πŸ’₯ The evil escalates today. Scriptures to keep before you to guide you.


Don't be caught up in the evil of today and the many stories of evil on news casts today.

Proverbs  4  

1 Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil.

15  Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

We may see the headlines but remember we are not of this world and our kingdom is not of this world.  Therefore we do not react to the things done by this world as others do.  God will judge this world and the apostate churches and God's judgment is just.  

Romans 14:19  Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.

Let us keep ourselves from the evil.  We do not protest the evil as this world does.  Instead. we avoid the evil knowing God will judge.  

Romans 12:19  Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is MINE; I will repay, saith the Lord.

Turn from the evil.  Pray for God to keep you from the evil.  

I watched a little of the news today where Donald Trump was indicted.  Then I turned it off knowing that God will judge either now in this life or later.  

God will judge us and all people.

The judgment seat of Christ:

2 Corinthians 5:8-11  Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of HIM.

10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.  

11  Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men;

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Scriptures to live by in the end times:

Psalm 51:10  (praying)  Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

James 1:25-26  But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.

Remember:  Depart from evil.  Avoid evil.  God will judge.  Keep yourself by the Word of God.

Ephesians 4:29  Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

We never approve the sinners in their sin.  We live by the scriptures.

God will judge them and us.  (whether good or bad)
πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Always keep the scriptures before you and agree with God's word at all times.

Concerning divorce and remarriage:

Matthew 5:32  (Jesus says)  But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

I Corinthians 7:10-11  (A commandment of the Lord for the NT church)  And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband:  But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.

39  The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.

Romans 7:2-3  For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.

3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.

Mark 10:11-12  (Jesus says)  And HE saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her.  And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Concerning fornication:

I Corinthians 6:15-18  Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.

(At the time of sexual intercourse the 2 become one flesh even if you have sex with a prostitute.)

16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith HE, shall be one flesh.

17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Concerning homosexuals and lesbians:

Romans 1

10 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.

20 For the invisible things of HIM from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even HIS eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

I Corinthians 6:9-10  Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate (homosexuals), nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Agree with the scriptures.

Repent of all sins.

Live by the Word of God.

Judgment of God is coming where HE destroys the sinners of this world and also the sinners of the apostate churches who cast aside HIS word and set up doctrines to approve man in their sins.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯


πŸ’₯ Pure religion, undefiled religion, vain religion.

 
James 1

26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.

27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Vain religion: is when we cannot control our tongue.  Just knowing this concept helps so much for it alerts us to ask God for help when we are tried or tempted.

Recently I had a stressful appointment at my eye doctor.  I could feel when I left his office that I was wanting to say things that were possibly unwise to say.  So I began to pray:  "God please help me.  Don't let me say anything I should not say."

It is not so much that we control our tongue but rather we call on God to stop us from speaking that which we should not speak.  Just knowing to do that and doing that shows our "religion".  We keep ourselves under the control of God

vain:  producing no result; useless; powerless; having no meaning or likelihood of fulfillment; without success

If our tongue is out of control, we show ourselves and other people that God is not in control of us.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

To "visit" widows and orphans means to go with the intent of judging their situation and if they have any need that we can supply, then we supply that need. To do this means we have visited them properly in their need.

To supply godly counsel, or physical needs both show a pure and undefiled religion in the sight of God which provides a power and usefulness.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

To keep yourself "unspotted" from the world, would be refusing to take into your heart the empty sayings of men.  

2 Corinthians 10:5  Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

Refusing to take in speculative words of men to allow such to grow in our hearts and bear fruit, making us useless and unprofitable to others.

Instead we prove all things by the Word of God.

Romans 12:2  And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

We would show great spiritual power if we did these thee things:  control our tongues, were profitable in our "visits", and build our house on the word from God rather than taking in the speculations of other humans.

To do these things at all times in our lives would be great gain for us!

πŸ’₯  James 1:22  But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.


πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Podcast: Proverbs 9 / Wisdom

 
 
 
 
Jesus said:

Revelation 3:5  He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before HIS angels.

We must "overcome" as long as we are allowed by God to live on this earth.

The evil of the end times will increase but we do not allow that evil to live in our heart by the wisdom of men.  We overcome by renewing our mind to the word of God.   We overcome through turning to God and asking God to create a clean heart within us and to renew a right Spirit in us.

We agree with that which God says in the Holy Bible and we live by scriptures instead of by the wisdom of men of this world who bring judgment of God upon them in the end time.

