This is a scripture heavy message. We end time saints are front line Christians living in a time that no other generation has experienced. What I mean is that we are experiencing end time chaos like no other time in history. This also is not a shame message but one to help us all to be on point in these very days. Imagine what wonderful opportunities we will have in our Christian lives in days such as ours.

Jesus had access to the battlefield as he did the following in the totality of His ministry:

John 5:19 - 19 Then Jesus answered and said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner.

John 12:49-50 - 49 For I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak. 50 And I know that His command is everlasting life. Therefore, whatever I speak, just as the Father has told Me, so I speak.”

So, if we also make this practice a part of our relationship with God then the following will be possible:

John 14:12 - 12 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.

Eph 4:11-16 - 11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, 13 till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; 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.

Matt 10:8 - 8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.

Matthew 28:18-20 - 18 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.

Mark 16:15-20 - 15 And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. 17 And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; 18 they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.” 19 So then, after the Lord had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. 20 And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs. Amen.

This is a testimony of Gods faithfulness in spite of my spiritual denseness. I will explain what that means within this message but I actually think that you will see it without me have to shed any light on those moments.

When I was working for government, roundabout 3 years before I retired, I wrote on a little sticky note 175. Oh yes, it had to do with my weight, but I wasn’t going to let anyone know that. After all I had a traffic flow in and out of my office most days. I was a prayer to God asking for Him to help me to get to a healthy weight. Now maybe it’s too early in the message to bring this up, but up it comes anyway. What I have learned in my dealings with God is that when I ask Him for freedom from stuff like losing weight or for more money so that I can get out of debt, I usually expect that the One who spoke all things into being in 6-short days can of course just instantaneously speak the weight off of me in an instant or drop cash from one strangers bank account into mine. Nope, what I have found that He does is He looks to the source of the problem and begins His work right there. This is usually where the pain, trials, and testing begin; not for God of course, but it might be for us to really see if it is the weight or debt that is our actual problem or is it something more sinister like our out of control eating habits, drinking habits, or Amazon spending habits which is where the root of the whole mess might lie.

I think and hope that this short testimony will help to bear some of that out.

Now at that time I prayed from deliverance from the 240 lbs., I did not speculate on any of the habits I had that led me to this weight. And I didn’t pray more than a few times throughout the decade that I was hoping that this thing would be brought under new management. Nonetheless and regardless, I thought that I had the faith for it, and that one day it just might happen. Hey passing time has a way of testing if you are really faithful and if you really believe that you can do all things in Christ.

It is imperative that we read the bible as much as possible especially in these days, praying always for the understanding. Not a scripture a day on your Telly, but spending a couple of hours a day really believing that reading it, is earth-shattering life changing.

We are in the formula of the great deception and/or falling away and it is being founded and grounded on a foundation of lies with the intention to deceive, if possible, even the A+ Christians known as the elect. We will have to do our due diligence when we hear anything that confront our current understanding of the scriptures. Deception is coming and the falling away narrative is currently being released in small palatable bites and most everybody is eating. Now what I am not saying is that if a teaching is presented and you haven’t even been taught the subject matter that you simply discard it as false. Nope, the Pharisees did this and made their beds in hell.

Proverbs 25:2 - It is the glory of God to conceal a matter,
But the glory of kings is to search out a matter.

We should be diligent searches of the truth and lies, but knowing the truth so that when the lies are discovered we do not fall for them. The scripture I want to talk about is a point of question by some because of what the traditions of men state. Jesus, because He knows what is in man, already included a warning about what might be said about what He just said about John in the following verse and yet it is still happening. We will present it shortly:

John 21:21-25 - 21 Peter, seeing him, said to Jesus, “But Lord, what about this man?”

22 Jesus said to him, “If I will that he remain till I come, what is that to you? You follow Me.”

23 Then this saying went out among the brethren that this disciple would not die. Yet Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but, “If I will that he remain till I come, what is that to you?”

24 This is the disciple who testifies of these things, and wrote these things; and we know that his testimony is true.

25 And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen.

Ok so if I am just being honest, and I usually try to be, I wasn’t too concerned about these Old Testament celebrations. But in my continued pursuit of growth, I discovered in more than one book that they are an important sign to be paying attention too.

Let’s look at each one in order and see how these feasts actually give us a pretty accurate picture of Jesus and seven specific things that He did to fulfill those feasty requirements required in the old testament, while He was walking the earth in the New Testament:

The seven feasts of God (or appointed times outlined in Leviticus 23) are Passover, Unleavened Bread, Firstfruits, Pentecost, Trumpets, Day of Atonement, and Tabernacles. Jesus fulfilled the first four during His first coming and points to future prophetic events for the final three during His second coming.

I am going to present their OT meaning and their NT meaning:

The Spring Feasts (Completed by Jesus)

· Passover (Pesach):

o Meaning: Commemorates the blood of the lamb saving Israel from death in Egypt.

§ The Old Testament scripture that most directly supports this statement is Exodus 12:13, which introduces the institution of the Passover feast in Egypt.

Key Scriptural Details

§ The Sign of Blood: Exodus 12:13 states that the blood on the houses serves as a sign that spares the Israelites from the destructive plague.

§ The Memorial Feast: Exodus 12:14 commands that this exact night be commemorated as a feast to the Lord forever.

§ The Festival Context: Leviticus 23:5 formally lists the Passover as the first of the spring feasts.

o Fulfillment: Jesus died on the cross as the ultimate, sinless Lamb of God

The New Testament scriptures that most directly support this statement are 1 Corinthians 5:7, 1 Peter 1:18-19, and John 1:29.

You get to make up your own mind about what you believe regarding God, but only to the degree that you read and develop your relationship with the Bible through the Holy Spirit. At some point in your growth process, assuming you have a growth process in place, as you do this, you will be able to filter everything that you've ever been taught or read in other books through the word of God; and it is when these habits are in place that you get to and should make up your own mind about what you believe about the bible and what it states about God and everything else it discusses.

Why do a shorty-sporty message about this podcast preacher. Well because in these end days division and deception will be the factors that will without a doubt be in play. Eventually, that is in the very near future, many who once believed in God will abandon the faith, and then try and convince other Christians to abandon their faith because as the saying goes misery loves company.

Pro 6:19 – in part it states, “A false witness who speaks lies, And one who sows discord among brethren.”

Why does God hate division? Because it works. people can be led astray by several methods but I assure you it is always by people one way or the other who are not following the precepts of God:

2 Chron 21:11 - Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit harlotry, and led Judah astray.

Pro 20:1 - Wine is a mocker, Strong drink is a brawler, And whoever is led astray by it is not wise.

Jer 50:6 - “My people have been lost sheep. Their shepherds (that is some pastors of the day) have led them astray; They have turned them away on the mountains. They have gone from mountain to hill; They have forgotten their resting place.

In my previous message titled, “Flee From The Wrath of God”, posted on July 16, 2026, I discussed what hot and cold means in the context of the following scripture. I believe in these end of the end of days that we will need to scholar up on the bible and the things of God. You do not want to be one of those who drop into the tribulation of God because you didn’t listen nor take to heart what I have been teaching in these podcast messages.

Revelation 3:14–16 - 14 “And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write,

‘These things says the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God: 15 “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. 16 So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.

Again the definition of hot or cold is important to understand least you think as I did for most of my Christian walk that Jesus would prefer you be hot, that is alive for Him in every way, or cold, which I thought meant being unsaved and by your own choosing going to hell in a hand basket. I was wrong as Jesus wasn’t saying this. Again we look at the definition of hot and cold so that we have a deeper revelation as to what Jesus was teaching:

The Context and Meaning

• Historical Connection: Laodicea lacked its own water supply. It piped in hot water from nearby Hierapolis springs (which turned lukewarm and foul-tasting by arrival) and cold water from Colossae.
• Spiritual Meaning: "Hot" water heals and "cold" water refreshes. "Lukewarm" water is useless and causes sickness. Christ uses this to describe a church that is spiritually indifferent, self-satisfied, and physically wealthy but spiritually bankrupt.

Can and should we be both hot and cold? I believe so even though Jesus gives a choice between them. I believe He was talking to the part of the church, this means you, not a building, that had began to slip away from their initial salvation and that their love was growing cold indeed:

Matthew 24:12 - 12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.

Ok so quite the opening title, but they usually are.

Let’s see if the bible addresses both people pleasing and the fear of man. Maybe they are one in the same:

There is no exact, single number of scriptures that talk about people-pleasing because the Bible addresses the concept using several different terms, though resource databases like OpenBible.info catalog upwards of 50 to 100 verses that directly confront the heart of this struggle.

While the modern phrase "people-pleaser" appears explicitly in a few verses, the Bible broadens its focus by addressing the root behaviors: "men-pleasing," "the fear of man," and "seeking the approval of others."

Key Biblical Themes Regarding People-Pleasing

• Explicit "Man-Pleasing" (Colossians 3:22, Eph. 6:6, Gal. 1:10): The Bible warns against "eye-service"—doing good work only so that you can be watched so that when watched you are trying to gain human approval, rather than serving Christ sincerely.

Jesus puts this work thingy in perspective when He states the following:

Luke 17:7-10 - 7 And which of you, having a servant plowing or tending sheep, will say to him when he has come in from the field, ‘Come at once and sit down to eat’? 8 But will he not rather say to him, ‘Prepare something for my supper, and gird yourself and serve me till I have eaten and drunk, and afterward you will eat and drink’? 9 Does he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I think not. 10 So likewise you, when you have done all those things which you are commanded, say, ‘We are unprofitable servants. We have done what was our duty to do.’ ”

And but the following scriptures explain

Colossians 3:22 – 22 Bondservants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh, not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but in sincerity of heart, fearing God.

Eph. 6:5-6 – 5 Bondservants, be obedient to those who are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in sincerity of heart, as to Christ; 6 not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but as bondservants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart,

Gal. 1:10 - 10 For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ.

Oh boy that is hitting the non-tribbers right upside the head. Flee from the wrath which is unleashed during the 7-yr tribulation.

1 Thessalonians 5:9 - 9 For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

Romans 5:9 - 9 Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.

1 Thessalonians 1:10 - 10 and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, even Jesus who delivers us from the wrath to come.

Saved from wrath doesn’t mean we have to go through wrath in order to get saved form wrath, and this is what would happen if there were no rapture. Jesus went through the wrath of God and became our sin that we didn’t have to:

 Romans 3:25: States that God put Jesus forward as a propitiation (or sacrifice of atonement) by His blood, demonstrating His righteousness.

 2 Corinthians 5:21: Explains that God made Jesus, who had no sin, to be "sin for us" so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.

 Galatians 3:13: States that Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us.

Wow this is not what I intended to be a part of this message but there it is.

So, what does the following scripture imply to us or for us:

Matt 3:7 - 7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them, “Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

Let’s find out why John the baptizer asked this question, “Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?”:

Originally spoken by John the Baptist in Matthew 3:7 (and similarly by Jesus in Matthew 12:34 and Matthew 23:33), this harsh phrase in the original Greek (γεννήματα ἐχιδνῶν, gennēmata echidnōn) translates literally to "offspring of vipers." It was a stinging metaphor for hypocritical religious leaders, warning that their poisonous, malicious teachings would result in divine judgment.

Embracing demons especially in these end times happens automatically when you reject Jesus Christ as God or God the Father, which by the way are one and the same thing. Do I have a scripture to support such a claim?

John 14:7 - 7 “If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.”

John 14:9 - 9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?

John 10:30 - 30 I and My Father are one.”

Mark 9:40 - 0 For he who is not against us is on our side.

Luke 11:23 - 23 He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

Oh now you might be asking me why present such elementary information to my awesomely mature listeners? And I would say that the proof that we are not all paying attention is listed in the bible as well as it stating that it will get worse meaning that we will begin to lose the marginalizers. What? Yes, we have actually already begun loosing those who are playing religion and solely depending on their church to represent all that they believe about the bible, that they themselves cannot possibly be reading, otherwise this falling away would not and could not be happening.

Now this could be a book of a message but what I will do is limit the message to the very current events that are right now being set up to poison the minds of the unaware or those who are not looking. My last message discusses in depth why we should be actively studying the subject of eschatology, that is the study of the end times of which we are right now in. The title of that message is “If We Don’t Know When He Is Returning Reasonably Speaking Why Watch” posted July 8th 2026.

Before I infinitely break down the 2 Thess 2:1-11 scripture later in this message, allow me to be redundant and explain just a bit about what people group will be deceived. I say this because after we go through the scripturally list (we have been through it before in other messages) you will think that you are in the clear as you do not fit the definition of any of those people or religious groups at all what so ever. So besides this initial list there are others who like us think that we are in the clear regarding these end time deceptions. That group we will address later in the message.

So, I was reading a book titled, “Summoning The Demon – AI, Aliens, & The Antichrist written by Alan Didio and came across this obscure section which talked about how we are to watch for the return of Jesus. I thought perhaps having already done messages on this subject, specifically addressing the scripture, that I should touch on it again:

Matthew 24:36 - 36 “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.

I didn’t buy the book for this reason as I already agree with the position of watching. And but I also believe that this statement is a Jewish idiom which is defined as:

A Jewish idiom is a figurative phrase rooted in Jewish culture, religion, or language. They often originate from ancient Biblical Hebrew, the Aramaic of the Talmud, or Yiddish. These expressions rely on cultural context and rarely make sense if translated literally into English.

I thought to look up just how many idioms there are in the bible so that we understand that it is very common to use them:

There is no official or single number for how many Jewish and Hebraic idioms are in the Bible. Biblical scholars estimate there are thousands of idioms and Hebraisms woven throughout both the Old and New Testaments. Because idioms rely on cultural and linguistic nuances, literal translations often miss their true meanings.

Understanding these idioms requires looking at the Hebraic background of the texts. Some of the most common and widely recognized biblical idioms and phrases include:

• "By the skin of one's teeth" (Job 19:20): Means surviving or escaping a disaster with nothing to spare.
• "Apple of one's eye" (Psalm 17:8): Refers to something incredibly cherished or protected.
• "Gird up your loins" (2 Kings 4:29): Means preparing for action or getting ready for a difficult journey.
• "A drop in the bucket" (Isaiah 40:15): Represents a very small, insignificant amount.

We could call this message the great apostasy or falling away, the great deception, or how to avoid departing from your Christianity, or as the song lyric goes, "I'm losing my religion" by R.E.M. yes, once you listen to that song you will never forget it. It is sort of deep and haunting at the same time.

How ever it happens it is a very real possibility that we too can lose our religion and it is right in these days that Satan is making his play that this would happen.

Removing your religion brings him great satisfaction and he will move heaven and earth to do it.

So how can we avoid the inevitable. Ah we should define inevitable so you understand what I am saying otherwise you can stiffen up and shout not me no way no how, maybe it will be the other guy but not me definitely not! Look up the following scriptures and see if you stand a better chance than Peter did who walked with God as an eyewitness (Matthew 26:33-35, 69-75 Mark 14:29-31, 66-72, Luke 22:33-34, 54-62, John 13:37-38, 18:15-27, and Luke 22:31-32).

Luke 22:31-32 is included because Jesus knew Peter better than Peter knew himself and so Jesus released satan on his life to deal with Peters pride and we know it worked.

Ok so that scripture definitely places all of us in a category whereby we can possibly be deceived and then deny Christ. Oh I know right. I am right now at 1145pm typing up this message as I had already gone to bed hours earlier, but this message disturbed me wide awake and I could do nothing else but get it out of my head.

So how do we distinguish a Counterfeit dollar from the real deal? Study the real so much that when the false shows up you are able to right away distinguish it as the Counterfeit that it is.

How can you tell if you are in the market to buy a classic car or supercar for my car guys and gals, if the product that you are looking at is authentic or a Counterfeit? You must know every detail of the original to be able to distinguish it from a fake. Oh and there are many fakes out there so it's truly like a real thing.

This is a message that started out as a dream and as I began to walk through it in my mind I knew that I had to get up and document the key elements of it before I lost it in slumberland.

It kind of started as I was focusing on some of the health issues that I have been going through and that it would be nice that God would have healed me as He had done so many other times before. But then, I believe He started to show me where the real value of my relationship is with Him through this mountain parable that He gave us in the bible and the one He gave me in this dream.

As always the download was huge and I couldn't sleep anymore but I knew in my spirit which doesn’t sleep, that it was Him teaching me something that is enormously valuable to my understanding of just how wonderful our relationship could be with God if we just focused on the initial sacrifice He made for us so that we could enter into a deep relationship with the Father in spite of being sick, having a disease, struggling through finances or whatever it is that represents our difficulties in life.

My musing ended with a mountain top experience which gave me a new perspective on casting mountains into the sea. I now understand that some mountains we come across in life are meant to be climbed while others are meant to be cast into the sea. I saw that the journey of climbing them and that the value that is wrapped up in the climb and not so much as reaching the summit. Perhaps this is why they are wider at the base which can represent the start of the climb and much narrower at the top which could represent the finishing of whatever we are processing through. More on that in a minute.

So, the analogy that God showed me was like when we were kids and we looked forward to Holidays like Christmas, Easter, and our birthday events. Ah, when we were kids those events seem to have excited us to know end. Oh the joy of receiving a birthday gift that we've always wanted, or Christmas gifts that were on our list, or an Easter basket full of delectable sweets. We would be excited for weeks and even months depending on the gift or treat.

So, what does viscosity mean? And all of my cars guys shoot up their hands but for the rest of us and even for the car guys we are not just talking about the chemical make-up of car oil but relating how the different blends apply to different seasons and types of cars, or more specifically to types of engines. If you have a high revving engine built for performance then the oil thickness and make-up will be different than for a car, like a Pinto or Honda, and even different based on climate or season. Oil for cars in Alaska in the wintertime will basically be a viscosity quite different than if you live in Death Valley. Using the same oil for both places will get you and your car in trouble.

And to add to the mix we also have synthetic oils which is basically man-made oil in which all cars do not do well with this type of oil which I learned the hard way.

Ok so let’s break down five of the oil viscosities so that I can then move from this analogy to what this message is about.

Oil viscosity measures a lubricant's resistance to flow. In multigrade motor oils, the first number (ending in "W" for Winter) indicates the cold-temperature flow, and the second number represents the high-temperature thickness.

Five common motor oil viscosities and their typical uses include:

• 0W-20: An ultra-thin, low-viscosity oil primarily used in modern, fuel-efficient, and hybrid engines to reduce friction and improve gas mileage.
• 0W-30: A low-viscosity formula optimized for colder climates, allowing for quick engine flow during winter starts while providing excellent protection at higher temperatures.
• 5W-20: A common, slightly thicker oil widely used in many smaller, modern passenger cars to balance fuel efficiency with engine component protection.
• 5W-30: One of the most versatile and commonly used oils, frequently recommended for a wide range of standard passenger vehicles across various climate conditions.
• 10W-40: A thicker, higher-viscosity oil historically favored for warmer climates, older vehicles, and higher-load conditions, providing a stronger lubricating film at high operating temperatures.

So we can see that your engine or car has a specific type of oil recommended based on the year, make and model along with if the engine has been modified or not. And well if you have modified your engine then you would automatically know what type of oil to run to give it the maximum protection.

Ok so as I have stated in the past, Christians should be able to talk about anything with other Christians who have open ears, heart, and eyes, without getting offended at all. Yes, it is a perfection of Christian behavior not seen so much but it is the mark that the bible sets for us spiritually related kinfolk.

Let’s get on with the bite:

Pro 1:7 - The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, But fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Ok I hear you, you want to know what despise really means:

To despise is to feel a strong sense of contempt, disgust, or disdain toward someone or something, viewing them as beneath respect or completely worthless. It is an intense emotion that often goes beyond simple hatred, typically involving strong moral disapproval.

For example: "She despised the way he treated others."

Key Characteristics

• Moral Condemnation: It usually involves judging someone as morally deficient or vile.
• Intense Dislike: It combines disgust with a very low opinion of a person or object's worth.
• Rejection: It frequently leads to feelings of loathing or the urge to completely dismiss and avoid the subject.

Common Synonyms

• Loathe: To feel intense disgust or abhorrence.
• Scorn: To look down upon as unworthy or beneath notice.
• Detest: To dislike intensely.
• Disdain: To refuse or reject due to a feeling of superiority.

So when you despise wisdom and instruction, that is a doctrine or teaching from one called to teach, then you meet the definition of that scripture which states, “fools despise wisdom and instruction.”

So if tongues can be supported as being necessary and a gift from God and you reject it you are foolish. End of the story.

In this message we were going to cover the final two of the five topics we should pretty much be in agreement with based on the ever-straight bible narrative. The first three were:

1. The Holy Spirit Necessary Presence In Your Life

2. The Rapture –

3. The End Times –

This message was to cover the church purpose and tongues.

Now since the original church purpose message was over 115 pages, I thought it would be a significant enough of a challenge for me to cut it down to just 20 pages which equates to about one podcast message. If I also included the tongues message then I would have had to cut it down to just 10 pages and that would be near impossible considering how I like to yack on about these subjects. So, this message will cover The Purpose Of The Church, and the Speaking In A Heavenly Language, the tongues message, will be a separate stand-alone message.

The Purpose Of The Church – A message originally posted in 28 separate podcast messages beginning on July 20, 2022 and ending July 27, 2022. It will also be one of the first books this ministry releases later in 2026/27. Why you ask? Because we can do better as a church and but I feel this is only possible if we follow the bible model when it comes to doing the church thing the bible way so that we can get bible results.

In this message we will establish that the Church is not for the make-believers, fake-believers, non-believers, those stuck in the valley of indecision, false christs, false apostles, false prophets, wolves in sheeps clothing, or false teachers. It is only for those being saved and those who by a curious nature stopped by and got or are getting saved in the process.

The primary purpose of the church is to equip the saints for the work of ministry, to make disciples, that is life learners, and to send them out in Ministry. Rinse and repeat turning the whole world upside down with the most effective kingdom results we ever could can. Yes we should worship God, collect tithes and offerings, and even do communion as a body of believers, but in addition to these type of things it should be our absolute primary objective to equip the saints for the work of ministry and to make life learners of all who commit to joining us for the ride.

Now if you’re tired of I can’t get my appetite satisfied through my church experience, including watching others do ministry, but yet, you do not even know what you’re going to be when you grow up, then enter through the narrow gate...and keep this in mind, I think Jesus stated the gate was narrow and even made narrow originally because of the condition of our minds and the difficulty we find as humans to change or to be challenged on a point we were sure would never be challenged:

Luke 13:23-25 - 23 Then one said to Him, “Lord, are there few who are saved?”

And He said to them, 24 “Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able. 25 When once the Master of the house has risen up and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open for us,’ and He will answer and say to you, ‘I do not know you, where you are from,’

Matthew 7:13-14 - 13 “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. 14 Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.

So, I thought just maybe we could clean up on some things or topics that should in these days be non-issues within the body of christ. Are they salvation issues? I am not sure as I think the lack of some of these things could lead a person to fall away at a minimum which could then make it a salvation issue. And but is that really the position we want to take when it comes to learning and understanding the bible and the Lord of the bible. For me personally no. I want to know everything I can about God and learn how to receive everything He intended me to receive so that I can be the most effective Christian He intended me to be.

It’s simple math really. If you are a Christian who adamantly seeks to do the works of Jesus and greater works in faith then this message will encourage you and help you in any area that you might need more understanding in. But if you are a Christian who clutches your salvation ticket in your hands hoping that Jesus simply returns before you die having no intention of doing anything for Him then you are a risk. For what? For these end time deceptions which are being prepared right before our eyes. But even worse what crown will you be casting at the feet of Jesus (Rev 4:10-11)? What works will you have that will endure His judgement?

1 Cor 3:12-15 - 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.

You see where this is going? You were doing things before your salvation and but after your salvation as you grow and mature you do the kingdom things that make an eternal difference. You no longer waste your time in fetching any and all of the worlds goods anymore:

1 John 2:15-17 - 15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world. 17 And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.

James 4:4 - 4 Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

Additionally, Matthew 6:24: Teaches that "No one can serve two masters". You cannot fully devote yourself to God while simultaneously loving material wealth (money/possessions). And 2 Timothy 3:4: Warns of the "last days" when people will become "lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God".

Ok so we are going to get strange and funky but stick with me and it will all come around.

I asked Google AI the following question:

“How many people have been convicted of murder with only one witness?”

There is no exact national database tracking the total number of murder convictions that rely on a single witness, but the number is estimated to be in the thousands. In the United States, a jury can legally convict someone of murder beyond a reasonable doubt using only the testimony of a single witness, even if there is no physical or forensic evidence.

The reality of these convictions highlights significant flaws in the justice system:

• The Scale of Misidentification: According to the Innocence Project, approximately 69% of DNA exoneration cases and hundreds of non-DNA exonerations involved eyewitness misidentification.
• Leading Cause of Wrongful Convictions: Faulty witness testimony is the leading contributing factor to wrongful convictions in the U.S.
• The "One Witness" Standard: Statistically, tens of thousands of felony suspects are targeted yearly in cases where the only critical evidence is a single eyewitness

Then because a one witness world can be unreliable, I went to see what the bible stated about witnesses.

The Bible requires two or three witnesses to establish any charge, accusation, or unrepentant sin. This principle serves to protect individuals from false accusations, ensure fairness, and provide a clear, step-by-step process to restore relationships and address wrongdoing.

The Scriptures outline this standard across both the Old and New Testaments:

• The Old Testament Standard: The Law of Moses strictly forbade convicting someone of a crime or sin on the testimony of a single witness. Matters had to be confirmed by the mouth of two or three witnesses (e.g., Deuteronomy 19:15).

  • Deut 19:15 - 15 “One witness shall not rise against a man concerning any iniquity or any sin that he commits; by the mouth of two or three witnesses the matter shall be established.

The New Testament Application: Jesus and the apostles repeatedly reinforced this rule (e.g., 2 Corinthians 13:1).

• 2 Cor 13:1 - 13 This will be the third time I am coming to you. “By the mouth of two or three witnesses every word shall be established.”

The Process of Addressing Sin

When a fellow believer falls into sin, the Bible lays out a specific progression of how witnesses and church members should be involved (Matthew 18:15-17):

Well so what happened to the Podcast Preacher, I mean we haven’t had such a gap in messages for quite a long while. I was in the Coronary Care Unit (CCU) at Enloe Hospital in Chico for eight days.

Hey Mr. Podcast Preacher don’t you preach on divine healing and didn’t you get healed of a pile of illnesses a couple of years back? So, what are you doing back at the hospital?

I intend on answering those questions using this season of my life to further discuss divine healing and but also mixing it with wisdom, not fear or a lack of faith but wisdom (Heb 11:6). And but also I feel that in some of my previous healing or miracles, signs, and wonder messages, I may have come off too one sided, which is to say or imply that if you didn’t get healed then it is all on you. That way of preaching is too God-in-a-box and can come off as judgmental and even be wrapped up in this idea that I am more spiritual than you because I got or get healed and you may not have. No, I still believe in a God who has already healed us and does indeed still perform miracles, signs, and wonders, but for the journey that each of us takes to receive and to give out I believe it is here that God works distinctly and uniquely with each of us (Acts 2:22, Heb2:4, Mark 11:22-24, James 5:14-15, Mark 16:17, 1 Cor chapter 12). I would not want anyone to ever go away from one of my messages feeling like they don’t measure up to any sort of religious qualification for God to move in their life. Please forgive me if I have been the source of any spiritual frustration or discouragement to you.

