As many of you who have been here for some time know that what i post i directed toward those who say I am a Christians, but have not learned to put their faith and trust in the Son of the Father.
Christ Jesus our Lord and redeemer.
The one who says put others before yourself, the one who has said when you see a brother in need, if you have the means to provide that need then you are to do so.
1John 3:17
But whoever has the world's goods, and sees his brother in need and closes his heart against him, how does the love of God abide in him?
1John 3:13-22
¶ Do not be surprised, brethren, if the world hates you.
We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brethren.
He who does not love abides in death.
Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer; and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him. We know love by this, that He laid down His life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
But whoever has the world’s goods, and sees his brother in need and closes his heart against him, how does the love of God abide in him?
Little children, let us not love with word or with tongue, but in deed and truth.
We will know by this that we are of the truth, and will assure our heart before Him in whatever our heart condemns us; for God is greater than our heart and knows all things.
Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence before God; and whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do the things that are pleasing in His sight.
1John 3:23-24
¶ This is His commandment, that we believe in the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as He commanded us. The one who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. We know by this that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.
(i wasn’t going to say anything but this morning it seems i must. i am going to be open and honest of what has been on my mind the last three weeks.)
First; you by now should understand this world is not my home.
i would rather wake up dead from a disease, knowing my faith was anchored in Christ, then to run to the doctor every time i have a sickness.
(and yes, i do have things medically wrong with me, two that could take this body at any time, but if not will eventually end in this body’s death)
my faith is in Christ, ether He will heal me or He allow it to run the coerce and i will wake up dead in His arms.
Ether way my faith is in Him and Him alone.
Romans 8:28-31
And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.
For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren; and these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He called, He also justified; and these whom He justified, He also glorified. What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us?
These scripters i hold to heart, they are the ground under my feet.
i pray you understand.
So here’s what is on my heart this day;
If we call ourselves Christians, why do we do the things we do?
As most of you know our Son and His family own s café,
it is heard enough now days to own and operate a small business with the powers to be trying to take everything you make, and now days it is even difficult some weeks to bring in top quality food you need to sell to those who come in, especially if you are purchasing the highest quality food to prepare for those who come in.
Here is my gripe:
A couple weeks ago i was setting with a couple regulars in the café,
One of them was listening to my grandson telling a customer at another table that they were out of grave, and when He had walked away from the table one of the customers i was setting with stopped him and said
“how would you be out of grave?”
“I see you guys running to the store every day?”
my gerandson replied
“we went up to get pour milk yesterday and they didn’t have any.”
And He walked on.
Then the guy i was setting with continued on complaining, the sad part was when the one who calls Himself a Christian added in to condemning the café, and the kids.
The most striking thing is these guys eat gravy once a month if at all.
Now my biggest gripe;
The one who calls himself a Christian came in sick, coughing and admitting he was sick, stating it out loud in a café with a room full of others.
That was bad enough, but then he returned day after day for the rest of the week, looking wors each day.
(seemed to have the attitude of the world,)
(the attitude of - to hell with you, this is all about me)
And one by one the 5 grandkids and then our Son and Daughter-in-law all got what ever this man has or had.
How this week they are having to close the café.
No great lose for the so called Christian, but with the government taking all they can, with the difficulties of getting top quality food each week, now they are still having to deal with bills to pay but with no income for possibly a week, perhaps longer.
These men who have, would rather take, men who also present themselves as of more value the all others,
One is not a Christian the other clams to be a man of GOD, a pastor.
But when the actions are compared to the word of GOD in 1John 3:17. ????
((1John 3:17 But whoever has the world's goods, and sees his brother in need and closes his heart against him, how does the love of God abide in him?))
Shows who that Christian really is.
i do not say these things to put down this man,
but rather to perhaps open your eyes.
What side of the table are you on.
Do you put others before yourself?
Or are your wants and desiers so important that no one ells maters?
Think about it.
Your actions are so much louder than your words.
If you are sick stay home.

This is directly opposite of the ways of the world.
But we are not to be of this world,
but to obey the words of Christ Jesus.
Jesus tells us, we are to love our enemies and pray for them.
It Is possible or we would not have been told to do it.
