Christ Jesus Only

“JESUS” - OR - instead of jesus [satan]

These are the latter or last days and there are “Seven Events” that consummate the “end of this Flesh or Second Earth Age.” One of the major events or signs that Jesus’ Second Advent is very near, even knocking at the doors, is the coming of the instead of jesus, satan as the anti-christ, which precedes the Second Coming of Christ. Jesus taught us the signs of the end times in Matthew – Chapter 24, Mark - Chapter 13 & Luke - Chapters 17 & 21. There is only one way to avoid the deception of satan as the instead of jesus, the anti-christ, and that is by studying our Father’s Word so you are not a part of “the deception, the famine of the end times and bowing down to the false christ when he is cast to this earth to perpetrate the greatest deception ever to be known to mankind.”
Mark 13:3 says, “And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,” The Mount of Olives, from which our Savior ascended, is the place where Christ will again descend at His Second Coming. Zechariah 14:3 says, “Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.” Verse 4 says, “And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which [is] before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, [and there shall be] a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.” This is the valley of decision or judgment where Christ Jesus will divide the sheep from the goats. Matthew 25:32 says, “And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth [his] sheep from the goats: Verse 33 says, “And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.”

Mark 13:4 says, “Tell us, when shall these things be? and what [shall be] the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled? From the previous Verse we learned that Peter, James, John and Andrew asked Jesus privately about the events/signs of His Second Coming. Privately, as in the sense of an interpretation wherein one thinks out for oneself by pondering or meditating upon a matter. Luke 10:23 says, “And he turned him unto [his] disciples, and said privately, Blessed [are] the eyes which see the things that ye see:” Verse 24 says, “For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen [them]; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard [them].” Jesus’ teachings in Luke allows us to understand that these events/signs would happen in our time, not the time of the prophets and kings, but the latter days and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of this Age are to come.

“Disciple” is “mathetes {math-ay-tes'}” in the Greek, meaning, “a pupil or one eager to follow the teachings of another, learning by use and practice.” “Use” and “Practice” are two very important words to one desiring “to be a disciple of Christ Jesus.” Paul teaches in Hebrews 5:14 which says, “But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, [even] those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.” “Strong meat” is what a mature student of Father God’s Word requires “to be a disciple of Jesus’ private teachings.” “Use” and “Practice discloses the meaning of disciple as “one who learns”, and Paul used “Exercised” in place of “Practice.” Paul stresses our senses are exercised as an analogy to the exercise of our physical bodies. “Senses” is “aistheterion {ahee-sthay-tay'-ree-on}” in the Greek, meaning, “the faculty of the mind for perceiving, understanding, discerning, achieved by exercise, practice, and/or use.” One will “lose” if these “senses” are not used, and in this case, “lose out” on obtaining an intimate relationship with Christ Jesus that is required to be a disciple of His private teachings.

Mark 13:5 says, “And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any [man] deceive you:” This is the first sign disclosed in Jesus’ teaching to His disciples, “to be on guard against deception.” “Deceive” in the Greek is “planao {plan-ah'-o}”, meaning, “apostasy or a falling away from the truth or real thing.” Paul teaches about the “apostasy” of the end or latter days, being this generation, which would make one a follower of the instead of jesus, satan. II Thessalonians 2:1 says, “Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and [by] our gathering together unto him,” Paul is guiding our attention to a specific time, that of the Second Coming of Christ Jesus. At Christ’s First Advent He came as the Lamb of God to be offered for the sins of many, however “Christ’s Second Coming/Advent” will not be as the Lamb slain, rather to establish Himself “as King of kings and Lord of lords” [Hebrews 9:28]. Christ Jesus will have the cup of the wrath of Almighty Father God, that same cup He prayed would pass from Him just prior to His Passion of the cross [Matthew 26:39, 42 & 44]. Verse 2 says, “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.” When one studies our Father’s Word Chapter by Chapter and Verse by Verse as commanded by our Almighty God, then one will not be shaken and/or troubled concerning the Second Coming/Advent of Christ Jesus. Confusion is overshadowed by complete knowledge and understanding. Paul teaches in another of his Epistles thusly. Romans 13:11 says, “And that, knowing the time, that now [it is] high time to awake out of sleep: for now [is] our salvation nearer than when we believed.” Verse 12 says, “The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.

II Thessalonians 2:3 says, “Let no man deceive you by any means: for [that day shall not come], except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;” Paul is warning against deception the same as Christ Jesus in His private teaching to His disciples did. Paul also discloses to us who the man is causing the deception prior to the Day of the Lord as, [1] that man of sin and [2] the son of perdition. Jesus said do not be deceived by any man, especially and including that man of sin and/or the son of perdition, “satan as the instead of jesus.” Verse 4 says, “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.” Isaiah teaches us thusly concerning that man of sin and the son of perdition [satan]. Isaiah 14:12 says, “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!” “Lucifer” is another of satan’s names, and means, “morning star or son of the morning.” This vile one, satan, has always wanted to sit on the very Throne of our Father God. He will be cast to this earth as the pretend or fake christ, which is his “disguise of deception for these end times or latter days as the anti-christ or the instead of jesus.” Verse 13 says, “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:” In the First Earth Age {spiritual} satan’s name was lucifer and he committed this offense against our Father God in the Heaven or First Earth Age {former/spiritual}, and will again perpetrate this deception in this Second Earth Age {current/flesh}. Slew footed satan’s deception brought about the destruction of that First Age just as his deception as the anti-christ or the instead of jesus will consummate the end of this Second or Flesh Earth Age we now live in. Verse 14 says, “I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.” This is exactly Paul’s teaching in II Thessalonians 2:4 which says, “Who [satan]” will oppose and exalt himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God will sit in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” Ecclesiastes 1:9 says, “The thing that hath been, it [is that] which shall be; and that which is done [is] that which shall be done: and [there is] no new [thing] under the sun.” Verse 10 says, “Is there [any] thing whereof it may be said, See, this [is] new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.” Verse 11 says, “”[There is] no remembrance of former [things]; neither shall there be [any] remembrance of [things] that are to come with [those] that shall come after.”

Mark 13:6 says, “For many shall come in my name, saying, I am [Christ]; and shall deceive many.” In these end times or last days many preachers, pastors, reverends, ministers, evangelists, all the many pulpit gurus, are professing that our Father God called them to preach the Gospel. The very elect who are the disciples of the teachings of Christ Jesus realize that many are called, but few are chosen to bring forth the truth of these end times or latter days. Paul teaches that the many professing to be of Christ Jesus are the ministers of satan who transform themselves into ministers of righteousness just as satan will disguise himself as an angel of light [the anti-christ or the instead of jesus]. Take heed against this deception. Anyone who professes to be called unto the Gospel and does not study and teach our Father God’s Word precept upon precept and line upon line {Chapter by Chapter and Verse by Verse}, with stammering lips and another tongue will they speak to this people. Here a little, and from there a little more, that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken by satan and held captive by him at his will [Isaiah – Chapter 28].

Mark 13:8 says, “For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these [are] the beginnings of sorrows.” After war follows famine, and the famine for the end times is taught by the prophet Amos as Amos 8:11 says, “Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:” Amos is very exact in teaching us “what the famine for the end times is”, not for bread and water, but “for the truth of our Father God’s Word.” Many are claiming that they are proclaiming the word of truth, however one must study to show themselves approved of our Father God, rightly dividing the Word of Truth with a Chapter by Chapter and Verse by Verse study of our Father God’s Word, DAILY. Verse 12 says, “And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find [it].” People are hungry for the Truth of our Father God’s Word and we see just what Amos teaches in this Verse happening today. People of all denominations, religious backgrounds and professions are seeking, however not finding because many are called, but few are chosen, meaning the chosen few with ears to hear and eyes to see. Christ Jesus said in Matthew 13:3, “Behold, a sower went forth to sow;” Verse 4, “And when he sowed, some [seeds] fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:” Verse 5, “Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:” Verse 6, “And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.” Verse 7, “And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:” Verse 8, “But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.” Verse 9, “Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.” Verse 10, “And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?” Verse 11, “He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.” “Use, Practice and/or Exercise” are what define a disciple in Father God’s Word of Truth. Amos 8:13 says, “In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst.” No gender is intended in this Verse because all of Father God’s children, male and female should be spiritual virgins waiting for the Second Coming/Advent of our “Lord of lords, and King of kings” who is Christ Jesus. Paul teaches that in due season we shall reap “IF” we faint not [Galatians 6:9]. Therefore, let us not become weary in well doing, that is to study our Father God’s Word of Truth that will equip us to stand against the deception and disguise of satan as the anti-christ or the instead of jesus.

The opposite of war is peace and safety, and this is how satan as the anti-christ or the instead of jesus will deceive many. Paul teaches in I Thessalonians 5:1, “But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.” Paul is simply stating that he has taught about the end times or latter days over and over again, and it should have taken root so that satan’s deception will not come to pass if one has ears to hear and eyes to see. Verse 2 says, “For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.” A thief attacks when one is asleep or off guard. Therefore, one should continually be on a spiritual watch so that satan’s disguise and deception as the anti-christ or the instead of jesus will not rob you of your faith. James teaches that faith without works is dead [James – Chapter 2]. Verse 3 says, “For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.” Slew footed satan will be trying to convince the world that he is our True Christ coming to rapture or fly them away. He will come in peace and with a generous supply of prosperity for all. Paul has said, I have warned you time and time again against this deception. “As Travail Upon A Woman With Child” is the equivalent of the labor pains for satan’s deception as the anti-christ or the instead of jesus are occurring closer and closer together just like a woman in labor about to bring forth unto the birth. The earth will not escape because all who remain alive until the Second Coming of Christ Jesus will be here on the earth and not rapture or fly away before the Second Advent/Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Verse 4 says, “But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.” Paul is speaking to the true disciples of Christ Jesus being those who are skillful in the Words of Christ, desiring strong meat and not milk, by continual Use, Practice and/or Exercise therein. Knowledge concerning our Father God’s Word of Truth is the only way to escape being overtaken by the thief, satan as the instead of jesus. Christ Jesus said in John 10:8, “All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep [having strong meat, God’s Truths] did not hear them.” The vile one’s [satan] deception as the instead of jesus is an event that comes before the return or Second Coming of Christ Jesus. Slew footed satan is cast to this earth at the Sixth Trump, and Christ Jesus returns at the Seventh Trump [Revelation – Chapters 6,13,16 & 19].

