Preach…
Psalms 40: [9] I have preached righteousness in the great
congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.
Ecclesiastes 1: [1] The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in
Jerusalem. [2] Vanity of vanities, saith
the Preacher, vanity of
vanities; all is vanity. [12] I the Preacher
was king over Israel in Jerusalem.
Ecclesiastes
12: [8] Vanity of vanities, saith
the preacher; all is vanity. [9] And moreover, because the
preacher was wise, he still
taught the people knowledge; yea, he gave good heed, and sought out, and set in
order many proverbs. [10] The
preacher sought to find out
acceptable words: and that which was written was upright, even words of truth.
Isaiah
61: [1] The Spirit of the Lord GOD is
upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto
the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to
the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
Jonah 3:
[2] Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach
unto it the preaching that I
bid thee.
Matthew 3: [1] In those days came John the
Baptist, preaching in the
wilderness of Judaea,
Matthew 4: [17]
From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the
kingdom of heaven is at hand. [23]
And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and
healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.

9: [35] And Jesus went about all the

And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. [27] What I tell you in darkness, that
speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the
housetops.
Matthew
11: [1] And it came to pass, when
Jesus had made an end of commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to
teach and to preach in their cities.
[5] The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers
are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the
gospel preached to them.
Matthew
12: [41] The men of Nineveh shall
rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they
repented at the preaching of
Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.
Matthew 24: [14] And this gospel of the kingdom
shall be preached in all the
world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
Matthew 26: [7] There came unto him a woman having
an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he
sat at meat. [8] But when his
disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this
waste? [9] For this ointment might
have been sold for much, and given to the poor.
[10] When Jesus understood it, he said unto them, Why trouble ye
the woman? For she hath wrought a good work upon me. [11] For ye have the poor always with
you; but me ye have not always. [12]
For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my
burial. [13] Verily I say unto
you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be
told for a memorial of her.
Mark 1:
[4] John did baptize in the
wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of
sins. [7] And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier
than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and
unloose. [14] Now after that John
was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, [38] And he said unto
them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for
therefore came I forth. [39] And
he preached in their synagogues
throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils.

2: [2] And straightway many were
gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so

[3] And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he
sat at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of
spikenard very precious; and she brake the box, and poured it on his head. [4] And there were some that had
indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment
made? [5] For it might have been
sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor. And
they murmured against her. [6]
And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? She hath wrought a good work
on me. [7] For ye have the poor
with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good: but me ye have not
always. [8] She hath done what
she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying. [9] Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever
this gospel shall be preached throughout
the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial
of her.
Mark 16:
[15] And he said unto them,
Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. [20] And they went forth, and
preached everywhere, the Lord
working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor;

captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are
bruised, [19] To preach the acceptable year of the Lord. [43] And he said unto them, I must
preach the kingdom of God to other cities also: for therefore am I sent. [44] And he preached in the synagogues of Galilee.
Luke
7: [22] Then Jesus answering said
unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how
that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the
dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.

city and village, preaching and
showing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God: and the twelve were with him,

[2] And he sent them to
preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick. [6] And they departed, and went through

the kingdom of God.

preached in his name among all
nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

[20] And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:
Acts 4:
[1] And as they spoke unto the people, the priests, and the
captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them, [2] Being
grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead. [3] And they laid hands on them, and
put them in hold unto the next day: for it was now eventide. [4] Howbeit many of them which heard
the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.
Acts 5:
[42] And daily in the temple,
and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.
Acts
8: [4] Therefore they that were
scattered abroad went everywhere preaching the word. [5]
Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them. [12] But when they believed Philip
preaching the things concerning
the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men
and women. [25] And they, when
they had testified and preached the
word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans. [35] Then Philip opened his mouth, and
began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus. [40]
But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to
Caesarea.
Acts
9: [20] And straightway he
preached Christ in the
synagogues, that he is the Son of God. [27]

