There Will Be No Republicans In Heaven

There Will Be No Republicans in Heaven Dearly beloved, elect of God through Jesus Christ, from before the foundation of the world, greetings. I was given this title to use because it will get attention but this isn’t really about Republicans or any other political party. Political parties can’t prevent what is coming nor do they care to try. They are too busy serving special interests not humanity. No, this message is about the fallen state of Christianity in America and the world. The church is no longer the Body of Christ, but has been sold into slavery to the world. But there is a remnant not yet seen, the true Body of Christ, and they are the ones I’m writing to. As Paul wrote the Thessalonians, ”For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloak of covetousness, God is witness”, and neither will I. Read 2nd Timothy 3:1-9 1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 Traitors, heady, high minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. 9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was. But isn’t that exactly what man wants today??? Just like the message that Paul gave Timothy in 2nd Timothy 4: 3-4, it says, 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. Let’s start by making one thing crystal clear. God loved us so much that he gave His only begotten Son as sacrifice so we could live an abundant life now and eternally with Jesus in His kingdom. Satan, along with the help of men, has disregarded this and in fact has endeavored to make this gift of God an extremely heavy burden to follow, or on the other extreme, a fairy tale, sufficient to make us feel good but with the understanding that it’s not real. The whole purpose of this letter is to alert Christians that we have gotten off track and exhort them to seek Jesus and Him alone for the answers that we need to please Him. The time is truly short and our redemption is at hand. Men of God more than ever must draw close to our redeemer and be ready to fulfill His purpose in our 2

lives. It’s time to awake from the slumber of religion that has been on us for so long and convinced us that friendship with the world is ok. This letter is not intended to be an indictment or a condemnation of anyone. You can believe that because in many ways, I’m as guilty as anyone for the errors that I’m addressing here. This is just a statement of truth, “You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.” This information at times may sound harsh and in some ways it is, but it must have sounded harsh when Jesus told the Church of the Laodiceans that because they were not hot or cold, he would spew them out. Also read what James 4:4-10 says. 4 You adulterous people, don't you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. 5 Or do you think Scripture says without reason that the spirit he caused to live in us envies intensely? 6 But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." 7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9 Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. 10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.

Pretty harsh, wouldn’t you agree? The Apostles said this in hopes that people would repent and be saved and not lost. That is my intent as well. Read Ephesians 4: 13-20. 13 until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. 14 Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming. 15 Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ. 16 From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work. 17 So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. 18 They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts. 19 Having lost all sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality so as to indulge in every kind of impurity, with a continual lust for more. 20 You, however, did not come to know Christ that way. And again read what Hebrews says.

12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do. Christians ignorantly entertain evil everyday because of delusion. The world leads us to believe that the evil we should be concerned with is evil as defined by the so called moral majority. Things like Satanists, drug dealers, murderers and other heinous things that are easy to identify. But the most evil things are harder to see because they are hidden behind a veil of religion and false righteousness. This evil uses God and Jesus to deceive people while furthering the works of Satan or that of their own evil hearts of unbelief, and there is a difference. This is not a new phenomenon look at the Sadducees and Pharisees. In the end, they delivered Jesus to the Gentiles to murder Him so they could continue their wicked ways. This time, the religious leaders of the world will again join with the ranks of unbelievers to help usher in and support the antiChrist. It’s already happening. I was recently in a Christian Family Book Store and as I perused the aisle looking for a book, “Ever Increasing Faith”, I was shocked to see a book titled, “The Gospel According To Oprah”. At first I was dismayed but realized that the store was full of books written by unbelievers. After all it’s a book sales business, nothing more. This letter may not be of interest to some folks. Below is a list. If you are a non-Christian Jew and have organized a so called Christian operation to get Christians to financially support nonChristian Jews, this is not for you. The Jews are the chosen people of God, through which the promises of God were fulfilled and are being fulfilled today. The Jews were the people through which 5

Jesus came. The Jews were the people that were cut from the tree of God so the Gentiles could be grafted in and after the times of the Gentles are fulfilled, the Jews will be grafted back in. The Jews have paid a great price so the Gentiles could know God. In fact the Gentiles are being used by God to make the Jews jealous for God. Jews who have converted to Christianity should be supported and embraced as family by Christian believers. We, as adopted Jews, should always lift our Jewish brothers in prayer, requesting God to restore them to Himself. If you are a businessman that joined a large church to gain a customer base, not for you. If you are a politician that gives lip service to Christianity to further your campaign or career, not for you. If you attend the same church or same kind of church because it’s the same as your parents attended, but have never experienced a rebirth in Christ, not for you If you support a church that allows or promotes discrimination based on race, gender, or ethnicity, not for you. If you support a church that allows or promotes homosexual and lesbian lifestyles, not for you. To clarify, God loves all men and women the same. There is no favoritism as God is love and there is no variance in Him. But the lifestyles are another issue. In this present time a call is going out to embrace gay, lesbian, transsexual and bi-sexual lifestyles. Don’t give in to this evil plan to turn the truth of God into a lie. Men that lay with men and women that lay with women are an abomination to God and they will not inherit eternal life if they choose to do such things. Read Leviticus 18:22, Romans 2:27-32, and 1 Corinthians 6:9-10. The same goes for adulterers, thieves, liars, backbiters, slanderers, gossips, manslayers and everything else that’s contrary to the word of God.

