			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Part 4: the lords words<br />
While i was in the process of reading the bible one night by myself after everyone had gone to bed, i began to hear a voice in my head speaking to me in old english. I asked the voice why it was speaking to me in old english and its response was &quot;because that is how you expect to hear the lord sound.&quot; And it was right, so i said to the voice please talk to me in normal english for i bleieve you to be the lord and would to understand your words better and so he did. I then thought maybe i was going crazy and just hearing voices in my head so i said lord please make it evident to me when your speaking with me so i know that it is you im talking to. So he said to me when i heard his voice from now on i would have a symbol of a cross when i closed my eyes and when i saw this cross i would know he was talking. And sure enough i did. So then i said lord what is it you would like me to do, and he put an idea in my head he wanted me to go from church to church.. during the portion of the service where the pastor asks is there anyone here who would like to be saved i was to say i do and i was to go up before him and set an example for the souls of the lost. And so i said sure lord i will do this. So this past sunday I got up for church and started to dress in fine sunday clothes. He told me no don't dress like this for I want you to appear as a stray. I said ok and i dressed very casually. He told me that this day one soul would be free'd and helped to see his light i was like ok cool sounds good to me. So i got to church with my girlfriend and we went into the service. As it turned out everyone at this church was wearing very casual clothes to the service. It was revealed to me later that he actually just wanted me to be confortable since i was sick and knew that the church i was going to was not under such strict dress standards. Anyways for you to understand this next part you'll have to release that sometimes I have dreams that predict future events in my life and occassionally i can remember them. Maybe some of you also share this, i want you to know that this is how the feeling of deja vu is begotten. Now anyways upon the beginning of the service there was a presentation by the guest speaker Mike Bartee; this slide show triggered a deja vu and it came to my realisation that this presentation was going to be of great importance. I asked the lord if he was going to give me a great message during this service, to which he told me I'll try to throw something in for you. Now upon hearing the works of this man it turns out he was a traveling evangalist who spent his time going from church to church sermoning on depression.. i myself am not one to suffer from this however my girlfriend has for a very long time and has been going to therapy on and off since she was a small child. Sometime during the service i realised that my role in the help of christ had been realised not just in this service but in that i was going to be a soldier for god so to speak and i went into the bathroom overwhelmed with excitement for i had finally realised my mission, or at least what i thought it to be. I thought i was going to be a great christian rapper; and despite part of that probaly still being true there is much more. Anyways as i got home feeling miserable from the illness and fever overwhelming my body i began to talk more to the lord and i said a thing he put forth for me to say as a way of saving myself and devoting my life to him. I guess it would be comparible to what a minister might have you repeat if you were to get saved at a church. Anyways he told me that the part of the mesasge i was to take from the service was something he had said about healing not being instantaneous and that this was reffering to my flu. So anyways before i was going to go to bed i began feeling pair in my side; i said to myself ill just web md this and hope to find out what was causing it. At which point the lord told me no don't do this you'll only believe something to be wrong with you that isn't and you'll go to the hospital to be given treatments for something you didn't even have. I was hesitant to listen to him and tried to check my symptoms anyways. Upon getting to the site there was a banner that said foods to make you feel better and a picture of a cucumber and a tomato. I started to go to symptom checker and at that point my internet died completely. He told me to eat a tomato and go to bed. So i did and awoke with a temperature of 98 degrees, my fever had completely resided from the 102 it had been.<br />
 <br />
Part 5: The lords plan continued<br />
So that night before i had slept i had laid out an agenda for the next day i had some specific things i was supposed to do. I was going to clean up the house then i was to research and inform people about the grave dangers of the swine flu vaccination *if you are interested in this yourself i recommend you taking time to view the american chronicles article about the vaccination as this site wont let me post links yet , and then this <br />