The kind of love it takes to love our enemies and praying for those who persecute us the kind of love that God has shown to us by sending His Son, the kind of love Christ Jesus showed us when He gave of Himself on the cross.
When we come to Christ Jesus and except His love, when we give our lives back to HIm.
He shows us even more love by asking Father God to send us His Holy Spirit to dwell in us.
By doing this He, Christ Jesus and Father God make it posable for us to show that same kind of love to our enemies, making it posable for us to honestly pray for them.
Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, Jesus Him Self tell us we must do this to become sons of our Father who is in heaven.
We are given the description of what love is
1Corinthians 13:4-7
¶ Love is patient,
love is kind and is not jealous;
love does not brag and is not arrogant,
love does not act unbecomingly;
it does not seek its own,
is not provoked,
does not take into account a wrong suffered,
does not rejoice in unrighteousness,
but rejoices with the truth;
bears all things,
believes all things,
hopes all things,
endures all things.
Love is an action not a feeling,
mankind has declared it a feeling but that is not what we are shown in the word of GOD.

Happy Resurrection Sunday
John 19:28-30
¶ After this, Jesus, knowing that all things had already been accomplished, to fulfill the Scripture, said, “I am thirsty.”
A jar full of sour wine was standing there; so they put a sponge full of the sour wine upon a branch of hyssop and brought it up to His mouth.
Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said,
“It is finished!”
And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit.
John 19:42
Therefore because of the Jewish day of preparation, since the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there.
And then on the third day
Matthew 28:1-7
¶ In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulcher (the grave).
And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
And for fear of him the keepers (the guards) did shake, and became as dead men (they fainted).
¶ And the angel answered and said to the women, Do not be afraid: for I know that you seek Jesus, which was crucified.
He is not here: for he is risen, as he said.
Come, see the place where the Lord layed.
And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goes before you into Galilee; there shall you see him: do as, I have told you.
John 20:11-18
¶ But Mary was standing outside the tomb weeping; and so, as she wept, she stooped and looked into the tomb; and she saw two angels in white sitting, one at the head and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus had been lying. And they said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him.” When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, and did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?
Whom are you seeking?”
Supposing Him to be the gardener, she said to Him, “Sir, if you have carried Him away, tell me where you have laid Him, and I will take Him away.”
Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned and said to Him in Hebrew, “Rabboni!” (which means, Teacher).
Jesus said to her,
“Stop clinging to Me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, ‘I ascend to My Father and your Father, and My God and your God."
Mary Magdalene came, announcing to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord,” and that He had said these things to her.
John 20:19-22 ¶
So when it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, “Peace be with you.” And when He had said this, He showed them both His hands and His side.
The disciples then rejoiced when they saw the Lord.
So Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you; as the Father has sent Me, I also send you.”
And when He had said this, He breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit."
{{{ If you read on in John you will read of three distinct time Jesus came to the decuples after He rose from the dead.
The thing is Christ has risen, and now sets at the right hand of the Father (Father God) Even though our country has declared Easter Sunday a satanic holiday in which they will not even menschen the resurrected Christ, and their god is the one who kills baby’s, their god is the god of perverted sex, their god is the god of slavery not of freedom, their god of the god of lies, deception and fraud; through their willfuly sinful blind hearts they have declared their god to be satin, and have also declared their god the god of America. Dont beleve me go look what hapened in DC today.
If you call yourself a Christian (a follower of Christ Jesus) be aware of whom you are following if you are following after the will of the government, or after a man to save you, you are following the wrong god.
As a true Christian a true follower of Christ Jesus, be grounded in His word and be dedica“the choice is yours.” Choose what side you will be on. If you chose Christ Jesus.
Then obey His commandments.
Apply the words of GOD to your life, mold your life after the life of Christ.
Repent of your sins, turn from your wicked ways, and He will be faithful to forgive you and heal you of all your transgressions.
GOD tells us in 2Chronicles 7:14
If my people, which are called by my name, will humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Want our country healed?
Want to live with in the freedom God has given us back?
If you call your self a Christian, then humbler yourself before GOD, Pray, seek His face, turn from the wicked ways you have accepted in to your life.
If those who call themselves a Christian will in all humidity surrender to GOD turn from evil, and He will heal our land.
For indeed HE has risen from the dead,
Christ Jesus rose victories over death, hell and the grave.
Christ is the risen Lord who sets at the right hand of Father God.
He (Jesus) Is the holy one who will break the seven seal and open the Book
Revelation 5:7-10
And He came and took the book out of the right hand of Him who sat on the throne.
When He had taken the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each one holding a harp and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.
And they sang a new song, saying, “Worthy are You to take the book and to break its seals; for You were slain, and purchased for God with Your blood men from every tribe and tongue and people and nation.
“You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God; and they will reign upon the earth.”
And Jesus the one who as a lamb was slain, the one who rose from the dead, the one who sets at the right hand of Father God.
The only one in all creation who is worthy to break the seals and open the book.
The one whom you call our self by (a Christian)
The one whom; if you do not humble yourself, repent of your evil ways aske for forgiveness of your wicked ways(your sisns),
on that day that is quickly approaching, that day when you will stand before the Lord, will speak these words to you.
“Depart from Me for I never knew you.”
It is your choice, So chose this day who you will serve, set your destiny, Will it be eternal life with Father God and Christ Jesus?
Or will you choose eternal live separated from Father God and Christ Jesus?
Will you give in to the spiritual leading of the government who has chosen to fallow the teachings of satin and his church.
The teaching and ways of the Nicolaitans,
the teachings and ways of Balaam
the teachings of Balak (the murder of baby’s)
the ones who hold to the beliefs of Jezebel (the teacher of immorality, homosexuality, the one behind the perverted sexual revolution).
Heaven or hell, the choice is yours.
It is your choice, so chose.
Christ has risen, sets at the right hand of the Father and will soon take the book, break the first seals and in a voice of thunder say “Come”
setting in action the end of time.
First seal: one sent out to conquering and to conquer.
Second seal: one sent out to take peace from the world that men would slay one another.
Third seal: one sent out saying “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not damage the oil and the wine.” (how’s the price of wood looking in your town?)
Forth seal: and one was sent out with the name Death; and Hades was following with him. Authority was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword and with famine and with pestilence and by the wild beasts of the earth.
(Hum is this where we are heading look around)
Fifth seal: and this takes place;
Revelation 6:9-11
When the Lamb broke the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God, and because of the testimony which they had maintained; and they cried out with a loud voice, saying, “How long, O Lord, holy and true, will You refrain from judging and avenging our blood on those who dwell on the earth?”
And there was given to each of them a white robe; and they were told that they should rest for a little while longer, until the number of their fellow servants and their brethren who were to be killed even as they had been, would be completed also.
(how long are we to wait? no one on earth knows)
Sixth seal:
Revelation 6:12-17
I looked when He broke the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth made of hair, and the whole moon became like blood; and the stars of the sky fell to the earth, as a fig tree casts its unripe figs when shaken by a great wind.
The sky was split apart like a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
Then the kings of the earth and the great men and the commanders and the rich and the strong and every slave and free man hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains; and they said to the mountains and to the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the presence of Him who sits on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb; for the great day of their wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”
(is this where we are in time?
Are we at the breaking of the Sixth seal?)
The sixth seal? It is posable we are standing at the edge of time that the risin Lomb of GOD is about to break the sixth seal.
You who are going by the name Christian, open your eye see what is going on in the world, in your country, in your community.
Just in Revelation alown Christ tells us seven times
“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”
Christ Jesus has been rejected over and over aging and now the leadership of this county and of around the world have declared satin to be their god.
The events that are to unfold when the first four seals are broken look as if the seals may have already been broken.
Has the fifth seal been broken, are the cries of the souls of those who have been slain because of the word of God, and because of their testimony of Christ Jesus that they maintained being heard of Father God right now?
We are not to fear the world or the things of this world.
But we are to fear the one who can redeem your soil or condemn it to hell.
Fear the creator all heaven and earth,
fear the one who parted the red sea,
fear the one who knew you before your conception,
fear the one who holds the sealed book,
fear the one who holds the one who will be coming on the clouds,
fear the one who is the Alpha and Omega,
fear the one who hold the seven stars in His right hand,
fear the one who walks among the seven golden lampstands,
fear the one who was dead and has come to life aging,
fear the one who has the two edged sward,
fear the Son of God,
fear the one who has the seven spirits of God,
fear the one who is holy who is true.
