#WESTERNIZATION #WESTERNIZED "HISTORY merely REPEATS itself. It has ALL BEEN DONE BEFORE. NOTHING under the sun is TRULY NEW." Ecclesiastes 1:9

CONVICTION is by the SPIRIT. ACCUSATION is by the FLESH. NOT EVERYONE IS ON OUR PERSONAL LEVEL. Don't ASSUME that EVERYONE ELSE is STOOPID if they DON'T AGREE with your THEOLOGY, or you FORGET about YOURSELF. THAT'S the BLINDING of PRIDE. Don't ASSUME that SOMEONE is UNSTUDIED/INEXPERIENCED.

"Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in HUMILITY count OTHERS more SIGNIFICANT than YOURSELVES" Philippians 2:3?

This is the WEAKNESS and FOLLY of DUAL IMPUTATION THEOLOGY (FAITH ALONE-Romans 6:11, Ephesians 2:8-9). MANY PEOPLE (NEW CONVERTS) who deem themselves PERFECT in CHRIST'S IMPUTED RIGHTEOUSNESS, DECEIVE their OWN HEART into THINKING there is NO NEED to SEEK God further (REPENTANCE?) The ACHILLES HEEL of IDENTITY TEACHING. It's for the REPENTANT and MATURE.

FRUIT that CHRIST APPOINTED, ABIDES (John 15:16) and it DOES NOT DIE TWICE/AGAIN.

"These men are hidden reefs [elements of great danger to others] in your LOVE feasts when they feast together with you WITHOUT FEAR, LOOKING after [ONLY] THEMSELVES; [they are like] clouds without water, swept along by the winds; autumn TREES WITHOUT FRUIT, DOUBLY DEAD, UPROOTED and LIFELESS; wild waves of the sea, FLINGING up THEIR OWN SHAME like FOAM; wandering stars, for whom the gloom of deep darkness has been reserved forever." Jude 1:12-13

Through the Spirit's wisdom I can see and understand why the Jews have such a zeal for the Law, but I can also see why the Christians have such a zeal for the Law of Christ. My spirit is grieved because I appreciate and love both of their perspectives, how intricately they are linked. I have to support both!

<3 I'm not double-minded I just have a heart for Grace AND Truth. I know right now, God is emphasizing the message of grace, as it is most effective. I feel God's grief...it is very great. The Spirit is a living being! It can be grieved. Hmm, perhaps I feel convicted as well.

"With the Lord’s authority I say this: Live no longer as the Gentiles do, for they are hopelessly confused. Their minds are full of darkness; they wander far from the life God gives because they have closed their minds and hardened their hearts against him. They have no sense of shame. They live for lustful pleasure and eagerly practice every kind of impurity.

But that isn’t what you learned about Christ. Since you have heard about Jesus and have learned the truth that comes from him, throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception. Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. Put on your new nature, created to be like God—truly righteous and holy.

So stop telling lies. Let us tell our neighbors the truth, for we are all parts of the same body. And “don’t sin by letting anger control you.”Don’t let the sun go down while you are still angry, for anger gives a foothold to the devil.

If you are a thief, quit stealing. Instead, use your hands for good hard work, and then give generously to others in need. Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.

And do not bring sorrow to God’s Holy Spirit by the way you live. Remember, he has identified you as his own, guaranteeing that you will be saved on the day of redemption.

Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of evil behavior. Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you." Ephesians 4:17-32

 

[Victor E.]

When I was a spiritual infant (adult) I replaced the word "God" with "love" every time I read the Scriptures. It opened my eyes to see so many things! Even things that made no sense!

"Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love." 1 John 4:8

You need to have uncommon sense to understand the deepest and most profound things of God! Even the one's that we don't necessarily want to accept.

 

[Victor E.]

