💥 Join me today on the podcast (link below) as I exhort: Who do you think is grieving the Holy Spirit? IT'S NOT THE ATHEIST! It is God's Spirit-filled wayward children! That's who! In these last days, the LORD is having to send prophet after prophet, messenger after messenger to give correction to His children, whom He loves, because some have gone rogue and are rejecting rebuke - righteous rebuke NONETHELESS! The Lord doesn't want to have to judge them, but He will!! These wayward ones are out here, still attached to this "world," doing their own thing! And thus, are grieving the Holy Spirit, when in Ephesians 4:30, we are commanded NOT to do so!

How do children of God actually grieve the Holy Spirit? Answer: By living a wayward, disobedient, obstinate, rebellious, reckless, decadent, debased, debauched, hypocritical, shameful, lustful, lascivious, licentious, lying life - all in the Name of the One they profess to be their Lord! ...And I don't have enough time on the podcast today to even talk about those in ministry that the Lord Jesus ACTUALLY called to speak and teach His Word to His people, pointing them to righteous and holy living, as they await the coming of the Lord. But they got caught up with celebrity, fame, the rising of their name, lust, and filthy lucre! They have lost their way and for some, their minds! They are apostate and have now become stumbling blocks to the Body of Christ. And many are leaving Jesus and His sound doctrine and are being "carried about by every wind of [shifting] doctrine" (study Ephesians, chapter 4)! These are they that heap upon themselves teachers who teach a "wide gate & broad way" theology (i.e., "once saved/always saved) that are leading and sending people to eternal destruction and loss!!

The Lord is obviously concerned about our eternal fate, so much so, that He's telling us to always pray that we be found worthy of Him when we stand before the Son of Man (study Luke 21:36), so we can hear, "Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord" (Matt. 25:23), AND not hear, "I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity" (Matt 7:23).

Amen! 🎯 REPENT and BELIEVE and TURN back to God!

💥 Join me today on the podcast (link below) as I exhort: Christ Is Coming At An Hour No One EXPECTS!! Will You Be Left Behind 😱 WHEN The Bridegroom Returns??! Will you be ready? Have you made yourselves ready is the better question? A great separation is about to take place and before we know it, the Lord Jesus will be separating the wheat from the tares (the righteous from the unrighteous, the clean from the unclean)! The unclean will go to everlasting DESTRUCTION!! Therefore, Matthew 13:18-23 will be our text for the day! As we await the return of our Lord and Savior, or we go by the way of the grave, we are commanded to "prepare your minds for action, be completely sober [in spirit—steadfast, self-disciplined, spiritually and morally alert]." (study 1 Peter 1:13-21).

As you may recall, I'd touched on today's topic way back in March of this year. So this is like a part two, if you will, of exactly what we talked about then, because it bears repeating: Christ Jesus, the King of Glory, is on His way back and we must be prepared to meet our Bridegroom!! He has said, "Blessed (happy, prosperous, to be admired) are those who wash their robes [in the blood of Christ by believing and trusting in Him—the righteous who do His commandments], so that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter by the gates into the city" (Revelation 22:14). Amen!!

Beloved, I'm going to come right out and just said it! Our nation, if not the world, is full of compromising "believers" who must repent of their wicked disobedient ways! They lie, they cheat, they fornicate, commit adultery, even denying the Master who bought them! They are full of greed and they live like the unredeemed! They have poisoned the springs of water. They have muddied the waters! ... And all this is taking place while claiming that Jesus is their Lord and Savior!

💥 Let me warn you...many are not going to make it! These are not my words, but Christ's. He said the way is straight and narrow and only a few will find it! (Study Matthew 7:13-14). BE READY AND STAY PREPARED, FOR CHRIST IS COMING AT AN HOUR NO ONE EXPECTS!

Amen! 🎯 REPENT and BELIEVE and TURN back to God!