If you are to fear;
then fear the Lord Jesus
fear the one who has the power and authority to break the seals,
fear the one who gave of Himself to be sacrificed on the cross for you,
Fear the one who is risen from the dead victories over death hell and the grave.
2Chronicales 19:7
“Now then let the fear of the LORD be upon you;
be very careful what you do, for the LORD our God will have no part in unrighteousness or partiality or the taking of a bribe.”
Job 28:28
“And to man He said, ‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; And to depart from evil is understanding.”
Psalm 111:10
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding has all those who do His commandments; His praise endures forever.
Fear the Lord your GOD For He has risen.
Happy resurrection Sunday.
He has risen, yes He has risen indeed.
Chose this day whom you will serve, a risen King or a condemned evil world and its ways.
will you chose to follow Him even un to death.
Him; Christ Jesus who stated that He will never leave nor forsake those who are His.
It is time to be planted in the foundation of Christ Jesus.
To put it quite simple, if you are not, your eternity will be in hell, separated from Father God.
Separated from Christ Jesus. for eternity.
It is like i always state; it is your choice!
if you end up in hell you will have no one to blame but your self.
Happy Resurrection Sunday.

2Peter 1:1- 4
¶ Simon Peter, a bond-servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have received a faith of the same kind as ours, by (or through) the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ:
Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord; seeing that His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence.
For by these He has granted to us His precious and magnificent promises, so that by them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world by lust.
{{{ (It is God our Savior Jesus’s righteousness that brings us in to faith, for it is through His righteousness that His seed of faith is given to those who have excepted Him and His love.)
Perter first speaks of faith, we as believers in Jesus Christ, receive by the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ.
And yes, we receive faith from God and savior, Jesus Christ. as we have read before Jesus will provide all our needs, even faith.
It is up to us if we desire that faith to grow or allow it to go dormant.
As believers we have been given everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of our savior Jesus Christ.
As believers in Christ Jesus we have been called by His own glory and excellence.
So that by His own glory and excellence we may become partakers of His divine nature, that by His divine nature it has been granted to us His precious and magnificent promises that as He did, we may also escape the corruption that is in the world, that has been brought in to the world through the lust satin feeds in the heart of man for the things created by mankind, the things of this world, the lust of mankind for anything other then Christ Jesus.
Lust is that overwhelming desire or craving, that Longing desire; that driving eagerness to possess or enjoy someone or something, that intense desire to take part in, that desire to take hold of the things that we think will bring us satisfaction and pleasure.
Man, as to soften his responsibility to not lust after the world and its ways calls lust desire, or even want,
mankind allows want in his life, willfully unaware it will turn in to desire and ultimately in to lust.
And once lust is brought to his attention, he will state something like “no I just really enjoy it.” Sin is sin, you can’t pretend it is not in you, and calling it something other then what it is, does not change the reality of the truth.
Romans 12:1-3
¶ Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is,
that which is good and acceptable and perfect.
For through the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think;
but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to each a measure of faith.
But as in all things it is our choice if that faith given to us grows in us or not allowed to grow. God will not brake your will. }}
2Peter 1:5
Now for this very reason also, applying all diligence,
in your faith supply moral excellence,
and in your moral excellence, knowledge,
and in your knowledge, self-control,
and in your self-control, perseverance,
and in your perseverance, godliness,
and in your godliness, brotherly kindness,
and in your brotherly kindness, love.
For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they render you neither useless nor unfruitful in the true knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
For he who lacks these qualities is blind or short-sighted, having forgotten his purification from his former sins.
Therefore, brethren, be all the more diligent to make certain about His calling and choosing you;
for as long as you practice these things, you will never stumble;
for in this way the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be abundantly supplied to you.
{{{ Faith in GOD has been given to the believe in Jesus and it is through being diligent in asking the Holy Spirit to direct us paying careful attention for the direction of the Holy Spirit, applying much effort, with mush care, even painstaking desire to grow our faith in our God and Savior, Jesus Christ.
by applying all diligence, in our faith in Christ Jesus, He will grow in to us a supply of moral excellence.
