I have a grievance

[david rodriguez]

Just as the Government of the United States allows for people to bring forth their
grievances, I have a grievance against what I believe is occurring to me. I, as a follower of God, feel that HE is letting me fall into every trap and snare that the adversary puts in place for me. Forgive me if God isn't but that is how I feel. In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Henoch [Chapter 98]
4 I have sworn unto you, ye sinners, as a mountain has not become a slave,
And a hill does not become the handmaid of a woman,
Even so sin has not been sent upon the earth,
But man of himself has created it,
And under a great curse shall they fall who commit it.

[Chapter 103)
5 Woe to you, ye sinners, when ye have died,
If ye die in the wealth of your sins,
And those who are like you say regarding you:
'Blessed are the sinners: they have seen all their days.

6 And how they have died in prosperity and in wealth,
And have not seen tribulation or murder in their life;
And they have died in honour,
And judgement has not been executed on them during their life."

7 Know ye, that their souls will be made to descend into Sheol
And they shall be wretched in their great tribulation.
8 And into darkness and chains and a burning flame where there is grievous
judgement shall your spirits enter;
And the great judgement shall be for all the generations of the world.
Woe to you, for ye shall have no peace.

Chapter 98
13...Woe those who rejoice in the tribulation of the righteous; for no grave
shall be dug for them.

Woe to those who write down lying and Godless words; for they write down their lies that men may hear them and act Godlessly towards their neighbour. Therefore they shall have no peace but die a sudden death.

[Chapter 96]
5 Woe to you who devour the finest of the wheat,
And drink wine in large bowls,
And tread under foot the lowly with your might.

May Jesus bless you all HalleluYAH

The word "woe", I believe, means, 'be aware, be careful, be attentive, be heedful; woe is used as a warning word, I believe. "Woe to me if I fall away from Christ." <an example among many.

Speaking about your adversaries, even Jesus the Son of God who should be worshipped by all mankind, have ended up dead on the cross by His adversaries, but Jesus has allowed it so God's plan can be revealed to mankind, for His resurrection has defeated the worst enemy of mankind which is death.

See the sin is not sent by God but man create it.
Submit yourself to God, be meek and show them compassion as Jesus has taught you.
You do this as a testimony to them, testimony is not about shouting Jesus is the Son of God.
Its more about to behave that people will glorify your God thru your life.
Matt 5:16 Thus let your light shine before men, so that they may see your good works and they should glorify your Father in the heavens

Henoch 94
9 They have committed blasphemy and unrighteousness,
And have become ready for the day of slaughter,
And the day of darkness and the day of the great judgement.

10 Thus I speak and declare unto them:
He who hath created them will overthrow them,
And for their fall there shall be no compassion,
And The Creator will rejoice at their destruction.

May Jesus bless you all HalleluYAH

If someone should desire to shout that "Jesus is God" would that be punishable by Law or be justified for death or imprisonment because it may go against what the 'people' want? Would God Almighty find it offensive for someone to 'shout that Jesus, HIS SON, is God?' I understand that 'Bible thumping' might be grounds for dis-respect, but what if you are not shouting 'it' in someone's face nor trying to 'force' HIS SON upon anyone?

Psalm 110:1 "A Psalm of David. The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool." Hebrews 10:13 "From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool."
Zephaniah 1:14-18 "
Near is the great day of the LORD,
Near and coming very quickly;
Listen, the day of the LORD!
In it the warrior cries out bitterly.

15A day of wrath is that day,
A day of trouble and distress,
A day of destruction and desolation,
A day of darkness and gloom,
A day of clouds and thick darkness,

16A day of trumpet and battle cry
Against the fortified cities
And the high corner towers.

17I will bring distress on men
So that they will walk like the blind,
Because they have sinned against the LORD;
And their blood will be poured out like dust
And their flesh like dung.

18Neither their silver nor their gold
Will be able to deliver them
On the day of the LORD’S wrath;
And all the earth will be devoured
In the fire of His jealousy,
For He will make a complete end,
Indeed a terrifying one,
Of all the inhabitants of the earth."

I thought Christians were supposed to try to help people rather than keep them in their blindness or complacency or whatever else they may be in which prevents them from receiving God's Truth which will help them escape the horrible things that are going to fall upon the earth. I keep hearing from pastors that if you love someone you don't let their house burn to the ground and watch from the sidewalk doing absolutely nothing if your neighbors are inside.

Jesus and His Father and the Holy Spirit 'saves' lives which HIS children, brothers, sisters, and mothers also do.

1Peter 5:8​

"Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:"

Protecting our neighbors, friends and family members from the devil and his ways is to show 'love' which Jesus did for us.

 

[Another Lazarus]

but what if you are not shouting 'it' in someone's face nor trying to 'force' HIS SON upon anyone?

A few years ago in my neighbourhood came 2 people yelling "Peace to this house","Peace to this house" nobody came out.

I realized they just imitating Jesus's 70 ministry
Luke 10:1 After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither He himself would come.

The different is that these 2 cannot heal the sick and not sent by Jesus to do it.

