yet they will admit to listening to men preach who preach error, all the while these people claim that they handle error by spiting out the bones.

So let me get this straight, you listen to error from men you respect as brothers, you even can find no one who agrees with you on everything, and in most cases you run into people regularly who claim to personally hear from God, with whom you agree very little, and yet you don’t see any problem with your faith in applying 1John 2:27 to your life?

His Eyelids try the children of men – If the foundations be destroyed, what shall the righteous do?

(Psa 11:3-4) If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do? The LORD is in his holy temple, the LORD’S throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.   It is the glory of God to conceal a matter and the honor of kings to search it out (Pro. 25:2).

When the Lord gave me a revelation of the fear of God, it became crystal clear to me that God is a God who hides his truth. (Isa. 6:9; Isa. 29:10; Matt. 11:25) The Lord made it clear to me that living truth is valuable, like a man who sold all that he had to buy one field containing a pearl of great price.  Today again, the Lord’s eyelids try the hearts of the children of men, but the foundations of truth are broken.  I cannot even speak, I am so devastated by the utter foolishness parading it’s self as honorable.  The foundations of truth are destroyed, so the righteous are left with little they can do.  All truth comes by the grace and mercy of God, not by works of righteousness by the hands of carnal flesh, but the Lord’s eyelids try the hearts of men to see if any man truly seeks for God with a pure heart.

The Word of God is a Person

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.” (Joh 1:1-5 av)

In the beginning was the Word, there was no book called the “bible”, yet the Word existed with God and the Word was God. Today there is an Anti-Christ spirit that says “the book we call the bible, is the Word of God”, yet this is not true, the Word of God existed clearly before the bible was ever written. We know that this is the spirit of the Anti-Christ that wishes to be worshiped as God, rather than the true God, which is in the person of Jesus Christ. People that worship this Anti-Christ, which means “in place of Christ” demand that I also worship the same Anti-Christ that they worship, by claiming that anything that can be said, believed and received, must also be stated “exactly the same way, according to their own understanding, in the bible”. These people do not believe that God reveals any truth by his Holy Spirit; they believe that truth is found by the use of “tools”, human tools, hermeneutical exegesis and intellectual pursuit or hard study.

Will being in a pale called Christian Orthodoxy save you?

The question I raise today is, can Christian Orthodoxy save you? I know that “Orthodoxy” is a term that is the counterpart to the term “Heterodoxy”, which means heresy.  So many Christian teachers seem to hang their hat on being within the “Pale of Christian Orthodoxy”, that is why I just wanted to raise the question.

(Joh 8:31-32) Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

Since Jesus said that the truth will make you free, if Christian Orthodoxy is that truth he was speaking about, can a person be “Orthodox” and still go to hell and be lost?  Clearly Jesus said that if you continue in his word, that ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free – he who is free is free indeed, and we know that ALL free people will be saved, they are children of the King.

Why is judgment so corrupt, even among Christians?

I was speaking to a young man recently who was fairly knowledgeable of the scriptures, not as knowledgeable as I am, but I was impressed.  He and his family are very influential in the church denomination they are members of.  As we were speaking of the things of God, it became apparent that I only had Jesus to uphold, not an organized religion, but the young man I was speaking with had his organized religion, which to him was the same as Jesus to uphold, or at least, along with Jesus to uphold.  After spending some time speaking with the young man I came to realize something so familiar to me, something I have experienced over and over and over again in my life, so many times I cannot count them; I had entered into a conversation with a brand of religion that believed it’s self superior to mine.  As I and the young man became engulfed in the conversation, it became apparent that he found my testimony suspect, he clearly believe his way superior to mine, he had an organization to uphold, I only had Jesus to uphold.

The Theologian’s Imaginary Church

Everyone who claims to be a true Christian, knows that they must submit themselves to the authority of Christ. You cannot even be serious about claiming Christ as your savior and king, unless you are dead to self and alive in him.
“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” (Ga 2:20 AV)
We do not belong to ourselves, we belong to Christ, so it seems obvious to me that being a follower of Christ means that we, without question, must obey him. What if someone could come along and impress you by what ever means, that he is a right representation of Christ and therefore you should obey him? And if you should obey him, you should also obey those who he appoints over you? Jesus did have Apostles, those of whom he made his disciples; (the word apostle means “sent one”) he instructed them in the following verses:
