  1. Hebrews 6 4It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit, 5who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age, 6if they fall away, to be brought back to repentance, becauseto their loss they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace. Its called betrayal. Jesus Christ desires loyalty. People who make bad decisions will not see the kingdom of Heaven. Betraying Jesus is a bad decision. That is y some people never have peace of mind even though they call themselves christians. They didn't take their salvation with fear and trembling. They assumed because of all the false prophets it was something they were entitled too and that their behavior, attitude, and actions didn't matter.
  2. Acts 9:4 NIV
  3. Now we have truly repent...is there a sorta repent....a kinda repent. So since he said he was sorry and felt remorse but forgot to say forgive me...he is hell bound. The letters in red say woe to the man that betrays me. He is hellbound because he betrayed Jesus Christ no matter how many tears he may have shed. There is a big difference from denying Jesus Christ and betraying Jesus Christ. Repentence is getting rid of sin in your life because you love and fear Jesus Christ. Most of you believe his is a big game of tag and say the sinners prayer and your saved game. The Loyalty to Jesus Christ is a lot more serious and holier than that. Everybody at one time in there life has denied Jesus Christ by their behavior, action, or attitude. But if you've gone to the enemy's camp and denounced him as Almighty God and turned to the enemy and glorified the enemy...your prayers are lost for eternity. That is y Jesus over and over warned and warned if after hearing this message of salvation and seeing the miracles...... you will perish if you don't believe I am who I say I am. Woe to mankind who glorify sin and betrayed him. The human mind cannot comprehend the pain and destruction that is coming on this earth because of sin and betraying Jesus Christ, King of King, Lord of Lords. As far as being false. It is false to you because you don't want to hear it. Bible is very clear on the consequences of sin and betraying Jesus Christ. It is not up for debate it will delivered and fulfilled as promised. Once sin runs it's course. Judgement will begin in the house of Jesus and across the world. People will eat every defiled word they said about Jesus. Then he will cut them to pieces never having to listen to them again. But you can't say he wasn't merciful and full of grace. Debates will be over about the Holy Word of Jesus Christ.
  4. Everybody wants to hear this...too bad it isn't true. 1 John 5:16 NIV If anyone sees his brother commit a sin that does not lead to death, he should pray and God will give him life. I refer to those whose sin does not lead to death. There is a sin that leads to death. I am not saying that he should pray about that. This passage wasn't written when Jesus was on the earth in bodily form. The enemy is cursed and this world is cursed because of the enemy. If you decide to go to the enemy's camp and blasphemy Jesus Christ, betray Jesus Christ. Woe to the man that betrays Jesus Christ. Many people even so called christians are betraying Jesus Christ. Most even know when they have done it.. Look at Judas, he even repented and he lost his mind and committed suicide. If you decide to follow the footsteps of Judas...there is no hope and you will reap what you sow. Satan has been a liar from the beginning blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is a very eternal consequence. Denying Jesus Christ is not good but betraying Jesus Christ is a terrible, unforgivable, decision.
  5. The sad thing is I know where my wife stands with Jesus Christ...and it is with his favor. And I see how she hurts my wife and daughter with this terrible behavior. She should be so proud of her daughter and grandchild with the light that shines out of them but she is unable to see it. She looks at her daughter as a failure and her daughter with a high school education has done more than most people with degrees. I think she still sees her daughter as 18 and irresponsible. I come to the conclusion many people/family/anybody do not like to see people happy if it isn't under their terms. In her eyes I guess it is a sin to have too much joy and fun. Oh well on earth or in the presence of Jesus she will shed some tears for her treatment of her daughter. I hope she apologies before her last breathe because my wife love her even with all her negative flaws.