Born-again in Spirit. How does a Father interact with a newborn baby? In love. As the child grows older and decides to do things that it knows make its Father sad, the Father has to chastise the child in order to protect it and keep it safe from harm. The Father tells the child not to play in the street so it doesn't get hit by a car, but if it chooses to play in the street, it has to be punished so it doesn't do it again. That's discipline that keeps us in the Father's love. Sometimes we don't understand why it's painful, but perhaps God is nudging us into a new direction. A direction that leads to life and peace.

"He who withholds his rod hates his son,
But he who loves him disciplines him diligently." Proverbs 13:24

"As the Father has loved Me, so have I loved you. Remain in My love. If you keep My commandments, you will remain in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and remain in His love. I have told you these things so that My joy may be in you and your joy may be complete.

This is My commandment, that you love one another as I loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.

You are My friends if you do what I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not understand what his master is doing. But I have called you friends, because everything I have learned from My Father I have made known to you. You did not choose Me, but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will remain—so that whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you. This is My command to you: Love one another." John 15:9-17

 

[Victor E.]

The reason there is so much adultery, divorce, and fornication in the Churches is because many of the Church Leaders are still enslaved to carnality under 'grace' and are not being discipled or accountable for their sinful/disgraceful lifestyle. The Bible clearly instructs us not to be unequally yoked (in Spirit). If you want a successful relationship, find someone who has actually been sanctified in Spirit and has willingly subjected themselves to Christ's (The Word's) authority. Positional Holiness (imputed) comes by BELIEVING in Christ, Progressive Holiness (sanctification/renewing of the mind) comes by OBEDIENCE to the Faith that is in Christ.

Here it is not talking about who makes Heaven or Hell, it's talking about behavioral conduct that validates a genuine and loyal faith in God. Many Church leader's (that should be exemplifying godly character, and setting the example) are still secular, earthly, and conforming to patterns of the world. The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked. (Jeremiah 17:9-10)

"Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said:

“I will dwell in them
And walk among them.
I will be their God,
And they shall be My people.”
Therefore

“Come out from among them
And be separate, says the Lord.
Do not touch what is unclean,
And I will receive you.”
“I will be a Father to you,
And you shall be My sons and daughters,
Says the Lord Almighty.” 2 Corinthians 6:14-18

"Don’t be misled—you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant. Those who live only to satisfy their own sinful nature will harvest decay and death from that sinful nature. But those who live to please the Spirit will harvest everlasting life from the Spirit. So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up. Therefore, whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone—especially to those in the family of faith." Galatians 6:7-10

"Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect." Romans 12:2

 

[Victor E.]

For those whose heart/mind is wholly governed by the Spirit/Word, they are gender-less in regards to privileges in the Church, because they are wholly subservient to God's Will (God's Word). Aquila/Priscilla ran a house Church in the Lord (1 Corinthians 1:16:19-20) and according to the Word, the Married Couple (One Flesh-Mark 10:8) gave instruction to the man Apollos (Acts 18:18-28). Titus 2:1-5 authorizes the women to instruct the women.

In this context, even in this case, I find no basis of objective Scriptural support, for a lone woman to instruct men in the Church of Christ (married or unmarried) while staying within God's will of provision that guards us from the spirit of error (1 John 4:1-6). Prophetesses (divinely mandated female Teachers/Oraters) do not exist, and any that are self-proclaimed, are to be tested thoroughly to the Word.

'Prophetesses' DO NOT use scare/intimidation tactics like "Opposing me is to oppose God!" That's the Jezebel spirit of manipulative control. Ironically the biblical Jezebel (and Ahab) in 1 Kings were PROPHET KILLERS. The spirits of prophets (their message) can still be influenced by their own human/carnal spirit (1 Corinthians 14:32/Ecclesiastes 3:21).

