THE GRACE OF GOD VERSES THE FALSE GRACE OF THE DEVIL

Ephesians 2:8–9 (NKJV)

8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.

Please notice that grace precedes faith! We receive the grace of the Lord Jesus by believing in faith. So when a “sinner” hears the voice of God by the preaching of the Word of God by the Spirit of God in a man/preacher/prophet the Holy Spirit convicts the sinner by grace by “pricking” the heart and by Spiritual enlightenment faith and belief can enter the heart and mind! A true born again spirit filled preacher/prophet who walks in the spirit speaks under the unction and power of the Holy Spirit has, speaks, carries and reveals/manifests all the virtues and attributes of the Lord Jesus at the same time. Jesus is NOT DIVIDED, it’s all or nothing! The spirit of righteousness brings conviction, the spirit of mercy and love brings reconciliation and grace is given unto repentance. As grace precedes faith and belief.

Romans 1:16 (NKJV)

The Just Live by Faith

16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.

Any person WITHOUT the anointing of the Holy Spirit can still preach the Word or even distort, manipulate and deceive the Word of God because they are not inspired by the Holy Spirit or preach their own belief and NOT SPIRIT and TRUTH. The Holy Spirit is ALL TRUTH, no darkness so no lies, deceptions or manipulation of the Word of God.

Satan has his own version of grace so that you would believe his lies, deceit, twisting and manipulations of the True Word of the Living God Christ Jesus. We know this to be true both by the Old Testament as well as the New Testament. Satan’s grace is witchcraft! Just as the Holy Spirit brings “enlightenment” which is Spirit and Truth, Satan uses witchcraft to ONLY bring enlightenment NO TRUTH! I was once in a church the Lord sent me to. I did not initially know why I was sent. I sat through the first service and within minutes of the sermon starting the Lord revealed the pastor’s heart to me. The Holy Spirit spoke to me: “Freemason, adultery, fornication and deception”.

As usual most pastors will great new attendees trying to get them as sheep in the pews. So the pastor came up to great me. He acknowledged us being new as I had brought a 73 year old widow with me as the Lord placed her in my care. She too had a witness that we were supposed to go to this church. When the pastor finished his greeting to us. I said the Lord has given me prophetic word for you, would you like to hear it. He said yes. I said this is the Word of the Lord for you. Thus says the Lord, my Word is Holy, unadulterated, pure and to be reverenced. Many confess the name of the Lord but their hearts are far from Him.

The pastor stood for a moment then continued on speaking with others. He came back to me as I approached the exit and said to me I’d like to meet with you for breakfast tomorrow at the local dinner. The Holy Spirit said to me go. So I said yes. At our meeting at breakfast the pastor asked me who discipled you and taught you. I said no man has taught me but the Lord Jesus has taught me. I quoted 1 John 2:27. He said that he would like to disciple me and mentor me. I said I was not in the need of that. He was trying to get me to surrender Spirit and Truth! When I got home after breakfast I was home about an hour and the Holy Spirit told me that the pastor would call me as I gave him my number at breakfast. I said to widow I care for the Lord just told me that the pastor is going to call and want to visit us and the Lord said no. Two hours later my phone rang and the pastor said he and his wife wanted to visit. I said we were unable to visit at that time.

I went to the next Sunday sermon as the Lord instructed with the 73 year old widow I cared for. We were standing as the worship had begun. The Holy Spirit said to me “cover her with my blood” so I reached over to the 73 year old widow and placed my hand upon her and whispered in prayer in the name of Jesus I cover you in the blood of Jesus against the attacks of all unrighteousness and ungodliness in Jesus name. Within a few moments a high ranking Freemason entered the church with their book/bible with the compass and square on it! It was a battle for the pastors heart/soul and a decision only the pastor could make. Quite a few members commented to us and asked if we saw this. The 73 year old widow who was with me did not see it, she was covered by the Blood of Jesus.

The Lord then told me the following Wednesday to go to the evening service and I went alone leaving the widow behind. During his sermon the pastor spoke and said: Illumination is Revelation! Immediately the Holy Spirit spoke in my Spirit. LIGHT AND TRUTH! Illumination without TRUTH is not Revelation! It is deception! That was my last time at that church. This confirmed the pastor would not repent and turn to Jesus. False grace is Illumination/Light WITHOUT SPIRITUAL TRUTH. Only The Holy Spirit and Truth of the Holy Spirit can give true revelations of light and truth. The devils grace is witchcraft.

2 Corinthians 11:4–8 (NKJV)

4 For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted—you may well put up with it!

Paul and False Apostles

5 For I consider that I am not at all inferior to the most eminent apostles. 6 Even though I am untrained in speech, yet I am not in knowledge. But we have been thoroughly manifested among you in all things.

7 Did I commit sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached the gospel of God to you free of charge? 8 I robbed other churches, taking wages from them to minister to you.

2 Corinthians 11:10–15 (NKJV)

10 As the truth of Christ is in me, no one shall stop me from this boasting in the regions of Achaia. 11 Why? Because I do not love you? God knows!

12 But what I do, I will also continue to do, that I may cut off the opportunity from those who desire an opportunity to be regarded just as we are in the things of which they boast. 13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.

There is a large misconception that grace is a “corporate” presence rather than an “individual” presence. A false belief is that being in a church building you are corporately “covered” by grace and you are NOT. The pastor is NOT your covering! Only Jesus is your covering!

This is what really deceives people with alleged “revivals” that everyone had a “come to Jesus moment”. That is utter nonsense and deception. I tell you that most of the revivals are the rising of the spirit of Antichrist! Just look at the condition of the world and tell me otherwise. I won’t expound on that at this time but just look around and see for yourselves.

Let us reflect on the serpent and Eve back in the garden. Eve had already known the truth of the Word of God about the tree of knowledge of good and evil. The serpent used FALSE GRACE which is witchcraft to attack the mind and thoughts of Eve to attack the Spirit of Truth. There was a false grace of witchcraft presented to Eve to bring confusion to her mind thus creating doubt and unbelief! Unbelief is the “original sin”. Once unbelief of the Fahter’s Word was created a “false truth” was established! That was the fall of Eve!

2 Corinthians 10:3–6 (NKJV)

3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. 4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, 5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, 6 and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled.

Adam was “asleep” not protecting his wife! When Jesus went into the Garden of Gethsemane He asked the disciples to “stand guard” and pray. They fell asleep! THREE TIMES! I will just put an excerpt of scripture as you can go read that event.

Matthew 26:40–41 (NKJV)

40 Then He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, “What! Could you not watch with Me one hour? 41 Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

All you need to do is look at the Old Testament. Why the Old Testament, that is because grace was not corporate. It was the prophets who received grace of revelations of the Lord to speak the oracles of God. If grace was corporate everyone that heard the prophets would have received grace to adhere to the oracles of God. Today we have sons/daughters of the devil in church assemblies and in the pulpits. Notice I said sons/daughters not lost people of the world who have not heard the gospel of salvation. These sons/daughters of the devil want to hear what is being preached but not from the Spirit of the Lord. They once desired Spirit and Truth but allowed the false grace of witchcraft by the devil to do to them what the serpent did to Eve! They are partakers in the “house/synagogue of Satan” believing they are in the house of the Lord. So all the songs they sing are not worshiping Jesus they are worshiping Satan! All the time believing they will never loose their salvation because they believe Once Saved Always Saved!

Tell me what is the difference in meaning between “surely you will not die” and “once saved always saved”? Different vernacular but same meaning!

1 Peter 4:1–11 (ESV)

Stewards of God’s Grace

4 Since therefore Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same way of thinking, for whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, 2 so as to live for the rest of the time in the flesh no longer for human passions but for the will of God. 3 For the time that is past suffices for doing what the Gentiles want to do, living in sensuality, passions, drunkenness, orgies, drinking parties, and lawless idolatry. 4 With respect to this they are surprised when you do not join them in the same flood of debauchery, and they malign you; 5 but they will give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead. 6 For this is why the gospel was preached even to those who are dead, that though judged in the flesh the way people are, they might live in the spirit the way God does.

7 The end of all things is at hand; therefore be self-controlled and sober-minded for the sake of your prayers. 8 Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins. 9 Show hospitality to one another without grumbling. 10 As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace: 11 whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

What people do not understand completely is they do not believe that judgment has already come for the house of the Lord. They think and confuse it with the “last day”. If you read my blog post on Jesus verses the Pharisees you would see the face to face judgment of the Pharisees who “represented the house of the Lord”. Jesus said that He did not come to bring peace but judgment! The foundation of the church in the New Testament is established by the Apostles and Prophets who were killed for trying to restore the foundation of Christ Jesus in the house of the Lord. The lies of the devil have told people that there are no more Apostles and Prophets. The foundation of Spirit and Truth has been removed and Ichabod is written upon the church and the people who assemble in that church.

Here is an Old Testament example:

1 Samuel 15:16–31 (NKJV)

16 Then Samuel said to Saul, “Be quiet! And I will tell you what the Lord said to me last night.”

And he said to him, “Speak on.”

17 So Samuel said, “When you were little in your own eyes, were you not head of the tribes of Israel? And did not the Lord anoint you king over Israel? 18 Now the Lord sent you on a mission, and said, ‘Go, and utterly destroy the sinners, the Amalekites, and fight against them until they are consumed.’ 19 Why then did you not obey the voice of the Lord? Why did you swoop down on the spoil, and do evil in the sight of the Lord?”

20 And Saul said to Samuel, “But I have obeyed the voice of the Lord, and gone on the mission on which the Lord sent me, and brought back Agag king of Amalek; I have utterly destroyed the Amalekites. 21 But the people took of the plunder, sheep and oxen, the best of the things which should have been utterly destroyed, to sacrifice to the Lord your God in Gilgal.”

22 So Samuel said:

“Has the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices,

As in obeying the voice of the Lord?

Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice,

And to heed than the fat of rams.

23 For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft,

And stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry.

Because you have rejected the word of the Lord,

He also has rejected you from being king.”

Let’s comment on what has transpired this far. Saul actually said that he obeyed the voice of the Lord but Saul was “bewitched” by the people/brethren and desired to please the people/brethren/church assembly. Notice Samuel equates stubbornness with idolatry OF SELF. That is why the Apostle Peter said, should we please men or please God! Saul was anointed to be king, the people were not! Grace was given to Saul not to the people! The people were under a different spirit! Jesus would have said to the people, GET BEHIND ME SATAN! A different grace from a different spirit. The devil will give power to those that are deceived as well as those who are not deceived and serve the devil in personal choice. Remember the example of the pastor I mentioned. He was given a choice to repent and turn back to the Lord but when the high ranking Freemason showed up “his bread and butter” of financial gain and earthly recognition were what he chose. That is why the devil does signs and wonders by a different and false grace and spirit of empowerment! Let’s continue.

24 Then Saul said to Samuel, “I have sinned, for I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord and your words, because I feared the people and obeyed their voice. 25 Now therefore, please pardon my sin, and return with me, that I may worship the Lord.”

26 But Samuel said to Saul, “I will not return with you, for you have rejected the word of the Lord, and the Lord has rejected you from being king over Israel.”

27 And as Samuel turned around to go away, Saul seized the edge of his robe, and it tore. 28 So Samuel said to him, “The Lord has torn the kingdom of Israel from you today, and has given it to a neighbor of yours, who is better than you. 29 And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor relent. For He is not a man, that He should relent.”

30 Then he said, “I have sinned; yet honor me now, please, before the elders of my people and before Israel, and return with me, that I may worship the Lord your God.” 31 So Samuel turned back after Saul, and Saul worshiped the Lord.

Ichabod. Name given to Phineas’ son (Eli’s grandson) to commemorate the glory that had departed from Israel, after the ark of God was taken by the Philistines (1 Sm 4:19–22; 14:3).

Phineas was killed in the battle of Aphek, at the same time the Philistines had captured the ark. When Phineas’ wife heard of the tragedy, she went immediately into labor, and when the child was born she named him Ichabod (meaning “no glory”) to sum up her despair.

No glory is NO LIGHT and TRUTH!

When Saul from Tarsus was on the road to Damascus why weren’t the others that were with Saul “saved” or “convicted” by the Lord? Surely there they were assisting Paul in rounding up Christians so that would have made them brethren. Grace was individually received NOT corporately received. So there is great deception within the assembly of a “church building” that everyone in their assembly/brethren and that the pastor/prophet must be from the Lord and this is deception! People blindly follow a pastor/prophet that went to seminary, bible college, has degrees in divinity, theology but MAY NEVER BE BORN AGAIN! That was Saul from Tarsus! Saul had the written approval of the Pharisees to round up Christians and bring them to the Pharisee High Priest to be stoned. This is happening in the modern church who has already been judged. The Word says that when the number of martyrs is complete the Lord will return. Jesus is not referring to being killed or beheaded physically. Jesus is talking spiritually. The saints who were true to the Lord that have passed are NOT dead spiritually! Jesus is referring to the “second death”. When a new Christian (babe in Christ) receives the Lord by the Holy Spirit and sits in this body/church structure they will deteriorate spiritually because they partake of the body/blood of another Jesus! This is why it is imperative to seek the Lord yourself in Spirit and Truth and to grow in spiritual love with Jesus. Most people do not understand that the church is the “testing ground” to see if you truly love the Lord with all of your heart. If you do you will come out of Mystery Babylon the Harlot Church. I am not attempting to “bash” all churches but the majority are not of the Lord or have fallen from the Lord.

Matthew 23:15 (NKJV)

15 “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel land and sea to win one proselyte, and when he is won, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves.

Read my blog post: https://abidingbread.com/2025/06/07/jesus-verses-the-pharisees/

In 1 Peter 4 line 8 it says above all love one another earnestly as love covers a multitude of sins. So how do you truly love someone when you remove VIRTUES & ATTRIBUTES of Christ Jesus. A false grace is not of the Lord Jesus so there is NO love of Jesus in false grace. True grace has all of the virtues and attributes of Jesus!

Romans 14:17 (ESV)

17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

1 Corinthians 8:1–13 (ESV)

Food Offered to Idols

8 Now concerning food offered to idols: we know that “all of us possess knowledge.” This “knowledge” puffs up, but love builds up. 2 If anyone imagines that he knows something, he does not yet know as he ought to know. 3 But if anyone loves God, he is known by God.

4 Therefore, as to the eating of food offered to idols, we know that “an idol has no real existence,” and that “there is no God but one.” 5 For although there may be so-called gods in heaven or on earth—as indeed there are many “gods” and many “lords”— 6 yet for us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we exist, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and through whom we exist.

7 However, not all possess this knowledge. But some, through former association with idols, eat food as really offered to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled. 8 Food will not commend us to God. We are no worse off if we do not eat, and no better off if we do. 9 But take care that this right of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak. 10 For if anyone sees you who have knowledge eating in an idol’s temple, will he not be encouraged, if his conscience is weak, to eat food offered to idols? 11 And so by your knowledge this weak person is destroyed, the brother for whom Christ died. 12 Thus, sinning against your brothers and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ. 13 Therefore, if food makes my brother stumble, I will never eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble.

The food Paul is talking about is TURE spiritual food which is nourishment for our souls edifying our Spirit. Paul is telling us to be careful of food/seeds/words that represent the false grace which is a falling away from Spirit and Truth. The church/pastor/prophet is offering food/words/seeds from idols and worship of other gods. When you repeat these false teachings to others you are potentially condemning their souls. Even if you put all denominations together you would still NOT HAVE SPIRIT AND TRUTH as each denomination falls short of the fullness of Spirit and Truth. Ecumenism is not of the Lord Jesus, you can’t have a diversity of beliefs/spirits and gods and call it of the Lord Jesus. A kingdom is NOT divided.

2 Corinthians 11:1–4 (NKJV)

Concern for Their Faithfulness

11 Oh, that you would bear with me in a little folly—and indeed you do bear with me. 2 For I am jealous for you with godly jealousy. For I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. 3 But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4 For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted—you may well put up with it!

We also have a false demonic grace in the New Testament which Paul exposes to the Galatians. Paul asks the Galatians “who has bewitched you” that you have fallen from grace! If they fell from the grace of Jesus what grace did they fall into?

Ephesians 4:14–24 (NKJV)

14 that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, 15 but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ—16 from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.

The New Man

17 This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the futility of their mind, 18 having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart; 19 who, being past feeling, have given themselves over to lewdness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

20 But you have not so learned Christ, 21 if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus: 22 that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, 23 and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, 24 and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.

Galatians 3 (NKJV)

Justification by Faith

3 O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed among you as crucified? 2 This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?—3 Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the flesh? 4 Have you suffered so many things in vain—if indeed it was in vain?

5 Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? 6 just as Abraham “believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” 7 Therefore know that only those who are of faith are sons of Abraham. 8 And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, “In you all the nations shall be blessed.” 9 So then those who are of faith are blessed with believing Abraham.

The Law Brings a Curse

10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse; for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the law, to do them.” 11 But that no one is justified by the law in the sight of God is evident, for “the just shall live by faith.” 12 Yet the law is not of faith, but “the man who does them shall live by them.”

13 Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”), 14 that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

The Changeless Promise

15 Brethren, I speak in the manner of men: Though it is only a man’s covenant, yet if it is confirmed, no one annuls or adds to it. 16 Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, “And to seeds,” as of many, but as of one, “And to your Seed,” who is Christ. 17 And this I say, that the law, which was four hundred and thirty years later, cannot annul the covenant that was confirmed before by God in Christ, that it should make the promise of no effect. 18 For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no longer of promise; but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

Purpose of the Law

19 What purpose then does the law serve? It was added because of transgressions, till the Seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was appointed through angels by the hand of a mediator. 20 Now a mediator does not mediate for one only, but God is one.

21 Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness would have been by the law. 22 But the Scripture has confined all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. 23 But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed. 24 Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25 But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.

Sons and Heirs

26 For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

As I stated in the beginning it is grace before faith that we believe in Jesus and the gospel of reconciliation. The devil brings his version of grace which is witchcraft which brings confusion, doubt and unbelief! “Did god really say”. Surely god has not said. This is being tossed to and fro with every wind of doctrine that Paul is warning us about. There is a spiritual force behind the “false demonic grace” of the devil.

Look at King Saul and his progression to even having a witch conjure up the spirit of Samuel! Saul could no longer hear the voice of God himself and Samuel was no longer alive. Necromancy is of the devil! Not that Samuel was dead spiritually but the spirit of necromancy is of the devil!

Deuteronomy 18:1–22 (NKJV)

The Portion of the Priests and Levites

18 “The priests, the Levites—all the tribe of Levi—shall have no part nor inheritance with Israel; they shall eat the offerings of the Lord made by fire, and His portion. 2 Therefore they shall have no inheritance among their brethren; the Lord is their inheritance, as He said to them.

3 “And this shall be the priest’s due from the people, from those who offer a sacrifice, whether it is bull or sheep: they shall give to the priest the shoulder, the cheeks, and the stomach. 4 The firstfruits of your grain and your new wine and your oil, and the first of the fleece of your sheep, you shall give him. 5 For the Lord your God has chosen him out of all your tribes to stand to minister in the name of the Lord, him and his sons forever.

6 “So if a Levite comes from any of your gates, from where he dwells among all Israel, and comes with all the desire of his mind to the place which the Lord chooses, 7 then he may serve in the name of the Lord his God as all his brethren the Levites do, who stand there before the Lord. 8 They shall have equal portions to eat, besides what comes from the sale of his inheritance.

Avoid Wicked Customs

9 “When you come into the land which the Lord your God is giving you, you shall not learn to follow the abominations of those nations. 10 There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, or one who practices witchcraft, or a soothsayer, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, 11 or one who conjures spells, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead. 12 For all who do these things are an abomination to the Lord, and because of these abominations the Lord your God drives them out from before you. 13 You shall be blameless before the Lord your God. 14 For these nations which you will dispossess listened to soothsayers and diviners; but as for you, the Lord your God has not appointed such for you.

A New Prophet Like Moses

15 “The Lord your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from your midst, from your brethren. Him you shall hear, 16 according to all you desired of the Lord your God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, ‘Let me not hear again the voice of the Lord my God, nor let me see this great fire anymore, lest I die.’

17 “And the Lord said to me: ‘What they have spoken is good. 18 I will raise up for them a Prophet like you from among their brethren, and will put My words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him. 19 And it shall be that whoever will not hear My words, which He speaks in My name, I will require it of him. 20 But the prophet who presumes to speak a word in My name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.’ 21 And if you say in your heart, ‘How shall we know the word which the Lord has not spoken?’—22 when a prophet speaks in the name of the Lord, if the thing does not happen or come to pass, that is the thing which the Lord has not spoken; the prophet has spoken it presumptuously; you shall not be afraid of him.

In line 9 above the Word of God warns us about when we enter another land we should not follow the abominations of that land. This would also apply to a “church” or assembly of people. We know that Moses was speaking of the birth of Jesus as the prophet to come who would be the Incarnate Living Word of God. I hope you are beginning to see how there is the Grace of God from the Lord Jesus and the false grace of Satan which is witchcraft that is used to make the lies and deceit appear as truth. This is often cause by a “spirit of confusion” which is witchcraft. It gets you to question your own belief and personal knowledge of Jesus. Remember Adam and Eve walked in the Garden with the Father so they knew the Father! Witchcraft will accuse you of “misinterpretation, misunderstanding, confusion”, etc. That is why the terminology of what is commonly spoken this days is “that’s your interpretation”! Truth is not an interpretation Truth is the Spirit of God, Christ Jesus! There is no interpretation as Truth stands above the wisdom/foolishness of humanity.

Jezebel is the master of getting you to question your belief, interpretation and understanding by using witchcraft! You can reach the point where you question what once was ROCK SOLID in your beliefs. That is the false grace I am referring to as it is a spirit of witchcraft getting you to deny your belief to follow another belief. That is what happened to Eve. She “entertained” the serpent rather than standing firm on Word of God spoken and revealed to her. There is NO POLITICS or DEBATING Spirit and Truth. For iron to sharpen iron there must be “oil” applied or the blade goes dull no matter how hard you try to sharpen the blade. THE OIL IS THE HOLY SPIRIT AND HUMILITY! A spirit pride will not be able to be sharpened in Spirit and Truth! That is why the Israelite’s spent 40 years in the wilderness and yet they still could NOT get Egypt out of their hearts! Moses reminded them of the great “I AM” that delivered them but they were making golden calves.

I have seen this witchcraft and have helped people only to be mocked, ridiculed and forced out of churches as my belief of Spirit and Truth was totally different than the deceptions they called truth.

I hope this posting has helped some of you to recognize the “false spiritual grace” which is witchcraft from the devil. In Revelation 2 that is why Jezebel is mentioned about teaching and fornication as it is lies, deception, witchcraft and false prophecy! You end up worshiping Baal just as Jezebel brought Baal worship to Israel through COVENANT MARRIAGE to Ahab! You end up in covenant to Jezebel because every single word spoken has spirit attached to it. Life and death is in the power of the tongue.