  6. My mother-in-law is the same way and it drives my wife crazy. She is what we call a joy sucker. She is like a vampire that needs blood but she just needs joy and latches on to you and sucks the joy out of all situations. And she hates me because I'm always laughing and try to be joyful in all situations. When we have to have her in our presence we work around her. She told my wife she made her miserable. And all we do is cater to her when she is at our home. The reason they act like this is they quit dreaming. They have no drive. They basically live to eat, drink, and crap and suck the joy out of everyone. I've told Jesus to take me out of this world once I quit dreaming because I don't want to end up like that. I feel sorry for you if she lives under your house continually. She lives in her house, with her car. and my wife checks in on her daily. That is what she wants so let it be. She will live there until she leaves this world. Best for all parties and it isn't worth talking about unless you want arguements. As far as the anger...we tranform it over to laughter. For he/she who angers you controls you. And we are not going to be controlled by a joy sucker. Like I bought her a snuggy for Christmas.. ..because no matter what she is always cold. She was mad because her back was exposed. it is a blanket not a bathrobe. but it was funny because i heard about it all christmas weekend. She still attends church. Which is hilarious to me....I don't understand how she feels Jesus is waiting with open arms and eternal life...with such a negative, attitude, behavior, and actions... your not entitled to these negative attitudes, behaviors, and actions at any age or any time....she better repent before she leaves this world....Jesus was quite clear on being joyful always, praying continually and being thankful in all situations.....old people should be the most joyful people on earth...no excuses
  7. Acts 3:13 NIV
  8. Jesus Chris is the author of LIFE. satan comes to seek, kill, and destroy. Who are you glorifying by taking your life? If you've ever witnessed a loved one battle cancer...it is terrible..but you pray and hope...and do everything humanely possible to relieve their suffering and help them live the best possible quality of life..but suicide never ever enters the equation.....then you watch them praise the Lord Jesus until their last breath...that is a warrior of light because he knew a Child of God never ever gives up in this evil world no matter how much the enemy takes joy in watching Children of God suffer. Jesus doesn't hop thru hoops for anybody....sometimes your prayers don't get answered...sometimes life sucks.....but you fight until Jesus takes you home...remember Jesus allowed himself to be slaughtered like a lamb...for the sins of the world....so nothing should surprise you in this world.....but Jesus also served as an example that he can take you thru anything if you allow him...and you will come out stronger, and more courageous than ever...in this world and the next eternal world... don't ever let the enemy convince you that suicide is an option....he has been lying since the beginning and still spreading his lies... Love is sacrificing when your cup is already full....some days you feel like saying ....i'm sick of sacrificing...I want a break....and if you can hang on it will come....on God's time....not ours...just keep pressing forward...
  9. I looked up......Pacifist=opposition to war or violence to settle disputes....refusal to bear arms on moral or religious grounds.....An attitude and policy of non- resistence. Turn your cheek and give the enemy the benefit of doubt that you have no desire to resolve this issue with violence...and we always try to resolve issues in a peaceful manner....but remember the enemy comes to seek, kill, and destroy and many of these folks are holding hands with the enemy. So it is our responsiblity as men of Jesus Christ to be prepared and warn them...that love always protects...we will eliminate any threats to our loved ones......with no mercy...I don't know how one can be a pacifist, and a Child of Jesus...when Jesus will someday judge and make war... When it comes to evil and wickedness God doesn't have a problem with war....so as Children of God...y would we. I believe that is a big problem with church, they project themselves as a bunch of pacifists and won't stand for rightenous and they let the enemy destroy them physically and spiritually. It's sad and disappointing.
  10. Let's do some role playing....the situation A Muslim comes into your house....invited by you ..so you can relate to him about how you are peace loving and you both can serve gods in a worldly love and live in harmony...then he goes crazy and says for the great god allah.....somebody must die....if I understand you correctly...you would sacrifice your own life before taking someone else's.....so he sticks a gun to your head...pulls trigger...and he makes his sacrifice to allah. Then with you out of the picture he shoots one of your children and tells them all they will be shot if they don't worship allah. So now your gone and he slaps a scarf on your wifes head....tells her not to speak...whacks your other kids over the head and tells them they now serve allah...and they torture your children if they even say the name Jesus... So with pacifism behavior..and mentality...with your courage to let your enemy destroy you...you allowed your family to be put into a life of bondage and misery .... and you expect Jesus to reward you with good job done my faithful child.... In your love for the enemy you still need to be on guard. As protector of your family first of all be careful who you bring into your Sanctuary (home) second if your family is still alive you better use every bit of strength and fight you have to eliminate the enemy if he is threatening you For a season I had many visions of people being beheaded. Maybe it was the past or maybe it is the future...maybe it is happening now. But as long as I got a breath of air in my lungs....their is no way I'm allowing the enemy to volunteering take me out of the picture to destroy my family. And when I lay in front of Jesus I better have every bone, muscle, body part broken or damaged from doing everything humanly possible to protect my loved ones. I don't want him to ask me....is that all you got. Love is sacrificing even when your cup is full. Before your so quick to volunteer your life...make sure your loved ones are protected. The enemy would love to have you out of the picture. I don't own a gun...I have a few knifes...and I stop for squirrels in the road...because I don't want to kill anything....I thank Jesus everyday for super walmart...so I don't have to hunt...the only thing I like to shoot is a camera to take pictures of wild life...but I'm sure not a pacifist. Because if somebody tried to harm my family...a rage of protection would take over....and no guilt or shame would be associated with it...because that is my responsibilty to Jesus and my loved ones... I don't think you need to hate ones enemy to go to war with.....there is a difference between protecting and hate...I guess that is where we differ...