We see by Revelation 3:5 that our names will not be blotted out of the Book of Life if we overcome and endure to the end by the Holy Scriptures, believing in HIS Word.

We overcome the evil as long as we live on this earth, holding fast to the Word of God, the Holy Bible, not allowing ourselves to be turned away by those things men of this world say and believe.

We build our house on the Word of God, on the Holy Scriptures.


πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Proverbs 9

1 Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:

2 She hath killed her beasts; she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table.

3 She hath sent forth her maidens: she crieth upon the highest places of the city,

4 Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,

5 Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled.

6 Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

7 He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot.

8 Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.

9 Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.

11 For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.

12 If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.

(scorn:  to feel or express contempt for; to despise another)

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

13 A foolish woman is clamorous: she is simple, and knoweth nothing.

14 For she sitteth at the door of her house, on a seat in the high places of the city,

15 To call passengers who go right on their ways:

16 Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: and as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,

17 Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant.

18 But he knoweth not that the dead are there; and that her guests are in the depths of hell.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

It will get much worse in the days ahead on this earth.

No wonder Jesus said:  For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.  (Mt. 24:21-22)

We must learn to operate in God's wisdom, obeying the Holy Scriptures.

Joshua 1:8  This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

Please keep this writing and all these concepts and scriptures before you and meditate on these things and be sure you are making proper adjustments to your life.

 
Podcast 10 will be presented on April 3, 2023, to give you time to adjust to and do the scriptures in this writing.

πŸ’₯ Keep yourself ready for the coming of Jesus.


Jesus says: 

Matthew 24

42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.


πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Jesus says:

* Watch

* Be ready

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

The apostle Peter tells us how we are to live in order that we can be ready when Jesus returns.

2 Peter 3

10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.

This is a very serious exhortation for us to live by.  We do not know the day nor the hour of Jesus' return.  So this means we must live continually "in peace, without spot, and blameless".

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯   In Peace:  At all times, day and night we connect with God through prayer.  We must learn to do the following:

Philippians 4:6-7

6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

I have a mild case of the eye disease, glaucoma.  So I go in to have eye pressure checked yearly.  And they control the pressure by having me take daily eyes drops in each eye.

There is an eye test called Field Vision which tells them if there is any loss in vision.  But I've been going to doctor yearly since approximately 1995 and they give that test to me yearly but never have they changed the treatment.  I have taken the same eye drops for the past 28 years.

Before going to my current doctor, I made an agreement with him that I would not have to take a Field test.

This past week, was my second appointment.  His technician took some pictures of my eyes.  Then he talked with me.  He showed me the picture.  (I really hate looking at x-rays of body parts!) I tried not to look.  Then he told me he really wanted me to take the Field Test.  (It frightened me!)  I had prayed that he would not want to do anything to me unless it was really necessary. Then he said it was "my choice".  And I did not have to take it.  (I declined.)

Then he asked me would I rather come in every three months or every six months ... and I said, "Every year."  This seemed to surprise him and he gasped a little and then laughed.

(My previous eye doctor told me that I only have a mild glaucoma and didn't need to come in more than yearly.)

This doctor agreed to no Field Test and yearly appointments.

I truly felt a little sorry for him.  When I left his office it seemed he felt a little "needless" except for giving me a prescription for eye drops.

That night, I prayed that if I needed to take the Field test for God to change my mind and I would do so but it just seems so useless since none of my 6 eye doctors ever changed the eye treatment after I took the test.  

I think I just wanted to make him feel that he was doing a work that was needed.

And I realize he cause me to have fear by showing me the x-ray although I tried not to look at it.  Fear went into my heart because I don't believe there is a treatment for this disease.  So as soon as I realized I had fear, I prayed, "God please don't allow me to lose my vision as long as I am on this earth."

After I prayed, peace returned.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  Without spot:

Romans 12:2  And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind (through prayer and Bible reading), that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Julia Child was a very famous chef and writer of books of French cooking.  In the 1970, dietitians began saying foods with fats were bad for you.  Her popularity began to diminish because one of the reasons her foods taste so good was because it had lots of butter in the food.  So they began to urge people to cut back on butter.  After the year 2020, I heard a TV medical person say we need some fat in our diet.

The doctor put my dad on a low salt diet.  He was in the hospital.  When I visited him, he said to me how much he would like to have some fried chicken.  I took some to him.  He began to improve.  Doctor said, "I think we need to put more salt in your diet."