Be very encouraged That God meets you where you are at, and as long as you stay away from comparisons with others, you will be on the straight and narrow path (Matt 7:13-14). Maybe in this season God is just showing me that He is not a formula to understand in order for us to get what He Himself has promised whenever we want it. He is ever so deeply committed to us that we would simply become as children who could enter His kingdom as I am sure that otherwise in any other condition we cannot enter (Matt 18:3, Mark 10:15). Testimonies are not challenges directed at us. It is not a measuring bar insofar as to gauge our spiritual maturity. Every Christian is uniquely called and equipped to do what God has called them to do (1 Cor chapter 12). So, stay away from spiritual works competitiveness and trying to one-up someone on testimonies, they are destructive and very relational harmful thus turning God into nothing more than a spiritual miracle, signs, and wonders slot machine. And well besides it has been my experience that we have way too many of us sharing testimonies that elevate or glorify us and not God. God testimonies should reveal the workings of the supernatural, not efforts that you made to bring about something. Again, this happens when we have fallen into a spiritual competitiveness instead of really being grounded in our relational personal walk with the all-ever-living God of everything (Acts 8:18-20, 1 Tim 3:1-10, Titus 1:5-9).

Well, so well, well, this is not going to be a feel-good message, but one that is necessary for continued growth. I was reading the final book in a four-book series titled the Ethiopian Bible and I was noticing how authentically born Christians really rub against the religious mindsetted peeps. Meaning those who think that God approves of their lifestyle regardless of what they do, because after all they have been in church their whole life. Oftentimes these types are simply minded in that they believe if you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord you will be saved, no additional action items necessary.

Rom 10:9 - 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.

You see it says it so it must be true. Well let’s look at some other samples and see if we can see a pattern or way of thinking that is expressed in the bible:

God said:

Gen 2:16-17 - 16 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; 17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”

Gen 3:1-5 - 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’?”

Watch the twixy-conundrum. God said, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; 17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat. But satan repeated it back in a weird sort of way right: “You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?” Look if you had to listen to that again, that is the catch or hook that satan intended to use. Verse 2 - let’s see if we can see the author of confusion’s plan at work (1 Cor 14:33):

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.’ ”

Ok so like satan she did not quote God accurately and that is what created the crack so to speak. “You shall not eat it, nor shall you touch it, lest you die. In Gen 2:16-17 God didn’t say, “nor shall you touch it.” And but now before you say awe that is just being semantical, listen again to the words and how each time God is quoted they move away from what He originally stated. Hey look, she ate it and we are, all of humanity, born into sin, so I cannot be too far off of this point right?

Ok so wow, I didn’t see that coming you might say when all of a sudden you are challenged by a brother or sister in your church, ministry, family or friends so abruptly that the communication sits the Holy Spirit right down and you seem to be the only one that is aware that it has happened.

Allow me to try and unpack this end-time ever increasing behavior as it is complex involving a wide range of emotions, spirits sometimes, and even revealing cracks in our spiritual foundation.

James tells us in an entire chapter the primary communication problem that we have. Let’s see if we can pick it up along with some other communication issues.

James 3 - My brethren, let not many of you become teachers, knowing that we shall receive a stricter judgment. 2 For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body. 3 Indeed, we put bits in horses’ mouths that they may obey us, and we turn their whole body. 4 Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires. 5 Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things.

Ok so right away we see that we are cautioned not to let, or you could say, “allow” many of us to be teachers? Why? Because a teacher needs to be accurate, publicly observable, able to teach, emotionally mature, confident in their calling and craft, humble, able to teach from the anointing and the Holy Spirits leading, able to teach on the whole bible especially on difficult subject matter. And but then we have two issues in todays Christian world or maybe three. We have people trying to teach from a lack of knowledge of the bible, we have others who are unable or unwilling to teach because they do not read their bible, and we have an open willingness for the spiritually proud to try and teach over one called and assigned to teach. In a strange way it is like some sort of knowledge competition and it usually comes from insecurity.

Now to help out a minute there are two levels of teaching, the first is that we are all supposed to be able to teach others even if it is at a milk level with baby Christians. The other is the office of a teacher which is usually someone who is at a higher level spiritually speaking. When I say level I mean that they simply exhibit an insatiable appetite to read, study, do research, and to read their bibles usually with lots of cover-to-cover reading journeys. Now within these two groups there are also differing levels or expertise’s so to speak. I could not teach a college course that is pre-scripted as that is not my preferred teaching style. I really rely on the holy Spirit to bring scripture into remembrance so that I can go and flow. Others are the opposite and that is just fine.

Well so after that title reading we should define fear and awe as it relates to God to kick things off:

Fear - In the Bible, fearing God generally means having profound reverence, awe, and respect for His holiness and power, rather than being terrified of Him. It is described as a 360-degree awareness of His presence that motivates believers to obey His commands, hate evil, and live in a way that pleases Him.

Key Aspects of Fearing God:

• Reverence and Awe: It is a recognition of God's supreme authority, glory, and majesty, acknowledging Him as God while recognizing our place as His creatures.

Ah, but now I must include a definition within a definition – let’s look at the word awe:

• The Bible calls for an awe of God primarily through the concept of "fearing the Lord," which implies deep reverence, admiration, and wonder, rather than mere terror. Key verses include Psalm 33:8, which instructs all inhabitants to stand in awe of Him, and Hebrews 12:28-29, which commands worship with reverence and awe.
• Ps 33:8 – 8 Let the whole world fear the Lord,
  and let everyone stand in awe of him.
• Heb 12:28-29 - 28 Since we are receiving a Kingdom that is unshakable, let us be thankful and please God by worshiping him with holy fear and awe. 29 For our God is a devouring fire.

Key Scriptures Stating or Encouraging Awe of God:

• [Psalm 22:23 (ESV): "You who fear the LORD, praise Him! All you offspring of Jacob, glorify Him, and stand in awe of Him..."
• [Psalm 119:161 (ESV): "Princes persecute me without cause, but my heart stands in awe of Your words."
• [Psalm 4:4 (ESV): "Be angry, and do not sin; ponder in your own hearts on your beds, and be silent. Selah" (this is often interpreted as "Stand in awe/tremble and sin not")
• Context of Awe in Scripture:
• Reverence vs. Terror: The biblical "awe" (or fear) of God is an attitude of total admiration and respect for His power and holiness, not a paralyzing terror.
• Awe of His Works/Word: Examples include being awestruck by His creation such as described in Psalm 8 or His profound truth as described in Psalm 119:161.

What a song? Yes, and but my sister Debra Avey, who is also a board member of Applied Strengths Ministry wrote a song called “Podcast Preacher.” The link is included in this intro, click on it and thump it up for Jesus!

https://hyperfollow.com/DebraAvey

So why a song for a ministry, I mean churches don’t have songs about themselves. Ha, could you imagine listening to a song about this or that denomination. No, but so I did because it popped into my head one day that this whole ministry is about getting people to read and apply their bibles. I am not looking to build large groups of followers, well unless they were all doing what the bible says, then well maybe, but no. Reading your bible is the most important thing you can do even above going to church, although one should be done without the exclusion of the other.

The message is a shorty sporty but hits a major milestone in this ministry. What's the milestone podcast Preacher? It was coming up with a song that represented the ministry not in totality but yes definitely in part. In totality the assignment of my life is to equip the saints for the work of ministry and to make disciples eventually releasing them through others into operating and miracle signs and wonders while serving in love in meeting all of the elements discussed or that represent the fruit of the spirit.

Listen, there are times when truth doesn’t just come through teaching; it comes through sound.

And it carries the same call we talk about here—which is that we go deeper, beyond the surface and into the place where truth is found.

Ok so this message might initially come across as weird, and I say so what if it does as I have biblical examples of highly weirdnesses. When Lazareth climbed out of the grave, that, just a few days earlier, he was placed in, with the expectation that he would, well stay there, it was weird (John 11:1-44). And well when a big fish swam nearily close to the shore and burped up Jonah after he had died in his belly, well that too was weird; and well you might even say a bit stinky weird (Jonah chap 1-2). Ok one more and then we must go on. What about the walls of Jericho coming down with a shout and the blowing of some shofars (Joshua 6:1-21). Weird? Ah, but no wait, it gets weirder; what of a girl named Rahab:

The story of Rahab surviving the fall of Jericho is primarily found in Joshua chap 2 and chap 6 of the Old Testament. She survives because she hid two Israelite spies, and in return, she and her family are spared when the city walls fall, marked by a scarlet cord in her window, as promised by the spies.

Key Details of Rahab’s Story

• Location: Rahab, a Canaanite woman in Jericho, lived in a house built into the city wall. (could this have been a city built by giants? Ah, maybe later on that one)
• The Agreement: She hid the spies on her roof under flax and later allowed them to escape via a window, asking for safety in return. (in this she underestimated the plan of God for her life)
• The Sign: She hung a scarlet cord from her window, which the Israelites used to identify her home for protection during the destruction.
• Survival: While the city fell, her home remained standing. She was later integrated into Israel and is listed in the genealogy of Jesus.

Rahab is also highlighted as an example of faith in the New Testament (Hebrews 11:31, James 2:25). We will get to those scriptures in a minute.

How did she survive the great crumble? It’s a miracle big city time. She must have been hidden under the hand of the Almighty. And why? Why would God protect a harlet, after all, she was not living a clean life. Because well we will see it in the next bit in the message and well it just ads to the already weirdnesses:

Ha, but ok, so no it’s not the backwards meaning but it is the intended meaning. Let me say it another way, “suffering is necessary for positive spiritual growth which is intended to increase our maturity, both in the natural and spiritually speaking, and life effectiveness.” Is that more clearerness? Ha…

I will try and show our intense need to go through suffering, trials, testing, and God correction in order to meet that objective. I tell you that without these elements happening, that is suffering, trials, testing, and God correction in our lives, we would run to worshipping false gods in a heartbeat. Do you have support for that position Mister, Mister? Yes. Every time the Israelites got comfortable in the things of God, they soon drifted into sin and began to take on the same characteristics of those whom didn’t give a hoot about God. Yes, every time without exception. I recommend reading the book of Ezra and see how and what the Israelites departure from God looks like. Their departure from worshipping the one true living God is expressed 100’s of times in the Old Testament. And but if you pinch yourself and reply ouch, and but if you didn’t get that reply give it a stronger go and when you get to the ouch part, let it be a simple and funny reminder that we are no different from them.

We, for perhaps due to our American culture don’t really like suffering and at times we can attribute it to a non-believers destiny because they are attached to the world and to the will of the god of this earth (2 Cor 4:4). But suffering, trials, testing, and God correction is to strengthen us and to keep us on the right God path in order that we don’t stray into false-god harlotville and make the same mistake they did. It seems that God placed the Old Testament first so that we could look into the mirror of history and avoid doing what His own people did. It is like the Jews went first for our benefit so that we could learn from them, and but are we learning from them? I say that we can but according to Rev chapter 3 some of us won’t learn.

Perhaps this message can change that.

A farmer always knows what type of seed they are planting. Would they randomly cast seeds into their field? Nope, every farmer knows what seed to plant so that they are not surprised that if they wanted Pumpkins that they actual got Watermelons.

Seeds are symbolic of a couple of things in the bible. They are genuine seeds that, if planted using the farming rules for seeds, they can produce the intended crop. Seeds also are represented as the words that we speak. If we speak good words we reap good seed feedback, but if we sow or speak bad words, we will reap bad seed feedback. The word of God is also considered seed which is why we are to read and apply it consistently within our lives so that we can reap a good harvest of intended things. I will explain intended things as we move through this message.

Offerings are our financial seed. They are handled a couple of ways in the Bible. Apostles or disciples in training would be sent to those in other churches in order to provide input, correction, exhortation, teaching or even church admin advise. It was expected that they would receive resources or offerings from the saints that they visited. Paul shares with us what this looked like back in his days:

Phil 4:15-16 - 15 Now you Philippians know also that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me concerning giving and receiving but you only. 16 For even in Thessalonica you sent aid once and again for my necessities.

And we saw offerings giving in response to the Apostles ministry:

Acts 4:34-37 - 34 Nor was there anyone among them who lacked; for all who were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of the things that were sold, 35 and laid them at the apostles’ feet; and they distributed to each as anyone had need.

36 And Joses, who was also named Barnabas by the apostles (which is translated Son of Encouragement), a Levite of the country of Cyprus, 37 having land, sold it, and brought the money and laid it at the apostles’ feet.

And we saw how God views our offerings and already knows the size of our wallets so in no way is impressed with the amount given but the sacrifice and faith that accompanies our offering:

Mark 12:41-44 - 41 Now Jesus sat opposite the treasury and saw how the people put money into the treasury. And many who were rich put in much. 42 Then one poor widow came and threw in two mites, which make a quadrans. 43 So He called His disciples to Himself and said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all those who have given to the treasury; 44 for they all put in out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all that she had, her whole livelihood.”

So, if you are a consistent listener of this Podcast then you know that I said in my last message that I would be doing this one. I didn’t mention it by title because I didn’t have one. And but also, the reason that I am doing this very message is that there is a message within the message. The back story is that I was to by providing some revelation on Proverbs chapter 8, at our prayer meeting. It is the scripture that God gave our church this last new years eve, and but in the middle of the prayer meeting God shifted gears and dropped a seasonal seed message right in place of what He was bringing us into regarding a revival season. It is titled, “What Time Is It Right Now Seasonally Speaking” and was posted April 19, 2026.

So, what does wisdom have to do with anybody right? Nothing, if you don’t think it is the most valuable thing to operate in. Every human has completely ignored Gods wisdom in many parts of their lives without doubt. The non-believing community gets wisdom confused with fear and intelligence. But I would say that they have misdiagnosed their insight. Before we move too far down the road we need to distinguish the three types or sources of wisdom that exist today.

The three sources of wisdom are as follows:

1) God: Proverbs chapter 2 and 8

We will take a look at these scriptures in a bit:

2) Lucifer/Satan: Ezekiel 28:12-17 and James 3:13-15

Lucifer is satan’s pre-fallen name or position and satan is one of his fallen names. Oh you say well Podcast Preacher how many names and/or positions does the devil have:

The Bible uses dozens of names, titles, and descriptors for the devil, reflecting his multifaceted role as an adversary and tempter. While Satan (meaning "adversary") and Devil ("slanderer") are the most common, he is described by more than 20 distinct names or positions, including the tempter, the evil one, the dragon, the serpent, Lucifer,

So, I was going to be speaking on the wisdom of God at our Friday night prayer and revival meeting at the church in which God has been meeting us, each any every time, to bless us beyond what we even expected. And but we expect a lot as He is our Father and we His kids.

And but as I was setting down to review the scripture Pro chap 8, something started to happen which I believe it had to do with what topic each person was praying. Now when we have corporate prayer we often see and hear God move in between us in unity and confirming the one accord pattern. What I mean is that it is like He gives each of us a piece of what He is saying, and intends to do in and through us, like a puzzle piece, and but what is exciting is that each of the pieces fit a sort of single image. It isn’t like each of us has our own thing from God and that none of the parts has no correlation to one another. It is awesome and of course I always look forward to Friday nights at Arise Paradise because we may not know what to expect, but expect we do.

And so but as I was reviewing Pro chap 8 a scripture God gave to our church on the eave of January 1st, 2026. He shifted me to another message. And but no worries because my next message, after this one will cover the Proverbs chap 8 message that He also gave me, because it too is a must hear bit of revelation for the end time church.

I was sitting in the chair when God changed the frequency and blam, I was meditating on the events that took place throughout the day that are a catalyst to this message and I didn’t even know it until the cart was tumbling down the hill.

So earlier in the day I drove to Sacramento to deliver my Kaabo scooter to a potential buyer. I had been advertising this thing for about six months with many false starts and broken promises. Now a small bit of back story is that I had a conversation with God about 9-months or more ago telling Him that I wanted to get some seed in the ground - seed meaning offering money. Tithe is not seed money but offering money is seed money. Anyway, I sold one thing of which I was able to sow but then the games and gimmicks of trying to sell the rest of my items came to a halt.

So, it’s time we fix the idea that God comes in power-measures that differ, from one person to another. Ah, it’s been taught that this is the case in the following scripture which we will get to momentarily. Now some history is that I was reading this scripture and the topic illuminated which to me and this ministry is a sign that God wants me to prepare a message on what the Holy Spirit is pointing at. But as is the case every now and again, I shifted my thoughts for a brief moment and zink I lost the revelation.

Fast forward a few weeks into the future present, in my morning reading time, I tripped upon the scripture again, and bing, I had recaptured what God had initially pointed out several weeks back. So this time I was lead to investigate what the real meaning is regarding the request Elisha had made to Elijah, which was “Please let a double portion of your spirit be upon me.” Let’s look at that scripture:

2 Kings 2:6-15 - 6 Then Elijah said to him, “Stay here, please, for the Lord has sent me on to the Jordan.”

But he said, “As the Lord lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you!” So the two of them went on. 7 And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went and stood facing them at a distance, while the two of them stood by the Jordan. 8 Now Elijah took his mantle, rolled it up, and struck the water; and it was divided this way and that, so that the two of them crossed over on dry ground.

9 And so it was, when they had crossed over, that Elijah said to Elisha, “Ask! What may I do for you, before I am taken away from you?”

Elisha said, “Please let a double portion of your spirit be upon me.”

10 So he said, “You have asked a hard thing. Nevertheless, if you see me when I am taken from you, it shall be so for you; but if not, it shall not be so.” 11 Then it happened, as they continued on and talked, that suddenly a chariot of fire appeared with horses of fire, and separated the two of them; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.

12 And Elisha saw it, and he cried out, “My father, my father, the chariot of Israel and its horsemen!” So he saw him no more. And he took hold of his own clothes and tore them into two pieces. 13 He also took up the mantle of Elijah that had fallen from him, and went back and stood by the bank of the Jordan. 14 Then he took the mantle of Elijah that had fallen from him, and struck the water, and said, “Where is the Lord God of Elijah?” And when he also had struck the water, it was divided this way and that; and Elisha crossed over.

15 Now when the sons of the prophets who were from Jericho saw him, they said, “The spirit of Elijah rests on Elisha.

Ok so as I was moving through this message, I could see that there wasn’t enough paper in a small forest to document all of the things that I wanted to share about us Christians manifesting the traits of soldiers, athletes, and farmers. Oh, I know I could do one message per discipline batch, but I think it would lose something in the splitting up of these disciplines. So, what that means is that I will be referencing a lot of scriptures by their verse but not placing the actual scripture within this message. No problem though because you can and actually should be jotting them down as you move through the message so that you really get into the deep water. Yes, it is a shameless plug for the podcast, but also a truth. You can see how this works in Ezekiel (Ezek 47:3-5). All right here we go:

Matt 9:35-37 - 35 Then Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. 36 But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd. 37 Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few.

Look at what Jesus, that is our King and Priest was doing while His disciples were with Him. They were probably helping but I imagine the spiritual and ministerial workload was phenomenal considering the newness of Jesus ministry and the absence of anything in the way of schools or churches that could assist in equipping the new harvest and making disciples. And I say that, assuming that, if those institutions miraculously appeared that they would actually be assisting in making disciples which is not so much the common case in today’s world. I also say that considering how little we focus on equipping and making disciples today. Disciples, so that you have a more current or accurate understanding of the word, is to develop life-learners. A thing that is most rare in these days even though we have the educational institutions that we have. It would seem that they reproduce parrots more than they do life-learners, but this is not that so I get back to the other.

So, I had originally named this message, “The Strait of Hormuz Prophetic Fulfillment”, but then after some consideration I thought that it would be more like God to focus on the human element of a demonically carried out agenda. Satan uses anyone who gives him permission to do so. Who might they be you ask, well it would first and foremost be the make-believers, fake-believers, non-believers, and those stuck in the valley of indecision. And in every attempt to be non-offensive I will say that this very large people group gives satan permission to lead them around by their spiritual nose. Yes, in my message titled, “Serve and Worship God Or You Will By Default Serve And Worship Demon Empowered False gods”, you have learned that in life you only have two choices as to whom to will be a slave to. Oh, I know another controversial term, but let’s look at how God uses these to describe two people groups:

Rom 6:16-18 – 16 Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness? {notice the only two choices people have}

17 But God be thanked that though you were slaves of sin, {we are all born into sin} yet you obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine to which you were delivered. 18 And having been set free from sin, {this happens through the born again experience discusses in John 3:3-7} you became slaves of righteousness.

See again in Romans:

Rom 6:22 - 22 But now having been set free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit to holiness, and the end, everlasting life.

So quickly and in a nut shell, you are either serving satan through your sinning, or you are serving, that is voluntarily submitting yourself a slave to God so that you no longer serve satan through sin, and thus reproduce righteousness, which by the way is impossible to achieve outside of being a slave to God and His kingdom rule.

Originally this thought word turn out to be a prophetic word for our church and because I believe it also applies to the global state of the church, I decided to share it in the hopes that it will help some of us soldiers, farmers, and athletes of God. Yes, I just cheap-plugged my own future message about soldiers, farmers, and athletes of which will be titled something like the three vocational attributes and behaviors of authentically born-again Christians. Boopsie-bow-wow, God just gave me that as the title so it will be the title. Look for it soon as it is imperative we understand those three attributes within our very selves.

So shortly before I was to share this message God confirmed that I was on the right track. You know it is reassuring to know that you are on the right track with God when He asks you to do something.

Right soon as I closed my eyes to begin entering into our weekly prayer meeting, I saw the following statement, “We can often grow more weary waiting for the will of God than we can in going in the wrong direction. I didn’t try to give an interpretation as I thought as I read it that it could mean several different things depending on who hears it, and so I left it alone confident that I was on the right track with this message.

I was going to change the prophetic message for this podcast and just now decided against it. So, you will be getting the same message that God gave our church. To shift into the teaching mode for just a second, this is the prophetic gift as outlined in 1 Cor 12:8-10 and not the office of a prophet as described in Eph chapter 4. Listen for these three attributes of the prophetic gift, edification (building up), exhortation (encouragement), and comfort.

Let’s pray that we keep at the forefront of our minds and spirits our determination, our press, our sticktuativeness, our endurance to keep pressing forward and to fight for the things, that is the ministry, relationships, jobs, creative ideas, finances, and/or health that God is trying to manifest through you, even though for a time or season you do not see the horizon of victory.

So, as I was waking up, the topic or thought of “serving other gods” kept popping into my head. Now, I knew that even though my body was yet still sleeping, as I wasn’t wide-eyed yet, and but my spirit was awake and that it was receiving this “serving other gods” drift. I had already done some messages on this topic, but could see fairly easily, that God wanted me to do another message regarding this subject.

Listen, what happened in the garden, and for the reason that it happened, which was to separate mankind from God Himself and to immediately turn us to serving and worshipping other gods, as this is our innate default when we reject the One true God, and satan knew this, and so but this will be happening in these last days, and in fact is already happening right now. The more people that turn away from God, by a preprogrammed “we must worship something” default, they will invite the power of darkness over this land and begin in larger scale that we have ever encountered, to worship all things false gods empowered in many cases by demonic power.

So I thought I would stretch the current AI capabilities and ask it a question that I didn’t actually think it could come up with. But it did. The question was, “How many professing Christians know about demonic warfare?” The following is the response to that question:

While a majority of Christians believe in the devil (roughly 58% to 92% depending on the study), the active understanding or knowledge of demonic spiritual warfare varies greatly. Many believers are considered unaware of this battle, often leading to “it”, (this is my comments: that is spiritual warfare, or to put it in an even more stricter sense, the work of satan and his demons, being overlooked, feared, or misunderstood as mere psychological issues, despite scriptural references to it.

I cannot express just how much I love learning about God. If you stick to it you will never run out of fresh material, that is you will never run out of fresh revelation to be more specific.

So, my lovely audience of listeners, how many rapture and tribulation messages have I done? Not enough fo-sure, but like the others this one takes a different angle and provides a timeline of the events left to happen before poof. Not setting dates or anything like that, it’s just more of a chronological series of events that will eventually lead up to the rapture and then to the seven years of tribulation.

My sources for this message Steve Cioccolanti's book titled, “The four horsemen of the Apocalypse - the greatest warning of the next 10 years” as well as Google AI. I recommend Stevens’ books as they are timely, accuracy, prophetic, and teach us well of the things that “were”, “are”, and “will be”.

Let’s go big or rather high first:

Well in an ignorantly-adopting-lies sort of way, this message might please some of those who really feel like they want to go through the tribulation of God, that is His judgement against all unrighteousness, to preach the those who have no intention of listening to any preachers including angels (Rev 14:6-7), 144,000 radical Jewish evangelists (Rev 7:1-8), or the two end time profits who are supernaturally empowered to perform miracle signs and wonders (Rev 11:3-12), and therefore, because of their self-imposed pious potion they do not believe in a God who tells the truth always. Ok so restated for simplicity, they do not believe that God would remove all of the authentically born-again Christians from the planet leaving the rest of the fake-believers, make-believers, non-believers, and those who are stuck in the valley of indecision to the devil and his Wiley-ways. Ah sounds pious right? And but of course they would be partially correct in that God wouldn’t do that as His word states He desires that all men be saved (1 Tim 2:4, 2 Peter 3:9, Is 45:22, & 49:6), and that His soul takes no pleasure in the death of one who dies (Ezek 18:23, & 33:11). So what assurance do we have that God will not have left the fake-believers, make-believers, non-believers, and those who are stuck in the valley of indecision to the devil? I just left that easter egg on the front porch. The 144,000 Jewish gospel fire-brands and the two end time prophets. And let us not forget that some of the fake-believers, make-believers, non-believers, and those who are stuck in the valley of indecision will have woken up once they found out that they missed the big signs and left their containers of oil home (Matt 25:1-13).

Do flies and lies rhyme for a reason, ha, but no I won’t be weird throughout the whole message.

So, in working on this message, meaning as I got nearer to the end I came back to the beginning and thought I would share some incites so that you can be looking for the purpose and intention of this manage for these end times. I saw that it was taking an interesting turn. My focus was going to be strictly on the topic of lies and I think I covered or uncovered them for what there intended purposes are and will be, but I noticed a parallel message in this process, which is that there seems to be also an emphasis on waking out of your self-imposed stupor. And well if you are not stooped that doesn’t mean God will neglect what you need from this message. I believe God is pleading for your very soul, and for the very souls of those in whom you know who are heading for a dreadfully awful place of which there are no second chances for escape. We cannot save anybody after they go to hell.

Preaching the gospel in power, and sometimes prefaced with advanced prayer is the only thing that will wake up the sleeping Christians and the fake-believers, make-believers, non-believers, and those stuck in the valley of indecision.

1 Cor 2:4-5 - 4 And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, 5 that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

If you don’t know the God of power then you are preaching with no power if you are indeed preaching at all.

We as authentically born-again believers will be held in account for the ministry God has given to each of His disciples. So, I thought I would wrap around topside and include this paragraph at the beginning of the message so that you understand it has a parallel message and does not let no one off the hook. That little symbolism will come to light as we move on.

One last thing before we get started is that I expect, in love, that you will look up any referenced scriptures; not necessarily the ones I include in their entirety, but those just referenced so that you understand the message more comprehensively. And to support this position I leave you with some scriptures to look up that will help (Matt 13:19, Luke 8:12, Pro 2:1-6, Ps 119:130, 2 Tim 2:15, Deut 4:1-10, and Matt 4:4). Keep in mind that some of the scriptures provided are preventative and others are supportive of the theme of what was just stated.

We open with a question: Generally speaking what is needed Before any action takes place?