"Do not extinguish the Spirit. Do not treat prophecies with contempt, but test all things. Hold fast to what is good. Abstain from every form of evil" 1 Thessalonians 5:19-22

This is why 1 Timothy 2:11-15/1 Peter 3:1-7 exhorts us with this command, and again in 1 Corinthians 14:26-40 Paul emphasizes this as the Lord's Command, not His own personal recommendation. When Adam and Eve were still blameless and walking with God in the Garden, it was Eve who was deceived, not Adam (Genesis 2:1-7). This theme (that women are naturally weaker and spiritually more susceptible to the whimsical/impulsive/careless wiles of the devil- 2 Timothy 3:6, Ecclesiastes 7:28) can be found in a multitude of Scriptures, both Old Testament and New Testament. I believe carnally minded individuals can read way too far into things, to justify things that are not Scriptural or within God's will, rather to gain ADMIRATION and the SUPPORT of WOMEN for the SAKE of THEIR MINISTRY GAIN (Jude 1:8-16).

"Then he said to the woman, "I will sharpen the pain of your pregnancy, and in pain you will give birth. And you will DESIRE to CONTROL your husband, but he will RULE OVER you." Genesis 3:16

"To the angel of the church in Thyatira write:

These are the words of the Son of God, whose eyes are like a blazing fire and whose feet are like polished bronze.

I know your deeds—your love, your faith, your service, your perseverance—and your latter deeds are greater than your first.

But I have this against you: You tolerate that woman JEZEBEL, who CALLS HERSELF a PROPHETESS. By her TEACHING she MISLEADS My servants to be sexually immoral and to eat food sacrificed to idols. Even though I have given her time to REPENT of her immorality, she is UNWILLING" Revelations 2:18-21

 

[Victor E.]

'ur a false teacher, you teach things that jesus didn't teach'

is so much purer (James 3:17-18), honest, and more tolerable than

"You're a false teacher, and you don't teach sound doctrine of the Word...in 1347 the Hebrew translations were wickedly distorted to mislead Christians to go to hell, you don't even know that?.....Also Sabbath is the 4th commandment and if we don't follow it we go to Hell" (Hypothetical Example)

Some speak the Truth in Love, and some Love to speak the Truth.

“I already told you,” Jesus replied, “but you did not believe. The works I do in My Father’s name testify on My behalf. But because you are not My sheep, you refuse to believe. My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them out of My hand. My Father who has given them to Me is greater than all. No one can snatch them out of My Father’s hand. I and the Father are one.” John 10:25-30

The first example reminds me of the Emperor's New Clothes (His Own Ego) where a mere child called out the Emperor's nakedness before all the grown people who had been deceived. I love that story.

"At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who then is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”

Jesus called a little child to stand among them. “Truly I tell you,” He said, “unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever welcomes a little child like this in My name welcomes Me.

But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea." Matthew 18:1-6

"When there are many words, transgression is unavoidable,
But he who restrains his lips is wise" Proverbs 10:19/James 3:1-12

 

[Victor E.]

"A patient person puts up with things until the right time comes: but his joy will break out in the end.

Till the time comes he keeps his thoughts to himself, and many a lip will affirm how wise he is.

Wisdom's treasuries contain the maxims of knowledge, the sinner, however, holds piety in abhorrence.

If you desire wisdom, keep the commandments, and the Lord will bestow it on you.

For the fear of the Lord is wisdom and instruction, and what pleases him is faithfulness and gentleness.

Do not stand out against fear of the Lord, do not practise it with a double heart.

Do not act a part in public, keep watch over your lips.

Do not grow too high and mighty, for fear you fall and cover yourself in disgrace; for the Lord would then reveal your secrets and overthrow you before the whole community for not having practised fear of the Lord and for having a heart full of deceit." Wisdom of Sirach 1:23-30

 

[Victor E.]

"The basis of wisdom is to fear the Lord; she was CREATED with the FAITHFUL in their MOTHER'S WOMB;

she has made a home in the human race, an age -- old foundation, and to their descendants will she faithfully cling" Ecclesiasticus 1:14-14

 

[Victor E.]