People often say things that are reversed later.

We have to be very cautious concerning taking in saying of humans.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  Blameless:

We must prove our doctrines by prayer and by Bible reading.

James 1:5  If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

If we find we have wronged another person, God will often have me tell them and ask them to forgive me.  After I was born again, God had me go to several people that I had wronged and tell them I repent and ask them to please allow me to make restitution financially.  In one case, I sold a necklace which was questionable, possibly having a treated turquoise stone.  I tried to get her to let me buy that necklace back.  But she was happy with the necklace and did not want to sell it. I was sure I was cleared by making the offer. 

If we have spread a false doctrine and we find out we were wrong, we might need to correct our statement.  I have been so careful with scripture, speaking that which I believed God showed me about the scripture.

When I recognized the wrong in the Faith Movement doctrine, I told my radio audience what I now saw about this point of doctrine.

We must have a love of the truth, a love of the Word of God.  Many will be "damned" because they did not love the truth.  They stayed in a church group where they knew some doctrines at that church were opposite to Bible.  They showed they loved the church more than they loved the Word of God.

2 Thessalonians 2

10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

We must be found by Jesus when HE returns to be at peace, without spot, and blameless.

Podcast: Joel: NT prophecies

 

 
 
God spoke to the prophet Joel to tell him of things to come in the latter days.

Joel 1:15  Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Joel 2:1-2 Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in MY holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;

2 A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Joel 2:10  The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:

(Isaiah the prophet said the same thing in Isaiah 13:13.)

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Joel 2:27-32

27 And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the LORD your God, and none else: and MY people shall never be ashamed.

28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out MY spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:

29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out MY spirit.

30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.

31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.

32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.

(Acts 2:14-21  Peter repeats Joel's prophecy.)

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Joel 3

10 Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.

14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.

15 The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining.

16 The LORD also shall roar out of Zion, and utter HIS voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but the LORD will be the hope of HIS people, and the strength of the children of Israel.

Righteous indignation of the end times:

(Comments by Joan Boney) 

I believe we live in the end times now.  Wickedness increases on the earth and in the apostate churches and that signals the wrath of God that is to come upon this earth as judgment from God for that is not far away.

In the past years, I was furious over that which I was seeing in the churches.  Pastors were adding things to the Bible and telling their congregations things which were not in the Bible.

In one non-denominational church that I visited, the pastor said:  "Sarah and Haggar were 1/2 sisters."  When I got home, I searched the Bible and couldn't find that which Pastor taught.  I called Pastor and told him I was in his church service when he said this and I told him I could not find this in the Bible and I asked him, "Where this is in the Bible?"

Pastor replied:  "I can't remember where it is in the Bible."

I said, "It's very important to me, so would you look it up and tell your secretary where it is and have her call me and tell me?"

Pastor was very quiet for a few seconds and then he replied with great anger saying:  "Okay ... It's not in the Bible!"  

(That pastor lied to me, pretending he couldn't remember where it was in the Bible while he knew it wasn't in the Bible and he just made it up and spoke it to the congregation by his own will.)

All this is very evil and disturbed me greatly.

Pastor did not show any sorrow nor did Pastor repent over what he did.  How can this be?

πŸ’₯  I was looking for a church to attend so I visited another non-denominational church.

It was a Wednesday night.  About 200 people were in the congregation.  Pastor was teaching concerning the woman taken in adultery, John 8.

Pastor said:  "And when they brought this woman to Jesus, she was naked from the waist up." 

I was extremely shocked to hear this for I knew it was not in John 8 in the Bible.

The next morning, I called the Pastor and said:

"I was in your service last night when you spoke about the woman taken in adultery being naked from the waist up and I can't find that in the Bible.  Where does it say that in the Bible?"

The pastor paused and then said, "I really can't remember where that is in the Bible."

I said:  "Well it's really important for me to know, so would you look it up and have your secretary call me and tell me where it is in the Bible."

Pastor was dead silent.

Then the Pastor began yelling at me with great anger.  "All right," he said, "It's not in the Bible.  Where do you go to church."

I was shocked and devastated by what Pastor said.

There was no shame expressed by Pastor.  There was no sorrow or grief shown over that which he had done to the Bible and to his congregation.

How could I stand this?

Then God showed me:

These two pastors were antichrist in the churches and it was even ordained this would happen in churches in the last days before Jesus returns. 

II Thessalonians 2  (The apostle Paul says)

3 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;

4 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.