had preached boldly at
Damascus in the name of Jesus.
Acts
10: [36] The word which God sent
unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all :) [37] That word, I say, ye know, which
was published throughout all Judaea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism
which John preached; [42] And he commanded us to preach
unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be
the Judge of quick and dead.
Acts
11: [19] Now they which were
scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far
as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only. [20] And some of them were men of
Cyprus and Cyrene, which, when they were come to Antioch, spoke unto the
Grecians, preaching the Lord
Jesus.
Acts
13: [5] And when they were at
Salamis, they preached
the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John to their
minister. [24] When John had
first preached before his
coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel. [38] Be it known unto you therefore,
men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: [42] And when the Jews were gone out
of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next Sabbath.
Acts
14: [7] And there they preached the gospel. [15] And saying, Sirs, why do ye these
things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach21] And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught
many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and Antioch, [25]
And when they had preached
the word in Perga, they went down into Attalia: unto you
that ye should turn from these vanities unto the living God, which made heaven,
and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein:
Acts
15: [21] For Moses of old time
hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues
every Sabbath day. [35] Paul also
and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many
others also. [36] And some days
after Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brethren in every
city where we have preached
the word of the Lord, and see how they do.
Acts
16: [6] Now when they had gone
throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy
Ghost to preach the word in Asia, [10] And after he had seen the
vision, immediately we endeavored to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering
that the Lord had called us for to preach the gospel unto them.
Acts 17:
[3] Opening and alleging,
that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that
this Jesus, whom I preach unto you, is Christ. [13] But when the Jews of Thessalonica
had knowledge that the word of God was preached of Paul at Berea, they came thither also, and stirred up the
people. [18] Then certain
philosophers of the Epicureans, and of the Stoicks, encountered him. And some
said, What will this babbler say? Other some, He seemeth to be a setter forth
of strange gods: because he preached
unto them Jesus, and the resurrection.
Acts
19: [13] Then certain of the vagabond
Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the
name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.
Acts 20:
[7] And upon the first day of
the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the
morrow; and continued his speech until midnight. [9] And there sat in a window a
certain young man named Eutychus, being fallen into a deep sleep: and as Paul
was long preaching, he sunk
down with sleep, and fell down from the third loft, and was taken up dead. [25] And now, behold, I know that ye
all, among whom I have gone preaching
the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.
Acts
28: [31]
Preaching the kingdom of God,
and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence,
no man forbidding him.
Romans
1: [15] So, as much as in me is, I
am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.
Romans 10: [8]
But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart:
that is, the word of faith, which we preach; [14] How then shall
they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in
him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?
[15] And how shall they preach, except they be sent? As it
is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of
peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
Romans
15: [19] Through mighty signs and
wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and round
about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ. [20]
Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named,
lest I should build upon another man's foundation:
Romans
16: [25] Now to him that is of power
to establish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the
revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,
I Corinthians 1: [17]
For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with
wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. [18] For the preaching of the
cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the
power of God. [21] For after that
in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the
foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
I
Corinthians 1: [23] But
we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling block, and unto
the Greeks foolishness;
I Corinthians 2: [4] And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of
man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
I Corinthians 9: [14]
Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should
live of the gospel. [16] For
though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is
laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel! [18] What is my reward then? Verily
that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without
charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel. [27] But I keep under my body, and
bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a
castaway.
I
Corinthians 15: [1] Moreover,
brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received,
and wherein ye stand; [2] By
which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in
vain. [11] Therefore whether it
were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed. [12] Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say
some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead? [14] And if Christ be not risen, then
is our preaching vain, and
your faith is also vain.
II
Corinthians 1: [19] For
the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not
yea and nay, but in him was yea.
II Corinthians 2: [12] Furthermore, when I came to Troas
to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord,
II Corinthians 4: [5] For we preach not
ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus'
sake.
II Corinthians 10: [14]
For we stretch not ourselves beyond our measure, as though we reached not unto
you: for we are come as far as to you also in preaching the gospel of Christ: [16]
To preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in
another man's line of things made ready to our hand.
II
Corinthians 11: [4] For if he
that cometh preacheth another
Jesus, whom we have not preached,
or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel,
which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. [7] Have I committed an offence in
abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely?
Galatians
1: [8] But though we, or an angel from
heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have
preached unto you, let him
be accursed. [9] As we said
before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you
than that ye have received, let him be accursed. [11] But I certify you,
brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. [16]
To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen;
immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood: [23] But they had heard only, That he
which persecuted us in times past now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed.
Galatians
2: [2] And I went up by revelation,
and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the
Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I
should run, or had run, in vain.
Galatians 3: [8]
And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith,
preached before the gospel unto
Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
Galatians
4: [13] Ye know how through
infirmity of the flesh I preached
the gospel unto you at the first.
Ephesians 2: [17]
And came and preached peace
to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.
Ephesians
3: [8] Unto me, who am less than the
least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the
Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;
Philippians 1: [15]
Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good
will: [16] The one preach
Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: [18] What then? Notwithstanding, every
way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein
do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.
Colossians
1: [23] If ye continue in the
faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel,
which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is
under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister; [28] Whom we preach,
warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present
every man perfect in Christ Jesus:
I
Thessalonians 2: [9] For ye
remember, brethren, our labor and travail: for laboring night and day, because
we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you
the gospel of God.
I
Timothy 2: [7]
Whereunto I am ordained a preacher,
and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not ;) a teacher of the
Gentiles in faith and verity.
I Timothy 3: [16] And without controversy great is
the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the
Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto
the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
II Timothy 1: [11] Whereunto I am appointed a
preacher, and an apostle, and a
teacher of the Gentiles.
II Timothy 4: [1] I charge thee therefore before
God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his
appearing and his kingdom; [2] Preach the word; be instant in season,
out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and
doctrine. [3] For the time will
come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall
they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; [4] And they
shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto
fables. [5] But watch thou in all
things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of
thy ministry. [17]
Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the
preaching might be fully known,
and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of
the lion.
Titus 1:
[3] But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me
according to the commandment of God our Savior;
Hebrews 4: [2]
For unto us was the gospel preached,
as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not
being mixed with faith in them that heard it. [6] Seeing therefore it
remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:
I
Peter 1: [12] Unto whom it was
revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things,
which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy
Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into. [25] But the word of the Lord endureth
for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.
I
Peter 3: [19] By which also he went
and preached unto the spirits
in prison;
I Peter 4: [6] For for this cause was the gospel
preached also to them that are
dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live
according to God in the spirit.
II Peter 2: [5] And spared not the old world, but
saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the
ungodly;
Revelation 14: [6] And I saw another angel fly in the
midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and
kindred, and tongue, and people, [7] Saying with a loud voice, Fear God,
and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him
that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
James 1
[1] James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus
Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
[2] My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;
[3] Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
[4] But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and
entire, wanting nothing.
[5] If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all
men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
[6] But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is
like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
[7] For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the
Lord.
[8] A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
[9] Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted:
[10] But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the
grass he shall pass away.
[11] For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it
withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the
fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.
[12] Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried,
he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that
love him.
[13] Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God
cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:
[14] But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust,
and enticed.
[15] Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when
it is finished, bringeth forth death.
[16] Do not err, my beloved brethren.
[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.
[18] Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should
be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
[19] Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear,
slow to speak, slow to wrath:
[20] For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
[21] Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness,
and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
[22] But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your
own selves.
[23] For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto
a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
[24] For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth
what manner of man he was.
[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.
[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.
James 2
[1] My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus
Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons.
[2] For if there come unto your assembly a man with a gold ring, in
goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment;
[3] And ye have respect to him that weareth the gay clothing, and say
unto him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there,
or sit here under my footstool:
[4] Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil
thoughts?
[5] Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this
world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them
that love him?
[6] But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw
you before the judgment seats?
[7] Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called?
[8] If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt
love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:
[9] But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced
of the law as transgressors.
[10] For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one
point, he is guilty of all.
[11] For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill.
Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a
transgressor of the law.
[12] So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of
liberty.
[13] For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no
mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.
[14] What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith,
and have not works? can faith save him?
[15] If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,
[16] And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and
filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the
body; what doth it profit?
[17] Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.
[18] Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith
without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
[19] Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils
also believe, and tremble.
[20] But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
[21] Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered
Isaac his son upon the altar?
[22] Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith
made perfect?
[23] And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God,
and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of
God.
[24] Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith
only.
[25] Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she
had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way?
[26] For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works
is dead also.
James 3
[1] My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we
shall receive the greater condemnation.
[2] For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the
same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body.
[3] Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, that they may obey us;
and we turn about their whole body.
[4] Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven
of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm,
whithersoever the governor listeth.
[5] Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things.
Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!
[6] And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue
among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the
course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.
[7] For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of
things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind:
[8] But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly
poison.
[9] Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men,
which are made after the similitude of God.
[10] Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren,
these things ought not so to be.
[11] Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and
bitter?
[12] Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine,
figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh.
[13] Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew
out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.
[14] But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not,
and lie not against the truth.
[15] This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual,
devilish.
[16] For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil
work.
[17] But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable,
gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without
partiality, and without hypocrisy.
[18] And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make
peace.
James 4
[1] From whence come wars and fightings among you?
come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?
[2] Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot
obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.
[3] Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume
it upon your lusts.
[4] Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of
the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world
is the enemy of God.
[5] Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that
dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?
[6] But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the
proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.
[7] Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will
flee from you.
[8] Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands,
ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.
[9] Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to
mourning, and your joy to heaviness.
[10] Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you
up.
[11] Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of
his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the
law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.
[12] There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art
thou that judgest another?
[13] Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a
city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:
[14] Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your
life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth
away.
[15] For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do
this, or that.
[16] But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil.
[17] Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him
it is sin.
James 5
[1] Go to now, ye rich men,
weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
[2] Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
[3] Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a
witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped
treasure together for the last days.
[4] Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields,
which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have
reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.
[5] Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have
nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.
[6] Ye have condemned and killed the just; and he doth not resist you.
[7] Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold,
the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long
patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.
[8] Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord
draweth nigh.
[9] Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be condemned:
behold, the judge standeth before the door.
[10] Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the
Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience.
[11] Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the
patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very
pitiful, and of tender mercy.
[12] But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven,
neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your yea be yea; and
your nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation.
[13] Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him
sing psalms.
[14] Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and
let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:
[15] And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall
raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.
[16] Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that
ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth
much.
[17] Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed
earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space
of three years and six months.
[18] And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth
brought forth her fruit.
[19] Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him;
[20] Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of
his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins. |