* and i was supposed to memorize one of my songs to perform that night at the venue. So i spent serveral hours doing some things like bathing my dog and various others tasks then went to work on trying to memorize one of my songs. I found it to be to no avail as i was having no luck at all. So i went down stairs and began doing stuff regarding the swine flu. It was at this time that i had somewhat decided that i didn't want to go that night because not only had i not finished memorizing the song but i was still sick. So i had decided and told my girlfriend that i was going to wait a week to continue with this and she said ok. All of the sudden someone on aim who i was not having a conversation with randomly sent me this &quot;While everyone's lost, the battle is won With all these things that I've done.&quot; He said nothing more to follow this and didn't explain it at all.. so i looked up where it was from figuring it to be song lyrics. It turned out to be from All These Things That I've Done a song by the killers i then asked him why he sent it to me and he simply said it was a good song. From this point i took it upon myself to read the lyrics this turned out to be the song with I've got soul but I'm not a soldier. This made me think he felt like i was giving up so I said I'm not going to give up this mission. And i began writing down the lyrics to the song on paper deciding i was just going to read them off this *since i had no printer*. As i began writing them down my body began to be filled with this strange but powerful pain and sickness as i continued to write them i told myself i wasn't going to to stop i didn't care if the devil was inflicting this pain in me, as I was near at a close he told me it was a test the pain was to see if i was going to do what he needed me to despite personal pain. I took the song to the venue and got to the door with it, as the door man asked me for my cover and my ID i told him i had neither with me I simply had i song that needed to be heard. He said &quot;let me get getty.&quot; So getty came outside and after some small talk and me explaining to him i didn't have any money he agreed to hear my song. As i was reading it I could see a tear come in his eye at the conclusion to the song he told his associate &quot;lace him,&quot; as if to say produce him despite his lack of funds. So i gave them the swine flu information i had come to deliver and i left. As I was driving home i had a feeling in my body unlike any feeling i had ever experienced and i went home crying tears of joy. So when i got to my house I had to let my dog out to potty and I had to let the dog out of the owner; i had kept them seperate because every time they were around each other they had tried to fight. So i asked the lord, will you help me fix this will you make it so these dogs are friends? He told me to bring the dogs together with the help of my girlfriend at first they were going to fight and afterwords they were going to be great friends. So i put them together and sure enough they fought like crazy, in fact i put them each away after my girlfriend had said &quot;I think thats enough for today i'm pretty sure they've been stressed out enough for one day.&quot; So i began doing dishes and at this point the lord told me go back to this they are not finished and i said she said to do it another day and he directly said NO. So i told her what i was going to do she said she was not going to help and i told her that it was fine i had intended to do it myself anyways. So i brought the dogs together upstairs without anyone around except them and the lords presence. As he told me they became friends with no fighting after a minute or two. And since then have been great buddys.<br />
 <br />
Part 6: The Revelation:<br />
So out of nowhere the lord made it clear to me what his plan for me was and he put it to me in a method i could understand. He explained to me that the matrix movies were in fact a biblical prophecy. He explained to me that neo was to represent me a man who sought answers about the true nature of the world and what was really going on. He explained to me that he sent the white rabbit in the form of that man i had meant to help to open my understanding of everything that was really taking place on this planet. And from there the choice between the red bill and the blue pill was when i had to decide if i was going to believe in god and all that he does or choose to take the blue pill and believe the devil to be god and just go on living my normal life. As prophesized i choose to take the red pill and he began talking to me directly. Now my role as neo was to explain to all of his children that we are living in the matrix. This is to mean that the machines are to represent the devil here on earth, and the agents are to represent his followers and his minions (the 13 elite bloodlines and all of the people who make up the 33 degree masons and the illuminati). These people much like the agents in the movie operate above the law and have no fear of consciquences because in this world the devils world they are in control. My job here is to unplug you from the matrix to let you know whats really going on. Please take it open yourself to go to your local library and check out and read the book codex magica it will help to describe to you alot thats happening behind the scenes. As you begin to understand and open your mind continue seeking information about the true origin of the masons and the nature of the illuminati. You will find many people that you may have suspected of evil and maybe some you didn't to be part of this great conspiracy stretching all the way up to the president, and the presidents before him all the way back to nixon *who in fact was faced with impeachment after he made it clear his plan was to tell people what was really going on*. Now my brothers I warn you that there is another part to this prophecy and due to the second part of its