"Death and life are in the power of the tongue,
And those who love it will eat its fruit." Proverbs 18:21

"When the godless curses Satan, he is cursing himself" Ecclesiasticus 21:27

"Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness [ignoring God’s law by action or neglect or by tolerating wrongdoing—being unrestrained by His commands and His will]. You know that He appeared [in visible form as a man] in order to take away sins; and in Him there is [absolutely] no sin [for He has neither the sin nature nor has He committed sin or acts worthy of blame]. No one who abides in Him [who remains united in fellowship with Him—deliberately, knowingly, and habitually] practices sin. No one who habitually sins has seen Him or known Him. Little children (believers, dear ones), do not let anyone lead you astray. The one who practices righteousness [the one who strives to live a consistently honorable life—in private as well as in public—and to conform to God’s precepts] is righteous, just as He is righteous. The one who practices sin [separating himself from God, and offending Him by acts of disobedience, indifference, or rebellion] is of the devil [and takes his inner character and moral values from him, not God]; for the devil has sinned and violated God’s law from the beginning.

The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil. No one who is born of God [deliberately, knowingly, and habitually] practices sin, because God’s seed [His principle of life, the essence of His righteous character] remains [permanently] in him [who is born again—who is reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, and set apart for His purpose]; and he [who is born again] cannot habitually [live a life characterized by] sin, because he is born of God and longs to please Him. By this the children of God and the children of the devil are clearly identified: anyone who does not practice righteousness [who does not seek God’s will in thought, action, and purpose] is not of God, nor is the one who does not [unselfishly] love his [believing] brother." 1 John 3:4-10 (AMP)

 

[Victor E.]

There are a few testimonies of people regularly going to Heaven, there are many more testimonies of people either going to Hell or watching other's go to Hell, then coming back to describe what they saw as well. Wisdom tells me to keep them balanced, study the Word and live like Jesus in thought, word and deed. I love a healthy balance of the two. It is most unwise to consider Hell nonexistent. What folly. Let us love. I have seen the end.

"Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many." Matthew 7:13

 

[Victor E.]

"I have also spoken to the prophets,
And I gave numerous visions,
And through the prophets I gave parables." Hosea 12:10

"I will open my mouth in a parable;
I will utter dark sayings of old,

Which we have heard and known,
And our fathers have told us.

We will not conceal them from their children,
But tell to the generation to come the praises of the LORD,
And His strength and His wondrous works that He has done." Psalm 78:2-4

"Then the disciples came to Him and asked, “Why do You speak to the crowds in parables?” Jesus replied to them, “To you it has been granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been granted" Matthew 13:10

 

[Victor E.]

Hell can be a state of being/mind/condition. The Root is Pride/Envy/Jealousy. Cultural context in Prophecy.

"Therefore my people are gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst.

Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it." Isaiah 5:13-14

"Therefore, hear the word of the Lord, you arrogant men
Who rule this people who are in Jerusalem!
Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death,
And with Sheol (the place of the dead) we have made an agreement,
When the overwhelming scourge passes by, it will not reach us,
For we have made lies our refuge and we have concealed ourselves in deception.” Isaiah 28:14-15

"And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock (Christ) I will build my church; and the gates (leaders) of hell shall not prevail against it." Matthew 16:18

"Then the chief priests and Pharisees convened the Sanhedrin and said, “What are we to do? This man is performing many signs. If we let Him go on like this, everyone will believe in Him, and then the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.” John 11:47-48

"Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell (do as I say, not as I DO) than yourselves." Matthew 23:15

"Then Jonah prayed unto the Lord his God out of the fish's belly,

And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the Lord, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice." Jonah 2:1-2

"Yea also, because he transgresseth by wine (politics/philosophy/diplomacy), he is a proud man, neither keepeth at home (goes to other nations), who enlargeth his desire as hell, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations (America/Babylon the Great), and heapeth unto him all people (Cultural Melting pot):

"Hell from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations.
All they shall speak and say unto thee, Art thou also become weak as we? art thou become like unto us?
Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, and the noise of thy viols: the worm is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee.
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit" Isaiah 14:9-15

Prophetic Scribes, You Are Arrows in the Quiver of the Lord

 

[Victor E.]