I Thessalonians 5:5 says, “Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.” There is no darkness in Christ Jesus because He is the Light of the world. Therefore, as His disciples, we abide in His Light and the darkness cannot overshadow us, which is the darkness of false doctrine. David teaches in Psalms 119:11, “Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.” It is a great sin to be deceived by satan as the instead of jesus when our Lord has foretold us all things concerning this deception. When Jesus taught the following, He was speaking to those who did not take the time to study DAILY for themselves, and thusly snared by satan’s disguise as the instead of jesus. Matthew 7:21 says, “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.” Verse 22 says, “Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?” Verse 23 says, “And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.”

Mark 13:14 says, “But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains: The proper translation should be the “abomination of the desolator”, who is satan disguised as the instead of jesus or the anti-christ. “Desolation” is “a condition”, and cannot stand where it ought not, but “only a person or entity can stand” where he ought not and bring about the condition of desolation. Daniel taught about satan’s deception in Daniel – Chapter 9 as Verse 27 says, “And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make [it] desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.” When one thinks of overspreading, you would think of something with wings, therefore the desolator enters on the wings of abomination and brings about the condition of desolation. This is exactly satan’s false message of the flyaway doctrine [rapture] and our Father God hates this message. Ezekiel 13:20 says, “Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I [am] against your pillows, wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make [them] fly, and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, [even] the souls that ye hunt to make [them] fly.” Daniel also prophesied of Christ Jesus’ Two Advents; Christ was crucified during His First Advent and Christ Jesus will be misrepresented prior to His Second Advent with satan’s deception as the instead of jesus. Daniel also makes clear the time of the desolator, satan as the instead of jesus when he teaches, “even until the consummation”, which is the major event to bring about or consummate the end of this Flesh or Second Earth Age.

Mark 13:16 says, “And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up his garment.” One that is a disciple of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ should never be without their garment, that is our Father God’s Gospel Armor. It is the garment of truth, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation, prayer and the Word of our Father God [Ephesians 6:10 – 18]. Jesus said in Luke 17:34, “I tell you, in that night there shall be two [men] in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.” Verse 35 says, “Two [women] shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Verse 36 says, “Two [men] shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.” Therefore, he that is in the field let him not turn back. Paul teaches in Hebrews 10:38, “Now the just shall live by faith: but if [any man] draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. Verse 39 says, But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul. If one draws back, then one will be caught up in the deception of that man of sin, that son of perdition, satan, in his disguise as the instead of jesus.

Mark 13:17 “But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!” Jesus said in Mark 13:34, “For the Son [Jesus Christ] of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.” Christ Jesus’ house is His many-membered body, the church. If while Christ Jesus is on His far journey, His house, the church does not remain faithful to their Bridegroom/Husband, then they are like a woman who does not remain faithful to her husband in his absence. If a man has been away from his wife, not home for a year, but when he returns his wife has a nine-month-old baby, then that baby belongs to another, not to her husband. Christ Jesus is speaking spiritually concerning His spiritual house, meaning that if one is deceived by satan as the instead of jesus, that one was not faithful and is no longer Christ Jesus’ spiritual virgin [Matthew 25:1 – 13].

Christ Jesus commanded us to work and watch in His absence from His spiritual house “in those days”, being the days when satan is on this earth deceiving the world with his disguise as the instead of jesus. Christ Jesus did not say flyaway [rapture], but to work and watch. Watch for His return as “King of kings and Lord of lords.” Christ Jesus said His Second Coming would be without observation. The vile one’s [satan] disguise as the instead of jesus will be accompanied by lying signs and wonders or mind boggling miracles. “Touch not; taste not; handle not; Which all are to perish with the using; [Colossians 2:21 & 22].”

Luke 17:20 says, “The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:” Do not be deceived by satan’s mind-boggling miracles, which are lying signs and wonders. If one is caught up with satan’s deception as the instead of jesus, you will not be with observation, or watching and working as Christ Jesus commanded us. “Observation” has a two-fold implication: [1] the Kingdom of God will not consist of mind-boggling deceptive miracles and [2] the Kingdom of God requires that one work and watch. Luke 17:21 says, “Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.” The Kingdom of God is in the Spirit of prophecy, which is the indwelling Holy Spirit of our Father God. The Holy Spirit is our teacher or spiritual instructor in these end times. The Spirit of prophecy is nothing more than spiritual guidance and instruction concerning the events that consummate the end of this Flesh Age and the Second Coming of Christ Jesus. Our Father God’s Gospel Armor on and in place helps you have the Kingdom of God internally.

Let us end this Bible Study with Paul’s teaching concerning our Father God’s Gospel Armor. Ephesians 6:10 says, “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.” Our Father God said through the prophet Zechariah in Chapter 4:6, “Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.” Our Father God’s Spirit endows with strength, power and might to do His will and understand His ways [Matthew 28: 18 – 20]. Verse 11 says, “Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” “Armour of God” means to be wholly armed, where the spiritual helps needed for overcoming the temptations of the devil are in place, which is the Word of Father God and can be called upon by the Spirit of God. This is especially true in the latter end of these end times when satan will disguise himself as the instead of jesus, as Verse 12 says, “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].” Many people believe that the anti-christ or the instead of jesus is a flesh man that will be influenced by the evil spirit of satan, however this is an untruth since it will be satan himself in disguise, deceiving the world into believing his final role of this Flesh Age. Paul teaches that we will not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against spiritual wickedness cast down from the high place of the Heavens. Revelation 12:9 says, “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.” Paul further teaches concerning satan’s casting to the earth in II Corinthians 11:4 which says, “For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or [if] ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with [him].” Verse 14 says, “And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.” “Transformed” means, “to disguise oneself as another, or to assume another’s appearance”, and in this case satan will transform or disguise himself as the anti-christ or the instead of jesus. Ephesians 6:13 says, “Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.” “The evil day” is the day of satan’s deception that Christ Jesus has warned us against which is satan’s disguise as the instead of jesus. You can only stand against satan’s deception if you know what to expect and this is only accomplished by studying our Father God’s Word precept upon precept and line by line {Chapter by Chapter, Verse by Verse}. In doing so, you can call on the spiritual help of our Father God’s whole armour as Revelation 7:12 says, “Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, [be] unto our God for ever and ever. Amen Amen!!!

Mark 13:23 says, “But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things,”
Mark 13:37 says, “And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.”

LO HERE! OR, LO THERE!

NEITHER SHALL THEY SAY, LO HERE! OR, LO THERE!

It is imperative that people realize the time we are living in today and understand we are the generation who will see the Second Coming of Christ Jesus. Therefore, it is crucial that one know the events that usher in the Day of our Lord, the Seventh Trump being the time when Christ Jesus will return to the earth and set up His Millennial Kingdom. However, before the Seventh Trump, there are six events that we must endure before the great and notable Day of the Lord. One such event that is very important to understand is satan’s disguise as the instead of jesus or the anti-christ. The vile one’s disguise will precede the Second Coming of Christ Jesus which is when he shall attempt to deceive most of mankind into believing he is our True Christ, however he is the anti-christ, the instead of jesus, the first/false christ. Our Father God’s Word declares this is the way it shall be.

Luke 17:23 says, “And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after [them], nor follow [them].” Christ Jesus was demanded of the Pharisees to know when Father God’s Kingdom would come. Jesus answered in Luke 17:20 which says, “The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:” “Observation” is “parateresis {par-at-ay'-ray-sis}” in the Greek, meaning “in such a manner that it can be watched with the eyes, i.e., in a visible manner.” It is derived from “paratereo {par-at-ay-reh'-o}”, which means, “to watch assiduously (with care and persistence), or to watch insidiously (intended to entrap, beguiling but harmful).” If you study our Father’s Word to know the events that usher in the Day of the Lord, then you shall watch for Jesus’ Second Coming with care and persistence and neglect nothing requisite for that Day. On the other hand, if you do not know the events that precede the Second Coming of Christ Jesus, then you will be beguiled by those events and become entrapped by the false doctrine that is rampant amongst the religious community of today. One such false doctrine is the rapture or flyaway of the church. As previously mentioned, there are six events that precede the Second Coming of Christ Jesus, however in accordance with His teachings, there is no mention of one of those events being the rapture or flyaway of the church before His return at the Seventh Trump. Christ was asked by His disciples in Matthew 24:3 which says, “And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what [shall be] the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?” Our Lord Jesus Christ answered as follows. Verse 4 & 5 {First Event} says, “And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.” “For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.” Verse 6 & 7 {Second Event} says, “And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all [these things] must come to pass, but the end is not yet.” “For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:” Verse 7/con’t & 8 {Third Event} says, “and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.” “All these [are] the beginning of sorrows.” Verse 9 - 14 {Fourth Event} says, “Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.” “And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.” “And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.” “And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.” “But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” “And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” Although you are being given specific Scripture for this particular study, it is very important that you read this entire Chapter. Verse 23 & 24 {Fifth Event} says, “Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here [is] Christ, or there; believe [it] not.” “For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect.” Verse 32 - 34 {Sixth Event} says, “Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer [is] nigh:” “So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, [even] at the doors.” “Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.” Christ Jesus has told us the six events that will precede His Second Coming and there is no mention of the rapture or flyaway of the church. However, Christ did say that one of the events was a false christ and a false prophet coming before His return, who would have the power to perform great miracles. That false christ and false prophet is satan as the anti-christ. And, Jesus said that all six events would be fulfilled in our generation {The Generation of the Fig Tree} before the end of this Flesh or Second Earth Age and His Second Coming. This “includes” satan’s deception as the anti-christ, and is the reason Christ Jesus told us in Luke 17:23, “And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after [them], nor follow [them].” Our Lord is forewarning us that satan as the anti-christ will deceive many into believing he is our True Christ, however he is the false christ, the instead of jesus. They will say that our Christ is here on the earth, however Jesus has told us in advance not to follow after or listen to them because they are Biblically illiterate and are being deceived by satan as the first/false christ.

Luke 17:33 says, “Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.” Seeking to save your life can also be called the rapture of the church. Those who believe this false teaching are taught they will magically fly away before the tribulation of the anti-christ. However, this is contrary to what Christ Jesus teaches concerning the six events that precede His Second Coming. Jesus said in Matthew 24:29 - 31, “Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:” “And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.” “And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.” If you have the ability to comprehend what is read, then the rapture is not a viable option, since it has absolutely no credibility in light of the teachings of Christ Jesus. Our Lord said that He would not return to this earth until after the first tribulation as Matthew 24: 26 says, “Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, [he is] in the secret chambers; believe it not.” This is that great deception; the report of satan who comes first as anti-christ, who is instead of jesus, the fake, and this tribulation shall befall this generation we now live in.