Proverbs 18:21 (NKJV)

21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue,

And those who love it will eat its fruit.

Remember the prophets of God always exposed the false prophets of Jezebel and Baal! Today there are churches/assemblies/brethren which are in the house of Jezebel and Baal.

2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV)

7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

I pray this post has blessed you. There are times you truly need to come out of the “spiritual atmosphere” of witchcraft to hear clearly from the Lord. That is why Elijah ran, remember Elijah had already defeated and killed 850 prophets who served Jezebel. There is a huge difference between a servant and a “master”. Jezebel had the empowerment of her gods behind her and empowering her. That is what came at Elijah, you would run also! He was SENT so he was empowered! He was not afraid the way people think. Jezebel is not merely a spirit it is a principality! Jezebel got her power from the principalities just like the Prince of Persia in the book of Daniel! Daniel did not receive the Word of God until the Prince (principality) of Persia was defeated by the Lord’s angels.

I know what it is to get spiritually hit by a principality as it has happened numerous times to me. Sometimes resulting in severe sickness and hospitalization as Jezebel tried/tries to kill me physically because she couldn’t kill me spiritually. Jezebel is behind people committing suicide! I know this also. I was suicidal since the age of 5 and battled it until I was 49 constantly attached by Jezebel. I might not have been born again but that spirit of Jezebel was trying to kill me to keep the call of God from coming to me. Just as Jesus was in Mary’s womb and Joseph had to move her out of the area because the life of Jesus was threatened.

1 Kings 19:2–4 (NKJV)

2 Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, “So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I do not make your life as the life of one of them by tomorrow about this time.” 3 And when he saw that, he arose and ran for his life, and went to Beersheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his servant there.

4 But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a broom tree. And he prayed that he might die, and said, “It is enough! Now, Lord, take my life, for I am no better than my fathers!”

Jezebel will make you question your calling, self worth as a Christian, your spiritual belief in Christ Jesus and even doubt if your journey with Jesus is real! I am talking severe witchcraft! I was subjected to this by a well know international ministry the Lord SENT me to. I have had the Jezebel spirit speak to me without anyone around. Simply because the Lord exposed Jezebel through me as a servant of the Lord. That Jezebel spirit said to me you have 1 month to live. I heard it several times for about a full day. The Holy Spirit rose in me as I raise my hands to heaven and said. Spirit of death, I will never die as I have eternal life in Christ Jesus. In the name of Jesus spirit of death leave now! I never heard that voice again.

May you be blessed by this post. May you be blessed with revelations of Christ Jesus and be free in the Spirit of the Lord! Do not let anyone bewitch you! If you have been blessed lift up the Lord!

ACCEPTING JESUS INTO YOUR HEART -FALSE WITNESSING – FALSE CONVERT

ACCEPTING JESUS INTO YOUR HEART – FALSE WITNESSING – FALSE CONVERT – ANOTHER JESUS – ANOTHER SPIRIT

As with any of my postings I do my best to try to communicate what is on my heart the best that I can. Please take all matters to the Lord in prayer. It is NOT my will that anyone be deceived. The enemy is after all of us, including me! I pray the Holy Spirit bears witness to all of you. If not then it could be for a different time in your walk with the Lord. DO NOT ACCEPT WHAT THE HOLY SPIRIT DOES NOT REVEAL BUT PRAY INTO IT. God bless the saints of the Lord and may the fullness of His love and spirit dwell and manifest richly within you.

Accepting is not believing! You must know what you are accepting, lies or truth and even what spirit. True believing is when the mind and heart are ONE. Not separate! You are not accepting Jesus as you believe Him to be you are accepting Him AS LORD and Savior. You misrepresent the Lord by just presenting a Savior! Jesus is LORD before Savior. This is why John the Baptist said repent, why Jesus said repent and why Peter said repent. What is the 99.9% most used evangelical slogan/line of deception for saving a person? It is say this prayer and accept Jesus into you heart! Even if you don’t have them pray a prayer and just say accept Jesus into your heart is of deception of the devil. You have allowed the person their own interpretation and understanding of who ‘their” Jesus is to take root. It is as if remaining in sin and yet right standing with Jesus. This is why “unconditional love” is not true representation. Light has no fellowship with darkness. You have another gospel and another Jesus. People must come to Jesus on HIS terms not their own invitation! It is the Holy Spirit that convicts the heart and when you distort the Word of God you are not representing the Spirit of God. So you are not witnessing Jesus you are representing yourself as Jesus and a false identity of witness! You are NOT GOD. I have come against the heretical phrase “you must know your identity in Christ Jesus” hundreds of times and no on will listen. That is a prideful and boastful statement which damns your soul and the souls of others! There is “spirit” in every word we speak as live and death are in the tongue!

A true witness starts with spiritual conviction of the heart! Look at Saul from Tarsus and his encounter with Jesus! It was Jesus who convicted Saul of sin and it is supposed to be the Holy Spirit in us that convicts the people who have a heart to receive conviction. Some will not be ready or have been already turned over to the desires of their heart. They are required to repent and believe in both their mind and heart! Eve did not die physically she died Spiritually when she had partaken in the “seeds/words” of the serpent. It was because of her mind/thoughts heard what was spoken then took root in her heart which entered her soul. The deception went from the mind to the heart and entered her soul! She believed the lie and accepted it as truth into her heart affecting her soul. The Holy Spirit does not dwell in your heart. Don’t tell me they know what you mean by evangelizing this way as they are already likely deceived by the devil because of the fallen nature. We must speak spirit to spirit which resides in the soul! Flesh speaks to flesh!

Conviction comes from the soul not the heart. The Holy Spirit “pricks” the heart bearing witness to the soul! They are “accepting Jesus” from a person they do not know, so how would they know who they are accepting? They get convicted by the Holy Spirit. If you are not walking in the spirit there is not penetration of the soul. After all we can’t do nothing of ourselves! Without the Holy Spirit there is no spiritual witness to the soul and thus just a “mind and heart game” of false belief. How did Peter do it in Acts. People got baptized right there as water baptism is not required. When you get baptized in the Holy Spirit you are baptized in both water and spirit!

Acts 2:36–39 (NKJV)

36 “Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.”

37 Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Men and brethren, what shall we do?”

38 Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.”

Here Peter is speaking to the “house of Israel” and Peter does not mention being baptized in water. The “house” is the people of Israel not the nation of Israel and this was 2000 plus years ago. It was never about the land, state or country. You can’t make a “land” a royal priesthood! The redeemed and born again are the new city of Jerusalem called Israel! It is a spiritual Jerusalem. The Rabbinical baptism is no longer necessary or a true sign of conversion being born again. It is a Rabbinical custom/tradition to wash away spirits! Why would a born again Christian after getting a false baptisms in water have to tarry for the Holy Spirit? If you are baptized the Lord you are baptized in water and Spirit. Go back to Genesis and see how creation began. There were many waters and God created firmament and the waters were divided the heavens were above the water and the earth and creation were blow the firmament. Heaven is Water and Spirit as God is Water and Spirit. YOU WILL NEVER THIRST IF YOU DRINK FROM ME!

Now here is the punchline. Our Father of Faith was not a Jew and was never water baptized and neither were his descendants.

How does a “woman” give birth, by water! When her water breaks it is time for the child to come and be “delivered”. So when someone is “born of the Holy Spirit” they are born of both water and Spirit. You miss an opportunity to get someone born again. Instead you ask them to church when you are supposed to be the church! Rabbinical water baptism was not about sin, it was the “removal” of spirits! A “self cleansing” of spirit just like the pigs going into water to remove the spirits of legion! A false sense of spiritual deliverance! That is one reason why Jesus did NOT need to get baptized by John the Baptist but Jesus said yes. Jesus had NO SIN, there was nothing of Satan in Jesus. It was a demonstration to the people of spiritual baptism in Christ Jesus that was to come. The dove was representative of the New Covenant with Noah which they had known. So the BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WAS DEMONSTRATED AS BOTH WATER AND SPIRIT IN ONE! When you get water baptism which is not required today it is a confession/testimony of what is supposed to have already happened within you by the Holy Spirit! It is not the “prelude” to receiving the Holy Spirit. You are not saved by the religious works of water baptism. So just know that it is not necessary and the devil uses this as a “false witness” as men can not cleanse themselves as the Rabbinical teachings of water baptism.

Acts 19:1–6 (NKJV)

Paul at Ephesus

19 And it happened, while Apollos was at Corinth, that Paul, having passed through the upper regions, came to Ephesus. And finding some disciples 2 he said to them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?”

So they said to him, “We have not so much as heard whether there is a Holy Spirit.”

3 And he said to them, “Into what then were you baptized?”

So they said, “Into John’s baptism.”

4 Then Paul said, “John indeed baptized with a baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe on Him who would come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.”

5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 And when Paul had laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.

Satan often fools people by believing they are saved by water baptism! Notice exactly what Paul says DID YOU RECEIVE THE HOLY SPIRIT WHEN YOU BELIEVED! Do you see the deception. THE NEW TESTAMENT DOES NOT REQUIRE WATER BAPTISM. Paul is directly stating it is upon belief in Christ Jesus not an invitation of inviting Jesus into your heart! Repentance comes first! If you had to “dunk them in water” how could you continue to witness to the multitudes as you would spend all day baptizing in water. I got baptized in the Spirit in the middle of a field just me and the Lord. No sermon, no pastor, no one around.

Matthew 3:13–17 (NKJV)

Baptism of Jesus

Mark 1:9–11; Luke 3:21–23

13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan to be baptized by him. 14 And John tried to prevent Him, saying, “I need to be baptized by You, and are You coming to me?”

15 But Jesus answered and said to him, “Permit it to be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he allowed Him.

16 When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him. 17 And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”

Jesus allowed John but it was not necessary! Jesus was already “born of spirit” because He was conceived/born by The Holy Spirit. It was not necessary for Jesus to be water baptized. Jesus was demonstrating what the NEW baptism of the Holy Spirit truly was, water and Spirit combined as one. You might ask why? NO MAN OR WOMAN CAN DECEIVE WHAT THE HOLY SPIRIT DOES. So the old water baptism was a source of man trying to redeem man/himself which is total deception! A man must be born again!

Remember I told you the Rabbinical water baptism was symbolic of the removal of spirits! Now think about what the water baptism of Jesus. It did NOT remove the Holy Spirit from Jesus instead when the Dove came it bore witness to the Spirit already in Jesus already! Jesus did not get baptized in the Holy Spirit! Jesus was the incarnate fullness of the Father as the Son of God. It was a witness to the NEW COVENANT from the writings of Moses and Noah’s Arc. Jesus was the Christ and the NEW COVENANT. This is the same as Noah’s Arc and Noah releasing the white dove and it came back with a leaf from an olive tree! That is why John did not want to baptize Jesus and said YOU MUST baptize me. Later in the gospel Jesus confirms this to the Pharisees by saying there IS ONE WHO BEARS witness of me accept one! Jesus also told them they searched the scriptures of Moses and they said they followed Moses. Jesus spoke again if you followed Moses you would know me as Moses testified of Me (Jesus) who was to come!

Matthew 3:13–17 (NKJV)

Baptism of Jesus

Mark 1:9–11; Luke 3:21–23

13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan to be baptized by him. 14 And John tried to prevent Him, saying, “I need to be baptized by You, and are You coming to me?”

15 But Jesus answered and said to him, “Permit it to be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he allowed Him.

16 When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him. 17 And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”

I hope you see the foolishness in the churches today that use religious beliefs that you must be water baptized and wait and pray for the Holy Spirit to come! When the Holy Spirit came it was both water and Spirit! You can baptize in the streets just as Paul evangelized! What do we do, we invite them to church to sit in a house/fellowship of deception. There is no spiritual growth in a house of deception so the Holy Spirit is not increasing and sanctifying you in Spirit and Truth because you “digest/eat” forbidden seeds of false doctrine and that works against the Holy Spirit in you!

Matthew 6:22–23 (NKJV)

22  “The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light. 23 But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!

Now think of this. Abraham our Father of Faith was not a Jew. Secondly, Abraham and his descendants did NOT GET WATER BAPTIZED. There is no record of it in the bible. At least I could not find it.

Every single denomination and nearly all professing Christian churches have mixtures of truth with lies and deception! You are partaking of forbidden “seeds” from the serpent. I don’t need to go into this I am saying that the ecumenism movement of all false denominations/churches is the combined one world religion. It is the serpent Satan himself that sows “seeds” and all the false beliefs, lies, deceptions, gospels, spirits and another Jesus that Paul warns of. All of this is being formed into the One World Religion of the HARLOT BEAST! It doesn’t matter what denomination of deception they are all deceived! So I am not singling out one in specific they are all wrong in one way or the other! Now this being said the Lord normally has a true witness within these denominations but only for a season not long lasting. They try to bring correction but are refused, slandered, mocked and ridiculed. The very people you are trying to help are the ones shouting “crucify him”. I wrote about 2 types of prodigal sons: https://abidingbread.com/2026/01/16/two-types-of-prodigal-sons/

Revelation 18:1–8 (NKJV)

The Fall of Babylon the Great

18 After these things I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority, and the earth was illuminated with his glory. 2 And he cried mightily with a loud voice, saying, “Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and has become a dwelling place of demons, a prison for every foul spirit, and a cage for every unclean and hated bird! 3 For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich through the abundance of her luxury.”

4 And I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues. 5 For her sins have reached to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities. 6 Render to her just as she rendered to you, and repay her double according to her works; in the cup which she has mixed, mix double for her. 7 In the measure that she glorified herself and lived luxuriously, in the same measure give her torment and sorrow; for she says in her heart, ‘I sit as queen, and am no widow, and will not see sorrow.’ 8 Therefore her plagues will come in one day—death and mourning and famine. And she will be utterly burned with fire, for strong is the Lord God who judges her.

John 15:5 (NKJV)

5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.

The mind/thoughts and emotions/heart create the soul/will of a man or woman. The heart, mind and soul is the correct sequence given by the Lord! This has significant purpose and meaning. If you love the Lord with all of your heart you will not be easily deceived in your mind/thoughts even though you are under spiritual attack by deceptive and deceitful teachings of false prophets and brethren! LOVE can only be established by intimacy which is Spirit to Spirit. Why spirit to spirit because your soul is where the Holy Spirit dwells as a “mustard seed”. This is why Paul said he prayed without ceasing! Praying is sharing your heart and thoughts which is your soul with the Lord throughout the day! This is why David said he meditated on the WORD/LAWS. Jesus is the Word and the law is only fulfilled by and through Jesus.

Acts 2:36–38 (NKJV)

36 “Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.”

37 Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Men and brethren, what shall we do?”

38 Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

A house of people as Peter is stating is the “people alive at that time were called” not the nation as a land, state or nation. Many are called but few are chosen. So today the true Israel is the redeemed in Christ Jesus not the Nation of Israel. If you believe the people from 2000 years ago are alive today then you are believing foolishness and lies of deception. Many were called but few were chosen at that time. Today MANY ARE called but FEW ARE CHOSEN!

That is why Jesus exposed the hearts because it is a reflection of the soul where spirit dwells. I wrote a blog post concerning pastors that say only the Lord knows the hearts of people and that is a lie! A partial truth is a lie! They speak this to deny spiritual discernment/judgment likely because they have secret sin or are not born again in Spirit and Truth and hearing the voice of God directly themselves. I always choose the later, no Spirit or Truth as that rises up the Holy Spirit in me to stand guard! The Holy Spirit does not lie or deceive. This puts up a wall/shield in my spirit against lies, deception and continued lies. Read that article: https://abidingbread.com/2026/01/13/the-spiritual-lies-and-deception-of-only-the-lord-knows-the-heart/

Jesus never invited someone into His heart by accepting him. He said pick up your cross. That is “repentance before Lordship then unto salvation” to the ONE you will follow. The disciples never said invite Jesus into your heart! Do you know why? Jesus doesn’t dwell in your heart to begin with. That is right! Nope, never did and never will! This is why people are often deceived into false salvation, false converts, and believe you can’t lose your salvation! This is how real faith is perverted! It is a carnal man/woman trying to “save” another carnal man/woman! Where is the Holy Spirit in that?

This is how bondage remains and people begin to think that Jesus doesn’t love them because they don’t feel like they are making progress spiritually and walk away from faith if they ever had faith to begin with. This is why people believe you sin daily and we are all sinners! Lies, lies, lies and more lies! Those are statements of self justification in disguise of yourself being a sinner! You are not hungering for righteousness or pursuing holiness! You will never achieve it with that mindset by making excuses for sin. A born again saint will get convicted by the Holy Spirit out of love for the Lord and repent of their transgression and seek grace to overcome that transgression! If you deny this process by believing lies that upon receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit you were totally sanctified you open yourself up to more “seeds/words” of deception and lies! You deny the Holy Spirit directly by these statements so either you are NOT BORN AGAIN or have not made Jesus Lord of your life! You are your own lord to yourself which is exactly the nature of the serpent! The word sanctified in much of the scripture means “set apart” not holiness! You may fool those around you but the Lord will not be mocked or fooled. Why would you need to pursue holiness if you were completely sanctified upon being born again?

Romans 10:8–13 (NKJV)

8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. 13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

If you don’t evangelize (sow) correctly you will not “reap” correctly! When you sow false seeds you reap a false harvest from those seeds! You create tares thinking you have created wheat! Which is likely how you were taught by false teachings/prophets as you are a disciple of the church and NOT a disciple of Christ Jesus. It is just like Jesus told the Pharisees that they search out for one convert and make them twice the child of hell that they are!

If/when the true saints believe the lies they start to fall away as every lie that is spoken and believed takes residence in your soul and WARS against the Holy Spirit. You put yourselves back into darkness and work against the Holy Spirit that leads you into ALL TRUTH! Those who walk in the Holy Spirit have love, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. Lies rob you of love, peace and joy because lies are not of the Holy Spirit.

This is why all those football stadium revivals are a joke as people will say thousands got saved! There may be a few whose hearts earnestly desired the Lord and got saved but NOT from a false message of salvation! They got saved despite the false teaching/preaching because they were earnestly seeking beyond the false preaching seeking the person of Jesus. Faith is individually not corporately. Praise is individually not corporately. Worship is individually not corporately! Moses heard the Lord individually at the Red Sea while people were screaming and shouting at Moses. There is only one source of true corporate praise, worship and teaching. That is everyone in ONE ACCORD assembled unto the Lord Jesus.

The church is not a hospital for the sick, afflicted, spiritually wounded and the like. It is a sanctuary for the redeemed in one accord assembled to the Lord in Spirit and Truth. Read Jude! I tell you if we lived under the Old Testament Law there sure would be a lot of people dropping dead in the doorway of the sanctuary.

You will not get saved by putting faith in anyone other than Jesus. This means you are accountable for your own salvation and cannot blame your pastor, family, friends or brethren for losing your salvation at the Judgment Seat of Christ Jesus. So it is your choice to believe lies and become deceived. How do you know TRUTH from Error or LIES and deceit by The Holy Spirit. If you neglect intimacy with the Holy Spirit you are not growing in the love of God!

Godly sorrow and repentance come first not a foolish statement “wonderful plan for your life”. In fact you don’t even know what the plan of God is so you make a “blanket statement” leaving it up to the lost soul you are trying to make a false convert of. Jesus told Paul that he would suffer for His namesake. Suffering and brokenness is the foundation of true spiritual growth and that is why very few are willing to go through that process. You have free will and can walk away from faith or you can press in and grow in the Lord being more and more created in His image and likeness.

The point is that you “confess” which is a statement of verbal belief of their need for mercy, forgiveness, grace and redemption by the life, death and resurrection of Christ Jesus. Cleansed by His blood and saved by His grace! Believing in your heart means your statement of confessing with your mouth bears witness with your heart and soul! How do you witness without the gospel of salvation? If your gospel and personal witness is wrong the salvation will likely be wrong! Stop trying to create someone in your image and calling that the image of Christ Jesus.

We are to preach the gospel of reconciliation and save souls, not hearts! We are called to save souls! The holy Spirit dwells in your soul not your heart or mind! This is why people do not understand true spiritual warfare. What makes up the soul is the heart and mind combined as ONE. What is the Holy Spirit doing when you get a new heart and spirit. The holy spirit takes a position/residency upon your soul, not the complete soul. It is a mustard seed of the Holy Spirit! We are called to grow in Spirit and Truth which is the very person of Jesus.

John 14:6–7 (NKJV)

6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

7 “If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.”

1 Corinthians 3:6–17 (NKJV)

6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase. 7 So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase. 8 Now he who plants and he who waters are one, and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor.

9 For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, you are God’s building. 10 According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it. 11 For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. 12 Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, 13 each one’s work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one’s work, of what sort it is. 14 If anyone’s work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward. 15 If anyone’s work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.

16 Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? 17 If anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are.

There was a time when I really enjoyed going out and doing prophetic evangelism and witnessing to people. When they encountered the Lord they would ask what church I belonged to and I would tell them it is not about a church building. I would tell them Jesus just ministered to you here and now and you were not in a church building. It is an earthly mind statement to represent a church when you called to represent the Kingdom and Christ Jesus. I haven’t found a church that preaches sound doctrine since shortly after I got saved. I understand people in the pews having difficulties but when the leadership has another gospel and preaches things contrary to Spirit and Truth and won’t allow correction it’s time to leave.

When you get born again a “portion/measure” of the Holy Spirit is place within your soul. It is up to you to foster and grow that mustard seed. You are to fall deeper and deeper in love with the Lord! As the heart gives life to the body! Your mind does not give life to the body, it controls the body.

Proverbs 23:7 (NKJV)

7 For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.

“Eat and drink!” he says to you,

But his heart is not with you.

Where does thought begin, it begins in the mind. Where are those thoughts rooted, in the heart. So the end product is the heart, mind, and soul the three stand cord of faith and belief. You can also use this for love, trust and faith a 3 strand cord.

Ecclesiastes 4:12 (NKJV)

12 Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him.

And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

Proverbs 18:24 (NKJV)

24 A man who has friends must himself be friendly,

But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

That is why Paul said have this mind in you which is Christ Jesus. That is why we all need to be washed by the Word in Spirit and Truth in our minds and hearts. When you love the Lord from your heart and soul/spirit you can more easily cast down “strongholds of your imagination” and lies and deceit. If someone called your friend bad names to you, would you go by what the person spoke about them or by your own personal relationship with that friend.

The renewing of your mind is a manifestation from the soul/spirit and heart together as ONE! Being a lover of Spirit and Truth sanctifies your mind! You must be lovers of the Truth! No one preaches on the true fear of the Lord because they do not understand or perhaps only confess the Lord with their lips! The fear of the Lord is in DIRECT EQUAL MEASURE with your love for the Lord. You fear eternal separation thus you fear LOSING salvation from the Lord! You fear doing anything against the Lord because you have tasted the heavenly gift of the Holy Spirit. This is the beginning of Wisdom which is the godly love and fear of the Lord. Your revelations of Christ are received in direct proportion for your love of God. Your love of God is tested over and over as you increase in the Lord. Where much is given much is required! Complete and absolute surrender to the Lord.