nature it is imparitive you are to disconnect yourself with the world of the flesh asap. For the agent &quot;agent smith&quot; in the movie walks amongst us today, this agent is to represent the antichrist. He is out there trying to destroy all of gods children at this very moment and if you do a bit of research I would bet you, you figure out for yourself who he is. The Lord also explained futher that now that i was through the first movie i was entering into the second one where many minds will be freed. This as you may know leads up to a great war shown in the 3rd movie. This war if you haven't guessed by now is the prophecised rapture. I know the reason for the rapture and have been explained the meaning of life on earth. This will all be revealed to you in due time but for now I'm just to tell you to seek enlightment, search for what it is that is really going on right now and it will present itself to you in grave detail. I must also impart the message of proverbs upon you. You need to re examine every aspect of your life and anything you are doing that is not righteous needs to be cut short now as there is little time now coming to the impending disaster. As I said I'm somewhere in the midst of the second movie now more then likely at the beginning, but it needs to be said that with me being here and this prophecy coming to light it is only a short time before the 3rd movie happens. Make sure your allegances are in the right place and you stand on the side of god ready to go forth in any task he is to put to you. In the meantime gain all of the information you can because it is through this you will truly gain understanding.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>This whole work is something I strongly recommend reading however it is extremely wrong and such is broken up into individual parts to make it easier on the reader, this way if you leave off somewhere you can come back and have a stable starting point for its continuation, much like the chapters of a book<br />
 <br />
Part 1: The Beginning<br />
I am new here, in fact I'm new to christianity, however how i got here and why I'm here seem to be pretty important no just for me, but for you so why don't i begin my story. I don't know where to begin this story so for the sake of my own confusion *I'm still new to my role* I will start somewhere around 8 months ago. It was approximately 8 months ago through a billiards league i joined that i met a man named mike. Now mike upon meeting him struck me as a truly unique and good person so i befriended him, despite the seeming fact that nobody else really had. Anyways as i grew to know this man and try to gather a bit about the truths of his reality i found out many interesting things. For this man was not like your average every day man blind to the living situation he was in, he had a great knowledge about earth and whats really going on. Through months of talking to him and asking him questions i began to gather an interest in his message and wanted to explore what he had to say more deeply. At this point your probaly thinking this man was a christian and he helped me to find the lord, and though he did indirectly influence this thats not exactly or really at all what he was about. Mike is and was what you would call a conspiracy theorist he has spent great amounts of time probing for the truth to figure out whats really going on behind the curtain. Much to my surprise in origionally talking to him he explained to me that there was a secret orginization who was in control of everything this organization being called the illuminati. He imparted to me that the Masons made up a majority if not all of the members of this group. At first i didn't really have any interest in any of this, until one day he explained to me jay z to be a mason, i was sceptacle as i dont just accept anything as truth without probing a bit so i did some research.. it turned out much to my surprise that his claims were in fact right. Shocked by this i wanted to find out more about there agenda and what was really going on. I asked Mike for his view on things and he told me he believed lucifer created earth and these people in his secret organization were acting on his behalf. Now that seemed a bit fishy to me, so i wanted to see for myself and decide what to believe before i choose to believe anything. I started off reading a work known as the brotherhood of the snake, it was what he was trying to use to substantiate his claim to me. I read this information and found it to be very interesting; from which i did some research on early egyptian culture and a bunch of other early sumarian and mesopotamian history. As i chroniloged through time in this research endevaor i kept finding the same thing the masons being connected to satanism. Over and over.. i also found out that a majority of the united states presidents have been 33'rd degree masons including our very first one George Washington. I began to accept not that the devil was the father but more so just that there was in fact a devil. I then started looking at some of the things he's influenced to try to see if he in fact was the lord. I found nothing but grief and bloodshed tied to everything he had helped to create and do since pretty much the beginning of time. And i found most of his core teachings to be disgusting. If you are interested in fundamentalists of his core teachings and the messages they have, you can read the work of Albert Pike or Anton Lavey. I also found a found a few other sources. Anyways it wasn't until I read the book Codex Magica by a christian authoer by the name of Texe Marrs that i began to get the picture. Along with reading this work i started reading the bible and from there i decided not only with believing in the devil that i did also believed in God. And more to this point based on the two sides and the messages they each had i choose to connect to the one that fit my personality traits the best (I am a man who has a firm belief in not lying not stealing not cheating and doing what is right in every situation). So as you can probaly guess i decided i was going to support Jesus Christ and all of his teachings and put this whole thing into work in my life. <br />