If you choose a life contrary to the doctrine of God, it’s all the same in the end, separation from God!!! Some Christians will be persecuted by their employers or governments over this issue but rejoice when you are. It will be our privilege to speak out for Jesus on this issue as well as many others during these last days. Never be ashamed of or compromise the Word of God, but speak the truth in love and Jesus will be glorified. It is written, “Let the nations rage, it is God that makes them rise and fall.” Wicked men that deny God think that they are in a position to force people to deny Jesus but they couldn’t be more wrong. They are going to experience a paradigm shift beyond their wildest imagination. If you support a church that allows or even promotes that women are to be used, abused or manipulated, not for you. If you support a church that allows or promotes women to have authority over men, not for you. It is written by Paul that women are not permitted to speak in the church and it was not allowed that a woman should have authority over the man. If you support a church that mingles the Jewish Law with Grace so the parishioners can be justified by works, not for you. If you are a controlling pastor afraid to let the Holy Spirit rule your services and keep your people under a heavy hand, you are not feeding Jesus’ sheep and this is not for you. This letter is also not for or about those that do not believe in Jesus, but about deceived Christians, that after conversion, they have been drawn into the ways of the world. Believers that have been deceived into believing that the world can be saved by politics and wars. People that have been deceived by the religious leaders, so called, that have sold themselves out for the riches of 7

this world and so seek to lead others in the way of Baal to increase their own wealth. So if you are born again, but not yet baptized with the Holy Spirit as witnessed in the Acts of the Apostles, make that your first priority as you will never really understand the Word of God without it. If you are born again and Spirit filled, use this as a guide for self examination. The purpose of this writing is to shout a warning to all Christians. Read 2 Corinthians 6:17. Let’s be clear, people in America want religions that are like sweaters, put one on and cover up, but nothing on the inside has to change. They can keep their hate, envy, gossip, backbiting, lust, fear, homosexuality and any other deed of the flesh they embrace. They can profess salvation and boast about their self righteousness and in secret, continue to live rebellious lives apart from Jesus. To date, it's working well for Americans as well as those in other countries. They, profess Godliness but deny the power there of. That's why so many "Christians", can confess God and still support tolerance for everything from abortion, to teen sex, homosexuality, and killing wars for oil. Those that deny Jesus completely are no worse off than these people. It appears to be a very common belief that people get born again and think that’s it, when in fact, that’s just the beginning. I’m speaking of people that really get born again. One group has a mantra that says, “Once saved always saved”, and truly believes it. There are many Christian sects that follow similar false teachings. How do these teachings flourish? Because most Christians don’t ever take the time to read the covenant that God gave us. They are content to let someone else read it and tell them what it says and what it means. And they, just like King Saul never know Jesus through a personal relationship. Read how King Saul was going to battle and wondered how the war would go. Ordinarily he would go to Samuel the priest and request, “Ask your God, how will the battle end?”, and Samuel would tell him. In this particular instance, Samuel had died and Saul, adding to his sins, went through a medium to summon Samuel. The point being was the King of Israel didn’t know God on his own, and referred to Him as Samuel’s God. Many Christians 8

are in the same condition today and count on the pastor or priest to stand in their place before God. And many pastor’s and priests are more than willing to do this because they then have control over these believers. That’s good for their business. The problem is that unlike Samuel the priest, these modern pastors and priests are willing to do this but don’t know God either, for if they did, they would lead the believer directly to the throne and then get out of the way. This is why after big rallies and revivals, most converts fall away and many that hang on become lukewarm at best. The leaders of these events glory in all of the conversions but then leave town before investing the time to see roots grown. Very few converts are inspired enough to go on their journey alone and fail to read and search the Covenant to get to know the one that saved them. Most are too busy with other activities, lazy, or in some cases too afraid to see what the Covenant holds for us. No matter what the excuse is, many people are deceived and without leadership, and never know the Covenant. There are many, many examples of people being deceived in the name of Jesus. James Jones always comes to mind as a worse case scenario but so do many prominent religions that are with us today. They teach people to emulate the Jews or earn their way to heaven, or fool people into believing that they can get into heaven by some mythical back door. And there are many more religious scams that people buy into because they never took the time to see what God’s word actually says. We shall reap what we sow if we neglect our obligation to know the Word of The Living God through Jesus. Read the parable of the sower of seeds. But know this, men choose to believe what they want to believe. Even after being touched by Jesus they will often read the scriptures and pick out the things that they like and disregard the rest. One man that couldn’t believe that speaking in tongues was for him went about teaching others the same thing saying that tongues wasn’t for today as well as denying the other miraculous gifts. Where in the Bible does it say that??? It doesn’t. It’s just one example of men twisting the Word of God to suit what they WANT to believe. Another group states that Jesus never drank wine. How ridiculous. But needless to say, for the sake 9

