Revelation 20:12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
Learn the real history of the Vatican and it's apostasy from the truth.
I cannot now quite remember where to find it, but it seems that 7th hill was given to the Vatican through an agreement during the WWII! One would think that, if anything, they would want to distance themselves as much as possible from being recognized for what they are, as shown in the Scriptures! Perhaps they never read that part, if any part they read!!
14Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? 15And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? 16And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 17Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. 18And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
2 Corinthians 6:14-158 (King James Bible)
One has to truly forsake whatever brains God has given any to believe the garbage taught in the Roman Catholic Church! How pathetic!
...
Ephesians 6:11 – “Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” The idea here has to do with the fact that we are to stand. We are to stand in the position that we have in Christ. We are to stand in body truth. We are to stand in the truth of the word rightly divided – in what is operative today.
Here is the issue. Ephesians 6:12-14 – “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of his world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 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. Stand therefore.”
The issue is standing in your warfare with the Adversary. The issue is not taking a bazooka and blowing his head off or taking some M-88s and mowing him down. The issue is just standing in the truth that God has for the body of Christ – the preaching of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of the mystery. You are to take your stand there and hold the ground that God has given you.
You are standing and you are withstanding. And when the satanic attack comes, you do not give any ground to him. You hold all the ground that God has given you, all the blessings that God has given you in Christ, all the completeness that he has given you. You hold on to that, and you do not let any of it slip. And you are not moving away from it, but you are strong in the Lord and in the power of his might. You are not made strong by the Lord, rather you are strong in the Lord. You are standing in him and the complete position that he has given you in Christ.
You are taking those things, and you are putting those doctrines on as armour. There is a spiritual armour of doctrine that you encase your life in, and your soul in, so that you can withstand and so that you can stand in the position God has given you.
Now, in verse 12, he says that we wrestle not against flesh and blood. I think I already said to you that “wrestling”, in this verse, is a very special term. It is a unique term that is used by Paul to describe the combat that we have with the Adversary. Our combat with the Adversary is described as a personal, hand-to-hand combat that is a struggle. We, personally, are grappling and struggling. It says, “wrestle”.
This is not fun and games. This is “wrestling”, and in the context here, it is hand-to-hand combat to the death. It is not just an athletic game, or a promotional thing to raise millions of dollars. It is a struggle, a hand-to-hand combat between two soldiers who are in hand-to-hand combat intent upon destroying one another. It is a serious issue.
And that is the reason he uses the term here. These are soldiers wrestling together. It is a serious matter, and somebody is going to be destroyed. The Adversary wants it to be you.
Not only is it a serious matter, but it is a personal struggle. And that is the reason he says it. This is not a corporate struggle that can be done way off at a distance. This is struggle that you, as an individual believer, are engaged in day in and day out in your life. And there is a satanic policy of evil directed at you individually, and you need to understand it.
And it doesn't have anything to do with seeing demons behind the lamp stand and that kind of thing. It has to do with some doctrine in the word of God. And Satan wants to trick you with his wiles, and his schemes, to move away from focusing on the doctrine and the truth. He wants to cause you to move away from the spiritual realities that are operative today. He wants you to focus on the physical, the circumstantial, and all the rest, and not focus on that thing that God is doing today.
Today, God is forming the church, the body of Christ. He is forming a spiritual body of believers where he takes Jew and Gentile and places them into one spiritual body on an absolute total equal basis. Everybody is blessed just alike, completely and fully in Christ, by faith in the gospel.
And that gospel is that Jesus Christ died for our sins, was buried and was raised again the third day according to the scriptures, and that he ascended up unto the right hand of God the Father in heaven. And there we are seated with him in the heavenly places.
By faith in the finished work of the Lord Jesus Christ, you and I are made a part of this spiritual body that God is forming because we rightly divided the word. We do not go back to the legalism of the former dispensation and try to think that is what God is doing. And we are not distracted by the societal and governmental perfection of a future age, of trying to bring in that kind of a social order. But, rather we understand what God is doing today. We understand that it is a forming of a new creation, a new creature – the one new man of whom we are a part.
And Satan wants to take our focus away from that – the wiles, the tricks.
The essence of a trick is to take something that is real and make it appear like it isn’t real, and to take something that isn’t real and make it appear like it is real.
Those who CHOOSE not to heed God's words will find themselves at a loss when ALL THE CHRISTIANS ARE GONE and the world will be left to the devices of Satan alone!
Then, should any want to still be saved, theirs will be an arduous path, NO LONGER UNDER THE DISPENSATION OF GRACE through which just believing through FAITH in the complete sacrifice of Christ was needed.
These left behind get proof of this, already, when friends and family simply disappear!
In this sermon we will look at the gospel which will be preached during the coming "time of Jacob's trouble" mentioned in Jeremiah 30:7.