💥 Join me today on the podcast (link below) as I exhort from Romans, chapter 6: YOU ARE DEAD TO SIN!! Your relationship with sin has been BROKEN by Christ's atoning sacrificial death! The devil has been lying since the Garden of Eden: YOU CAN DISOBEY GOD, 😈 AND STILL LIVE! Be not deceived! We cannot live a life of defiant resistance to God, disobeying His commands, maligning His grace, and in audacious fashion, believe that we will inherit God's Kingdom! Paul, the apostle, asked the question of the ages: "Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? 2 Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it" (Romans 6:1-2)? Let us never forget Romans 6:23!!!

Scripture is unanimous: born-again sons and daughters of the Most High God, have a moral obligation to conduct and live our lives as Christ lived when He walked this Earth: in OBEDIENCE to the Father, as "the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon Him" (study Luke 3:22).

Beloved, let us be uber, super, clear that as children of God, washed and forgiven by the shed blood of Jesus, who died for our sins on the cross and rose the third day, sealed by His Holy Spirit, we walk in the "newness of life" (see Romans 6:4)! We live changed lives - now that we are in Christ Jesus! No longer do we practice sin as a lifestyle! We put away all worldliness, lust, and evil desires! We long to please our heavenly Father! Christ has promised that the man who endures (bearing up under test, trial, tribulation, and persecution) until the end, shall be saved (study Matthew 24:13), He will give eternal life!! Scripture says, "Therefore if you have been raised with Christ [to a new life, sharing in His resurrection from the dead], keep seeking the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your mind and keep focused habitually on the things above [the heavenly things], not on things that are on the earth [which have only temporal value]. 3 For you died [to this world], and your [new, real] life is hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is our life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory" (Colossians 3).

Therefore, "We have an obligation, but not to our flesh [our human nature, our worldliness, our sinful capacity], to live according to the [impulses of the] flesh [our nature without the Holy Spirit]— 13 for if you are living according to the [impulses of the] flesh, you are going to die. But if [you are living] by the [power of the Holy] Spirit you are habitually putting to death the sinful deeds of the body, you will [really] live forever. 14 For all who are allowing themselves to be led by the Spirit of God are sons of God" (Romans 8). BE SET FREE! SIN IS NO LONGER YOUR MASTER! WE FOLLOW, LISTEN, AND OBEY JESUS CHRIST! Hallelujah!! Amen! 🎯 REPENT and BELIEVE and TURN back to God!

💥 Join me today on the podcast (link below) as I exhort: Jude understood EXACTLY what was going on in his day as he was warning the brethren about the dangers of false teachers; and he is giving us the EXACT same warning today, especially in this last dark troubling hour!

"I say this because some ungodly people have wormed their way into your churches, saying that God’s marvelous grace allows us to live immoral lives. The condemnation of such people was recorded long ago, for they have denied our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ" (Jude 1:4).

My brothers and sisters, like we were discussing in the previous episode, do not let anybody talk you out of your salvation with the high-sounding nonsense about how you can live HOWEVER you want (through that damnable "once saved/ always saved" madness) and still get to go to Heaven ANYWAY! And these are they who claim they love God! Be not mistaken, as we will see from the Word of God, these false teachers do not have God's Holy Spirit, they do not know God, and many are apostate! How can they love God and yet teach false doctrine that have many shipwrecking in their faith behind their destructive heresies and clever lies, as they chase after sordid gain?!

From the Scriptures, we come to know and recognize these fakes, impostors, and antichrists who are filled with lying spirits, who twist and distort doctrine AND the grace of our God into a lie; viewing grace as an opportunity to do whatever they want! Because beloved, we got to know what we're doing when we are sitting up under anyone teaching us God's holy Word. We must test every spirit to see if they are from God, whether they have the Spirit of Truth or the spirit of deception!! Because not all have been sent by Jesus Christ. They're coming with their OWN traditions, their OWN commandments of men, and doctrines of devils! These ungodly ones are filled to the brim with seducing spirits!! They are worldly, sensual, deceitful, and full of sin! WE ARE TO COME AWAY FROM THEM, LEST WE SUFFER THEIR SAME FATE: OUTER BLACKEST DARKNESS!!