of belonging to the club, countless others consent to the lie and go along. What is most interesting about this issue is that after men deny God’s Word and bad things happen in their lives or the lives of loved ones, the same people blame God for their misfortune and ask, “How could God let this happen?” Bad things happen when we stray from God’s truth and manipulate His Word to fit our chosen lives. The information in this letter may not help the people listed above. Those people are damned to eternal separation from Jesus unless they repent and give themselves to Jesus. Even though they may sit in Christian churches, they are still numbered with the unbelievers of the world. It is written, “Be not deceived, God is not mocked. What so ever a man shall sow, the same shall he also reap.” You can fool most men all day long but you will never fool God. It may be that you may support these churches because you are ignorant of what the Word of God says. If so, this letter IS FOR YOU!!! Are you born again and in a church that doesn’t believe that tongues, miraculous healings, casting out demons, and even talking to and hearing God is not for today? This is typically a church that has a pastor that keeps everything under his sole control to make sure the Spirit remains quenched. Please leave and find a better church that believes in being Spirit filled with all His gifts and begin to grow in your knowledge of Him. Are you born again and Spirit filled and in the same kind of church and have you compromised what you know is true just so you could be accepted there? Justifying your compromise by telling yourself that God has placed you there to teach them? Please repent of your falsehood and find a church that is a real representation of Christ. Are you born again and Spirit filled and belong to a church where they preach you must speak in tongues to be saved? You are wrong! That philosophy is an error. It is likely that in this church people are given to familiar spirits and soulish anointing. From time to time you might witness the members barking like dogs, laughing uncontrollably, rolling around on the floor, or handling snakes to 10

prove their spirituality. I question your salvation and Spirit infilling experience if you have been at this practice for any length of time. Anyone that has met the Lord and been Spirit filled won’t be fooled by this activity very long and would have left this church right away. To everyone, find a church that believes in being filled with the Holy Spirit with His gifts. (Read Mark 16:16-18 and the Acts of the Apostles) A church that preaches God’s word in its entirety. (If a church spends most of it’s time in the Old Testament, it’s not really seeking Jesus rather it’s trying to live by some bylaws) Find a church that holds its members accountable for the way they live. Because they love each other enough to be concerned when they see a brother or sister error from the truth and are brave enough to confront them about the error. Then visit the church on prayer night, if they have one. If the church is strong in Christ, the prayer night will be attended by most of the members of the church. If the church is weak in Christ or playing games about it, you will probably only find a few old folks whose hearts are for God and are praying to cover the church or more likely you will find people that have nothing better to do in attendance. They won’t be praying much but rather will spend time in fellowship with whoever else shows up. It’s likely that the pastor will be doing most of what prayer there is so he can maintain the course he wants to follow. The church where you belong may not be an established church but a body of believers that meet in each others homes. That OK but don’t misunderstand, being where you belong is your responsibility. If the virtues I just described are not in your church, why are you? I am not advocating that you don’t belong to the Body of Christ because to achieve anything meaningful for Him, you must be. To help the Body, you must be in an active relationship with Jesus. If you can’t walk with Him alone, then the Body will just be a crutch for you because even though you are in the Body you are apart from Him. And some will say that the Body is a crutch for some and I agree. From time to time we all need shoring up, me as much as anyone. I’m not referring to those that need occasional help, I’m referring to those that have never committed to Christ that are just hiding out in the body. It’s no 11

different than a sports team. Occasionally a player gets hurt but the team doesn’t drop them but in fact keeps them on the roster and carries them till they recover. But if a player comes and goes as they please, skipping practice or disregards the coaches instructions, the team will, in fact, drop that player. However, in the real world, it’s the Body of Jesus that will usher in His return by collectively doing His will. You are required to be in The Body of Christ and that’s not just any church that you are comfortable in. The Body will challenge you and stretch you and facilitate opportunities for you to grow in, and yes, sacrifice in. The Body will not give you a comfortable place to retreat into your own righteousness because the Body will operate in the Spirit and will discern the hearts of its members. The purpose of the Body is to foster growth in Jesus to fulfill His will and prepare us to reign with Him. Anything short of that and we miss the true joy He has planned for us. Many are finding the Body of Christ in home churches where people come together and serve God by caring for each other without the financial pitfalls that the traditional church has fallen into and in my opinion, that’s great. Keep in mind that this information is not intended to make you feel good about yourself. There are thousands of authors making huge dollars from millions of books that are written for that purpose. Quite the contrary, I hope this letter will convict you of your apathy and even anger you enough to read God’s Word to prove or disprove what I’m saying. And when you read God’s Word, you will be convicted. Actually, that’s why a lot of people don’t read the word because you can’t read it without being humbled and becoming aware of areas in your life that need God’s grace, mercy and restoration to Him. Men say they don’t read the Bible because when they do, they don’t understand it or they say, “It’s open to interpretations.” Actually it’s very understandable to men that truly want God’s will for their lives. Those that don’t want to hear God’s Word will say they don’t understand it because they don’t want to understand it. They have read enough to know this, God’s Word is like a two edged sword that will cut to your heart and reveal your 12