We also examine some of the beliefs of Orthodox Judaism, and why God will be sending Moses and Elijah to the earth during the coming 7 year time of Jacob's trouble.
AWESOME SERMON! I do pray you will hear it! It truly helps dispel the many heresies told, even by pastors, who know not to divide the word of God!
Works plus Faith and "the Kingdom is coming" is preached during the days of Jacob's troubles, the Tribulation days!
The same is not for today! Today, in the Church age of Grace, WE CANNOT LOSE OUR SALVATION! We are sealed with the Holy Spirit UNTIL the day of redemption!
. Text: 1 Cor 4:15 For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel. 16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me. 17 For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.
1 Cor 14:37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.
Introduction: Paul was a rabble rouser! Paul was disobedient to the Lord! Paul was a renegade! Be careful when you read Paul you can’t believe everything he says. Paul was a loose cannon everybody knows that.
THESE are just a few of the accusations I hear in increasing frequency. However, if you read the Pauline epistles these accusations begin to make some sense. Paul was “unorthodox” in his message and methods. His teachings do “contradict” the teachings, in great measure, of the then established “apostleship” of his day. Was Paul a loose cannon? Was he a rabble rouser?
THE answer to these questions is a resounding NO!
Before we accuse the man we need to learn some little known seldom taught bible facts.
FACT ONE: Israel and the ministry to her was being diminished by God. Israel had rejected God the father in the Old Testament when they chose Saul to be their king over God. (strike one) Israel rejected God the son by refusing the king and the kingdom when they crucified the Lord Jesus Christ. (strike two) Israel rejected God the holy spirit in Acts with the stoning of Stephen. (strike three) Consequently, and in accordance to God’s eternal plan and purpose he set Israel aside.
Notice: Rom 11:12 Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness? Israel fell and the world got rich – HOW? The Gentiles would now get salvation – not through Israel – but in spite of them.
Rom 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
The reason Paul’s message sounds different than the “four gospels” is because it is different. Paul is not a rabble rouser he has been given a new and distinct ministry and commission – apart from Israel and her 12 apostles!
FACT TWO: Paul had an “unorthodox” gospel! This is a very easy point to establish but does not get very much pulpit time in contemporary religious establishments. Please notice what Peter – the Christ appointed leader of the 12 (Mat 16:18-19) taught about eternal life.
PETER taught – Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Question: Peter how do I get my sins remitted? Answer: Repent (change your mind about who the Lord Jesus Christ said he was – the King Of Israel) And be water baptized in accordance to John’s baptism. (Mark 1:4, Mark 16, Luke 7:30 etc., etc., etc.,) Peter did not preach the blood of the cross for salvation to Israel!! Notice again: In Luke 9 the apostles are out preaching the gospel…. Luke 9:6 And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing every where. What gospel are they preaching? It is NOT 1 Cor.15:3 & 4 which we will look at in just a moment. But observe what the 12 did not know. Luke 18:31 Then he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished. 32 For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on: 33 And they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again.
Sounds like they have been out preaching the death, burial and resurrection of Christ all over the nation doesn’t it? Sounds a lot like 1 Corinthians 15 doesn’t it?… But they haven’t been and it isn’t! – Read the next verse: Luke 18:34 And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken.
There is no way on God’s green earth that you can go and preach a gospel that you 1. Do not understand – 2. Is hid from you and 3. You know nothing about.
FACT THREE: So either the bible itself is corrupt (and it isn’t) or when Paul comes on the scene something new and different is happening.
Blind orthodoxy will mix the two – Bible believers will believe their bible “rightly divided”!
Those who would follow the Lord today will have to follow Paul…
Paul writes to the Corinthians and says: 1 Cor 4:15 For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel. 16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me. 17 For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.
Do you know the ways of Paul? If you are in a denominational church I doubt very seriously that you do – otherwise you would not be there.
Do you follow Paul? He is our (the Gentiles) apostle today, in the dispensation of the grace of God. He writes in 1 Tim 1:16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.
If you would follow the Lord Jesus Christ you must follow Paul. 1 Cor 14:37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.
The things Paul wrote were not the suggestions of the Lord. They are the commandments of the Lord.
1 Cor 11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.
Paul got his information directly from the risen Lord Jesus Christ. If you would follow Christ today you must follow Paul.
Phil 3:17 Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample. 18 (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:
Paul commands the Philippians to follow him that he was the ensample.
1 Th 1:6 And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost: 7 So that ye were ensamples to all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia. 14 For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews: 15 Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: 16 Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.
The Thessalonians followed Paul and in doing so became ensamples to others.
Be careful to note in this verse the condition of the Jews! They have been set aside along with their program. One day they will be God’s people again and will carry his message again. But not today. Today in the dispensation of the grace of God, Paul is our apostle and pattern. I didn’t say that – God said that!!