Luke 17:34 says, “I tell you, in that night there shall be two [men] in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.” “That night” is “the night of Father God” and “it is satan’s deception as the anti-christ”, he who comes to this earth first as the instead of jesus. “Taken” is the Greek word “paralambano {par-al-am-ban'-o}, meaning, “to accept or acknowledge one to be such as he professes to be, to take with one in order to carry away.” Revelation 12:7 says, “And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, Verse 8 says, “And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.” Verse 9 says, “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.” Verse 15 says, “And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.” Carried away” sounds just like the rapture or flyaway false teaching; it is one of the flood of lies that satan will use to deceive the earth into believing he is our True Christ, when in fact, he is the vile, instead of jesus.

Luke 17:35 says, “Two [women] shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.” The one left is that one who is not deceived by satan’s disguise as the first/false christ to be cast to this earth. “Left” is in step with Jesus’ teaching in Luke 17:31 which says, “In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back.” When satan is cast to this earth as the first/false christ, the anti-christ, he will come in peacefully and prosperously. Daniel teaches us concerning satan’s deception as the instead of jesus in Daniel 8:23 which says, “And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.” Verse 24 says, “And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.” Verse 25 says, “And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify [himself] in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.” The deception of satan as the anti-christ will be mighty in power because he will operate using a two-fold one world system that will be both political and religious in nature [Revelation – Chapter 13]. Paul teaches us that we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against satan’s spiritual wickedness in high places [Ephesians 6:12]. The vile one, satan, will use any means necessary to deceive mankind into believing he is our True Christ here to any moment, rapture or fly away the Biblically illiterate. Economic, educational, political and religious chaos permeates this earth today, and when satan arrives to this earth as the anti-christ, he will deceive the ignorant masses into believing that he has come as the prince of peace to restore love and order to the world, economic equality for one and all. However, satan is he that is the deceiving prince of darkness as we are taught from Daniel’s prophesy. Christ Jesus has already foretold us that when we hear of wars and rumors of wars that the end of this Age is not yet. If satan comes to this earth fueling the political and religious flames of violence he will not deceive many into believing his disguise that he is our True Christ, instead of the first/false christ. Therefore, the opposite of war is peace, and this is exactly what Daniel teaches us in his prophecy for the end times concerning satan’s event as the anti-christ.

Luke 17:36 says, “Two [men] shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.” You have a choice to make, which is either to be taken or left in the field. Christ Jesus said in Luke 12:37, “Blessed [are] those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.” If you are left in the field instead of taken and carried away with satan’s flood of lies, then you shall be the one left watching, working and waiting for the return of our True Bridegroom, Jesus Christ. The vile one, satan, will deceive most of mankind with his wicked devices of peace and prosperity, however our Lord said in Matthew 16:26, “For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” The world will pass away and your righteous acts are the only things that you will carry into Father God’s Kingdom of the Eternal Age. Faith without works is dead, therefore, it is crucial to one’s eternal soul to stand on watch against satan’s temptation of peace and prosperity, masked in his one world system of political and religious unity. Remember Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego who refused to bow a knee to the image Nebuchadnezzar set up, which is an example for us living in these end times. The vile one, satan, will set up an image celebrating his beastly one world system of religion and politics, and just like Nebuchadnezzar, command that all the earth worship him by bowing a knee to him as the first/false christ. However, as Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, the one left in the field will proclaim by their continual vigil of watching, working and waiting. “Be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up [Daniel – Chapter 3 {18}.

Luke 17:37 says, “And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body [is], thither will the eagles be gathered together.” Christ’s disciples were inquiring of Him where are the ones taken, and Jesus did not respond that they would rapture or flyaway. Hear and understand what Jesus said, “Wheresoever the body [is], thither will the eagles be gathered together.” In other words, “For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together [Matthew 24:28].” Eagles are from the vulture family that feasts upon dead flesh, therefore, that is where they gather. Here, Christ Jesus is revealing to us a specific time that this event will take place and it involves the ones taken, that is, the ones taken into deception by satan as the anti-christ, who are spiritually dead. The timeframe that Jesus is directing us to is recorded in the Book of Revelation.

Revelation 11:3 says, “And I will give [power] unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred [and] threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.” Prophecy given in days is always indicative of our Father God’s children or the children of the light. Sackcloth was usually worn in mourning, and the two witnesses are mourning the desecration of the Jerusalem temple when satan will inhabit it as the anti-christ, pretending to be our True Christ, and those deceived upon the earth by his disguise will worship him as such. Jesus foretold us of this time when He said in Luke 21:6, “[As for] these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.” However, there is good news for the children of the light, those who are not deceived by satan as the first/false christ. We are also taught that after the temple is destroyed because of satan’s abomination as the instead of jesus in Revelation 21:22, “And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.”

Revelation 11:4 says, “These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.” Remember Jesus Christ revealed unto John that the "candlesticks” are the “seven churches.” Out of these seven churches, which are indicative of the churches of today world-wide, our Father God was only pleased with two, being the churches of Smyrna and Philadelphia because of the doctrine they taught. Both churches know that satan will come first to the earth as the anti-christ, an event that precedes the Second Coming of Christ Jesus. Neither church taught the false doctrine of the rapture or flyaway of the churches before the appearance of satan and his tribulation as the first/false christ. The “two olive trees” are the ‘two witnesses” {God’s anointed ones} that will be here on this earth, along with the two candlesticks {churches of Smyrna and Philadelphia, which are Father God’s very elect} to teach and keep the testimony of Christ Jesus. This is the teachings of Paul to us concerning the occurrences before the Day of the Lord or the Second Coming of Christ.

II Thessalonians 2:1 - 4 says, 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 first, 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.” Even in the midst of the son of perdition, who is satan, deceiving the earth with his abomination that he is our True Christ, the two witnesses will empty the golden oil out of themselves, which is the truth that the five wise virgins knew about satan as the first/false christ, and did not go whoring after him. This knowledge allowed them to remain faithful virgins awaiting the return of their True Bridegroom, Christ Jesus, who will not appear again on this earth until after satan’s desecration of the Jerusalem temple as the anti-christ [Zechariah – Chapter 4 & Matthew 25:1-13].

Revelation 11:7 says, “And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.” Our Father told satan in Psalms 105:15, “[Saying], Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.” This is why satan is the only entity of perdition or, the only entity at this present time judged and sentenced to death of his soul, because after his fall from Father’s grace, he has always been and will always be the son of disobedience and destruction. This is spiritual warfare between our Father God and satan and do not allow yourself to be beguiled by satan as he did Eve in Eden. Paul teaches in II Corinthians 11:2, “For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present [you as] a chaste virgin to Christ.” Paul penned, by the blessings of Father God’s Holy Spirit, most of the New Testament of the Holy Bible; therefore, giving him credentials that he was of the very elect of Father God. We should remember Paul from his revelation on the Damascus Roas, wherein our Father God said Paul was a chosen vessel unto Him, just like the two witnesses and the two candlesticks. Our Father said to Paul in Acts 9:5, “And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: [it is] hard for thee to kick against the pricks [Acts 26:14].” Therefore, Paul would not kick against the pricks in his teachings to us, rather he would denounce the false doctrine of deception of unfaithful children in these end times. Chaste virgins are those who know that satan will be cast to this earth as the anti-christ before the Day of the Lord, and that there is no rapture or flyaway of the church before satan’s deception. II Corinthians 11:3 says, “But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.” Paul is comparing the sexual fornication of Eve with satan to the spiritual fornication of those who believe in the rapture or flyaway of the church before the tribulation of satan as the anti-christ. Verse 4 says, “For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or [if] ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with [him].” Another jesus is satan’s deception as the anti-christ, the first/false christ that will be cast to the earth before the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. The gospel of satan that precedes his deception as the anti-christ is the rapture or flyaway of the church. Our Father God said concerning the teaching of the flyaway doctrine in Ezekiel 13:20, “Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I [am] against your pillows, wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make [them] fly, and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, [even] the souls that ye hunt to make [them] fly.” II Corinthians 11:13 says, “For such [are] false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.” Jesus said that in the times preceding His Second Coming in Matthew 24:5 “For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.” Look around, wake up and see all of the television evangelists, ministers, prophets/prophetess’, bishops, reverends, preachers, teachers; all of the pulpit gurus who are speaking from their own hearts concerning the events of the end times. II Corinthians 11:14 says, “And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.” Make no mistake about it; satan will come disguised as another jesus, the anti-christ or he that comes in the place of our Christ Jesus, before the Second Coming of our Lord. Verse 15 says, “Therefore [it is] no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.” One can either believe in the teachings of Christ Jesus and Paul or listen to the false teachings of the false religious leaders. Our Lord and Paul have both laid out for us the events that usher in the Day of the Lord, and both have stated that satan will be cast to this earth first as the false christ. Neither have taught anything in reference to the rapture or flyaway of the church before satan’s deception as the first/false christ.

Revelation 11:8 & 9 says, “And their dead bodies [shall lie] in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.” “And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.” The testimony of Christ Jesus is in the spirit of prophecy, and these Verses are prophecy being fulfilled as taught by David in Psalms 79:1 - 3 which says, “[[A Psalm of Asaph.]] O God, the heathen are come into thine inheritance; thy holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem on heaps.” “The dead bodies of thy servants have they given [to be] meat unto the fowls of the heaven, the flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth.” “Their blood have they shed like water round about Jerusalem; and [there was] none to bury [them].” Our Father God has revealed unto us all the events that usher in the Second Coming of Christ Jesus for those who seek Him with their whole heart.

Revelation 11:10 says, “And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.” The two witnesses will be a torment to those deceived into believing satan’s deception as the first christ cast to this earth. He is the false christ or the anti-christ, which means he who comes instead of or in the place of Christ Jesus. Our Lord said in John 16:2 & 3, “They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.” “And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.”

Revelation 11:11 says, “And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.” The rejoicing of the earth will be short lived; satan’s deception as the first/false christ is about to be exposed. Those deceived will be praying for rocks and mountains to fall on them, and even seeking death to hide their shame from our True Christ and this is the fear that overtakes them because now they realize they have been had by satan’s deception. Isaiah 14: 16 & 17 says, “They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, [and] consider thee, [saying, Is] this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;” “[That] made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; [that] opened not the house of his prisoners?” Ignorance, rebellion and stubbornness causes one to stay steeped in man’s traditions and satan’s deception taught as doctrine, and the remedy for that ignorance is studying Father God’s word Chapter by Chapter and Verse by Verse, daily, for yourself. [Keep in mind the three days and a half, after which the two witnesses are revived.]