💥 Join me today on the podcast (link below) as I exhort: "Loving God means to obey His word, and His word is not hard to obey," so say 1 John 5:3! The problem is, those who claim to be born-again, are teaching that obeying God's Word is impossible to do, since we sin on a daily basis 🤦🏾‍♀️! Beloved, do not believe this lie! Those who sin on a daily basis, are those who chooses to sin on a daily basis!! They're not being obedient children and because of their guilt, they come against righteous and holy living teaching! Unfortunately, I see this scenario being played out more times than I care to witness!

The testimony of Scripture is unanimous, "The face of the LORD is against those who practice evil" (1 Peter 3:12). The same apostle tells us in back up in verse 11 about the one who wants to enjoy life and see good days, "He must turn away from wickedness and do what is right." Amen! So just from these few Scriptures alone, we see that if we expect to inherit eternal life and the Kingdom, we can't do it by living wayward, evil, disobedient lives in the sight of holy God! Don't let anyone deceive you with empty words about once you're saved, you're always saved! This damnable doctrine of devils, teaches that you can, in fact, disobey God, live however you want, and still enter His Kingdom ANYWAY! GOD FORBID!!

💥 "For certain people have crept in unnoticed [just as if they were sneaking in by a side door]. They are ungodly persons whose condemnation was predicted long ago, for they distort the grace of our God into decadence and immoral freedom [viewing it as an opportunity to do whatever they want], and deny and disown our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ" (Jude 1:4).

Make sure you listen to the end of this podcast beloved! We cannot be deceived by ungodly persons who distort the truth, who live in sin, and uses God's grace as a "cover up" to do it! We are called to be holy in all our conduct; living as obedient children! We are to be set apart from the world by our godly character and moral courage. We are filled with the Spirit of Christ and are commanded, "you shall be holy (set apart), for I am Holy!" And if we address as Father the One who impartially judges according to each one's work, we do conduct ourselves like we have some spiritual maturing sense (study 1 Peter 1:13-19) and not live a life that is characterized by sin!! Don't let anyone trick and fool and talk you out of your salvation! Amen! 🎯 REPENT and BELIEVE and TURN back to God!

💥 Join me today on the podcast (link below) as I exhort: From the archives! Idolatry is the ultimate expression of unfaithfulness to God and for that reason, is the occasion for severe divine punishment! We cannot turn over our souls to mere mortals who preach "another gospel." Our salvation is life saving! It was bought at a steep price - the precious, sinless shed blood of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

Beloved, we shouldn't carelessly and ignorantly turn over the truth of our salvation to those who distort the truth! These are they who have come away from the true teachings of Jesus Christ, who chase after filthy lucre, who are clouds without rain, who come with articulation in speech, they come with flattery and smooth sounding words, they come with hyperbole, they come with charisma and grandiose tickling ear sermons! These are they that we have been warned about from our Lord and His apostles. Not to mention, the prophets of old, who warned Israel and Judah time and time again that those who chase and run after idols and abandon their God, will face severe judgment!

We must be wise in this last hour! We must redeem the time. We must make the most of every opportunity to do good, serve others, and honor our God in all that we do! We rest in Jesus. We trust in Jesus. We rely on Jesus! We are to persevere in our fidelity to Jesus and in Him alone! We are to worship our Heavenly Father and Him alone! No one can promise and give us eternal life, but the One who is Eternal Life: Jesus, the Christ! THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD! Amen! 🎯 REPENT and BELIEVE and TURN back to God

💥 Join me today on the podcast (link below) as I exhort: the Father nor the Son nor the Holy Spirit wants us to live a life below God's holy standards for His children! He does not want any of us to lose our right standing that we have in Christ by willfully and deliberately going back to the "world" of which we have been salvaged from! Let me just say this outright, if we continue to claim that Christ Jesus is our Lord and Savior, and yet, we are still living wickedly, although we are born-again, ..."we too shall all likewise perish."