Hebrews 6:1–8 (NKJV)

The Peril of Not Progressing

6 Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, 2 of the doctrine of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. 3 And this we will do if God permits.

4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 6 if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.

7 For the earth which drinks in the rain that often comes upon it, and bears herbs useful for those by whom it is cultivated, receives blessing from God; 8 but if it bears thorns and briers, it is rejected and near to being cursed, whose end is to be burned.

How is love reciprocated to Jesus? Spirit to Spirit! Jesus will only receive Spirit and Truth Jesus will not empower a lie as that is the works of Satan. When the Holy Spirit comes into you as a born again Christian you received the “mustard seed” of Spirit placed in you. Why do I say the mustard seed is Spirit because you need the “foundation” of Christ Jesus established in you and the mustard seed is the Holy Spirit.

There is scripture to back this up when Paul said the church was not mature and they were like babes that need milk and not solid food. They had a mustard seed of the Holy Spirit but were not cultivating the mustard seed to grow!

1 Corinthians 3:1–4 (NKJV)

Sectarianism is Carnal

3 And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ. 2 I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able; 3 for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men? 4 For when one says, “I am of Paul,” and another, “I am of Apollos,” are you not carnal?

Jesus is Spirit and Truth. When you allow the mustard seed of the Holy Spirit to convict your soul from darkness which is “thoughts/beliefs, lies, deceit, false doctrine, etc.” that are in your soul that is the process of sanctification. You are getting a renewed mind and heart fortified by Spirit and Truth, not the preaching or teachings of men! Lies of darkness are being broken and Spirit and Truth are growing within you. What is amazing that “knowing” what is Spirit and Truth now begins to replace, fortify and strengthen faith because Spiritual Revelations are eternally a part of you now and dwell in your soul! So your heart and mind are being sanctified by Spirit and Truth. Every lie spoken to you that you believe reverses the process and wars against the Holy Spirit.

Matthew 22:37–38 (NKJV)

37 Jesus said to him, “ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and great commandment.

This is why we need to return to our first love. This is why Jesus said the first commandment was to love the Lord with all your heart, soul and mind. If you have read my post on the mark of the beast you would know spiritually the number 6, 6, 6 is a number of a man which consists of your heart, mind and soul! Man was created on the sixth day and those three attributes of creation are the number of a man.

There is no regeneration of the heart and mind without the soul of a man! Faith is believing in your mind which takes “root” in your heart entering the soul of the man. Faith comes by hearing not by inviting Jesus into your heart.

Jeremiah 51:20 (NKJV)

20 “You are My battle-ax and weapons of war:

For with you I will break the nation in pieces;

With you I will destroy kingdoms;

You have a prophet calling the Word of God his battle-ax! That is what the indwelling Holy Spirit does to your heart and soul. It seeks out darkness and deception and makes war against it until sanctification is completed within you. You reverse the process by believing lies and deception from false prophets and alleged brethren who are not of the Lord Jesus.

Colossians 2:6–10 (NKJV)

6 As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, 7 rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.

8 Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. 9 For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; 10 and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power.

“He who dwells” is not just the heart or just the mind it is the combination of both in unison and fullness of the soul! Psalm 91 will not apply to you if you do not fulfill the very first line of the Psalm. They will be just words with no power to life. Do you see why faith is so critical and having understanding of manifesting (mind & heart combined) true faith from within your soul.

What should be easy such as witnessing/evangelizing has been complicated and distorted by “WORKS” of the flesh. It is like trying to persuade someone into believing rather than revealing Christ Jesus in the Spirit revealing/manifesting real spiritual fruit! If you walked in the spirit they would be convicted automatically and they would either repent when spoken to or walk away. When you walk in the Spirit you represent all of the virtues of Jesus so it is not only conviction but love, grace, mercy, righteousness, etc. So while the Spirit convicts reconciliation exists at the same time. You don’t do the work the Holy Spirit does. Spirit comes from your soul. As a man speaks so is his heart. Mind and heart as one coming from his soul. This is why spiritual warfare is so misunderstood.

Upon the born again experience you receive a NEW HEART and a NEW SPIRIT. They are uniquely different for a purpose. They are two that need to become one in your soul! When you crucify your “soul” unto Christ you are perfected in love and thought/mind. The mind and heart create the soul.

When Job’s friends accused Job of sin because of Job’s suffering they were fleshly/carnally evaluating Job’s heart by his sufferings! They had no revelation Job’s soul where the Spirit dwells! The flesh/body will not live without a heart or mind but the soul is eternal. So the soul determines your eternal fate which is the completion of the image and likeness of Christ Jesus formed within you.

We are saving souls. That is why when Paul says the heart of many will wax cold Paul is referring to the Spirit of God which is the soul of a man. The heart is a reflection of the soul! That is why I can honestly tell you that with the GREAT DECEPTION there are people in churches/assemblies that sing to the Devil their Lord believing they are worshiping Jesus! They are not! They confess Jesus with their lips but their heart and soul are far from Him. It is all about the soul.

1 Corinthians 2:15–16 (NKJV)

15 But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. 16 For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.

The fruit of the spirit is the combined manifestation of the soul by the response of the heart and mind together!

This is why the spirit bears witness that we are children of God. It comes from the soul not the mind or heart. Spirit to spirit! A man must be born of Spirit. God is a spirit not a heart of human flesh. The mind and heart can “play tricks” on our thoughts and beliefs thus affecting our souls that are spirit!

You get a measure of the Spirit when you are born again and you must let that portion of the Holy Spirit grow by “crucifying” the remainder of your old nature in your soul. This is a very hard process and takes a continued path of Spirit and Grace unto complete sanctification. Your free will which is your soul is at total opposition to the Holy Spirit. THIS IS YOUR GREAT TRIBULATION which is why Jesus said even now there is great tribulation in the world. Tribulation is spiritual that manifest physical. What we seeon earth is what is happening in the heavenly realm. Just like Daniel with te prince of Persia! Jesus in NOT only referring to the natural world of creation but the things of this world in your soul. Adam through the fall was to toil as Adam would “eat” the dust of the earth where the serpent was to roam the earth on his belly consuming/eating the dust of the earth. Adam went back to how he was created WITHOUT the breath of life as Adam was created from the dust of the earth! Adam was physically alive but spiritually dead. Your tribulation is not my same tribulation but the process is one of the same. You will have to “die to self” by submitting to the Holy Spirit every day to obtain crucifixion of your soul. PAUL DIED DAILY! Paul is tell us the process he went through to obtain and boldly proclaim Galatians 2:20 & 6:14. That is what every born again person is to achieve before they become a “chaste virgin”. Your pastors and prophets speak nothing about this because they speak falsely that you do not need sanctification/holiness that you already have it by the Holy Spirit. That is a lie. Sanctification is taken out of context by these false prophets as sanctification means “set apart” in this world but no longer of this world. That does NOT mean your soul does not have the things of this world still in it.

Genesis 3:17–19 (NKJV)

17 Then to Adam He said, “Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it’:

“Cursed is the ground for your sake;

In toil you shall eat of it

All the days of your life.

18 Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you,

And you shall eat the herb of the field.

19 In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread

Till you return to the ground,

For out of it you were taken;

For dust you are,

And to dust you shall return.”

What “bread” mean in line 19. Bread is “seeds/words” of the serpent. That is what is meant by Satan has blinded the whole world by his “seed/words”. Even now I see another scripture that reflects Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. That is where the Son of Man and Son of God were completely separated as the soul of the man (Son of Man) was crucified before the cross of Calvary! NOT MY WILL. Jesus sweat blood! When Jesus sweat blood He was referring to the cup of wrath and sin. Jesus was called to die for our sin. The sweat was as the first Adam eating/partaking of “seeds/words of sin”. Whoever saves his life shall lose it but whoever loses his life shall gain it in everlasting life. The once saved always saved is total rebellion against the Holy Spirit which is supposed to complete the process of crucifixion. Once saved always saved is the vernacular of the serpent in the garden “surely you will not die”.

Galatians 5:17–18 (NKJV)

17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.

I have written about Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane and how it was the separation and “death” of the soul of a man the Son of Man so that the Son of God could fully rule and have complete dominion/power/authority over the soul. How do we know this is what happened and the significance of this event! Jesus sweat drops of blood and the Holy Spirit is NOT FLESH AND BLOOD. Even greater what were the disciples doing, sleeping! Many are sleeping/dying as the bible often refers to sleep as death! They were not paying attention to Jesus when Jesus asked them to stand guard! They were thus denying the affect of the work of the cross within them.

The disciples were not being diligent against the adversary who comes to kill, steal and destroy. They were asleep!

1 Peter 5:8 (NKJV)

8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

Matthew 10:16–25 (NKJV)

16 “Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves. 17 But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils and scourge you in their synagogues. 18 You will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles. 19 But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how or what you should speak. For it will be given to you in that hour what you should speak; 20 for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.

21 “Now brother will deliver up brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death. 22 And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved. 23 When they persecute you in this city, flee to another. For assuredly, I say to you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes.

24 “A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master. 25 It is enough for a disciple that he be like his teacher, and a servant like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more will they call those of his household!

In line 21 stop thinking about only your natural family but also a spiritual family. Brother against brother Judas against Jesus, Pastor/Father his child, children a fallen saint against spiritual parents. Do you see the effect of sitting in a synagogue of Satan which is the vast majority of the churches today with false prophets and “converts”/ “saints”.

Matthew 12:46–50 (NKJV)

Jesus and the True Brethren

Mark 3:31–35

46 While He was still talking to the multitudes, behold, His mother and brothers stood outside, seeking to speak with Him. 47 Then one said to Him, “Look, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, seeking to speak with You.”

48 But He answered and said to the one who told Him, “Who is My mother and who are My brothers?” 49 And He stretched out His hand toward His disciples and said, “Here are My mother and My brothers! 50 For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother.”

The disciples did not “stand watch” when Jesus was in the Garden of Gethsemane. They did not obey the Lord, the spirit is willing but the flesh weak. They had not yet received the Holy Spirit which NEVER sleeps. This is what is not preached today as if you do not complete the death of your own soul by the power of the Holy Spirit you will be a foolish virgin. Why was there 5 wise and 5 foolish? Five is the number of grace and the foolish did not use the grace given them wisely! They still had the love of the world in their soul. That is why the five wise virgins said go out the market and purchase your oil. You can’t do that it comes from the LORD. Ask yourself if the Lord wishes no man would perish why is your false prophet not teaching you these things! Who is he representing, it is NOT the Lord Jesus!

Matthew 26:38–46 (NKJV)

38 Then He said to them, “My soul (heart and mind) is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here and watch with Me.”

39 He went a little farther and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, “O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will.”

40 Then He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, “What! Could you not watch with Me one hour? 41 Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

42 Again, a second time, He went away and prayed, saying, “O My Father, if this cup cannot pass away from Me unless I drink it, Your will be done.” 43 And He came and found them asleep again, for their eyes were heavy.

44 So He left them, went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words. 45 Then He came to His disciples and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners. 46 Rise, let us be going. See, My betrayer is at hand.”

I know you may think I am making accusations but I am talking Spirit and Truth just as Jesus did above. MY SOUL is exceedingly sorrowful watching the saints get spiritual marytered and dying in the churches of today. Yet the deception of once saved always saved has lulled them into sleep/death. They have not loved the truth and have been given over to a spirit of delusion making the lies to be believed as truth and will have no part in eternal life. Examine your own soul now! Repent and ask for mercy as the cross has become of no effect in their spiritual lives.

John 14:1 (NKJV)

Christ Comforts His Disciples

14 “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me.

James 1:2–8 (NKJV)

Profiting from Trials

2 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 4 But let patience (heart manifestation) have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, (mind/thoughts) let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. 6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

We receive a new heart to replace the heart of stone! When the 10 commandments were written on tablets of stone that is a reflection of a human heart of stone! When the Pharisees stoned people that was a reflection of their hearts which comes from the soul/spirit. They had hearts of stone. When Jesus wrote with His finger in the sand he was symbolically writing the law as He did on the tablets of stone for Moses. The Pharisees were legalistic as they followed Moses. The Pharisees representing the kingdom of this world and god of this world and Jesus’ side was the representation of the Kingdom of heaven in Jesus. Remember man was created from the dust of the earth! Old creation without the life of Christ Jesus. Jesus was telling them that they had NO PART in eternal life! They had crossed the line! Read my post: https://abidingbread.com/2025/06/07/jesus-verses-the-pharisees/

 

The kingdom of the earth belonged to Satan and Jesus told the Pharisees they were of their father the devil. That is a kingdom! The Kingdom of Heaven was in Jesus! The line was the demarcation separating kingdoms and the Pharisees had crossed the line which was the point of no return. Scripture tells us this. Remember the Pharisees were about to stone the adulterous woman. There can be either “spiritual adultery” or “physical adultery” but it was spiritual adultery just as EVE committed spiritual adultery in the Garden. Sin is spiritual adultery! You have partaken in the “seeds/words” of the serpent as truth. That is what Jesus was addressing! The “woman” represents the church! Your false prophet in your pulpit is having you commit spiritual adultery, he is a prophet of Jezebel in Revelations 2! The adulterous woman!

1 John 1:8–10 (NKJV)

8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.

The Pharisees were never going to be able to CROSSING OVER AND THROUGH THE VEIL WHICH IS THE PERSON CHRIST JESUS. No one can get to the Father except through the Son. They would eventually have Jesus crucified. We know they denied Jesus as the Christ/Messiah to His face and anyone who denies that Jesus came in the flesh is of Antichrist! Even then there were many Antichrists!

John 2:1–10 (NKJV)

Christ Changes Water to Wine

2 On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. 2 Now both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding. 3 And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, “They have no wine.”

4 Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does your concern have to do with Me? My hour has not yet come.”

5 His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.” (total submission)

6 Now there were set there six waterpots of stone, according to the manner of purification of the Jews, containing twenty or thirty gallons apiece. 7 Jesus said to them, “Fill the waterpots with water.” And they filled them up to the brim.(which would be to come the fullness of the Holy Spirit by the blood covenant of marriage) 8 And He said to them, “Draw some out now, and take it to the master of the feast.” (Master is the Father in heaven. Are you your own master or is Christ Jesus your master/Lord) And they took it. 9 When the master of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom. 10 And he said to him, “Every man at the beginning sets out the good wine, and when the guests have well drunk, then the inferior. You have kept the good wine until now!”

The third day represented the death and resurrection which is why Jesus said his time had not yet come. The six waterpots of stone is the number of man on the 6th day of creation. So the water turning into wine was the new blood covenant of the Sacrificial Lamb Christ Jesus for the redemption/reconciliation of man. NOW PAY ATTENTION TO THE BRIDEGROOM! We (a saint/disciple) put out the best and get them drunk then put out the inferior or “cheap wine”. This refers to OUR relationship to Jesus after being born again. It is the backsliding nature of humanity of the fall. Having tasted and seen the heavenly gift and falling away from our love of Christ Jesus. You can fall away from salvation! If you have partaken in the NEW COVENANT you have been born again BUT you can still fall away.

The master is the Father in Heaven because Jesus is the bridegroom! Jesus and the Father are one but you can not get to the Father without Jesus. There is only one way to the Father, Christ Jesus.

Why does a person bleed when they are cut or wounded? Because the heart pumps blood! If your heart waxes cold it is solid like a candle as the fire of the Holy Spirit has gone out! That is what we read in Revelations! The seven candlesticks is referencing the HEART of men/women. Now where is the manifestation of power revealed of the Holy Spirit revealed and manifested? It is in the Blood! Your blood is where the LIGHT OF GOD is displayed in power and glorification. Blood goes through your whole body! Blood gives life to the flesh. Thus your lamp must be filled with oil or it will not radiate the fullness of the glory of God. We go from glory to glory which is an increase of the HOLINESS of God by the sanctification work of the Holy Spirit.

The human blood is made from light or the absence of light which is darkness. When you cut yourself and bleed your blood changes color. The blood is exposed to the “earth/air” who is the prince and power of the air? This brings us back to the virgin birth of Jesus. There was no male sperm so no X,Y chromosomes. So how was Jesus born a man? By the Spirit and Light of the Father! The light of God is in the blood! Think of the mount of transfiguration! Jesus had not yet died and resurrected or ascended to heaven yet. Jesus revealed what a Son of God truly is! FULL OF LIGHT AND GLORY. Stop waiting for your heavenly body as you can have a body full of the Glory of God now, IT WILL COST YOU YOUR LIFE DYING TO YOURSELF!

Knowing that the blood is the “source of life” and you could “bleed to death” why are there vaccines, viruses, cancer, etc. It is the works of the devil through humanity that do this. Satan is trying to kill the saints through alterations of the human body against the Father’s original created state of being. The Covid vaccine is killing people because of DNA altering. It is a slow process but many people have died or gotten so sick they can no longer take personal care of themselves. Why have all the foods been subjected to GMO and altered so they no longer “have seeds” to create a harvest.

My point goes back to the very beginning a false witness has a different gospel and a different Jesus so it produces a false convert! Instead of revealing Christ by the Holy Spirit they present the image of themselves which is of the Devil! That is what Jesus told the Pharisees when He told them they search for on “convert” and make them twice the child of the devil that they are! YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW! IF YOU SO SATAN YOU REAP SATAN. IF YOU SO FALSE DOCTRINES OF DEMONS YOU CREATE FOLLOWERS OF DOCTRINES OF DEMONS.

If the Pharisees were doing this it was a “form of legalistic witnessing” which is works of the flesh! Works of the flesh is the manifestation of the Devil through the fallen nature! You are of your father the devil.

How did the serpent present the “seeds/fruit” to the WOMAN. YES IT WAS THE WOMAN WHO WAS TO BEAR HER OFFSPRING THE CHILDREN OF GOD!

Genesis 3:4–6 (KJV 1900)

4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: 5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. 6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.

This is what the false prophets do also. They present evil “seeds/words” masquerading as spirit and truth. Even when they use their own intellect which is what they learned in seminary, churches, false brethren, etc. it is NOT INSPIRED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT.

1 Corinthians 3:19–23 (KJV 1900)

19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness. 20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain. 21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours; 22 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours; 23 And ye are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s.

We are witnessing the Great Apostasy in such profoundness that saints that did not the FULLNESS OF SPIRIT AND TRUTH have already been given over to a spirit of delusion which renders a reprobate and not means of reconcilation with the Lord. The spiritual battle has never changed from the days of the Incarnate Christ Jesus the battle is a truly false saints/converts verses true saints/converts. This is the battle within the assembly and throughout the world.

If what you have read bears witness to you about the false prophet in your church. GET OUT FROM AMONG THEM AND BE SEPARATE. Revelation 18 is speaking to the church who are/were the redeemed!

Revelation 18:1–8 (KJV 1900)

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.

I realize that at times I kept reciting the same scriptures but I felt that to be necessary as the Holy Spirit lead me to do that. I hope this posting has witnessed to the remnant that you must leave Mystery Babylon the Harlot church. When you come out do not look or turn back or you may become a pillar of salt!

1 Corinthians 2:1–5 (KJV 1900)

And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 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: 5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

SHEEPLE PAY TITHES BUT DISCIPLES OFFER THEMSELVES TO THE LORD

SHEEPLE PAY TITHES BUT DISCIPLES OFFER THEMSELVES TO THE LORD

As with any posting from anyone I do my best to try to communicate what is on my heart the best that I can. Please take all matters to the Lord in prayer. It is NOT my will that anyone be deceived. The enemy is after all of us, including me! I pray the Holy Spirit bears witness to all of you. If not then it could be for a different time in your walk with the Lord. DO NOT ACCEPT WHAT THE HOLY SPIRIT DOES NOT REVEAL BUT PRAY INTO IT. God bless the saints of the Lord and may the fullness of His love and spirit dwell and manifest richly within you.

This what I heard today in the Spirit of the Lord. “Sheeple pay tithes but disciples offer themselves”! This goes all the way back to Cain and Abel and is the same that is going on today! Oh how the people assemble together yet never offer make a true offering to the Lord. They sing songs of praise as an “enticement” to get God to do something. It is as if corporate singing will bring in the presence of God. I have only been in ONE service since saved where the saints had true worship and the saints from heaven entered in with us as I could see them entering in. I kept silent but the prophet who was holding the service paused the service for a moment and said we will not be speaking at this time as a “cloud of witness” has joined us and the Lord can minister as He wishes. Let us continue to worship the Lord.

Genesis 4:1–15 (NKJV)

Cain Murders Abel

4 Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, and said, “I have acquired a man from the Lord.” 2 Then she bore again, this time his brother Abel.

The “natural” order of physical/worldly inheritance would be to the oldest first male child. Thus Eve said that Cain being the oldest “was of the Lord”.

This is the foundation of what will become jealousy leading to murder! Now think of Jesse, David’s father NOT considering David to be King among Davids older brothers!

Now Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.

Abel was a keeper of sheep just as David while Cain was fulfilling the curse of his earthly father! It will always be spirit manifesting in a man/woman that causes outward manifestation of “fruit”.

3 And in the process of time it came to pass that Cain brought an offering of the fruit of the ground to the Lord. 4 Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat. And the Lord respected Abel and his offering, 5 but He did not respect Cain and his offering. And Cain was very angry, and his countenance fell.

Fruit is not from living spirit has no form of life. Fruit from a physical tree is for “reproduction” and it can only reproduce what it is in its original “state of being”. That is the importance of true sacrifice and worship. That is why Jesus told the woman at the well the day had come to worship in spirit and truth.

6 So the Lord said to Cain, “Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? 7 If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.”

Galatians 2:29 & 6:14 come to mind as well as the “father of faith, Abraham” with a demonstration of faith, trust and obedience to the Lord.

8 Now Cain talked with Abel his brother; and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother and killed him.

The field represents the earth as the earth after the fall became the “valley of the shadow of death”. The prince and power of the air was Lucifer/Satan who had dominion over the earth because of the fall of Cain’s father Adam.

Thus “who is your father”? Are you of the devil or of the Lord being born again. What does Satan want to do, kill the saints! He doesn’t need to kill his own. What deceived Christians do not discern or understand Satan has been martyring the saints from the beginning of time! Spiritual martyrdom is death. It is appointed to all men to the first death, the second death will not happen to a saint if they contend for the faith and love the Lord with all of their heart, mind and soul. The anger reached the place of committing murder which was the outward manifestation of the spirit within Cain.

9 Then the Lord said to Cain, “Where is Abel your brother?”

He said, “I do not know. Am I my brother’s keeper?”

The point I want to make here is that Abel was not of the “spiritual brethren” that Cain was so there was a spiritual not a physical difference in “brethren”. Too many saints are sitting with the false brethren! Spiritually they are slowly sucking the spiritual life from you! Yet they are your natural/physical brethren.

10 And He said, “What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood cries out to Me from the ground. 11 So now you are cursed from the earth, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand. 12 When you till the ground, it shall no longer yield its strength to you. A fugitive and a vagabond you shall be on the earth.”