Revelation 11:12 says, “And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.” This is the only rapture or flyaway the church will ever experience, and it occurs to the two witnesses and not the church body. Also, note that the two witnesses are on the earth the same time as satan in disguise as the first/false christ, killed because of their tormenting testimony against his deception, and their dead bodies lie in public view for a period of three days and a half. This should call to your mind what satan inspired his children to do when Christ Jesus was removed from the cross, buried, but not yet risen from His earthly tomb. Matthew 28:62 – 66 says, “Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,” “Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.” “Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the first.” “Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make [it] as sure as ye can.” “So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch.” This time satan and his followers, even the deceived christians that accept his disguise as the first/false christ, will see the two witnesses arise from the dead and ascend to Father God in the heavens. Revelation 1:7 says, “Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they [also] which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wait because of him. Even so, Amen.” Today, we had better make our watch as sure as we can so that we can stand against satan's deception as the first/false christ who will be cast to this earth before our True Vine, Christ Jesus' Second Coming.

Revelation 11:13 says, “And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.” These “seven thousand” that are slain “are the Nephilim of Genesis – Chapter 6”, who chose to impregnate the womb of woman rather than to be born through the womb of woman as commanded by our Father God, which means to be born from above [they were not], and not born again [John – Chapter 3]. These are satan’s band of fallen angels who sought to pollute the bloodline of Christ Jesus just like satan attempted to do when he impregnated the womb of Eve with his offspring Cain [Genesis – Chapter 3]. Affrighted” in the Greek is “emphobos {em'-fob-os}”, meaning, “the remnant or those not deceived by satan as the anti-christ, have inspiring reverence and love for that which is about to happen simultaneously with the resurrection of the two witnesses.”

Revelation 11:14 says, “The second woe is past; [and], behold, the third woe cometh quickly.” The first woe is satan cast to this earth as the first/false christ, which is a test for those upon the earth by which Father God measures our faithfulness and love. Also, satan’s deception will reveal those who studied our Father God’s word Chapter by Chapter and Verse by Verse as compared to those who did not, therefore, unable to heed the forewarnings of Christ Jesus concerning His Second Coming. The second woe is the death of the two witnesses, which the deceived rejoice over. And, the next Verse reveals the third woe that comes quickly, which is the Second Coming of Christ Jesus.

Revelation 11:15 says, “And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become [the kingdoms] of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.” Our Father is so very good to us. Even though no one knows the exact hour that Christ Jesus will return, our Father God has given us seasons or events that usher in Christ’s Second Visitation to this earth. At the same time the two witnesses are revived to ascend unto the God of Heaven, Christ Jesus will return for His faithful, virgin bride {wife/very elect}, those not deceived by satan’s deception as the first/false christ. Will you be ready by finishing your course because you kept your watch, or will you be one that Christ Jesus will say unto: “depart from me, ye that work iniquity, I never knew you?”

II Timothy 4:7 & 8 says, “I have fought a good fight, I have finished [my] course, I have kept the faith:” “Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.” Amen, Amen!!!

PRAISES TO FATHER GOD

Psalms 47:6 says, “Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.” Praises is a major part of most congregations today, and comes in many expressions. Rapping, musical instruments, singing, praise dancing, are all supposedly an uplifting to our Father God. “Praise” in the Hebrew is “zamar {zaw-mar'}”, which means, “to sing and make music, and perhaps identical with the idea of striking with the fingers, meaning to trim, prune.” Christ Jesus teaches us that our Father God is the Husbandman or He who prunes [John 15:1]. “Husbandman” is derived from the Greek word “ergon {er'-gon}”, which means, “an act, deed, thing done: the idea of working.” Rapping, musical instruments, singing, praise dancing are all deeds or acts of praising our Father, but is less than the work our Father God is expecting from us. Consider these Scriptures:

Psalms 103:7 says, “He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel. Psalms 47:7 says, “For God [is] the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding. “Ways is derek {deh'-rek}” in the Hebrew, meaning, “to cause to go, lead, march, tread.” The “way” is what leads us through our journey or course of life, meaning, ”Jesus is the Way”, the Word of our Father God made flesh, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth [John 1:14]. “Acts” is “`aliylah {al-ee-law'} or `alilah {al-ee-law'}” in the Hebrew, meaning, “a practice of doing something” such as rapping for God, praise dancing for God, singing and playing instruments for God, even wantonness. “Deeds” are those things done in a bad sense, such as, “they perverted all their doings, they acted perversely or wickedly.” Hence, we can surmise that “act” is actually playacting, or one who is a hypocrite. “Understanding” is “sakal {saw-kal'}” in the Hebrew, meaning, “to look at, to attend or turn the mind unto. To have insight, have comprehension, wisdom and prudence, to prosper, have success. To have skill, teach or instruct.”

When one praises our Father God with understanding, He will make known His ways as opposed to His acts unto one as our Father God made known unto Moses. Our Father said of Moses in Deuteronomy 34:10, “And there arose not a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face,” Verse 11 says, “In all the signs and the wonders, which the LORD sent him to do in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land,” Verse 12 says, “And in all that mighty hand, and in all the great terror which Moses shewed in the sight of all Israel.” When one praises our Father God by seeking to understand His ways, like Moses, one will be the instrument our Father God uses to make known His acts as opposed to being one who observes those acts. Paul teaches that we are to walk by faith, and not by sight [II Corinthians 5:7]. Hence, understanding our Father God’s ways requires faith, while observing His acts requires only see, feel and touch, “which Moses shewed in the sight of all Israel.” Paul further teaches us that without faith it is impossible to please our Father God [Hebrews 11:6]. “Wherefore, let us labor by faith to know our Father God’s ways, and not to behold His acts, that we may be accepted of Him.” Once again, we know through the teachings of Paul that faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of our Father God [Romans 10:17]. Hence, our Father God’s ways are realized by understanding His word. Praise ye the LORD! Matthew 17:5 says, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.”

Yours In Christ,
I Bid You Peace

Book of Colossians

Colossians – Chapter 4

Colossians 4:1 says, “Masters, give unto [your] servants that which is just and equal; knowing that ye also have a Master in heaven.” You want to remember to never ask anyone to do anything that you are not willing to accomplish yourself, and as well, remember a laborer is worthy of their hire. Father God is our Master in all things and He is fair and just in dealing with all of His children and our LORD expects people to follow the examples as taught by Christ Jesus, treating each other as you would have our Lord treat you.

Colossians 4:2 says, “Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving;” Relentlessly pray to our Father God in the Precious Name of Jesus and thank our LORD for answering your prayers. You thank Father also when what you are asking for you may not receive, knowing and understanding that Father will always see to it that you have what is needed when you are faithful, studying His Word, and trusting and having faith that Father always hears you and answers according to His good will, what is best for you. Prayer is speaking to Father God and you can talk with Father whenever you want to since He loves hearing from His children. Father knows everything that is going on within your life, however He wants to hear it from you. Share your love, joy, sorrows, laughter with He who created all for His good pleasure.

Colossians 4:3 says, “Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds:” Paul was imprisoned for teaching the “mystery of Christ” which is the “truth of Father’s Word.” He taught, just as the very elect of this generation, what happened in the Spiritual or First Earth Age, why we were born from above, that the tares are the children of satan, the kenites; he taught what “thus saith our LORD.” The very elect of this generation, sharing truth, planting seeds wherever they may be heard would likewise be placed in prison if it were possible. The kenites and the Biblically illiterate do not want Father’s children understanding truth; they want them believing lies so they are ripe for the deception of satan when he is cast to this earth as the first/false christ.

Colossians 4:4 says, “That I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak.” No one can stop Father’s Word from being taught just as Paul was inspired to write this very Letter we are studying and other Books of the Bible from prison. Father will see to it through His election that His Word will be evidenced from the hearts and minds of His chosen children to all with ears to hear and eyes to see.

Colossians 4:5 says, “Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.” For all of those you come into contact with, as well as those you may never meet face to face who are without the truth of our Living Word who is Christ Jesus, plant seeds of truth by any means necessary since this is sharing the wisdom of Father God. Our LORD has made it possible as we now live to share His Truths through many means such as television and via the computer. “Redeeming the time” means to spread the true gospel when the time is right which is now. It is up to each and everyone one of Father’s children to receive truth while it may be found and that time is now. When you come across one who is ready to receive a truth which you determine through spiritual discernment, plant the seeds and pray they receive the increase. If you come across those who defy the truth of Father’s Word, move on since you do not want to cast your pearls before swine [Matthew – Chapter 7].

Colossians 4:6 says, “Let your speech [be] alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.” “Grace” means “good will, loving kindness.” “With salt” means “wisdom provided with power, vigor to preserve Father’s Word, taught with flavor {knowledge} so that it is uplifting to the hearer.” To keep Christ Jesus on the Throne, Father’s Word should be taught with boldness, confidence and in this way satan is brought down to the nothingness that he is while Christ Jesus, our Living Word is lifted up. Verse yourself in Father Truths through faithful study and prayer so when one seeks answers you can provide them according to the Word of Almighty God, from the Holy Bible {study Books such as the Strong’s Concordance}, which rejuvenates life and extends to His children understanding through our Father’s power and might which leads to everlasting life.

Colossians 4:7 says, “All my state shall Tychicus declare unto you, [who is] a beloved brother, and a faithful minister and fellowservant in the Lord:” “Tychicus” means “fateful {significant/crucial}.” Truth will be taught by the faithful boldly and a little salty because it is crucial for all to come to understanding of Father’s Word since there is great deception [satan] soon to be cast into this world. Truth brings you to the mindset as the very elect and because of this knowledge, Father God can bring you from that state of free will wherein you have to ask Him to intercede within your life, to a state of being under the will of Father God as you are grafted into His Perfect Plan just as the very elect are when you come to understanding and accept the “True Word.”

Colossians 4:8 says, “Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that he might know your estate, and comfort your hearts;” When you accept seeds of truth planted by the very elect it brings you “Peace and Rest” through “Christ Jesus our Living Word.” Comfort comes from the Holy Spirit and by the blessings of “Father God Almighty” when you seek, ask and knock for that increase of understanding only our LORD can give.

Colossians 4:9 says, “With Onesimus, a faithful and beloved brother, who is [one] of you. They shall make known unto you all things which [are done] here.” “Onesimus” means “profitable or useful.” If you want to know the plan of Almighty God and understand the love He has for all of His children, read and study the greatest love story ever told with understanding, which is the “Holy Bible.”

