The meat of the word? Not heavy revelation,esoteric knowledge,a mystical meaning, but doing the will of the Father John 4:32 Without The Camp
Leaving
the cosy man-made structures behind to follow Jesus in the wilderness
where
total dependence is on Him. A direct, two way relationship,
without
the obstruction of clerical redtape or religious fraternities. Know
Ye Not - "Ye Are The
Church!" Being in Christ makes you His Body
without further requirement!
The System, along with its "spiritual professionals", would inform you
otherwise ... "heeding and yielding to their teaching grants you
the assurance of salvation (or at least, not going off the
rails)"! Contrary to the Book ... "to
them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all
that in every place call upon
the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs
and ours"! Simply
Christians
Here is a another practical thesis (author unknown) that is all too
simplistic and basic for those who would trust
in their
own
intellect or education for revelation. In fact, as it
sounds
soo goood to be true, it would too
hard to
believe or swallow from the diehard religionist or skeptic.
Unless you believe God has given His called-out people
an
infallible book to trust and place their life on. Furthermore, by
seeing that
institutionalizing His church is not only illegitimate, but absolutely
futile in the first place. It's true, the old garment should not
be
patched up, but needs dumping and replaced with the new. Meaning
... brands, tags, labels or slogans, have no place in the kingdom
of God. The (Mystery of the) Two Wines In this mystery (the new replacing the old) lies revelation hidden from the 'overly clever', and reserved for the hungry humble 'nobody', of whether we are serving God through an alternative (mans preference), or the bona fide (God's mandate). Knocking over a few sacred cows on the way. The (Mystery
of the) Two Trees
There is a difference between what is good and evil and what is good
and
perfect. One is earthly, while the other is heavenly. The
promise made ... by partaking of the latter one finds they
have God's
favour and can live forever. In a
nut-shell ... rounding off the
controversy of heaven and hell once and for all. The
Fallacy Is
following Jesus found at the table of partaking in abstract emblems, or
eating at the table of real life experience, minus artificial settings? Obedience,
Freewill, and the Sovereignty of God What comes first - the chicken or
the egg? As Bible believers believing in the Creator as well as
in His Book, we know (without a shadow of a doubt) the chicken comes
first. However, an egg still needs nurturing and responsibility
exercised in order for it to come forth and produce. While God
does His part the called-out are called to do theirs ... in the Spirit
of
course! Meaning, choice is real (and scriptural) after all.
The Conspiracy Against the Name of Jesus Who is our root, our rock, and our firm foundation? Is it a nation called Israel, or is it a Jew called Jesus of Nazareth? Be informed ... there is a real agenda out there to confuse or undermine the name of Jesus with a whole host of Hebraic, generic, scrambled names. In the name of Jesus let all replacement names and subtle forms of bringing the saints back under the Old Covenant, be exposed! The Parent God our Maker and Father being smoke-screened so the devil can hide behind his own image being set up, deceiving the masses to worship the image instead of the Creator. The only hope of not being swept away by this New Age tsunami, is by being anchored to what is sure and steadfast ... the stand-alone scriptures. The Three Ho's Selling what is highly esteemed of man, or choosing the narrow way of scorn and derision. Is God pleased with memorials and decorations erected to His Son? Or does the kingdom of God come without signs to be observed? Revealing of course ... only spiritual things are spiritually discerned! That's by those who are spiritually reborn and place no confidence in mans religious alternative. The
Mixture Iron cannot mix with clay, old
cloth cannot be patched up with new cloth, nor can old wine does go
with new skins! Meaning ... religiosity and reality are
poles apart! Moreover, here you can discover
the link between sun worship, holy days, the New Millennium, and
paganizing
the true faith. Along with the urgency, the necessity, and the
cost, of
eradicating the mixture within. What's Wrong with
"Contemporary" Christianity? Some
get the church confused with the kingdom. Others use their church
to exploit and sell their version of the truth, by inventing a
counterfeit of God's authentic gospel. It all comes
back to the root of all evil being the love of money. Outside of
reality, take away
the product and you are left only with wind. The reason ... the
kingdom
of God is not of this world and neither are those who are (spiritually)
born into it. Baal Worship In Disguise Iz Easter and other "Christianized" trappings and observances bona fide forms of worship? Or at itz best ... iz it commercialized religious wrappings? Or at itz worst ... iz all this hotchpotch disguised pagan practices? The Gatecrashers If it's true that Jesus said He would build His church and the gates of hell would not stand against it, then why would His servants fight?. Meaning, the Christian life has got nothing to do with believers storming heaven or physically defeating the heathen in military combat. Nor getting mixed up in politics. Therefore, see for yourself what Paul meant we he said, "the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds." Giants, Angels, and the Sons of God Aliens,
monsters, demons, ghosts,
and the paranormal! From demigod
gladiators, warrior goddesses, to mystical creatures of all that is
grotesque,
vile, and a caricature of Creation! That's the preoccupation of
the
fallen world at present. However, this is in total and direct
contrast to God's admonishment to His people (Phil. 4:8)... to
think on things that are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, of good
report, and where there is virtue and praise! While casting down
imaginations, fables, and every high thing that exalteth itself against
the knowledge of God.