How can a voice come from blood? This is not preached much or even songs sung about the Blood of Jesus. The power is in the blood! Why because of the Lamb slain before the foundation of the world who did NOT have human DNA from a human man! There was no sperm so no XY chromosomes were conceived! A virgin birth was conceived. Mary was filled with the Spirit because Jesus dwelled within her! John the Baptist was filled with the Spirit because of the Holy Spirit healed the womb of Elizabeth. That is why John in the womb knew Jesus in the womb of Mary, spirit to spirit.

13 And Cain said to the Lord, “My punishment is greater than I can bear! 14 Surely You have driven me out this day from the face of the ground; I shall be hidden from Your face; I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond on the earth, and it will happen that anyone who finds me will kill me.”

15 And the Lord said to him, “Therefore, whoever kills Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold.” And the Lord set a mark on Cain, lest anyone finding him should kill him.

The mark was not a physical mark it is a spiritual mark.

Jesus told the woman at the well the day is coming and is here now that my people will worship in spirit and truth.

Personally speaking I very rarely have put a tithe in the offering. The Lord would highlight a TRUE saint in need and I would tithe to the saint directly not the ministry! You are often giving your tithe to “Cain” thinking you are giving it to “Abel”. Imagine all of the money that was given to Cain that should have gone Abel!

Hebrews 11:4–7 (NKJV)

Faith at the Dawn of History

4 By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts; and through it he being dead still speaks.

The blood of Jesus will never loose it’s power even from the dust of the earth innocent blood cries out for the 2nd coming of Christ Jesus.

5 By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, “and was not found, because God had taken him”; for before he was taken he had this testimony, that he pleased God. 6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

7 By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.

Today this is the problem from the beginning of time which will continue to reveal the motives, intents and spirits in tithing. Ananias had a tithe and look what happened to Ananias. If you are giving yourself as a sacrificial “tithe” you are presenting the flesh and earthly tithe! A person that is NOT born again can sing praises but they can not worship in HOLINESS because that comes from the spirit within. The Lord will only receive holiness so you must be born again and worship in Spirit and Truth. You can’t “market” the Holy Spirit.

Luke 19:45–48 (NKJV)

Cleansing the Temple

Matt. 21:12, 13; Mark 11:15–17

45 Then He went into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in it, 46 saying to them, “It is written, ‘My house is a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a ‘den of thieves.’ ”

47 And He was teaching daily in the temple. But the chief priests, the scribes, and the leaders of the people sought to destroy Him, 48 and were unable to do anything; for all the people were very attentive to hear Him.

We should only be tithing to an assembly/brethren of the Lord Jesus and many are tithing to the god of this world which is the spirit of Antichrist in your false prophet/pastor! You are building the wrong kingdom because you do not discern the spirit in the man!

2 Corinthians 5:16 (NKJV)

16 Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him thus no longer.

This is very important as if you do not discern who is in the pulpit you are likely building the kingdom of Antichrist who is masquerading as a minister of righteousness. You are deceived yourself and building the kingdom of the devil.

True pastors and saints, listen close any and all tithes received whether individually or corporately should be sanctified in prayer to remove and “spiritual strings” or “spiritual influences” from inhibiting the edification of the saints. Every offering has a spirit attached. Do you now see the manipulation behind the deceptive prayer over the offering of “giving tithe” it is very often trying to work at your emotions to give what you are unable so they use sowing and reaping out of context to deceive you!

You yourselves are the tithe to the Lord! The church was never called to be a “hospital for the sick” but an inhabitant of the righteous in Christ. If the people today were in the Old Testament they would like be dead upon entering.

I would rather tithe to a saint directly by witness of the Holy Spirit than advance the kingdom of Satan. Use discernment!

Romans 12:1–2 (NKJV)

Living Sacrifices to God

12 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

THE IMAGE OF THE BEAST

THE IMAGE OF THE BEAST

As with any posting from anyone I do my best to try to communicate what is on my heart the best that I can. Please take all matters to the Lord in prayer. It is NOT my will that anyone be deceived. The enemy is after all of us, including me! I pray the Holy Spirit bears witness to all of you. If not then it could be for a different time in your walk with the Lord. DO NOT ACCEPT WHAT THE HOLY SPIRIT DOES NOT REVEAL BUT PRAY INTO IT. God bless the saints of the Lord and may the fullness of His love and spirit dwell and manifest richly within you.

This post will be short as it expounds on the mark of the beast which I revealed in an earlier posting. So just as a reminder I will give the outcome of my expounding on the Word of God from that earlier post. I want to be upfront with all of you. Very few will recognize accept the posts that I have written as they have already been given over to the beast the son of perdition within their hearts. So they are spiritually deaf they do not have ears to hear.

The mark of the beast is the number of a man 6, 6, 6. It is not 666 which is six hundred sixty six. It is the heart, mind and soul of a man from original creation which was Adam. Adam had a mind, heart and soul. By the Wisdom of God there is no physically outward mark that could be manipulated, twisted or produce by an MAN or even Satan!

If you can not discern the spirits as Paul wrote, you will not discern the mark of the beast. The foolishness of man is trying to figure out in the natural/carnal mind what is Spiritual. The Lord did it this way to protect those that are fully in love with Jesus. This is a form of protection for the REMNANT the true children of God. Know that the Lord loves you deeply and do not let your hearts grow weary! Keep the wind of the Holy Spirit keep the fire of the Holy Spirit burning within you! Hallelujah!

Revelation 13:18 (NKJV)

18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.

So if the mark of the beast is the number of a man, and the “son of perdition” will be as a man, the image you will worship is yourselves created in the “image and likeness” of Satan in the body of a man. I explained all of this in my previous writings. I expounded on what really happened in the Garden of Eden. You yourselves have become the fullness of a child of the devil! So you naturally will worship the son of perdition because he comes as god to himself! You yourselves have become your own god!

2 Thessalonians 2:3–4 (NKJV)

3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, 4 who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.

There is no third temple in Jerusalem as that is a sign and wonder of great deception. That is why the Pharisees were so angry! How can this be so that in 3 days he will destroy and rebuild the temple! The temple is the “body of a man”. So the fullness of the image of Christ Jesus and fullness of the Image of the Beast will be in the body of a man and all of humanity. Sons of God Christ Jesus or a child of the devil.

This concludes my writings of the Mark of the Beast post and the Image of the Beast.

2 Timothy 3:1–9 (NKJV)

Perilous Times and Perilous Men

3 But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, 4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! 6 For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, 7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8 Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning the faith; 9 but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, as theirs also was.

What is a true church and assembly, it is a household! Your church is the workings of Satan and because you did not come out from among them and be separate as the Lord instructed you suffer the same judgment of Lot’s wife!

2 Corinthians 6:17–7:1 (NKJV)

17 Therefore

“Come out from among them

And be separate, says the Lord.

Do not touch what is unclean,

And I will receive you.”

18  “I will be a Father to you,

and you shall be My sons and daughters,

says the Lord Almighty.”

7 Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

THE MARK OF THE BEAST

THE MARK OF THE BEAST

As with any posting from anyone I do my best to try to communicate what is on my heart the best that I can. Please take all matters to the Lord in prayer. It is NOT my will that anyone be deceived. The enemy is after all of us, including me! I pray the Holy Spirit bears witness to all of you. If not then it could be for a different time in your walk with the Lord. DO NOT ACCEPT WHAT THE HOLY SPIRIT DOES NOT REVEAL BUT PRAY INTO IT. God bless the saints of the Lord and may the fullness of His love and spirit dwell and manifest richly within you.

It is amazing at the amount of speculation and gossip at what the mark of the beast is. Some say a micro chip, brain implant, bar codes, tattoos or just about any type of symbol or implant. I guess we will know soon enough.  This had me searching scripture and wondering about Satan entering Judas and there was no mark.  Also David vs. Goliath and no mention of a mark.  So I am sharing what I have so far for all of us to seek the Lord.  We know that we are called to discern the spirits so truthfully there should not be a mark necessary if you have spiritual discernment.  So time will tell but I thought I would share my thoughts as we all seek the Lord.  I believe AI will be the backbone of enforcement but it could have something to do with facial recognition and the “eyes” as Jesus said if single are full of light.

If you take the full counsel of the Word of God from Genesis all the way to revelations the Mark of the Beast is spiritually is revealed. That is why the Word of God as it is written is a “mystery”. Why is it a “mystery” you might ask. Plain and simple. It is a mystery to keep you searching but NOT only searching in the Written Word but directly from the Living Word by revelation of the Holy Spirit. Why hasn’t it been revealed by the Spirit earlier in time? The same reason the seals of the Book of Revelation exist. There is no one worthy but Jesus to open the seals! Daniel was told to seal the book for the appropriated time to be revealed.

Jesus has told us all the way from Genesis to Revelations what the spiritual Mark of the Beast is. The reason it is not in plain sight is because you need spiritual eyes and ears to see and hear what the Lord is saying! 

2 Timothy 2:15 (NKJV)

15 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

If you read my blog post David VS, Goliath you would have better insight. What was Goliath called besides a giant! Goliath was called a beast! When David told Saul that he had killed a lion and bear they were “beastly animals” Kings of their domain so to speak! It was considered great courage if you defeated a lion or bear! Some native tribes there initiation of “manhood” was to kill a lion with a spear demonstrating courage! You were not considered a mature man until this was completed and established. You really should read that blog post: https://abidingbread.com/2025/12/02/david-vs-goliath-the-mark-of-the-beast/

Daniel 8:23–27 (NKJV)

23 “And in the latter time of their kingdom,

When the transgressors have reached their fullness,

A king shall arise,

Having fierce features,

Who understands sinister schemes.

24 His power shall be mighty, but not by his own power;

He shall destroy fearfully,

And shall prosper and thrive;

He shall destroy the mighty, and also the holy people.

25 “Through his cunning

He shall cause deceit to prosper under his rule;

And he shall exalt himself in his heart.

He shall destroy many in their prosperity.

He shall even rise against the Prince of princes;

But he shall be broken without human means.

26 “And the vision of the evenings and mornings

Which was told is true;

Therefore seal up the vision,

For it refers to many days in the future.”

27 And I, Daniel, fainted and was sick for days; afterward I arose and went about the king’s business. I was astonished by the vision, but no one understood it.

Those who have an ear to hear what the spirit is saying and eyes (vision as Daniel) will know the mark of the beast that was a “mystery” of the end of the age. That is directly why the beast system is called MYSTERY BABYLON. It WAS called mystery Babylon until the time of the seals being opened by the Lord. As the seals are opened so is the mystery! This teaching here and now is a direct witness to the times we are in and the end of the age!

If you are not walking in the fullness of the Spirit of Truth you will not know the mystery! I will let you read it in Paul’s own writing as Paul unfolds the MYSTERY OF INIQUITY. The mystery was given to Paul because Paul WAS FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT AND NOT A FOOLISH VIRGIN! YOU CAN’T PRESENT WHAT YOU DO NOT HAVE! WE KNOW IN PART AND PROPHECY IN PART! WE HAVE A LOVING GOD THAT WISHES NO HUMAN WOULD PERISH AND TODAY I AM WRITING ABOUT THIS MARK OF THE BEAST AS THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS INSTRUCTED.

2 Corinthians 11:2 (NKJV)

2 For I am jealous for you with godly jealousy. For I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

What is a chaste virgin? Paul tells us directly in two passages of Ephesians. Why Ephesians you might ask? Ephesians is the book of spiritual warfare. It is how we do warfare and how we are prepared for warfare! If you are not a chaste virgin you are not equipped for warfare in the end of the age! You armor is not complete nor sufficient!

Here is the marks of a chaste virgin that is required. The same Apostle that wrote the majority of the New Testament tells us but the Epistles BRING CORRECTION TO THE CHURCH that is why the Apostles and Prophets were murdered just as Jesus was sentenced to be murdered! The church will not tolerate correction! Real apostles and prophets have dusted off their shoes to a stiff necked people!

Matthew 10:14–42 (NKJV)

14 And whoever will not receive you nor hear your words, when you depart from that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet. 15 Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!

16 “Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves. 17 But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils and scourge you in their synagogues. 18 You will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles. 19 But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how or what you should speak. For it will be given to you in that hour what you should speak; 20 for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.

21 “Now brother will deliver up brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death. 22 And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved. 23 When they persecute you in this city, flee to another. For assuredly, I say to you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes.

24 “A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master. 25 It is enough for a disciple that he be like his teacher, and a servant like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more will they call those of his household! 26 Therefore do not fear them. For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known.

27 “Whatever I tell you in the dark, speak in the light; and what you hear in the ear, preach on the housetops. 28 And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. 29 Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will. 30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.

32 “Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven. 33 But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.

34 “Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. 35 For I have come to ‘set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law’; 36 and ‘a man’s enemies will be those of his own household.’ 37 He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. 38 And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. 39 He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it.

40 “He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me. 41 He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet’s reward. And he who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s reward. 42 And whoever gives one of these little ones only a cup of cold water in the name of a disciple, assuredly, I say to you, he shall by no means lose his reward.”

1 Corinthians 2:7–9 (NKJV)

7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, 8 which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

9 But as it is written:

“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,

Nor have entered into the heart of man

The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”

The carnal mind can not understand the MYSTERY AS IT IS HIDDEN WISDOM WHICH WAS ORDAINED BEFORE THE AGES OF GLORY! When was the Lamb of God slain, before the foundation of the earth/world being created! That is part of the mystery! Now let’s read the requirements to be a chaste virgin and at the same time reflect on the 10 virgins at the Wedding Banquet/Ceremony. The wise virgins were FULL WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT WHICH IS THE WORD OF TRUTH! THE FOOLISH VIRGINS WERE NOT! WHAT DID THE SERPENT DO IN THE GARDEN? WHAT DID THE SERPENT SPEAK TO JESUS IN THE WILDERNESS AND WHAT WAS JESUS REPLY!

Here is the requirements to be a chaste virgin! Jesus also told us the requirements needed. I will get to that after I reveal what a completed chaste virgin looks like.

EXAMPLE ONE

Galatians 2:19–3:9 (NKJV)

19 For I through the law died to the law that I might live to God. 20 I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. 21 I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain.”

What was the purpose of the law? To reveal sin and reach the point that you alone could not cleanse yourself of sin and unrighteousness! You needed a Savior! When Paul says he was crucified with Christ he died to the law so the fullness of grace could be established through faith in Jesus. Paul NO LONGER LIVED that is a chaste virgin which represents one attribute of the five WISE virgins being filled with the Spirit of God. If you deny this statement you deny Christ! In Jesus there is NO darkness so if you have darkness/sin you are not in the fullness of Christ Jesus.

What does Jesus tell us in Matthew 24 over and over again? SEE THAT NO ONE DECEIVES YOU! Jesus said IF THERE BE ANY DARKNESS IN YOU HOW GREAT IS THAT DARKNESS.

Darkness is un-crucified flesh NOT SANCTIFIED BY THE TRUTH OF THE WORD and the fallen nature of the Serpent all the way back to the garden. This is what John 1:1 states. John 1:1 is what I say over and over and over. YOU MUST NOT SEPARATE THE WRITTEN WORD FROM THE LIVING WORD CHRIST JESUS. Think Saul of Tarsus vs. Paul of Christ Jesus. Saul was a scholar’s scholar! Saul was master of the Word without Christ Jesus. What was Saul doing back in the days of Saul? Handing over Christians to be stoned to death. Have you read my blog post Saul and the Harlot Church? You really should: https://abidingbread.com/2026/01/02/saul-from-tarsus-and-the-harlot-church-of-revelations/

John 1:1 (NKJV)

The Deity of Christ

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

In Galatians 3 Paul is telling the Galatians they were bewitched which is what happened in the garden when the serpent bewitched eve! The lies and deception were allowed back in which subjected them to the Law which was written for the fallen nature not the resurrected in Christ Jesus. Paul tells them they fell from faith and when you fall from faith you fall from grace.

This is the great Apostasy at the end of the age and the great apostasy comes before the revealing of the Antichrist. You will NOT PURSUE SPIRIT AND TRUTH WITH BELIEVING LIES. Once saved always save is the twisting of surely you will not die! All the way back to the garden! We see it here now. Adam needed faith to believe the Father even when Adam did not completely understand. When you fall from faith your belief is in your ability and not in Christ Jesus. Your ability is the same as Satan saying I will ascend! Who has bewitched you? This puts your right back into the “tree of the knowledge of good and evil”. You do not just fall, you fall into something. The act of falling is not the landing point. If you are not justified by faith then all that remains is the law and the purposes of the law!

This same principle is behind the unbelief which creates the doctrine of the pre-tribulation rapture. That is the doctrine of Babylon and the purpose of the tower of Babylon as “I will ascend to the heavens”. Again I wrote three postings on that you can read. I also wrote about the real events and hidden meanings of what happened in the Garden of Eden. When you fall from faith you embrace the law and the law was written to the “fallen nature of the serpent” which was in us! Read: https://abidingbread.com/2026/01/15/what-really-happened-in-the-garden-of-eden/

As a man believes so he is! So all the way back to the garden is a sign of the beast. I will reveal it more as we go along.

When you partook of the tree of knowledge of good and evil you partook of the “image and likeness” of Satan! This is why Adam and Eve were cast out so sin could not enter into PURE LIGHT or there would be sin in heaven or and in the Father! The FATHER is the tree of life which is the fullness of the “image and likeness” of the Son Christ Jesus. That is why Jesus said IF YOU HAVE SEEN ME YOU HAVE SEEN THE FATHER. IT IS THE TRINITY UNFOLDING AND MANIFEST AMONG THE PEOPLE.

Galatians 3:1–4 (NKJV)

Justification by Faith

3 O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed among you as crucified? 2 This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?—3 Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the flesh? 4 Have you suffered so many things in vain—if indeed it was in vain?

Our sufferings are designed by Jesus to conform us into His “image and likeness” the devil is a tool used to do this! Job’s sufferings were a testimony designed to reveal the end of the age and to reveal Christ Jesus who would suffer our wages of sin. All of the sufferings of Job are a prophetic insight of the end of the age. IT was the friends/brethren that accused of Job of sin! Who is the accuser of the brethren in the spirit? Why did Job lose his family? What did Jesus say about Himself and the purpose of His coming? Jesus did not come to make peace but to create division. Jesus divided what was for him and against him. I truly believe Job’s wife was a Jezebel.

Why do I say that you might ask with so very little scripture about her! I have been subjected to many Jezebels since I was three years of age! How do I know that because it has been revealed to me by the Lord. All those who are called of the Lord suffer martyrdom even as far back as conception! Did Joseph have to move Mary as they wanted to kill Jesus all the way back to the womb! Why do you think there are so many abortions? How many of those aborted babies might have been called by the Lord? Job was a prophetic voice revealing Jesus testimony of Jesus as Job would not deny the Lord even when great suffering was placed upon him. That is exactly what the saints are called to do at the end of the age! When Job’s wife told him to curse God and die that is the same thing Jezebel did in writing AS THE KING to Elijah as Jezebel killed the prophets of God. What loving wife would tell her husband to curse God and die! It was in her heart but remember what the Lord told Satan. You may afflict him and take everything that Job has but do NOT KILL HIM! It was the desire of Job’s wife to kill Him but it was forbidden! So when Job’s wife said curse God and die, how is that different than what Jezebel wrote to Elijah? Let it be done to you as you have done to mine by the end of the day! Now you know! Elijah killed a total of 850 false prophets. That was thousands of years ago. He was outnumbered 850 to 1, how many false prophets are there today?

Genesis 50:20 (NKJV)

20 But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive.

BACK TO GALATIANS

5 Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? 6 just as Abraham “believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” 7 Therefore know that only those who are of faith are sons of Abraham. 8 And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, “In you all the nations shall be blessed.” 9 So then those who are of faith are blessed with believing Abraham.

Without faith we can not please god! That is what prompted me to write a very controversial title blog post called SPIRITUAL HALF BREEDS. Yes the Lord had me write that! I suggest you read it:

https://abidingbread.com/2026/01/04/spiritual-half-breeds/

EXAMPLE TWO OF BEING A CHASTE VIRGIN

Galatians 6:14–15 (NKJV)

14 But God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. 15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but a new creation.

What Paul writes here is the fulfillment of what Galatians 2:20 produced! Dead to the world, the things of the world, the pride of life, lust of the eyes and lust of the flesh. Paul was the living example of a chaste virgin a new creation in Christ in the fullness of the “image and likeness” of the Son of God which is Christ Jesus.  This is why even the demon spoke, Paul I know, Jesus I know but who are you! Jesus and the Father are ONE. That is why the book of Romans is so powerful when Paul expounds on partaking in the death and resurrection! Remember if you are not crucified to the world you are not crucified to Christ! If the love of the world is in you the love of the Father is not! Now let’s see what Jesus tells us on becoming a chaste virgin!

EXAMPLE THREE

John 17:14–19 (NKJV)

14 I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. 15 I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil one. 16 They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. 17 Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth. 18 As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. 19 And for their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified by the truth.

Just as we read in Galatians 3 and the spiritual bewitching of the serpent we read above you are only sanctified by the WORD OF TRUTH and believing any lies that are spoken, preached or prophecy which is NOT SPIRIT AND TRUTH you will NOT BE A CHASTE VIRGIN! Keeping from the evil one references the lies and deceptions of the evil one! If we were removed from the world there would be no living testimony within a “people”. With out the fullness of the Word of God and Living God which are ONE dwelling in you you will not be a chaste virgin. SO IF THE FULLNESS OF THE WRITTEN WORD IS NOT WITHIN YOU THE FULLNESS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IS NOT WITHIN YOU. While every man/woman thinks their wisdom shall sustain them it is total folly! The only way to achieve the fullness of the Written Word is achieved in one way!

John 15:1–11 (NKJV)

The Relationship of Believers to Christ

15 “I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 3 You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. 4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.

5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. 8 By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.

9 “As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. 10 If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love.

11 “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.

Hebrews 8:10 (NKJV)

10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

What type of people dwell in a house the Lord builds? It is the family of God or people that belong to the Lord by salvation and not a land, state or nation! Many are called few are chosen! Does that sound like a land, state or nation? Few are chosen!

2 Corinthians 3:1–3 (NKJV)

Christ’s Epistle

3 Do we begin again to commend ourselves? Or do we need, as some others, epistles of commendation to you or letters of commendation from you? 2 You are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read by all men; 3 clearly you are an epistle of Christ, ministered by us, written not with ink but by the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of flesh, that is, of the heart.

I HOPE YOU ARE BEGINNING TO SEE ALL OF THE FALSE NONSENSE TAKING PLACE WITHIN THE ASSEMBLY OF THE BRETHREN. All the false expounding and teachings of scriptures and that you are not truly receiving SPIRITUAL FOOD! You are babes and not being preached unto maturity because the abundant life is a spiritual life in Christ Jesus. In order to receive in Spirit and Truth you yourself must be born of the spirit. In addition you must NOT remain a babe in Christ and seek to be a chaste virgin with a heart, mind and soul totally given over, sanctified by The Word of Truth by the Spirit of Truth by total surrender and abandonment of your own thoughts, feelings and beliefs. When you obtain the status of a chaste virgin then you will only speak and only do what the Father is doing and speaking just as Jesus did! None of you and all of Jesus.