1. Knowledge

2. Understanding

3. Wisdom

4. Instruction

5. Perception

If we move ahead without these ideal elements in place we are headed for a sure disaster. Yes, for those who are trained up well on the Word these elements tend to be transparent and happening in the background every time a task comes up that requires action. So, it would only be a little tedious for those who haven't yet taken these steps when they make decisions, but the reward is immense. Applying them can assure you that you can avoid making unnecessary mistakes in life which can cost you plenty in resources such as time, money, materials, lost businesses, and the absence of these can even damage relationships:

Rom 12:2 - 2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

So now We want to dissect one of the hinge words in that scripture I define it as a swing word, in which the rest of the scripture hinges on. Let's take a look at the meaning of that word conformed using Google AI:

Something has been standing out as I read the Bible cover to cover which is the phase and/or thought of serving other gods. Now I say cover to cover but what it is, is that I am reading the Ethiopian bible as it contains the whole bible canon as well as other books of which I would call solid historical records of various events. My study is on the events that will circle around meaning the connection between the book of Revelation back to Genesis. The scripture that is leading my study and research direction for 2026 is:

Luke 17:26-30 - 26 And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: 27 They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. 28 Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; 29 but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. 30 Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.

I will give you “rapture” types an easter egg which is that both of these events, besides speaking of things of which I will momentarily discuss, also speak of a type of rapture. This is important for us to pay attention to because God is many things, but one thing for sure is that He is consistent. Notice how Noah, his family, and Lot and some of his family were removed from the scene of Gods wrath and judgement before Gods wrath and judgement fell upon those people who were unrepentant and willingly living in sin? Rapture all day long, the difference is that they didn’t get caught up, but they did get removed before Gods wrath fell upon those people so we call this a rapture type event similar to Paul’s, John’s, and Philip’s. You can give ear to my latest rapture type message titled, “Veloci-rapture” posted February 04, 2026 for my latest list of 10-biblically proven rapture and rapture-type events. Adding these two stories now makes it 12 rapture and rapture-type events, and but no worries because there is way more than that but how much evidence do we need to prove the consistency of God anyway?

Ok so what about the days of Noah and Lot? What is hidden in plain site and dodged by more pastors as the strange belief that certain messages in the bible are too controversial, so we don’t talk about them. In my vey last message titled, “Fractured from Birth End Time Clarification Beginning In Genesis and ending In Revelation”, I addressed how too many pastors and teachers pick and chose what they will speak on or teach on so as to maintain a spirit of inclusiveness. Let’s see if we can find a biblical definition of what this looks like:

2 Tim 4:1-5 - 4 I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom: 2 Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; 4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. 5 But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.

So as I have been going through the eschatology, that is the study of the end times of which we are in right now, I came across a book titled, “Psalms 82 - The divine council of the gods, the judgment of the watchers and the inheritance of the nations” written by Brian Godawa, I saw something that triggered this message. He had something to say on it but I wanted to give it a go from my own angle. He has written some very interesting end-times books.

So we have, if you have been a consistent listener, I say this so that you don’t think I used the word “we” in a position of assumption. We all have different rates of growth especially in these days of mountains of distractions, excuses, and deceptive lines of teaching, i.e. false Teachers, false prophets, false apostles, wolves in sheep's clothing, which can include The regular attendees at church known as the Saints of God, or the pastors. You might be saying well why bring up all of these falsies as it relates to the rate of growth a Christian can make. And I bring them up because what happens is that we get overly hyper sensitive or cautious to moving off of what we already know to be true or what we think to be true. And So what happens is that we slow the rate of growth at which we can grow. We are slow to adopt new teaching, new revelation, or old revelation in modern language. I think this is most expressed when I hear the statements I can hear from God and know that I do. Now in humility there's nothing wrong with this statement, but far too often what it really reveals is a difficulty one has in hearing or seeing what God is doing in these current days.

In my studying in the last couple of years there seems to be a lot of contradictory information out there regarding what people think the Bible says and as a teacher this is frustrating because I see the purpose of it which is that people would make the excuse that the Bible is too difficult to understand and nobody can seem to agree on what it says. Now if you were the Antichrist isn't this the perfect strategy that you would want to play so that when you come back you can affirm that what they think is right? Of course, but we seem to be a little short sighted in the strategies of the devil in these days

Now boy oh boy have I seen some interesting reactions to this topic as it unfolded. But I simply leave it to you to decide for yourself. I am in no way attempting to get people to see the bible my way. I am not interested in that. And as discussed in my message titled, “Do You Know Your Doctrine”, posted March 04, 2026 I stated that our doctrine and the gospel are non-negotiables. But all of the other stuff we can have varying understandings without conflict. No two Christians are in the exact same place regarding God. Now we have some basic guidelines to ensure the people we listen to do not lead us astray. Follow those and you can now be free to learn and to also learn and get new revelations about the things of God. And I only say new because it is as we grow that we finally see what has always been in the bible. And any and all revelation should line up with the word of God adding nothing to or taking anything away from the existing revelations, the law or the gospel of Jesus Christ. Now don’t you feel better? No doubt I bet you are wondering what we will be learning today.

Oh and before I forget, this small picture in time actually goes back to Gen chapter 6 when the sons of God had sex with women and brought with them heavenly knowledge to earth that was intended to stay in heaven. The book of Enoch shares some of that history. No it is not cannon, which is that it is not deemed scripture but it is deemed a reliable historical document. I will include a snippet so that we have the larger picture as we process what Ham may have done and why it is so significant and where the root of that sin may have come from. The article is from readingacts.com and its author is Philip Long. You can also get the story from the Ethiopian bible that considers this a part of their bible:

The Book of the Watchers describes the fallen angels (1 Enoch 6-8). In the biblical story of the Nephilim, the sons of God saw the daughters of men were beautiful so they married them and had children (Gen 6:1-4). These children were called the Nephilim, the “mighty men who were of old, the men of renown.” In Genesis, the story shows how far the wickedness of humans had become: humans interacted sexually with spiritual beings. No details are given on how this might be possible, but the next verse in Genesis says “the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intention of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.” This brief story is tantalizing: who are these “sons of God” and what were the Nephilim? 1 Enoch offers an expansion of this biblical story in chapters 6-11. Are the Nephilim fallen angels?

In 1 Enoch, the sons of God are the “sons of heaven,” angelic beings led by Shemihazah. The name Shemihazah (שׁמיחזה, šemîḥăzāh) means “My name has seen” and is sometimes vocalized as Semyaz of Semyaza (Nickelsburg, 179). “Name” refers to God, so the name refers to constantly watching God. This is ironic since God will see this rebellion and render judgment on the Shemihazah. Some readers want to find some reference to Satan as the leader of fallen angels in the Book of Enoch. As the story progresses, however, Azazel emerges as the ringleader (but later Enoch will intercede on behalf of Azazel). This is an example of how foolish (and impossible) it is to project modern Christian angelology on 1 Enoch. Azazel is not the modern version of Satan at all!

Now that’s an interesting title and long as well for such a short revelation. I will be simply contrasting a couple of bible characters and then ask some questions. Now when I ask those questions if you maintain a stiff upper lip and decide to never tune in again, then for sure this podcast is not for you. I am only interested in those who are teachable and who maintain a humble spirit. Am I greater than Jesus that I would be able to convince a stiff-necked, hard-hearted student that effective learning is proven effective by how much you are willing to change. And but if you are not willing to change then again who am I? If Jesus didn’t violate someone’s free will, even if it meant hell down the road, then how can I? I would be in great error to try. The receipt of truth is determined by a Holy Spirit working in the open minds and hearts of those who can receive His truth.

A teacher’s job must remain grounded in truth and in love but separate from the emotional whims of this or that person. The truth need not be adjusted, or as is happening in these very days, being compromised so that it comes off inclusive and acceptance of everyone. This is not how it works says God in and all over His bible:

2 Tim 2:15 - Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Have you ever wondered why the office of teacher does not exist in many churches? I wonder what Paul, Jesus or the Holy Spirit would have to say about that (John 14:26).

My thought is that it is a rare bird who gets taught so well and applies their greatest efforts in learning that by practicing what it being taught that they might be like their teacher:

Luke 6:40 - 40 A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is perfectly trained will be like his teacher.

I like to think that perfectly trained could also be stated “completely and thoroughly trained.” So, why so few ever make this mark? Because the devil has found a way to puff up the people of God causing them to balk at new revelation (1 Cor 8:1). I think it also involves a spirit of fear, and reflects a gap in our faith that God can keep us from falling into error (2 Tim 1:7).

In between the giants and end time studies we interrupt our regularly broadcasted messages for a message on wisdom which is needed in these very end time days.

Person-identification; personification. I did make that up but with the intent that you understand that there are spirits that are personified, or that are likened to human traits. Oh now we have to be careful that we do not attribute them to the human race as they are first of all spirits.

Ok let me show you before we get to her and her story of our need for her, that is wisdom.

Gen 4:7 - 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.”

So we see how sin is alive and how it has a desire, a human or person trait. No it is not human but a spirit that reflects human traits. And but it is one hundred percent evil.

A good test could be to imagine this scripture applying to a tree. Can a tree desire to rule over you? Nope.

Let’s look at another few examples in Romans to see sins personification:

Rom 6:11-14 - 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.

For sin to have dominion over you it should but also have the power to do so. Can a tree have dominion over you? Nope. Sin; It’s alive, its alive…ha, next:

Rom 7:9 - 9 I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died.

What, click, click, click…I would, if I didn’t believe God was in this message, might hear the clicking off of this message, just because of that one word, “doctrine.”

I sounds so formally religious and high-level professionally academic.

Let’s define from dictionary.com:

1. a particular principle, position, or policy taught or advocated, as of a religion or government.

Catholic/Protestant doctrines;

the Monroe Doctrine.

Synonyms:

belief, precept, theory, dogma, tenet

1. something that is taught; teachings collectively.

religious doctrine.

1. a body or system of teachings relating to a particular subject.

the doctrine of the Catholic or Protestant Church.

I still hear yuckiness, but to give it a fair shake, I think we should move into some sample creeds, which are supposed to be a conglomeration of bible based doctrines, and see if this process makes it more sensible, as to the reason we should know the non-negotiables within our Christian belief. Why? Because it makes it less possible for someone to come along in an antichrist spirit, or a fake-believer, make-believer, non-believer, or anybody stuck in the valley of indecision to get you to compromise, and that is an end time strategy that you must know will be; no it is at play right now, and many churches have already took the bait. To make it simple, any church that performs marriage ceremonies between woman, to woman or man to man, and eventually person to animal is outside of bible supported doctrine.

So, if it happened to them, it could happen to us. Therefore, we must know our non-negotiables, so we don’t negotiate or compromise.

This is a bit of a shorty but a must see and understand in these end times.

Ok so it’s a modification of a slogan for vegetables beginning in 1928 eventually this giant became a mascot and rep for the company. And nearly all, of the kids in my generation, we knew exactly what it meant; vegetables.

But this message is about the real original giants that inhabited and maybe still do inhabit this planet.

One of my source documents is from a book written by Rick Renner titled, “Fallen Angels, Giants, Monsters And The World Before The Flood - How The Events of Noah's Ark & The Flood Are Relevant To The End Of The Age. I recommend Ricks books on the end times as they are nothing short of eye opening and sensationally written and supported by scripture.

So we can rarely take the credit for creating anything new right? Solomon stated there is nothing new under the sun:

Eccl 1:9 - That which has been is what will be, That which is done is what will be done, And there is nothing new under the sun.

Notice that it states, “…That which has been is what will be…)?

And well if we look hard at the Genesis account we also find something that is also telling:

Gen 6:4 - 4 There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward,

And why not follow this as if it, the giant thing were to ever happen again, again, that is if they are not already here. God forbid we find a giant in the melting Arctic circle ice whereby we experimenting war types can extract some of its DNA and move to cloning such beasts. And no it doesn’t matter that we know that they were bent on the complete and thorough destruction of mankind, those who are of possessed and ambitious minds satan can and will use. More on this later.

Matt 24:37-39 - 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.

Ok so I was reading a book this morning titled, How To Keep Your Head On Straight In A World Gone Crazy written by Rick Renner and yes I recommend that you look into his books for a right-now revelation of what is secretly unfolding right before our eyes. Now it’s not a secret because the bible states that what is happening right now would happen, but because it has already crept into mainstream Christianity and the world culture, many will not be looking for these signs. And but there is a great concern that if you do not take your Christianity seriously, and mine out the revelation that God is so willing to reveal to us end-timer saints, then you will compromise your faith and slip out of heaven right into the place that was originally created for the demons, and it will have happened right under your noise:

Matt 25:41 - 41 “Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels:

God is really doing everything He can to get our attention, everything. It is our part of the responsibility within our relationship with Him to listen to His Holy Spirit and pay heed and special attention to what’s happening right now. If you ever prayed or thought that you wanted to be a part of the end time church you will no doubt find that your pray has been answered. Let’s get into this message.

I was reading about some end time conditions and behaviors that, unfortunately long ago and even in these end-of-days, crept into the church. This message a part of another message that has been revised for this presentation. It actually has very valuable homework which will be discussed at the end of the message. I and those who attend our church, Arise Paradise in Paradise Ca, began the weeklong assignment which is tailored to locate where we are at as Christians. So often we exaggerate the things we do for God, by claiming we spend inordinate amounts of time in our religion. This assignment will prove you right or help you to make some adjustments. We are the end time Delta Force of the church. Many have gone before us and gave their lives for the church, we should have but the same commitment in our relationship with the One true living God and savior Jesus Christ as they did.

Wow I usually get titles before the message, but I really struggled with what to title this one as I believe the title should reveal the content of what is being said. My initial thought was to call it, “Why The Flood Again.” But I would have to explain the word again and this would have taken the message in another direction. This is really a message about what is happening right under our Laodicean Church noises and I am sure this wont work out well for the church or for those who depend on the church to fulfill its calling. Of course you know by now that I am into the end times stuff because many who are paying attention are also talking about it. Not the sensationalist who work for the like strike button, but for those who authentically care about these last of last days. No one could have imagined what these days would look like for the end time church, and now that it is upon us, no one seems to care but those ever so few. And Didn’t Jesus, Peter and Paul warn us that this would happen? Alright let’s get it.

Ok so it’s been a great season of researching and focusing on the book of Revelation this year so far. Giants, Dragons, Watchers, two floods not one, what did satan look like in the garden and why it wasn’t a snake that was speaking to Eve, where did the giants come from after they were destroyed in the flood, and so much more. But in this deluge of information something stood out that I thought I would hit the pause button on my reading and share in a message. Humm so I think the best way to begin is to open with a question. Did God destroy the earth simply because of sin? Oh, I know you might add hey Podcast Preacher it was the giants as well, to which I wouldn’t disagree, but would add another question which is what were they doing that was causing God earth-destroying grief? Eve and Adam sinned and their sin didn’t move God to destroy the earth with a giant bubble bath. I mean if sin was enough to tip the scales of Gods grace and mercy, we today wouldn’t be here right this very moment. Surely, we are over our necks in committing abominable sins and have over-flowed the sin cup many millions of times since the last flood. So, there had to be something else going on that triggered God if indeed He could be triggered, and I am not talking about an emotional trigger but one of righteousness.

I will be doing future messages on some of those topics mentioned above including the giants and the mysterious crossover from the flood event to the rest of the Old Testament times.

Well, my thought is if I cannot get up my driveway due to snow and ice which precludes me from attending my Churches prayer meeting then I will prepare a message about another testimony that has happened just February 19, 2027. Yes, I included the date so as to codify it. Ha, no but since living here in Paradise I have had 8 of these types of things happen and I want to share so that you can be encouraged that you too can walk in such things as long as you do not doubt. Allow me to build this message a bit so as to encourage you to take some faith risks in these very near to end of days times.

So, lets ground this message with a scripture:

Mark 11:22-24 - 22 So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have (the) faith of God. 23 For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. 24 Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

Isn’t this scripture interesting in that it is talking about nature or about the things in the natural and not specifically talking about casting out demons or healing people? Yes, of course it is interesting. Why? Because we have been given authority over everything but God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit, and anything that God doesn’t desire to happen, or a better way of saying that is anything against His will. Outside of this we are free to move about the planet. Should we ignore demons, and those who need healing just so we can uproot mountains and shift the landscape of the planet? Of course not, but in the same token we should not holster our weapon during things like weather events, natural disasters, finances, resources, uprooting and replanting, etc. Look again:

I love discovering new and yet but already existing things about God. Yes, we teachers teach on the revelation or light that we have at the time that we are teaching something specific, but if we continue to seek God and His treasures, we will increase in more light and revelation which means that at times what we taught was wrong, or as in most cases with me just incomplete. Does this happen with every message I teach? No of course not. Many things in the bible are unchangeable such as who is God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit and what it is that they have tasked us to do and how each of them, which represents one God, helps us to accomplish His will in our lives. Pretty much unchangeable although His will is tailored to each of us and is somehow magically joined to the will and purposes of others within the church.

I remember recently I discovered that the Joel 2:21-29 which was quoted by Peter in the book of Acts 2:16-18 specifically when Peter replied to the accusers who stated that they were drunk, no, no, no this is what was spoken by the Prophet Joel. The key word is this. For many people they talk of a future date that, that prophesy will come to pass but beginning on the day of Pentecost, it happened. And but now I did state in my previous message I am not sure how it is that God has poured out His Spirit since that time. You see I had no more light to go past that thought. But in my continual pursuit, I learned that the words, “in the last days” verse 17 includes the church age. The church age represents the near end of the last 2000 years. So now in understanding that, events like the Azusa Street Revival and the Jesus Movement to name just a couple of events make sense. He, that is God is pouring out His Spirit in and through those types of events. No, it is not limited to Revivals, Awakenings, and Renewals, but it is just most commonly witnessed in those larger outpourings.

Now and just so I don’t leave you with the thought that is still being taught which is that God is pouring out His Spirit on “all” flesh, that you think everybody who is alive will receive the Holy Spirit. There is no president in the bible for God giving non-believers, fake-believers, make-believers, or those in the valley of indecision, and to be more blunt, those practicing unrighteousness, his Holy Spirit. He wouldn’t do that. The Holy Spirit is for believers or for those being saved. And if you get stuck in literalism then we can expect by that specific interpretation that God would be giving Apes, Gorilla’s, Giraffes, Fishes of the sea, and flying birdies His Spirit as it does say all flesh and not humans. Ha, wow we gotta have fun these trying days…

So this is a little story in which I compare my VW driving days in which I did much of the tune up and engine work on the car myself. If I wanted to go professionally fast I paid the professionals to build those motors.

Now even back when we mostly worked on our own cars in the 80’s and 90’s, we usually didn’t check the oil in our car to see, first, if it has any metal flakes, is too dirty, or if it smells like gasoline, which is indicative of a problem with the engine or fuel system. I did say that we don’t do these things first. What we do is to limit our scope and only check on whether we need any additional oil. It is a habit of many to avoid going beyond that step. Funny how we are risk takers by our very natures. We see that the oil is at the dipstick line and we insert the oil stick back in its place and roar on down the road fully believing that all is well.

Do we also carry over this habit in our spiritual walk with God? Oh, we all want more oil; well those who understand what that even means want more oil. But so lets look at the similarities of how we treat our car oil and our walk with God.

Setting short-term and long-term goals to improve and increase in your walk with God is insuring you have oil in your car. It is the first step, but without further inquiry and possible discovery, we leave the cars continued performance to chance. Setting goals and checking the oil level is the first step.

If nothing is done beyond this point, it is pointless.

Ok so you know sometimes I like to leave a topic intact as an author may have written it. In this little message there are a couple of pages on what the responsibilities are of someone who claims the pulpit responsibility. And what I like about it is its distinguishing comments designed to help us who maybe don’t give that pulpit the respect and honor it requires. Oh, I know you may have issues in the past with those who may have abused their position, but we were already told in advance that there would be those who would try and take the church apart. There are too many scriptures to support that statement so I will leave it to you to search out.

So, this section is just a couple of pages from the book titled, “Signs You’ll See Just Before Jesus Comes written by Rick Renner. I recommend you buy and read any of his books as they are factual and relevant in speaking on today’s events

It’s a sporty shorty so let’s ear up:

Let's look at what preaching and teaching does for the heart and soul of the hearer when it is done in the power of the Holy Spirit.

So now why is the rapture, such a focused-on event, but in these very days, such an ignored event? Because it triggers a duality of events happening at the same time. Ha, but we are all wrong at some point along our growth because we can only believe what we currently understand. When more revelations or increased revelations come then we are able to understand more as long as we are open to it. That right there is the combination that unlocks the mystery of learning the bible. As soon as you make a decision, consciously or subconsciously, that you have it all figured out based on natural factors like time reading the bible, or number of religious degrees earned, or how long you pray, or how much you give, etc., then you have locked your mind and heart up for additional revelation. And but you should know that we will get revelation all the way out of our old bodies and into heaven. We never outgrow learning unless it is, even unintentionally.

Ok so one event is in heaven and the other is on earth and they are happening at the very same time. Now on Earth the 7-year tribulation is in full swing. Israel has signed a 7-year peace treaty with the anti-christ which at that time has been revealed, so it gives us an idea as to when they will sign the 7-year treaty (Dan 9:27/Is 28:15-18/1 Thes 5:3).

Once the church gets taken out of the way, that is caught up, through the rapture event, the veil was lifted and the antichrist appeared. Its as if he was behind a church curtain just waiting for his opportunity.

2 Thes 2:6-7 - 6 And now you know what is restraining, that he (anti-christ) 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.

Google AI adds to this:

A catching away or rapture more fully means, "a catching away just in the nick of time", and it strongly suggests that the rapture of the church will occur in a very dark moment:

A "catching away" or "rapture" is defined in the Greek as harpazō, which means to seize, snatch, take away by force, or carry off. Found in 1 Thessalonians 4:17, it implies a sudden, decisive, and powerful removal, often used to describe taking someone out of danger or snatching them to safety.

Ok so if we look at two of Jesus disciples and exam their journey with Jesus we will discover that walking with Jesus wasn’t really no different for them than it is for us today. No they simply couldn’t leave the church upon a disagreement and start another denomination, but they had the same human issues back then that we have today which are at times so heated that we do in fact leave the flock and start our own herd somewhere else. And no doubt we hope that some of the healthier sheep will follow our lead, 1) to vindicate our position and but 2) to also prove to the other disagreeing leadership that even some of their own sheep agreed with our position which should demonstrate to you that we are right in doing so.

Oh, I know I must have just made that up, but anyway we should join Jesus in walking out His journey while dealing with us humans.

As we no doubt have read about Peter and John in the gospels and other such letters throughout the New Testament, we have also been spiritually inebriated with the depths of trying to understand all that they contributed to the New Testament themselves. Peter wrote two books, 1st and 2nd Peter, and John wrote the Gospel of John, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd John along with the book of Revelation. John was known as the Apostle of love and Peter more like an abrasive tough guy.

Now if we just review what they wrote we would think that the inspiration came purely from the Holy Spirit and maybe didn’t include any experiential aspects of their lives and relationship with each other.

Now unlike what we tend to do in todays church which is to ostracize someone that goes stray, or even just someone in whom we disagree with either by spreading rumors or quietly disassociating ourselves from them, and in the worst cases going to social media or playing the character-assassinator via text or email messaging, and of course on purpose leaving them out of the messaging group.

Ok so I like to keep you updated on my learning as I believe it is fun to learn things that have been sitting right in front of our faces in the bible, but that it took a certain somebody to catch it or to point it out. It actually is a perfect representation of the body of christ working together. This is why the “Loner-Christian” mentality, unless you are a modern-day Enoch, is not a very good idea (Gen 5:24). Even Paul had his bro’s.

Now but a little scripture snack on Enoch. How old is he? If you say 365 years old then you would be mistaken, because in Hebrews it states:

Heb 11:5 - 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.

Now and but so now that he went in his old body and hasn’t yet received his new body he is near 6000 years old. I wonder how many Archaeologists know that bitty-ditty.

So but if you haven’t picked up on it yet, there is a lot of hoopla on the end times, and well hoopla is a loser word than I ought to use, least you think I am just making light of this fact. If you have been following me on my learning journey last years goals were to slow down on podcast posts, a direct order from God papa, and to hang tight as some things were to take place that would be astounding. And but also while I was at it I got my healing from decade-long illnesses, and dropped all of the pharmakeia or potion of sorcerers, out of my life, so no more taking 15-pills a day. And finally, to nutshelling that year, I decided to read an impossible number of books to prepare for, well I am still not sure what I was preparing for but when God gives to the grace to do something you do it. And sense I had the time I took the challenge on and completed my 12-month period reading 605 books and booklets of which the bible was one of those books.

And so but ha, no but check it out, I have been doing some reading, thinking, and seeking and searching for the flow of what God is saying in these days. And so but my thought is that if we are in the last days, meaning near the 4th of a total of 7-raptures which are as stated in other messages such as this 4-part series titled, “Rapture – Get Right Or Get Left by Hilton Sutton,” which was posted on October 28, 2025. You can also just buy the book by the same name as the messages. The books are authored by Hilton Sutton. The messages are simply a reading of his book. Anyway, he is not the only one that has brought this up, and no worries as there are many others who don’t think that one rapture is eminent let alone a total of 7-scripturally proven raptures. But then Eve was and is not the only one deceived by her limited understanding of God even in her time living before sin was made alive (Gen 3:6, 4:7). Ouch I know right, and but what is important is that we understand that when we pull the e-brake of our spiritual growth, the e-brake representing the story as outlined in the book of Luke 5:37-39, we lock into old-wine thinking, and wasn’t this the problem in the days of Noah, Lott, and the churches of Jesus day (Luke 17:26-30)? Ok so quickly the 7-raptures that have and will be taking place in this thing we call time:

1. Enoch

2. Elijah

3. Jesus

4. The Church (Philadelphia specifically)

5. Great multitude

6. 144,000

7. The two witnesses

Specifically spelled out in scriptures such as 2 Thes 2:1-12 specifically verse 6, supported by what it states in Matt 16:18, 24:37-42, Mark chap 13, Luke chap 21, John 14:3 and then we have the strategic scriptures such as 1 Cor 15:51-53, 1 Thes 4:13-17, Rev 3:7-13, and others, but since I have done many messages on the tribulations, and have even changed my thinking on them as I have been taught new information, that I did not initially see, such as going from 1-rapture to 7.

So another way of saying this is Encountering God's Power In The Midst Of Resist. Yup, it’s the same thing as saying that you are a willful sinner and that you believe the power you have to resist God is greater than the power of God has to resist you, and so therefore you remain a willful sinner:

Jer 27:7-9 - O Lord, You induced me, and I was persuaded;
You are stronger than I, and have prevailed.
I am in derision daily;
Everyone mocks me.
8 For when I spoke, I cried out;
I shouted, “Violence and plunder!”
Because the word of the Lord was made to me
A reproach and a derision daily.
9 Then I said, “I will not make mention of Him,
Nor speak anymore in His name.”
But His word was in my heart like a burning fire
Shut up in my bones;
I was weary of holding it back,
And I could not.

So of course, I had to put that human strength argument to bed so that we understand our position as it relates to Dad.

Now this message is not to insight you to foolishness, nor is it to lead you to be one of those religious people who think God needs their brains and wit to keep things in order as it relates to everyone else who is doing the work of God:

Jer 10:14 – Everyone is dull-hearted, without knowledge;
Every metalsmith is put to shame by an image;
For his molded image is falsehood,
And there is no breath in them.