With the recent push for "gay rights" and the signing of the NDAA Bill into law, the possibility for Bible-believing Christian persecution is FAST approaching! IF this time comes before the rapture, how will Christians be able to survive?
In today's sermon we look at the practice of worshiping the Lord in secret. Many Christians have done this in the past, and many more do today in countries like North Korea, China, and Pakistan.
You will see the two choices from scripture when persecution comes. You will need to decide between martyrdom or hiding from the evil.
This sermon is NOT about paranoia or bringing fear, but rather about making preparations for what could be coming soon to the English speaking Christians!
In this sermon we look at 5 promises that God has made to Christians. The bible says in Titus 1:2 that 'God cannot lie', so we know that what God has promised WILL come to pass.
My Comment left on this sermon:
“ What a great and comforting sermon! ”
Indeed! Today I cannot comprehend how it is that dividing the word is not spoken of by the majority of pastors, I would say! I feel so very blessed that you "harp" on it all the time! What comfort to KNOW exactly what is what in the word of God!
So-called "Christian" broadcasting stations are so very bogus! They are anything but Christian, filled with apostate preachers! I am so very impatient for His coming, but at the same time, am so very happy that he did not come when I was not as yet saved. Statistics show that one is seldom saved in their fifties and over! Praise God, as usual, I just don't fit the mold, again! I was 52 when saved, but went some 10 years from church to church, never hearing the "right" message until it was I learned of the King James Bible! Then all understanding came cascading into place! What a wonderful feeling!
Yes, just about an hour ago I answered someone who said "if we just got together with others," etc., etc.. How blind these are!
Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners. 1 Corinthians 15:33
The opposite does not happen! We need to "keep separate" for our God is a holy God and does not accept leaven!
Thank you, Pastor Bryan, for another great sermon!

WHAT EVERY TRUE CHRISTIAN SHOULD KNOW: RIGHT DIVISION -Bruscha & One Book Rightly Divided -Stauffer
I must address something that some have suggested about this my blog: "True Christianity vs Roman Catholicism"!
Thankfully, some words have more than one definition! Perhaps it decries the poverty in one's vocabulary to not know this! Therefore, by definition "vs" (versus) ALSO may signify "IN CONTRAST TO."
I would think that the efforts I here make to REACH Roman Catholics would make it obvious to any rational being that I am not AGAINST them! I am against their INSTITUTION, which seeks to keep them blind to the truth of the word of God!
I was raised a Roman Catholic, and was in literal shock when first I read the New Testament! It was only then I realized just what it meant to be a True Bible Believing Christian! I thank God for this discovery!
I have been a Bible-believer for the past 15 years. Praise God He drew me and the Holy Spirit opened my eyes.
My life's mission is to get as many Roman Catholics out of the cult in which they are, quite innocently.
John 6:44a "No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him"
Thank you, my dear God, for drawing me into Your fold!
I am the LORD: my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.(Is 42:5-8)
14Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
15And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
16And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.
18And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
2 Corinthians 6:14-18 (King James Bible)
Worship of mother and child spread from Babylon to the ends of the earth, called by different names
Madonna and Child "Semiramis became known as the "queen of heaven," and was the prototype from which all other pagan goddesses came." --World Religions by David Terrell - // "Semiramis, in particular was the model and original of every goddess and female cult figure in the ancient and modern worlds." --SEMIRAMIS, QUEEN OF BABYLON by Bryce Self
The following pictures show the lengths to which the Roman Catholic Church will PROSTITUTE ITSELF!
John Paul II in a Mosque KISSING the Koran, just as he does the Bible during services
Here is Pope John Paul II confidently being anointed with the PAGAN "Sign of the Tilak" - A PAGAN RELIGION, NO LESS!!
I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to graven images. Isaiah 42:8 (KJB)
John Paul II places Buddha ATOP the Tabernacle, in Assisi, to be WORSHIPPED TOGETHER WITH THE EUCHARIST during the ensuing ECUMENICAL ceremony with Buddhists! Here you see a Buddhist elevating his arms at the Altar!
...so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 2 Thess 2:4
POPE WORSHIP: Los Angeles Times, December 12, 1984, quotes John Paul II as saying: "Don't go to God for forgiveness of sins: come to me."
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 1 Timothy 2:5 KJB
MARY WORSHIP: 1987-MAR-25: In his encyclical Redemptoris Mater, Pope John Paul II "referred to Mary as 'Mediatrix' three times, and as 'Advocate' twice." AND SO, TODAY, THE ROMAN CATHOLICS HAVE HER AS JUST THAT!!
And Roman Catholics notice not the Pagan fish-hat connection? Such satanic-induced blindness!
The Pope's and Pagan Dagon's hats and vestments are alike!