innermost secrets. If you allow it to, it will draw your heart into God’s mercy and grace and the abundant life that Jesus desires you to have. When you read God’s Word and feel convicted about some area of your life, rejoice! Don’t fear or pull back. Rather embrace it and know that it is God trying to bring grace and holiness into your life. So when you see sin in yourself, confess it and be forgiven and cleansed. Then thank God for his mercy and love for you. First John 1:9 says, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us of all unrighteousness.” Read 2 Peter 1:19 - 21 1:19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 1:21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. Read 2 Timothy 3:16 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 3:17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. I don’t know about you but, “and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness”, doesn’t necessarily sound like feel good things to me. These sound more like training issues being addressed, and training isn’t often fun but is hard work if you want to succeed. I didn’t say it was not 13

rewarding because it is. But to reach the reward we have to work hard, and we have to submit, and commit to the hard work. Another reason that the Scriptures are not intended to be individually interpreted is that when people try to do so, they only end up twisting the Word to suit their own agenda and make them say what they want to hear. Read 2 Peter 3:16, “ As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable twist as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.” . If you can’t or won’t submit and commit to knowing God’s word, and accepting it at face value and walk in it, you will not see the rewards and they are tremendous. It is written, “Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” Also, have you heard that it’s written that faith cometh by hearing and hearing cometh by the Word of God? How important is faith? Read Hebrews starting at 11:6, ”And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.” We will speak more about faith and the topic of healing later. What defines you? Is it your job, your family, your sports team, your politics? Are you a Republican, Democrat, Teamster, Methodist, Baptist, member at the Moose Lodge? What? When people ask and you tell others who you are, what you represent, or what’s important in your life, how do you answer? If anything defines you other than your relationship with Jesus, you will miss eternity. “Where your treasure is, is where your heart is.” If, when you share with people who you are, and what you are passionate

14

about, you don’t testify for Jesus, you are falling short of your assignment from Him. Since Adam fell and gave his authority to Satan, the world has been a lie but even more so now in the last days. Everything here is a lie or a distortion of the truth except the Word of Jesus Christ!!! The Bible says that in the last days will come great delusion and this has never been more evident than today. Better living through chemistry, the American dream, politicians, salespeople, court systems, and worst of all, churches, all lying nonstop to gain the wealth of their parishioners and customers. Doesn't it seem odd that we live in a day where all men only aspire to get more wealth? Everything is measured by how much money a person can amass. We constantly proclaim the majesty of education but the whole purpose of the education, so called, is to make money. How noble. And Christians are right on board even though the education that they worship denies the One they say they believe in. How can this be? Everything here is a lie rather medicine, none of which a Christian needs, beauty aids, TV, sports, it's all here to keep our eye off Jesus, and it's working. Churches everywhere are emulating everything of the world. Church sports teams that fight over the game, music that sounds just like the world's rock and roll, except the words, if you can hear them. Along with priests and pastors preaching everything from politics to insurance to racism all in the name of Jesus, a person they never knew. Why? Money! They have even elected to reject the teachings on the evil of loving money, and they never tell the people that you can't serve God and money and certainly they overlook the scripture that says, “Godliness with contentment is great gain”. They feel compelled to give the people what people want otherwise they fear losing people from the roster and there goes the income. Every Christian in the world today needs to repent in sackcloth and ashes and beg God for his mercy for what the Churches have done and are doing. The churches are full of darkness, mental and physical sickness, adulteries, lying, stealing, greed and every evil work. Churches even promote books 15

that say you’re ok, I’m ok, go ahead, accept every lifestyle and every religion, don’t be afraid. Do what makes you feel good. One man in the Bible actually asked Jesus, “What is truth?” Like us he was only trying to justify what he was about to do. Jesus says, “I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father but by Me.” Know that God loves you completely and you may actually believe in God but only Jesus Christ can save you! Every other way is false. It must be said that even though millions of Christians choose to practice pagan ways, Christianity does not allow for ceremony, rituals, praying to angels or for that matter, dead people. Understand, artifacts, or pictures of Jesus, nor any other physical thing that represents God or provides any justification for us is accepted by God. If your religion endeavors to imitate segments of the Jewish law like Adventists do, and believe it will get you to Heaven, you are being deceived! All we have is faith in an invisible God through a risen Jesus Christ. Jesus asked, “Will I find faith when I return?” Read Col 2:-23 2:6 So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him, 2:7 rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness. 2:8 See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ. 2:9 For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, 2:10 and you have been given fullness in Christ, who is the head over every power and authority. 2:11 In him you were also circumcised, in the putting off of the sinful nature, not with a circumcision done by the hands of men but with the circumcision done by Christ, 16