Jer 4:22 – For My people are foolish,
They have not known Me.
They are silly children,
And they have no understanding.
They are wise to do evil,
But to do good they have no knowledge.”

Oh I know that we are in a different dispensation, but like in the days of Jesus, some tried to bring in the old dispensation into the new one.

Luke 5:36-39 - 36 Then He spoke a parable to them: “No one puts a piece from a new garment on an old one; otherwise the new makes a tear, and also the piece that was taken out of the new does not match the old. 37 And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine will burst the wineskins and be spilled, and the wineskins will be ruined. 38 But new wine must be put into new wineskins, and both are preserved. 39 And no one, having drunk old wine, immediately desires new; for he says, ‘The old is better.’ ”

This message is packed-smacked full of treasure so getting your writing and recording shovels out and prepare to dig.

This message is packed-smacked full of treasure so getting your writing and recording shovels out and prepare to dig.

Now we know that there are three streams of wisdom: 1) wisdom of the world which I believe was corrupted through sin, otherwise it could be a reliable source of wisdom when bonded to the wisdom of God. Let’s look at two right out the gate:

1 Cor 3:19-20 - 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, “He catches the wise in their own craftiness”; 20 and again, “The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile.”

There you go. The world has wisdom but compared to the counsel of God it is foolishness. And how many people think that they are wise in their own small minds when trying to impress the humanly ignorant using fancy words and unfounded facts and truths to come off looking intelligent. Stand them next to Jesus and all of that pride will either make them murderously mad or humbly humble. Also notice that those who access the wisdom of the world, which is very limited in its scope, are crafty. Some of the most obvious people thinking that they were or are wise beyond people’s understanding of comprehension is in the medical field, pharmaceutical industry, commercial industry, addiction perpetuation industries, academic industries, oh no wait. Think about how many academics preach against God, or try and teach that there is no God, or that zero plus zero equals humanity.

The angels must look down and maybe at least think of asking God if this whole salvation plan is the best option. Ha, considering that the God who created those who oppose Him, not considering that they wouldn’t even be alive to oppose Him if in fact it wasn’t for Him, are declaring and shouting in full out rebellion, as if there is a reward for shaking your fist in the face of God, there is no God! I did this and I am an academic nut who could support my stance with ill-founded logic, or simply by making the believer sound like a complete fool. Ha, and yet did I know it was I who was the fool in every way. I may as well have taken up the cause to tell everyone that the world is flat, or that gravity only exists in the minds of the weak, or that air or oxygen is not necessary to sustain life. Oh, don’t feel bad for me, I just needed to work around those in whom I thought were smart or just in a better station in life than myself to see that they were lost nutjobs, not at all unlike myself.

Now I ask why me God? You had every right to vaporize me to make a point. It’s like the picture of a 10-year-old kid staring at his dad right in the face and calling him stupid because his father doesn’t believe what the kids teacher just taught him, and the father’s response is to simply love him until his kid comes around. Love, and especially Gods love, is truly baffling.

Ok so this is a follow up to my message Crutch Theology and if you haven’t yet heard it you should give it an ear so as to get the context at a deeper level regarding this fun little message.

Keep in mind as we navigate through this message that no matter what you believe God is be it One God, One God with a Son who represents God, or the most popular belief which is that He is trinity, meaning three in One; that is He is God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit; all being equal but functioning in a Oneness team roll which simply means that each has Their roll in the Godhead, this of course excluding any other idea about who God is, because outside of this window of thought you would have to leave the scriptures to come up with any other scenario. This is how we ended up with so many in spiritual error serving false gods instead of the One and only God.

Anyway no matter, you will be fine regarding your Salvation as long as you live to serve God through the forgiving blood of Jesus, as it is important to understand the roles, which is that salvation could only come through a perfect human. God the Father nor the Holy Spirit could save you. And but you do need the Holy Spirit to do the things of Jesus and so without Him you are a canoe on a raging river without a paddle. You cannot cast out demons, in other words, without the power of the Holy Spirit, nor the authority of Jesus.

You see, squeaky clean, and so but now lets have fun in seeking for His truth, like the treasure that He is, look:

Pro 2:1-11 - My son, if you receive my words,
And treasure my commands within you,
2 So that you incline your ear to wisdom,
And apply your heart to understanding;
3 Yes, if you cry out for discernment,
And lift up your voice for understanding,
4 If you seek her as silver,
And search for her as for hidden treasures;
5 Then you will understand the fear of the Lord,
And find the knowledge of God.
6 For the Lord gives wisdom;
From His mouth come knowledge and understanding;
7 He stores up sound wisdom for the upright;
He is a shield to those who walk uprightly;
8 He guards the paths of justice,
And preserves the way of His saints.
9 Then you will understand righteousness and justice,
Equity and every good path.

10 When wisdom enters your heart,
And knowledge is pleasant to your soul,
11 Discretion will preserve you;
Understanding will keep you,
12 To deliver you

Ok so instantly this message became a lesson on our belief foundation. The academic world as well as the bible would call this Theology and/or doctrine. And but what distinguishes Christianity from the other religions that might also use these terms is the untainted, unpolluted, never-changing, always relevant, sin-breaking, life-saving, character-changing Gospel. So, let’s define these foundational elements so that the rest of the message makes sense:

Google AI states of Theology:

Theology is the systematic study of the divine, religious beliefs, and practices, exploring questions about God, humanity's relationship with the sacred, ethics, and the meaning of life from a religious or spiritual perspective. Its core concepts involve understanding divinity, interpreting sacred texts, and analyzing faith's impact on worldview, often through branches like Systematic Theology (organizing doctrines) or Moral Theology (ethics). The purpose of theology is to deepen understanding of faith, shape life, and provide frameworks for belief and action, whether within Christianity, Judaism, Islam, or other traditions.

Core Beliefs & Concepts

Nature of the Divine:

Investigating the existence, attributes, and character of God or gods.

• Revelation:

Studying how the divine reveals itself to humanity through scripture, tradition, or experience.

• Humanity & Creation:

Exploring human nature, purpose, sin, suffering, and the relationship between humans and the divine.

• Ethics & Morality:

Examining moral principles derived from religious beliefs and their application to life.

• Salvation & Afterlife:

Contemplating concepts of redemption, eternal life, and eschatology (end times).

Major Branches & Types

• Systematic Theology:

Formulates an orderly, comprehensive account of religious doctrines, often integrating scripture, philosophy, and tradition.

• Biblical Theology:

Focuses on interpreting and understanding biblical texts and their overarching themes.

Ok so no its not about sex or anything like that, although I will be doing one in the future about the abuses in that arena sometime this year. Nope, this is about our relationship with God insofar as if we do really love Him or are just playing with Him.

I think this idea came in part from a church service we were having this last Sunday at Arise Paradise here in California, and maybe even more so because I have been reading about the Jesus Movement, watching movies about the Jesus Movement, and about the worship band named Love Song.

Now this is a high level description of this move of the Holy Spirit, and it was due to the move of the Holy Spirit that this earth-shattering Jesus move happened.

Google AI states of this move:

The Jesus Movement was a countercultural Christian revival, primarily in the U.S. during the late 1960s and early 1970s, where young hippies and "flower children" converted to a conservative, evangelical Christianity, adopting Christian themes into their lifestyle (long hair, music, casual dress) while emphasizing the simple gospel, communal living, and passionate worship, significantly influencing modern worship music, evangelism, and denominations like Calvary Chapel.

Awesome, beautiful, and way short of the significance of what-all that the Holy Spirit did in this time on earth. You know as we should always inquire if the bride is making herself ready or if the girlfriend on the side is attempting to keep her presence a secret (Rev 19:7). Now but to be clearer, and this may very well be the yearer that I try and be clearer, but then if one is in this to learn and burn with the presence of God then He will provide the understanding necessary for you to get it, and spread it. If you are the girlfriend on the side then you will do what she has always done which is to either stop the move of the Holy Spirit, or strike up controversies about those being used to grow and to help the bride come to a place of perfection and spotlessness:

Eph 5:26-27 - 26 that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, 27 that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.

All of the data that I am using is coming from Buzzsprout as this is the main platform and I believe it collects some of the other platforms data in its own data. If I use other data from the other platform I will indicate what platform it is from. No this isn’t going to be some long statistical wavey road, but I do want you to know the impact you are having on your distribution of the messages that you listen to. I am not a bugaboo and know that some people who get these sent directly to them all listen to the messages. The reasons are varied and not my business. I just provide opportunities for people to share in and partake of the gift God has placed on my life. Are Christians gifted and called to be in ministry? Yes, so I am just but one of those.

When it comes to numbers and stats I am aware of how short they can come up in telling the whole story. For example is it important that we are heard on all of the continents on the planet? Yes, but only if people listen to the teaching, are changed by it, and do what the bible states for them to do.

I get that we are in a state of spiritual warfare that most Christians are not aware of, but and I say this nicely, it is not my job to convince anyone why they should pursue an intimate relationship with God. This should be a given if you have been authentically born again. My job, and it is no job at all, is to provide a way that you can possibly grow into greater appetites for the things of God. I judge no one as I myself am in need of Gods daily grace and mercy. But you can believe me that I will do all that I can to minimize the loss of Christians being raptured and having to go through the tribulation, that is the wrath of God against all ungodliness. There are 7 raptures so don’t hang up now. And well yes why not just list them here so that you can look them up in the bible and see for yourself.

Ok so why not end 2025 on a message about the only aspect of God obtainable on earth. Nope, yup, Jesus is not obtainable without the Holt Spirit as He only does what Jesus and the Father are telling Him to tell you to do. And so but in that case where you have allowed Him to occupy your will, emotions, and spirit and heart, then you have access to the commands of Jesus and the Father. And so that being said, the Father is also not accessible without a true non-blasphemous connection to His own Holy Spirit.

Wow Podcast Preacher when you say it like this it sounds like we go nowhere as Christians without the Holy Spirit. Well, hum let’s try something. Lets, as always would be my recommendation, see what the bible has to say about it. And I know let’s look at the disadvantage you have if you are set against it:

2 Tim 3:16-17 - 16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

So yes, we are going to tap into the voice of God to prove you need the Spirit of God to get’r done. Look again before we really bullywink this message in:

Gen 1:3 - 2 The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

So we see that He was like the muscle of God if you want to get a little gangster about it. Oh, but if you are a gangster and think I am off, lets see you create Light in a world that is all but nearly swallowed up by the power of darkness. Go ahead we’ll wait. Nope, ain’t got time, this year is almost over and we have got to get this out, so nuff bout gangster jokes and all – its time to get it.

Ok so no Milk carton images went out. No amber alert sent. They just turned around in and amongst all that was distracting them along the journey and noticed that they had lost Jesus.

No but and so think about this in todays terms. Imagine for a minute you lost your 12-year old boy. Ha, and I am not picking on you, but no doubt panic would be in a panic. Our kids today are in no shape to be lost and somehow all of a sudden to become self sufficient. Nope, in fact if cell-phones, laptops, and computers were to shut down for a week, well you know when Jesus stated that he would have to intervene least we lose all of humanity, He may very well have been talking about the day when all electronics stop working. Ha, and we thought it might be a nuclear war or something. Nope, probably just a manifestation of humanity not having electronics to tell them how to eat or stuff.:

Matt 24:22 - 22 And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.

Ok so all kidding aside, you might well imagine the implications of losing your kid in today’s world. Now but, not that it wasn’t traumatic in those days, apparently one or two days without your kid was not such a big deal. Ok so we get on with a great message, and I know this because I already wrote it and so I know the end from the beginning and this is a great message.

And but so this message isn’t about “them” losing God. We know that after He was found she was a bit embarrassed, so much so that she forgot who He was. Ha, no but look at verse 48, “48 So when they saw Him, they were amazed; and His mother said to Him, “Son, why have You done this to us? Look, Your father and I have sought You anxiously.”

If Mary was correct God was also looking for Jesus as He somehow would have had to have gotten away from Him as well. But we know that Mary was incorrect when she said your father and I have been looking. Joseph wasn’t the father of Jesus, so she must have been like the lady in the following short story momentarily.

Now if you have ever lost one of your kids, when you discovered them back of the store eating candy that they had borrowed, no doubt you did not forget who they were. Oh you may have shouted out the Lords name in vain, which may have sounded like, “oh Jesus Christ we have been looking for you all over the place.” But this does not mean that you forgot, nor does it mean you were actually looking for Jesus; and so but also inadvertently you also lied, because it wasn’t Him you were looking for with that attitude. Ha, so but this message is going to be about how it is that “you” may have lost Jesus, but not as a young man, but after you became born-again. Let’s lay it down first before we get into it:

Luke 2:43-48 - 43 When they had finished the days, as they returned, the Boy Jesus lingered behind in Jerusalem. And Joseph and His mother did not know it; 44 but supposing Him to have been in the company, they went a day’s journey, and sought Him among their relatives and acquaintances. 45 So when they did not find Him, they returned to Jerusalem, seeking Him. 46 Now so it was that after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions. 47 And all who heard Him were astonished at His understanding and answers. 48 So when they saw Him, they were amazed; and His mother said to Him, “Son, why have You done this to us? Look, Your father and I have sought You anxiously.”

Contradiction is defined as:

1. the act of contradicting; gainsaying or opposition.
2. assertion of the contrary or opposite; denial.
3. a statement or proposition that contradicts or denies another or itself and is logically incongruous.
4. direct opposition between things compared; inconsistency.
5. a contradictory act, fact, etc.

So many ignorant peeps believe the bible is full of contradictions, even though it states that those in whom it has been given to understand will indeed understand but to those outside, yes if you are a non-believer, fake-believer, make-believer, or stuck in the valley of indecision, this scripture is talking about you. The God detached individual cannot understand His language, no more than if you were non-communicative towards your neighbor could you then say that you could understand them.

Matt 13:11 - 11 He answered and said to them, “Because it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.

Ok so also note the order of the conversation that this message will take insofar as the book of Mathew. First Jesus addressed the question, can you teach us how to pray. Then He told them what appears to many even in the house of a God a contradiction which is related to food, and more specifically to bread.

My proposal will be to untie the theological knot and to suggest what I believe is a more accurate way to go about praying for your daily bread. I did include the whole prayer instruction but did so because I wanted to. Ha, here we go:

Matt 6:9-13 - 9 In this manner, therefore, pray:

Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
10 Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts,
As we forgive our debtors.
13 And do not lead us into temptation,
But deliver us from the evil one.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

Ok so let’s address the pending accusational response to this message from those who depend on the pharmaceutical drug dealer to keep them leashed to toxins.

Oh that start is sure to invoke a response that might could resurrect the cancel culture. Am I against Doctors, nurses, hospitals, clinics, and such? No, by God we need them, but for who are they for if you are a reader, seer, and a doer of the word of God. Just who is this industry for? Is God behind the partially corrupt industry? Ah, but facts be that as they are 5.5 trillion dollars went to feed the pharmaceutical industry during COVID, so if you wonder as I do, what that money could have been used for had it been slated to solve actual problems instead of creating them, we can see that using the words “partially corrupt” is a kind and a deflated definition for an industry that counts on fear, manipulation, and unbelieving and doubting Christians and regular non-believing people to exist.

Oh, that’s a lot of hubbub to kick off a sort of controversial topic such as the pharmacy toxin dispensing industry such as the one we have in America. But I have support and reason for my one-sided position of which you should hang around, and if afterwards you have heard the whole message, you can then determine if you want to change your insurance carrier from Blue Cross to the Cross or not.

Boop, yup, here we go. So, Pharmacy is also termed Pharmakeia or Sorcery. Sorcery is used in the bible only six times; twice in the Old Testament and 4-times in the New Testament. And but most would associate it with witchcraft thinking that they are one and the same thing. But wait let’s look:

Numbers 23:23 - “For there is no sorcery against Jacob, Nor any divination against Israel. It now must be said of Jacob And of Israel, ‘Oh, what God has done!’

2 Chronicles 33:6 - Also he caused his sons to pass through the fire in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom; he practiced soothsaying, used witchcraft and sorcery, and consulted mediums and spiritists. He did much evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke Him to anger.

Rev 18:23 - The light of a lamp shall not shine in you anymore, and the voice of bridegroom and bride shall not be heard in you anymore. For your merchants were the great men of the earth, for by your sorcery all the nations were deceived.

Do you have an excuse prepared in advance regarding the prayers you are currently praying, before you receive a response? I say that you will know by what you do next after you hear that God is going to grant you your request. Now let's see if we have an example of this in the Bible. We will see what Luke and James have to say about this way of thinking:

We will start with some background scripture so as to avoid the, ”What is Podcast Preacher talk ‘in bout now”, comment:

Luke 1:5-6 - 5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the division of Abijah. His wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth. 6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.

Luke 1:7 – 7 But they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren, and they were both well advanced in years.

Luke 1:13-14 – 13 But the angel said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zacharias, for your prayer is heard; and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you shall call his name John. 14 And you will have joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth.

Luke 1:18 - 18 And Zacharias said to the angel, “How shall I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is well advanced in years.”

So now let’s breakdown this story about Zacharias and Elizabeth and see how it pertains to the thought that it is possible to work up and even rehearse unbelief, even but especially before we actually pray. And but if we do, do this then the question remains, why pray at all if we expect a no-show and a no-speaky from God.

And but also since this is a shorty-message I just want to be sure that this message gets on your radar as something we can do even in what we think is our own special clowd of faith. Keep in mind the scripture defines this couple as, “righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.” Ha, if anyone would have expected God to respond it should have been Zacharias who had the correct heavenly pedigree. I say this because 2026 is coming around and it is time for you to pray as if you actually expected God to respond. Lay down your expectations for how He will respond only be open to Him and to His response in and through His methods.

Poof. What? Ha, yes poof. Let’s talk about this for a moment. What is going to be so different from this world and the new heaven and the new earth? I mean what is the appeal for those who are still indecisive or at this point in time choosing this world over one that is 100% all-beef patty good. Ha, no like free of everything evil. We will do a comparative list just so you get the impact of the full exchange of the life Jesus offers you. This for that. It’s simple. Rotten for great, polluted for pure, evil for perfection, pride for humility, and so on and so forth. Ok but so perhaps I’m getting ahead of myself. Oh well but not yet. First lets take a look at the great exchange scriptures so that we can paint a perfect picture of what is at stake:

Google A.I. states “The Bible states "new heaven and a new earth" in Revelation 21:1 and Isaiah 66:22. It is also mentioned in Isaiah 65:17 and 2 Peter 3:13. These passages describe a future state of renewed creation where God will dwell with His people”.

• Revelation 21:1: "Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea".
• Isaiah 66:22: "For just as the new heavens and the new earth that I make will endure before me, declares the Lord, so will your offspring and your name endure".
• Isaiah 65:17: "For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth, and the former things shall not be remembered or come into mind".
• 2 Peter 3:13: "But according to his promise we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells".

Ok so this is a simplistic view of what is to come but in truth these are just elements created by God for us. The most significant change is human behavior. Ha, yup but yes it is. All corruptible things are brought about by our existing human behavior. So in a strange analogy, imagine the entirety of all humanity being saved on this planet. Now though I do not believe it is possible as then the choice to choose between a life of sin and one of righteousness would not exist. At least not to the measure it does now. Love could not be fully expressed without a love-contradiction. In a strange way good would not be so appreciated without the presence of evil, peace would not be the main objective of humanity without the existence of wars.

So the problem is our appetite for extreme selfishness to oneself. Oh we have trickery up our sleaves and try to hide our hideous selves in the shadows of darkness from others least they see who we really are. Oh imagine of we could really read each others thoughts and but even though you knew you had this ability, no one else ever knew that anyone else had that ability. Strange right. But really think about how shocked we would be to see in the secret dark places of the minds of others. Everyone able to see everyone else’s thoughts but never for a minute thinking that there own thoughts could be read. Sounds like a movie but in truth even though we cannot do this, God can and we will be invited to a heavenly CEO meeting where we will have to give an account of those hidden thoughts and behaviors.

Would Jesus Have Been Considered A Conspiracy Theorist By Todays Definition?

Let’s D-Com it:

Conspiracy Theorist:

Ok so well, we have a new look in dictionary.com and but what is interesting is that they have included the word or words you are seeking definition on in sentences. I believe that these statements are statements that were actually made; direct quotes to be more specific:

Example Sentences

Examples are provided to illustrate real-world usage of words in context. Any opinions expressed do not reflect the views of Dictionary.com.

· Making an unstable and unpredictable conspiracy theorist into a neo-maverick liberal hero because she agrees with you on one thing is risky business.

o From Slate

· This is far from the first and won’t be the last time Mr. Carlson hosts an anti-Jewish or anti-American conspiracy theorist for a supportive, promotional chat.

o From The Wall Street Journal

· Her co-accused Karen Spragg - who the prosecution called a conspiracy theorist - was cleared.

o From BBC

· Right-wing conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer went on a X tirade, warning that an “Islamic takeover of America is in full swing.”

o From Salon

Ok so wow, people say the darndest things right? Ha, but a toilet is cleaner than the words that can and are spoken out of the mouths of many of us today. But I am not the tidy-bowl man so I leave that flush for another time. Now as we go through a couple of scripture bodies look at what is being said as if you were just listening to a guy standing on the street corner, or someone in a school library speaking on these things. This whole message is revealing these days, what has, is, and will be coming and what is intended to knock you off of your God path so that you lose your faith and love for God (Luke 18:8, Matt 24:12). Ok so but before I get headlong into it, ask yourself how is it that Matthew and Luke are speaking so accurately about the leanness of the narrow path of authentically born-again believers:

Matt 7:13-14 - 13 “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. 14 Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.

Luke 13:23-24 - 23 Then one said to Him, “Lord, are there few who are saved?”

And He said to them, 24 “Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able.

Call me crazy, but many will not make it to the 4th of the seven raptures because someone called them crazy and they didn’t like it. They rather would have it that people saw and defined them as “normal”, and please don’t ask me to define what that is because Jesus already did. So because the cares of the world trumped being and acting like a real Christian, a tribulation they will go. Now we go on to what I think people use to define the craziness of Christianity:...

Vision for the timeline of God and Prophesy are determined and based in part on which rung of the ladder you are standing on. Not all believers have the same God vision as we are all in different places with Him. This is important to say because what happens is that we fall into the idea-trap that we are smarter than others without a full and complete assessment of where they are with God.

I will tell you a mystery that is usually excluded from the judgement calculation used by the rambunctious little Christian kidletts.

Matt 6:5-7 - “And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words.

There was once a guy who was challenged by a Pastor and invited to a prayer meeting. Oh the Pastor thought he might just well pray that Evangelist right under the table. Oh now come on, you know that you yourself may have been inclined to impress someone or a group at a prayer meeting in that you could, you know, pray real good prayers, and since no one waited around to see if those prayers would ever get answered, it may well have just been assumed, that the exotic prayer from you was good enough, and that there would be no way that God would overlook such an oratorical display and simply ignore such requests. Ha, but not in this prayer meeting. You see the Evangelist had a secret place prayer time in which no one was invited, and it was in such a place that he got ahold of Gods heart and would get God responses. Gods presence would show up and all the while, no one was there to see the display given in private. Oh they saw the secret-place-prayers manifest in public ministry and this is why the secret place holds all the value within your personal relationship with God.

So the Evangelist showed up last to the prayer meeting as it must have been thought that perhaps, given the Evangelist reputation, they should get a jump start you know as if this was a contest to see who knows God better. Korah and his clan along with Meriam and Arron attempted to play the same game. You can read all about it in Numbers chapter 12 and 16.

Now they were all making their usual prayer noises which is common amongst those who think God is deaf. But when the Evangelist, who by practice, brought his secret place with him, started to pray, one by one they crawled out of the “public prayer room” until know one was left but the Evangelist. Smith Wigglesworth probably knew was these game-player Pastors were up to and though it would be a good idea to use the opportunity to humble them. Whether it worked or not was not disclosed in the story but perhaps by our hearing the story it will help us.

This is just one more testimony of a financial breakthrough that God had thought of and sent to me to invoke. Now I will have to provide some background as this is a testimony journey that has sub-testimonies, and will eventually culminate into a life-changing testimony in which one could consider it a promotion from the Lord. Now do I seek to be promoted? No nor am I receiving these things from God that I might be promoted heavenward.

I am however sharing:

2 Tim 4:2 - 2 Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.

Ha, now you might say what Podcast Preacher, this doesn’t say anything about telling people the great things that God is walking them through. Oh quite contraire but it does. You see I am called to be a teacher, and well I see the word teacher in the scripture and so it is that I am teaching you how to get into the flow of receiving from God:

Ps 66:16 - Come and hear, all you who fear God, And I will declare what He has done for my soul.

How about this one. Do you think this gives me permission to tell you of the great things He IS, IS, IS doing in my life. Not will be, but is right now is doing in my life. The same that He does for me He will do for you:

1 Peter 3:15 - 15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear;

But no I could go on and on with this support. But what if I just wanted to let you know of the benefits above and beyond His wonderful Salvation that is available to you if you will receive them? Ok so let’s do an in-depth study of the word benefits in Psalms. Ha, there is just three scriptures I will refer to and then get on with the getting:

Ps 68:19 - Blessed be the Lord, Who daily loads us with benefits, The God of our salvation! Selah

Ps 103:2 - Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits:

Ps 116:12 - What shall I render to the Lord For all His benefits toward me?

So I was asked to share my medical benefits with the church because the pastors wife felt that we need to give God more glory for what He is doing in these very days. I agreed and did so. Then I was compelled to share this financial benefit to continue to prove that God is alive and well, not broke as some would try and convince you:

Acts 17:28 - 28 for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, ‘For we are also His offspring.’

What throws us Christians off in our walk in life is that we don't immediately receive the love-of-God-correction or perceive it and so we develop the nasty habit of assuming, be it intentional or from a position of ignorance, that we did the dastardly deed while God was sleeping or, what is even worse, which is nothing more than avoiding, dealing with the mold on our cheese, is that we work our excuse into the scriptures, justifying it using such words as Grace, Mercy, or or His Love that would of course ignore the sin and allow us to continue moving forward in His will all wiggly-piggly.

So I did say two things in that word run. The first is that if you did something wrong and someone who is in a mature position to bring correction approaches you as in the way the bible says we should, but even then when they do, you disregard their position, brotherly love and/or responsibility to make disciples. The second is that you stick up the place with that sin leaving it unchecked nor checking itself which could be due to a lot of reasons of which we may or may not get into. I am not 100 on where God is going to take this message or any message for that matter so here we go.

Matt 18:15-17 - 15 “Moreover if your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone. If he hears you, you have gained your brother. 16 But if he will not hear, take with you one or two more, that ‘by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.’ 17 And if he refuses to hear them, tell it to the church. But if he refuses even to hear the church, let him be to you like a heathen and a tax collector.

Now but we could just say, “ya but Podcast Preacher this is just our sanctification process and sinning is expected.” Well let’s look at all the sanctification scriptures, which is four, and see if piggin’ is allowed:

1 Cor 1:30 – But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption—

1 Thes 4:3 – 4 – For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual immorality; that each of you should know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor,

2 Thes 2:13 – But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God from the beginning chose you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth,

1 Peter 1:2 - elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, for obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.

So I have taught that we have been sanctified, are being sanctified, and will be sanctified.