Revelation 14:1–5 (NKJV)

The Lamb and the 144,000

14 Then I looked, and behold, a Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father’s name written on their foreheads. 2 And I heard a voice from heaven, like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of loud thunder. And I heard the sound of harpists playing their harps. 3 They sang as it were a new song before the throne, before the four living creatures, and the elders; and no one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who were redeemed from the earth. 4 These are the ones who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These were redeemed from among men, being firstfruits to God and to the Lamb. 5

And in their mouth was found no deceit, (lies because it came from the mouth)

for they are without fault before the throne of God.

1 Peter 1:25–2:3 (NKJV)

25 But the word of the Lord endures forever.”

Now this is the word which by the gospel was preached to you.

2 Therefore, laying aside all malice, all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and all evil speaking, 2 as newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby, 3 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious.

How do you know you are listening to the pure Word so that you may grow. It is very simple yet complex at the same time. You must hear the voice of God for yourself and not through anyone else as what they speak must witness in the Holy Spirit within you.  That is why Jesus told HIS disciples if they hear you they have heard ME/Jesus. The Apostles and Prophets spoke the true living Word of God in Spirit and Truth NOT AS PARROTS reciting what they others said, taught or believed! Seminary creates parrots not preachers! The Holy Spirit only comes from one source and it doesn’t require paid tuition! Those that are born again walking by the Spirit of God know when lies, deceit, manipulation and twisting of scripture is being spoken because it stirs up the Holy Spirit with in you that something is not right! Why does it stir up the Holy Spirit because it is NOT OF THE SPIRIT OF GOD.  There are ONLY two primary spirits, Christ and Antichrist!

Acts 16:16–24 (NKJV)

Paul and Silas Imprisoned

16 Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune-telling. 17 This girl followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying, “These men are the servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation.” 18 And this she did for many days.

But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her.” And he came out that very hour. 19 But when her masters saw that their hope of profit was gone, they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them into the marketplace to the authorities.

20 And they brought them to the magistrates, and said, “These men, being Jews, exceedingly trouble our city; 21 and they teach customs which are not lawful for us, being Romans, to receive or observe.” 22 Then the multitude rose up together against them; and the magistrates tore off their clothes and commanded them to be beaten with rods. 23 And when they had laid many stripes on them, they threw them into prison, commanding the jailer to keep them securely. 24 Having received such a charge, he put them into the inner prison and fastened their feet in the stocks.

Paul was greatly annoyed, grieved in the Spirit of The Lord that is what prompted him to cast out the demon. What the woman spoke was true but NOT SPIRIT AND TRUTH! The carnal minded man who does not walk in the Holy Spirit would say “praise the Lord”! But the spiritual man would cast out the demon! It is an “inner witness” not an outward emotion, feeling or belief.

Colossians 3:16–17 (NKJV)

16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. 17 And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.

Are you seeing the mark of the beast as we go forward as I’ve laid almost all of the ground work. Now lets continue.

Matthew 24:36–39 (NKJV)

Illustration of the Days of Noah

Mark 13:32–37; Luke 21:34–36

36 “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. 37 But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

Noah is a precursor to Christ Jesus at the end of this age. Noah was a preacher of righteousness but was denied by those whom he warned. Noah was called, led and followed God and was not established by any seminary or false prophets! Called by God! The whole earth was deceived. People fell from Spirit and Truth (unbelief) and/or denied Spirit and Truth of God’s Word.  The people were not born again as this is before Pentecost,but it takes faith to be saved! They were not saved because they had unbelief!

Genesis 6:1–8 (NKJV)

The Wickedness and Judgment of Man

6 Now it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them, 2 that the sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves of all whom they chose.

3 And the Lord said, “My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, for he is indeed flesh; yet his days shall be one hundred and twenty years.” 4 There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.

5 Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 6 And the Lord was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. 7 So the Lord said, “I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man and beast, creeping thing and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them.” 8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.

This is what the Lord is referring to in Matthew 24 as in the days of NOAH. The intent, thoughts and heart were only evil continually! Think about that! There was nothing within humanity that desired anything good! It is the fullness of evil within humanity! It is the fullness of the tree of knowledge of good and evil developed within you which is the spirit of Antichrist rising throughout the world today. The revival by these false preachers, prophets and apostles is the spirit of Antichrist and too many deceived or professing Christians praise the revival of Antichrist because the have NO SPIRITUAL DISCERNMENT. Again read my post about Jesus and the Pharisees! The blind and deaf are leading the blind and deaf! If you are not “listening/seeking/verifying” by the Holy Spirit you rely on carnal knowledge which is your wisdom and NOT THE WISDOM OF THE LORD.

We are getting close to finishing. I want to reflect on David vs. Goliath as I wrote in my blog post:

https://abidingbread.com/2025/12/02/david-vs-goliath-the-mark-of-the-beast/

The battle of David vs. Goliath is very important and I am working on a second posting which will cover more. What I want to show you is that NOTHING IS CIRCUMSTANTIAL in the Word of God. Everything happens exactly as the Lord wills it to happen. Jesus is in total control.

When David killed Goliath where did the stone land? Why did it strike where it struck Goliath. Surely a greater miracle would have been to go right through the protective armor! See nothing is by chance! Why is Goliath not only referred to as a giant but a beast! How was Goliath conceived physically/spiritually and how does that compare to the virgin birth of Christ! Mary was a chaste virgin that the Holy Spirit conceived Jesus. Jesus could only be fully manifested by a chaste virgin! Are you a chaste virgin so that the fullness of the Spirit of God dwells within you. Is the manifestation of the SONS OF GOD coming forth in these last hours! TIME IS SHORT!

So now that I have revealed all of this let us conclude the number of the beast. It has been clearly defined right in the Word of God! This is not my opinion I am revealing to you it is Spirit and Truth.

Revelation 13:16–18 (NKJV)

16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.

The mark of the beast is not natural it is spiritual! That is why there is hardly any true spiritual discernment. If you can’t discern the demonic spirits do you really have the Holy Spirit? Is Jesus not omniscience and all knowing.

When a pastor says right from the pulpit that ONLY THE LORD KNOWS THE HEART that is from SATAN! Why because it is a partial truth and a partial truth is a lie! Jesus reveals the heart to those that belong to him. Jesus revealed the hearts of everyone that came to him! If Jesus reveals your heart to you why can’t Jesus reveal the hearts of others to you! Do we preach to intellect or to the heart! What was the very first thing Jesus revealed to Saul from Tarsus who was an ambassador of the Harlot Church! Jesus said Saul why do you persecute me! That pierced the heart of Saul as Saul replied who are you LORD! It is the Lord by the Power of The Holy Spirit that convicts the human heart and soul!

Now with all of the foolishness about micro chips, tattoos, bar codes, vaccines and about anything else you can pull out of your “junk drawer” let’s get down to real solid spiritual food!

The days of Noah their heart and mind was totally committed to evil and destruction! What does the soul contain which is your very persona and nature of your being? It is made from you heart and mind! What is a man created with? A mind, heart and soul! What are we trying to redeem, souls! The number of a man is his heart, mind and soul! That is the number of the beast! As I have said with absolutely no replies online what is the only thing in common with the kingdom of light and the kingdom of darkness. The Lord wants to restore us in His “image and likeness” the tree of life from the garden and Satan wants to create in us his “image and likeness” from the tree of the knowledge of good an evil. How is a man created and what is the number of that man, 666!

The number 666 is the human mind, heart and soul of a man! Free will is of the soul! That is what the Garden of Gethsemane is all about! It is the crucifixion of the soul which the essence of a man! What happened was the separation of the SON OF MAN AND THE SON OF GOD! This might sound crazy to you but most of the professing Christians worship the Son of Man and NOT the Son of God. When you say that the fullness of Jesus was a Jew you are worshiping the Son of Man! Who is NOT DIVINE! I can’t say this enough!

Who created the world, who created a man. Don’t tell me it was a Jew! When Moses asked the Lord whom shall I say sent me the Lord replied tell them “I AM”! When you worship a religion/denomination, land, state or country are you really worshiping the Lord? The true Israel is a people redeemed by the blood of Christ and Born of His Spirit! How do we know this, we will expound more. Just think about this, flesh and blood will not inherit the Kingdom of Heaven. A man must be born again to even see the Kingdom! Jesus didn’t come to redeem a parcel of land as all the earth will be burned in fire! Again read my post on Jesus vs. the Pharisees. Many are called but few are chosen! This applies to the nation/state of Israel not all will be chosen even though all were called! This applies to the whole world and as there is no longer Jew or Greek (Gentiles) but only those in Christ Jesus.

Matthew 22:37–38 (NKJV)

37 Jesus said to him, “ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and great commandment.

The Lord by HIS divine wisdom does NOT allow any human to calculate this number because it must be spiritually revealed! IT MUST BE SOMETHING THE DEVIL CAN NOT MIMIC, TWIST OR COUNTERFIT.  That is why the Mark of the Beast is spiritual not physical.  There are only two kingdoms which represent the primary spirits, Christ and Antichrist! The mark of the beast is NOT man made or man applied! It is spiritually discerned!  Anything other than spirit is subject to the fall of man/Satan.  If it were something simple or obvious it would be easily twisted, manipulated and manufactured for greater deception!  There would be the potential for a false witness which kingdom  you belonged to.

So knowing this who do all the fools belong to that say it will be known by a fleshly mark and not by spirit. A foolish generation that seeks a sign and wonder! Show me a sign because I do NOT KNOW YOU ARE THE CHRIST JESUS! I NEED THE PHYSICAL SIGN BECAUSE I DO NOT HAVE THE SPIRITUAL DISCERNMENT WITHIN ME. When you spread spiritual gossip you lead the sheep astray. That is why the stone David slung hit Goliath in the forehead were “THE MARK OF THE BEAST” WAS! The right hand signifies the power given unto the beast as Jesus is seated at the right hand of the Father! This has nothing to do with the physical it is TOTALLY AND ABSOLUTELY SPIRITUAL! IN THE LAST DAY YOU WILL EITHER BE A “SON OF GOD” OR A “CHILD/SON OF THE DEVIL” so while you are looking for a physical mark you will not find one!

My personal thought by knowing this revelation is that AI through facial recognition AND/OR fingerprints will enforce the world system and that is already in place waiting to be implemented. The reason I believe this is with all of the “retina” scanning as the “eye” is the gateway to the soul!  I believe it is very possible the “one world government” will implement a “mark” in a form of “allegiance” which is “worship” to a one world government.   I have written before about the “pledge of allegiance” and how that is a masonic oath of Freemasonry.  That shows the USA is not of the True Living God but of Lucifer as god.  So the “mark of the beast” will be no different but on a world wide for of worship to the beast.  I saw a picture of the Prime Ministers podium in the UK and they are going to mandate teh BRIT card and it stands for “BIOMETRIC REGISTRATION IDENTIFICATION TRACKING.  AI be the backbone of enforcement as your facial recognition or fingerprints are already in a database and will be used globally.  When a newborn baby is born in the USA they take a footprint and a thumb print and use it for identification purposes!  IT IS REQUIRED.  So those who take the mark of the beast will have already been given over to the beast system in the heart, mind and soul. 

The weaponry and technologies are inspired by the devil and the fallen angels from Genesis 6.  How is this possible, go all the way back to Genesis 6 when the sons of god had offspring with the daughters of men.  I suggest you read the forbidden book Enoch 1.  Why is it forbidden because it tells you the wisdom and knowledge of the fallen angels gave instructions to men how to build swords and weapons for warfare as well as witchcraft, etc.  It is not in the divine nature to KILL.  How do you think nuclear bombs were made, heck how was COVID created!  By the inspiration of Satan, how was the vaccine for COVID created by the inspiration of Satan!  As I told the doctor of the widow I take care of when they wanted to force the vaccine.  I said COVID was created by man by the inspiration of Satan so I do not trust man inspired by Satan for the CURE.  MY GOD IS ABLE BUT IF HE CHOOSES NOT I WILL STILL NOT BOW TO SATAN!  Think of the fiery furnace once again!  

Matthew 6:22–23 (NKJV)

22  “The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light. 23 But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!

Proverbs 23:7 (NKJV)

7 For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.

“Eat and drink!” he says to you,

But his heart is not with you.

What was going on in the days of Noah, and what was their mind totally give over too?

Genesis 6:5 (NKJV)

5 Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

The thoughts is the mind, then you have the heart and the two comprise the soul! There is your 6, 6, 6! The number of a man totally given over to the indwelling of the Antichrist! Who was hell originally created for, the Devil and his minions!

How do we recognize the Mark of the Beast? Scripture tells us! This is why there is so much hype on the state of Israel because it is the devil working by deception and very few understand because the eyes of their heart are filled with darkness yet they believe they walk in the light of Christ Jesus. Why did Jesus tell the Pharisees they were of the devil? Have you read my blog post of Jesus vs. The Pharisees: https://abidingbread.com/2025/06/07/jesus-verses-the-pharisees/

When you read that post you will understand what is going on through the world! There were two great commissions in operation at the same time. The Pharisees had theirs and Jesus had His! Good verses Evil, two totally different “trees”!

Matthew 7:16–20 (NKJV)

16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them.

Now do you see the mark of the beast and why Satan has blinded the church of today and why there is no spiritual discernment. Why people are still calling good evil and evil good!

See my post on what spiritually happened in the Garden of Eden:https://abidingbread.com/2026/01/15/what-really-happened-in-the-garden-of-eden/

If you can’t discern the spirits you are either fooled into believing you are born again or you have fallen in the Great Apostasy and under the spirit of delusion because you refused to love the Truth and Truth is the person of Christ Jesus. So you allowed Satan to blind you again just as the foolish Galatians!

Either way you believe you are serving Jesus when you are serving Satan! Total and utter deception and destruction. That is why I wrote that Saul from Tarsus was an ambassador of the HARLOT CHURCH WHICH WILL BE ENFORCED THROUGH ALIGNED GOVERNMENTS! WHAT IS THE BIG DEBATE ABOUT ISRAEL TODAY! WHO ARE GOD’S PEOPLE!

1 John 4:1 (NKJV)

4 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

2 Corinthians 5:16 (NKJV)

16 Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him thus no longer.

If you do not know Jesus as the PERSON/CHRIST by HIS SPIRIT you do not belong to Jesus!

John 10:27 (NKJV)

27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.

Matthew 7:15–20 (NKJV)

False and True Teaching

Luke 6:43–45

15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them.

Matthew 7:21–23 (NKJV)

True Way into the Kingdom

Luke 6:46

21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’

Well the mystery of the mark of the beast has been settled. You either know Jesus by HIS SPIRIT or you don’t know Jesus at all! If the Lord does not speak to you then you have either fallen away in the Great Apostasy or you are not born again in Spirit and Truth. You do not have the Holy Spirit.

1 Samuel 16:7 (NKJV)

7 But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”

People are looking for an outward mark of the beast but it is inward and spiritual! The carnal man looks for a carnal reality according to his own intellect but human intellect is far short of the Wisdom of God! Do you have the spirit of wisdom and revelation?

Ephesians 1:17–23 (NKJV)

17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, 18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power 20 which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.

22 And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, 23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

Why does the Book of Revelations specifically say “HE WHO HAS AN EAR, LET HIM HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT IS SAYING TO THE CHURCHES?

Revelation 3:6 (NKJV)

6 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” ’

Hebrews 6:4–6 (NKJV)

4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 6 if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.

I believe this is the condition of the church today as they have fallen from their first love after they were once enlightened, tasted the Holy Spirit and have fallen away from the Lord.

1 Peter 5:8–11 (NKJV)

8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. 9 Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. 10 But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. 11 To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

When you believe in once saved always saved there is no need to contend for the faith, spiritual growth and the pursuit of righteousness and holiness. You have allowed the Devil to repeat the same lie spoken in the Garden with different vernacular. What does Satan do, manipulate, twist and distort the Word of God!

May the saints be blessed, encouraged and victorious in Christ Jesus and may the Lord Jesus get the fullness of HIS inheritance from the finished work of Calvary on the Cross! In parting I leave this final chapter to wrap everything up with a nice bow! I hope and pray that the Spirit of the Living God bears witness to you about this writing as the end of the age and the last hour is about to hit!

John 15:26–16:15 (NKJV)

The Promise of the Holy Spirit

26 “But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me. 27 And you also will bear witness, because you have been with Me from the beginning.

16 “These things I have spoken to you, that you should not be made to stumble. 2 They will put you out of the synagogues; yes, the time is coming that whoever kills you will think that he offers God service. 3 And these things they will do to you because they have not known the Father nor Me. 4 But these things I have told you, that when the time comes, you may remember that I told you of them.

“And these things I did not say to you at the beginning, because I was with you.

5 “But now I go away to Him who sent Me, and none of you asks Me, ‘Where are You going?’ 6 But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart. 7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you. 8 And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 9 of sin, because they do not believe in Me; 10 of righteousness, because I go to My Father and you see Me no more; 11 of judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.

12 “I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. 13 However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. 14 He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you. 15 All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to you.

THAT IS THE BOW I GIFT WRAPPED FOR YOU!

Matthew 22:37 (NKJV)

37 Jesus said to him, “ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’

Philippians 2:5 (NKJV)

The Humbled and Exalted Christ

5 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus,

Romans 8:16 (NKJV)

16 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,

You may ask how or what do you do? How to prepare spiritually perhaps this post will help explain the difference of “swords” between Hebrews 4:12 and Ephesians 6 as you will need the “whole armor” of the Lord! This article should help you understand!

WHAT REALLY HAPPENED IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN

As with any posting from anyone I do my best to try to communicate what is on my heart the best that I can. Please take all matters to the Lord in prayer. It is NOT my will that anyone be deceived. The enemy is after all of us, including me! I pray the Holy Spirit bears witness to all of you. If not then it could be for a different time in your walk with the Lord. DO NOT ACCEPT WHAT THE HOLY SPIRIT DOES NOT REVEAL BUT PRAY INTO IT. God bless the saints of the Lord and may the fullness of His love and spirit dwell and manifest richly within you.

We tend to only embrace the thought of “sin” but we do not completely understand what really took place. How do we get better understanding? We use ALL of the Word of God as the New Testament testifies to the Old Testament and visa versa!

So let’s examine and expound on scripture. I will place my comments between lines of scripture so it’s easier for you to see what is going on here in the Spirit realm. I am sure there is much more than I will reveal but what I am going to focus on is just how subtle and cunning the serpent really was.

Genesis 3:1–24 (NKJV)

The Temptation and Fall of Man

3 Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, “Has God indeed said, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?”

2 And the woman said to the serpent, “We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden; 3 but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not eat it, nor shall you touch it, lest you die.’ ”

4 Then the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. 5 For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”

The very first thing which is not stated is that even Adam and Eve needed faith to believe what they did not totally understand. How do we know this? Well what is death where there never was death before? Adam and Eve had NO first hand witness, personal knowledge or experience of what death was! This statement about death was something they had no knowledge of but that is what the serpent was presenting them! So the serpent attacked them from lack of knowledge. Please reflect on the once saved always saved as that is what the serpent implied by surely you will not die! The Lord tells us that His people perish because of lack of knowledge! This is why the Lord has me to tell people “have you asked the Lord”. With all of the false preaching saying that the Lord only speaks through the Written Word is a lie. How do we know that, the Word was God Breathed! It came from the mouth of God, all of creation was spoken into existence! Our Lord Jesus is ALIVE NOT DEAD and still speaks today! God is the same yesterday, today and forever more.

What was the flood where there was no rain or waters coming up from the ground? You see without faith it is impossible to please the Lord. Notice that is New Testament scripture. Now what is not obvious because of the cunning nature and forked tongue of the serpent deception was easy to be portrayed. What the serpent did was represent himself as God without them even knowing! You see who does Satan desire to be? Satan wants to be God and Satan was representing “self” that is why Jesus tells us to pick up our cross and die to “self” as Satan was representing himself and not the TRUE LIVING GOD. What eyes is the serpent speaking about? Surely Adam and Eve were not blind. The serpent was referring to the “eyes of your heart” as Paul states may the eyes of your heart be enlightened. That statement by Paul is referring to restoration of the TRUE KNOWLEDGE OF CHRIST JESUS. These eyes are spititual! This means the knowledge of the True Living God was removed from Adam and Eve! Thus Satan has blinded the whole earth, new Testament Scripture! Okay, let’s continue. Notice the statement knowing good and evil! Why is good presented first? It is a lie masquerading and disguised as truth. We know from the scriptures that Satan calls good evil and evil good. So by presenting it as good it was actually evil! In addition the Lord Jesus tells us that a good tree can not bare bad fruit and a bad tree can not bare good fruit! Jesus is telling about what happened in the garden! When Jesus was up on the cross and the Father put all the sins of the world upon Jesus what did the cross represent? The cross represented the works from “the tree of the knowledge of good and evil”! Jesus was on that tree destroying the power of that tree! Holiness and righeousness overcame sin as the tree of the knowledge of good and evil represented the “likeness and image” of Satan! That is why Jesus said without holiness it is impossible to see the Lord. The power of that “tree of the knowledge of good and evil” was overpowered rendered ineffective to the Spirit of the Living God! That is why the Holy Spirit departed before the death of Jesus on the cross. Death did not have a hold or power over us any more! A born again child of God can only overcome by the COMPLETION of sanctification by the power of the Holy Spirit. What happened on that tree was absolutely incredible!

Acts 5:30 (NKJV)

30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus whom you murdered by hanging on a tree.

Hebrews 12:14 (NKJV)

14 Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord:

Matthew 7:17–20 (NKJV)

17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them.

Now when you partake of “the tree” you partake in the “image and likeness” of that tree! So that is why Jesus came to restore us into HIS “image and likeness”. You are either a tree of righteousness or a tree of the image and likeness of the devil! That is why Adam and Eve were cast out of the Garden so they could not touch the tree of life. That is also why Jesus told Mary do not touch me I have not ascended.

John 20:17 (NKJV)

17 Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.’ ”

1 Timothy 5:22 (NKJV)

22 Do not lay hands on anyone hastily, nor share in other people’s sins; keep yourself pure.

6 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings.

How do we appear before the Lord according to the New Testament without being born again? In line 7 above it says their eyes were open means their hearts were opened and full of darkness rendering no SPIRITUAL knowledge of the TRUE LIVING GOD CHRIST JESUS. This is why Paul says may the eyes of your heart be enlightened meaning let the light and knowledge of Jesus into your heart. God is a spirit!

Ephesians 1:18 (ESV)

18 having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints,

Hebrews 4:13 (NKJV)

13 And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.

Genesis 3:7 (KJV 1900)

7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.