  11. If Jesus comes back during our lifetime....it is very simple...if your not standing in the clouds with him....it is not him. So all we have to do...is ...be on guard...be thankful...merciful and loving....be joyful always...shine for Jesus.....let your actions, behavior, attitude and thoughts be godly and righteous....and be ready..... For a Child of Jesus...dying is a blessed event....just like living should be a blessed event...cherish it all For a Child of Satan....dying is a defiled event...that lines up with the defiled life they chose for themselves... a waste of a soul Jesus was hated before his resurrection by the majority and he will be hated in the last days...especially when the true word of Jesus is resurrected and taught...appostasy will be man's love of darkness...their worldly love and glorification for satan and his dark ways.. Look at the way people stand with sin...and until Jesus destroys this world........ people will try to justify their sin...even now they are justifying sin using the Holy Word..
  12. A Child of Almighty Jesus Christ...has no desire for violence, hate, sin, war, or anything else associated with the dark side of man. A Child of Almighty God doesn't have problems being slapped...or persecuted .... because in this dark world the Holy Word says you will be. When Almighty Jesus blesses you will a wife and child/children he fully expects you to do anything humanely possible to protect them from the enemies of darkness. And men of Jesus should be standing in front of their families and providing a Godly safe environment till death due us part. And the women of Jesus should be right behind them...protecting their families in the battlefield of life.So even though we have no desire to engage physical, emotional, mentally, or spiritualy with the ways of darkess doesn't mean we don't have the ability to destroy them if they become a threat to our loved ones. The problem with this world is most want to hold hands with the enemy even though they are destroying families left and right. One must understand, Jesus has all authority in Heavens and on earth. Hell was created for Satan and his fallen fools and now for all mankind that decided they loved darkness. Jesus is in charge of Heaven and Hell. That is y he said don't fear anybody who can destroy the body....fear the one who can destroy your body and soul ...Jesus will determine who goes where. That is why Jesus is casting cowards into the lake of fire...you won't find any cowards in eternal life....people that won't battle for Jesus and their loved ones... Satan in the spiritual world is a peon. In this world he is glorified. The only purpose and reason Almighty Jesus us allows him around is to fulfull his word and too see who is worthy of eternal life. The gift of Eternal life isn't something like a big game of tag your saved because you said the name Jesus. It is a character study. Do you love Jesus and the ways of light. Are striving for life pleasing to Jesus Christ? Would you lay down your life for him and your family. Do you want to separate from darkness...or do you believe darkness will prevail and take your chances with Satan. These are questions every individual needs to ask oneself. Hell isn't a place where you visit and if you don't like it...I want out....it is eternal. The same goes for Heaven...and the new earth. It seems like a no brainer but darkness has a seducing power that men seem to draw to. It is to bad that it is all lies. Satan is the father of lies.
  13. You got to be kidding me, right? Well, there goes the the whole early church straight into hell. Huh? Huh? Press Forward that has to be one of the most provocative statements I have ever heard on these boards! A child of Jesus can be pretty much anything if the child is walking His walk, and please tell me where did Jesus EVER say that a pacifist was going to hell, or for that matter a coward? Huh? Revelation 21:8 NIV
  14. Exodus 15:3 NIV
  15. Revelation 13 7He was given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them. And he was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation. 8All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast
  16. Apostasy The answer comes a few scriptures down from Matthew 3:16 This is the verdict, Light(Jesus Christ) came into the world but man loved darkness. Many churches have welcomed darkness and sin with open arms. Nothing is evil or wicked in many churches. They have changed the grace of Jesus Christ into a license of immorality. The falling away occurs because man in church and out of church love darkness. Your either a Child of Light or Child of darkness...Child of Jesus or a Child of satan....and the only way to tell the difference is by what they glorify. Dusts off your feet and turn them over to Jesus. Most people I meet reject the truth online or offline. You still treat them with love, patience, kindness, slow to anger.........and let it go.....like the disciples told the Jews in Acts...some people don't consider themselves worthy of eternal life...let it be....hopefuly if it is Jesus's will and for the soul's sake...he will choose them and they will see the error of their ways....And repent get reborn and live a life pleasing and glorifying to him.