Luke
21: [25] And there shall be signs in the
sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations,
with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; [26] Men's hearts
failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on
the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. [27] And then shall
they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. [28]
And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your
heads; for your redemption draweth nigh. {Earthquakes, Volcanic Eruptions and Tsunamis.}

Greetings to Everyone: I’ve been studying the
Bible for 40 years and teaching/preaching for 30 years. In order to help other
individuals who are seeking Spiritual Knowledge and Truth, I have recently
created five Websites. They primarily deal with how God will use the earth, by
way of shifting the tectonic plates to produce earthquake and volcanic activity
to fulfill the Biblical description of The
Great Tribulation Period. I go into great detail towards providing
information and various links, by making an attempt to show how each phase of
the Old Testament and New Testament Scriptures give details to this End of the World time period. It will
actually be a transition of the Age of Grace, the past 2,000 years; into the
Millennial Reign of the Lord Jesus Christ. These geological events are presently
in the beginning stages and will accelerate within the next few years. Just as
God destroyed humanity with water during the Great Flood, this time; God will use earthquake and volcanic
activity to bring fire from beneath the earth, to literally burn humanity from its
surface. Very soon, all of the political corruption, social injustice,
immorality and religious hypocrisy will be brought to an end. The masses of
humanity and especially the political and religious systems of the world will
not be allowed to enter into the Millennial Reign; nor will those individuals
who follow the spirit of the Arab Antichrist, who will arise very soon in the
Middle East. This Arab Antichrist will lead an attack against Israel and then
form an Arab Empire of Ten Arab Countries. This will be the Ten Countries of
the Book of Daniel and the Ten Kings of the Book of Revelation. A massive
earthquake will occur in the Jordan River Valley to stop his army and this will
be the beginning of The Great
Tribulation Period. It will set in motion all of the tectonic plates of the
earth, producing earthquakes, tsunamis and volcanic eruptions. These events will
then increase for 3 ½ years, until the Lord Jesus Christ returns and begin His
Millennial Reign. I believe it's in our best interest to be informed of these
events and not be caught unaware. God Bless You in your spiritual search for
His will in your life.
These Ten Toes on the Feet of this image
represent the last worldly kingdom in the Middle East that will have direct influence upon Israel. It will consist of Ten
Arab Countries. It will be during the “days of these kings” in which God will
establish the Millennial Reign of the Lord Jesus Christ. This Arab
Empire/Kingdom will only last for 3 ½ years.
Daniel
2:
[31] Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image,
whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was
terrible. [32] This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his
arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, [33] His legs of
iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay. [34] Thou sawest
till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his
feet that were of iron and clay, and break them to pieces.
Daniel
2: [41] And whereas thou sawest the
feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be
divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron,
forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay. [42] And
as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom
shall be partly strong, and partly broken. [43] And
whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves
with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is
not mixed with clay. [44] And in the days of these
kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be
destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall
break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever. [45]
Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without
hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver,
and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass
hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.
Daniel
7:
[24a] And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise:
These Ten Kings are the same Ten Toes of
the image in the Book of Daniel. These Ten Arab Kings will give their authority
to the Arab Antichrist or the Islamic Beast of the Book of Revelation. This
Arab/Islamic Empire will last for 42 months or 3 ½ years. All of this will
start, when this Arab leader attacks Israel from Syria, with the help of Iran,
Iraq, Lebanon and the terrorists groups of Hamas, Hezbollah, along with the Palestinians
in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, including whatever other dozen or so
terrorist groups/factions exist in the surrounding area.
This Arab Antichrist/Beast will be
empowered by the Dragon/Devil/Satan. His followers will worship him. Those
who do not worship him will be killed. This killing will be widespread,
especially in the Islamic countries. The other Beast is the False Prophet or
Pope of the Roman Catholic Religious System in Rome, Italy. He will also be
given great power by the Devil, to show signs, in order to deceive countless
billions of people, in worshiping this Arab Antichrist. The Arab Antichrist,
the False Prophet and those individuals who worship the Beast, will have their
names blotted out of the Book of Life before the foundations of the world,
because God knows who they were, even before they were born. They will all be
cast into the eternal lake of fire.
Revelation
13: [1] And I stood upon the sand of the
sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and
upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. [2]
And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the
feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him
his power, and his seat, and great authority. [3] And I saw one of his
heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the
world wondered after the beast. [4] And they worshipped the dragon which
gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like
unto the beast? Who is able to make war with him? [5] And there was
given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and
power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. [6]
And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and
his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. [7] And it was given unto
him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him
over all kindred’s, and tongues, and nations. [8] And all that dwell upon the earth
shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb
slain from the foundation of the world. [9] If any man have an
ear, let him hear. [10] He that leadeth into captivity shall go into
captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here
is the patience and the faith of the saints. [11] And I beheld another
beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spoke
as a dragon. [12] And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast
before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the
first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. [13] And he doeth great
wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight
of men, [14] And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of
those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to
them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast,
which had the wound by a sword, and did live. [15] And he had power to give life
unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and
cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be
killed. [16] And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and
poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their
foreheads: [17] And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the
mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. [18] Here is
wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it
is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
All of the followers who worship the
Arab Antichrist will be tormented in the eternal lake of fire forever and
forever.
Revelation
14: [9] And the third angel followed them,
saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image,
and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, [10] The
same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without
mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and
brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of
the Lamb: [11] And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up forever
and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his
image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
After the spiritually saved of the earth
have been removed from the earth at the sounding of the seventh trumpet, the
seven vials of the Wrath of God will begin and last for 45 days. It will be
plagues of wrath primarily designed for the followers of the Arab Antichrist,
the False Prophet and the spiritually lost of humanity whose souls exist in a
state of blasphemy against God. Toward the very end of this 45 day period, the
Arab Antichrist will gather his Islamic army to finally make an attempt to
destroy the people in Israel in the Negev wilderness. As he marches southward,
the greatest earthquake in the history of humanity will occur in the Jordan
River Valley and open up the valley into a massive crack, which will be filled
with lava. The heat blast and lava will kill most of the army and Israel will
be saved by the power of God. The earthquake will set up a chain reaction of
worldwide earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. All the cities of the world will
be destroyed by global earthquake activity and volcanic eruptions.
Revelation
16: [1] And I heard a great voice out of
the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of
the wrath of God upon the earth. [2] And the first went, and poured
out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon
the men which had the mark of the beast and upon them which worshipped his
image. [3] And the second angel poured out his vial upon the
sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in
the sea. [4] And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and
fountains of waters; and they became blood. [5] And I heard the angel of
the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shall be,
because thou hast judged thus. [6] For they have shed the blood of
saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are
worthy. [7] And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God
Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments. [8] And the fourth angel
poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men
with fire. [9] And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the
name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give
him glory. [10] And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon
the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed
their tongues for pain, [11] And blasphemed the God of heaven
because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds. [12]
And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the
water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be
prepared. [13] And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs
come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out
of the mouth of the false prophet. [14]
For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the
kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that
great day of God Almighty. [15]
Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his
garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. [16] And he gathered them together into a place called in the
Hebrew tongue Armageddon. [17] And the seventh angel poured out
his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of
heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. [18] And there were voices,
and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not
since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. [19]And
the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations
fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the
cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. [20] And every
island fled away, and the mountains were not found. [21] And there fell
upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent:
and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague
thereof was exceeding great.
The Roman Catholic Religious System of
Rome, Italy is the: Great Whore… It is: MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS
AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. It will be accepted by Muslims in the Islamic
countries for several years, but towards the end of this 3 ½ year time period,
the Muslims will kill some of the Catholic people and burn their buildings
throughout the Ten Islamic countries under control of the Arab Antichrist/Beast
of Revelation.
Revelation
17: [1] And there came one of the seven
angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come
hither; I will show unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon
many waters: [2] With whom the kings of the earth have committed
fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the
wine of her fornication. [3] So he carried me away in the spirit into
the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet colored beast, full of
names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. [4] And the woman
was arrayed in purple and scarlet color, and decked with gold and precious
stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness
of her fornication: [5] And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY,
BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
[6] And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with
the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great
admiration. [7] And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel?I
will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her,
which hath the seven heads and ten horns. [8] The beast that
thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go
into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were
not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they
behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. [9] And here is the
mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman
sitteth. [10] And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is,
and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short
space. [11] And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth,
and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. [12] And the ten horns which thou
sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power
as kings one hour with the beast. [13] These have one mind, and
shall give their power and strength unto the beast. [14] These shall
make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of
lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen,
and faithful. [15] And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest,
where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
[16] And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate
the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and
burn her with fire. [17] For God hath put in their hearts to fulfill
his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words
of God shall be fulfilled. [18] And the woman which thou sawest is that
great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
The Roman Catholic Religious System in
Rome, Italy will be completely destroyed by volcanic fire and the remains of
the city will be submersed below sea level by the waters of the Tiber River and
the in rushing waters of the Mediterranean Sea. The Roman Catholic Religious
System of Rome, Italy will judged be God Almighty and the judgment will be with
the volcanic fire of hell.
Revelation 18: [1] And after these things I saw
another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was
lightened with his glory. [2] And he cried mightily with a strong voice,
saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the
habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every
unclean and hateful bird. [3] For all nations have drunk of the wine of
the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed
fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the
abundance of her delicacies. [4] And I heard another voice from heaven,
saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and
that ye receive not of her plagues. [5] For her sins have
reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. [6] Reward
her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her
works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double. [7] How much
she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow
give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall
see no sorrow. [8] Therefore shall her plagues come in one day,
death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for
strong is the Lord God who judgeth her. [9] And the kings of the
earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall
bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning, [10]
Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great
city Babylon, that mighty city! For in one hour is thy judgment come.
[11] And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for
no man buyeth their merchandise any more: [12] The merchandise of gold,
and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and
silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and
all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble, [13]
And cinnamon, and odors, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil,
and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and
slaves, and souls of men. [14] And the fruits that thy soul lusted after
are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are
departed from thee, and thou shall find them no more at all. [15] The
merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand
afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing, [16]
And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and
purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls! [17]
For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and
all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar
off, [18] And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What
city is like unto this great city! [19] And they cast dust on their
heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city,
wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her
costliness! For in one hour is she made desolate. [20] Rejoice over her,
thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on
her. [21] And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it
into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be
thrown down, and shall be found no more at all. [22] And the
voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard
no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be, shall be
found any more in thee; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at
all in thee; [23] And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all
in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no
more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by
thy sorceries were all nations deceived. [24] And in her was found the
blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.
Revelation 19: [1] And after these things I
heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and
glory, and honor, and power, unto the Lord our God: [2] For
true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which
did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his
servants at her hand. [3] And again they said, Alleluia. And her
smoke rose up forever and ever.
The Arab/Islamic Antichrist/Beast and
the False Prophet/Pope will be cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
This will be their eternal punishment.
Revelation
19: [19] And I saw the beast, and the
kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him
that sat on the horse, and against his army. [20] And the beast was taken, and with
him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived
them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his
image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. [21]
And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which
sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their
flesh.
I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
II Timothy 4:1-4. King James Version.
It is in your
best interest to seek Spiritual Truth while you still have time. You only live on
this earth for a little while and then your soul will enter the portal of
eternity. Make the best
use of your time. Seek God as much as you can.
Hebrews
9: [27] And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the
judgment.
Romans
14: [10b] For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
II
Corinthians 5: [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.
Revelation
20: [10] And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of
fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be
tormented day and night for ever and ever. [11]
And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face
the
earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. [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. [13]
And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell
delivered up
the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to
their
works. [14]
And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second
death. [15]
And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into
the lake
of fire.