2:12 having been buried with him in baptism and raised with him through your faith in the power of God, who raised him from the dead. 2:13 When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, 2:14 having canceled the written code, with its regulations, that was against us and that stood opposed to us; he took it away, nailing it to the cross. 2:15 And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross. 2:16 Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. 2:17 These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ. 2:18 Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you for the prize. Such a person goes into great detail about what he has seen, and his unspiritual mind puffs him up with idle notions. 2:19 He has lost connection with the Head, from whom the whole body, supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as God causes it to grow. 2:20 Since you died with Christ to the basic principles of this world, why, as though you still belonged to it, do you submit to its rules: 2:21 "Do not handle! Do not taste! Do not touch!"? 17

2:22 These are all destined to perish with use, because they are based on human commands and teachings. 2:23 Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-imposed worship, their false humility and their harsh treatment of the body, but they lack any value in restraining sensual indulgence. Someone once said that a wise man doesn’t know all the answers but does know the right questions. It’s past time for Christians to ask themselves some very tough questions. Ask yourself, why are so many Christians deceived? It’s because, “they received not a love of the truth.”, and as is also written, they are deceived by their own lusts. There are a great number of people that believe in God and confess Jesus but are continually involved in trying to have as much of this world as possible. This alone creates great conflict. It is written, “That if the love of the world is in you, then the love of God is not.” How much turmoil do you think this causes in our souls? Much in every way until we put to silence the voice of the world that calls us and begin to listen to that still small voice from God that continually speaks to us about our walk with Jesus. It will be one or the other for again, “we cannot serve God AND mammon.” This ties directly into Christians that have fallen into celebrity worship along with the unbelieving world. We place people on pedestals and make them millionaires just because that can sing, dance, play sports or preach really well. People including Christians spend their hard earned dollars just to be entertained and escape their own reality and try to live vicariously through their idols. Money that, if you have excess, could be better spent in 18

service to Christ. And I’m not talking of bigger churches or parking lots or angelic shrines or salaries that allow Church employees to live far better than their flock. I’m talking about equalization in the body of Christ. To our shame there are really rich people in our body along with really poor ones. And don’t use the excuse about some people are poor because they are lazy. I’m talking about hard working brothers and sisters that have greater financial burdens. Don’t you know that God places us in the body to prove us? Perhaps He places the less fortunate people among us to see what we will do. Members of the flock that have been abundantly blessed hold back the blessings while fulfilling their own worldly lusts trying to acquire every material thing they can. And church leaders pretend not to see this because they don’t want to offend the wealthy ones and chance that they may leave. Read the Acts of the Apostles or read what 2 Corinthians 8:9-15 says about giving. 8:9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that you through his poverty might become rich. 8:10 I give a judgment in this: for this is expedient for you, who were the first to start a year ago, not only to do, but also to be willing. 8:11 But now complete the doing also, that as there was the readiness to be willing, so there may be the completion also out of your ability. 8:12 For if the readiness is there, it is acceptable according to what you have, not according to what you don't have. 8:13 For this is not that others may be eased and you distressed,

8:14 but for equality. Your abundance at this present time supplies their lack, that their abundance also may become a supply for your lack; that there may be equality. 8:15 As it is written, "He who gathered much had nothing left over, and he who gathered little had no lack." However, if you are a church going Republican, you won’t get it. You will need to read Mark 10:25, “It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter to into Heaven.” If a pastor preached this, rich Christians would possibly walkout or justify themselves by saying wealth is relative, “I’m not really rich compared to really rich people.” Very sad indeed. But to the honest hearted Christian, it is written, “If we have food and raiment let us be therewith content.” And it is also written, “Some think that gain is Godliness but Godliness with contentment is great gain.” Since we are asking tough questions, when were Christians deceived into believing that education was some kind of deity, believing that education, so called, held the answers to man’s problems? For all of man’s great education, things are no better today that they were 6 thousand years ago. Sure some men have used education to manipulate people and have amassed great wealth for themselves and yes we have more luxuries. These luxuries do allow us more leisure time to pursue pleasurable interests like TV, video games, watching or playing sports. Of course there is always gambling or travel, just to mention a few things that people love more than God. But what about mankind as a whole? Racism and sexism, we still have that. Extreme poverty and hunger, yes we still have that. Violent crime against individuals and humanity as a whole, yes we still have that too. Resources being abused by mankind, yes we still have that. Planet being polluted and destroyed by industry barons, hey, educated 20