 <br />
part 2<br />
The backstory, you have to take into accord that through the past few months i had decided that i was going to be a rapper. I had been freestyling quite a bit and in fact have been rapping a large portion of my life. But it was only recently that i relalised through peer review that i was good enough to make money off of this. One day while living here in metro detroit i decided to go to an open mic night at a rap venue to perform freestyle in front of the crowd. In doing so they were all very pleased with my abilitys and i met some interesting people. The only real important person of this encouter for the stake of the continuing story was a man named Getty. Getty is a local record producer in my area and is the man that provides the funding for the venue at which i had performed. This information will become pertinent later as my story progresses. Anyways so i began trying to write music to reflect the views i had seem in mainstream rap music, however i was at a moral delema because i shared no personal views with that of the music, and because apparently i had other stuff i needed to write about i was expereience writers block. So one day i said to myself &quot;I'm going to write this music in a manner conducive to my own beliefs and i began making uplifting powerful music, music i thought god himself would appreciate me bringing into this world. In doing this i asked for his help in my endevor and in such i was blessed with a sudden onset of inspiration. In less then a few hours i was able to create 5 very powerful songs, each having these titles and messages to reflect them (racism, karma, respect, health, family). All of these songs turned out absolutely beautiful. So i kept these songs saved on my computer for a time when i would have more money to produce them because at the time being, with no job and no money i was not going to be able to do it any time soon.<br />
 <br />
Part 3 prayer working directly for me upon asking<br />
So i was facing a problem, the place i was living was no longer going to allow me to live there due to the fact i had just gotten a puppy. My parents who had there own dog were not condusive with the idea of another dog coming into there home so i was to leave with my long time girlfriend and future wife to find a new home. Upon praying for assistance it was given to me the day after i was kicked out. A friend of my girlfriend took us in and allowed me to stay with him, the only condition being the puppy wasn't to come. I remorsefully agreed to this and gave the puppy to a friend of mine as i waited for someone to be interested in it from craigslist. Meanwhile unbeknown to my friend and my girlfriend who also wasn't happy with the dog anymore since it had compromised a living space and was threatening to do this again. I prayed to the lord asking him to let me keep my son. It couldn't have been a day or two later but not only had my friend agreed to accept the dog into his home, but my girlfriend had began to see this puppy as her son too and refused to sell him. Meanwhile me and my girlfriend had come down with the flu and with it a very dasteredly cough purpetuated by the poor air quality in the upstairs bedroom we were staying in. I once again prayed to god for help and asked him to provide me with an answer a solution to this. He gave me the idea of getting an air filter. Now keep in mind I have no money as i said and my girl friends minimun wages jobs only provide enough money to pay our living expenses with nothing left over. So i went to my parents and proposed my problem to them *you need to know that my mom is a firm believer in not buying me anything the same with my dad and it has been this way for quite some time* so i explained to her my problem and explained to my dad and they told me they didn't have the money, they couldn't help however maybe in a few days after my mom had collected a check she would be able to provide me with at least a portion of the money necissary to purchase it. Much to my surprise as i got in the car my girlfriend pulled out the money from her pocket and told me my mom had given it to her in secret because she thought my dad would be upset if he knew she had given it to us. So we bought the air filter and as expected it worked like a miracle to help us to get better.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>History tells us that no one knew the exact date of Jesus' birth. <br />
 <br />
The Bible clarifies this because Herod (the King of Jerusalem at that time) didn't know when Jesus was born and therefore killed all the boys two years old and under, trying to kill Jesus <b>(Read Matthew 2:13-16).</b> <br />
 <br />
None of the apostles of Jesus or his other followers attempted to celebrate his birth but instead kept his commandment in eating bread and drinking wine every Passover, in remembrance of his death. When and who started this celebration of December 25th as the birthday of Jesus?<br />