So this isn’t your typical message that will make some feeble attempt to try and explain what hell will be like and why you will see nobody there if you choose to go there. It isn’t going to be like, “hey bro what’s up?” Now we can do whatever we want now that we are in this place. Nope, Bud Light isn’t going to give to a life time, oh wait, you will be there for all of eternity, so we know that no way is Bud Light going to give you a party trailer full of free beer. Nope, No confetti. No piñata, and but also and it is what makes this place absolutely fully of terrible terrors is the fact that it has no back door. One way in, your choosing to go there, and no way out….ever. No back door, no second chance, no hoping God might change His mind about how much you expressed hatred for His unending love.

And but hey now allow me to enlighten you before I get to the getting’, I was heading to this “no way Hollywood could ever come close to reproducing what hell will be like, place by choice for 34-years of my life. Then one day I realized that, not only were people really messed up with little to hope for finding someone or even an organization to provide a sustainable and lasting solution, but that I was also in unsolvable problems.

In the movie Battleship there was a line that went something like this, “It time for a new plan of action.” Yup it was definitely time for a complete overhaul. Alcohol would whisper in my ear, “everything is just fine; right as rain”, but then the next morning the same voice would whisper back and condemn me for my actions, and my body would cry out in hang over agony, not again.

When I understood that just because the devil is silent and appears, by all human accounts, to be a fable, doesn’t mean he is not behind every addiction, good or bad deed done for the wrong reasons and under the wrong motivation, doesn’t mean he doesn’t exist, but in fact was hoping, in your spiritual ignorance, that you would actually believe that he is non-existent. Ha, imagine having an enemy that hoped you would just believe that you disregarded their intents:

1 Peter 5:8 - Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

Sound like the voices you hear in the night under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or the sounds in the corridors of a miss-spent youth?

John 10:10 - 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

Every wonder who is behind stealing your stuff, dreams, or purpose? Yup no person comes up with such evil on their own, satan is back of it. Who is behind suicides and murder? Satan influencing the very people that God created who because they reject God have no protection from the influence and results of satan’s diabolical schemes. The destructor might make for a cool Hasbro superhero but this is actually a real demonic strategy and many people unknowingly have had a part of or most all of their life destroyed. Now in all these groups the spiritually ignorant, that is those who are make-believers, fake-believers, non-believers, or those who are stuck in the valley of indecision always blame other people who are also in one way or the other going through something similar because the devil loves to destroy human relationships by using those groups of people.

1 Cor 4:4 - 4 whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.

Well I am back from San Diego visiting my sister and it as usual was a great time of filling and overflowing refreshment. And so but then after getting another ten messages yet to be recorded to my near 700 still waiting to be recorded, I picked up a book titled, “The Four Horsemen Of the apocalypse the greatest warning of the next 10 years, written by Steve Cioccolanti, and feel like I should be teaching for the next 365 days 24-hrs a day. Nope, I am not saying that for dramatic effect, but because I asked God for more fire and I got it, and don’t you know that when you ask God for more fire, the fire will come and it compels you to do things outside of the natural? Look:

Jer 20:9 - Then I said, “I will not make mention of Him, Nor speak anymore in His name.” But His word was in my heart like a burning fire Shut up in my bones; I was weary of holding it back, And I could not.

Jer 23:9 - My heart within me is broken Because of the prophets; All my bones shake. I am like a drunken man, And like a man whom wine has overcome, Because of the Lord, And because of His holy words.

I have got some great messages coming up including such titles as “Friends in Hell”, “The fruit of your lips is as important as the fruit of your hands”, “LLListeners = Life Long Learners who are humble & Willing listeners”, “Crocodile Teeth”, “God's Going To Break You Or The Devils Going To Take You”, and many, many others. This is going to be a breakout year in which God is moving and the book of Revelation is being fulfilled right before the eyes that are spiritually open. Oh the other eyes, that is the natural eyes will also see it, but they wont be able to comprehend with any type of spiritual discernment what is happening. But if you stay tuned it I will do my best to equip you saints for the work of ministry, I stake my life on it, because Jesus died on a cross shaped stake Himself, and so I reciprocate because while I did not believe in Him or love anything about Him, he died for me:

Rom 5:8 - But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Ok so much blessings to you, and if you are situated near Paradise Ca please come into Paradise Arise Church on Wednesday’s 6pm to 8pm and on Sundays beginning at 10am to catch the fire life and in the person of the Holy Spirit. Remember you will Have no excuses for attending a church full of deadness and luke warmness. God already told us in Revelation 18:4, Is 52:11-12, and in 2 Cor 6:17 to come out of her.

Well, anyway it is great to be back doing what God called me to do and what I love to do. I hope you were able to get caught up on some of the past messages and but to also preach them by sending others the link to listen to them. We are all called to preach and therefore should be doing so at one level or another. There is no such thing as isolated “gifted Preachers.” Preaching is not an office gift nor reserved for the well educated or great speakers, or whatever. Just preach at your level, and in so doing you will level up.

We have been teaching at least one lesson in 64.6% of the entire planet. So at least one person on over 64.6% of the planet has heard a message on this Podcast, and it is because you are sending it out to those in whom you desire would grow in the Lord. No I am not saying that you are a hater if you don’t send them out but in my next message titled, “Friends in hell”, you will understand why it is that we do not want to miss our opportunity to spread the good news in what appears to me the time in history in which we encounter in the USA the least amount of resistance to the gospel. To my friends abroad I understand that it is not the same way in all places,

I am getting ready to visit my sister and spend sometime refreshing and growing spiritually. I leave you with a message that I came across in a little booklet titled, “I Am An Idea written by Dr Jack Hyles. But before I get into this, I would recommend you can use the next 8-days beginning Nov 4th to get caught up on some of the previous messages. You will feel right as rain I guarantee it.

I am an ideas person because God is. This is how I got a patent, created museum quality cars, and done did a bunch of other creative things.

A friend of mine shared with me about a couple of ideas that he once had had. He told me that once he had shared them with some other so called friends, after hearing their perceived wise counsel he decided not to move forward with them. The thing about listening to advice from pigs who live in the very thing you are trying to escape is that you risk actually believing them over the word of God and what He instructs you to avoid:

Matt 7:6 - “Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces.

What were his ideas podcast Preacher? He thought of bottling water before anyone else was bottling water and of all places, within the lake arrowhead region. Those wise oinkers told him he was crazy because after all what fool would buy water in a bottle when you can simply turn on your tap. The other idea was to sell bagels in a shop that just sold bagels. He also came up with this idea before one bagel shop existed in America. So, you see, if God gives you a creative idea and you decide to have a pork counseling party than you can expect the same results. This man could have been a billionaire x’s 100 with these ideas. Instead he is living nowhere close to that mark.

Oh now I know we might have listeners who will say but Podcast Preacher life is not about the money. Ah and I could with some certainty predict that you are not living your life to Gods expected full potential, and also that you are in all likelihood not a very generous person. Don’t live by the “me, myself, and I” currency. Broke is not another word for Holy, and poverty is not a spiritual gift:

Eccl 10:19 - A feast is made for laughter,
And wine makes merry;
But money answers everything.

Or

2 Cor 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.

Ok so if we grab a hold of this concept it could keep us from becoming hyper-religious like the Pharisees, Scribes, Sadducees, teachers, lawyers, and some Samaritan's in the days of Jesus. Oh, and if you think anything has changed in humanity in these days you would be mistaken.

Where do you think the Catholic Church, denominations, and non-denominational churches came from? They came from our eventual disagreements on our locked in view of the bible and what we think it states for all time as if it were a static book. Those well-entrenched logs in our eyes.

Now but this way of thinking isn't just or totally about our interpretation of the scriptures which when interpreting scripture this process is pregnant with the opportunities to create confusion, but that it actually comes from the fact that we are completely and totally blind to the scriptures all together. Lets build our case:

Micah 5:2 - “But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,
Though you are little among the thousands of Judah,
Yet out of you shall come forth to Me
The One to be Ruler in Israel,
Whose goings forth are from of old,
From everlasting.”

Location, location, location. They should have known where this spiritual King was going to come from right. Nope they missed this little detail.

More:

Is 7:14 - Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel.

Behold the Son of God will be born from a virgin woman. Who in all of earth could say such a specific thing and have it come to pass so precisely? They missed this detail as well:

More X3:

Is 53 - Who has believed our report?
And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
2 For He shall grow up before Him as a tender plant,
And as a root out of dry ground.
He has no form or comeliness;
And when we see Him,
There is no beauty that we should desire Him.
3 He is despised and rejected by men,
A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief.
And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him;
He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.

4 Surely He has borne our griefs
And carried our sorrows;
Yet we esteemed Him stricken,
Smitten by God, and afflicted.
5 But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray;
We have turned, every one, to his own way;
And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.

7 He was oppressed and He was afflicted,
Yet He opened not His mouth;
He was led as a lamb to the slaughter,
And as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
So He opened not His mouth.
8 He was taken from prison and from judgment,
And who will declare His generation?
For He was cut off from the land of the living;
For the transgressions of My people He was stricken.
9 And they made His grave with the wicked—
But with the rich at His death,
Because He had done no violence,
Nor was any deceit in His mouth.

10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise Him;
He has put Him to grief.
When You make His soul an offering for sin,
He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days,
And the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in His hand.
11 He shall see the labor of His soul, and be satisfied.
By His knowledge My righteous Servant shall justify many,
For He shall bear their ini

Welcome back to part three of a four-part series on the 7-raptures. If your noodle hasn’t been at least a little excited by the revelations contained in this series of messages then I recommend listening to them again with your bible open right up beside you.

Continue to follow this series and send the links out to any of your friends who are open to the idea.

Please be sure to listen to all four messages as this book is the most complete picture of the rapture event that I have read thus far. This message represents the light that I am moving in at this current time so if I do another message on 10-raptures you can be assured that I will support that claim with scripture leaving the decision as to whether to believe it or not in your hands.

Welcome back to part two of a four-part series on the 7-raptures. In truth the totality of these scriptures is a 100% completely supported activity which will take place. Continue to follow this series and send the links out to any of your friends who are open to the idea if they in fact currently believe they will incur a second judgement for their sins from God when to my knowledge we are only judged once. ha

Again, please be sure to listen to all four messages as this book is the most complete picture of the rapture event that I have read thus far. This message represents the light that I am moving in at this current time so if I do another message on 10-raptures you can be assured that I will support that claim with scripture leaving the decision as to whether to believe it or not in your hands.

Up front reminder to send these messages out to your friends and those in whom you might be ministering or discipling. Let’s work together as many hands make light work. We are currently in 125 countries which represent 64% of the planet. But this isn’t the whole picture. We are over 8-billion people on this planet and so the laborers of the harvest are needed, and that means you are qualified and empowered to minister to the lost. The goal I set for myself when I was a Christian just about 2-yrs in was that 3.5 billion people would hear the gospel through whatever ministry that God would give me whenever He would give it to me. No doubt He did not expect that I would work alone. Every listener is a servant of the most High God who paid a price for our sin debt that no one else could have paid to rescue us from eternal separation from hell. Nope, not trying to spook you as if you think about how great this is, you would not fear eternity but desire that He would return quickly and wrap things up. He won’t do it until there us unity in the body of believers. The 4th rapture which is the church will take place before the antichrist is revealed. Now how excited should we be to get on with things down here? The bride makes herself ready:

Rev 19:7 - Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.”

There is no sadness in that statement so let’s make ourselves and others who belong to Him ready.

Ok so I was asked a question and it went something like this:

Hey Podcast Preacher can you do a message on the end times? I was asked at the workshop that I am teaching titled, “Workshop for Equipping and Activation.” I stated to the person that I had quite a few messages on the end times, but then felt in my spirit that this person was activating me. So who is activating who ha.

So I stated I would do a message on a book that addresses the 7-Raptures. Ha, now don’t go sounding off that you believe there is no such thing. That is precisely what the devil wants you to believe. You see he appeals to your false sense of humility and your ignorance of the scriptures.

Probably the most used excuse as to why God wouldn’t remove the church, or rather to be more precise and accurate, pull His authentically born-again believers off this planet before the 7-years of tribulation is that He wouldn’t leave the non-believers without Christian help. This is proven a mistake in understanding the scriptures as the Holy Spirit will be here as well as the 144,000 Jewish evangelists. But besides that they had the chance to hear the gospel message, in fact more so today than at any other time in history, so to hold them blameless or unaccountable for that decision is taking matters into your own hands and trying to convince a God who is defined as love, that He cannot simply pass judgement upon a rebellious society. I would ask where were you when the flood waters came and took out the entire population of the world but 8-souls. Look at how Abraham was negotiation with the Lord regarding Sodom and Gomorrah. God will never be accused of not doing everything in His power to save mankind. I Have also found that many people who hold to this deception don’t do much in winning souls.

Welcome back to part four of a four-part series on the 7-raptures.

So no doubt you have learned that there have been and will be raptures. It’s not magic or escapism. It is the plan of God as He is building His kingdom for all of eternity. I hope you have paid close attention to some of the scriptures provided as if you continue in ignorance for no other reason that you are closed minded and/or are even hard-hearted then you will miss it on more than just these scriptures which as the bible states you will be unstable and unlearned. Here is just one scripture to consider how you would respond if it didn’t specifically speak of a rapture or catching away:

Luke 21:36 - 36 Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

What is it talking about if not the rapture? Ok one more:

1 Thes 5:9-10 - 9 For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, 10 who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him.

If you think you want to hang around during the wrath of God being poured out then you are in for quite a surprise. Preaching the gospel to angry non-believing hornets will be the last thing on your mind, unless you came to the conclusion that you did not need to miss the rapture but did so out of ignorance and stubbornness. If in fact you have that revelation then you will preach.

Rom 1:18 - 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,

Ok so continue to follow this series and send the links out to any of your friends who are open to the idea.

This message represents the light that I am moving in at this current time so if I do another message on 10-raptures you can be assured that I will support that claim with scripture leaving the decision as to whether to believe it or not in your hands.

So you know that I like cars and so I have come up with a car analogy to talk about something that has just occurred to me which is if I don’t explain it, it could lead to error and too much focus on the one thing that actually is to lead us to the more important thing. Let’s see if I can straighten this thing out so that it makes some sense.

Back in the day when I would be driving my 1969 VW around, sometimes the starter wouldn’t work. And if it was in between paychecks it was possible for the starter to go completely out without having any means to fix it. At 2.20 bucks an hour part time it would take some time to come up with those funds. And so but because the car was a stick shift and light I could simply get by pushing it. Now this doesn’t mean that I wasn’t strategic when looking for a parking space. Nope, shade wasn’t the primary objective, nor getting close to my destination. Downhill parking was premium for my VW.

Now although it might be necessary to push start your VW Bug, it doesn't mean that is the whole point of driving down the road right? Unless you get the starter fixed a pushing you will go. But the destination is a primary factor along with where to park.

Now this VW Bug story is the same message as is when I constantly talk about operating with miracles, signs, and wonders in your ministry. And yes this is assuming you all know that you are all called into the ministry as we all have been, at a minimum, been called into the ministry of reconciliation which is in part fulfilled by preaching the gospel in power:

2 Cor 5:18-19 - Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.

Mark 16:15-20 - 15 And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. 17 And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; 18 they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”

19 So then, after the Lord had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. 20 And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs. Amen.

The following is a little story that I took out of a book titled, “Sodom Had No Bible” written by Leonard Ravenhill.

I've read about it before in other books but since his is the last book that I saw it in I thought I would give him the credit for at least putting it in his book.

But it did spark something in me when I read it, umm and well, actually it probably wouldn't have as much have I not also been reading a book titled heavy rain written by Chris Vallotton. His book was more about how to actually be a part of a Christian Church that changes its community. He attends Bethel Church in Redding CA and that is exactly what they are trying to do. But this message is not about that book, it is about the fruit that we leave behind after we die.

I believe many of us don't think about this thing, and what we achieve in this lifetime and or set our hearts to achieve would tell us that we're really more concerned about living the best life that we can so that we are good with God, but outside of that we don't expend a lot of effort. As Kris stated in his book we tend to focus more on hell than we do on just trying to make things better while living on earth which if you've ever read your Bible and if we're walking in all those things that Jesus said we could walk in that's exactly what would happen is that we would make this a better earth.

John 15:16 - 16 You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.

If we look at the bible examples we see how James, John, Peter, Paul and Jesus as well as many others left, so far, a near 2000-year old legacy or harvest of work. Put plainerly, the preaching and other supernatural works that they did are still producing fruit well long after they stopped their work with the exception of Jesus.

Now lets look at that scripture again from that perspective:

John 15:16 - 16 You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.

The Pharisees helped Jesus preach. Oh yes we know that they thought that they knew what they were doing, but it’s what they didn’t know, that we are going to share for a minute so that if your are inclined to go out and preach the gospel and you meet up with some resistance, you will have an ace in your back pocket and be able to use the situation so that the resistors themselves preach for you.

So I get up, get my coffee, and boom message. Now I share this with you because when God turns your anointing on and releases you to go and operate in your calling and purpose, you too should expect things to work out similarly.

I seems as though I could fall down these days and get three messages on the way down and two when I hit. It is the strangest thing ever, and yet I wouldn’t want it any other way. And how do I know it is God and not just some hidden talent of communication that was released when I bumped my head or something a long time ago? Nope, communication is not my natural strength be it in writing or in speaking. In fact, everything that I am doing I am doing it in the power of Gods anointing.

There is a funny turn about that may be helpful for those of you who have yet discovered a demonic strategy to try and keep you from moving in the things of the kingdom of God.

Between Jr high and high school I got 5-D’s and 2-F’s. The courses that those grades applied were English, Government, and History. I barely graduated high school due to the 3-D’s and 2-F’s in my senior year. In my life, looking back over 63-years, it is funny to see what changes took place in that I worked in Government for 30-years, am a bible teacher and love to read about history, and have this Podcast which requires me to speak as well as write. I have also written 8-books of which will get published in the right season. Now besides the fact that this proves that our academic system is not a good measure of a persons destiny or of their strengths, this strange turn of events occurred because of one thing occurring in my life.

The devil will attach the gifts on your life, so in a strange way what you don’t seem to excel in God, once you surrender to Him, turns things around and exposes the strategies of the devil.

So poof, 4:am rolls around and my head starts thinking about some friends I know who are in a particular situation in life, and as I was thinking about the difficulties in their relationship, it suddenly dawned on me that there is a dynamic in the concept of reality of this thing we call victory and but it often results in anything but victory.

And as I pondered this new thought, I saw a parallel event, aside from my initial thoughts regarding my friend and his marriage and the difficulties he was in, in the story about God and His Son.

I saw for the first time, a pain that was greater than the pain of the cross. Oh it was a pain greater than the decimation described in the book of Isaiah, of this One Mans Spirit and soul as He became our sin and took on our curses through the merciless marring of His Spirit and soul:

Is 52:14 - Just as many were astonished at you,
So His visage was marred more than any man,
And His form more than the sons of men;

2 Cor 5:21 - For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

Gal 3:13 - 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”),

What would have happened to the man who became sin? He being perfect actually became our sin, was exposed to the satanic hoard waiting for Him in hell, as now He is touchable by the demon hordes because He is now covered in all the sins of the world. What would you imagine, if it were possible, that satan and his deminions would do to Jesus spirit and soul now that they have a legal right to touch Him?

Well, considering that let’s move on.

Let us not depart from this thought and let us look deeper at a pain that is near unimaginable. A pain greater than bearing the sins of the world. Greater than what is described in Isaiah. Oh yes a pain greater than becoming every curse relegated to mankind in payment for committing sin. Which by the way created a separation, like what an earthquake does, which may be why the earth quaked at His separation.

But because we loved our sins we could not fathom the depths of the greater pain incurred by the One in whom had created us in His image and in His likeness. A pain greater than incurring the demonic crushing of His Spirit and soul. Now yes His Spirit was in the hands of His Father, but His soul was not. It was in the teeth and fangs of satan. Now let’s look again at Isaiah given this further description:

Is 52:14 - Just as many were astonished at you, So His visage was marred more than any man, And His form more than the sons of men;

What? Yup, just another made up word from my short list of vocabulary words. Well maybe not made up but definitely D-Com has no definition for it.

What it means to me is that there is a strategy in place in these very days orchestrated by the devil and carried out by the demons to cause you to question God and everything he says or does or well maybe just one thing as a little leaven leavens the whole lump (1 Cor 5:6).

We want an example podcast preacher. Let's go to the beginning.

Gen 3:1-7 - 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.”

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.

If you think that Satan has changed his strategies, you have spent too much time on the moon. When the Catholic Church went sideways, and Martin Luther asked them for clarification on 95 points of this new doctrine that they decided to add to the scriptures, they simply got the people to question the validity of what he was asking. This in turn made it easy to inject accusations against the authentically born-again Christians resulting in about 65 to over 100 million being extinguished because they were accused as being heretics by the church. Ok I know let’s see a D-Com manifestation Podcast Preacher as we don’t even use that word in these our days -

Heretic:

1. a professed believer who maintains religious opinions contrary to those accepted by their church or rejects doctrines prescribed by that church.

Synonyms: Protestant, backslider, apostate

1. Roman Catholic Church., a baptized Roman Catholic who willfully and persistently rejects any article of faith.
2. anyone who does not conform to an established attitude, doctrine, or principle.

Synonyms: freethinker, skeptic, dissenter

Oh boy so anyone who doesn’t believe in the totality of the bible? Nope, it states believe as the church and I would say that the church of the day was as considered by all people, believers or not, as the Catholic church because well the catholic church told them that they were and if you didn’t believe them then you could believe them in the face of fear that you might be labeled as a heretic because of non-submittal. No where does it address a conflict with the bible or in Jesus.

So, because the first word is made up I could only define the second word but in doing so I am sure it will get us there:

Transparency

1. Also transparence. the quality or state of being transparent.
2. something transparent, especially a picture, design, or the like on glass or some translucent substance, made visible by light shining through from behind.

Nope, not enough depth when applied to the heart.

Transparent:

1. having the property of transmitting rays of light through its substance so that bodies situated beyond or behind can be distinctly seen.

Synonyms: crystalline, limpid, pellucid, clear

Antonyms: opaque

1. admitting the passage of light through interstices.
2. so sheer as to permit light to pass through; diaphanous.
3. easily seen through, recognized, or detected.

transparent excuses.

1. manifest; obvious.

Antonyms: secretive

1. Obsolete., shining through, as light.

Nope, not so much either. Allow me to define as per the way I think it applies specific to human behavior. And I know but there is probably a better word for it that I do not know as it applies to human behavior but I am not a word smith in the sense that I will understand word application. I just say what fits in my head and if I have to explain it, so be it.

Transillusidental Transparency simply means that you share your current reality without verbose obstruction as if you were using other words to hide the true meaning or phrases to deflect so that you retain some sort of perceived judgement protection. It’s essentially an all open, and not to draw attention to the issue or to myself, but to confirm that, although I am not in your shoes, my shoes too also have issues and this is what it is like to walk in them.

Hopefully I didn’t make that too complicated.

On with my shoes.

If anyone thinks that they can out produce God without the Holy Spirit, or if you think that you can compete with someone who does operate, rely, trust in, and depend on the Holy Spirit as it pertains to anything in life, even and but especially if you are a believer, then you have bumped your head on the corner stone of stumbling and if you are not careful to carefully examine your non-Holy Spirit experience comparing your ill-gotten beliefs to the Word of God then you stand in jeopardy of goating your way though heaven.

But Podcast Preacher my religion is not performance-based, I do not believe you can earn salvation (2 Tim 2:20, 1 Cor 3:12-15, Matt 12:36-37, Rom 14:12, John 12:48, 2 Cor 5:10, Rom 2:6, Matt 16:27, Rev 22:12, Ps. 62:12; Prov. 24:12; Jer. 17:10; 32:19; Rev. 2:23).

So Boink on you for in thinking that way, you just hit your head on the corner stone again with such a statement. Why do we come up with excuses for walking in the flesh thinking that we are supporting a spiritual position? Look my friend the Pharisees did this and went to hell. Ok so I thought I would just wake you up. Your fight is not against the sinful preacher who teaches scripturally supported lies. It is not against the false preachers, teachers, prophets, apostles, or christs (Matt 7:15, 24:11, v24, Mark 13:22, 2 Peter 2:1-18, 2 Cor 11:5, v13, Luke 6:26, 1 John 4:1). It is against the devil always so don’t think by defending your non-Holy Spirit Christian existence is in anyway protecting the sensitive flesh of any person (Eph 6:10-18). You are defending the devil when you agree with such nonsense. Did not the devil convince Eve that Gods words originally spoken to her from His own Spirit were incomplete and possibly full of deception? Yes. You could say that if there was a bible at that time that satan used it to draw Eve and Adam into sin. And what to say of satan trying to deceive Jesus by the use of scripture in the desert? Did not Paul say that we are not unaware of the devils schemes (2 Cor 2:8-11)?

Yes, that’s a bang opener right there and it is because active authentically born-again Christians need all hands on deck in today’s battle field and upon the harvest field, and more so, because we are not as focused on praying for the harvest in which, in the correct circumstances, that is when we are doing church Gods way, He is adding to the church daily those in which are being saved, we focus more on the deficit of today’s church, which as it was back in the days of Jesus and so it is today, we pray for laborers. The following scriptures support the totality of what I just stated right there as well as the battle (2 Cor 10:4, Eph 6:10-20, 2 Tim 2:3-4, Matt 9:35-38, Acts 2:41, 47, 4:4, 5:14, 9:31, John 6:44, 15:16).

I am going heavy on the scripture references so that you also see how the Holy Spirit is right in the mix of these things.

And so but, for example, if you show up to a prayer meeting which is unlikely without the Holy Spirit, and decide you are going to move heaven and earth with your non-Holy Spirit inspired prayers you might just as well stay home and watch the Emmys, because you would have to put on a performance to convince anyone that you are at the feet of Jesus without the aid for getting their, the Holy Spirit, living inside of you.

Well I decided to read the book of, no I wont go through each of them as it includes all of the New Testament books. This means I have read and submitted to the Deep Waters Podcast the entire New Testament with the exception of the book of Revelation. That is this message, the final book in the New Testament, in which John the Apostle was the personal scribe for Jesus. Oh yes John was still under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit otherwise 2 Timothy 3:16 would be incorrect, but the coolness of this is that Jesus scribed the book of Revelation through John.

I have not added any commentary or narrative nor any chapter or verse references. Because they have been liked by quite a few listeners I decided to record the entire New Testament. Now including this message you have access to the entire New Testament on my Podcast.

I do think it is a good idea because you can get the entire book in just a few minutes. Front to back without interruption. Now I say that but just reading the bible is not sufficient for learning, so God gave us teachers as well. This is however one way of getting through the books of the bible. Your spirit, new man, inner man, the Holy Spirit, and your heart depend on your getting the word down inside of you. If your Christianity is a dead work, it is because of a lack of bible reading time as well as a lack of bible doing time.

So this message is not about teaching by breaking down the Book Of Revelations but about allowing you to seek the nuggets for yourself. This message, my friends, is about listening. Listen to the words, to the sentences, hear in your very spirit what marvelous things are being said.

Now before move on listen to this little section from Revelation. No other book in the bible opens with this kind of opening. And it is of course so strange as to why todays churches do not camp in this book until each member is an expert in this book. Listen:

Rev 1:1-3 - 1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John, 2 who bore witness to the word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, to all things that he saw. 3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near.

I know right. Do you see it? No where does it say to ignore the book because it is too complex or difficult to understand. If Jesus tells us to read it, he must be prepared to also give us the revelation of it. Last thing look. He stated the time was near 2000 years ago. When I say we haven’t must time left, am I lying? No right!