Colossians 4:10 says, “Aristarchus my fellowprisoner saluteth you, and Marcus, sister's son to Barnabas, (touching whom ye received commandments: if he come unto you, receive him;)” “Aristarchus” means “the best ruler. “Marcus {writer of the Book of Mark}” means “a defense.” “Barnabas” means “son of rest.” Christ Jesus is our only Ruler, for He is Melchizedek” which means “King {Melchi} of righteousness {zedek, the very elect} [Psalms – Chapter 110].” When you are under the veil of Father God Almighty, Christ Jesus, our Living Word is your “Defense” against the events that shall lead up to the end of this Flesh or Second Earth Age and He is your “Rest” because understanding truth eliminates any doubts [darkness] in the promises of “Father God Almighty who is always Faithful and True.”

Colossians 4:11 says, “And Jesus, which is called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These only [are my] fellowworkers unto the kingdom of God, which have been a comfort unto me.” “Justus” means “just.” When you have walked in darkness, sitting in a church most of your life having learned no good thing of the “Plan of Almighty God”, when finally a seed is planted boldly flavored with salt that gets your attention from one of the very elect, listen, seek Father God in the Name of Christ Jesus as Justus did, and remove yourself from the doctrines, traditions and pulpit gurus that shall lead you straight into the arms of the first/false christ who is satan here to rapture you away. Romans 2:28 & 29 says, “For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither [is that] circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:” “But he [is] a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision [is that] of the heart, in the spirit, [and] not in the letter; whose praise [is] not of men, but of God.” Hebrews 4:11 says, “Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.” You want to “work for that rest {labour}” by studying Father’s Truths, so your mind is never filled with “doubt {unbelief} of the existence of Father, who created all things of Heaven and earth.” Babble and confusion, which is of satan, is dismissed when you are Biblically literate. If you do not experience that circumcision of your heart and mind with Biblical knowledge, you will become as the children in the wilderness that became prey to unbelief, resulting in their being a day late.

Colossians 4:12 says, “Epaphras, who is [one] of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.” “Epaphras” means “lovely.” Father God created mankind for His pleasure and to please Father you should be working faithfully as you study to show yourself approved, seeking that understanding only our LORD can give so you can be under the “will of Father God Almighty only.” Christ Jesus taught us how to commune with Father in Matthew – Chapter 6, Verse 10 saying, “Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as [it is] in heaven.” Not your will or the pulpit gurus will, the will of Father God only and to know what is required it is crucial that you study and show yourself “lovely” as is taught in Philippians – Chapter 4 {8 & 9}. You become as a just one when you follow and believe the teachings of Christ Jesus which puts you under the will of Father God Almighty.

Colossians 4:13 says, “For I bear him record, that he hath a great zeal for you, and them [that are] in Laodicea, and them in Hierapolis.” “Laodicea” means “justice of the people” and “Hierapolis” means “holy city.” Churches likened onto “Laodicea” do not even realize how wretched they are as they teach salvation over and over, never touching our Father’s Truths, afraid of controversy from those lacking understanding, starving our Lord’s sheep, but popular to the Biblically illiterate because of riches according to earthly standards. As with the other churches, Father God is telling those likened unto this church to re-think their choice to remain Biblically illiterate, believing in the rapture and not knowing who the kenites are and what happens at the Sixth Trump. Spiritually, they are blind and living in poverty of the worse kind. Our Father in His great love for His children, tells this church He wants their true love that is as “gold tried in the fire”, wherein all of its impurities are burnt away [false doctrines and teachings], becoming clean and pure [Revelation 3:14 – 19], experiencing circumcision spiritually. As to the “holy city”, Ezekiel 16:8 & 9 says, “Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time [was] the time of love; and I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord GOD, and thou becamest mine.” “Then washed I thee with water; yea, I throughly washed away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil.” Father is telling us how much He loves Mount Zion, so much so our LORD took her to be His wife, making an eternal covenant wherein we understand Father God married that hill, being the same place where our Lord Jesus Christ was crucified. It is the same as when Christ told us to wait on Him, our Bridegroom, as a chaste virgin for the marriage of the Lamb. This is an analogy for your understanding so you know that Father loves this place and He is there for the Eternity once it is cleansed from the abomination that has taken place. Ezekiel 48:3 says, “[It was] round about eighteen thousand [measures]: and the name of the city from [that] day [shall be], The LORD [is] there.” This is the name of “new Jerusalem”, “The LORD is there” because this is His home, with our Lord Jesus Christ and all of His children for all of Eternity.

Colossians 4:14 says, “Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas, greet you.” “Luke” means “light-giving.” “Demas” means “governor of the people.” Father God blesses His children with many talents, spiritually and psychically. The gifts you have to sustain the flesh, when you are a student of Father’s Truths, can and should be used to spread the gospel to all with eyes to see and ears to hear. Mankind needs to understand that while we yet live in the flesh, it is the Word of Father God Almighty that is to lead your spiritual self so that you are with Him throughout eternity. It takes many parts to make up the many-membered Body of Christ Jesus which is the Temple of Father God. Let your light so shine according to the teachings of Christ Jesus that you and all those you come into contact with, see the good of our LORD emanating from you and they themselves will seek to be under the power of Father God wherein their spiritual selves are governed by our Living Word who is Christ Jesus.

Colossians 4:15 says, “Salute the brethren which are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church which is in his house.” “Nymphas” means “bridegroom.” There should not be all the many denominations as exist throughout this whole earth as we now live. There should be one church of Christ Jesus wherein all christians are learning the truth of Father’s Word together. The purpose is to not be a part of the deception of darkness who is satan when he is cast to this earth to perpetrate the greatest deception ever to be known to mankind as the first/false christ. Mankind, loving our Father God should be waiting for the return of our True Christ who now sits at the right hand of His Father, away from His bride, the church, who is mankind, His family, for a short time. When our Lord returns at the Seventh Trump, He expects to find His intended bride {mankind} working {planting seeds of truth} in the field {the world}, faithfully waiting for Him while in the service of our Father God Almighty.

Colossians 4:16 says, “And when this epistle is read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that ye likewise read the [epistle] from Laodicea.” Until Christ Jesus returns, all of mankind should be studying the letters our Father inspired through His very elect and has given to all, generation to generation, as our “Holy Bible.” Those of darkness, satan and his entourage, have done and continue to do all within their pitiful power to keep Father’s Word from being spread throughout the nations. It is the very elect who shall never turn their backs on Father God and guided by His hand and under His will, a veil of protection all around, will continue, as Paul and all those of the Holy Scriptures, to be light-givers to those who walk in darkness and deception.

Colossians 4:17 says, “And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it.” “Archippus” means “master of the horse {power}.” The very elect, confident always in our Father God, will bring forth the True Word boldly, with saltiness when necessary, as the power of the Holy Spirit works through them, always prayerful through Christ Jesus. It is the will of Father God, as we now live, this world in a terrible state, for seeds of truth to be planted whenever and wherever they will be heard since it is our LORD only who can lift us up and let us stand on the Rock of our Foundation who is Christ Jesus. Time is growing short as we see the events taking place around us as is taught in Matthew – Chapter 24, Mark – Chapter 13 and Luke – Chapter 21. Those labor pains are coming closer together which will bring in the birth of a New Age, which is the Eternal or Third Earth Age.

Colossians 4:18 says, “The salutation by the hand of me Paul. Remember my bonds. Grace [be] with you. Amen.” Pray for one another, stay faithful in our LORD God Almighty, studying as Christ Jesus taught us to, seeking the blessing of the Holy Spirit. Never forget the greatest love of all, Almighty God who took the flesh through His Beloved Son Christ Jesus, sacrificing His Perfect Self on that cross for all of mankind that we may receive the healing when coming before His Throne, the crucifixion of Christ Jesus having rent that veil from top to bottom. “Father God is our All in All and That’s That!”

Book of Colossians

Colossians – Chapter 3

Colossians 3:1 says, “If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.” Through baptism you are resurrected because of your belief in Christ Jesus. Now look to Father God Almighty for your increase of knowledge and blessings, all through Christ Jesus in whose name we pray. Stop looking to those things you can see, feel and touch, your pulpits gurus as well since none of these things or people can bring about your salvation or eternal life; only Christ Jesus can. Our Lord sits at the right hand of His Father and is our Intercessor to Almighty God [Romans – Chapter 8 {34}] since that veil of separation was rent from top to bottom when our Lord was crucified and rose from the grave.

Colossians 3:2 says, “Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.” “Affection” means “to have understanding, be wise {within your mind}.” Meditate on the love of our Father God and Christ Jesus, study to show yourself approved and meditate on those truths so they are engraved within your heart and mind with understanding. We are only passing through this Flesh or Second Earth Age and you do not want to become a part of the wickedness that is bred with the weakness of the flesh. Your life, your soul belongs to Father and He created all to bring Him pleasure [Revelation – Chapter 4 {11}].

Colossians 3:3 says, “For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.” There is eternal life with Father God through Christ Jesus only. While we exist and must live in this world, that does not mean we have to be a part of it, meaning those things that are evil and wicked, anything that causes you to drift away from our Father’s love, as in allowing pulpits gurus to become the focus of your life wherein your spiritual self is pulled down low and away from the pure love of Father God Almighty. Let your light so shine as is evidenced in the “Book of Life” which is Heaven with Father God and tells the story of your living in this flesh and let it demonstrate by your words, deeds and actions love for He who created all souls for His good pleasure, “YAHOVAH, Father God Almighty.”

Colossians 3:4 says, “When Christ, [who is] our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.” It is through Christ Jesus that all receive eternal life. When Christ Jesus returns to this earth at the Seventh Trump {Seal, Vial} as “King of kings and Lord of lords [Revelation Chapters 14 & 15]”, it will be the very elect, having the seal of truth within their minds, never having been deceived by or bowed down before the first/false christ who is satan [Sixth Seal/Trump/Vial - [Revelation – Chapters 9 & 10 – Witnesses Murdered ], that shall be able to approach our Lord during the Millennial Kingdom teaching. It is the very elect of Father God under the reign of Christ Jesus our High Priest, who shall lead, guide, direct and instruct in the teaching of the true Word as our Lord reigns supreme. This is why you are living in the flesh, to find rest, who is Christ Jesus, our Living Word; our Sabbath.