God said to me:  "The falling away are not people leaving the churches.  The falling away are the churches leaving the scriptures."

And God showed me these churches and their followers who cast aside Bible and set up their own thinking in the churches will be destroyed when Jesus returns:

2 Thessalonians 2

8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of HIS mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of HIS coming:

9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

God will send HIS Wrath upon these apostate churches in the plagues and woes of The Great Tribulation but even then they will not repent.

Revelation 9

20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:

21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.

After God showed me what was going on in these churches today, I lived in peace but never went to apostate churches again.

To be angry can destroy us in the end time.

We must come to understanding of the fact that these sins are going to happen and we will see them.  We just don't go in the paths of the wicked.  There are many scriptures in Proverbs which tell us to depart from the evil and don't go near the evil.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

 
Proverbs 8

1 Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?

2 She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths.

3 She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors.

4 Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man.

5 O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

6 Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of MY lips shall be right things.

7 For MY mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to MY lips.

8 All the words of MY mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.

(froward:  stubbornly unruly; perverse: turning away from truth)

9 They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

10 Receive MY instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.

11 For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

12 I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯


13 The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.

14 Counsel is MINE, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

15 By ME kings reign, and princes decree justice.

16 By ME princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth.

17 I love them that love ME; and those that seek ME early shall find ME.

18 Riches and honour are with ME; yea, durable riches and righteousness.

19 MY fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and MY revenue than choice silver.

20 I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:

21 That I may cause those that love ME to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯


22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of HIS way, before HIS works of old.

23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.

24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.

25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:

26 While as yet HE had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.

27 When HE prepared the heavens, I was there: when HE set a compass upon the face of the depth:

28 When HE established the clouds above: when HE strengthened the fountains of the deep:

29 When HE gave to the sea HIS decree, that the waters should not pass HIS commandment: when HE appointed the foundations of the earth:

30 Then I was by HIM, as one brought up with HIM: and I was daily HIS delight, rejoicing always before HIM;

31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of HIS earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯


32 Now therefore hearken unto ME, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep MY ways.

33 Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.

34 Blessed is the man that heareth ME, watching daily at MY gates, waiting at the posts of MY doors.

35 For whoso findeth ME findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD.

36 But he that sinneth against ME wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate ME love death.

It will get much worse in the days ahead on this earth.

No wonder Jesus said:  For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.  (Mt. 24:21-22)

We must learn to operate in God's wisdom, obeying the Holy Scriptures.

Joshua 1:8  This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

Please keep this writing and all these concepts and scriptures before you and meditate on these things and be sure you are making proper adjustments to your life.

II Timothy 1 (Reading through the Bible)

 
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus,

To Timothy, my dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day; Greatly desiring to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that I may be filled with joy;

When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also.

Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;

Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,

10 But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:

11 Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.

12 For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that HE is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day.

13 Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

14 That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us.

15 This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.

16 The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus; for he oft refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain: 17 But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me. 18 The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in that day: and in how many things he ministered unto me at Ephesus, thou knowest very well.

πŸ’₯ Promises to us from God.


πŸ’₯  Genesis 8:22  (Climate:  The seasons will continue)
 
While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.
 

Until the end of this earth we will have the seasons.  We need to hold fast to this word of God and not be swept away.  

There will be a time to plant and a time to reap.  


And while we may have unusual climate events, the standard is performed by God as stated in the Bible.  


Let not your heart be troubled.  Believe in that which God says.

 

Didn't we have seedtime and harvest over the past 12 months?  Didn't we have seasons of cold and heat?  Didn't we have day and night?   


But at the end of this world when the judgments of God come because of the wickedness of this world and the apostate churches who cast aside scripture, then there will be a time when the sun will not shine, the moon will not give her light, the stars will fall from heaven and the power of heaven will be shaken and Jesus will gather HIS elect and take them to live in the new heaven and new earth which God has created for the children of God.  

But until then, we will have seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, day and night.
 
πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯
 
πŸ’₯  James 1:17
 
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with WHOM is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

Is God going to give us that good thing and then take it away from us?  

Live in peace.  Have faith in the Word of God.  Follow the Holy Spirit of God.  Believe the Holy Scriptures. 

The character of God is shown to us by the scriptures, such as the above scripture.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  James 1:25  

But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

Continue in prayer and thanksgiving!  Do the instructions given by the Word of God and continue to do them.  Talk to God.  Have faith in that which God says.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯  

πŸ’₯  Colossians 3:15  

And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.