Are You In A True Local New Testament Church???
John, to the seven called out assemblies,
which are in Asia; Grace and acceptable favor be unto you and peace
with prosperity, with quietness and rest, from Him who is, the One
Being and the One who was and the One who is coming to appear and
accompany; and from the seven Spirits, who are before and in the
presence of the stately seat of His throne of
power. Even from Jesus Christ, the Messiah, who is the
faithful and trustworthy Witness, the Firstborn; first begotten out of
the dead; and the first Ruler and Prince of the kings of the
earth. To Him who loved us and exclusively washed us from
our sins in His own blood; and has made us kings of a kingdom realm and
priests unto Deity; the very exceeding great God, even His Father.
To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever; to the perpetual
Messianic age, to the ages of the ages. Amen. Revelation 1:4-6.
Lo,
See and Behold! He is coming with the clouds and every
eye will see Him; and they also who pierced Him and all the tribes
and races of people of the earth will mourn, wail and
beat the breast in grief because of Him. Even so; Yes and truly;
Amen; So let it be; It is trustworthy and firm. I am Alpha,
first and Omega, last, the Beginning and Ending says the Lord, the One
in Supreme Authority, the Controller and Master. The One Being who
is and the One Being who was and the One Being who is to come;
I-the One Being; the One Almighty, All-Ruling, Absolute and Universal
Sovereign; the Omnipotent. Revelation 1:7-8.
And
I turned to see the voice which was speaking with me.
And having turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks-lamp stands.
And in the midst of the seven candlesticks-lamp stands, One like the
Son of Man arrayed and having been clothed with a garment reaching the
ankles of the feet and a belt fastened about the breast with a golden
belt or pocket. The hairs of His head were white like
white wool and as snow; and His eyes and vision were as a blazing flame
of lightning fire. And His feet like in the manner of fine brass
burnished copper metal, as if they were thoroughly burned and were
ignited by a fiery glowing fire in a furnace; and His voice and tone of
purpose of address, as the sound of many and abundant waters. And
He had in His right hand, seven stars; and out of His mouth went a
sharp and swift two-edged sword and His countenance was as the sun of
light, shines to lighten in its strength, force and power. Revelation 1:12-16.
And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. And He placed His
right hand upon me, Saying unto me; Do not fear, I am the First,
foremost in time, order, place of importance, and the Last,
farthest, final, latter end, and the ends of the uttermost. I, the One,
am the Living One and I became dead and Lo, See, Behold!
I Exist; I am alive for evermore, to the ages of the ages. Amen.
So be it. And I have the keys to the lock of Hades, the
unseen and of death. Write the things which you have seen which are and
the things which are about to appear afterwards and hereafter. The
mystery and secret of the seven stars which you saw on my
right hand and the seven golden candlesticks-lamp stands. The
seven stars are the angels of the seven called out assemblies and the seven candlesticks-lamp stands which you saw are the seven called out assemblies. Revelation 1:17-20.
A Message to the Called Out (Local) New Testament Assemblies
These Scriptures are written to the "True Called Out Local"
groups of people who have been Saved by the grace of God and have been
Baptized by immersion and assemble together in a local place and make
an attempt to follow the teachings of the New Testament.
These Promises of Future Rewards are for: those who are truly spiritually "saved" individuals who make an "effort to grow-up spiritually" within the "Called Out Local New Testament Assemblies" from among the masses of the Spiritually Saved People scattered throughout the world.
These rewards are not for the so-called "paper church members." That is, just because your name is on a "church roll" and just because you "play church" does not entitle you to these spiritual rewards in the next life...