I purposely added Genesis 3:7 KJV to make a vital point but I will not be expanding on that now. Why do Freemasons wear aprons! They worship Lucifer and the fallen nature of humanity! Why do I hear Christians say it is okay to be a Freemason and a Christian! What fellowship does a Christian have with the unfruitful works of darkness. Some of today’s worldwide ministries are Freemason’s claiming to be Christian organizations! They use outward works to appear fruitful by providing housing/shelter, food and emergency relief. Jesus revealed to the Pharisees that they cleaned the outside of the cup but NOT the inside of the cup! What do we know about a cup? How about the cup of sin, wrath, etc. These false Christians that are Freemason ministries even call for corporate prayer for global peace and repentance. The Lord laughs at this as they mock the Living God as the Lord closes His ears to their prayers! They are not in righteous standing with the Lord! If you are not in right standing with the Lord your prayers will not be answered. It is all a HEART MATTER WHICH IS NOT PREACHED!

Luke 18:9–14 (NKJV)

Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector

9 Also He spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: 10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, ‘God, I thank You that I am not like other men—extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. 12 I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.’ 13 And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me a sinner!’ 14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”

Isaiah 59:1–2 (ESV)

Evil and Oppression

59 Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save,

or his ear dull, that it cannot hear;

2  but your iniquities have made a separation

between you and your God,

and your sins have hidden his face from you

so that he does not hear.

How does Isaiah 59 apply to today’s church! It must apply in significance as we do not truly see much power in the church today. Do not confuse signs and wonders performed by demonic spirits as true manifestations of the Lord Jesus. Pharaoh’s magicians performed signs and wonders.

James 5:16 (KJV 1900)

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.

BACK TO GENESIS

8 And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.

Light penetrates darkness and people do not come to the light.

John 3:19–21 (NKJV)

19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. 21 But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.”

BACK TO GENESIS

9 Then the Lord God called to Adam and said to him, “Where are you?”

10 So he said, “I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.”

11 And He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?”

You are not naked if you are clothed in robes of righteousness, but those are only provided and given by the Lord Jesus! The prodigal son story in Luke.

Hebrews 4:13 (ESV)

13 And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

Luke 15:21–22 (NKJV)

21 And the son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight, and am no longer worthy to be called your son.’

22 “But the father said to his servants, ‘Bring out the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet.

Isaiah 61 (NKJV)

The Good News of Salvation

61 “The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me,

Because the Lord has anointed Me

To preach good tidings to the poor;

He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,

To proclaim liberty to the captives,

And the opening of the prison to those who are bound;

2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord,

And the day of vengeance of our God;

To comfort all who mourn,

3 To console those who mourn in Zion,

To give them beauty for ashes,

The oil of joy for mourning,

The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;

That they may be called trees of righteousness,

The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.”

4 And they shall rebuild the old ruins,

They shall raise up the former desolations,

And they shall repair the ruined cities,

The desolations of many generations.

5 Strangers shall stand and feed your flocks,

And the sons of the foreigner

Shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers.

6 But you shall be named the priests of the Lord,

They shall call you the servants of our God.

You shall eat the riches of the Gentiles,

And in their glory you shall boast.

7 Instead of your shame you shall have double honor,

And instead of confusion they shall rejoice in their portion.

Therefore in their land they shall possess double;

Everlasting joy shall be theirs.

8 “For I, the Lord, love justice;

I hate robbery for burnt offering;

I will direct their work in truth,

And will make with them an everlasting covenant.

9 Their descendants shall be known among the Gentiles,

And their offspring among the people.

All who see them shall acknowledge them,

That they are the posterity whom the Lord has blessed.”

10 I will greatly rejoice in the Lord,

My soul shall be joyful in my God;

For He has clothed me with the garments of salvation,

He has covered me with the robe of righteousness,

As a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments,

And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

11 For as the earth brings forth its bud,

As the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring forth,

So the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.

GENESIS CONTINUED

12 Then the man said, “The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.”

What do people do these days? They hold others accountable for their own faults, problems and hardships. There is no repentance in blaming others! There is no denying your own wickedness! There is no excuse for sin!

GENESIS CONTINUED

13 And the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”

The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”

You will not be able to blame your pastor or anyone else for your own rebellion and itchy ears!

14 So the Lord God said to the serpent:

“Because you have done this,

You are cursed more than all cattle,

And more than every beast of the field;

On your belly you shall go,

And you shall eat dust

All the days of your life.

Notice Satan shall eat the dust of the earth. Did you know the devil is a spiritual carnivore? Adam was created from the dust of the earth and Satan shall eat the dust of the earth! How does Satan “feed” off from us and get power? He “feeds” and gets empowerment by the works of the flesh as in Galatians 5.

Galatians 5:16–26 (NKJV)

Walking in the Spirit

16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.

19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. 24 And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. 26 Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.

Now when we walk in the Spirit, the Spirit is our Sabbath living in Christ Jesus and the works of the flesh have ceased! The Sabbath is not a day of the week under the New Covenant! Jesus is our Sabbath when we live and walk in the Spirit! “Go and sin no more”!

Matthew 12:1–8 (NKJV)

Controversy Over Sabbath-Labor

Mark 2:23–28; Luke 6:1–5

12 At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the Sabbath. And His disciples were hungry, and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat. 2 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to Him, “Look, Your disciples are doing what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath!”

3 But He said to them, “Have you not read what David did when he was hungry, he and those who were with him: 4 how he entered the house of God and ate the showbread which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests? 5 Or have you not read in the law that on the Sabbath the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath, and are blameless? 6 Yet I say to you that in this place there is One greater than the temple. 7 But if you had known what this means, ‘I desire mercy and not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the guiltless. 8 For the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”

GENESIS CONTINUED

15 And I will put enmity

Between you and the woman,

And between your seed and her Seed;

He shall bruise your head,

And you shall bruise His heel.”

Enmity means warfare!

enmity

■ noun (plural enmities) the state of being an enemy; hostility.

GENESIS CONTINUED

16 To the woman He said:

“I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception;

In pain you shall bring forth children;

Your desire shall be for your husband,

And he shall rule over you.”

1 Corinthians 11:3 (NKJV)

3 But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.

Ephesians 5:22–25 (NKJV)

Marriage—Christ and the Church

22 Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. 23 For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. 24 Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything.

25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her,

1 Timothy 2:12–15 (NKJV)

12 And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence. 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression. 15 Nevertheless she will be saved in childbearing if they continue in faith, love, and holiness, with self-control.

GENESIS CONTINUED

17 Then to Adam He said, “Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it’:

“Cursed is the ground for your sake;

In toil you shall eat of it

All the days of your life.

18 Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you,

And you shall eat the herb of the field.

19 In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread

Till you return to the ground,

For out of it you were taken;

For dust you are,

And to dust you shall return.”

20 And Adam called his wife’s name Eve, because she was the mother of all living.

21 Also for Adam and his wife the Lord God made tunics of skin, and clothed them.

22 Then the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, to know good and evil. And now, lest he put out his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever”—23 therefore the Lord God sent him out of the garden of Eden to till the ground from which he was taken. 24 So He drove out the man; and He placed cherubim at the east of the garden of Eden, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to guard the way to the tree of life.

We read in line 19 that Adam was created from the dust and to the dust he would return. This is the results of the forbidden fruit. This has nothing to do with a natural death it is referring to a spiritual death. The spirit of the Lord had departed from dwelling within Adam and Eve. Hence the name Ichabod, the glory departed. Ichabod is the modern day church void of the true SPIRITUAL representation of Jesus! In line 17 the ground was cursed. I once saw a post of a “money exchanger” in Israel marketing a tour of Israel on YouTube and he pointed and said there is where David walked in the valley of the shadow of death. I rebuke him in his comments and I said you have no revelation of truth. That is not the valley of the shadow of death, the whole earth is the valley of the shadow of death! The whole earth was under the curse not just the land of Israel. A saint is surrounded by people who are physically alive but spiritually DEAD TO CHRIST JESUS, THEY MUST BE BORN AGAIN! So what is happening NOT only in the modern church as well across the whole earth all this evil is manifesting and calling itself good! That is a combination of the Great Apostasy with those who were never born again to begin with! Once saved always saved is from the pit of hell! Please read my three postings on the lies of the pre-tribulation rapture. It is from the Devil and the Babylonian doctrine of “I WILL ASCEND” which is of Lucifer!

1 Samuel 4:21–22 (NKJV)

21 Then she named the child Ichabod, saying, “The glory has departed from Israel!” because the ark of God had been captured and because of her father-in-law and her husband. 22 And she said, “The glory has departed from Israel, for the ark of God has been captured.”

Here is scripture that not only describes Adam spiritual state when he partook of the forbidden fruit being as Ichabod but it also refers to a “CHILD” and the glory has departed from Israel! In Isaiah 9:6 a child was born! I believe by referring to Israel as a child it is in direct correlation with either you as a PERSON are of Jesus redeemed by His blood and resurrected by His indwelling Holy Spirit or you are not of Jesus as the glory of God is not within you!

Isaiah 9:6 (NKJV)

6 For unto us a Child is born,

Unto us a Son is given;

And the government will be upon His shoulder.

And His name will be called

Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,

Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Ephesians 3:14–21 (NKJV)

Appreciation of the Mystery

14 For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, 16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, 17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height—19 to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

20 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, 21 to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

2 Corinthians 3:18 (NKJV)

18 But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.

These scriptures tell us the real Israel is not a physical land or state but a redeemed people in Christ Jesus who are born again! As I have written in my Jesus vs The Pharisees post Jesus turned the Pharisees over to the wickedness of their own hearts by calling them hypocrites seven times. Seven is the number of completion. Please read that post as Jesus told the Pharisees they would search out for one proselyte (convert) and make that convert twice a son of hell! You see there is a great commission for the devil! Then there is the commission of Apostles! There were two active commissions working at the same time in the state/nation of Israel when the incarnate Christ Jesus was in Israel. That is why even then there were many Antichrists. A moment ago we confirmed that Israel was a “child” and that “child” was Christ Jesus incarnation/birth so Israel is human and not a land, state, nation or province! What is a born again Christian called, A CHILD OF GOD! What is the world battling over now? The United States is a “kindred spirit” with the nation of Israel. Ask yourself and seek the Lord which “great commission” the USA is in allegiance with and if the USA is in allegiance with the commission of the Pharisees. What spirit is operating in our government and nation! We are NOT one nation under the true living God Christ Jesus. WHY DO THE NATIONS CONSPIRE AGAINST THE “ANOINTED ONE” CHRIST JESUS.

Matthew 23:15 (NKJV)

15 “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel land and sea to win one proselyte, and when he is won, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves.

Hypocrite—one who puts on a mask and feigns himself to be what he is not; a dissembler in religion. Our Lord severely rebuked the scribes and Pharisees for their hypocrisy (Matt. 6:2, 5, 16). “The hypocrite’s hope shall perish” (Job 8:13). The Hebrew word here rendered “hypocrite” rather means the “godless” or “profane,” as it is rendered in Jer. 23:11, i.e., polluted with crimes.1

Psalm 2:1–8 (NKJV)

The Messiah’s Triumph and Kingdom

1 Why do the nations rage,

And the people plot a vain thing?

2 The kings of the earth set themselves,

And the rulers take counsel together,

Against the Lord and against His Anointed, saying,

3 “Let us break Their bonds in pieces

And cast away Their cords from us.”

4 He who sits in the heavens shall laugh;

The Lord shall hold them in derision.

5 Then He shall speak to them in His wrath,

And distress them in His deep displeasure:

6 “Yet I have set My King

On My holy hill of Zion.”

7 “I will declare the decree:

The Lord has said to Me,

‘You are My Son,

Today I have begotten You.

8 Ask of Me, and I will give You

The nations for Your inheritance,

And the ends of the earth for Your possession.

THE RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT OF CHRIST JESUS

THE RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT OF CHRIST JESUS

As with any posting from anyone I do my best to try to communicate what is on my heart the best that I can. Please take all matters to the Lord in prayer. It is NOT my will that anyone be deceived. The enemy is after all of us, including me! I pray the Holy Spirit bears witness to all of you. If not then it could be for a different time in your walk with the Lord. DO NOT ACCEPT WHAT THE HOLY SPIRIT DOES NOT REVEAL BUT PRAY INTO IT. God bless the saints of the Lord and may the fullness of His love and spirit dwell and manifest richly within you.

I just want to make a point that “rebellion” and “delusion” overlooks righteous judgment because of either “the falling away” apostasy from Spirit and Truth or outright denial of Spirit and Truth which is rebellion.

There are many false prophets, wolves in sheep clothing and hirelings in the pulpits and Christian circles, world known ministries, Christian radio and Christian television! These facts as they are indicate the condition of your heart for those who sit under these people as EVERY SINGLE PERSON ON EARTH will have had at one time or another heard the TRUE GOSPEL OF CHRIST JESUS FOR SALVATION! Having heard the TRUE GOSPEL IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH denying the Spirit of Truth will render righteous judgment from the Judgment Seat of the Lord Jesus.

So when you knowingly sit under these false prophets, wolves in sheep clothing and hirelings in the pulpit you are may very well condemning your soul like the parable of the frog in the pan of water being heated up slowly.

When you discern these wolves and hireling you should immediately seek the Lord in prayer for HIS will for you to be there. The Lord will always bring light and truth where there is darkness, lies and deception! That is why you must seek the Lord in prayer on what He wants you to do in this matter. Are you there to reach a few souls as many will not embrace Spirit and Truth or where you NOT SENT THERE BY THE LORD TO BEGIN WITH! After all it is the Lord who orders the steps of a righteous man.

Perhaps you are being tested which IS NOT PREACHED. How is faith, loyalty, devotion, long-suffering displayed and how do these virtues of Christ Jesus in you grow in maturity? How was Abraham’s faith test so why shouldn’t your faith be tested? How did Job bear witness and glorify the Lord by his sufferings and testimony, “The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away blessed be the Lord.” Is the Lord Jesus himself displaying and revealing the hearts of those who have rejected the Lord Jesus. YOUR HEART is being OPENLY DISPLAYED NAKED BEFORE THE LORD. If the Lord asks you will you be humble and attempt to bring leaders or saints to Spirit and Truth. Or will you remain in fellowship subjected to doctrines of demons and deceitful workers of iniquity? If you do, you partake in the judgment of the house you sit in, this is a fact many do not want to accept.

Matthew 10:14–15 (NKJV)

14 And whoever will not receive you nor hear your words, when you depart from that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet. 15 Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!

Did not Lot and his family have to depart Sodom and Gomorrah and Lot’s wife turn into a pillar of salt! Will you partake in the judgment upon them by continuing to sit and fellowship with evil?

The Lord will give you the desires of your heart even if the Lord is not your desire! Read my post Jesus vs. The Pharisees: https://abidingbread.com/2025/06/07/jesus-verses-the-pharisees/

Make no mistake, you are being tested! This will be more prevalent as we continue with a testing I went through and I share as a teaching. Remember the Lord Jesus wished no one would perish and that all would come to saving grace in Christ Jesus.

Acts 7:51–60 (NKJV)

Israel Resists the Holy Spirit

51 “You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you. 52 Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? And they killed those who foretold the coming of the Just One, of whom you now have become the betrayers and murderers, 53 who have received the law by the direction of angels and have not kept it.”

Stephen the Martyr

54 When they heard these things they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed at him with their teeth. 55 But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God, 56 and said, “Look! I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!”

57 Then they cried out with a loud voice, stopped their ears, and ran at him with one accord; 58 and they cast him out of the city and stoned him. And the witnesses laid down their clothes at the feet of a young man named Saul. 59 And they stoned Stephen as he was calling on God and saying, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.” 60 Then he knelt down and cried out with a loud voice, “Lord, do not charge them with this sin.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep.

2 Thessalonians 2:3–12 (NKJV)

3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, 4 who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.

5 Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? 6 And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time. 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. 9 The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, 10 and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, 12 that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

What we just confirmed is that these people were not only once followers of Christ (disciples means followers but NOT born again followers). The disciples DID NOT BECOME APOSTLES UNTIL PENTECOST WHICH IS BEING BORN AGAIN! By the wisdom of God our Father no one can be disciples without the Holy Spirit because it was Jesus by the Spirit of The Lord that taught the disciples. Today’s church has lost this truthful foundation. That is what is meant by if the Lord does not build the house they labor in vein! So the doctrines of men and doctrines of demons will not render Spirit and Truth or holiness. Only Jesus can do that by the indwelling Holy Spirit! This is why people worship the Son of Man and NOT the Son of God! They follow the teachings of men not the Lord!

1 Corinthians 2:10–16 (NKJV)

10 But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. 11 For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.

13 These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 14 But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. 15 But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. 16 For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.

Notice the spirit of a man is the spirit of this world which is the god of this world Lucifer the Devil! Doctrines of men is doctrines of demons!

Now what I about to share for the first time publicly is not being boastful, prideful or from a nature or spirit of being superior. I believe the Lord is having me share this because we are truly in the last hours NOT DAYS and we all know whether born again or not that the world is growing more wicked every day. We are little seeing prophecy of the Book of Revelations being manifested and fulfilled before our eyes. So by the will of the Lord Jesus I share this testimony about Jezebel as Jezebel is in the book of Revelations.

The Lord sent me as I did not chose to go to TWO world wide seminaries/ministry schools in immediate succession where the whole teaching administration’s teaching was twisted and manipulation of scriptures which was doctrines of demons. I discerned by the Spirit of the Living God that these people worshiped other gods! On the third day of the first school/seminary I went back to the parking lot mid evening when the facility was vacant and had a real stern discussion with the Lord while looking up at the stars similar to Abraham.

I said Lord, why did you bring me here and ask me to give away all of my household possessions, sell my home and travel for you. These people do not know you or worship you, they serve other gods. My desire is for more of you and you alone Lord. Why would you subject me to this constant spiritual warfare and evil. Remember I had only been there three days!

Right there in the parking lot I had a Moses moment as the Lord replied to me. I brought you here to reveal me and testify of me! I said Lord “who am I that I should be considered worthy to represent you”. This statement not only reflects Moses it also reflects the virgin Mary being considered worthy.

After four months of constant spiritual warfare not only from leadership but from students many who were deceived I cried myself to sleep as I was fasting and praying to the Lord.

Just a quick note, you should read my post about the damnation of spiritual gossip: https://abidingbread.com/2026/01/03/the-spiritual-damnation-of-religious-gossip/ The reason I mention that is because the Jezebel spirit spreads gossip getting other to pray for you! What they are really doing is putting curses upon you! Remember witches operate in covens! What my Jezebel leader said to my class behind my back was Glen doesn’t know Jesus or hear from Jesus so we must pray for him! READ MY BLOG POST! LIFE AND DEATH IS IN THE POWER OF THE TONGUE!

In my fasting and praying myself to sleep I said to the Lord. Lord if I have offended you by the constant subjection of the Holy Spirit to this constant spiritual warfare I ask for your forgiveness. I do not want to subject you Lord to this warfare as I love you Lord and anyone I love I desire to protect. Lord if I have been deceived in any way, shape or form and knowing or unknowingly come into agreement I declare right now that I have been redeemed, reconciled, washed in your blood, bought and paid for by your blood and atonement. Lord Jesus you are mine and I am yours! Lord I will NOT leave this battlefield until you speak to me to leave for I do not know the souls you will place before me to be a living witness and testimony! I will endure this suffering for your namesake but I do NOT desire to partake in what this place represents or in the gods they serve!

I fell asleep crying in my prayers as the anguish of spiritual attacks was wearing down my flesh’s ability to see, read the Word and other bodily functions yet my heart, mind and soul were steadfast on the Lord Jesus. At three in the morning I was immediately awoken to the Lord standing before me! It was glorious and powerful. I could see the outline of a man in complete body of light, pure light. Jesus spoke to me spirit to spirit no audible voice as I rented room in a home with other men who attended the same ministry school.

Jesus spoke to me. My son you have not grieved the Holy Spirit by these constant attacks. Your spiritual battle has been against the spirit of Jezebel as that principality is running this ministry school. You are free to go the choice is yours. At 6 am I went out to the kitchen to get a coffee and one of the students that attended the same ministry school ask how I was doing. I said I am well by the grace of God as Jesus was in my room at 3 am and answered my prayers of intercession. He replied with excitement and said I could feel a presence in the house and I kept speaking I wanted more but did not receive more. I said the Lord told me I am free to go now and leave school. Here is a point I want to make. If you think of the house layout I was at the far end. The man I rented from was in the middle who was a graduate of this ministry school and the third man I spoke with at 6 am was at the far end. The man I rent from who graduated NEVER FELT THE PRESENCE OF GOD. Unfortunately I was called a fool by both men for leaving the school.

Now let me point out there were 1400 students in first year! How many of them became disciples of Jezebel! This is an international school across the globe!

When I left the school and was driving from the west coast all the way to the east coast the Lord told me to fast and pray to break off any spirits that would attempt to follow or continue to attack. What I was doing in prayer is what the Lord does for us. Spiritually I was closing a door that NO man could open because it was Jesus who closed the door! Think of Noah and the Lord closing Noah inside the Arc which by the way was symbolic of the Arc of the Covenant! How do we know this? Did not Noah release the Dove from within the Arc! Why was it even called an ARC? You see that is the same thing that happened when Jesus got into the boat with the disciples during the raging waters! The LIVING NEW COVENANT CHRIST JESUS GOT IN THE BOAT. WHAT WAS THE NEW COVENANT INTENTIONS, SALVATION! THEY WERE SAVED FROM THE STORMS OF LIFE ON EARTH! WHICH ARE TRIALS, TRIBULATION, ETC.

About one month later I spoke to the Lord in prayer. I said Lord you came to me and spoke to me that it was Jezebel so Lord it is my desire to know more about Jezebel so that I may have your wisdom. I said Lord do NOT allow me to be consumed by evil spirits through my studying of Jezebel but make it known to me the methods, whiles and schemes of the devil.

I would like to give testimony about Jezebel and testing the spirits. When the Lord told me I was free to go I submitted my withdraw papers to leave at the end of the quarter which was just about 2 weeks remaining before the Christmas break. The pastor that was my instructor was a female who was also a Jezebel and my primary attacker. Having revelation from the Lord’s encounter and constant spiritual battles. While in class this same woman pastor (Jezebel) came to my class in an attempt to ridicule me. She walked in and interrupted the class and spoke over the class directly to me and said you have a meeting with me tomorrow at 1 pm in a very confrontational manner which everyone knew was a form of discipline. When I went to see her in a one on one meeting she was attempting to review my classwork in disguise but it was a confrontation of submission to her demonic authority. So I “tested the spirit”. I said where should a person be spiritually by the end of their first year of attendance in school. Where do you see me know and what do I need to improve on to complete my first year. I was “baiting the hook”. This is the reply I received as she spoke. “Can I be perfectly honest with you”. I said certainly. “She said a person should have a close relationship with the Lord and be growing in the Lord”. “She continued: You need to work on your pride, arrogance and obedience developing humility”. I smiled, laughed and said you really ought to get to know me as I am a good person.