There are 3 layers of Heaven. Paul is trying to talk humbly about himself without sounding obvious. That guy...The 3rd heaven is Paradise. The other two are Spiritual Battlefields.

"I must go on boasting. Although there is nothing to gain, I will go on to visions and revelations from the Lord. I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of it I do not know, but God knows. And I know that this man—whether in the body or out of it I do not know, but God knows— was caught up into Paradise. The things he heard were too sacred for words, things that man is not permitted to tell." 2 Corinthians 12:1-4

 

[Victor E.]

"“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet that was cast into the sea and gathered some of every kind, which, when it was full, they drew to shore; and they sat down and gathered the good into vessels, but threw the bad away. So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come forth, separate the wicked from among the just, and cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.”

Jesus said to them, “Have you understood all these things?”

They said to Him, “Yes, Lord.”

Then He said to them, “Therefore every scribe instructed concerning the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out of his treasure things NEW and OLD.”” Matthew 13:47-52

"Now if the ministry of death, which was engraved in letters on stone, came with such glory that the Israelites could not gaze at the face of Moses because of its fleeting glory, will not the ministry of the Spirit be even more glorious? For if the MINISTRY of CONDEMNATION WAS GLORIOUS, how much MORE GLORIOUS is the MINISTRY of RIGHTEOUSNESS! Indeed, what WAS ONCE GLORIOUS has NO GLORY NOW in COMPARISON to the GLORY that SURPASSES it. For if what was FADING AWAY came WITH GLORY, how much GREATER is the GLORY of THAT WHICH ENDURES!

Therefore, since we have such a hope, we are very bold. We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face to keep the Israelites from gazing at the end of what was fading away.

But THEIR MINDS were CLOSED. For to THIS DAY the SAME VEIL remains at the READING of the OLD COVENANT. It has NOT been LIFTED, because ONLY IN CHRIST can it BE REMOVED. And even to this day when MOSES is READ, a veil COVERS THEIR HEARTS. But whenever anyone TURNS to the LORD, the VEIL is TAKEN AWAY.

Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into His image with intensifying glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit." 2 Corinthians 3:7-18 (See Exodus 34:29-35).

"Every word of God is pure;
He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him.
Do not add to His words,
Lest He rebuke you, and you be found a liar." Proverbs 30:5-6

 

[Victor E.]

"JESUS answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days? But HE SPAKE of the TEMPLE of HIS BODY. When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which JESUS had said. John 2:19-22

"KNOW YE NOT that YE are the TEMPLE of GOD, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man DEFILE the TEMPLE of GOD, him shall God destroy; for the TEMPLE of GOD is HOLY, which TEMPLE YE ARE."

LET NO MAN DECEIVE HIMSELF. If any man among you SEEMETH to BE WISE in THIS WORLD, let him BECOME A FOOL, that he MAY BE WISE." 1 Corinthians 3:16-17

"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." Ephesians 6:12

"Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that DAY SHALL NOT COME, EXCEPT there come A FALLING AWAY, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the MYSTERY OF INIQUITY doth ALREADY WORK: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness" 2 Thessalonians 2:1-12

"The THIEF cometh not, but for to STEAL, and to KILL, and to DESTROY:
I AM come that they might have LIFE, and that they might have it MORE ABUNDANTLY." John 10:10

"And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you." Exodus 3:14

"JESUS said unto them, VERILY, VERILY, I say unto YOU, BEFORE Abraham was, I AM" John 8:58

Ouija board's are fascinating. You need to be 21 to drink spirits, but 8 to invite them! Such is this world we live in.