What is a "True Assembly or Church" according to the New Testament Word of God!!!
Acts 2: [42] And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. [46]
And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking
bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and
singleness of heart, [47] Praising God, and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.
Continued steadfastly: to
be earnest towards; to persevere; be constantly diligent; to attend
with persistent diligence in all the exercises; to adhere closely to;
to have a compulsive preoccupation with a fixed idea.
The following seven links will help to understand this expanded translation:
Only a "Local Assembled" group of people, who continue steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine (the Truthful Teachings, the Lord gave to the apostles and the Truthful Teachings the apostles continued to Teach), (salvation by grace, baptism by immersion, security of the believer, the assembly is a local visible body of those saved and baptized individuals, as well as the many other Truthful Teachings throughout the New Testament), and fellowship, and in breading of bread (correct observance of the Lord's Supper for only those assembled members of that particular assembly), and in prayers, can be considered a "True Assembly or Church."

will give power, authority and privilege over the races of people.
And the one will rule, supervise and tend as a shepherd, them with

The Throne in Heaven
After these things I looked,
and considered this, behold, a door having been opened in the sky of
heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet
speaking with me; saying, Come up here, and I will show to you things
what must be necessary to occur after these things. And immediately I
came to be in the spirit: and, Lo, See, Behold! A throne was set in the
sky of heaven, and One who was sitting on the throne. And He who was
sitting to look upon was like in the appearance of a jasper and a
sardius stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in
appearance like to an emerald. And round about the throne were four and
twenty seats: and on the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting,
having been clothed in white robes of raiment; and they had on their
heads crowns of gold. And out of the throne preceded lightnings and
thunder and voices. And there were seven lamps, torches of fire burning
before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God. And before the
throne there was a sea of glass like to crystal. And in the midst of
the throne, and round about the throne, were four living creatures full
of eyes before and behind. And the first living creature was like a
lion, and the second living creature was like a calf, and the third
living creature had a face as a man, and the fourth living creature was
like a flying eagle. And the four living creatures had each of them six
wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not
day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, the One who
was, and the One who is, and the One who is coming! And when those
living creatures give glory and honor and thanks to Him, the One who
sits on the throne, to the One living forever and ever, to the ages of
the ages. The four and twenty elders will fall down before Him, the One
who sits on the throne, and worship Him, the One who lives forever and
ever, to the ages of the ages and they will cast their crowns before
the throne, saying, You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor
and power. Because You have created all things, and on the account of
Your will, they exist and were created. Revelation 4:1-11.
And I saw in the right
hand of Him, the One who sits on the throne a Book of a Scroll of
Writing, within and on the backside, having been sealed with seven
seals. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a great loud voice,
Who is worthy to open the Book of a Scroll of Writing, and to loosen
the seals thereof? And no one in heaven, either on earth, neither
underneath the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look at it.
And I began to weep very much, because no one was found worthy to open
and to read the Book of a Scroll of Writing, neither to look at it. And
one of the elders says to me: Do not weep. Lo, See, Behold! The Lion of
the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome to open the Book of
a Scroll of Writing, and to lose the seven seals of it. And I saw, and,
Lo, See, Behold! In the midst of the throne and of the four
living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb having
been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven
Spirits of God having been sent forth into all the earth. And he came
and took the Book of a Scroll of Writing out of the right hand of Him
who sits upon the throne. And when He had taken the Book of a Scroll of
Writing, the four living creature and four and twenty elders fell down
before the Lamb, having every one of them a harp, and golden bowls full
of incenses, which are the prayers of saints. And they sang a new song,
saying, You are worthy to take the Book of a Scroll of Writing, and to
open the seals of it. Because you were slain, and You redeemed us to
God by Your blood out of every tribe, and language, and people, and
nation; And You have made us to our God kings and priests: and we will
reign on the earth. And I saw, and I heard the voice of many angels
round about the throne and the living creatures and the elders: and the
number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of
thousands; Saying with a great loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb having
been slain to receive the power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength,
and honor, and glory, and blessing. And every creature which is in
heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the
sea, and all that are in them. I heard saying, Blessing, and honor, and
glory, and power, to Him, the One sitting on the throne, and to the
Lamb forever and ever, to the ages of the ages. And the four living
creatures said, Amen. So be it. And the four and twenty elders fell
down and worshiped Him, the One living forever and ever, to the ages of
the ages. Revelation 5: 1-14.
The Marriage of the Lamb
And
a voice came out of the stately seat of the throne of power, saying:
Praise our Deity; the very exceeding great God, all the ones, His
slaves and bond servants and the ones who fear Him in awe and
give reverence, the ones both small and great. And I heard and gave
audience, as it were the voice of a great multitude and as
the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunders,
saying: Alleluia! Praise ye Jah! In Adoration, for the Lord, the One in
Supreme Authority; Deity; the very exceeding great God, the All-Ruling,
Absolute and Universal Sovereign, the Almighty Omnipotent has begun
to reign as King. Let us be glad, be cheerful with a calm happy
salutation and rejoice with joy and exceeding gladness; and give honor,
glory and praise-full worship to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb is
come and His wife has made ready and prepared herself. And to her was
granted to the intent in order that from the purpose of the results,
that she should be arrayed, clothed and dressed in fine
linen, clean, clear, pure and radiant, magnificent and sumptuous bright
white, for the fine linen is the equitable deeds, statue and decision
of the righteousness of the sacred, morally or religious blameless, the
consecrated saints. Revelation 19:5-8.
His Name is called: The Word of God
And
I saw heaven, the abode of the eternal God open and Lo, See and
Behold! A white horse and He, the One who sat upon it
was being called Faithful, Trustworthy and True: and in equity of
justifiable righteousness He judges and makes battle in warfare. His
eyes were a blazing flame of lightning fiery fire and on His head were
many, abundant crowns and diadems. And He had a name written of
authority and character which no one knows, except He Himself. And
He was clothed and appareled with a vesture in a robe of clothing
having been dipped and completely covered in blood. And His name,
authority and character is called, The Word, The Divine Expression of
Deity; the very exceeding great God. Revelation 19:11-13.
King of Kings and Lord of Lords
And
the armies or extension of an armament, which were in the sky of
heaven, the eternal abode of God, followed Him upon white horses,
clothed having been dressed in fine linen, white and pure, clear and
clean. And out of His mouth goes a sharp saber sword, so that with it,
He should smite and strike the nations as a race. And He will rule and
supervise, to tend as a shepherd, them with a rod, a staff of royalty,
made of iron. And He treads and tramples the winepress of the
passionate fierceness, indignation and wrath of justifiable punishment
of the All Ruling, Absolute and Universal Sovereign, Almighty,
Omnipotent Deity; the very exceeding great God. And He has on the robe
of His vesture, apparel, clothes and on His thigh, a name, authority
and character, having been written: Sovereign King of Sovereign
Kings and Lord, Supreme One in Authority, Controller and Master of
Lords, Supreme One in Authority, Controller and Master. Revelation 19:14-16.
The 1,000 Year Reign of the Lord Jesus Christ
And
I saw an angel descend from the sky of heaven, the eternal abode of
God, having the key of the lock of the depthless, infernal, abyss; the
bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. And he used strength to
seize and take hold on the dragon, that ancient, old serpent, which is
the Devil, a slanderer, even Satan,the Adversary and bound
him for a thousand years. And cast and threw him into the depthless,
infernal, abyss; the bottomless pit and closed, locked, shut him
up and set a mark of security and seal over him so that he should
not deceive the race of people any more until the thousand years
were finished. After these things, it is necessary for him to be let
loose a little season or for a space of time. And I saw a stately seat
of thrones and they sat upon them. And judgment was given to them; and
I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the
testimony and witness on the account of Jesus and on the account for
the Word of God; and who had not worshipped the beast; neither his
image of likeness; neither had received his mark or badge of servitude
upon their forehead or on their hand. And they lived and reigned with
Christ, the Anointed Messiah a thousand years. But the rest of the dead
lived not again, until the thousand years were completed and finished.
This is the first resurrection. Blessed and supremely fortunate is the
one who has a part in the first resurrection. On such the second
death has no power or privilege, over these; but they will be
priests of Deity; the very exceeding great God and of Christ, the
Anointed Messiah; and will reign and rule with Him for a thousand
years. Revelation 20:1-6.
After the 1,000 Years – Satan returns to the Earth
And
when the thousand years are ended, finished and expired; Satan,
the accuser and the Adversary, will be loosed out of his guarded
prison. And will go forth to roam to deceive, lead astray and
seduce the race of people from the truth, which are in the four
quarters of the land of the earth. Gog, the antichrist and Magog, an
antichristian party as a nation, to assemble and to gather them
together to a battle of warfare, the number of whom is as the sand of
the sea. And they went up on the broad plain of the land of
the earth and compassed, encircled and surrounded the camp and battle
array of the saints and the beloved city. And lightning fiery fire came
down from Deity; the very exceeding great God out of the sky of heaven
and devoured them. And the Devil, the slander that deceived and seduced
them was cast and thrown into the Lake of lightning fiery fire and
of sulfurous brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet, being
a religious imposter already are. And will be tormented and vexed
in pain day and night forever and ever, to the ages of the ages. Revelation 20:7-10.
The Great White Throne Judgment
And
I saw a great and mighty white stately seat and throne; and He, the
One who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled
away and was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and
great, stand before and in the presence of the One God. And the Books
of a Writing Scroll were opened. And another Book of a Writing Scroll
was opened, which is the Book of a Writing Scroll of Life. And
the dead were judged, condemned and punished out of those things which
were written in the Books of a Writing Scroll according to their works,
labor and act of deeds. And the sea gave up the dead who were in
it. And Death and Hades, the unseen place and state of departed souls,
delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, tried;
condemned and punished, every one according to their works, toil and
act of deeds. And Death and Hades, the unseen place of departed souls
were cast and thrown with intense violence into the Lake of lightning
fiery fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found
written in the Book of a Scroll of Writing was cast and thrown with
intense violence into the Lake of lightning fiery fire. Revelation 20:11-15.
The New Heaven and the New Earth
And
I saw a New Heaven in freshness and a New Earth in freshness, for the
first heaven and the first earth were passed away and perished. And the
sea did not exist any longer. And I, John, saw the holy city, New
Jerusalem in freshness, coming down from Deity; the very exceeding
great God, out of the sky of heaven prepared and made ready, in the
manner as a bride adorned, decorated and put in proper order for her
husband. And I heard an address of a great and mighty voice out of the
sky of heaven, the eternal abode of God, saying: Lo, See, Behold! The
tabernacle and habitation of Deity; the very exceeding great God is
with human beings. And He will dwell and reside as a symbol of
protection and communion with them and they will be His people and
Deity; the very exceeding great God Himself will be with them in
accompaniment and be their God. And He, the One God will wipe
away every tear from their eyes and there will be no more
death, neither sorrow, grief and mourning; nor an outcry of grief;
neither will there be any more pain of anguish, for the former
things are passed away and behind. And He who sat upon the stately
seat of the throne of power said: Lo, See, Behold! I am making all,
every, and the whole new in freshness. And He said to me:
Write, because these words and thoughts of reason are true,
trustworthy and faithful to believe. And He, the One said unto me,
It is done! I am the Alpha, the first and the Omega, the last and
finality; the Beginning and the End and uttermost. I will give to the
one who is thirsty of the fountain and source of the water of life
freely and gratuitously. The one who overcomes, conquers and
prevails with victory, will be an heir and obtain an inheritance of all
things and I will be that persons Deity; the very exceeding great God
and that one will be of My kinship. Revelation 21:1-7.
The Heavenly City – the Home of the Faithful
And
there came unto me, one of the seven angels who had the seven vials of
a broad shallow cup full of the seven plagues, stroke and calamities
and spoke with me, saying: Come here; I will show you the bride, the
wife of the Lamb. And he carried me away in the spirit to a great,
mighty and high, lofty mountain and showed me that great and mighty
city with walls, the Holy and Sacred Jerusalem descending out of the
origin of the sky of heaven, the eternal abode of God, from Deity; the
very exceeding great God. Having the glory, splendor and dignity
of Deity; the very exceeding great God and its brilliant
illuminating light was similar and in like manner to a stone most
precious and costly, even like the manner of a jasper gem stone,
resembling a clear ice crystal. And had a great high wall and
had twelve gateways and at the gateways, twelve angels and names of
authority and character written and inscribed upon them, which are the
names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel. On the east three
gateways: on the north three gateways: on the south three gateways: and
on the west three gateways. And the wall of the walled-city had twelve
foundations and substructures; and on them, the names of the
twelve apostles of the Lamb. And
he who spoke with me had a golden reed to measure the walled
city and the gateways thereof and the wall thereof. And the city laid
foursquare, four cornered and the length is as large as the width. And
he measured the walled city with the reed, twelve thousand
furlongs/stadia. The length and the width and the height of it are
equal. And he measured the wall thereof an hundred and forty and four
cubits according to the measure of a human being, that is, of the
angel. And the building and structure of the wall was of a jasper gem;
and the walled city was of clean, clear and pure gold, like the similar
manner of clean, clear, pure transparent glass. And the foundation
and substructure of the walled city were adorned and garnished in
proper order with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation and substructure was a jasper gem of transparent multicolor light; the second, a sapphire of blue, violet; the third, a greenish copper-like chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald, green gem; the fifth, a red sardonyx, the onyx stone; the sixth, an orange-red sardius gem; the seventh, a chrysolite, a golden-yellow gem; the eighth, a multicolor beryl of green, blue, yellow and red; the ninth, a topaz of, yellow, gray and reddish orange; the tenth, a chrysoprasus, a greenish golden-yellow gem; the eleventh, a hyacinth or jacinth, a deep blue gem, the zircon; the twelfth, the purple amethyst.
And the twelve gateways are twelve pearls, every several local
gateway was of one pearl. And the wide open street of the walled city
was clean, clear pure gold, as it was transparent glass. And I did
not see a temple or shrine in it; for the Lord, the One in Supreme
Authority, the Controller and Master; Deity; the very exceeding great
God, the All Ruling, Absolute and Universal Sovereign; the Almighty
Omnipotent One and the Lamb are the temple or shrine of it. And the
walled city had no need of the light of the sun, neither of the moon to
lighten or shine in it, for the glory of Deity; the very exceeding
great God, did illuminate, brighten up and shed rays in it and the Lamb
is the light of it. And the race of people of them who are
saved will live and walk in the light and illumination of it. And
the kings of the land of the earth will bring their glory and
worshipful praise and honor, with precious value into it. And the
gateway of it will by no means be shut or closed at all by
day, for there will no night there, not ever. And they will
bring glory and worshipful praise and the honor, with precious value of
the race of the people into it. And there will by no
means enter into it anything that is common, defiled, unclean or
unholy, neither whatsoever makes for an abomination or a detestable
idolatry or makes a falsehood of a lie; but only
those who having been written in the Lamb’s Book of the
Scroll of Writing of Life. Revelation 21:9-27.
The Throne of God
And
he showed me a clean, clear and pure, fresh river of water of life,
clear, bright and magnificent in appearance, as ice crystal, proceeding
out of the stately seat of the throne of power of Deity; the very
exceeding great God and of the Lamb. In the midst of the wide open
street of it and on both sides of the fresh river of water, there
was the Tree of substance of Life, which bare and produced
twelve manners of fruits and yielded its fruit every month. And
the sprouts and leaves of the tree of substance were for the medical
healing and attendance of the race of people of the nations. And
there will be no more curse. And the throne of power of
Deity; the very exceeding great God and of the Lamb will be in it
and His servants will serve and render religious homage to Him.
And they will see His face and appearance; and His name of
authority and character will be in their foreheads. And
there will be no night there and they will not
need candle or a portable light, neither the light of the
sunlight, because the Lord, the One in Supreme Authority, the
Controller and Master, the Deity; the very exceeding great God will
illuminate them with light to shed rays of brightness and
they will rule and reign forever and ever, to the ages of the
ages. Revelation 22:1-5.
Behold I Am Coming Quickly
And
he said unto me: These words and sayings are faithful, trustworthy and
true to believe. And the Lord, the One in Supreme Authority, the
Controller and Master, Deity; the very exceeding great God of the holy
and inspired, set apart prophets, sent His angel to show to His
servants the things which must be needful and shortly, in a brief
swift space of time be done and come into being. Lo, See, Behold!
I am coming quickly, swiftly, without delay, by a sudden surprise.
Blessed and supremely fortunate is the one who keeps and maintains
the words and sayings of the prophecy of scriptural prediction of this
Book and Scroll of Writing. And I, John, saw these things and gave
audience. And when I heard, and saw; I fell down to adore and worship
before the feet of the angel which did show me these things. Then he
said unto me: Take heed, you do not to it, for I am your fellow
servant and minister of the same Master and of your brethren, the
prophets, who were inspired speakers and of them which keep and
maintain the sayings and reason of thoughts of this Book of a Scroll of
Writing: adore, do reverence and worship Deity; the very exceeding
great God. And he said unto me: Do not seal in secret,
the sayings of reason of the prophecy and scriptural prediction of this
Book of a Scroll of Writing; for the time or occasion and opportunity
is at hand and near in time. The one who is actively morally
unjust, let the one be actively morally unjust still further; and the
one who is morally dirty and filthy, let the one be morally dirty
and filthy still further; and the one who is of equitable
character of righteousness, let the one be of equitable character of
righteousness still further; and the one who is morally and
religiously sacred and holy, let the one be morally and religiously
sacred and holy still further. And Lo, See,
Behold! I appear and am coming suddenly by surprise, quickly,
swiftly, without delay and My reward is with Me to give away to
everyone in the manner and according as the one's work, toil, acts and
deeds shall be lived of one’s personal self. I, the One am
Alpha, the First and the Beginning and Foremost and the Omega,
the End of the uttermost of place or time, the First power and the
Last continual ending. Blessed, supremely blessed and fortunate are
those who do His commandments, in order that they may have the
authority, the right and privilege to the substance of the Tree of Life
and may even so arise to enter through the gateway into the walled
city. For outside and without the doors, away and forth, are the dogs
(the morally impure, backsliders, false teachers, and heretics), and
the drug users, sorcerers, and the
fornicators, male prostitutes, whoremongers and the murderers
and whosoever, everyone, all who have an affection of love and
practices of a lie and falsehood. Revelation 22:6-15.
And the Spirit and the Bride say, Come
I Jesus have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the called out assemblies.
I am the root and the offspring of the Israelite King David and the
bright radiant early morning Star of the dawn. And the Spirit and the
bride say, Come to accompany! And let the one who hears with an
audience say, Come to accompany! And let the one who is thirsty
for, come to accompany. And whosoever delights in let the one take
to accompany of the water of life freely, gratuitously. For I testify
as to be a witness to everyone who hears to give audience to the
words and reasoning of thoughts of the prophecy and prediction of this
Scroll of Writing. If anyone adds or impose as a relation of
distribution to these things; Deity; the very exceeding great
God, will add unto that one, the plagues, stroke and
calamities having been written in this Scroll of Writing. And
if anyone takes away from the words and reason of thoughts of this
Scroll of Writing of this prophecy and prediction, Deity; the very
exceeding great God will take away that one’s part from
the Scroll of Writing of Life, and out of the sacred Holy
City of walls and from the things having been written in this
Scroll of Writing. He, the One who testifies, is a witness of
these things, says, Surely, Yes. I appear and am coming suddenly by surprise, swiftly, quickly and without delay.
Amen, even so, truth; Yes. Even so, come and accompany, Lord
Jesus. The grace and acceptable favor of our Lord Jesus Christ be with
you all. Amen. Revelation 22:16-21.
As you can see from this study, individuals who have been spiritually saved by the grace of God, then, have been baptized properly and continue in the correct teachings of the New Testament within the called out local assemblies and make an effort to serve and worship God the Father, will be chosen by Jesus Christ as His Bride and their eternal home will be inside the Heavenly City.
Individuals who are spiritually saved by the grace of God, but do not go any further in their spiritual walk of life, will live in the New Heaven, on the New Earth, but not inside the Heavenly City...

