Thanks
God bless.
Please do not take this the wrong way because I know you love the Lord and have a true concern for the spiritual welfare of others. Everything you share is out of love and concern for others, so the motives of your heart are quite evident. If the Lord puts it on your heart to go door to door with the gospel, you're to be commended. But we should not commend those who are going from door to door spreading a false gospel. The JW's are listed as one of the largest cult groups in the world. They are spreading a false gospel and should not be commended for that regardless of their zeal.
I've spoken to some JW's in the past and from my experience, it is almost impossible to share with them the same Jesus that you and I know and love. They do not want to hear it. They refuse to hear it. I have nothing against a believer going door to door, but only if the Lord is putting it on their heart to do so, otherwise the Lord is not going to bless that, even if they are "doing it for the Lord!"
I still have them, along with the Mormons come to my door on occasion. I refuse to let them into my home. I am never rude to them. I just tell them I'm not interested and they leave. We are told in 1 John 1:10 that those who come to you bringing false doctrine, we are not to let them into our house, neither bid them God speed (Well greetings), because if we do, we are partakers with them in their evil deeds. Evil deeds are not to be commendable.
Again, please don't take this the wrong way. What what you are doing is completely different than what the JW's are doing. You may do things like going door to door because the Lord is putting it on your heart to do so, but they are going door to door for a different reason. They go door to door because each one of them has a quota that they must meet each month. The Lord is not going to bless that because it is not of Him. The Lord will never send people to your door to bring a false gospel, false doctrine, or a false Jesus!
He gave his laws to guide us, teach us and to help us remember Him as our Creator.
Lucifer, the light bearer, decided to take the place of our Creator. He took one third of the angles to believe him. He also wants to claim the earth. His wants to destroy our connection to our Creator by destructing our attention, destroying the Word of God(or changing it) and through persecution of people who follows God's comment.
God says, "Keep my commandments"
Any one who teaches different is the Antichrist. Which means, only you could follow God's Word or by not following, becoming Antichrist.
Anyone who wants to follow Christ, will find opposition and persecution.
The christians were persecuted, they couldn't worship God: so many came to America. Is it possible that the Beast rising up from the Earth is America?
Do Americans have freedom today as was 100-200 years ago?
Maybe things are changing, not for better.
However our faith is in God, who gave proof of His love towards us, humans by sending his Son, Christ to us. Have faith in God and his Son, Jesus Christ.
It's like, they know, but don't want to admit to it. I told them I was a street evangelist for Jesus Christ. I was not ever going to toss out what I know to be true. They stopped trying to convert me. I don't know how that's going to pan out for them.
I hope that as real prophesy and the end times speed up, they might think that Christianity is the Truth. Like Ezekiel, we tell them the TRUTH, so their blood is not on our hands, so-to-speak. We've done our best to communicate it. Then we pray for the Holy Spirit to do the part that we cannot do: convict them of their Need of Jesus, for sins.
I NEVER apologize for what God requires to be born again. We have to agree we sin. It's there like a big Stop Sign at the intersections of life.
How can 2 walk together unless we be agreed, as touching the truth. It was last Christmas, that I let my JW friends know we were not going to be able to agree on who or what TRUTH IS. It's Jesus Christ. He's knocking on the door of our hearts.
I have very strong convictions about television and media, but I do not force anyone to share that with me. I find the Bible to be entertaining. I LOVE to tell the stories. Like, how Gideon was hiding from God behind a wall, lol. Like, don't pick me; pick someone else. God saw something in him that Gideon didn't see. God really was patient through the fleece process. Then Gideon finally agrees, and the Lord whittles his army down to some guys who drink water with their eyes UP looking for the enemy. That's humor, drama, everything.
There's a lot of stories like that. And it's sad that more people can't communicate this to others.
The problem lies in handed down man made doctrines. Rather that reading the accounts for themselves, they choose the easy path as opposed to the path less traveled. The answers are there for the taking. Discerning the word equals dividing the truth.
Here's how. Accept Jesus as Savior from your sins in the body - which go against the Spirit until forgiven. Just walk with Him daily, do a daily verse first thing in the morning with a prayer like the Lord's prayer mixed with the 23d Psalm, or your favorite. Pray a lot, but it doesn't have to be formal, it's a conversation with Jesus. He is your best friend, so talk to Him. He is not imaginary, or an imaginary friend. Once you do this daily, the moment you feel His presence the first time, YOU WILL KNOW.
This comment is with prayer for each unsaved soul reading this to turn to the one who will always love you for who you are, BECAUSE HE MADE YOU, His Spirit is inside you and can be resurrected just like His. Jesus does it all.
Moment by moment walk with Jesus, focusing on Him, the good things in life, love, those we treasure. Focus on loving God and others, serving them in whatever you do. All jobs serve someone.
Once saved and walking with Jesus you are in the Spirit, you are living as unto the Lord, and whatever you do will prosper. Read Psalm 1. Keep it simple, moment by moment loving Jesus and others, turn anger away with a soft answer. Try to be at peace with everyone. Keep up the Shield of Faith, keep talking to Jesus, He treasures us all.
"Age Of GRACE!" We, who believe In The LORD JESUS CHRIST, His Death, Burial,
And Resurrection, for the forgiveness of all of our sins, have a "Heavenly Hope!"
( 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18) and ( 1 Corinthians 15:51-57). Also, we "are NOT
appointed to wrath!" ( 1 Thessalonians 5:9-11) and ( 1 Thessalonians 1:10).
COMFORT! Amen?
Thus, The Body Of CHRIST Will Depart from the earth, To Judgment In Heaven,
Before the Great Tribulation Of Israel and the nations begins, on the earth.