men specifically created this one. Education isn’t a god as some would have you believe. In fact deceived men have almost required education to be worshipped while the same education denounces or denies the Living God altogether and worldly Christians go right along with it touting the virtue of education as being the answer to man’s problems rather than announcing that man’s sinful nature is the problem and only repentance and salvation can resolve a man’s problems. Why? Because education only serves man’s greed for money and for the love of money, men will deny the truth of God and follow a lie. Whatever really good that education could bring is lost because men lack the integrity to make it happen. By the actions of those in control of government revenue, they confirm what I am saying. Is education really the servant of mankind? If it is then why don’t all people in America have access to the best educational opportunities? Why do the wealthy get the best schools and educators while the poor get squat? Is it because we really want to maintain the class distinction? I think that’s it, as I once heard a politician state that if we all had the same educational opportunities and success, who would haul the trash? Not to mention, if education is really so important, why do educators have to struggle with governments to get paid a decent wage. So much so that they have to organize unions to fight for them. Isn’t this a message telling teachers how unimportant they really are to our society? Education without Godly wisdom is Satan’s tail at best. Another lie of education and those that love it is the medical profession. Let me start by saying that the medical profession is a blessing from God to the unbeliever. But why believers put their trust in medicine is beyond me. How can we say that we believe that God created everything including human beings and can raise the dead, now, and at the resurrection, but can’t have faith to let God alone heal them without the help of men? I have heard every excuse from, “I’m being afflicted like Job”, to, “He is trying my faith to see if I’ll endure”, “or “I’m not worthy to be healed.” If that’s true, then why are you trying to get healed at all? If God isn’t 21

willing to heal you, why are you then running to a man for help? The truth is that our faith is weak and we are either afraid to step out in faith or too lazy or too impatient to wait on God or just plain afraid that God won’t come through. Or we are not willing to go before the living God, and bear our soul, see the sin we committed that brought on the problem and seek forgiveness and cleansing and the subsequent healing!!! Read the Gospels, this is how it works. One account of a woman that had an issue of blood for many years and SUFFERED at the hands of many physicians and was made worse off not better. Then she touched the hem of Jesus’ garment and was immediately healed! Don’t think that this was easy for her. Jesus was on the move and being thronged by a huge number of people. She, in her weakened state had to struggle mightily to get to him but was willing to do whatever it took to reach him. Her faith was strong because she realized that doctors couldn’t help her, in her heart she also knew that if she could only touch the hem of his garment, she would be made whole. I once had a sister tell a story of her affliction from a serious disease. When she was first diagnosed, she asked herself and God what she had done to deserve this. She determined that she hadn’t done anything wrong and so justified herself and said that God told her to go to the doctor. This was also easier to do than seeking God for His healing. Later, she met another person that had the same disease and was able to share her experience and help them through the ordeal. She then surmised that God had afflicted her so that she could help others by sharing her experience. Interestingly the sister never mentioned leading this person to salvation and so even if healed by the doctors would only be subject to some other disease or sickness. This is where we, as Christians, fall short. We are not willing to fast and pray or to stand naked before God and be examined and have our sins exposed, or we have not been properly trained by those who are supposed to feed His sheep. Unfortunately, the church leaders are not able to teach something they don’t believe in themselves. Read the book of James. It basically says that if we are afflicted, call the church elders and get anointed with oil and have them pray for you and YOU WILL BE 22

HEALED. And IF YOU HAVE SINNED, IT WILL BE FORGIVEN!!! No maybe or might be, you will be healed and forgiven if you have sinned. It’s a promise that God cannot break. You just have to believe it. One man asked Jesus to help his unbelief and Jesus did. So, if that’s an issue, take that to him as well. There is nothing that Jesus can’t do. As for the sin issue, it’s written that sickness and death are the wages of sin. Paul also wrote in 1 Corinthians 11:27 that many were sick and slept among them because they took Communion unrighteously, not discerning the body and blood of Jesus. That happens somewhere every Saturday or Sunday. Not withstanding that Jesus knew that we would make mistakes like this and that’s why God gave us this provision. If you occasionally get a cold or even the flu, it’s no big deal and I wouldn’t get too worked up about it. But if you are constantly being attacked by sickness or something seriously wrong comes into your life, go to Jesus, open your heart and see what has transpired to allow Satan’s attack on you. Seek Jesus and he will deliver you and cleanse you of all unrighteousness. This will fulfill another scripture that says, “I came that they would have abundant life now and eternal life to come”. If you are always afflicted, I don’t see that as an abundant life and I doubt if any unbelievers would either. And they are watching. And if you say you have no sin, you deceive yourself. Another thing to think about when you put your trust in man is this, Jeremiah 17 says, “Blessed is every man that trusts in God, cursed is every man that trusts in man”. I truly am amazed that Christians contribute so much to the medical world. Because of fear, drug companies have grown into a trillion dollar a year industry and for the most part only make drugs that help people live with their affliction. I mean really, what incentive do they actually have to find cures when the real money is in sickness management. Would they lie to us about curing cancer, or diabetes, or AIDS? You better believe they would. There are only three ways to get money. Work and earn it, invest money to get more money or get someone to give the money to you. The 23