Colossians 3:5 says, “Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:” “Mortify” means “deprive of power, destroy the strength of – the spiritually dead; liable to die.” Those full of the ways of the world doing all kinds of evil and wickedness, giving in to the lusts and desires of the flesh, serving religious things that bring about revered idolatry will all cause you to turn away from the love of Father God Almighty. Therefore, let the fleshly things that keep you from the path Christ Jesus taught you to walk on which leads you to the light of eternal life, die. You do not want especially any form of idolatry within your life and false teachings from the Biblically illiterate will surely draw you in to that blasphemous living.

Colossians 3:6 says, “For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:” You are either walking with Father God through Christ Jesus or you are against our LORD believing in the doctrines and traditions of men which keep you from a path of obedience. When you are with Father you will receive His blessings as you now live, through the Millennial Kingdom teaching, and wear that garb of your righteous acts throughout the Eternity. If you are disobedient as you now live, which means you are void of His Truths and bow a knee to the first/false christ because of this ignorance, you will be under that cup of Father’s wrath which shall be poured out by Christ Jesus at the appointed time, which is discipline and chastisement to bring about correction. So stay away from those who are self-righteous hypocrites, churches flooding with them, and be under the veil of truth by receiving a seed planted, studying to show yourself approved and receiving the blessing of understanding only Father God can give through Christ Jesus when you seek, ask and knock.

Colossians 3:7 says, “In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.” All, even the very elect at one time walked in the spiritual ignorance most of the people of this world are a part of now. The difference is however, chosen before the foundation of this Flesh or Second Earth Age, when a truth was heard, it was accepted, and that one reached out to Father for the increase of understanding only He can give and never looked back. The very elect have sense enough to separate themselves from the folly demonstrated in houses of “Beth-aven [satan – house of emptiness, nothingness, vanity]”, and plant their feet on the solid foundation of the “House of Bethel {house of God – as the churches of Smyrna and Philadelphia} who is Christ Jesus, our Living Word.” The very elect are not perfect because of these truths and this is why we constantly thank our Father God who has given all salvation and repentance through Christ Jesus when we fall short, and as surely as there is breath in the flesh, all will fall short since flesh is doomed to sin.

Colossians 3:8 says, “But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.” Father God wants His children to enjoy this life we are living in the flesh, however never forget we are passing through this Age to chose to love and follow Father God or to follow satan who is the son of perdition. Love, peace, faithfulness, joy and rest within your spiritual self are all found through Christ Jesus. If you have anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication within your spirit it is because you are away from Father God and your spiritual self is tormented and having unrest since you are communing with satan.

Colossians 3:9 says, “Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;” Truth, which is having understanding of Father’s Word, comes from the hearts and minds of those who are a part of the many-membered body of Christ Jesus. When you study and receive the increase of understanding from Father God, you shed your spirit of the “old man which is the lies of doctrines and traditions of men/false teachings.” Deliberate falsehoods and deceiving by lies are for those who have a spirit inclined to the things of this world which means they are communing with evil and wicked deeds which is of satan, loving babble and confusion.

Colossians 3:10 says, “”And have put on the new [man], which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: Putting on “the new man” means you have a “rejuvenated spirit in Christ Jesus {truth}.” “Christ is Emmanuel {God with us}”, therefore if you have seen the Son you have seen our Father as Christ Jesus taught in John – Chapter 14 {9 & 10}. Through our Lord who sacrificed His Perfect Self on the cross at Calvary, all can now come to salvation and repentance and become as a new lump unto our LORD, having cleansed yourself from all those things that offend, finding rest {Christ Jesus} in the many-membered body of Christ Jesus.

Colossians 3:11 says, “Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond [nor] free: but Christ [is] all, and in all.” No matter how bad, wicked or evil you may have been, whenever you come to believe in our Lord Jesus Christ accepting Him, repenting of your sins before the Throne of Father God Almighty, you become a part of the many-membered body of Christ Jesus, His family, knowing faithfully that He is our “All in All.” There is no good thing in life you can do without Father God Almighty and His Beloved Son Christ Jesus.

Colossians 3:12 says, “Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;” The very elect understand those events that shall consummate the end of this Flesh of Second Earth Age and anxiously await, praying faithfully for the return of our Lord Jesus Christ as “King of kings and Lord of lords.” While waiting patiently, there is much work to be done in the field which is the world since there are many false teachings permeating the minds of those calling themselves christians and otherwise. Father God is longsuffering {patient} [II Peter – Chapter 3 {9}] because He wants all of His children whom He loves to come unto the Light of Truth, our Living Word who is Christ Jesus. Father is giving mankind the opportunity to put away foolish things [doctrines and traditions of men] and seek the truth while it may be found and He expects His election to have a heart of good will as they continue to plant those seeds of truth wherever they may be found.

Colossians 3:13 says, “Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also [do] ye.” “Forebearing” means to “hold up one another.” Our walk in the flesh is not perfect and there will be times of quarrels, misunderstandings, times when you just cannot get along with someone or people in your life. Seek forgiveness from Father God through Christ Jesus, forgive yourself and ask forgiveness from whomever you have offended. Father God will always forgive a pure heart who goes on and tries to do and live better; according to His Word. People however may not be so forgiving. Therefore use common sense and if you cannot get along with them and have done all good things to resolve, then move on, kick the dust and let Christ lead, guide, direct and heal you, them and the situation, as you continue in faithful prayer as well.Let no one cause you separate yourself from the love of Father God wherein your spiritual values in Christ Jesus are compromised.

Colossians 3:14 says, “And above all these things [put on] charity, which is the bond of perfectness.” “Charity is “love, good will.” “Perfectness” is “moral and spiritual completeness.” Love can be a very misunderstood emotion. This is why it is so important to have that necessary bond with Christ Jesus wherein your spiritual self communes with the Spirit of Father God Almighty who leads you into spiritual completeness. Father God shows His love for all of His children consistently, never-ending and this is why He intercedes in your life if you belong to Him, having understanding of the True Word, or at least seeking that truth, which means you have removed yourself from the doctrines and traditions of men that keep you locked in babble and confusion. Even if you are not on the path of Christ Jesus, you are still Father’s children and because of His great love for you our LORD will, just as He does with His election, forgive when you repent from a true heart and discipline when necessary.

Colossians 3:15 says, “And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.” Take time in your daily life to commune spiritually, heart to heart with Father God in prayer and conversation. It is through our Father that you receive blessings of love, peace, joy, happiness, protection, comfort and rest through Christ Jesus. Our LORD gives each of His children gifts and it is by and through these gifts the many-membered Body of Christ Jesus is made up. There is no greater gift anyone can receive than having understanding of Father’s Word for which your heart always should be thankful to receive the blessing of that knowledge.

Colossians 3:16 says, “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” “Admonishing” means “warn, exhort {encourage}.” Studying Father’s Word so you have understanding of His Truths, which means that truth “dwells” within you through Christ Jesus and the blessing of the Holy Spirit you are able to share that wisdom while planting seeds of truth. When another is coming to truth, that knowledge you have from faithful study allows you to help them by answering questions one may ask as they are seeking understanding of Father’s Word as well. Sharing your gift is what brings spiritual harmony into the many-membered Body of Christ Jesus which greatly pleases our LORD since it brings Him pleasure; a sweet melody to His ears.

Colossians 3:17 says, “And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, [do] all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.” When you pray, speak with Father God, always do so in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ who sits at the right hand of Father God and is our Intercessor to Almighty God. When we pray in this manner, Father knows that we believe in His Beloved Son, our Living Word, in whom He is well pleased.

Colossians 3:18 says, “Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.” This is taught as well in Matthew 19:5 & 6 which says, “And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?” “Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.” When a man and woman are joined through the birth of a child or through our civil laws of marriage one to another, that man and woman become as one spiritually under the Light of Christ Jesus through our Father God and it is their responsibility to not allow anyone to separate them. If there is a separation, Father God and He only is the judge and jury as He leads, guides and directs that decision, and that man and woman should seek forgiveness before the Throne of Almighty God through repentance, forgive themselves and each other in the blessed Name of Jesus and go on with their lives.

Colossians 3:19 says, “Husbands, love [your] wives, and be not bitter against them.” When you are joined together in one flesh, love is pleasing and what brings one delight should bring delight to the other as well. It is important to remember that leaving Father God out of your union will allow worldly things to step in and when that happens you can be assured there will be indignation, annoyances one toward another. Again, being in the flesh life will not be perfect, however when you are standing on our Rock who is Christ Jesus, peace will always prevail over chaos, as will common sense if you come to the realization the union is not evenly yoked.

Colossians 3:20 says, “Children, obey [your] parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.” Father wants parents to raise their children as is taught in Proverbs – Chapter 22 {6} which says, “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” When children become of the age of understanding {accountability}, they are expected, in order to be pleasing to Father God, to listen to their parents who must be versed in Father’s Word as well, so they mature spiritually, physically, mentally and emotionally to understand Father’s Truths, be under His veil of protection and receive blessings only our LORD can provide.

Colossians 3:21 says, “Fathers, provoke not your children [to anger], lest they be discouraged.” Encourage your children with love and spiritual things since the worldly things are always present in their daily living. Let your children know they are loved and you want to care for them, that they are of good character and never let your child feel they are worthless, of no good, having no ability to learn and achieve. Children are bright and it is the responsibility of the parent to talk with them, patiently, always explaining the reasons for actions being taken. Never chastise a child in anger and when it is time for chastisement, be sure there is understanding of why this action is necessary, all things accomplished in love. You want your children to be grateful for their upbringing. Father God is mankind’s Parent and all things He does is because of great love for us and our LORD gave us a whole Word of “who, what, when, where and why.”

Colossians 3:22 says, “Servants, obey in all things [your] masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God:” “Fearing” means “revering, loving Almighty God.” When Father blesses you with a job to take care of your needs and the family, do not be a slacker having that get over mentality. Give a day’s work for a day’s pay. Show your good character and thankfulness to Father God who makes all things possible when you love Him and are obedient to His Word through Christ Jesus. Rest assured that people around you can always see something in one who has a grateful spirit in Father God because nothing they do that is harmful to you can cause you to stumble without Father lifting you right back up. It is best that they watch their own footing when messing with Father’s election.

Colossians 3:23 says, “And whatsoever ye do, do [it] heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;” Always remember that while you have an employer, you are working for Father God who makes your blessings possible and this should cause you to find peace within and love our LORD endlessly. Father God is directing you on how to be successful which does not mean you will be rich; it means you will have what you need. When having what you need comes from the blessings of Father God you are far richer than any dollar sign in anyone’s bank account. Father has promised never to leave or forsake His children and He always takes care of His own. When you are in the service of Father God, doing His will, studying His Word, being a part of His perfect plan, there is no individual that can pull you from the veil of protection Father keeps over you.