  17. Revelations 13 16He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, 17 Why would Jesus condemn someone forced to take the mark? Because the failed to take the time to know him and to take his word seriously. They couldn't comprehend the ways of the Lord because they thought there ways were right. The mark of Almighy God is spiritual and called the Holy Spirit. The mark of the beast will be something very defiled. Probably be like a brand, like they do cattle. It will be terrible times. It will be a true test for Children of God. Most will get the mark because their faith is weak. When someone is "forced" to do something, it means they are made to something against their will. You say those who are forced to take the mark will be condemned because they don't understand the ways of the Lord. If you yourself were forced to take the mark, against your will, would that mean you do not take His Word seriously? Think about it. you said no one will be forced to take the mark. the bible seems to differ. since we know some day a man is going to be very powerful...blasphemy Jesus Christ...and say he is Almighty God....and perform many powerful signs and miracles.......we have no excuse to worship him and allow him to slap a mark on us because we have been warned. i'm saying I believe in meeting Jesus in the clouds ...but not until we go thru the darkest days of mankind..if Jesus allowed himself to crucified...his disciples to be mocked and killed...I don't believe I've met anybody on this earth worthy enough to escape some hard times of a final tribulation but the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ will take his faithful thru it and I really believe if we weren't going thru final tribulation there was no need to give us the warnings from Revelation. And Jesus always says to be ready and be prepared for life and death. The final tribulation will help separate the sheep from the goats and purify and sanctify the Church and Children of Almighty God. Jesus told us to be on guard so I will never put my family or myself to allow us to be forced to do anything. And I didn't say anything about those who are forced to take the mark will be condemned..... the Holy Word says it. I take peace and comfort that Jesus has it all under control and his Holy Word will be fulfilled. If you read a little further in Revelation...many will be beheaded and be killed for Jesus Christ. It is easy to Love Jesus when we are high on the mountain...but how will our love for Jesus be when we are in the valley of death. Jesus will get to see our true colors....our true hearts. Hopefully when those days come, if during our life time, we are prepared to live or die pleasing Our Lord Jesus Christ. The Holy Word is quite clear on the consequences of taking the mark....whether you say you are a Christian, Muslim, Jew, whatever one calls themselves.

  19. I didn't see the show but it sounds like she may decided her soul was worth more than a Miss America Title. It amazes me watching people forfeit their souls for fame in this world. One thing they can't say is...that Jesus wasn't kind to the ungrateful and wicked.
  20. Amen. All healing comes from Jesus. Electricity, I thank Jesus everyday for it. All good things come from Jesus. I don't want to go backwards...I want to press forward. I believe Jesus wants us to work smarter...not harder. I love being able to get things done so I can spend time with my family. I believe in working hard but also playing hard. I love my horses but when it comes to harvesting hay, a tractor can work circles around them. I love my horses but when it comes to travel ....trucks and automobiles work circles around them. But there is nothing like taking in the sights of this beautiful world from from the back of a horse. I love a simple life but it has nothing to do with working your fingers to the bone because you think it's pleasing to Jesus to reject modern technology. They are a perfect example of taking the Holy Word of Jesus Christ... come up with some bondage lifestyle of doctrine of man . I thought they were pretty entertaining when we visited the Amish country. For folks that are against the worldly evils, they sure like to get money for their products. Trying to get them to talk about the Lord Jesus is like pulling teeth from a horse. And don't even think about taking a picture or a video...and cherishing a memory...Satan must have invented the camera. And they didn't seem all that joyful...i guess they hold it inside. Like I said before...know your own people...know your own kind. How they live and what they do is between them and Almighty Jesus. I just hate to see people and especially children in such bondage. Give me a break...a picture I love roughing it in the woods....but if Jesus would open a door and provide me with a nice 4 horse living quarters gooseneck trailer...with all the modern electronic gadgets...and generator...I would leave the rough life in a second...and be thankful...sing praises of joy...and howl at the moon... people should be grateful when blessings like electricity and modern stuff comes your way...I know I am...and I don't want to go backwards................a picture....now I've seen everything
  21. Judaism teaches Jesus 1. Was not the begotten Son of God, 2. was not God incarnate 3. did not pay the penalty for our sins, 4. was not crucified, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. So does that makes judaism the most horrible demonic religion on the face of the earth too. I just don't see the double standard this site presents. Many argue well the muslims want to kill christians and jews....and the same arguement can apply to jews want to kill muslims and christians.....the weird thing is christians are on both lists...someday the muslims and jews may team up and kill the christians... wouldn't that be ironic... Jesus said they would hate him...