A
Personal Note From Myself
Concerning: Religious
Leaders
******************************
Monday, November 16, 2009
These are my personal feelings, being
posted for the first time, since I started this Website.
It is something I really feel
compelled to add to this page.
This past Sunday night, knowing I was
going to be off work Monday, I stayed up late, watching some religious
programs, hopefully, trying to find some Spiritual nourishment. Well,
guess what I saw??? I'm going to list them:
1. I
saw people, claiming to be religious leaders, asking for money, money
and more money. I felt like they were absolute thieves... I felt they
were robbing people of their basis needs of life and it is wrong...
2. I
saw people, claiming to be religious leaders, teaching a false way or
no way of Salvation. They are stealing the way of Eternal Salvation
from the people and it is wrong...
3. I
saw people, claiming to be religious leaders, teaching a false way of
the Christian life. They are cheating people out of the Spiritual Joy
and Peace they can have in this life and it is wrong...
4. I
saw people, claiming to be religious leaders, teaching a false path of
the religious Christian life whereby they may have an inheritance in
the Kingdom of God, the Eternal City and it is wrong...
I hope you consider this
Website worth your time!!!
#1. Church Member:
Are you getting your monies worth from your
Pastor/Preacher/Priest/Rabbi/Spiritual Leader?
#2.
Pastor/Preacher/Priest/Rabbi/Spiritual Leader: Are you giving
the people their monies worth?
I'm talking about what's
important...the Spiritual aspect of it all!!!
It's Not About The Money...
Because the Money will Perish with
the Earth.
Your Soul Lives Forever and You Need
The Spiritual
Word of God Presented to You
From Your
Pastor/Preacher/Priest/Rabbi/Spiritual
Leader!!!
Dear Visitor: Are
you getting the "Spiritual Word of God"
from your
Pastor/Preacher/Priest/Rabbi/Spiritual
Leader???
If not, Why not???
And Again I Say
If not, Why not????
Why doesn't the person teach you the
Truth???
What do you think a
Pastor/Preacher/Priest/Rabbi/Spiritual
Leader
is suppose to teach you???
I will tell you, plain and simple...
The Word Of God...
Any Religious Leader
who does not proclaim the
Word of God to the
people, is not worthy of the calling by God.
And that person will answer directly
to Almighty God for how they
responded to the calling or if they
attempted to please the people.
And you, as an individual will answer
to Almighty God
for not making an effort to seek the
Truth.
I realize, you may think I'm a very
cruel, hard and mean person
for being so direct. In reality, I'm
just the opposite.
Because of the Love of God within my
soul,
I am actually concern for other
people.
Please try to understand.
Our life on this earth only lasts for
a few moments, then we pass away into the next life.
Make the most of your life, towards
Spiritual Growth, while you still have the time.
You only get to live once in this
Earth Life...
Why not get what you need to help you
in preparing you for
the next life??? The Eternal
Spiritual Life...
Is your Religious/Spiritual Leader
stealing the Word of God
from you???
Of Course, the person is!!!
If the person is not Teaching the Word
of God!!!
Or
Let Me Ask You A Question:
Are You Really Seeking to Understand
the Word of God???
**********************************************************
To-Every-Religious-Leader
Of Every Belief, Faith or
Thought...
You Will Appear
Before Jesus Christ at His Judgment Seat as a Saved Soul.
Or
You Will Appear At
The Great White Throne of God as a Lost Soul.
You Will Give An
Account of Your Life.
And
You Will Give An
Account of Your Preaching and/or Influence upon Other
People.
It will be in Your best
interest to make sure You are
preaching/teaching the Truth!!!
If You Do Not Know The Truth...Then
Spend Time Finding It...
Because, You will give an
account to Almighty God!!!