Colossians 3:24 says, “Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.” We are passing through this Flesh or Second Earth Age and have no true interest in the riches of this world since not one thing, not one penny shall go with any individual into the Eternal Age. However, Father God sees to His children having what they need and expects all things given to be managed wisely. Father’s children, His election know that they are living and doing His will as we live in the Flesh and are being blessed day and night just as Father promised. Our LORD also promised there will be an even greater inheritance within the Eternal Age of His Kingdom to all who serve Him mightily, according to His perfect plan and will, through Christ Jesus [Revelation – Chapter 7].

Colossians 3:25 says, “But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.” Father God is fair and everyone gets what they are deserving of which means “you reap what you sow.” If you never bother to study Father’s Word and allow yourself to be deceived by satan at the appointed time, you receive what you deserve when Christ Jesus returns and through the Eternal Kingdom. If you are working in the field which is the world for Father God, planting seeds of truth you have learned along the way to any who will receive them, you will obtain the blessings of Father God multiplied many times over throughout the Eternity, as well as while walking in the flesh. The course you chose is of your own doing. Father has given His Word for all to partake of and if you are too busy, too pre-occupied, very self-absorbed in playing church and following your pulpit guru, you will get what you deserve, multiplied as well. While Father God may “not be a respecter of persons”, He surely knows who His election are and that He can count on them to do His will, knowing when they fall short to seek repentance through Christ Jesus, shake off the dust, and continue do the “will of our LORD God Almighty, Faithful and True.”

Book of Colossians

Colossians – Chapter 2

Matthew 28:18 says, “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.” “All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth”, spoken by our Lord Jesus Christ to those with ears to hear and eyes to see. When you are in Christ Jesus, studying His Word, seeking that understanding only Father God can give, your faith and trust in Christ opens your heart and mind to “receive and obey His voice.” Knowing this, why would anyone want to listen to the babble and confusion spewed in churches daily, kenites sitting at the helm, their doctrines and traditions dulling the minds of those calling themselves christians. There is power when you enter into Christ because He enters into you, bringing salvation to mankind when He gave of Himself as a Perfect Sacrifice for all on that cross at Calvary, having taking our stripes that we may receive the healing. In order to be a vessel Father can use to be a part of His Mighty Plan, you must be a part of the power of Christ Jesus and under the Veil of Father God Almighty. When entered into this power with our Lord, it is not for things of the flesh, rather, it is for and to be a part of the will of Father God. When you are in Christ Jesus, His Spirit will make you whole, taking care of your flesh needs so they do not become an obstacle of those things Father has placed within hands that will do His work.

Colossians 2:1 says, “For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and [for] them at Laodicea, and [for] as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;” “Laodicea” means “justice of the people.” Paul is wishing, having strong desire to look right into your eyes as he teaches you the truth of Father’s Word as the very elect of this generation long to do. When one has come into the knowledge of truth, it is to be shared wherever it may be received,

Colossians 2:2 says, “That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;” We must all be of one accord, understanding, “knit together” in that knowledge that “Christ Jesus, Father God Himself personified in the flesh”, gave of Himself on that cross for the sins of mankind. Understand this “mystery” which is acknowledging the complete love Father God has for all of His children, wanting each and every one of us to likewise love Him. We are the many-membered body of Christ Jesus, the Holy Spirit dwelling within each of us so we are a part of “His power.” The very elect of Father God are very aware of satan and his evil influences within this world as he provides that false sense of wonder, that negative side which tries to imitate Christ Jesus, and successfully so if you are not a part of the power of our True Christ. There is only one way to not be deceived by satan’s spirit now, or his influence when he is cast to this earth, and that is to be a part of the many-membered body of Christ Jesus, adopted into “His power, which is Biblical knowledge.”

Colossians 2:3 says, “In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.” “Those hidden treasures of wisdom and knowledge” is having an understanding of the “First Earth Age”, why we are born from above, what the sin in the garden was, who the kenites are, what shall befall the whole earth when satan is cast from Heaven into this world, and what that deception is he brings to keep most of mankind in darkness.” As we live in the flesh, it is for the sole purpose of choosing to follow and worship our Father God Almighty and Christ Jesus or satan, who is death, the son of perdition. Biblical illiteracy will cause most of the people of this world to follow, bow a knee to and worship the first/false christ, who is satan. The very elect have come to the knowledge of truth, accepting our Lord, repenting of sins, seeking that forgiveness through Christ Jesus from our Father God. The Holy Spirit then dwells within you through seeking knowledge and understanding, those things once hidden, now understood, hands doing Father’s work as His gospel is unveiled to all who will listen and see the “Light of Truth, who is Christ Jesus, our All in All.”

Colossians 2:4 says, “And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.” This is what Paul is concerned about as are the very elect of this generation, that most of the world, those calling themselves christians giving reverence to their pulpit gurus who speak enticing words, instead of revering Father God Almighty and Christ Jesus. Pulpits are full of Biblically illiterate actors and actresses with their feel good doctrines and traditions of men, their see, feel and touch philosophies, “beguiling, sexually seducing {spiritually speaking}” the minds of their congregations. When this happens you have allowed “a man {any person} to beguile you with enticing words just like satan did to Eve in the Garden of Eden.” Study for yourself, seeking that understanding only Father God can give and remove yourself from the antics of those hands doing the work of satan because of their own ignorance. If your pulpit guru is teaching of the rapture, any moment, fly away doctrine, you best put on your best running shoes and get away from them as quickly as you can because this teaching is not Biblical and Father God does not like it. If you want to know what Father feels about the rapture, study Ezekiel – Chapter 13 {17 – 21} and heed the warning {woe}.

Colossians 2:5 says, “For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ.” Paul is no longer with mankind in the flesh, however his teachings as inspired by Father God are. Father God is yesterday, today and tomorrow and our LORD promised that He “would never leave or forsake His children” as long as we believe and are steadfast in our faith in Christ Jesus. Father God’s power is alive whenever you stand with and for Christ Jesus because “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me [Philippians 4:13].” Remember, satan is a formidable opponent and he is coming to this earth to bring about damage to the hearts and minds of the Biblically illiterate peacefully and prosperously [Daniel 8:23 – 25], however the very elect stand on our “Rock who is Christ Jesus, our Living Word” because they are not as a “reed shaken in the wind” as the Biblically illiterate are. Stop playing church and study to show yourself approved unto Father God.

Colossians 2:6 says, “As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, [so] walk ye in him:” Traditions of men have taught that there are days of the week to spend with our Lord when in fact, each day of our lives as children of Father God we should be walking with Christ Jesus. Father God is faithful as Hebrews 13:5 says, “[Let your] conversation [be] without covetousness; [and be] content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.” There is a relationship with Father God when you study His Word, meditate on His love and promises; redeeming the times we are living in, pleading for the return of our Lord Jesus Christ who is our Living Word, each and every day. Christ Jesus gave of Himself on that cross at Calvary for a reason; repent of your sins daily. Just as you feed the flesh every day, your spiritual self must be fed as well and it is needful that you do so to be pleasing to our Father. Prayer and study is the manner in which your spirit communes with Father’s Spirit in the Name of Christ Jesus and you come to understand truth from lies spewed from pulpits by any means necessary.

Colossians 2:7 says, “Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.” When you are “rooted” with understanding of our Father’s Word, no person with their false doctrines, traditions of men or any other form of Biblical illiteracy can shake you from your foundation. This is why pulpit gurus hate to be in the presence of Father’s very elect. We are grounded in faith, standing on Christ Jesus who has adopted the election into that “power”, blessed by the Holy Spirit to understand what “thus saith our LORD {as ye have been taught}.” We do not contend with those who pick and chose from Father’s Word, twisting truth, rather, we commit ourselves to faithful study “Chapter by Chapter, Verse by Verse, Precept upon Precept” just as “Christ Jesus, the prophets, the disciples, and all those vessels Father God used to bring about the Truth of His Precious Word.” This is the only way to become “stablished in the faith.” When that knowledge, truth and understanding unfolds within your heart and mind, then comes “thanksgiving”, for Father God will truly bless any who seek His Truths, and this brings about “great joy in your daily life as you wait for the return of Christ Jesus as King of kings and Lord of lords.”

Colossians 2:8 says, “Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.” “Beware” is a warning which means “to see, discern.” “Spoil you” means “to lead away from the truth and subject to one's sway.” “Philosophy” for the Biblically illiterate means “forming the best plans and using the best means for their execution of evil deeds and teachings.” “Vain deceit” means “empty words.” “Rudiments” means “wickedness {prosperously}.” Pulpit gurus with their happy dancing, shouting, hallelujah corners, mesmerizing songs, putting on a show with their theatrics will lead you right off the Christ-like path you should be on. While it is necessary for mankind to live, survive and understand the ways of this Flesh or Second Earth Age that does not mean you have to partake of those things that are evil, always being wiser than the serpent and his seed, who is satan and his entourage [kenites]. It is satan’s pride and greed that caused his downfall in the First Earth Age, wanting to take over the “Mercy Seat of Father God Almighty [Ezekiel – Chapter 28].” His children, the kenites, are no different to this very day as they manage the churches, which are nothing more than businesses, allowing your pulpit gurus to spew their philosophies which are nothing more then babble and confusion since they never bother to study Father’s Word with a pure and desirous heart for understanding. Most every church practice is not even Biblical. They are man-made rituals which exclude Father God because their foundations are based on lies and ignorance of denominations people created since they most certainly are not Biblical. Pulpit gurus place themselves in jeopardy playing church and so do their congregations who listen and never bother to study for themselves. What need do you have in listening to someone acting like a fool in the pulpit after reading a couple verses from the Holy Bible, mocking truth with their theatrics, when “Christ Jesus has given you the whole Truth, right and in order from Beginning to End.” Do you want to know what Father God feels about the pulpit gurus throughout this world, study Hebrews – Chapter 5 {11 – 14}, and show yourself approved unto Father God Almighty.

Colossians 2:9 says, “For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.” The sum of the matter is, “the fullness of the Godhead” rests in Christ Jesus, “Emmanuel”, which means “God with us, as He gave of Himself for the sins of mankind on the cross. Father God personified Himself in the flesh, born from above, through Christ Jesus. This is why prayers to our Father God are through His Beloved Son, our Intercessor, which proves without a doubt our faith in Christ Jesus. Our Lord said in John 14:9, “Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip {mankind}? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou [then], Shew us the Father.” Christ Jesus, after His resurrection, ascended to sit at the right hand of His Father, “all power given unto Him in heaven and in earth [Ephesians 1:17 – 23].