Therefore, we're going straight to the Bible for this one today, because none of us can afford to be "thrown into the Lake of Fire" for all eternity 😭! We will be looking at how our Father, who art in Heaven, wants us to live, because how some of His children are living, it is sketchy 😶‍🌫️! Sadly, some of us are teetering and tottering and blurring the lines where the "world" ends, and the Kingdom of God begins! This no longer must be the case!

One of the biggest hindrances among the Body of Christ, are false teachers who teach false doctrine! Namely that damnable demonic "once saved always saved!!" The Holy Spirit cannot express it enough, we cannot walk in disobedience to the teachings and commandments of the Lord Jesus Christ, obstinately disregarding God's holy standards and expects, through pride and arrogance, we will inherit the Kingdom of God ANYWAY!! Therefore, it is very much needed that we turn to the Word of God for instruction on holy and righteous living now that we are in the Body of Christ! So whatcha doing 👀?? Amen! 🎯 REPENT and BELIEVE and TURN back to God!

💥 Join me today on the podcast (link below) as I exhort: What's Wrong with Living According to the Flesh 🤷🏾‍♀️?? ...pause... I'm going to answer that in a few minutes! 'Cuz if you got to ask... You haven't been reading your Bible!!

Let me just say straight out the gate, make sure you tune in and listen to the whole podcast today. Because many are living in deception and self-delusion that HOLINESS is optional for the follower of Jesus Christ! Due to false doctrines of devils, many in the body of Christ thinks that they can live a life of sin and still inherit the Kingdom of God, while pulling on grace as authorization and license for them to stay in willful sin!! God forbid!!!

Listen, do not be deceived, we are marked by our OBEDIENCE! True faith in Christ Jesus results in a lifestyle discernible by obedience to Him and His Word. To say that we trust in Jesus, but then not obey Him and His commands... is to fool only ourselves! GOD WON'T BE MOCKED! God's Word is very clear on how we are to live as born-again, obedient children of God: HOLY!! We are commanded: "be holy yourselves in all your conduct [be set apart from the world by your godly character and moral courage]" (study 1 Peter 1:14-16).

👉🏾 So let's get to the question on the floor today: What Is Wrong with Living According to the Flesh?

You wanna know the answer to that question, What Is Wrong with Living According to the Flesh? You keep living according to that rotten, stinking flesh, you gonna perish!!

🔥 Romans 8:13, "for if you are living according to the [impulses of the] flesh, you are going to die. But if [you are living] by the [power of the Holy] Spirit you are habitually putting to death the sinful deeds of the body, you will [really] live forever." 👉🏾THERE'S YOUR ANSWER! Amen! 🎯 REPENT and BELIEVE and TURN back to God!

Thus saith the Lord:

Humanity will perish because they refuse My Word! They will surely perish! The people of the world hate righteousness that comes from Me! They are self-righteous and have no merit in what they do. Oh, I am watching. I am watching it all! They have no one. For they have rejected and turned a blind eye to My holiness! They are sinful, lustful, rebellious and will surely die in their sins daughter! That is why I send out My messengers, My Kingdom messengers to cry aloud to the people that they repent or they will all perish! Don't be like the disobedient ones. Those without discipline! For the Day is coming when I will arise from My Throne and enter humanity once again to judge the wrongdoers. All who do evil, will be judged and they will go away into everlasting destruction and darkness. I will keep My Word on this matter daughter. Go and cry aloud, for the people, the nations are asleep and have fallen into the hands of my enemy - Satan! Warn the people that they must repent, stop doing evil and return back to Me. For I the Lord have spoken! My Word will come to pass. I am He, the One the people rejected. When I return, all the nations will know that I am He - Jesus! The One who died for humanity. But humanity has rejected and turned to another: self and Heaven's enemy - the devil, that old ancient serpent! Terrifying times are coming soon and only the faithful will endure. But it won't last too long because the Father is ready to send Me forth! I will judge! I will judge this obstinate generation! They do not see it coming, but My wrath will surely come my daughter. Be prepared, for only a remnant will be left. Those in the world are evil and corrupt! I the Lord have spoken! It is going to be just as I said when I return. Just like in the days of Noah and Lot! Evil and sexual perversion will abound. Can't you see it daughter? Can't you see that evilness and sexual perversion abound? I caused it to be so, so that when I judge, I will be justified and exonerated in doing so. No one can judge but the Son and My Father has given Me this task: judge the inhabited world in righteousness, for this obstinate generation has rejected God and crucified the Son of Man! But the Son of Man will return at an hour that no one expects! Just like it was in the days of Noah, Lot, and Sodom and Gomorrah! They were in sin and wickedness and no one saw the judgment until it was too late! Be sick of wickedness, be sick of debauchery, debasement and treachery! The rulers of this wicked world all want power! But they do not know what true power is: true power is knowing and recognizing that you need a Savior and turn from your sin! That's true power My daughter! That's resurrection power that can only come from Me daughter! They want earthly power and dominance! But they will all perish when I come again daughter, they will all perish. I've given them time, but they have all wasted that time! They're trying to outfox Me with their technology, but it is of no use. I allow them this technology so that I can judge them according to their folly! They have no true wisdom! It is foolishness what they do in the dark, But just as that darkness is deep, I, Jesus, still sees it all - even in the darkest of darkness, I see it all and will judge it all. For I, Lord Jesus, have spoken and it will surely come to pass! Thus it is written by My own hand: I will judge the whole world when I, Jesus, shall come again! Nothing escapes from Me! I see everything and I will judge everyone! Their evil will not go unpunished! It will certainly not go unpunished. Tell them all I have said. For it shall surely come to pass! Thus saith the Lord God of Heaven who will judge this wicked world in righteousness!

Amen! Glory be to God for Your Word. May it be unto me as according to thy word Lord!

💥 Join me today on the podcast (link below) as I exhort from Colossians 3: "...you have been raised with Christ [to a new life, sharing in His resurrection from the dead], keep seeking the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your mind and keep focused habitually on the things above [the heavenly things], not on things that are on the earth [which have only temporal value]. 3 For you died [to this world], and your [new, real] life is hidden with Christ in God." Amen!

Right there! That's how, beloved, we are to live, now that we are born-again! We walk in the newness of life! Like Paul says, we have been raised with Christ to a new life. Therefore, we set our minds and keep focused daily on the things above and not on the things in the world ("the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life," 1 John 2:15) that are trying to pull us back into darkness and back in Satan's camp! Christ Jesus died for our sins and has forgiven us! We are no longer condemned and facing God's wrath! He tells us what to do next in John 8:11, "GO, and SIN NO MORE."

... And whatever you do, PLEASE stay away from "the cunning and trickery of [unscrupulous] men, by the deceitful scheming of people ready to do anything [for personal profit" (study Ephesians 4:14). These would be your apostate wolves in sheep's clothing, who teach false doctrine and are filled with seducing spirits to lure you away from the wholesome sound teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ with their clever lies, destructive heresies and doctrines of demons! Study and meditate on God's Word for yourself, so that you are not led astray and deceived by the traditions and commandments of men who make the Word of God of none effect!

Listen, the way is straight and narrow that leads to eternal life! Don't let anyone deceive you! The Bible tells us how to live post-salvation: 1 Peter 1:14, "...[Live] as obedient children [of God]." And, "If we [claim to] live by the [Holy] Spirit, we must also walk by the Spirit [with personal integrity, godly character, and moral courage—our conduct empowered by the Holy Spirit]" (Galatians 5:25). Amen! 🎯 REPENT and BELIEVE and TURN back to God!