I could see in her eyes the spirits of hatred and murder! She was so mad and trying so hard to control her manifestations. I walked out. She scheduled a meeting with the dean of the school for all three of us. When I attended the meeting the dean said well I have read your student application and it would appear that you may have a calling but you will never be established in ministry without this school as we are able to establish you! Immediately my spirit was taken to the encounter with Jesus and Satan in the wilderness and I received divine revelation. I responded to both of them. I see what is going on here as you call me arrogant and prideful but what I have is confidence in Christ Jesus and I do not need your school as I have all sufficiency in Christ Jesus which I had prior to coming here. I had everything I needed before coming here!

You see Satan will accuse you of WHAT IS IN HIM! Satan is the accuser of the brethren and they were trying to get me to bow to Satan! ALL THIS CAN BE YOURS IF YOU BOW BEFORE ME! That is exactly what Satan spoke to Jesus. Also did Jesus ever ask if he could be truthful? You have to be kidding me! In my private meeting with Jezebel when I tested the spirit her first reply was “Can I be perfectly honest”. Which in the Holy Spirit I received and heard “Can I speak lies that you will believe”! Why would a Christian filled with the Holy Spirit not be honest already! There is no darkness in Christ Jesus so why the lies of accusation towards me! We are called to speak in Spirit and Truth because Spirit and Truth dwells within us! I needed to share this testimony before concluding my posting. So as I conclude I want you to read what the Lord spoke to me a couple weeks after leaving that international ministry school.

The Lord by the unction of the Holy Spirit spoke to me as I meditated on my experiences of the Lord while at that ministry school and the Lord spoke Deuteronomy chapter 13. I want to give you one last suggestion. Whatever you go through all things work out for the pleasure of the Lord so any experiences like this are meant to grow you not to destroy you. So reflect, meditate and seek the Lord on every experience. What is the Lord showing, revealing, strengthening you of, delivering you from, etc. so you can get revelation not head knowledge. Head knowledge dissipates in time when you do not perform or those actions or thoughts in a reoccurring timely manner. Revelations of Christ are eternal forever a part of your spiritual growth. That is exactly what Jesus told the disciples that the Comforter must come to bring all of His teaching back to their remembrance and to give them greater revelations they were not ready to receive. Without continual spiritual revelations of Truth you are not growing Spiritually. That is why I write from my heart and that is why I say everything that is written in the Word of God is actual living experiences and we will in our journey experience everything contained in the Word of God whether in the physical and/or spiritual.

I was not at the scourging post of Christ in the natural but I was taken there in the spiritual to get a great revelation of the Grace of God! This happened in one of my meditation times with the Lord as I was meditating on my life in Christ Jesus thanking Jesus for His grace. How many of us could endure in the physical what Jesus sustained torture Jesus endured without the Father POURING out HIS GRACE! Without grace I would have had enough before the cross and wanted to die! It was by the FATHERS GRACE THAT THE SON ENDURED THE CROSS! It is by the grace of Jesus that the cross of Christ Jesus may do a work within us rendering a pure and holy image and likeness of Christ Jesus.

The Lord replied in the spirit Deuteronomy chapter 13. So in closing I will share what the Lord spoke with Deuteronomy 13.

Deuteronomy 13:1–18 (NKJV)

Punishment of Apostates

13 “If there arises among you a prophet or a dreamer of dreams, and he gives you a sign or a wonder, 2 and the sign or the wonder comes to pass, of which he spoke to you, saying, ‘Let us go after other gods’—which you have not known—‘and let us serve them,’ 3 you shall not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams, for the Lord your God is testing you to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul. 4 You shall walk after the Lord your God and fear Him, and keep His commandments and obey His voice; you shall serve Him and hold fast to Him. 5 But that prophet or that dreamer of dreams shall be put to death, because he has spoken in order to turn you away from the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt and redeemed you from the house of bondage, to entice you from the way in which the Lord your God commanded you to walk. So you shall put away the evil from your midst.

6 “If your brother, the son of your mother, your son or your daughter, the wife of your bosom, or your friend who is as your own soul, secretly entices you, saying, ‘Let us go and serve other gods,’ which you have not known, neither you nor your fathers, 7 of the gods of the people which are all around you, near to you or far off from you, from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth, 8 you shall not consent to him or listen to him, nor shall your eye pity him, nor shall you spare him or conceal him; 9 but you shall surely kill him; your hand shall be first against him to put him to death, and afterward the hand of all the people. 10 And you shall stone him with stones until he dies, because he sought to entice you away from the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage. 11 So all Israel shall hear and fear, and not again do such wickedness as this among you.

12 “If you hear someone in one of your cities, which the Lord your God gives you to dwell in, saying, 13 ‘Corrupt men have gone out from among you and enticed the inhabitants of their city, saying, “Let us go and serve other gods” ’—which you have not known—14 then you shall inquire, search out, and ask diligently. And if it is indeed true and certain that such an abomination was committed among you, 15 you shall surely strike the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying it, all that is in it and its livestock—with the edge of the sword. 16 And you shall gather all its plunder into the middle of the street, and completely burn with fire the city and all its plunder, for the Lord your God. It shall be a heap forever; it shall not be built again. 17 So none of the accursed things shall remain in your hand, that the Lord may turn from the fierceness of His anger and show you mercy, have compassion on you and multiply you, just as He swore to your fathers, 18 because you have listened to the voice of the Lord your God, to keep all His commandments which I command you today, to do what is right in the eyes of the Lord your God.

I want you to realize that I had only been saved 8 months when I registered for ministry school and I had numerous encounters with the Lord prior to registering for ministry school. Some encounters I was taken to the third heaven and some encounters while on earth. I even had one close Christian friend witness and outer body experience I was having who later turned against me. If you desire Christ and earnestly seek the Lord you will experience your own Patmos Island as you will have Christ and Christ alone.

When you reach a point in your spiritual journey you will understand there are two types of prodical sons. One is your personal turning away from God the other is the Church you attend denying Christ in you! So you end up on a spiritual island of Patmos! So when a Christian says the Lord will never leave you or forsake you they speak it as a punchline and not true Spiritual revelation of being forsaken by the Leodicean Church! A true man of God walks alone with God because all who forsake the Living God will forsake the true man of God. This is a very harsh reality but spiritual truth. That is why the apostles and prophets were martyred preaching the GOOD NEWS OF SALVATION. Imagine killing messengers of good! What do we see today with all of the killing everywhere. Here is the testimony of my friend witnessing my outer body experience when I was caught up to the third heaven to be with the Lord. Remember there is a difference between praise and true worship! That is why many do not have these experiences as they do not comprehend the difference! What did Jesus tell the woman at the well!

John 4:23–24 (NKJV)

23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. 24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

My friend and I both loved the fall scenery and in northern New England the fall foliage is really pretty. We had gone out into the woods to a nice stream. My friend likes to take pictures as he was (past tense as he walked away as a friend) a photography buff. I love to worship the Lord so I had my Apple Ipod and earbuds and worshiped the Lord. During my worship I was taken to the third heaven with the Lord in the Spirit. During my time with the Lord unknown to me there was a women a distance off walking and approaching on the path to my direction. My friend unknowing to me was watching me from a similar distance and was observing me. I IMMEDIATELY CAME OUT OF THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD AND WAS BACK IN MY PHYSICAL BODY AND TURNED LOOKING DOWN THE PATH AT THE WOMAN APPROACHING. When we got in the car to leave he said the Lord revealed something to him about me. I said feel free to share. He said when I looked at you it was if your body was there as I could see your body but it’s like you yourself were not there. I said you are correct I was with the Lord in the third heaven. He then asked how did you know that woman was approaching. I said very easily. Intimacy is between two not a multitude! So she was NOT ALLOWED to enter my intimacy with the Lord! That is why I came back to my physical body! In the Spirit even though I was in the third heaven with Jesus I was aware of my surroundings by the Spirit!

While you may question this there are numerous scriptures to back this up. One is the woman who touch Jesus robe. She did not touch Jesus and Jesus said “who drew from me”. You see virtue was released! How is it Paul had his encounter on the road to Damasus and the others did not see Jesus? How is it Phillip was translated to minister to the Etheopian? How is even our prayers as individual saints are each unique and distinguished as individuals in the nostrils or the Lord Jesus? Do not be deceived by corporate worship trying to get you in the presence of God as each of us is an individual. When you partake of corporate worship too often it is sensual. In one instance as I was worshiping in corporate worship at a church I had a Jezebel come stand next to me as I was in the end of the row on the isle side. Jezebel kept stamping her feet like a bull attempting to get me out of the presence of the Lord!

I share this NOT from pride but from revelations that most Christians do not understand. The incarnate Christ was both human and divine. Thus being a new creation in Christ by being born again we too occupy two realms simultaneously. We occupy the earth physically but spiritually we dwell with Christ seated at the right hand of the Father! This is how we know what the Father is doing, by the Spirit. This is how we learn to walk in the Spirit!

So this leads me to the pre-trib rapture lie! When I was at a bible study which two pastors were going through the book of Revelations one pastor spoke and said we need to tell people about events in the book of Revelations so they will be saved and won’t go through these things written in Revelations and be taken in the pre-trib rapture. I spoke so all of the people could hear. That is not the gospel of salvation! I said preaching the pre-trib rapture is a lie as I have already been raptured! I got the deaf and dumb looks towards me in doubt so I said I am seated in heavenly placed through Christ Jesus and I am at the right hand of the Father in Christ Jesus. I have already been raptured because I am in this world but not of this world!

That is why I debunked and wrote about the lies of the Babylonian doctrine of demons regarding the pre-trib rapture. People that believe and embrace the pre-trib rapture are very likely not born again, deceived or have fallen away in the apostasy. The whole concept of the Babylonian tower was to ascend to heaven making yourself as god! Is that not the spirit of Antichrist and the profession of statement Lucifer spoke. I WILL ASCEND! The reason for the pre-trib rapture is because they DO NOT HAVE A LIVING TESTIMONY OF CHRIST JESUS WHICH IS REQUIRED AT THE END OF THE AGE! THEY WILL DENY CHRIST SO THEIR HEARTS ARE ALREADY ALIGNED WITH THE SPIRIT OF THIS AGE! YOU DO NOT ASSOCIATE WITH YOUR ENEMIES SO THE SPIRIT OF THE AGE IS THEIR FRIEND. A true Christian has a friend that is closer than a brother!

John 15:13–15 (NKJV)

13 Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. 14 You are My friends if you do whatever I command you. 15 No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you.

In all of my writings and postings you will observe this one simple principle if you pay close attention. I could just post a scripture online but I normally tell you from my heart what that scripture has done for me personally or how it affects a saint personally! The devil knows the Word of God but the devil will not expound or reveal truth about the scripture as he presents it manipulated, twisted and out of context. The devil will appear to speak in Spirit and Truth by reading the word but the devil can NEVER BECOME THE LIVING WORD which is what the devil wants! The true distinction is are they writing/reciting from the heart or head knowledge! If they do not write from the heart then it is likely they only know what is written and NOT THE PERSON OF CHRIST JESUS. If there only/last testimony is there salvation where is the working of the Holy Spirit within their heart as they have NO new revelation of the PERSON OF CHRIST JESUS. So while I may only intend to write one chapter in my postings I end up with a sermon and a longer post because when you are in the Spirit the Lord is limitless! All things pertaining to a life in Christ are eternal they have no END! The heart is the witness of true conversion and not merely the words someone speaks, reads or writes!

When I first got saved there was a man from India who was a Christian. He would put postings online that I would read and reply openly on his postings. After about a week of doing this he messaged me privately. His name was Thampi Joseph. I believe that was it or it was Joseph Thampi. Either way he messaged me and said to me brother Glen I truly appreciate your replies to my posting that edify my followers. I replied brother Thampi I meditate on what you post and write what it means in my heart and then write from my heart what it means on your postings. He replied a week later and said brother the Lord has His hands upon you. I will send people to you online through messenger to minister too. I sent monies to him for bibles as he led people to the Lord. You see “what is the evidence from your heart” not merely what you speak! You will know them by their fruit. What is the parable of the sowing of seed!

I will close for now but once again I must say this. I am not bragging or boasting as my desire is to reveal Christ and NOTHING OF ME. That is exactly what Jesus said to Satan in the wilderness. That is the same prayer I prayed when I got saved in 2010years. Lord I want to be able to say to Satan: YOU HAVE NOTHING IN ME! I would then pray John 1:1 Lord your Spirit dwells within me and the Word became flesh Lord be it in me as it was in you! Consume this flesh so I may reveal you! If you do not know Jesus in the Spirit you do not know Jesus at all because Jesus is no longer of the flesh Himself.

2 Corinthians 5:16 (NKJV)

16 Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him thus no longer.

Romans 8:14–17 (NKJV)

14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. 15 For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” 16 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, 17 and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.

Hebrews 6:1–8 (NKJV)

The Peril of Not Progressing

6 Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, 2 of the doctrine of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. 3 And this we will do if God permits.

4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 6 if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.

7 For the earth which drinks in the rain that often comes upon it, and bears herbs useful for those by whom it is cultivated, receives blessing from God; 8 but if it bears thorns and briers, it is rejected and near to being cursed, whose end is to be burned.

I pray that you might be encourage by this post to pursue the fullness of what Christ Jesus has called you to and may the fullness of Christ dwell richly within you. Do NOT become the Laodicean Church! Stay on fire for the Lord!

THE PROGRESSION OF SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE AND GROWTH

/1 Comment/in , , , , , , , , /by

THE PROGRESSION OF A SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE OF GROWTH FROM HEBREWS 4:12 TO EPHESIANS 6:10-20

As with any posting from anyone I do my best to try to communicate what is on my heart the best that I can. Please take all matters to the Lord in prayer. It is NOT my will that anyone be deceived. The enemy is after all of us, including me! I pray the Holy Spirit bears witness to all of you. If not then it could be for a different time in your walk with the Lord. DO NOT ACCEPT WHAT THE HOLY SPIRIT DOES NOT REVEAL BUT PRAY INTO IT. God bless the saints of the Lord and may the fullness of His love and spirit dwell and manifest richly within you.

The very first point of mention is that even though a sword is mentioned in both scriptures the spiritual implications of those scriptures above is completely different. You can read my posting of David vs. Goliath to get better understanding. https://abidingbread.com/2025/12/02/david-vs-goliath-the-mark-of-the-beast/

Too many Christians directly equate Hebrews 4:12 with the armor of God and they are completely different applications and one precedes the other in being equipped for battle. We know that a kingdom divided can not stand as well as when we are born again we receive imputed righteousness from Christ Jesus. This imputed righteous by the indwelling Holy Spirit still needs to do a work within us BEFORE we take the battle field in the Spirit realm.

Just because you received the Holy Spirit does NOT mean you are totally filled with light! We know this by the parable of the 10 virgins! So we still have darkness within us that the Holy Spirit wishes and desires to “cut away” from within us. That is the double edge sword. Too many also it is symbolic of the brethren as “iron sharpening iron” but that is just scratching the surface because when you sharpen any knife, sword or iron you need “honing oil” which is the Holy Spirit because we are talking about spiritual growth unto complete sanctification and holiness! Think Galatians 2:20 & 6:14.

The Word of God in Hebrews 4:12 is the living God not just the Written Word. It is the Lord by the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit that crucifies our old nature and gets us to the Garden of Gethsemane. What sorrowed the Lord is that the disciples fell asleep which means the same application process of what Jesus went through was not a living witness to them. They were called to die to “self” just as when they partook of the last supper! When you take communion you are actively committing to dying to “self” as whoever does not partake of the Body and Blood is not worthy to follow Jesus.

Hebrews 4:12–13 (NKJV)

12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 13 And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.

Notice heart, mind and soul! These represent the first commandment Jesus spoke that we must love Jesus with all of our mind, heart and soul! This is not possible when you deny the Holy Spirit access to these areas of our very being! Also notice the saints will give an account of denying the process of sanctification and pruning!

John 15:1–11 (NKJV)

The Relationship of Believers to Christ

15 “I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 3 You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. 4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.

5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. 8 By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.

9 “As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. 10 If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love.

11 “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.

This is of vital importance as in the New Testament I can not reflect on even one single Apostle given unto a sinful nature! So this false metaphor Christians repeat that no one is without sin is TOTALLY VOID of the life, death and resurrection of Christ Jesus! You deny the gospel and the power of God by this statement! You deny the double edge sword which is the person of Christ Jesus! I say PERSON of Christ Jesus for a reason which I will expound on as we proceed. When you deny the double edge sword you deny THE FINISHED WORK OF THE CROSS OF CHRIST JESUS.

Romans 6:1–14 (NKJV)

Dead to Sin, Alive to God

6 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? 2 Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it? 3 Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? 4 Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

5 For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection, 6 knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin. 7 For he who has died has been freed from sin. 8 Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him, 9 knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over Him. 10 For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. 11 Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts. 13 And do not present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. 14 For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace.

Have you allowed the Cross of Christ Jesus to work within you? I am not talking about stumbling as we live in a fallen world and the influences of darkness as no saint is exempt from spiritual attacks of Satan. I am talking about the same sin being repetitive. I realize that many forms of bondage are not easy but are you calling on the Lord to crucify that sin, asking for HIS power and GRACE to overcome? Why is the mindset stronghold of being saved your final destination. Why are the churches sending out newly saved people telling them they are ready to minister? They have a testimony but are not yet ready for ministry. There is no real discipleship from the Holy Spirit. I keep saying this over and over you are to reflect, represent and reveal Christ Jesus. This means you do not represent your pastor, church, denomination, your own beliefs which may be false but you preach and speak IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH. When you speak with a mixture of flesh and spirit I guess you could say you speak with a forked tongue. I am not saying this out of cruelty. I have witnessed by the Holy Spirit when someone speaks starting out in the Spirit and then adds their own interpretation of expounds with their own intellect rather than revelations of Spirit and Truth. Hey, we are human and all being refined. This is why prophet utterance is only speaking by the power and unction of the Holy Spirit. Just as Jesus said the words I speak are not my own but of my Father. I only do what I see my Father doing! We must all develop this in our own walk with the Lord. Today the church has people say a prayer, dunk them in water and sends them out. How come it took three and a half years for discipleship when JESUS TAUGHT THEM and even then without the Holy Spirit they would not remember what they had been taught. In addition there were things Jesus said He could NOT teach them until the Holy Spirit dwelt within them. That is why in my previous post I said all of the Apostles had the same Gospel but each grew in continued revelations of Christ. Paul preached on Grace because it was a personal revelation by the Thorn in the flesh. Paul knew this was also a spiritual attack and wrote Ephesians six. John wrote the Book of Revelations. All of the Epistles were their testimonies of continue Revelations of Christ Jesus. It is the Apostles and Prophets that lay the foundation of Christ Jesus but not only the denial of the five fold ministry but also the false people in the five fold ministry corrupt the Word of God. The five fold ministry is the fullness of Jesus as five is the biblical number of GRACE! A true Apostle walks in the total of the five fold ministry or how could you “BUILD THE CHURCH”. Today we only have a pastor who eliminates the five fold ministry and he alone represents an all in one presence. Is the pastor prophetic? Let’s put it this way which office of the five fold ministry in the bible battles Jezebel? What office of the five fold ministry took on principalities? Which office took on Kings of other nations? When the church does not have the five fold ministry the saints suffer in edification. There again just as there are false pastors/prophets there will be false in all five offices. That does not mean those offices do not exist. It’s so sad today that the saints can’t distinguish between prophecy and the office of a prophet! When Paul said above all the gifts he wish all would prophesy he was referring to being living witnesses/testimonies of Christ Jesus. The spirit of prophecy is testimony of Jesus. Anyone that speaks/proclaims/preaches is prophesying but that does NOT make them a prophet! So preaching is a testimony of Jesus Christ. Many have another Jesus that they preach and thus a different Spirit.

I get many excuses when I bring up these points when people say Moses wasn’t perfect and yet Moses was commissioned. They do not see the difference between the Old Testament and New Testament! Visitation is NOT habitation, why do you think they brought the Arc of the Covenant?

Exodus 33:15 (NKJV)

15 Then he said to Him, “If Your Presence does not go with us, do not bring us up from here.

It is important to understand when the Lord went with them did the Lord only go in part or in fullness? Is the fullness of the Holy Spirit been developed and established within you? Is there still any darkness that you have within you? If so, the fullness of Christ is NOT going with you or within you!

Jesus is the fulfillment of the Old Covenant! Those born again do not live under the Old Covenant. To understand the New Covenant the Old Covenant is needed and visa versa. To understand the fullness of the Old Covenant the New Covenant is needed. That is why the full counsel of God’s Word is vital and essential!

Matthew 5:48 (NKJV)

48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

Philippians 1:6 (NKJV)

6 being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;

Hebrews 12:14 (NKJV)

14 Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord:

Matthew 6:21–23 (NKJV)

21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

22  “The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light. 23 But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!

Now let us look at how by allowing the fulfillment of Hebrews 4:12 which is the Person of Christ Jesus to work within you unto complete sanctification and holiness you can not fulfill Ephesians 6:10-20.

Ephesians 6:10–20 (NKJV)

The Whole Armor of God

10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; 18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints—19 and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

If you do not put on which means submit to Hebrews 4:12 you are unable to put on the power of His might or the completed armor. Thus you are not truly equipped for the battlefield! Are you sanctified by His Word? Has all of HIS WORD which is the LIVING WORD CHRIST JESUS FORMED WITHIN YOU. ARE YOU ESTABLISHED IN HIS IMAGE AND LIKENESS. I know this is contrary to the preaching of today but this is critical in the hour we live!

John 17:18–23 (NKJV)

18 As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. 19 And for their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified by the truth.

Christ Prays for All Believers

20 “I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; 21 that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. 22 And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: 23 I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.

Now let us try to wrap this up. As you seen in John 17 we are sanctified by truth. Is your church preaching in Spirit and Truth? Truth is established ONLY by The Holy Spirit. So are you allowing Hebrews 4:12-13 to be fulfilled in you? Christ Jesus was not glorified until after His death and resurrection and if Mary had touched Jesus before Jesus ascended that would have changed the outcome. You see human hands can not create the dwelling place of the Lord so a church structure or place of congregation is NOT the church. If Jesus had not ascended into glory before anyone touched Jesus the fallen nature would have been a contamination of the resurrection. You may ask how do we know this. Paul tells us and this is also why the modern day church is in the condition that it is and why false doctrines have created people influenced and inhabited by demons who call themselves Christians.