The man of Sin, son of Perdition does NOT appear, and his "mark" does
NOT exist, until After we are gone.
Please be Richly Encouraged, Enlightened, Exhorted, and Edified In:
Romans - Philemon = God's GRACE/PEACE Love Letters Directly TO us,
Today, For: Consolation, Comfort, Edification, Enjoyment, Encouragement,
And spiritual Building Up Of All The BLOOD-Washed "members { saints!" }
In The Body Of CHRIST!, HIS Church, Seated In Heaven! Amen?
Please start here, But remember: "ALL Scripture is Profitable for learning!"
( 2 Timothy 3:16-17)
To The Praise And Glory Of HIS GRACE!!
I will tell you how. Accept Jesus as Savior from your sins in the body - which go against the Spirit until forgiven. Just walk with Him daily, do a daily verse first thing in the morning with a prayer like the Lord's prayer mixed with the 23d Psalm, or your favorite.
Moment by moment walking with Jesus, focusing on Him, and the good things in life, love, and those we treasure. Focus on loving God and others and serving them in whatever you do, for all jobs serve someone.
Once you are saved and live your life in the Spirit, you are living as unto the Lord, and whatever you do will prosper. Read Psalm 1. Keep it simple, moment by moment loving Jesus and others, turn anger away with a soft answer. Try to be at peace with all people because we don't fight flesh and blood.
And when you realize you can carry the Shield of Faith daily with ease because you can do all things through Christ Who strengthens you, you will know peace in your walk. Sure, you'll make mistakes, get back up, ask forgiveness, and keep walking. He is always there, faithful, tender, merciful, and loving you as the uniquely created soul you are, part of Himself. We are His children.
You can hear Jesus voice easy, read the New Testament, John is good because John was very close to Jesus, was a minister all his life outliving the other disciples and he loved Jesus.
Every day I say the serenity prayer and the lords prayer
Every night
I say now I lay my down to sleep
I die before I wake I pray the lord my soul to take
The I pray for all that don't know they need God
I also pray for everyone on the prayer list and occasionally I add people
It is working wonders I am just saying God bless you and yours thank you
I think of it this way: if God did put a stop to these things, then they would only be temporary, since every man, woman & child is born a sinner ( Romans 3:23), & because of our sinful condition, all these things come upon us. When Adam & Eve were created, they were sinless, enjoying God's Presence continually, no sickness, in harmony with animal life around them, & would never see death. But once they disobeyed God & sinned, they lost all that perfection, & they had to hide from God (Genesis chapters 2 & 3).
And ever since, their sinful nature & death was passed upon all of us ( Romans 5:12) & the proof is the way we behave before God & our fellow-man even now. Even the one who murders another is no different to the one who has hate in his heart, according to Jesus ( Matthew 5:21,22). Or the man who cheats on his wife is the same as the one who cheats on his taxes. So all these evil traits that we might have in us are a result of indwelling sin. Yes, God can stop us from doing those evil acts, but evil will always be with us & in our hearts - and this is unacceptable before God.
What God has done, was to give us a new heart & a new spirit so that we won't do those things that come from within ( Matthew 15:19). If our heart is clean & right before God, we won't do evil & hurt one another and that was why He sent His Son to this Earth to give His Life. Jesus paid the price for our sin, which we couldn't pay, & made us acceptable before God & a clean vessel to be used by Him. So in God's Sight, stopping the murder of someone doesn't fix the problem of murder: murder will always happen, whether against someone or in our hearts. The solution to stop them is that they be changed on the inside. But most people refuse His salvation & so evil will continue with so much suffering.
I pray every day for God to protect nurses and doctors from contagion, accident, and violence. May God bless and keep you all.
The Bible tells us that the mark of the beast will be received willingly, but the vast majority who will receive it, will know nothing about it until it is too late.
In Revelation 18:23 we find the following text which is referring to modern day Babylon.
"for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived."
This word "sorceries" is strongs G5331 "pharmakeia" which is where the English word pharmacy has its roots.
The Biblical meaning in a nutshell, is the use or the administering of drugs.
There can be no doubt that the use and administering of drugs is one of the means by which the serpent uses to deceive "all nations."
And by this text we can know for sure that all the nations will be deceived into receiving the mark of the beast, but it is not the mark of the beast in and of itself.
We know this because the mark of the beast is determined by whom we worship.
The controversy which began in heaven was between Christ and Satan, and it is over the worship that rightfully belongs to Christ; it is that which Satan covets. The one thing that Satan desired from Christ when He came to the earth was His worship; and Satan was prepared to give everything for it. Matthew 4:8-9 proves this point, as does the following.
"If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, the same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation."[ Rev. 14:9, 10.] See also Revelation 13:15.
And so it is by worshipping the beast that we give homage to the god of this world, and in so doing we will receive his mark.
Our attention therefore, should be upon receiving the mark or the seal of the living God, for if we have His seal, then we shall never receive the mark of the beast.
Can we know Him without His word? If this bible were taken away, would we be able to still know Him? I predict a time that even now is, that churches will not be able to keep their doors open unless they use a certain bible! This bible will be determined by the anti Christ. More and more the name of Christ is eliminated in the course of denying the trinity. e.g. B.C. has been replaced by "common era, and before common era". These ideas procured by the docs. of theology ,who, giving us "all the same God", in the hopes of protecting man from Himself!
These works of righteousness are the works of man and not of God! Paul, could not be more direct to the point when he says we are not saved according to works! Mans works of righteousness mean absolutely nothing before God!
God said, I have chosen you! You have not chosen me! Love Him with everything that is in you! all your heart ,soul, and mind! They may try and silence Him, one thing is sure, no one can remove Him from your heart!