This is just a quick
thought... I believe when The Great Tribulation Period really begins to
happen with all the earthquake and volcanic activity, there are going
to be a lot of people "turn against" "religious
leaders"
who have failed to tell them the truth. Although I'm not a pastor, of a
local assembly/church, even though, I would like to be, in order to be
able to more directly teach people, I am an individual who is trying to
provide information about The Great Tribulation Period, to whomever may
be interested in it. If you are a "religious leader,"
you would be wise to get with the program and begin telling people the
truth. At least encourage them to learn about the possibility of having
to go through this time period, in the next few years.Yes, I said, in
the next few years!!! Because, there is so much evidence supporting the
fact that it will happen soon. That is the primary reason for this
Website. In addition, it's to provide Biblical Knowledge and Truth,
which the Audio Sermons can do, as they are a great treasure chest of
golden nuggets.
As a "religious
leader,"
I believe you will be mighty ashamed, when this Tribulation begins and
you have ignored the subject or else told people they were going to be
taken out of this life before it happens. This only applies to the
"Spiritually Saved By The Grace of God as Christian Believers." The
non-Christian believer (the spiritually dead/lost person) will of
course, either survive or die during this time period. Yes, even the
"Christians"
are going through most, at least a good 97%, that is, minus the 45 days
of the Wrath of God, of the full 1,290 days of The Great
Tribulation
Period.
If you are a "religious leader" don't be
surprised, if the people "turn against"
you, because you have lied to them. Yes, I mean lied, lied, lied... You
have been warned... if you are reading this. Although, I doubt very
many "religious leaders" will take any heed to such a
warning. Most "religious leaders" are
going
to tell the people just what they want to hear. After all,
otherwise, they would not still be in the position or at least the
majority, because the people themselves, would not put up with such
preaching. Well, it's the truth, isn't it??? What about you??? Do you
desire to know the Truth or will you settle for fables and lies???
Well, I'll tell you something... Very, very soon, you will find out
who's telling the Truth. At least I'm trying to tell you, the Truth...
What about your "Religious Leader"???