We are in the last church age which is the Laodicean church age and have been for about the last 110 years. A lot of the Book of Revelation has already happened. We are nearing the end of the 2000-year-old gentile church age, in which the 1st rapture will take place shortly after the seven-year peace treaty is signed by Israel. The war to prompt that signing is taking place right now. The 1st 3 1/2 years of the tribulation which begins after the rapture will be the Antichrist continuing to set up his system and to make it public. The next 3 1/2 years of the tribulation is going to get rough because satan is going to go on a rampage. The millennial reign will begin after the rapture and tribulation and will last for 1000 years.

Hosea 6:3 – “…Let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord…”

1st Tim 5:17 - 17 Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine.

2nd Tim 2:15 - Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who doe

What, a message on Evolution be it true or false? But I don’t believe in evolution. No right but remember others that you run into might, and so you would want to know some basics, as this is not an in-depth study of the topic, to be able to walk them around to the truth. You see this Podcast has duality purposes in that it can help you to grow and develop into all that God has placed within your heart to be, and but it is also a teaching mechanism for you to use to assist others in whom you are trying to win. It’s a Sunday morning preach, a bible study, a life or cell group message. You see that’s the beauty of having access to a teacher who has been given a teaching gift who is anointed and called to be a teacher. I am gifted by God just like each and everyone of you. We together function as the body of Christ at large.

Think about what we could do for Christ with agreement, unity, being of one mind, in one accord. These traits make the mightiest militaries on the planet. We have yet to see the fullness of what the church could be and in these very days the opportunities for the church to prove what she could be, what she was intended to be, will be present everywhere. Are you ready? The devil will be turning this world upside down and the majority of people will not have any idea as to what is happening. The level of fear will allow the antichrist to have his way. We, you we, no but yes you and I are the only ones standing in the antichrists way to thwart his plans of complete and total destruction, through their own submission, of the entire human race that is unprepared for these days. We are the lifeline to a very lost group of people. You have the answer to eternal life, yes you are the answer to eternal life. Do not stand to be ashamed at your meeting with Christ as He examines what you have done for the kingdom of God and for Him and Father God. They have invested everything in you and given you all the power to move heaven and earth to accomplish that end. Leave nothing on the table. Leave no sick behind, no diseased person in your wake, leave a branch that will bear fruit long after you go home.

Ok so we can thank God for His encouragement.

Ok so this is a shorty revelatory nugget. Kind of like eating a small bag of Moose Munchy snacks. The bag used to be, when I was all about sugar but thanks be to God I have been set free from sugar, alcohol, cigars, these are sugarless, beer, and most all foods that contain sugar or turn into sugar in your body.

Ah but you see how I start to go in one direction and then pow God says speak a bit on that for a minute. Ok so let’s go to the stats.

Google A.I. states in a couple of articles the following:

Nearly 1 in 3 adults (30.7%) are overweight. More than 2 in 5 adults (42.4%) have obesity. About 1 in 11 adults (9.2%) have severe obesity.

Continuation of these trends would see overweight and obesity prevalence among adults (age-standardized to allow comparisons between states and over time) rise from an estimated 75.9% in 2021 to around 81.1% for men and from 72.6% to 82.1% for women.

And in another:

Almost three-quarters of the adult population (172 million adults aged 25 or older) in the USA were estimated to be living with overweight or obesity in 2021. The prevalence of obesity rose especially rapidly, doubling between 1990 and 2021 in both adult men (from 18.6% to 41.5%) and women (from 22.8% to 45.6%; see table in Notes to Editors)

The estimated prevalence of adult overweight and obesity was high across all states in 2021. In men, levels ranged from 80.6% in North Dakota to 65.3% in Washington DC; while in women, levels ranged from 79.9% in Mississippi to 63.7% in Hawaii (see figures 1C and D in paper.)

And in one more:

Institute for Health Metrics & Evaluation states:

Continuation of these trends would see overweight and obesity prevalence among adults (age-standardized to allow comparisons between states and over time) rise from an estimated 75.9% in 2021 to around 81.1% for men and from 72.6% to 82.1% for women. This would mean an estimated 41.4 million additional adults living with overweight or obesity by 2050 (raising the total to 213 million, of whom 146 million will have obesity).

Concerningly, the prevalence of obesity is projected to increase at a more rapid rate than overweight, and faster among adult men than women. Between 2021 and 2050, the highest rise in obesity prevalence among men is expected in Colorado (up 44.2%) and New Mexico (up 41.2%), and among adult women in Kansas and Colorado (both up 34.9%).

So, before I get into the why I am getting into this message I thought I would open it up with a simile comparing iron swords with steel swords one to another. At large they look the same to most people and but it isn’t until you need to put them to use that you discover that the iron sword is of a way lesser quality and durability than the steel sword so if you ever used an iron sword in battle against one who yielded a steel sword, your weapon would be insufficient for the victory and you would suffer loss. Keep this story in mind comparatively speaking as we discuss the wide variety of bibles and some, oh so very few of the changes that they have gone through ever since we had a supposed lock on the word of God being that it was considered at one point in time to be the infallible Word of God inspired by the Holy Spirit written through men in which some actually saw and walked with Jesus Himself. And since God cannot lie even if by chance or by the ignorance of mankind including some things which are just off of the nature of God. More on this in the message.

Consider, for this message that the King James or New King James Version represents the steel sword and many of the rest, perhaps not all, but many of the rest represent an iron sword. Hopefully, by the time we get to the end of this messages you will have discovered why I said this.

Ok so before I get into this you should stay with the entire message as this is hot of the revelation presses, meaning that I tripped over it in my studies. As you know this is the year of study for me beginning February 2025 and ending end of January 2026. Over 500 books and still plugging at it. Please don’t be impressed as it is God who anoints us for His work. I only tell you as a teacher what it looks like in the event you are called to teach. Before I was saved I was not a reader of any quality books. After I got saved boom the strange appetite hit me and nearly 30-yrs later I am heading into 2000 books. None of this matters other than I am doing what I have been given to do. If I was called to be a Ninja fighter I would have been given the anointing to be that. I would practice 16-hrs daily to develop the craft so that I could win to God other Ninja fighters. Ha so it’s a funny example but that is how the anointing works. If you want to test it, you can simply try and read. The caveat is that you cannot be called to be a teacher. Oh we all as believers should read but you will not be reading like I am reading unless you have been called to the same position. And no doubt others have surpassed the number of books that I have read yearly. Charlie Kirk averaged around 100 books yearly and his life reflected it.

This could also be titled, “Christianity In A Nutshell.” And well but I did think about changing the title considering the content, but then I thought no it really is more about guarding yourself. And but the way to do that is to be sure you are busily active in your Christianity as per Gods will both using your God-given talents, personality, and the spiritual gifts and if called to be in them, getting equipped for a spiritual office.

Now for some good news and some great news. It is good for my listener who may from time to time get a message that I am teaching on Sunday’s or Wednesday’s at Arise Paradise. If you are a consistent listener then you know that I just thru in some new information which is that I am now doing an “Equipping & Activation Workshop” at my new church in Paradise California. I have just taught one class so far and we cruzed through 3-hrs of awesome teaching guided and anointed by the Holy Spirit. We are ever so intentional about doing church Gods way in which we will be primarily focused, at least in this season of equipping the saints for the work of ministry.

Now so why is it great news for others Podcast Preacher? Because for those who live locally they can attend live and in person. Yup, I know it sounds like I am full of myself in thinking anyone should be listening to me at all and but will extremely benefit if they do. Pride? Ego? Fame? Nope, without the holy Spirit I would that I would be dead as dirt. Ken Shelton has nothing to add to your lives without the anointing of God, and if He doesn’t show up when I am speaking you have my permission to ask me to sit down and be quiet until He gets in the room. In fact you are spiritually obligated to do so. My confidence comes in the fact that God has chosen to use me. Rejected by almost all in whom I have known be it in school, family, churches, business, I have had to overcome the fact that for more than 30-years I was a worthless individual and that maybe all these knuckle-heads were right.

Oh I thank my God that He is above His reckless humanity so bent on taking the short train to hell all the while mocking Him as if they actually knew what they were doing.

Well I decided to read the book of Ephesians, James, Colossians, 1st & 2nd Thessalonians, 1st & 2nd Peter, 1st & 2nd Timothy, the books of 1st, 2nd, & 3rd John, & Titus, Philemon, And Jude. Like 1st, 2nd, & 3rd John they are in a single message, the book of Galatians, Philippians, 1st and 2nd Corinthians, Hebrews, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, and Acts.

I have not added any commentary or narrative nor any chapter or verse references. Because they have been liked by quite a few listeners I thought I would try to do more of them with the remaining New Testament books of the bible. This way you have access to the entire New Testament on my Podcast.

I do think it is a good idea because you can get the entire book in just a few minutes. Front to back without interruption. Now I say that but just reading the bible is not sufficient for learning, so God gave us teachers as well. This is however one way of getting through the books of the bible. Your spirit, new man, inner man, the Holy Spirit, and your heart depend on your getting the word down inside of you. If your Christianity is a dead work, it is because of a lack of bible reading time as well as a lack of bible doing time.

So this message is not about teaching by breaking down the Book Of Romans, but about allowing you to seek the nuggets for yourself. This message my friends is about listening. Listen to the words, to the sentences, hear in your very spirit what marvelous things are being said.

The book of Romans is written to believers.

Hosea 6:3 – “…Let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord…”

1st Tim 5:17 - 17 Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine.

2nd Tim 2:15 - Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Well, get your notepad ready and get ready to be astounded at what you are about to hear.

Every once in a while I like to present something a little less chatted about in our Christian world. I usually don’t shy away from a topic because it may come across as controversial or even divisive. I am not at all ever intended any bible topic to divide other than to identify the make believers, fake believers, non-believers, and those who are undecided from the UTHENTIC children of God. The word is described as a sword and if you ever did find the compunction to play with one you may find that it is in the business of dividing:

Eph 6:17 - And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;

Heb 4:12 - 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.

The preacher is not the one who should be dividing but simply allowing the word, the sword to do its intended work least they be found to be the one who is intentionally dividing:

Pro 6:16-19 - These six things the Lord hates,
Yes, seven are an abomination to Him:
17 A proud look,
A lying tongue,
Hands that shed innocent blood,
18 A heart that devises wicked plans,
Feet that are swift in running to evil,
19 A false witness who speaks lies,
And one who sows discord among brethren.

I know this is Christian to Christian, and but so how much more ought we not offend the other groups without a cause? We know the word states that in as much as possible get along with all people (Rom 12:18):

Heb 12:14 - 14 Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord:

How do we as the body of Christ handle someone who is bent on division:

Titus 3:10 - Reject a divisive man after the first and second admonition,

So now but if they get offended at the word, then your hands are washed of any guilt. If they are open then the word has done its intended work, but if they harden their hearts then the word has still done its work because they are now exposed for where they stand.

Ok so I thought I would let you know that I have been attending a church for about a month or so and feel like it is where God is calling me. You can Read 1 Cor chapter 12 to see some church building architectural drawings. Specifically, as I want to just pull-out verses 18 & 24, we can just look at what I use to determine which church I attend, a process I have used for nearly 30-years as a Christian:

1 Cor 12:18 – 18 But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleased.

1 Cor 12:24 - 24…But God composed the body…

Other determining factors is if the church is doing things Gods way or their denominational/non-denominational way. This church is and is willing to do so until revival breaks out. Oh, I know we have many asking God for revival but secretly they want Him to do revival their way in their style of church. Didn’t the Pharisees want nothing more from Jesus than for Him to express Himself in the way that they thought that He should. It was preposterous to them that if He were really God that He wouldn’t want to do things without so much disruption. Ha, oh boy he himself said:

Matt 10:34 - “Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword.

I have always had it in my mind that I would find a church that would want revival above all things. But oh, no, no this is not the case. Well, that is until now. I know we have some churches that are rockin it with God and thank Him that they are, but I needed something within my own town to do or to at least desire it. Arise Paradise is such a place that I believe we will see a great move of God and in fact we already have.

Let’s touch on the revival element for a minute so that you understand my understanding of what it is and why it is so desired though many ask, few are willing to pay the price.

Revivals and great awakenings, in my biblically supported opinion, represent the normal flow of the book of Acts church most often carried out by normal Christians who discovered what it is to serve God with all their heart, strength, soul, and mind.

The end of past revivals and awakenings events occur simply because of the absence of the unity of those within the events, and but also because of the neglect of equipping the saints for the work of ministry and making disciples. And well even the preposterous action of firing the Holy Spirit asking that he say in the lobby and expressing to Him in our secret places that we will take things from here. The result is that the end of what should be normal Christianity, the revival or awakening comes, and we once again find ourselves in need of the very things that made us spiritually normal.

Ok so I took this message from the book titled, “Ministry Of The Spirit” written by A. J. Gordon in 1894. The chapter is the title of this message. It is an outstanding book about the totality of the function and purpose of the Holy Spirit. I did however find that this particular chapter really spoke to me and so I wanted to share it with you. In this season of researching I have been looking at a lot of books that speak on the Holy Spirit since He is so very neglected in todays church. Oh what a gentleman and if we knew how little it took to quelch his activity well I suppose we may well just decide to stop doing those things since He is the power representation of God in the earthly ambassadors, lords, priests, and kings. Without…wait lets hear it from the mouth of the King of kings:

John 15:5 - “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.

And well as you already know without Jesus and the Holy Spirit you have no religion that will get you to heaven. It’s nothing more than a fake insurance policy.

Well before I get too far into another message let’s be blessed and commune with the Holy Spirit.

Ha, so this message is not going to be as funny as the title comes off to be. And well if you didn't think it funny then you may well be ahead of the game.

So these days and the condition of His beloved church is gnawing at the very marrow of my bones. Oh, and it's not because I dwell in the secret place getting free-for-all Godly whispers, because I have discovered some secret way into His heart. Nope, In the one hand I have this “Keeping-Me-Awake-At-Nights” concern of our today's Church condition. And no I am not at this moment talking about the Catholic Church or the denominational church or the non-denominational church specifically as I have many messages on those specific things. Nope I am talking about the condition of its individual parts that make up the whole. I am talking about why those churches are in the condition that they are in and not from an enterprise level, that is a high up view level, but right down to each and every one of us. The churches are a mess because we are a mess, and this message will show how that is possible.

Now on the flip side of the hand, is my personal concern regarding the all too much activity of the flesh me, the old man, the one that is supposed to be crucified with Christ (Gal 2:20), and how by continuing to feed it, be it in ignorance or on purpose, and it feeds fatly, by the way, on excuses as to why we cannot or do not choose to feed the new man, and its resulting effects on the growth of my new man spiritual humanity (Eph 4:17 – 5:33). Yup , I just threw myself into this party you see. It’s not a me to you message as it is a He to us message.

Half the time I am using the sword of God to equip the saints for the work of ministry and at other times I want to fall on it least I sin again. And oh no I am not sin free nearly as much I want or desire to be. And let's avoid the spiritual cliches' that would try and lift off my coffin of concerns about my spiritual conditions, as I no doubt believe that, if this Christianity today is a tough road to hoe for myself, then it too must be for you my listeners as well, especially if you too lose sleep over the condition of the church and it’s unnatural effectiveness to be almost ineffective.

Ok, so nuff bout me. Let's get to the love portion of this message, and hey it is all in love in spite of its opening.

So how do I develop this message that is considered to be such as strong word? Ha, now don't feel compelled to answer that question as I already would have received the answer hence this message. You can tell, just to give you some insider information on the type of message, that when the message opens up with some light humor, it might going to be a tough one. Not grammatically correct but most no doubt effective.

Hosea 6:3 – “…Let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord…”

1st Tim 5:17 - 17 Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine.

In the main scripture of which you will discover as we move through this message, I changed the word He to we without at all changing the meaning or intent of the scripture.

Let’s foundationalize this message:

John 14:12-14 - 12 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. 13 And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask anything in My name, I will do it.

Now this is a big instruction from Jesus. He is telling us that we in essence will be Him on earth doing the same things, that is healing, casting out demons, giving words of knowledge, using wisdom, you know all of the Holy Spirit gifts as well as many more, that we would continue His program of salvation as well, and get this because it is the heart of this message, and that we would do greater works than these. Now I am not a Greek or Hebrew scholar, well in fact I am not a scholar in most everything so I guess that shouldn’t by now be a big surprise, but greater does not mean continuing on with the same program that Jesus did. Look at what He says just before He introduces the Greater statement, “the works that I do he will do also.” You see He already said we would be doing, should be doing, each and every one of us should be doing, ha, no but many Christians will have been found to have accepted the job of salvation having never showed up for work. And yes if that bothers you that I said that then respond to the Holy Spirit and clock in. The few Christians running for God need your help. Ok so anyway, we see that He swept the normal tasks out in front of us and then added, greater works than these we will do.” Notice the words, “than these” meaning healing, preaching, teaching, miracles, signs, and wonders, casting out demons, yes and all of the other things that Jesus did. And but now why would I go to such great lengths to be sure you understand the difference between what the bibles tells us that Jesus did, and the additional “greater works than these” statement? Because I have read and heard that the real meaning of this is that because there are more of us than of Jesus, the greater simply means volume of work. Of course right? I mean if 1000 Christians are doing the normal work of Jesus, that is going to produce more than He and even the 120 who were in the upper room would have produced. Now don’t ask me if we in todays church are actually doing that, but that is what some people believe and I would not disagree with them. But. I know right? There has to be a but in this because what they are stating is what we call the obvious. Considering all things equal, two people would or should out perform one. So but Jesus went beyond elementary math and added, ” greater works than these we will do.” Not more as it would be obvious to any elementary baby Christian and maybe in this one time Jesus trusted us to actually get that basic concept. Again for the mathematically challenged, of which I am, two people should outperform one.

So this message is going to tale a look at some unique things that happened back in the day. Why? Because I think we have yet to see the great works in our days. Listen to this:

Matt 24:24 - For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.

So I was reading a book and decided to share its contents as it is really a book that inspired me to think about how many of us still don’t get it. Now I am addressing the ignorant Christian, and I don’t mean that meanly but simply that you have been taught a specific way and just haven’t been motivated to ensure that what you have been taught is accurate. How many Christians will end up in hell because they simply didn’t make their salvation sure? I think one is way too many and I cringe at the thought that we lose people every day on this planet who, if it were possible after you die to be shocked at anything, would be shocked that they were standing in the goat line. And ain’t no goats gettin’ into heaven.

So but now I am also addressing the one-foot-inner’s-and-the-one-foot-outers. These are those who could be swayed or convinced if they just had the truth set before them. In the world when men use words no one understands we all shake our heads as if we understood but worse of all we think that they are really something set apart from the rest of humanity. I have stared to read some books and could not continue because the author really wrote the book for themselves and to feed their ego and not to feed my mind or heart. Yes, some people write using the communication methods to do nothing more than boast about who they think that they are. And do they trap people and win ignorant people to their cause which is usually self exaltation? Yes, same, same as satan. You can be sure that their boss is not God.

Bu so anyway the last group that I was thinking about when I was reading this book was the unbeliever. Not the angry individual that is fighting against the idea of God, they must break through the spiritual battle that they are in after all no one can serve two masters i.e. God and satan. It is one or the other and satan will not let you go willy-nilly. Nope, this last group has really never heard a clean version of the gospel or they haven’t heard about it at all. And unfortunately this truth is truer more today than ever before. Funny how we Christians think that the gospel will be preached throughout the whole earth without our assistance. Oh don’t get me started as that is for another message. Nope again this is for those stuck in the valley of indecision but want an answer that is real and that can bring a real change to their circumstances.

The title of the book is, “The New Birth’ and it was written by Kenneth E. Hagin. I would recommend reading any of his books which come to near over 100 or more to get some real help in your faith walk. His son is also a good writer who also writes some very helpful books.

Ok so I would like to welcome my guest speaker today on this podcast Dwight L Moody. Ha, but no he couldn’t be talked back from heaven to preach another sermon for any amount of money. Now but so I can because I read his book titled, “Thou Fool & 11-Other Sermons written by him in 1911. This message is one of those sermons. I would but if I didn’t have so many of my own messages to get to, teach on all of them as he has a wonderful spirit of Evangelism on him and oh could he get believers rescued from hell.

I chose this chapter because it is a crisis within todays church which is solvable by more of us choosing to do our religion in the power of the Holy Ghost. Way too many of us have grown up believing that the Holy Ghost is for those more spiritual than us. I would say, that they are more spiritual, or even we could say more effective by way of being more productive than you are, because they indeed do have the Holy Spirit. Now you could have also been taught this lie by your church denomination. Yes, the rumor started with just one guy and he convinced entire denominations to buy into the lie. And look, everyday it is proven by the few who are working in miracles, signs, and wonders that he was lying. So, if you didn’t believe in miracles, signs, and wonders, and yet you saw them happening, why would you remain in unbelief? Just like satan did to Eve and tried to do with Jesus, he simply supported his lies using scriptures out of context or in part and not in totality. Oh, this is why we need to read our bibles and say ever so close to God and the Holy Spirit.

What is this? A modern message about technology that just came out. Yup, and but keep in mind as a believer your spiritual ears and eyes have been open so you now can understand those things kept from those who are still wresting with the whole God thing:

Matt 13:11 - He answered and said to them, “Because it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.

So I came across a trigger article, that is something I read and then I see a message all over it, and boom a picture of how things are going to get really messed up insofar as our current technology that we are currently using.

I am not trying to sound like a conspiracy theorist but I think that this message may come across like one. The idea is not to take action and throw all of your technology away. Besides if satan, and in spite of mankind looking as though we came up with this idea for computers, you would be mistaken. You see for everything that we come up with that initially looks like it will help to improve mankind’s circumstances, the devil corrupts it in some way so that it can also be used as a weapon in his hands:

Is 54:17 - No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the Lord.

You want an example, we have millions in the medical field, and no I am not picking on them just because I believe that all Christians can walk their entire Christian life healed of all and every sickness and disease, nope, I am just providing and example. So a person goes in to get treated for cancer but the treatment can cause death. Look:

John 10:10 - The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

1 Peter 5:8 - Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

Well I decided to read the book of Ephesians, James, Colossians, 1st & 2nd Thessalonians, 1st & 2nd Peter, 1st & 2nd Timothy, the books of 1st, 2nd, & 3rd John, & Titus, Philemon, And Jude. Like 1st, 2nd, & 3rd John they are in a single message, the book of Galatians, Philippians, 1st and 2nd Corinthians, Hebrews, Matthew, Mark, and Luke.

I have not added any commentary or narrative nor any chapter or verse references. Because they have been liked by quite a few listeners I thought I would try to do more of them with the remaining New Testament books of the bible. This way you have access to the entire New Testament on my Podcast.

I do think it is a good idea because you can get the entire book in just a few minutes. Front to back without interruption. Now I say that but just reading the bible is not sufficient for learning, so God gave us teachers as well. Your spirit, new man, inner man, the Holy Spirit, and your heart depend on your getting the word down inside of you. If your Christianity is a dead work, it is because of a lack of bible reading time as well as a lack of bible doing time.

So this message is not about teaching by breaking down the Book Of John, but about allowing you to seek the nuggets for yourself. This message my friends is about listening. Listen to the words, to the sentences, hear in your very spirit what marvelous things are being said.

Now this message will be longer than you might be used to. The goal and purpose of recording each book in its entirety is to give you the uninterrupted, not even by chapter and verses, story.

Now a little chit-chat about the book of John. This is the fourth of four gospels, although some believe that the book of Acts could also be considered a gospel. Neither weether, it doesn’t matter. What matters is that reading and knowing the gospels alone will not lead you to being a solid Christian. Read or listen to, and do, is the only method which works. I say this as kindly as possible, do not leave it up to your church to equip you to be the Christian you need to be. We are or were when we were unsaved, prone to live life blaming others for our station in life. We liked to hold others accountable for making sure we had everything we desired. Ha, and even as saved beings we can still fall into that error.

In a new marriage no one should have to encourage you to spend time with your new husband or wife, if so then you shouldn’t marry or won’t be married long. Same, same with Jesus. No one should have to tell you to spend time with your new Spiritual Groom (Ephesians 5:25-27, Revelation 19:7-9). If anyone has to tell you to do so, then you are probably not ready to commit to Him and should but beg to be ready soon. im

In addition, the book of John is distinct from the other similar gospels in that he had a unique relationship to God. He had revelation about God that the others didn’t have. You will also see that he is the same one who wrote the book of Revelation. He is also the only one of the original Apostles that wasn’t murdered, although there was attempts to do so such as boiling him in a vat of oil.

Hosea 6:3 – “…Let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord…

”1st Tim 5:17 - 17 Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine.

2nd Tim 2:15 - Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Oh boy, yes at one point in time we were all definitely willing to go to hell. That my friends is a gamble because we are not assured of life longevity and we could have died before we had the opportunity to say yes to Jesus. Millions have gambled with the salvation message thinking that they would simple do a death-bed conversion you know so that they can sin up to their necks just before going to heaven. Ha, like it’s a step down to go to heaven compared to the pig-swamp we live in down here. And but yes, this could have been any one of my listeners as was such as I was. Now that’s podcast Preachin’ right there.

I waited for 34-yrs escaping death at least 4X’s before finally opening my eyes and seeing that this world is not what so many think it is. Oh I know there are at least three different versions of the story.

The first is that it is as I see it the way that it is which is why I gave up on relying on it to bring lasting peace, security, freedom from the fear of death, knowledge deep enough to explain away the horrid things people do to each other, and stuff like that. As it is – that’s one version.

The other is to believe, because we don’t want to believe my version, so we believe that it is not really that bad, and we think this not looking into the closets that hold the history of atrocities that we have done to each other in the name of everything that is evil. Oh I mean in the name of whatever we relabel evil so that we do not have to see things as they are but what we would imagine that they would be. Yup, this is the old me and I believed in that earth-narrative for 34-years of my life. I contrast it to someone who is standing on the autobahn hoping that the cars will never hit them. as that person standing on the freeway is of course gambling with their false belief that because they are human the drivers will never run into them, and if they did it would be an accident so no harm no foul, except that you are now standing in hell, both you and your false reality of a story that unfortunately you let guide you into hell. So this version sees the world through a glass dimly lit hoping that as time marches on things will get better.

Ok so we have the “as is” version, the “things are or will get better version” and now on to the third version.

The third version is a funny group in that they may have the most accurate vision of all of the people in both the other groups, assuming none in either group has gotten saved yet. Because, and I am explaining so you don’t have to wonder why I said what I said, which is that once saved your spiritual eyes and ears are open and well hang on because you have now entered reality and truth, something which could not have been seen by anyone in any of the groups unless you tired of the dead promises and hopes that the devil pins on your lapels.

Ok so all who listen to this message will be listening to the 600 message that the Podcast Preacher has rolled out by the calling, commission, purposes, anointing, and power of God. Ha, I said it lake that because I want you to know that without God I should but be dead and well deserving of it. My life was absent of anything God for 34-years and if that doesn’t prove Gods patience towards us I am not sure what does. I do think what if God just said one day, “well that’s it, I must remove him from the earth before he does some real damage?” Hell! All day long and without escape I would have gone to the place that so few these days seem so unconcerned with. I tremble at the thought that I would have died by my own drunkenness or debauchery and have simple woke up or appeared in front of Jesus with no excuse for rejecting Him. None.