 <br />
 The New Standard Encyclopedia, Volume 2, states <b><i>&quot;The ADOPTION of December 25th was decreed by Bishop Liberius of Rome in 354.&quot;</i></b> You mean to tell me this Bishop Liberius figured out the birth of Jesus over 300 years later, when Herod didn't know? Maybe this date was chosen for another reason. <br />
 <br />
The New Standard continues, <i><b>&quot;This date was probably chosen because it coincided with the Pagan festival of the winter solstice&quot; (Read you history book).</b></i></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I like to open cans of worms, anyone noticed?<br />
 <br />
I have been listening to Paul Washer's preaching lately.  You can listen to him on sermonaudio.com if you are interested.  He preaches some pretty tough things about the way we preach the gospel.  His POV is quite radical and if followed would require a complete overhaul of the current church model.  I've thought some of these things for years, as I pour over Scripture, but he articulates them so much more effectively than I seem able to do.<br />
 <br />
I am coming to the conclusion that the church model we use is fatally flawed in a wide variety of ways.  Anyone else thinking about these things?  Anyone looking at the biblical church and trying to find a resemblance to what most of us attend today?</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>HE was national news. When Pilate handed Christ over to a death squad it wasn't for spreading hopelessness. <br />
<br />
Jesus was too dangerously fascinating. He created too much excitement. &quot;All the world has gone out after Him” said His jealous enemies. But, &quot;The common people heard Him gladly.&quot; <br />
<br />
Police came to arrest Him - but were captivated by Him. They explained &quot;Nobody ever talked like this Man.&quot; JESUS SAVES!<br />
<br />
Jesus? If it’s HIM who saves, ALL He does is wonderful. He came to bless, not to maim. <br />
<br />
He left no trail of depression, no holier-than-thou humbug. <br />
<br />
Despite the cynics: people who turn to Him are a lot better off than those who don't. That is not debatable. <br />
<br />
It is obvious, unless we keep our eyes shut. THIS IS THE JESUS WE LOVE AND ADORE. Do you agree?</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Hello brothers and sisters,<br />
<br />
 I have a question to ask of you all. Many times in the Old Testament, and especially in Exodus and Deuteronomy the Bible speaks of the sins of the father and how God will visit their iniquity unto the third and fourth generation out. Is this all really clear cut? Does God really punish the sins of a father out to his grandchildren and great-grandchildren? Does this apply to us today? Or is this of the Old Covenant, and is not binding to those of us covered under the New Covenant with Jesus? <br />
<br />
 I ask this because this is a question brought up frequently with in my family as my Dad as always feared that my hearing-loss is God visiting the iniquities of his father and grandfather on me.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I'm creating a website where the basic concept of it is to have people copy and paste a Christian message around the net, the internet is the most powerful communication system in the world so I feel I should utilize it for Christ. <br />
<br />
Here's my problem, currently it's a simple copy and paste message which links back to my website, which is cool and all but it doesn't really serve the purpose I want it to. <br />
<br />
The message is:<br />
<br />
<font face="arial"><b>Jesus loves you and has commanded that we spread our knowledge of him. <br />
<br />
 If you love Jesus, help fulfill His request and spread this message at least 5 places online. To do more, go to www . spreadingjesus . com <br />
<br />
  &quot;Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation.&quot; -Jesus<br />
</b></font><br />
There aren't spaces in the link but this site won't let me put in links until I have 50 posts. Anyway, so the message is primarily designed to get people to spread it and increase traffic to my site... but that's all it does, spreading the message does little except show people that whoever is spreading the message is a Christian.<br />
<br />
On top of a not so inspirational message, there's really not much on the webpage itself, the only content on the site is the message and a &quot;badge&quot; (aka the thing in my signature)<br />
<br />
So what suggestions do you guys have? What should I change and what else could I add? Please keep in mind that the site is designed for people to spread Christian messages around the internet, it is not designed to educate people about Christ, just to remind people of Him.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>What if you were standing before the Lord and the Lord showed you all the things you have done and how they impacted everyone.<br />
 <br />
What if you were standing before the Lord and He showed you where you were suppose to be spiritually.<br />
 <br />
Our Father is All We Really Have.  And We Know Our Father Has Great Things For Us and Has Put Great Things In Us.<br />
 <br />
Can We learn To change our mindsets so that we are concerned with the spiritually things of the Lord?<br />
 <br />
Who cares what the young woman wears to church?  She made it to church.  A place that is suppose to hold her when the world has harmed her.<br />