Colossians 2:10 says, “And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:” When you are in Christ Jesus, our Living Word, Father God gives us power over all of our enemies wherein there is victory when you clear your mind of the doctrines and traditions of men, and become as a babe in Christ, seeking spiritual understanding [Luke 10:18:21]. Father God is over all things, “allowing” those events which shall befall the whole earth to take place because it is all a part of His plan. We are “born from above” for a reason, to choose Father God or the son of perdition, who is satan, to follow and worship. It is through Almighty God that you come to this understanding and receive power over all enemies so your hands are working for our Father God, preparing for Christ Jesus’ return to this earth as “King of kings and Lord of lords.”

Colossians 2:11 says, “In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:” “Circumcision” means “spiritually - of christians separated from the unclean multitude {doctrines/traditions of men} and truly consecrated to God.” This is through the Holy Spirit as you make an altar unto Father God within your heart and mind, being that “circumcision without hands” because it is spiritual. Spiritual circumcision is having understanding of the mysteries of Father’s Word. It is of the heart {Romans – Chapter 2 {28 & 29}], not of the flesh and this truth is for all of mankind. When there is no repentance for sins committed and no understanding of Father’s Truths, your heart is “uncircumcised {spiritually speaking}.” When you understand the sacrifice Christ made on the cross for mankind, the veil of the temple rent from the top to the bottom, Father God’s gift of salvation offered to all who repent through His Beloved Son, your heart becomes “circumcised {spiritually speaking}” through Father’s Word. With forgiveness, that sin being lifted, forgiven, you become as a new spirit and you walk in faith, having a heart and mind inclined to those things which are spiritual, as in understanding Father’s Word, removing yourself from worldly things and those teachings contrary to the Word of Almighty God.

Colossians 2:12 says, “Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with [him] through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.” This is to say you died with Christ Jesus spiritually. Baptism is belief that Christ Jesus sacrificed Himself for the sins of mankind. As He was placed in the tomb and rose, we are submerged under the water because we have belief that our Lord Jesus Christ resurrected, therefore rising with a rejuvenated spirit in our Lord who is Eternal and our salvation. “The ‘operation’ of God” is “that energy drawn from Father to be a part of His plan”, being a new spirit in Christ Jesus wherein you become a part of and are under the will of Father, becoming His vessel/servant and your hands doing His Work. Once you have come to belief and faith in Christ Jesus, baptized in His name, there is work to be done. It is time to open the Word of Almighty God, study and show yourself approved, understanding the mysteries unveiled to all who seek that knowledge and truth through the Holy Spirit which is the unction [I John – Chapter 2 {20}] of Father God, bringing you to all understanding. It is impossible to be one Father God can use for the fulfillment of His plan if you are not familiar with what “thus saith our LORD.”

Colossians 2:13 says, “And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;” “Uncircumcision” means “spiritually - a condition in which the corrupt desires rooted in the flesh were not yet extinct.” “Quickened” means “to make alive.” Repenting of sins through Christ Jesus with a pure heart, thanking Father God for the awesome price paid upon that cross, our LORD will “forgive you of all trespasses {against Him} and daily sins committed.” Father washes them away, blots them out and He does not want to hear of them anymore since that sin is forgiven and we are now to change our behaviors and seek Christ Jesus while He can be found. Being joined with Christ, who is our Living Word, your heart and mind should be inclined to understanding those things of Father’s Word, accepting what happened in the First Earth Age, why we are now living in this Second or Flesh Earth Age, the occurrences that shall bring this Age to its end; preparing for the Eternal Age/Kingdom.

Colossians 2:14 says, “Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross:” Christ Jesus became our “Lamb slain” for one and all times, there being no need for any further blood sacrifices since Christ nailed those ordinances and rituals {ceremonial laws} to the cross. The sacrifice of Christ “blotted out that requirement {handwriting}” which are now the doctrines and traditions of men that lead Father’s children astray. Many teach at this time Christ Jesus also changed the law and that is contrary to the Word of Father God which says in Matthew 5:18, “For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.” The sacrifice Christ made on the cross stopped only the blood sacrifices. Psalms 40:6 says, “Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.” This is to say, Father God did not want those burnt offerings, He wanted pure love from His children.

Colossians 2:15 says, “[And] having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.” “Principalities” are “demonic - satan, his evil spirits - anything evil that is against Father God.” Ephesians 6:12 says, “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].” Christ Jesus defeated death, that darkness and spiritual wickedness, who is satan [Hebrews 2:14] and has given us “power” over satan as well. Luke 10:19 says, “Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” When Christ Jesus sacrificed Himself on the cross for all of Father God’s children, He “spoiled {disarmed} principalities [satan] and powers [authority over mankind].” The vile one, satan, has no power of his own. All he has is what “Father God allows”; the reason, “for the fulfillment of His plan.” If satan’s spirit is ruling your life it is because you are allowing him to since Father has given us power over him through Christ Jesus, wherein there is victory. Your weapon is to have understanding of the very Word of Almighty God.

Colossians 2:16 says, “Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath [days]:” Do not allow yourself to be blinded by doctrines and traditions of man wherein your religion is based on that which you eat or drink, a holiday or anything else as the Biblically illiterate teach, remembering always that Christ Jesus is the Head of what we believe {the many-membered Body/christianity}. Most of what is taught in those buildings called churches are teachings which judge according to ordinances which were nailed to the cross as Christ Jesus sacrificed Himself for the sins of mankind. Father has given His Word to direct our lives. He has taught of those things which we are to eat and drink, as well as those things we are to avoid, being scavengers of the earth. Father has taught us that the “new moon [months]” relates to children of the night, and when you are in Christ, you are children of the “Light {days/years}” since Christ Jesus is the “Light of the world.” Father has taught us that we are to worship Him each day since the “Sabbath” means “rest”, seven days a week. Christ Jesus is our rest [Hebrews – Chapter 4] and we should be of His Spirit, praying, studying and meditating within His love each and every day of our lives, coming into the understanding of truth which brings you spiritual peace.

Colossians 2:17 says, “Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body [is] of Christ.” The feast, holy/holidays days and sacrifices were a “shadow of things to come”, who is “Christ Jesus our true Sabbath.” Our Lord Jesus Christ did all things for Father’s children, sacrificing Himself and becoming our “Passover Lamb” according to the “will of Father God Almighty.”

Colossians 2:18 says, “Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,” Let no person deceive you with their vain notions or spiritually seduce you {spiritually beguile} with their lies and Biblical illiteracy from the deprived human mind. Christ Jesus is our Intercessor to Father God Almighty and there is no manner of person we need to come before our Lord Jesus Christ on our behalf with their religious foolishness, tricking the flesh minds of people. Their claims of witnessing the work of angels and the Holy Spirit speaking to them are lies, weakening minds, happy dancing while their congregations and followers dig deeper into their pockets to enrich their carnal lives. When that veil was split, Father God opened His Throne for all of His children who seek Him in love. When communing with Father it is necessary to remove yourself from the “fleshly mind” and take on your spiritual self through Christ Jesus, since you must understand Father God in spirit as John 4:24 says, “God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in truth.”

Colossians 2:19 says, “And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.” “Nourishment ministered” is to all those a part of the many-membered Body of Christ Jesus, “knit together”, eating and drinking {spiritually speaking} the Word of Father God Almighty. “Holding the head” is to say, the brain brings together the true ministry of Christ, the mouth speaking what “thus saith our LORD”, the ears hearing and eyes seeing. Christians are the many-membered Body of Christ Jesus and He is the “Head.” This is why there is a church on every corner, television and radio ministries too numerous to count, all just as Biblically illiterate as they can be, because their brains are on flesh highs when they should be thinking spiritually, disengaging themselves from the doctrines and traditions of men and seeking to understand those mysteries only Father God can grant the increase of when one is of the Spirit of Christ Jesus.

Colossians 2:20 says, “Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances,” That is to say, if you have separated yourself from the evil and wicked things of this world because you are of and in Christ Jesus, you are on the path which keeps you moving toward that “Light which is Christ Jesus” and removes you from the doctrines and traditions of men. All things come to pass exactly as they are written within Father’s Word. Believing that Christ Jesus was sacrificed on the cross, shedding his blood for the sins of mankind, eliminating those ordinances necessary before His coming, what sense does it make to let your pulpit guru keep you in bondage to those things Christ freed you from. Father God made it very plan that He wants love from all of His children, not offerings, which are now rituals, doctrines and traditions of men within your churches. Liken that bull sacrificed in the days of old to that bull coming from the mouth of your pulpit guru today, and do away with it by removing yourself from babble and confusion.

Colossians 2:21 & 22 says, “(Touch not; taste not; handle not;” “Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men?” If you are claiming to be of Christ Jesus, who has given us teachings, all we need to know within His Word, what logical sense does it make to listen to what the pulpit gurus are telling you to do or what not to do, reading their books when you have the Holy Bible, following their doctrines and traditions when you have instructions from Christ Jesus. These are the same pulpit gurus Christ Jesus, when He returns to this earth as “King of kings and Lord of lords”, will say to them, “get away from me, I never knew you [Matthew – Chapter 7 {12 – 23}.” The teachings of pulpit gurus with their rapture, fly away, any moment doctrines, whatever name you want to put on it, will lead you straight into the arms of satan, who is death, the son of perdition. The spirit of truth comes from having the power of Almighty God over your head and within your mind which comes from studying the greatest love story ever told, the “Holy Bible.”

Colossians 2:23 says, “Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.” As we walk in this flesh, there is only one way to be fulfilled and that is in loving Father God, walking in the faith of His Beloved Son. Otherwise, you are under the “wisdom of will worship [flesh]” by choice, which means you are following the doctrines and traditions of men, fooled by their religious folly and enticing words that sound so holy. Most churches of today, being Biblically illiterate, have set into place their own form of what they call christianity, when in fact it is simply religious standards, man-made and infested with the ceremonial rituals not of our Father God. This is religious bondage. If religion is locking you into oppression when Christ Jesus has freed us from bondage, you have allowed yourself to be removed from that adoption of power over satan, not a part of the adoption unto Christ Jesus who proclaimed upon his resurrection, “all power is given unto me in heaven and in earth and Father God who said, “this is My Beloved Son in whom I am well pleased.”