This is the stuff that all nightmares should be made up of, not that you should have nightmares, but that where you spend eternity ought to concern you more than anything else on this earth. Yes we only get to visit this planet for about 70-years. Yup, we are camping on this earth for about 70-years and the campground has some rules and if followed then we go to heaven and get to live in a new campground which is so nice that it is called Paradise. A new earth. But if we follow the rules of the earth that most all people follow, living to consume all and to experience any and all pleasure without remorse or what they believe, without consequences. Hey why do people say that they do not believe in God? Same reason I didn’t want to believe. Because if He did exist, and down in my child person I did in fact believe it, it was the bent adults that convinced me otherwise, and is this not the precise thing that happens to all kids? Yes, but so if I believed as a sinning adult then it would be true that my sins would deliver me to hell forever. Ya let that echo in your ears…forever. Not for 70-years. Nope, for 70 X infinity X infinity. Why do we not have a realistic view of the consequences of our sins? Well besides instant gratification and the fact that when we were born we were satan’s children, so like father like son and I say this not to the exclusion of the daughters.

So the message will deal with the fringes of why we ignore the obvious, but before we cut into it, sit down as a believer and be sure you are an active, not passive, but active Christian. Yes some of us are busy trying to improve our camping conditions, but it is for not. In some strange way trying to preserve the old campsite is like applying the solution of which we have which is to build dams to store water and to prevent floods while at the same time destroying migratory fishing lanes or displacing 100’s of old towns that will now be under water. This is a minor example of how things just work in this old campground. Same, same when you go to a doctor for surgery right? They cause a minor injury, we hope, so as to deal with a major injury or life-threatening disease. In the case of cancer they take a human near to death to try and kill the thing that will in most cases do it anyway.

This is a message about being careful as a Christian to never think that you can never go sideways no matter how strong you run for the Lord. Oh how we want to stop those who are not with us even though they might be doing the same thing. Think about all of the unnecessary church splits had they just listened to this Podcast. Ha, but no really why do we want to sick our fire-breathing dragon on those in whom we are actually supposed to be winning in love by the power of the Holy Spirit. I mean if this was really the way Jesus intended the gospel be preached then we can wrap up this whole evangelizing the world thing and get Him to return but right this very week. And but you can also see why we, when we have this attitude towards others that our prayers are not answered. Ah but now we are talking about another message.

First I will prove this is possible even if you are walking with God on this earth so closely that you can smell Him, not that He stinks or anything but well you know what I mean. Then we move to how we can be more effective.

So the first scripture that I will be using is talking to a group of Christians who believe that they are in Gods perfect will, in part, or for the most part, because they are operating in miracles, signs, and wonders. This is for sure a heavenly crowd thinner of which I have to believe that they in their lifetime had the chance to course-correct but refused because they could do the God magic:

Matt 7:21-23 - 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!’

This message is from the book titled, “Evangelistic Talks by Gipsy Smith. Each chapter represents messages that he was giving every morning during a revival. The book was written in 1922 so there is no doubt he was influenced by the Welsh revival and the Azusa Street Revival. And but I dare to say that if he had kept quiet though influenced and impacted by these great moves of God he would have been filled with the same remorse as Peter was in his denying Jesus.

I will be doing several chapters from this book as Gipsy was very evangelistic and so his messages were always down to the brass tacks of salvation. Yes he operated in the office of an evangelist as discussed in Eph chapter 4, in other words he did his part and as each of us does our part in completing the mission of Jesus He, that is Jesus will return.

The bible states the following about His Word:

Is 55:11 - So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.

What this means is that I can teach on a message that was preached 5000 years ago and it will still have the power to transform those who can see and hear the things of God. And now but if this wasn’t true then we are in trouble to seek anything from the bible which is confoundedly both the oldest book as well as the newest book to have ever to have existed. Old because is whispers of a few of the creation events more precisely than all of the science that has ever existed, and new because it tells us of the end of all that was created under the old Adam world and speaks to us of a new heaven and a new earth. No science or A. I. can ever be so accurately predictive.

All of that to say don’t worry about the age of the books that I speak on as God never can lie:

Matt 24:35 - Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.

Ok so we kind of know the story as to why Moses and Aaron didn’t make it into the promise land, and I tell you right out the gate that it wasn’t so much the mistake made as it was about the time that they had built up relationship with God that determined the punishment. And but we see for example that King David committed a way more grievous error or sin and was left in his kingly position. Oh I know he paid for the sin, but he didn’t loose the promise of God which is that he would be the king over His people. Moses lost Gods promise to enter the promise land for what would appear to be way less of an infraction than that of King David.

So obviously we are left to ask the question which should always be followed up with seeking the answer in both prayer and in searching the scriptures. Did God leave us an easter egg regarding this rock event. Oh but did you see what I did right there? Ha, we should first review the infraction so that we can unfold this old mystery:

Lev 22:31-32 -31 “Therefore you shall keep My commandments, and perform them: I am the Lord. 32 You shall not profane My holy name, but I will be hallowed among the children of Israel. I am the Lord who sanctifies you,

Ok clear enough right? You shall not profane my name but I will be hallowed among the children of Israel. There is that which we call a commandment for Moses. Now lets see how he was obedient the first time the rock event came up:

Exodus 17:1–7 - 17 Then all the congregation of the children of Israel set out on their journey from the Wilderness of Sin, according to the commandment of the Lord, and camped in Rephidim; but there was no water for the people to drink. 2 Therefore the people contended with Moses, and said, “Give us water, that we may drink.”

So Moses said to them, “Why do you contend with me? Why do you tempt the Lord?”

3 And the people thirsted there for water, and the people complained against Moses, and said, “Why is it you have brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our livestock with thirst?”

4 So Moses cried out to the Lord, saying, “What shall I do with this people? They are almost ready to stone me!”

5 And the Lord said to Moses, “Go on before the people, and take with you some of the elders of Israel. Also take in your hand your rod with which you struck the river, and go. 6 Behold, I will stand before you there on the rock in Horeb; and you shall strike the rock, and water will come out of it, that the people may drink.”

And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel. 7 So he called the name of the place Massah and Meribah, because of the contention of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the Lord, saying, “Is the Lord among us or not?”

Now this message is a continuation of the message titled, “The Great Day Of The Lord by Gordon Lindsay.” That message included the first four trumpets and all of what comes with there tooting. But now in the final three trumpets tooting is the least of our problems. In this very near season my friends, yes let me say it again, in this very near season things get so bad that God calls them woes. And if you want to know how bad it gets during a God woe…don’t want to know it. Yes that is a twisty turvy statement. But all that it is really saying is that you do not want to know what it looks like to go through a God woe. And now so because I hear this comment, or maybe it would be stated more accurately as an excuse or copout. I really never did fully understand where that word copout derived and no I will not look it up. But see this is why there is no way out of a God woe even if you die before it arrives. Hell, for the sake of argument and escapism theory, is infinitely worse.

Ok so it is here before we get to the story that we must clarify something. God has made a way for everyone who has ever been born to get saved and to believe in and hope upon a future absent of everything that is known and unknown to be wrong with this world. Yes absent from the new heaven and the new earth. And for whatever reasons, and there are many including an epidemic of really short-sightedness, that humans, in the living-in-totally-corupted-bodies-of-this-short-period-of-Gods-plan-life, have chosen the lesser, that is about 70-years of living, and I am speaking not of the humans who got near a thousand years of living as length of days seems not to cure short-sightedness even if it is more long-sightedness than other humans. Ok so but back to why I stated that, which is that we somehow misplace the value of short term pleasure, even if it is corrupted, and woe it is even more than most will ever know, as remember we are short-sighted, and do not consider the value of living forever with God outside of hell, and I think that I should have added that, so that you understand the value of heaven and can more appreciate the value of the life of Jesus given so that you do not have to go there. Why if we are so smart, educated, enlightened, agreeable, free, whatever you may want to call what we are today, so wandering away from the only thing that in all of human history has proven to be extremely and extraordinarily accurate and spot on. The bible and it resulting and inevitable resulting in Christianity, which more than some religious connotation, simply means Christ in me, is infallible, was infallible, and forever will be infallible.

Ok so before I get into another message within this message, lets address the “what happens” when we disregard, against all knowledge and false wisdom that has ever existed, the truth of the only matter that has ever existed and is supported by all evidence that exists in science, yes even false religions, and any anything else that as we are imprisoned in our own deception, be it from anything that comes from self or the devil, which is that when we enter the final three woes, and don’t forget as an unbeliever who out-and-out rejected Jesus offer of escaping all of these things, that the significance of these events is that the offer of salvation has passed. This means that no matter how much you become terrified of the prevailing events which is to bring this world as we know it to a final end, and oh if we could even imagine what that will be like then surely we would accept the offer even if out of fear of these events, and no worries you can get saved as you eventually will see that as you read the bible that it has always been true, the end will come.

So I like to keep you guys of my growth process so that you always keep your eyes on Jesus and what the bible says. Spiritual position does not follow the same rules as a natural position. For example, if you are the President of a company or of the United States we in our naturalness think that you are above others who may sweep floors for a living. Or we think and this is really so awful considering how heathenistic they are, that famous musical artists or actors are above the normal humanity as so we pass out at their concerts or strive to gain an autograph, yes their very name on a whatever, and for what reason? Have to seen through the media how they live. Ha what about our behavior towards athletes. How did we get to a place where we think that they are somehow the cream of the crop because they can play a game well? Oh I know I could might just have offended some with that statement, but again many live a life in absolute selfishness and sin. And I know we have some self-righteous who would claim that they never judge people in that way, but this message is for my open-eyed and open-eared people who just want to keep it real same as me.

Now but the bible tells us that who ever wants to be great that they should be servants of all:

Mark 10:39-44 - 42 But Jesus called them to Himself and said to them, “You know that those who are considered rulers over the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. 43 Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant. 44 And whoever of you desires to be first shall be slave of all.

Now you see why if we showed up to heaven in our unredeemed state why no one would apply for leadership positions. Ha, thank God He too just keeps it real.

Do churches have guest speakers, conferences whereby they have many speakers, or seminars and retreats? Yes and I know because I was a part of the church system for over 25-years and I helped pull many of these things together including being a presenter. Why open with this? Because I want to head off any questions as to why I might be using so many books in my messages. It is important to understand that this has always been the method which even our own Jesus used.

Luke 10:1 - After these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two by two before His face into every city and place where He Himself was about to go.

Now so yes, Jesus followed up after them. You could say that His initial crews were like icebreakers and that the main event was to follow them. Not so today. We are the main event and the ice breakers. Now well so how does this parlay, that is, how we use our money, talent, or other assets to achieve His desired objective, into the use of other peoples messages to support the ministry. And well since most of the authors are dead they are not really supporting the ministry as much as they are helping me to teach, which I guess is really helping to support the ministry.

Oh that we could do something of note on earth that after Jesus calls us home our contribution when we were alive would continue to live on. Sounds like what Jesus intended right? Yup, and so it is that when I read or come across something that I think could help my listeners that I use a part or the entire book if small enough to convey the point. Just like churches use guest speakers, I too use them, it’s just that they won’t be available for any book signings. Ha, but no and also we have heard that there is no need to reinvent the wheel, which is an American Idiom used when something that we need already exists. Does using other people’s messages preclude me from being diligent in my studies? Nope, obviously I have learned something from the person in whom I want to share, but also I seek out who influenced them and get some of their stuff as well.

This message comes from my reading the book titled “How You May Become A Successful Christian” written by Gordon Lindsay. I changed the title as I will be adding some commentary and additional information as well as screening out some irrelevant information to the message. If interested in these messages as originally told by Gordon Lindsay I would recommend getting them. I believe he has authored about 250 books. His books on anything about demons and about the end times are really great and full of useful information.

So before I go on the road over the next few days to perform a wedding I thought that I would leave you with something of importance. And but I say it is important because I just learned of it, and I thought to myself, self…why did I ever stay away so long from the book of Revelation considering the following scripture? Then I had a aha moment and thought that few churchy churches actually teach on the book of revelation and the reason in my opinion is similar to the very same reason I had for staying away from it which is that I did not understand what it was saying. Ha, I did read it more than 50x’s in my years of studying it, but I never sought to figure out what it was saying. I do then also remember saying to myself, self why these things are aways off and I will be dead when they begin to happen.

So anyway, keep in mind that the book of Revelation was scribed by John but given by Jesus. Also keep in mind that this is the only book that has such an opening. And considering that we are living in the very days of the book of revelations, would should maybe, like me, make some adjustments into what it is that we are doing in these very last days. Don’t be afraid to read the book. Gordon Lindsay, William Branham, and a few others have some really great things to teach about this book:

Rev 1:1-5 - 1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John, 2 who bore witness to the word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, to all things that he saw. 3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near.

4 John, to the seven churches which are in Asia:

Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are before His throne, 5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth.

Well I decided to read the book of Ephesians, James, Colossians, 1st & 2nd Thessalonians, 1st & 2nd Peter, 1st & 2nd Timothy, the books of 1st, 2nd, & 3rd John, & Titus, Philemon, And Jude. Like 1st, 2nd, & 3rd John they are in a single message, the book of Galatians, Philippians, 1st and 2nd Corinthians, and Hebrews.

I have not added any commentary or narrative nor any chapter or verse references. Because they have been liked by quite a few listeners I thought I would try to do more of them with the remaining New Testament books of the bible. This way you have access to the entire New Testament on my Podcast.

I do think it is a good idea because you can get the entire book in just a few minutes. Front to back without interruption. Now I say that but just reading the bible is not sufficient for learning, so God gave us teachers as well. This is however one way of getting through the books of the bible. Your spirit, new man, inner man, the Holy Spirit, and your heart depend on your getting the word down inside of you. If your Christianity is a dead work, it is because of a lack of bible reading time as well as a lack of bible doing time.

So this message is not about teaching by breaking down the Book Of Matthews, but about allowing you to seek the nuggets for yourself. This message my friends is about listening. Listen to the words, to the sentences, hear in your very spirit what marvelous things are being said.

Now this message will be longer than you might be used to. The goal and purpose of recording each book in its entirety is to give you the uninterrupted, not even by chapter and verses, story. And in longer I mean like a really good 2-hr TV show long, only better.

Now a little chit-chat about the book of Matthews. This is the first of four gospels, although some believe that the book of Acts could also be considered a gospel. Neither weether, it doesn’t matter. What matters is that reading and knowing the gospels alone will not lead you to being a solid Christian. Read or listen to, and do, and can, is the only method which works. I say this as kindly as possible, do not leave it up to your church to equip you to be the Christian you need to be. We are or were when we were unsaved, prone to live life blaming others for our station in life. We liked to hold others accountable for making sure we had everything we desired. Ha, and even as saved beings we can still fall into that error.

In a new marriage no one should have to encourage you to spend time with your new husband or wife, if so then you shouldn’t marry or won’t be married long. Same, same with Jesus. No one should have to tell you to spend time with your new Spiritual Groom (Ephesians 5:25-27, Revelation 19:7-9). If anyone has to tell you to do so, then you are probably not ready to commit to Him and should but beg to be ready soon.

Hosea 6:3 – “…Let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord…”

2nd Tim 2:15 - Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

1st Tim 5:17 - 17 Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine.

Well, get your notepad ready and get ready to be astounded at what you are about to hear.

Well we began on June 28 2022, or I was commissioned by God very near that time to do a Podcast, and I say very near because I didn’t know what a Podcast was when I had received the word from three different people so I had to allow some time to learn everything about Podcasting including but not limited to what’s a good Mic, no wait first I had to look up on YouTube what a Podcast was, then pick videos that would show me, then watch videos about Podcasting sites and which was a good one, free to be more specific, and but not really even that because I had moved so fast that within a month I had to pay for lots more Podcast messaging space. I needed to find a good music website that would keep my out of copywrite issues, editing software that would allow me to record and edit the messages, also free until I needed the professional level stuff. I had a laptop but needed another external drive to store everything that had to do with the ministry.

I needed to rent a cloud as a backup storage place. Because I go out full throttle on everything I wont go into the details about all that I bought including setting up an in home studio that I didn’t need. I also needed an application that would allow me to make the cover, that is what you see when you pull up the message, also for free until I needed the better artwork, and now this too is a monthly fee. No I am not complaining but I include these details because I want you to know how fast I was, God was, moving to get me ripping. I eventually got a three monitor system with a new laptop as the old one was no longer supported and the devil decided to daily send viruses and other crazy stuff which got right by the no-guard in here system. Other things is the website which took a significant amount of money and time, but is well worth it. Creating a YouTube channel, and getting on as many as 30 other platforms.

Currently my message reserve is over 500. What I am really saying is that I am behind that many messages and will probably never get to most of them as I sneeze and get four messages.

The Podcast is three years old and humming along. The data I will be sharing is so that you would know how we are doing. Huh well ok so you have a duel role in this ministry. One is to listen to the messages, develop an action item list and do those things you feel will make you a power Christian. By the way, not to deflate your balloon but all Christians should be power Christians. The other role you have is to share the messages either by printing them, having bible studies using them, sending them to others, or sharing the links which are many but getting to the website will lead a person to where they need to go. It’s like if you had heard of an Evangelist coming to town and he had a ministry of healing. What would you do? Go by yourself? No don’t say that. Ha, you would take people, this is always how Jesus was introduced to people. Same, same for this ministry. If you feel you want to tweak a massage then do so but be careful not to remove the revelation from it. I am a called and anointed teacher so I am doing the work and operating as a Teacher in the church. But I do get if you want to make the message fit more to your style of delivery.

Well so I thought I was going to give you the book Of Matthew, the first gospel story in my podcasting the New Testament series, but I thought that I would do this one next as to get the book off of my desk as they are starting to stack up, and but also because I learned something about baptisms that I had not previously known. Ha, we already know why which is because we the church seem to avoid placing called and anointed teachers in the churches of today. Why? You know it is because we are in the Laodicean church age and it has not been doing church Daddy’s way, or should I say our Lord and Saviors way since it was Him who told us how to do it. Maybe I see the fallacies so easily because I worked for Government for almost 30-years and did learn something about how to organize, structure, operate efficiently, and things like this. The proof, since we always seem to want credibility, even from Jesus, it the fact that the office was at or near the very top in production, quality, and speed of completion of work. Additionally, we had a complete turn around in how the office operated insofar as employees liking and appreciating the culture that they themselves were taught to establish.

But enough about that season of my life as no doubt in the beginning it almost killed me and I was left with no one but Jesus, the CEO of CEO’s to sustain me. He gets all the credit after all in my doing whatever he wanted and equipped me to do using all of everything in terms of talents, skills, and spiritual gifts and calling, oh well and the anointing that He also placed on my life, how can I take credit for anything. Nope nor do I want it least He hold me account for whatever I did in my own strength. Ha

So yes it’s the long way of saying Jesus has taught those who are teachable, not many are, don’t shout me down, how to do church. We can turn the church madness around by:

2 Chron 7:14 - if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

And...

Rev 3:18-22 - 18 I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. 19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent. 20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. 21 To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. 22 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” ’ ”

So, this little message is from a book written by Gordon Lindsay. I am just using his example of prophesy even though it is mostly right out of the bible. I will be adding my own fill-in if you will regarding the rest of the message. The book is titled “The 18-Silent Years and is written in series form about the life of Jesus.

In the book Gordon titled the section, His Ministry, with the His representing Jesus. When I saw how he went from the Old Testament scriptures and showed how they came to pass or will come to pass in the New Testament scriptures, I thought that it would be a great little ditty message that further shores up the bible as being oh so very trustworthy as it remains infallible after more that 2000-yrs. No book ever has remained so enduring in and through time nor as interesting and relevant to our todays and our tomorrows. Of 2500 prophecies all have come to pass but nearly about 500 or less, and even with that many remaining, once they get fulfilled, as it is happening right in front of our faces today, the fulfillment will occur very rapidly. Not like oh we have a couple hundred more years before things wrap up but like we have such an extremely high probability that they will, that is the Bride-Church rapture being one of the key events, will happen in our lifetimes.

The only concern we have impacts all of our eternity which is if the Pharisees didn’t recognize Jesus as God, as the virgin birthed miracle that they so often studied, how easy will it be for the likes of the modern Christian catch the 1st rapture, and the beginning of the tribulation?

Is 9:6-7 - 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.
7 Of the increase of His government and peace
There will be no end,
Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom,
To order it and establish it with judgment and justice
From that time forward, even forever.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.

Ok so some of my listeners, especially the committed ones, may be wondering why I am Podcasting so many messages in these days that are either from the bible, as in reading the bible text without chapter and verse and of course leaving out any commentary that I am tempted to include. I am not sure other than to say that this is my 12-months of studying. Yup I have put behind me over 210 books since February of this year and I blame God for every line I read. I don’t but listen many of you know in listening to my testimony that I am not a reader. Ha, I don’t like to be still. And yes but no I cannot drive and read very well so I don’t do that either.

Because of this reading, I get a lot of relevant messages. They are relevant because I am not reading just whatever I want but what I am led to read. It just so happens that they are teaching stuff that we need to hear today in this very last hour.

My goal is to read 365 books in 365 days, and why should you care? Because I believe anything worth doing is worth setting goals so that you do not get derailed. I track what I read so that I do not lose track. Ha, it also motivates me to continue in this very sedentary activity.

Ha you say I don’t need no stinkin’ goals, and but, I say that it has been my experience that a goaless person is like a ship without a rudder, and more often than not, no like way more often than not, when I ask these people what they want to be when they grow up, None, Nadda, Nill have any idea. Keep in mind we are talking about those who profess to be born again and connected to the god who says nothing is impossible for those who believe. Now this is true unless you really don’t believe. If you are not doing as it pertains to the precise calling of God for your very specific life, then you don’t believe. You see it doesn’t matter what you say but what you do, and but of course if you are doing, then you can say what you are doing, and your life in God lines up perfectly and your saying will also line up with what God wants you to say. Now doesn’t this behavior sound like a ship without a rudder? Of course, because these people think that things will work themselves out just the way they are supposed to. But I say that I have a scripture that tells us the heavy consequences of ignoring the obvious:

Hosea 4:6 - My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.

What! Yes, there has been so many theories about the 144,000 that I eventually settled it that there was one group that met the criteria and that it was going to be the group of Jews who would come out of the tribulation. End of story. Well, nope. I came across this little ditty of a book and had simply learned again that we never stop growing in the Lord when we diligently seek Him:

Heb 11:6 - 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.

So you see my mind was expanded on the topic which by the way is still a prophesy yet to be fulfilled. Now but saying this, I have been studying the book of Revelation as well as other books in the bible to kind of gauge where we are at. The war in Israel will be a huge sign of the times in that they will be led by God to enter into a 7-year peace treaty with the anti-christ. But see knowing this isn’t my concern, but the fact that even though as typical of God, He warned us in advance that these things would happen so that we could be ready, most will ignore or not even see this event for what it is.

Don’t fly by these end times least you be convinced by the lost majority that all will be ok because this new guy is going to rescue us from all of our woes.

I was a little wrecked, not a bad thing in Christ by the way, when I read this and thought I would share that wreckness with you in hopes that we will get to and through the end of this thing just as Jesus intended us to get to and through it.

It’s long but not in comparison to being wrong because we think or thought that we had something better to do with our time.

I have enjoyed all of the Gordon Lindsay books that I have ready and recommend that you get any of them to help you to grow.

I have done messages on the day or hour as it relates to the feasts meaning. It is titled, “Is Jesus coming back Soon And Will We Know Whenish” dated 04/24/2024.

It is pretty comprehensive and but this one has quite a bit to add to it. Thus is the process of always continuing to learn and grow into the very image of Christ.

My sources are as follows along with watching a Christian documentary titled, “Before The Wrath” This video along with the video titled “The Coming Convergence” have really reminded me that we are indeed in the very last seconds of the very last days and that we as Christians should be paying attention. I am pretty sure we will not have any Ostrich Christians in heaven. That is those who simple stuck their heads in the ground and they heard things that they did not want to hear.

This message will hopefully instill in you the whole reason why we should be at least equally excited for Jesus’ return as a bride who hasn’t seen her future husband for at least a year. You see we have marriage traditions that make it difficult for us to understand the value that God places on marriage. We do things like date, have premarital sex, sleep with multiple partners, and yuke other things, all the while diminishing the success rate of any marriage we intend to enter into. And what is ever so much more gross is that we enter into such a sacred event defiled having not committed to save that which is most sacred in ourselves which is saving our bodies for the one and only, and instead have freely prostituted ourselves out for what? ha, no one of course can answer that question intelligibly except the repentant sinner.

Let’s see how it should have been done from the first and how it is being done traditionally in places less gross than in the US, and but most importantly how Jesus explains how it will turn out spiritually for us; for those of us who dare call ourselves the bride of Christ.

Before we begin and please don’t think that this will be a rebuking or correcting type of message, I just had to get that out of me to position our hearts to see the eternal value in marriage and why God hates divorce. Ha, but no I probably won’t hit that in this message. We will stay on this side of the stream.

Well I decided to read the book of Ephesians, James, Colossians, 1st & 2nd Thessalonians, 1st & 2nd Peter, 1st & 2nd Timothy, the books of 1st, 2nd, & 3rd John, & Titus, Philemon, And Jude. Like 1st, 2nd, & 3rd John they are in a single message, the book of Galatians, Philippians and 1st and 2nd Corinthians.

I have not added any commentary or narrative nor any chapter or verse references. Since there seems to be an interest in listening to these, I have decided to do the rest of the New Testament. In just a short bit you will have access to the entire New Testament in audio form on the Deep Waters Podcast. Now how great is that!

I do think it is a good idea because you can get the entire book in just a few minutes. Front to back without interruption. Now I say that but just reading the bible is not sufficient for learning, so God gave us teachers, and the Holy Spirit as well. This is however is one way of getting through the books of the bible. Your spirit, new man, inner man, the Holy Spirit, and your heart depend on your getting the word down inside of you. If your Christianity is a dead work, it is because of a lack of bible reading time as well as a lack of bible doing time.

So this message is not about teaching. We will not be breaking down the Book Of Hebrews, but about allowing you to seek the nuggets for yourself, with the Holy Spirits help of course.

The goal and purpose of recording each book in its entirety is to give you the uninterrupted story. It doesn’t even have chapter and verse callouts. Nice right?

Now a little chit-chat about the book of Hebrews because we have a lot of views about who actually wrote the book. It’s considered the mystery book by many, but I like Kenneth Hagins opinion which is that it was written by Paul. Ultimately, the Holy Spirit inspired it and that is sufficient:

Hosea 6:3 – “…Let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord…”

1st Tim 5:17 - 17 Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine.

2nd Tim 2:15 - Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Yup, its another message from a great little book that I read titled, “Order of Future Events” written by Robert L. Moyer 1954. Now don’t let date throw you as the bible is a book written covering beyond all time that exists and yes we still also find it relevant to our current situation. This book in chapter 5 specifically speaks of a future event of which the bible identifies as the Millennium.

I will read the chapter and make only necessary changes as to help the listenability. Now I know that right there sounds like a new word, but perhaps not. Now but for example the author lists the scriptures in many cases, but no doubt does so with the expectation that his reader will stop reading to look up the verse to gather and comprehend what it is that the author is saying. Now but in the electronic age having such things as computers and electronic bibles, as well as being able to podcast and broadcast right from our very own homes a message, I have stitched in the scriptures. Now I want you to see how I didn’t say it was because of our attention spans being today oh so much more cut up by worldly distractions that I decided long ago to expect that anyone would take the time to look up all of the referenced scriptures. Ha, I didn’t say it because this is how I am many times, although not distracted by worldly stuff I really don’t like to study using the stop-seek-find-get revelation- and return to whatever it is that I was reading, reader. I would that the scripture was included in its entirety even if it makes the book more voluminous. I’m not afraid of fat books.