easiest is get people to give it to you and because of fear, people give till it hurts. I can understand the unbeliever but the Christian has a better way available to them. Not to mention that millions of Christians make rich those of the psychology and psychiatry profession. Instead of going to Jesus, you go to another man, pay him and get his advice. Some pastors actually encourage this in the church. Maybe it’s because a great number of pastors hold degrees in these fields. Heck, for all I know they may get referral dollars from their friends that are psychologists and psychiatrists for sending them patients. Christians should be the most mentally healthy people on the face of the entire planet. There is nothing that we can’t take to the throne of God and get fixed. We have brothers and sisters to talk and share with and if need be there are members in the body that are gifted that can intercede for us bring deliverance for any problem, mental or physical. But again, this is an area not being taught by church leaders that don’t believe it themselves. Look at the situation yourself. We have been brainwashed for many years by marketers for drug companies and the propaganda being pushed has increased a thousand percent in recent years. If you spend any time at all watching TV or listening to radio or read any number of publications, you will be bombarded with drug ads. Everything from Botox to Rogain, to Celebrex, to Viagra. Pills to make you young, lose weight miraculously, sleep better or just have a better outlook on life. Most of which won’t do a darn thing to improve your life. And the drug companies know it but will deceive us in the twinkle of an eye if it will get us on board. Think about it for a moment, and look around you. How many people do you know that are on some kind of maintenance drug? Not just for illness but also vitamins, hair growth, better complexions, you name it. If every person in America takes 1 pill a day and most do, and the average pill costs $1.00 each, that’s a lot of money being literally poured down a drain. All that medication, mans synthetic concoctions going into our water supply and because it is a synthetic compound, the ground or our water treatment plants can’t clean it from the water so we are all being slowly poisoned by other people’s medications. 24

Not good. It’s not sin per say to go to a doctor or take medicine. But if you do so without first going to God, it’s a dangerous gamble at best. If it’s not of faith it is sin. Read Hebrews 11 starting at verse 24. 11:24 By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh's daughter. 11:25 He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a short time. 11:26 He regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward. A good example of a man’s sin catching up to him is David, the apple of God’s eye. Yes as you know if you have read the Word, David sinned, many times, yet was blessed of God because David’s heart was with God and when God revealed his sin, David repented, cried out to the God that he loved and that loved him back. God healed David and David praised God, just like God planned it to be. Read Psalms 51. 1 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. 2 Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. 3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. 4 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.

25

5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. 6 Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom. 7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. 8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. 9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities. 10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. 11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. 12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. 13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee. 14 Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness. 15 O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise. 16 For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering. 17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

26

18 Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem. 19 Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.

Also Read Psalms 50:14-23 14 Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High: 15 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me. 16 But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth? 17 Seeing thou hatest instruction, and casteth my words behind thee. 18 When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, and hast been partaker with adulterers. 19 Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit. 20 Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother's son. 21 These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes. 22 Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.

27

23 Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his conversation aright will I shew the salvation of God. What else does the Word say on faith? Read Hebrews 12 also. 1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. 2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3 Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. 4 In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood. 5 And you have forgotten that word of encouragement that addresses you as sons: "My son, do not make light of the Lord's discipline, and do not lose heart when he rebukes you, 6 because the Lord disciplines those he loves, and he punishes everyone he accepts as a son." 7 Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as sons. For what son is not disciplined by his father? 8 If you are not disciplined (and everyone undergoes discipline), then you are illegitimate children and not true sons.

28

9 Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of our spirits and live! 10 Our fathers disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, that we may share in his holiness. 11 No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it. 12 Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees. 13 "Make level paths for your feet," so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed. Warning Against Refusing God 14 Make every effort to live in peace with all men and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord. 15 See to it that no one misses the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many. 16 See that no one is sexually immoral, or is godless like Esau, who for a single meal sold his inheritance rights as the oldest son. 17 Afterward, as you know, when he wanted to inherit this blessing, he was rejected. He could bring about no change of mind, though he sought the blessing with tears. 18 You have not come to a mountain that can be touched and that is burning with fire; to darkness, gloom and storm; 19 to a trumpet blast or to such a voice speaking words that those who heard it begged that no further word be spoken to them, 29

20 because they could not bear what was commanded: "If even an animal touches the mountain, it must be stoned. 21 The sight was so terrifying that Moses said, "I am trembling with fear." 22 But you have come to Mount Zion, to the heavenly Jerusalem, the city of the living God. You have come to thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly, 23 to the church of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven. You have come to God, the judge of all men, to the spirits of righteous men made perfect, 24 to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel. 25 See to it that you do not refuse him who speaks. If they did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, how much less will we, if we turn away from him who warns us from heaven? 26 At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, "Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens."[e] 27 The words "once more" indicate the removing of what can be shaken—that is, created things—so that what cannot be shaken may remain. 28 Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, 29 “for our God is a consuming fire."!!!