Do you have peace in doing that which you are now doing?  It is very important to let the peace of God rule in our hearts.  Whatsoever is not of faith is sin.  Romans 14:23  But if something troubles you, stop and settle it with God.

Remember to thank God for that which HE has given you.  One of the great weapons of our warfare is thankfulness to God.  When we feel a little "down" if we begin to thank God for those things which are in our lives, the devil will flee from us.  In everything given us by God, give thanks!

Righteous indignation of the end times:

(Comments by Joan Boney) 

I believe we live in the end times now.  Wickedness increases on the earth and in the apostate churches and that signals the wrath of God that is to come upon this earth as judgment from God for that is not far away.

In the past years, I was furious over that which I was seeing in the churches.  Pastors were adding things to the Bible and telling their congregations things which were not in the Bible.

In one non-denominational church that I visited, the pastor said:  "Sarah and Haggar were 1/2 sisters."  When I got home, I searched the Bible and couldn't find that which Pastor taught.  I called Pastor and told him I was in his church service when he said this and I told him I could not find this in the Bible and I asked him, "Where this is in the Bible?"

Pastor replied:  "I can't remember where it is in the Bible."

I said, "It's very important to me, so would you look it up and tell your secretary where it is and have her call me and tell me?"

Pastor was very quiet for a few seconds and then he replied with great anger saying:  "Okay ... It's not in the Bible!"  

(That pastor lied to me, pretending he couldn't remember where it was in the Bible while he knew it wasn't in the Bible and he just made it up and spoke it to the congregation by his own will.)

All this is very evil and disturbed me greatly.

Pastor did not show any sorrow nor did Pastor repent over what he did.  How can this be?

πŸ’₯  I was looking for a church to attend so I visited another non-denominational church.

It was a Wednesday night.  About 200 people were in the congregation.  Pastor was teaching concerning the woman taken in adultery, John 8.

Pastor said:  "And when they brought this woman to Jesus, she was naked from the waist up." 

I was extremely shocked to hear this for I knew it was not in John 8 in the Bible.

The next morning, I called the Pastor and said:

"I was in your service last night when you spoke about the woman taken in adultery being naked from the waist up and I can't find that in the Bible.  Where does it say that in the Bible?"

The pastor paused and then said, "I really can't remember where that is in the Bible."

I said:  "Well it's really important for me to know, so would you look it up and have your secretary call me and tell me where it is in the Bible."

Pastor was dead silent.

Then the Pastor began yelling at me with great anger.  "All right," he said, "It's not in the Bible.  Where do you go to church."

I was shocked and devastated by what Pastor said.

There was no shame expressed by Pastor.  There was no sorrow or grief shown over that which he had done to the Bible and to his congregation.

How could I stand this?

Then God showed me:

These two pastors were antichrist in the churches and it was even ordained this would happen in churches in the last days before Jesus returns. 

II Thessalonians 2  (The apostle Paul says)

3 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;

4 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.

God said to me:  "The falling away are not people leaving the churches.  The falling away are the churches leaving the scriptures."

And God showed me these churches and their followers who cast aside Bible and set up their own thinking in the churches will be destroyed when Jesus returns:

2 Thessalonians 2

8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of HIS mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of HIS coming:

9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

God will send HIS Wrath upon these apostate churches in the plagues and woes of The Great Tribulation but even then they will not repent.

Revelation 9

20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:

21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.

After God showed me what was going on in these churches today, I lived in peace but never went to apostate churches again.

To be angry can destroy us in the end time.

We must come to understanding of the fact that these sins are going to happen and we will see them.  We just don't go in the paths of the wicked.  There are many scriptures in Proverbs which tell us to depart from the evil and don't go near the evil.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

 
Proverbs 8

1 Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?

2 She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths.

3 She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors.

4 Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man.

5 O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

6 Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of MY lips shall be right things.

7 For MY mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to MY lips.

8 All the words of MY mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.

(froward:  stubbornly unruly; perverse: turning away from truth)

9 They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

10 Receive MY instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.

11 For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

12 I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯


13 The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.

14 Counsel is MINE, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

15 By ME kings reign, and princes decree justice.

16 By ME princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth.

17 I love them that love ME; and those that seek ME early shall find ME.

18 Riches and honour are with ME; yea, durable riches and righteousness.

19 MY fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and MY revenue than choice silver.

20 I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:

21 That I may cause those that love ME to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures.
