Let’s Return to Christian Unity – by Kokichi Kurosaki

This morning I got out of bed and read the above book on “Ending Division in the Body of Christ” from cover to cover, it’s a small book.   I would like to thank Kevin for sending it to me, I cannot describe how encouraged I am after reading it!  I am more certain than ever that the Lord really has spoken to me over the years and directed my paths in these issues.

I am now more bold than ever to call out sectarianism, to speak against those who are nothing more than self-interested small business owners, selling their deceptive wares to all who will buy them.  Well let me tell you folks, the Lord our God HATES A FALSE BALANCE (Pro. 11:1).  When a salesman promises to deliver a product and you buy that product for the agreed price, you were told what you were buying, but the salesman tricked you, he used deceptive weights on his scales and you were none the wiser, that’s what the Lord hates!

Why I am bold in the Truth of God’s Word.

We are living at a time of great confusion, we are living at a time of great debate and disagreement on what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ.  Spiritually, it seems like all the armies of the world are gathered together against a spiritual land, referred to in Gal. 4:26 as Jerusalem from above, the mother of us all.   It is the Devil himself that has propagated the lie that our issues are with a carnal, earthly kingdom called “Israel” from below, when Gal. ch. 4 clearly says that this carnal earthly kingdom today is in bondage with her children and is compared to Hagar, the mother of Ishmael.   Ishmael was not the child of promise, Isaac was the child of promise.

“Why should we Love the Church”, from the Harlot, John MacArthur

Tags

, , , , , , ,

There is almost nothing I am more angered by, more repulsed by, than the following claim by the harlot described in Isaiah 47:  (Isa 47:8)  “I am, and none else beside me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children:”

Here is the audio by John MacArthur that set me off today, entitled “Why should we Love the Church”

It’s actually blasphemy of the worst sort to claim that Jesus Christ did something or built something that he did not do.  Just like it is blasphemy to claim that Jesus Christ cast out devils by the spirit of the devil, it is also blasphemy to say the Jesus Christ built the institution of John MacArthur’s Church, when he did not!

So you want to be a watchman do you?

Well you’re probably going to say I am crazy – again – but you know how that everyone wants to be a watchman today? Watching the Catholic Church, I kind of thought that they were always apostate, that doesn’t seem new to me, but anyway you are watching them and of course every other false preacher in the spiritual land, defiled by the inhabitants of the land.

Is the Bible the Word of God?

Tags

, , , , , , ,

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?”

Rebuke, Correction and Humility, how does it work?

Tags

, , , , , , , , , , , , ,

(Php 2:12-15) Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.  For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.  Do all things without murmurings and disputings:  That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;

We are sadly living at a time that no one receives rebuke or correction anymore, I rebuke you, you rebuke me, I claim that you are prideful and you claim that I am prideful, so when all is said and done we sound like two children saying “Yes”, “No”, “Yes”, “No”… just for the fun of it!  We are so far removed from the scriptures above, so that everything we do, just about, is with murmurings and disputings.  Even when some false peace maker comes along in their own pride and demands that peace is more important than truth, they demand that murmurings and disputings must come to an end so that they can calmly take control without dispute,  we still in our hearts are full of murmurs and disputes!

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

Tags

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?

So how bad do you really think it is going to get before the end?

Tags

Many years ago I heard a man teach on the internet many truths about the Lord, about the present apostasy, about the end, things I believed that the Lord was, or had already shown me.  I started attending his fellowship online and was desirous to be apart of a family.  Being a father of a large family myself and having a vast history of experience in the institutional church system, and considering that I had already been separated from that system for years, I was looking for a family where Jesus was the head.  It had been made clear to me by the scriptures that Jesus never started ONE organization, built ONE building, and the New Testament church was not a building, but a family with Jesus at the head.  The important factor that existed in the NT believers were the people who were lively stones built together on a sure foundation, not a building or an organization.

How shall they Preach except they be sent?

When it is said in John 1:1, “In the beginning was the word and the word was God”, most people who read that scripture don’t understand it, it goes right over their head or rather past their spiritual understanding.  How is it that Jesus is the Word of God?

(Joh 1:4-9) In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. John the Baptist was not that light, but he came to bare witness of that light, he was sent from God.  The Word of God is a person. Continue reading

Raise the standard and sow not among thorns

(Jer 4:3) For thus saith the LORD to the men of Judah and Jerusalem, Break up your fallow ground, and sow not among thorns.

Many in the remnant community, outside the structured harlot church system, are trying the best they can to be salt and light, they wish to obey the great commission. (Matt. 28:20)   I fear many of these people are attempting to obey the bible like some sort of rule book, they have not been sent by the Holy Spirit to preach, yet they persist.  (Jer 23:21) I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied.  (Rom 10:15) And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!

All of you, especially you of the remnant community should be very well aware that you should not read the bible like a rule book, but instead you all should be led by the Spirit of God.  It shouldn’t be you living in you; and you doing the things that you think are right, but instead it should be Christ living in you and the Holy Spirit leading you.