 <br />
Who cares if the young man pulled up in his car playing rap music.. He made it to church.. He came seeking God and most importantly God's children.<br />
 <br />
If we can change our mindsets...  What shall we tell God if asked.. If God says why did you do this person (my sheep) like that..  And then you say Lord the short shorts they worn to church.. There are no clothes in Heaven..<br />
Can we change our mindsets to focused on the spiritual things?  Our spiritual growth and others as well..<br />
 <br />
A Church can sin together.  Let it not be us because we don't want have to explain it later.<br />
 <br />
Stay Blessed!<br />
 <br />
All The Glory Belongs To God!</div>

We don't know our neighbors like we used to nor care about people like we used too.. <br />

We have become to complacent with our day to day lives...<br />

This time around we will learn to Love and be compassionate and how because to some degree we will all struggle together...<br />

The neighbor we didn't know we will because we may need them and they may need us..<br />
 <br />
The person walking down the street with bags and bags of groceries we may pickup because we won't allow fear to tell us no.<br />
 <br />
We will learn to be compassionate and love again..<br />

We will learn to be concerned about our brothers and sisters..<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Hi all<br />
<br />
Today i was walking to the hardware shop, having a general chat with Jesus. As i walked along, i look at a lawn in the front of this house down the road, from across the road it looked well cared for. Flat and green from side to side, not a thing out of place. I said to the Lord, I wished my lawn could grow like that. The Lord said, <b>&quot;walk over and take a closer look, things are not what they seem&quot;</b> So I crossed the road and walked over. Looking at it at close range I saw it was full of weeds, cut well but full of weeds. I said to the Lord from back there it looked fine. The Lord said <b>&quot; this is how it is with men of knowledge too, they look good and sound great, but also have weeds, never assume anything, allways be on guard&quot; </b><br />
<br />
Just a simple walk became a lesson, I love Him so much</div>

However, it seems quite difficult to openly discuss issues where opinions differ widely without folks taking offense. I am guilty of it as well sometimes.  How can we agree to not take offense, yet still discuss the issues at hand.  I think we are all here with the hope of growing in our faith.  I know I am.  How then can we openly and honestly discuss the things which are challenging?</div>

 <br />
Well, it's not really new, but considering the direction the church has taken since the middle of the last century, it is seen as new.<br />
 <br />
I wondered if anyone was familiar and what you thought of his ideas?</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Talking to Jesus about the things we talked about last night, was great, but then the Lord said He wanted me to write down these words. I have to say I am sorry for my spelling and grammer. <br />
<br />
<br />
Jesus said to me <b>&quot;Speak these things, remind the lost of the promis of God. Your bodies are not your own, but the resting place of the Holy Spirit. Clean your your house, put it in order. Judge not, for the judgment you make against another, I will judge you. Your resting place is not in order, yet you judge another. You seek your own understandings and turn away from mine. Why did you wash away sin, with my blood only to heap more sins upon your backs, when you turn to me again, you would have me be crucified again to cover over your sins. Is it not enough that I gave my life for you, wicked people. How much harder is it to come back to the place you once had, the pain of rebirth and growth. The Holy places have been open to you by the way of my blood, with confidence enter therein and refurnish your house with fine silver and gold, clean out the old and become new again, in the Spirits teachings. Wash away with pure water the sins of the world, stand as one in me, with a clear heart and filled in Spirit and truth.</b><br />
<br />
<br />
<b>I seek for those that seek me, if you have not heard from me, then you are not looking and if you feel you are, then you are not looking in the right place. Open to me a door way, into your hearts, let me come to you and dine with you. Do not close the door of life on yourselves, do not judge my bearer of good news. You have one preist that was set aside from all, a great preist to rule over the house of God. Give to him that which belongs to Him and discard the rest. </b><br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Do not seperate my church, do not devide the brothers and sisters, a house devided will not stand. It was not about what you know, but all about what i know. Do not forget who you are, do not forget who I am. It would be healthy to remember that by grace you are saved, sin no more and trun to me again, lest you fall and fail on that day.</b><br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Why work hard in your field, that pays a limited amount, rather work in my field and be blessed with never ending wages. No prophecy came from the human will of man, rather it came from God's will by men who gave ear to His voice throught the Holy Spirit. Yet men of knowledge sit in judgment and judge others on the words they speak, they argue that they are desirning what is from God and what is from man, as if they know. Wake up, you have not given birth to the Spirit of truth, you argue as children do amoungst yourselves, fighting over who is right and who is wrong. Yet i say not one is right, you take the Holy Place and pull it down to your level, wake up. Do not bring the Holy Place down to yourselves, rise up to meet it.</b><br />