Jesus told us to obey our rulers
13:17 Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves:

In the nation where its an obligation to tolerate other's religion its not advisable that you spread Gospel like salesman to stangers. You cannot walk in the mass shouting "Jesus is our Savour, repent !" at their faces cause you might be taken by ambulance to the mental hospitals.

Its a different situation with the coming 2 Witness of God who will be personally sent by Almighty God Yah with all powers
Rev 11:3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth
11:6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.
Unless they have these powers they may end up taken by mental ambulance.

Jesus told us to spread Gospels to the edge of the world but in reality Peter gave his first sermon to gentiles upon the invitation of Kornelius.
Acts 11:11 And, behold, immediately there were three men already come unto the house where I was, sent from Caesarea unto me.
Acts 11:12 And the Spirit bade me go with them, nothing doubting. Moreover these six brethren accompanied me, and we entered into the man's house:

It happened here that the other group of these "70 ministry" people shake's people's hands on the streets and said "Jesus is the saviour would you believe it ?" somebody took it into youtube and Christianity is cursed instead of accepted. Do you understand ?

Mat 5:16 Thus let your light shine before men, so that they may see your good works and they should glorify your Father in the heaven

Our job is to spread the love of Jesus to others like we love ourselves, the rest is The Holy Spirit's works to open people's heart. We can spread Gospel by revivals, invitations, giving free Biblical items, writing in the internets etc.
all with tolerance to avoid disputes and fights from people.

May Jesus bless you all HalleluYAH

Just as the Government of the United States allows for people to bring forth their grievances, I have a grievance against what I believe is occurring to me. I, as a follower of God, feel that HE is letting me fall into every trap and snare that the adversary puts in place for me. Forgive me if God isn't but that is how I feel. In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Is it God who is "letting you fall?" All of us have a sinful nature, even those of us who are occupied by the Holy Spirit. When confronted by the sinful nature, do we look to the Holy Spirit for strength, courage, leadership, or yield? If the adversary places stumbling blocks in your path, do you continue on that pathway?

I'm led to pray for you.

just because there are traps doesn't mean you have to step into them.
and just because you find yourself in a lion's den doesn't mean that you are their lunch.
being in a feiry furnace doesn't necessarily mean that you will be burned.

5 things here:
1. be aware of your circumstances and know your own weakness, so that you aren't taken unawares.
2. know and remember that your strength is in the Lord always.
3. you aren't expected to do life alone, or on your own strength.
4. every trap has an escape hatch.
5. if in spite of all the above you do find yourself trapped, get up and leave. now. don't wait.

(it's always better to be thought a coward than to be found a fool.)

 

[1watchman]

One might always ask self if they are truly "born again" as a "child of God", or just a believer in the Creator and trying to follow Bible teachings. A self-examination of faith is better than blaming God (2 Cor. 13:5). One could yet need to have the Lord in their heart??? Just a thought!

 

[Nathie]

He doesn't give us away

1 Corinthians 10:13
There isn't any temptation that you have experienced which is unusual for humans. God, who faithfully keeps his promises, will not allow you to be tempted beyond your power to resist. But when you are tempted, he will also give you the ability to endure the temptation as your way of escape.

I know where you are coming from, I have had times where I felt like the Lord isn't having my back yet what I felt wasn't what the Lord had said or is saying in the Word
"For I am the LORD your God, who upholds your right hand, Who says to you, 'Do not fear, I will help you.'

Hi David,

Hope things improve for you. Most Christians are put through the grinder some time. At times it is due to our sin:

Lam 3:38-40 Do not evil and good come from the mouth of the Most High? What protest may a living man make, even a man about the punishment of his sin? Let us make search and put our ways to the test, turning again to the Lord;

If that were the case my advise would be to rid your life of sin, as the verse above states, "put our ways to the test", if you are breaking any of God's commands then you need to stop. Sin ultimately leads to death in our lives, emotional struggle, financial struggle, and more. We have to submit to God's plans (there is no other option), rebellion does not help us.

Isa 30:15 The Sovereign LORD, the Holy One of Israel, says to the people, "Come back and quietly trust in me. Then you will be strong and secure."

Some churches are as boring as death, they make the "quietly" the focus. God does not want us to be quiet in the sense of not speaking. He wants us strong in heart, but at peace, He wants us to prosper. He wants to put us with good people, people who will add to us, and make us stronger. We can't have it both ways, we either give our selves to God and prosper, or we complain about how he won't let us sin, and perish.

Pro 14:14-16 The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from himself ... A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool rageth, and is confident.

The other situation is like Job in the bible, we are serving God with a whole heart, and Satan wants to push our faith to the limit. In this situation no one will understand you. Every one will blame you, and think you are choosing to sin, and you are being punished for it. But in reality the pressures of life are just getting to you. In this situation like job we often although innocent push off restraint, and fall into sin.

Job 34:36-37 My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end because of his answers for wicked men. For he addeth rebellion unto his sin, he clappeth his hands among us, and multiplieth his words against God.

Job 15:3-4 Should he reason with unprofitable talk? or with speeches wherewith he can do no good? Yea, thou castest off fear, and restrainest prayer before God.

The best way to decern is ask your self, was I living pure before God, and trouble caused me to sin. Or were you getting sloppy with your living, messing with sin, and trouble came upon you.