1 Timothy 5:22 (NKJV)

22 Do not lay hands on anyone hastily, nor share in other people’s sins; keep yourself pure.

I hope you have found this informative and that you received this in Spirit and Truth. I once had a woman come to a prayer group with several sicknesses. I was instructed by church leaders not to pray directly but to give any revelations to the leadership of the prayer group so they could pray. This is in total opposition to the Spirit of God! The one who receives revelation is the one empowered by that revelation because it was received from the Lord by the Holy Spirit. So the revelation empowers the prayer. The two leaders prayed with no healing. I said all that they have prayed is not your problem. I said the Lord revealed that your thyroid is the problem which is creating these illnesses and sickness. I asked if I could gently lay my hand on her throat and she said yes. As I prayed she began to cry as the Holy Spirit was manifesting. Her cry was not of hurt but of revelation of the prayer. When I finished my prayer she stated the revelation to me. She said she had been to a church for the “laying on of hands” for spiritual impartation and she feared she received a different spirit! There you go, the laying on of hands imparts spirits! I asked if I could pray again and she said yes. So I said greater is the Lord in her and greater is the Lord in me. In the name of Jesus come out now! She was delivered right there and set free! I was told this type of prayer was not allowed because the church had a SOZO deliverance ministry which is psychotherapy masquerading as spiritual deliverance! I know because the Lord allowed me to attend a few class session and even under a session. I was not blinded spiritually so I was unaffected by this process but it allowed me to discern and witness first hand this demonic false deliverance ministry. It is done by “probing spirits” as I have discussed in other postings. The Lord is not a probing Spirit He reveals to us by divine revelation as I mentioned a few sentences ago. The reason for probing spirits is to put a spiritual hook in you to create ungodly soul ties of bondage. You then are subject to repetitive sessions of SOZO or falsely believe you are set free. It’s of the devil! Impartation is the laying on of hands for the transference of spiritual gifts bu tit is the impartation of the spirit of those gifts which 99.9 percent of the time is transference of demonic spirits! You are receiving spirits! Paul approached this much differently with Timothy as the calling and gifting is from the Lord only! Notice the gift of God was already within Timothy!

2 Timothy 1:6 (NKJV)

6 Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.

Acts 19:1–6 (NKJV)

Paul at Ephesus

19 And it happened, while Apollos was at Corinth, that Paul, having passed through the upper regions, came to Ephesus. And finding some disciples 2 he said to them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?”

So they said to him, “We have not so much as heard whether there is a Holy Spirit.”

3 And he said to them, “Into what then were you baptized?”

So they said, “Into John’s baptism.”

4 Then Paul said, “John indeed baptized with a baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe on Him who would come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.”

5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 And when Paul had laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.

THE SPIRITUAL LIES AND DECEPTION OF “ONLY THE LORD KNOWS THE HEART”

/in , , , , , , /by

THE SPIRITUAL LIES AND DECEPTION OF “ONLY THE LORD KNOWS THE HEART”

As with any posting from anyone I do my best to try to communicate what is on my heart the best that I can. Please take all matters to the Lord in prayer. It is NOT my will that anyone be deceived. The enemy is after all of us, including me! I pray the Holy Spirit bears witness to all of you. If not then it could be for a different time in your walk with the Lord. DO NOT ACCEPT WHAT THE HOLY SPIRIT DOES NOT REVEAL BUT PRAY INTO IT. God bless the saints of the Lord and may the fullness of His love and spirit dwell and manifest richly within you.

I am writing this post as I recall many incidents of pastors preaching this from the pulpits as well as preaching Matthew 7 being taken out of context about “judging”. That is another twisted preaching that has condemned many souls just as “only the Lord knows the heart”.

It is about time this gets rebuked and people become aware that the reason that is a lie is because it is a PARTIAL truth and that makes it a lie.

I remember when I was traveling in Missouri ministering and the Lord spoke to me about settling in Missouri for one year. So the Lord sent me to a company that was not advertising for help to apply for a job. I went in and said I was looking for work and immediately received an interview and offered a job. The Lord gave me a job of little status but wonderful opportunity to minister. I was hired as a tri-state truck driver as I had a commercial drivers license.

This job allowed me to minister on the road while working. I would share the gospel, prophecy and give words of knowledge to the customers. My boss came to me about 3 months later and said my route had doubled in purchase volume and I said yes. I pray and prophesy for the customers.

I was trying to assist a church with ministry but it was not of the Lord and a spiritual battle. Never the less the battle was intense and I ended up hospitalized from demonic attack. The Lord allowed this to happen to witness to others who refused to see it for what it was just as in the book of Job.

My boss was a Christian and I also attended his church but was not involved directly in that ministry. One day the pastor spoke from the pulpit ONLY God knows the heart of the people and I cringed, gave a loud sigh and slouched in my seat. My boss who I sat next to became aware of my gestures. After service my boss asked me why I reacted the way I did. I said what the pastor spoke was a partial truth making it a lie! Jesus will reveal the hearts of people to his TRUE, WILLING AND OBEDIENT servants to minister to the heart needs of the recipient. The pastor said this for one of two reasons or perhaps both reasons combined. First he is not seeking the Lord or the Lord’s desires for HIS people and second the pastor may not receive revelation because he will not act upon it! There is no need to give revelation where it is not fulfilled in obedience.

1 Samuel 23:10–12 (NKJV)

10 Then David said, “O Lord God of Israel, Your servant has certainly heard that Saul seeks to come to Keilah to destroy the city for my sake. 11 Will the men of Keilah deliver me into his hand? Will Saul come down, as Your servant has heard? O Lord God of Israel, I pray, tell Your servant.”

And the Lord said, “He will come down.”

12 Then David said, “Will the men of Keilah deliver me and my men into the hand of Saul?”

And the Lord said, “They will deliver you.”

1 Samuel 16:1–7 (NKJV)

David Anointed King

16 Now the Lord said to Samuel, “How long will you mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? Fill your horn with oil, and go; I am sending you to Jesse the Bethlehemite. For I have provided Myself a king among his sons.”

2 And Samuel said, “How can I go? If Saul hears it, he will kill me.”

But the Lord said, “Take a heifer with you, and say, ‘I have come to sacrifice to the Lord.’ 3 Then invite Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you what you shall do; you shall anoint for Me the one I name to you.”

4 So Samuel did what the Lord said, and went to Bethlehem. And the elders of the town trembled at his coming, and said, “Do you come peaceably?”

5 And he said, “Peaceably; I have come to sacrifice to the Lord. Sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice.” Then he consecrated Jesse and his sons, and invited them to the sacrifice.

6 So it was, when they came, that he looked at Eliab and said, “Surely the Lord’s anointed is before Him!”

7 But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”

Acts 5:3–5 (NKJV)

3 But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and keep back part of the price of the land for yourself? 4 While it remained, was it not your own? And after it was sold, was it not in your own control? Why have you conceived this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men but to God.”

5 Then Ananias, hearing these words, fell down and breathed his last. So great fear came upon all those who heard these things.

One of the very first things Jesus did while in His ministry on earth was to reveal and expose the hearts of people! If your heart is not right you will not receive Spirit and Truth even unto salvation! That is why the Holy Spirit convicts the heart/conscience of the person and they either adhere and submit or refused and walked away! This is also represented in Romans 1 with a reprobate mind. I pray I never have to deliver that word to anyone again. The Lord had me assisting a man who claimed he wanted deliverance but he kept dying the power of God unto deliverance. Meanwhile he claimed to be a Christian and went to church. The problem was he loved his sin more than the Lord and kept making excuses about not getting free. The Lord had me to tell him straight up and very blunt. I said the Lord has given me a Word for you that if you keep denying the sovereignty of the Lord Jesus to deliver you the Lord said He is about to turn you over to a reprobate mind to the point of NO RETURN OR SALVATION! I HOPE I NEVER HAVE TO SPEAK THOSE WORDS AGAIN TO ANYONE BUT I DID AS THE LORD SPOKE. The Lord revealed this mans heart not only to me but also to the man!

Here is the overall point I want to make. Do we minister to intellect or to the heart? How would Saul from Tarsus have gotten saved if Jesus had tried to speak to Saul’s intellect. Saul was a Pharisee’s Pharisee a scholar among scholars with very high intellect. Jesus exposed Saul’s heart!

Acts 9:3–5 (NKJV)

3 As he journeyed he came near Damascus, and suddenly a light shone around him from heaven. 4 Then he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?”

5 And he said, “Who are You, Lord?”

Then the Lord said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. It is hard for you to kick against the goads.”

The preaching today is totally void of speaking about matters of the heart! Which includes sin! Instead scripture is twisted, manipulated and taken totally out of context from Matthew 7 and people respond who are you to judge.

When I have confronted false prophets they use this scripture out of context against me.

Matthew 7:2 (NKJV)

2 For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.

The Holy Spirit had me rebuke him again.

1 Corinthians 2:15–16 (NKJV)

15 But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. 16 For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.

Now this point is critical so please pay attention to what I am saying here. I don’t proclaim to be righteous at all in fact I HAVE NO RIGHTEOUSNESS OF MY OWN. THE ONLY RIGHTEOUSNESS I HAVE IS IN CHRIST JESUS. SO WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT REVEALS TO YOU A MATTER OR CONCERN IT IS RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT. This is vital to equip you to stand just as Jesus did in the wilderness with Satan as IT IS WRITTEN. Because it was the Lord by revelation of the Holy Spirit that was speaking NOT me or me making judgment. Also judgment is rendering a decision similar to a verdict in court as Jesus is the righteous one who will pass “penalty” of the judgment. Vengeance is the Lord’s we are merely vessels the Lord works through.

I ended up getting kicked out of that seminary by exposing false prophets, false doctrines and much sin. I had already packed up knowing this was going to happen just as David inquired and knew Saul was hunting him down!

Notice the scripture states the mind of Christ. My actions were not of my own as it was the Holy Spirit that prompted me to confront this false prophet and the false prophet used scripture out of context just as Satan did with Jesus in the wilderness.

Acts 8:9–24 (NKJV)

The Sorcerer’s Profession of Faith

9 But there was a certain man called Simon, who previously practiced sorcery in the city and astonished the people of Samaria, claiming that he was someone great, 10 to whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, “This man is the great power of God.” 11 And they heeded him because he had astonished them with his sorceries for a long time. 12 But when they believed Philip as he preached the things concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, both men and women were baptized. 13 Then Simon himself also believed; and when he was baptized he continued with Philip, and was amazed, seeing the miracles and signs which were done.

If you have discernment you will see that we have sorcerers in the pulpits and people think he is wonderful so they give heed and sit under this demonic spirit and false teachings! They even state this man’s power is from God! Simon even got baptized! An outward act of deception of repentance which NEVER happened!

The Sorcerer’s Sin

14 Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them, 15 who, when they had come down, prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit. 16 For as yet He had fallen upon none of them. They had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 17 Then they laid hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.

18 And when Simon saw that through the laying on of the apostles’ hands the Holy Spirit was given, he offered them money, 19 saying, “Give me this power also, that anyone on whom I lay hands may receive the Holy Spirit.”

20 But Peter said to him, “Your money perish with you, because you thought that the gift of God could be purchased with money! 21 You have neither part nor portion in this matter, for your heart is not right in the sight of God. 22 Repent therefore of this your wickedness, and pray God if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you. 23 For I see that you are poisoned by bitterness and bound by iniquity.”

24 Then Simon answered and said, “Pray to the Lord for me, that none of the things which you have spoken may come upon me.”

How many spiritual pimps are in the pulpits today? How many think you can buy the anointing? Is that not the same as the five foolish virgins, perhaps it’s much worse! They had to go “buy” their lamp oil! You can’t buy the Holy Spirit! I seriously doubt that even 2 % of the church assembly truly belong to the Lord so what does that reflect on the church leadership and what spirit are they? There are ONLY two kingdoms and two types of Christ which is the TRUE LIVING CHRIST JESUS and Antichrist!

There is much conversation on why a pastor won’t preach on sin and the major reason is likely they are hirelings and false prophets who entertain “itchy ears” for personal gain whether financial gain, influence, pride or are they commissioned as masquerading ministers of righteousness working for Satan? Itchy ear preachers are often the judgment of those who sit in the pews as the Lord has turned them over to the desires of their own hearts.

Any preacher who says ONLY THE LORD KNOWS THE HEART is giving a partial truth thus rendering a lie. If the pastor won’t address or preach on sin the pastor himself likely has secret sin. Let us get real, humble with a contrite heart before the Lord and repent, cleansed and restored.

Satan will build your ministry quicker than the Lord because you need to die to “self” to have a real ministry with Christ Jesus.

2 Corinthians 11:1–15 (NKJV)

Concern for Their Faithfulness

11 Oh, that you would bear with me in a little folly—and indeed you do bear with me. 2 For I am jealous for you with godly jealousy. For I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. 3 But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4 For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted—you may well put up with it!

Paul and False Apostles

5 For I consider that I am not at all inferior to the most eminent apostles. 6 Even though I am untrained in speech, yet I am not in knowledge. But we have been thoroughly manifested among you in all things.

7 Did I commit sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached the gospel of God to you free of charge? 8 I robbed other churches, taking wages from them to minister to you. 9 And when I was present with you, and in need, I was a burden to no one, for what I lacked the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied. And in everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and so I will keep myself. 10 As the truth of Christ is in me, no one shall stop me from this boasting in the regions of Achaia. 11 Why? Because I do not love you? God knows!

12 But what I do, I will also continue to do, that I may cut off the opportunity from those who desire an opportunity to be regarded just as we are in the things of which they boast. 13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.

THE SPIRITUAL ORIGIN OF ATRIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

THE SPIRITUAL ORIGIN OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

As with any posting from anyone I do my best to try to communicate what is on my heart the best that I can. Please take all matters to the Lord in prayer. It is NOT my will that anyone be deceived. The enemy is after all of us, including me! I pray the Holy Spirit bears witness to all of you. If not then it could be for a different time in your walk with the Lord. DO NOT ACCEPT WHAT THE HOLY SPIRIT DOES NOT REVEAL BUT PRAY INTO IT. God bless the saints of the Lord and may the fullness of His love and spirit dwell and manifest richly within you.

Revelation 3:22 (NKJV)

22 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” ’ ”

There are many times we need to go back to the beginning of a matter to determine where things went astray as ignorance is doing the same thing over and over with the same bad outcome. Let us go back to the garden and see how the kingdom of darkness started in the first place and the results of submission to the serpent the devil!

Genesis 3:1–5 (NKJV)

The Temptation and Fall of Man

3 Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, “Has God indeed said, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?”

2 And the woman said to the serpent, “We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden; 3 but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not eat it, nor shall you touch it, lest you die.’ ”

4 Then the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. 5 For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”

What led to the fall of Eve was more than deception alone. Eve took ungodly advice which was contrary to the Word of God and she “entertained” this advice and words spoken to her. This happens even today as people do not seek the Lord themselves they take the advice, beliefs, teachings, preaching and recommendations from people verses the Lord Jesus.

Imagine walking with God in fellowship in the garden and knowing the voice of God and yet taking counsel from another entity or person. I once was in a church who allowed the saints to take turns leading bible study and when I did my study on “who’s voice are you listening to” the pastor shut down the bible study! I guess I should not be surprised as today the pastors present themselves as being God Almighty in the pulpits! Who wants to take the place of Christ Jesus? What spirit would shut down true spiritual food of the Word of God?

The knowledge received from the tree of knowledge of good and evil was NOT about good but strictly evil! Remember the devil calls good evil and evil good! The word good was an illusion as there is no truth in the father of lies! So by the Serpent putting good first the Serpent was exalting himself above what God the Father calls good! We know this because scripture tells us that Satan calls good evil and evil good! So Satan placed himself above the Father God and became god on the throne of our hearts! As I have stated in previous postings and writings the tree of the knowledge of good and evil was in the image and likeness of Satan! It is imperative to be rooted and grounded IN CHRIST JESUS BY HIS SPIRIT. When the prophets in the Old Testament spoke where they reading from a book? You see the Written Word without the Holy Spirit has no life and truth of meaning or application. Today we have many parrots in the pulpits with self interpretation of what is written without revelations of Spirit and Truth. Like I was telling a friend when I said too much scripture is taken out of context and I told him about “faith comes by hearing the Word of God”. He said that is why we need to read the Word. I said faith comes by hearing the VOICE OF GOD, as the WORD OF GOD WAS GOD BREATHED FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD! Jesus said my sheep hear my voice they follow me and I know them.

Isaiah 55:8–9 (NKJV)

8 “For My thoughts are not your thoughts,

Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord.

9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth,

So are My ways higher than your ways,

And My thoughts than your thoughts.

Proverbs 23:1–9 (NKJV)

23 When you sit down to eat with a ruler,

Consider carefully what is before you;

2 And put a knife to your throat

If you are a man given to appetite.

3 Do not desire his delicacies,

For they are deceptive food.

4 Do not overwork to be rich;

Because of your own understanding, cease!

5 Will you set your eyes on that which is not?

For riches certainly make themselves wings;

They fly away like an eagle toward heaven.

6 Do not eat the bread of a miser,

Nor desire his delicacies;

7 For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.

“Eat and drink!” he says to you,

But his heart is not with you.

8 The morsel you have eaten, you will vomit up,

And waste your pleasant words.

9 Do not speak in the hearing of a fool,

For he will despise the wisdom of your words.

What the Lord is referring to is the deceptive word of god which is not the true bread of life. You are partaking of a different spiritual bread! Jesus is the “Bread of Life”.

John 6:35 (NKJV)

35 And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.

2 Corinthians 11:4 (NKJV)

4 For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted—you may well put up with it!

Are you seeing what Paul says is in direct correlation to what the serpent did in the Garden of Eden. Do you see how a little leaven ruins the whole loaf of bread that you are eating! Do you see back in the garden when the Serpent said you will know good vs. evil but we know that the Serpent calls evil good and good evil! That is what happened by taking the seed/words of the Serpent. What Satan calls good is actually evil. What came first in what the Serpent offered now that we know he switches the meaning and spiritual attributes calling evil good. The Serpent placed himself before/above God the Father because the Serpent’s good is actually evil. He ascended above the Father in his speech! The Serpent subtly called Father God a liar by saying surely God has not said! Who is the accuser of the brethren! The tree of the forbidden fruit is in the likeness and image of Satan! You see it was much more than just sin because they became children of the devil in his image and likeness. It is total opposite of the TREE OF LIFE in the likeness of the Father! With the Serpent exchanging evil for good which god was the Serpent representing? The god of this world not the Kingdom of Heaven! The Serpent was actually saying you shall be as I am! A good tree cannot bear bad fruit and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. There are ONLY two kingdoms and two references to Fathers that Jesus spoke. The devil is your Father or Father God the True Living God the God above all gods. The Father was protecting His children by telling us NOT TO PARTAKE! WE MUST BELIEVE EVERY SINGLE WRITTEN WORD ACCORDING TO SPIRIT AND TRUTH! WE MUST ALSO BELIEVE WHAT THE HOLY SPEAKS TO US IN OUR DAILY WALK WITH THE LORD JESUS. There is so much that can be unpacked in Genesis 3:4. The accuser of the brethren, sowing unbelief/doubt, spirit of confusion, spirit of fear, lies and manipulation, pride, lack of provision, lack of knowledge, mockery, accusation, witchcraft, etc. Everything that Satan spiritually is was masquerading in that one verse if you choose to see it. Do you see how subtle the Serpent was at killing, stealing and destroying a child of God!

Romans 3:3–4 (NKJV)

3 For what if some did not believe? Will their unbelief make the faithfulness of God without effect? 4 Certainly not! Indeed, let God be true but every man a liar. As it is written:

“That You may be justified in Your words,

And may overcome when You are judged.”

Genesis 3:4–5 (NKJV)

4 Then the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. 5 For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”

If you are an identical twin are you your brother or sister? While you have so much in common and may even share in inner feelings you are still your own person. Do you answer to what you were named or another name? You are an individual but still connected in many ways. Can people around tell you apart? Do not be fooled by appearances you must know the person of Christ Jesus.

Isaiah 61:3 (NKJV)

3 To console those who mourn in Zion,

To give them beauty for ashes,

The oil of joy for mourning,

The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;

That they may be called trees of righteousness,

The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.”

Jeremiah 15:16–21 (NKJV)

16 Your words were found, and I ate them,

And Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart;

For I am called by Your name,

O Lord God of hosts.

17 I did not sit in the assembly of the mockers,

Nor did I rejoice;

I sat alone because of Your hand,

For You have filled me with indignation.

18 Why is my pain perpetual

And my wound incurable,

Which refuses to be healed?

Will You surely be to me like an unreliable stream,

As waters that fail?

The Lord Reassures Jeremiah

19 Therefore thus says the Lord:

“If you return,

Then I will bring you back;

You shall stand before Me;

If you take out the precious from the vile,

You shall be as My mouth.

Let them return to you,

But you must not return to them.

20 And I will make you to this people a fortified bronze wall;

And they will fight against you,

But they shall not prevail against you;

For I am with you to save you

And deliver you,” says the Lord.

21 “I will deliver you from the hand of the wicked,

And I will redeem you from the grip of the terrible.”

So artificial intelligence is another means and attempt to destroy the saints in the last days. If you can’t discern the spirits now with your own personal rationalization by spiritual revelation how will you discern when submitted to artificial inelegance. You will become even less reliant on your own spiritual/physical ability to reason and become dependent upon something not even human!

I watched a teaching on AI and it was stated that AI has the ability to duplicate sound waves similarly as the Lord spoke things into creation. There will be a method of using sound waves through AI to stimulate a false spirit which will render a false witness and testimony which will be euphoric and sensual which will become a living experience in the place of Christ Jesus withing the hearts of people. I have already witnessed in my travels for the Lord Jesus this spirit of sensual love that mimics the Holy Spirit but appeals to the carnality of the flesh! It is also feminine in nature, gentle, coddling, comforting and very often renders laughter and loss of control of your physical ability of self control. Self control is a manifestation of the Holy Spirit not the lack of control.

It is imperative to have the mind of Christ Jesus established within you and time is getting short. Jesus must be LORD of you life and not just Savior and if you are not walking in the Spirit of the Lord discerning what is going on it will be easy to be overcome by the beast system.

Artificial intelligence is the end of the age and ready to be implemented as I write this. The final testing is being done and it will be implemented in the near future. I could expound more on AI but I will leave that up to you to search out.

Philippians 2:5–11 (NKJV)

The Humbled and Exalted Christ

5 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, 7 but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. 9 Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Without fulfilling line 5 you won’t be able to fulfill the rest of the scriptures just as Psalm 91 if you don’t fulfill line 1 the remaining of the Psalm will not apply. It is what it is and you can’t “name it and claim it”. “Let” is a requirement just as in Ephesians 6 you must put on the whole armor of God!

You must become it by the grace of God by dying to yourself so Christ may rule and reign upon your heart. The church has kept people spiritually ignorant but in the end we are held accountable as individuals because it was the desires of your heart not to seek the Lord in Spirit and Truth and continue to grow in deeper love and devotion to Christ Jesus. I suggest you read 1 Enoch which will reveal what the fallen angels taught humanity and how to destroy humanity through technological development. The Jews would have had these writings and had knowledge pertaining to theses writings that is why there are two references in our bibles to Enoch.

Revelation 3:22 (NKJV)

22 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” ’ ”