And through moral excellence, knowledge,
knowledge of Him and His commandments, and through our knowledge of His Commandments, self-control,
and through self-control, perseverance,
and through perseverance, godliness,
and through godliness, brotherly kindness,
and through brotherly kindness, love.
Just as sin drawing you deeper and deeper in to it.
By diligently seeking after the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ, our faith will grow and in so also will your moral excellence which leads to knowledge, of Him and His commandments that leads to self-control that leads to perseverance that leads to godliness that leads to brotherly kindness and to love.
And what are the two foremost commandments given to us by our God and Savior, Jesus Christ?
Matthew 22:35-40
One of them, a lawyer, asked Him (Jesus) a question, testing Him,
“Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?”
And He (Jesus) answered him saying,
“YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.
This is the great and foremost commandment. The second is like it,
YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.
On these two commandments depend the whole Law and the Prophets.”
call yourself a Christian? then stop hiding behind words and use the faith God has given you,
apply all diligences to seek after Christ Jesus and learn of Him and His ways,
learn to be faithful to Him first and foremost.
But yet still it is your choice to follow after the words of Christ Jesus or not.
Will you obey GODs word?
or will you go your own way down the broad path leading to the large gate??
Matthew 7:13-14
¶ “Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it.
For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.” }}}
i know i repeated myself a few times but it is your / our eternal life that is at stack.
But aging the choice is yours to make.
No one can make it for you.
i chose to love you, and warn you.
For eternity will be a long time (like forever) and to live separated from GOD will be hell,
guess that's why the bible calls it the pit of hell.

1Peter 5:1-5
¶ Therefore, I exhort the elders among you, as your fellow elder and witness of the sufferings of Christ, and a partaker also of the glory that is to be revealed,
shepherd the flock of God among you,
exercising oversight not under compulsion, but voluntarily, according to the will of God; and not for sordid gain, but with eagerness; nor yet as lording it over those allotted to your charge, but proving to be examples to the flock.
And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory.
{{{ as fellow believers in Christ we are to urge on, or encourage the elders of the body of Christ,
that they would not use the authority given them, or the influence they may have over some because of their position, to force or compel a fellow believer to perform in a certain manner.
Their position as an elder is to be a voluntary position.
A position that they are in by the will of God.
Not a position for their own gain,
not gain of power over others,
not a gain of prestige,
not a gain of ego,
nor pride,
not any immoral wrong gain.
They are to eagerly set out to help the body to obey and follow the words of God.
Not lording their position over the body but rather to come along side and to be an example of Christs Jesus and His love, encouraging the body to live in that love to live within the will and protection of Christ Jesus.
An elder is an older man who has the experience of living a life where the Holy Spirit has been given the ability of guiding them through life under their belt, haveing experienced a life subject to and directed by God and His word,
one who has learned to live a humble life toward others not lording over them because of what they have experienced or learned.
One who eagerly and humbly look forward to passing on to te younger believers in the body of Christ the things of the Lord. }}}
You younger men, likewise, be subject to your elders;
and all of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, for GOD IS OPPOSED TO THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE.
{{{ “younger men, likewise, in all humility are to be subject to your elders”
The younger are to learn from the older, for the older have already ether gone through or have seen others go through the same things the younger are going through, so the older know or have seen the consequences of dealing with them.
And the younger should learn to live a life of humility the same as their elders, so that when the younger become the elder, they will h
ave the experience of living a humble life in Christ our Lord. GOD is against a proud person, but a humble person He will give grace }}}
{{{ a take away here: Want grace from GOD; do not take the wide road of a prideful life, but rather take the narrow path and Learn to be humble. }}}
1Peter 5:6-11
¶ Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time, casting all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you.
Be of sober spirit, be on the alert.
Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
But resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished by your brethren who are in the world.
After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen and establish you.
To Him be dominion forever and ever. Amen.
1Peter 5:12-14 ¶
Through Silvanus, our faithful brother (for so I regard him), I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God.
Stand firm in it!
She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, sends you greetings, and so does my son, Mark.
Greet one another with a kiss of love.
Peace be to you all who are in Christ.
Peace be to you all who are in Christ!
Amen and Amen