<br />
<br />
<b>I say to you one final time, unless you are born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter the Kingdom of God. The flesh is flesh and the Spirit is Spirit, the water is for the flesh part of you. The Spirit is there to educate your spirit in you given by God. God is Spirit, and only in Spirit and truth can you worship Him, the Father is seeking such people to worship him. Why has he not found you? Why have you not found Him? What must you change in order to see and hear in Spirit? Truth, not according to the will of men, but His Truth according to His Will.</b><br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Is it not writen &quot;<font color="#000000"><font face="Georgia, serif"><font size="2"><i>And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you. &quot;</i></font></font></font><font color="#000000"><font face="Georgia, serif"><font size="2"> and again &quot;</font></font></font><font color="#000000"><font face="Georgia, serif"><font size="2"><i>But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. &quot; </i></font></font></font><font color="#000000"><font face="Georgia, serif"><font size="2">Oh why then do you resist the Helper ? </font></font></font></b><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><font color="#000000"><font face="Georgia, serif"><font size="2">What do you think, in all the ages i sent people to you, yet we say now men of God, Holy men, yet back then they were killed and chased away, stoned. Today, i send you again people who hear my words, who have the heart and Spirit of truth according to Gods Will, yet you chase them away, and treat them in a bad way, the least you do unto them you have done to me. Have you not concidered the sin factor in your lives, what is the cause of sin in your lives? A lack of desire, you lack desire of me for me as did the Pharisees</font></font></font><font color="#000000"><font face="Georgia, serif"><font size="2"> and Sadducees</font></font></font><font color="#000000"><font face="Georgia, serif"><font size="2">, have you no fear of the wrath to come. How do you expect to get way with your sins. You can claim ignorance in knowledge, but you cannot claim a lacking in desire. You must have LOVE, in love, with love by love in all things. </font></font></font></b><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><font color="#000000"><font face="Georgia, serif"><font size="2">Why eat stale food, did I not say give us today our daily bread, yet in truth this fresh food is left on my table uneaten. Why would you take only milk instead of solid food, you are still infants fighting and arguing over scraps, by now you should all be teaches but you yourselves need teaches to show you again the first things of Spiritual life. The mark of the beast is upon you, on the hand, the things you do and on the head, what you think and how you see life. The prince of deception has won you over and taken you away from me, even with all warnings given beforehand, still in ignorance you have been carried away with lies and false teachings. Stop and think, is not my house devived, has not my body been broken enough. Only the prince of deception could do this. My body is my people, those that give ear to my words, the prince of deception has brought in deception after decption and scattered my body. This is not a new thing according to your time, this has taken place over many many years and in ignorance you just grow with it.</font></font></font></b><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><font color="#000000"><font face="Georgia, serif"><font size="2">My church is base on Spiritual things of God, I am the leader, the Holy Spirit is the teacher, you are brothers and sisters all equal. Did I not say, call no man Father on earth? Did i not say call no man rabbi? Did I not say call no man teacher? Yet men teach against my Words, and say its alright to do such things. But worse than that, many just except what they teach and do not question the lies and false teachings and to these false teachers they adore them, to dress them in fine robes and worship them as great and powerful in me. Yet the little ones that hear me and do as I say, the ones keeping my commands, the ones that love me , you shut out. Therefore as you have judged, so shall you be judged. Workers of lawlessness, be cautioned, your lamps are running low on oil. </font></font></font></b><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><font color="#000000"><font face="Georgia, serif"><font size="2">Buy gold from me, refinded in fire, clean yourselves, make clean your robes, that you are not coming under the wrath that is coming to the world. &quot;</font></font></font></b><br />
<br />
<br />
<font color="#000000"><font face="Georgia, serif"><font size="2">Yes it was a lot and i had my work cut out for me, but i got it writen down for Him. I was left speechless after hearing this, I guess words were not needed. I have read some of this in the bible not sure were though. Other stuff is news to me and worth looking up i guess, but i will do it in Him. Anyhow God Bless and i hope someone gets something from this, I know I did.</font></font></font></div>