30

The good news is that if you yield to God’s will and seek after Jesus according to His Word, you will succeed. Not because of your effort but because it’s another promise from God. He said, “Seek me diligently with your whole heart and you will find Me” He will even give you the will and the want to seek Him if you ask for it. Remember, He has chosen you to believe. God chose the elect people to fill His kingdom. All things were created by Him and for Him and he has predestinated their lives, according to Romans. Also, what does Philippians 1:6 say? “Being confident of this very thing, that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.” Again, read in Hebrews 12:2 2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. First Thessalonians 5:23-24 says, 5:23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 5:24Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it. 2nd Thessalonians also affirms this. 2:13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: Read Romans 8 especially the 14th verse. It refers to who is a son of God.

31

Romans 8

1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: 4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. 6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. 8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. 9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. 10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. 12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. 32

13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. 14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. 15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. 16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: 17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. 18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. 20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, 21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. 22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. 23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

33

24 For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? 25 But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. 26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. 28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. 29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified. 31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? 32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? 33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth. 34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

34

35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. 38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

In the end it comes down to this. Know Jesus, whom God sent, as Lord and Savior. Love the Lord God above everything and everyone else in the world, and love your neighbor as yourself and all the will of God will be done in your life. This is not an easy calling and will require sacrifice on our part. We will have to become servants to all, even the neighbors that we don’t like. I have friends that can’t get enough reading material on the end times and books on what Heaven is like. Not to mention books on how to understand God and their walk. They find this to be very interesting and exciting and intellectually stimulating. It also helps to define how others are measuring up in their spiritual walks but alas they are failing in their servitude to their brothers and sisters by neglecting one of our greatest gifts from God, prayer. Unfortunately, prayer isn’t as much fun or interesting and certainly not intellectually stimulating. It doesn’t improve your ability to judge others and since it is mostly a private act between a person and God, one can’t really glory in it. But in actuality it is one of the greatest places that we can lay down our lives for our brothers and 35

sisters and at the same time draw incredibly close to Jesus and the thrown of God!!! It is written, “The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much power”. Most Christians do not realize how important prayer is. They spend a ton of time in activities that they may think God should be doing but most likely never spend any time seeking God for what He wants them to be doing. Again this is an error being committed because those running the churches aren’t teaching the importance of prayer. In some cases people don’t believe in prayer because they have prayed and didn’t get an answer or got an answer they didn’t want and so gave it up. Either way it’s a loss for the people of God. Is prayer important and necessary? Absolutely! If anyone would not have needed to pray, it would have been Jesus. He was the Son of God come down from Heaven. He was the heir to the thrown! Yet He prayed constantly and fervently! He was in constant communication with the Father about everything that was going on each day and at one point He even prayed for us! How remarkable. Read John 17, the whole chapter and especially the 20th verse, “Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word”. Prayer is the communication tool that God has given us and we need to become familiar with its use. It is the medium that God uses to direct our paths. Most Christians stumble around in ignorance and only by God’s grace do we survive at all but today we live in relatively good times. That is soon to change and I remind you that it’s written, “As many as are led by the Spirit, these are the sons of God.” The sons will not stumble in darkness or ignorance but through a relationship built through prayer, God’s Word and obedience, they will be led by God to do His will. They will know the unction of the Holy Spirit and will be able to discern between good and evil. If you haven’t honed your skills at this you will be deceived. It is written, “By reason of use they have trained their senses to discern both good and evil.” If you think this skill just happens, you are wrong. But prayer is also service to all mankind. We are admonished to pray for all men, kings and paupers. Pray for peace, pray for unity 36

of the Spirit in the bond of peace, pray that our flight is not in winter and these are but a few of the things that we are instructed to pray for. Pray for the lost, pray for the saints, pray for all in authority that we may live a peaceable life. Pray for whatever God places in your heart to pray for. He said, “Cast all you care upon me that I may care for you.” This is done through prayer. The last I’ll mention is pray for the restoration of Israel. In closing, it is written that, “Jesus learned obedience through the things He suffered.” Walking with Jesus is simple but there will be a price. We are in a great war and most American Christians aren’t aware because we live a pretty good life and are comfortable for the most part. Even when we read some book about it, it’s surreal and we think that it’s probably not even true. We have been desensitized our whole lives by fictional Disney stories and books and movies like the Exorcist. I acknowledge that these seem so different but they are very similar in their power to deceive. We are indoctrinated that witches are not always bad and in fact can be “good witches” sometimes like in the Wizard of Oz or the witches of Eastwick, or most recently, Harry Potter. Trust me these types of so called entertainment have taken their toll on all of us. Note that in most movies when evil is actually portrayed as evil, the church has no power to stop it. “In the last days there will come great delusion”, its here NOW! Please, please cast off the ways and teachings of this world and partake of the greatest gift ever given to man, eternal life with Jesus. Sincerely, James Brooks