Ok let’s kick it:

We have seen how this present evil world increases in sin until the sin of man is headed up in the Man of Sin. It is under him that there comes such dreadful persecution that the period is called the great tribulation, this climaxes in the battle of Armageddon. We have seen that this battle is brought to an end by the descent of Christ from heaven. This is the second coming of Christ to the earth, frequently spoken of as His coming with His saints...

In the previous message I told you that I read the book titled, “Hidden Treasure” by Charles C King and that I was going to do several messages on various topics that Charles wrote about in this book. These are very relevant topics for today, and because I did in fact learn something new in reading about them, I thought I would share them with you. Should you get the book? Of course you should as well as other books that he has written.

I will make some modifications to guide the message in a more clearer manner.

When students of Bible prophecy consider the end of the age, the Antichrist is often the center-of-the-stage discussion. This is a dreaded dictator who will be the personification of all that is wicked and evil. Just as there are three titles of God, the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit, there are three titles attributed to the dragon: Satan, the Antichrist, and the false prophet.

When Christ was revealed during his life on earth His ministry was rejected by most of the Jews. He said in John 5:43 –

43 I have come in My Father’s name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, him you will receive.

The Jews are yet waiting for their Messiah, and people of many nations are waiting for someone who can make order out of today's chaotic conditions.

Now this book was written in 1993 so imagine if the author thought it was chaotic back then, I wonder what he would think about the situations that we are in today?

The author goes on to say, when the coming world leader shows his ability to create peace and prosperity, he will be hailed as the long-awaited Messiah. This is where even though it is obvious to a small group of authentically born-again believers, most won’t see the conflict between the Christian belief that Jesus Christ the Messiah, has already been here already, and this new Whoville who says he is the actual messiah. According to the bible the largest part of the global population will take the bait hook, line, and sinker.

Ok so I have talked about the scriptures that say we are saved, will be saved, and are being saved thinking that I knew what I was talking about. And oh yes we walk in the measure of light that we have at the time so no foul no error we just grow on:

1 Cor 1:18 - For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

Notice that scripture didn’t say to them, which would leave us to consider that he is including everyone including those who think that they have already been saved, in the scripture. To US!

Matt 10:22 - And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved.

Let’s look at another:

1 Cor 1:18 - For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

Wait am I saved, being saved, or just already saved? Ha, we will get there.

1 Cor 15:2 - by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.

Ok so I are saved right? But wait there is an if…and but what happens if I don’t hold fast to the word? Then the if is saying maybe not?

Good, hang in as this is a very important message, and I assure you that it will come together in the end. Quit now and you will be left to your ignorance and possibly to your religious offense.

A nicer way of saying this is to be teachable, pliable, humble, and seek the Lord if you are just not sure. I am not Him by the way.

1 Cor 2:15 - For we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing.

So I was reading this book titled, “Mountain Moving Faith” by Kenneth E. Hagin and he stated something of which I thought was pretty interesting. Well interesting enough that I though to share it. He stated,

“faith will work in your heart with doubt in your head”

I thought that this statement was pretty encouraging as it lined up with this scripture I once read:

Matt 28:16-20 - 16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had appointed for them. 17 When they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some doubted.

18 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.

These fella’s walked with Jesus and saw epic heavenly occurrences. Look at what John shares with us:

John 20:30-31 - 30 And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; 31 but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.

John 21:25 - 25 And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen.

Well I decided to read the book of Ephesians, James, Colossians, 1st & 2nd Thessalonians, 1st & 2nd Peter, 1st & 2nd Timothy, the books of 1st, 2nd, & 3rd John, & Titus, Philemon, And Jude. Like 1st, 2nd, & 3rd John they are in a single message. I have also done the book of Galatians and Philippians. I have not added any commentary or narrative nor any chapter or verse references. Because they have been liked by quite a few listeners I thought I would try to do more of them with a few more books of the bible. I am not sure how far I will go in this direction as I also get other messages as well. I will try and mix them in between.

I do think it is a good idea because you can get the entire book in just a few minutes. Front to back without interruption. Now I say that but just reading the bible is not sufficient for learning, so God gave us teachers as well. This is however one way of getting through the books of the bible. Your spirit, new man, inner man, the Holy Spirit, and your heart depend on your getting the word down inside of you. If your Christianity is a dead work, it is because of a lack of bible reading time as well as a lack of bible doing time.

So this message is not about teaching by breaking down the Book Of 1st Corinthians, but about allowing you to seek the nuggets for yourself. This message my friends is about listening. Listen to the words, to the sentences, hear in your very spirit what marvelous things are being said.

Consider that this could easily have been one church service. Yes, getting all that you are about to hear from just a little more than a few pages in just one church service.

Hosea 6:3 – “…Let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord…”

2nd Tim 2:15 - Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

1st Tim 5:17 - 17 Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine.

Well, get your notepad ready and get ready to be astounded at what you are about to hear.

The following is an article that will be in a book put out by Real Life Stories. It is a ministry that gives testimony books out as they preach the gospel in power to see salvations. I have talked about my struggles before I thought I would share again so that as we continue to grow together you may never forget that I am always, like you, in process and subject to miss it with God. The only sure thing is Jesus. Always keep your eyes on Him while growing with others just like you. You are no doubt more, way more than you are currently walking in which isn’t to say you are not already running for God, but getting to completion is a lifelong venture full of great and wonderful experiences in Him, by Him, and through Him. Yes we cannot imagine what He has for us after we have finished our race, but use you imagination to keep yourself encouraged when things get tough. I think about what He has set me free from so as to keep my buoyancy in my faith.

The following testimony can be found in the book Real Life Stories Lighthouse Drug and Alcohol Edition. If you would like to share your testimony related to this topic send me an email at

I grew up in an abusive home. My father was mostly absent, and when he was around, it was often for the worst reasons. My mother worked constantly to support four kids, leaving us largely unsupervised. By the time I was five or six, my sister and I were scavenging for food—plants, tree leaves, even dirt. Hunger and neglect were our constants…

I have developed this message by way of reading the books Mountain Moving Faith by Kenneth Hagin and King-Priest and Favor - The Road To Success written by Bob Buess.

So this is going to be about the confessions of scripture as they apply to our lives, and how we communicate our words when exercising our God faith.

In Mark 11:22 we can see that it says and Jesus answering said unto them have faith in God. What it is really saying is have the God kind of faith.

Mark 11:22 - 22 So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God.

Now we know this or can see a demonstration of this in Mark:

Mark 11:12-14, 20-22 - 12 Now the next day, when they had come out from Bethany, He was hungry. 13 And seeing from afar a fig tree having leaves, He went to see if perhaps He would find something on it. When He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs. 14 In response Jesus said to it, “Let no one eat fruit from you ever again.” And His disciples heard it.

Verses 20-22 - 20 Now in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. 21 And Peter, remembering, said to Him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree which You cursed has withered away.” 22 So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God.

If we look at Mark 11:23 we can see how Jesus defines the God kind of faith:

Mark 11:23 - 23 For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.

So I thought maybe I should look up the word fleece and see what the internet would say. Ha, no but fabric isn’t what I am looking for, and oh the bunches of different kinds of fabric.

So anyway I decided to take a look at just how the bible is using the word and go with that. Why Podcast Preacher? Because it isn’t entirely the point to the message. It is why we do such things that is the point and it is this that has generated this message.

So lets go to where it uses the word fleece in the bible and see how or why it was used:

Judges 6:11-27 - 11 Now the Angel of the Lord came and sat under the terebinth tree which was in Ophrah, which belonged to Joash the Abiezrite, while his son Gideon threshed wheat in the winepress, in order to hide it from the Midianites. 12 And the Angel of the Lord appeared to him, and said to him, “The Lord is with you, you mighty man of valor!”

13 Gideon said to Him, “O my lord, if the Lord is with us, why then has all this happened to us? And where are all His miracles which our fathers told us about, saying, ‘Did not the Lord bring us up from Egypt?’ But now the Lord has forsaken us and delivered us into the hands of the Midianites.”

14 Then the Lord turned to him and said, “Go in this might of yours, and you shall save Israel from the hand of the Midianites. Have I not sent you?”

15 So he said to Him, “O my Lord, how can I save Israel? Indeed my clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father’s house.”

16 And the Lord said to him, “Surely I will be with you, and you shall defeat the Midianites as one man.”

17 Then he said to Him, “If now I have found favor in Your sight, then show me a sign that it is You who talk with me. 18 Do not depart from here, I pray, until I come to You and bring out my offering and set it before You.”

And He said, “I will wait until you come back.”...

Jer 1:12 - 12 Then the Lord said to me, “You have seen well, for I am ready to perform My word.”

What’s with all of the scripture Podcast Preacher? It’s the ony thing we have to lean on in our walk with God. It is His gift to us so that we would have hot bullets for our prayer guns. Ha.

This message started out it’s intent to be for my Friday night bible study crew, but then as I began to develop it, I thought I should just invite all of you to the bible study. Ha, no but yes you are attending a bible study in this message, and oh is it a powerful word. Look if you have been asking God to respond, or you are looking for a prayer response, you will find the keys that will unlock it in this message.

I was reading the other day the book titled, Understanding How To Fight The Good Fight Of Faith written by Kenneth E. Hagin and thought that every believer could benefit from this book. Yes, no matter where you are at in your walk with God this book will help to advance you in your journey. But, in my reading I saw another message, so I am using some quotes or sentences that Kenneth used in the book along with some of the scriptures he referenced. But for sure this is not a faith message but more of a foundational message as to how things work with God. You need to understand why your prayers are not getting addressed by the heavenly post office. And I am sure that after you have listened to the entirety of this message your life will absolutely be headed forward in the things of God including your receiving the faith to move those mountains we so often talk about.

Listen to these Kenneth statements as there is some wisdom in what he is saying:

· You cannot believe beyond your knowledge of God's word.

· The lack of God's word produces unbelief.

· We cannot act upon God's word beyond our knowledge of his word.

· Faith grows by our understanding of his word.

· A lack of knowledge of God's word is the greatest hindrance to Faith.

Yes, this, out of 560 messages is my first message on money. What does that make me a nice guy? Nope, I definitely had some things to work through before I could do it, and well to be honest I still, as of today April, 25 2025, wasn’t inclined to talk about it.

But in a discussion with a friend who runs the Men’s Resource Center in Chico Ca, we got to talking about it. You can find out more about this ministry by taking a look at their website: Chicomrc.com.

By the way, as you grow in ministry your circle of friends will shrink. Don’t be alarmed as not all those who began with you will stay with you for a variety of reasons. Now before I get on into this message just know it is a bit of a message but if you stay with it then you will be blessed. Look at what happens to people when their motives for running for God are challenged with the truth. And but you should know this is not the core of the message but it does lay down the foundation which is the condition of your heart. How you feel after you hear such a message will help you to locate your own spirit with the things of God:

John 6:22-69 - 22 On the following day, when the people who were standing on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except that one which His disciples had entered, and that Jesus had not entered the boat with His disciples, but His disciples had gone away alone— 23 however, other boats came from Tiberias, near the place where they ate bread after the Lord had given thanks— 24 when the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, nor His disciples, they also got into boats and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus. 25 And when they found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, “Rabbi, when did You come here?”

26 Jesus answered them and said, “Most assuredly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw the signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled. 27 Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set His seal on Him.”

28 Then they said to Him, “What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?”

29 Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.”

30 Therefore they said to Him, “What sign will You perform then, that we may see it and believe You? What work will You do? 31 Our fathers ate the manna in the desert; as it is written, ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’ ”

32 Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread from heaven, but My Father gives you the true bread from heaven. 33 For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”

34 Then they said to Him, “Lord, give us this bread always.”

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. 36 But I said to you that you have seen Me and yet do not believe. 37 All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out. 38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. 39 This is the will of the Father who sent Me, that of all He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day. 40 And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”

41 The Jews then complained about Him, because He said, “I am the bread which came down from heaven.” 42 And they said, “Is not this Jesus, the son of J

It’s a three book day if you decide to stay. Ok so yes I said it that just because it rhymes. So but consider this that John wrote His gospel which is quite most powerful and one day I will record the entire gospel as I am doing with these other books. Of note he also wrote these three books along with being the scribe for Jesus as He revealed the book of Revelation to John. We can almost get spiritually inebriated at the thought that Paul wrote much of the new testament and why not as his level of revelation was as Peter stated, “hard to understand.”

2 Peter 3:16 - as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures.

Well but so if we were to consider the depth of the writings and revelation, John was right there with him in that some of the things John shared are also hard to understand. But also when you get the revelation of those things in spending time with God, it feels like otherworldly. And but I know it is spiritual and it has quite a bit to do with us and our position to God so I will stop jabbering so as to prove the point.

So one day I decided to record me reading the book of Ephesians, James, Colossians, 1st & 2nd Thessalonians, 1st & 2nd Peter, & 1st & 2nd Timothy without adding any commentary or narrative nor any chapter or verse references. I noticed that these messages have been liked by quite a few listeners so I thought I would try to do so with a few more books of the bible. I am not sure how far I will go in this direction as I also get other messages as well. I will try and mix them in between.

I do think it is a good idea because you can get the entire book in just a few minutes. Front to back without interruption. Now I say that but just reading the bible is not sufficient for learning, so God gave us teachers as well, but also told us that faith without works is dead (James 2:20). This is however one way of getting through the books of the bible. Your spirit, new man, inner man, the Holy Spirit, and your heart depend on your getting the word down inside of you. If your Christianity is a dead work, it is because of a lack of bible reading time as well as a lack of bible doing time.

So this message is not about teaching or by breaking down the books of 1st, 2nd, & 3rd John, but simply providing you an opportunity to seek the nuggets for yourself. This message my friends is about listening. Listen to the words, to the sentences, hear in your very spirit what marvelous things are being said, and how they apply to you.

So, I will read all three books. Consider that this could easily have been one church service. Yes, getting all that you are about to hear from just a little more than a few pages in just one church service.

All scripture is powerful and needs to be spoken out-loud as a manner of warfare against the devil who roams around like a Lion:

1 Peter 5:8 - Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

He doesn’t have permission to bite you unless you stand idly by and allow him. Don’t give him free-be’s; warrior up Christian peeps and use the Word of God as your weapon of choice.

Scripture is your sword and your primary weapon:

Heb 4:12 - 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.

Eph 6:17 - 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;

Get to doing some math and start dividing the truth from lies, lightness from darkness, holiness from unholiness, righteousness from unrighteousness, purity from impurity, spirit from natural and natural from spiritual, and so on and so forth.

2 Tim 2:15 - Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Listen and use His word as weapons as He declares Himself:

Is 55:11 - So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.

Do we have any evidence that God is not lying or playing favorites? Let’s see:

1 Sam 3:19 - So Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him and let none of his words fall to the ground.

Why did He do this with Samuel? He will do the same for you as He gave gifts to men:

Eph 4:8 - 8 Therefore He says:

“When He ascended on high,
He led captivity captive,
And gave gifts to men.”

Me, me, me, me…hum what? Doesn’t making melody require that we have melody?

D-Com please:

Melody:

1. musical sounds in agreeable succession or arrangement.

2. Music.

   1. the succession of single tones in musical compositions, as distinguished from harmony and rhythm.
   2. 1. the principal part in a harmonic composition; the air.
   3. 1. a rhythmical succession of single tones producing a distinct musical phrase or idea.
   4. a poem suitable for singing.
   5. intonation, as of a segment of connected speech.

Hum well it seems so but lets look at what the bible says about this thing:

Ephesians 5:19 - 19 speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,

Ok so we should back up on this scripture for some context:

Eph 5:17-19 - 17 Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is. 18 And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit, 19 speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,

Ah, we should be filled with the spirit so that we do not get a Simon Cowel judgement. Ha. And so but when we are filled with the Spirit, and not just any ol spirit but the Holy Spirit, we can maybe should be able to talk in a singing voice. Like sing-talking right? Now to be honest I have never heard anyone sing-talk but it states that if we are filled with the Spirit that we should be doing so. It feels like we are kind of missing out on something really cool right?

The first thing you should know is how difficult it was to just read through those books without speaking to any of the revelation that they contain. But I did it and well they have been liked by quite a few listeners so I thought I would try to do so with a few more books of the bible. I am not sure how far I will go in this direction as I also get other messages as well. I will try and mix them in between.

I do think it is a good idea because you can get the entire book in just a few minutes. Front to back without interruption. Now I say that but just reading the bible is not sufficient for learning, so God gave us teachers as well. This is however one way of getting through the books of the bible. Your spirit, new man, inner man, and the Holy Spirit depend on your getting the word down inside of you. If your Christianity is a dead work, it is because of a lack of bible reading time as well as a lack of bible doing time.

So this message is not about teaching by breaking down the book of 2nd Peter, but about allowing you to seek the nuggets for yourself. This message my friends is about listening. Listen to the words, to the sentences, hear in your very spirit what marvelous things are being said.

So, I will read the entire book. which will make for a very satisfying spiritual meal. Consider that this could easily have been one church service. Yes, getting all that you are about to hear from just a little more than a few pages in just one church service.

2nd Tim 2:15 - Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

1st Tim 5:17 - 17 Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine.

Get your notepad ready and get ready to be astounded at what you are about to hear.

We could also call this message “The well and river Attributes of the Holy Spirit.”

The primary scripture for the significance of wells is below. The full story can be found in John 4:1-42. I am just including the well-relevant portion so we can stay topic centered. Ha let’s go:

John 4:13-14 “…13 Jesus answered and said to her, “Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, 14 but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.”

Ok so with that beginning I will let you in on the topic. Basically, you have a well within you, and a river within you. The various scriptures will prove that out but so that I make the point I will reference the scriptures and then get to why we are listening to this message.

And so but I am doing this message in part because I have done many, many messages on why we all should be operating in Spiritual miracles, signs, and wonders, and some of us in the spiritual offices in Eph chapter 4 as well.

So you could say that I have overly emphasized the spiritual gifts given in part because they are missing in the majority of todays churches. It’s like if the churches represented hospitals, they would be almost absent of any doctors. The church in part is a spiritual hospital as well as a training center for Christians.

Now having said that, the absent of training, equipping the saints for the work of ministry and making disciples is one of the key reasons why we do not have the gifts in operation. That has been my drum beat thus far.

And but well in this reading season of which I am in right now, I have discovered some new things. Important things in terms of what a complete Christian looks like. That is how we function as authentically born-again believers able to do all that Jesus did and more. The manifestation of the gifts is only one part.

I will answer the question “How To Memorize Scriptures” faster than maybe in any other message, and the answer is, drum roll please, read your Bible and be full of the Holy Spirit. And but also do what it states because this is how the information goes from head knowledge to inner-man or spirit knowledge.

Your criminal mind, that is your natural mind is at enmity against God and so any type of natural memory techniques is futile. In other words you cannot effectively memorize scripture that will be a benefit to your spiritual walk. The end of this message will bear this out and explain why what I just stated there is true:

Rom 8:7 - Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.

Scripture was not meant to remain in your brain but to drop down into your heart and spirit which are one and the same thing:

Ez 11:19 - Then I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within them, and take the stony heart out of their flesh, and give them a heart of flesh,

Ez 18:31 - Cast away from you all the transgressions which you have committed, and get yourselves a new heart and a new spirit. For why should you die, O house of Israel?

So, you see, forgetfulness is satanic and but I am not saying if you cannot remember stuff you are the devil, no what I am saying is that there is a reason why you forget scripture almost right out the gate. Yes, there is a reason why you don’t remember what the Sunday message is no matter how good it was. Have you ever studied for a test only to forget everything you studied? You can blame it on nerves, or genetics, or claim it happens because you have a bad memory, but none of those things are true if you are indeed an authentically born-again believer. I will show you why:

John 10:10 - 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

Ok so a little of where we are at with the ministry in March 2025, before we get into this message. On just one of 30-platforms, Buzzsprout, we are shown to be in 67 countries, 422 cities, we have 4074 total downloads, and have 553 episodes since the start of Applied Strengths Ministry in June 28, 2022. The ministry will be 3-years old later in 2025. Ok, so North America currently has the most downloads, but we have a location in Europe that has the most downloads for a single city. Helsinki-Uusimaa in Finland has about 75% of the total downloads from Europe which comes out to be 495 downloads. Ashburn Virginia, Los Angeles California, and then my old stomping grounds Chico California which has about 25% of the downloads which of course is in the United States. The US currently has 81% of the total downloads.

You know all I care about is a growing and ever-increasing activity of His bride church. We all already know by now that Salvation is a free gift and cannot be earned, and well so is the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and your complete and total freedom from sickness and disease. Yes, all gifts which are to be received, not given by anyone, not imparted by a special group or prayer, ceptin’ sickness and disease for those who have not yet discovered that they have a spiritual right to be sickness and disease free under the best covenant provided by the blood of Jesus. The bible is always true no matter how blind we choose to be right?:

Mark 16:16 - He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. To believe is to receive right?

Mark 11:24 - 24 Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

Matt 7:7-8 - 7 “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

So I went scripture scuba-diving to look for all of the scriptures pertaining to healing. I Had them marked in one of my bibles, but ended up just reading through the four gospels which is how I ended up with this message. Now why I looked for the healing scriptures will be coming out in a future testimony message. I say future not because it hasn’t happened already, but that I am working on so many messages right now dealing with our untapped supernatural anointing and Holy Spirit power and fire. Yes, reading Kenneth Hagin books will do that to a man. In fact when I recently went to San Diego and was prayed over, one of the answers to one of my prayers before going to San Diego that I had received was that I should slow down on the podcast so as not to miss what god would be saying. Well I think He is saying something about healing, miracles, signs, and wonders, and but about why we are not doing what He gave us permission and even a mandate to do. So but I will get to my testimony message shortly.

So but now we address the elephant in the room or should we say ghost? Ha

If I don’t got it, I can get it, or just die with it, it is up to me, based on the hardness of my spirit or heart which is one and the same thing, and whether I think God lies or only tells us the truth. If there is one lie in the bible I would bet a million dollars or a chunk of heavenly highway that it is in fact impossible for God to lie. It’s in the bible three times. I will let you sort it out.

So before we get in to the “how” of the message, let’s get into the “what” of the message. By looking at both, you will see that the “what” cannot be completed by the “how” unless we believe that the “what” is for us to do.

The “what” in this section is defined as what Jesus did while on earth.

Luke 4:33-35 - 33 Now in the synagogue there was a man who had a spirit of an unclean demon. And he cried out with a loud voice, 34 saying, “Let us alone! What have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth? Did You come to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God!”

35 But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be quiet, and come out of him!” And when the demon had thrown him in their midst, it came out of him and did not hurt him.

If you see a pattern in the messages it is because God is trying to say something about something. And though you might be inclined to skip a message as you think it is repetitive, they are not. Each one has its own revelation and point of contact for you if you so desire.

Ok, unless you knew me you might be offended at that statement or at me for having the faith and truth of the bible to prove it, and but to also say it. What Mr Podcast Preacher that sounds like you are putting words into my mouth. No, I am keeping you from thinking outer man thoughts as your thoughts and words contain life or death depending on which you believe in (Pro 18:21). If you say I am sick or I feel sick then you have spoken it into existence and it will be as you have declared. Not as God desired, nor as the holy Spirit would allow as He is the power to stand against the wiles of the devil which is where sickness comes from. Not me, not God, only you. And now but there are many ways to get healed. I just read a book that demonstrated 7-different ways in which this happens.

But I am going to deal with the one way in which it has already happened. What is it Podcast Man? It is sickness and disease and that they were cast into hell and defeated along with your sins and curses. Yup.

Now I have been frustrated for years as to why I would get sick and sometimes be healed and other times not. And I was told a plethora of reasons don’t come from the bible including being told that they were not sure. But not from the position of knowing what the bible states about healing but that they didn’t know anything about that kind of stuff. Or even worse which is that God gave us doctors to handle the difference. Nope, He gave us Doctors for us who are growing in faith. At some point we ought not need them.

Ok so what is about to happen Podcast Preacher? Well I after looking to expound just on Paul’s prayer in Ephesians got wreckatioded by reading, on and on, looking for a place to stop. And but so in that process decided within my spirit that perhaps I couldn’t find a place to stop because I wasn’t supposed to. So I said what Mr. me. Read the whole book of Ephesians without explanation? Yup

So this message is not about teaching by breaking down Ephesians, and well and good because truly it would take an 800 page volume to do so, Oh it’s so rich in everything it says. It just goes from glory to glory in all that Paul is sharing through the Holy Spirit.

This my friends is about listening. Listen to the words, to the sentences, hear in your very spirit what marvelous things are being said. I have heard it said that Ephesians is the book of maturity. But nah, nah, God can show a child deep revelation depending on where they are at with Him to begin with. Now yes, you can mature if you read, seek its knowledge, understand what it is saying through the Holy Spirit, and then do what it says. In just this one book I can’t see how three lifetimes would accomplish it, but I know in faith nothing is impossible for those who believe and then see the manifestation of their belief.

So, I will read the entire book which will make for the riches spiritual meal we have ever had together. Oh and I am also going to remove all of the chapters and verses so that it just reads as Paul wrote it. Think also upon this. Consider that this could easily have been one church service. Yes, getting all that you are about to hear from just a little more than a few pages in just one church service.

Get your notepad ready and get ready to be astounded at what you are about to hear.

Why? Oh but I read a great book or booklet written by Kenneth E. Hagin titled, “Seven Things You Should Know About Divine Healing.”

Credibility is something I look for before diving in on any research of a topic or ministry. Kenneth was healed at around 16-yrs of age of a heart and blood condition. No cure but the bible, and not even the bible if the principles are not applied correctly. Yes, God has a method in which to do things. And but of course He will always meet you where you are. Faith, no faith it is up to Him always. But you don’t have to just rely on anything being His move. Healing is already a promise that has been let out of the gates.

So I found this and thought I should move it to the front of the message to lay a spiritually permanent foundation in your thoughts. Your thoughts, your spirit is heart originated. So let it set your heart right as we move forward.

2 Cor 5:17 - Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

It would be like having insurance on your house, then a fire comes and takes everything, and regardless of your feelings, the insurance pays out and you begin again. Yes, it is a very simple analogy to make another point.

Jesus is the payment for your sickness.

So, let’s look at the story before we get into our story:

Luke 15:11-32 - 11 Then He said: “A certain man had two sons. 12 And the younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me.’ So he divided to them his livelihood. 13 And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, journeyed to a far country, and there wasted his possessions with prodigal living. 14 But when he had spent all, there arose a severe famine in that land, and he began to be in want. 15 Then he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. 16 And he would gladly have filled his stomach with the pods that the swine ate, and no one gave him anything.

17 “But when he came to himself, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! 18 I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you, 19 and I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants.” ’

20 “And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. 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. 23 And bring the fatted calf here and kill it, and let us eat and be merry; 24 for this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ And they began to be merry.

25 “Now his older son was in the field. And as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing. 26 So he called one of the servants and asked what these things meant. 27 And he said to him, ‘Your brother has come, and because he has received him safe and sound, your father has killed the fatted calf.’

28 “But he was angry and would not go in. Therefore his father came out and pleaded with him. 29 So he answered and said to his father, ‘Lo, these many years I have been serving you; I never transgressed your commandment at any time; and yet you never gave me a young goat, that I might make merry with my friends. 30 But as soon as this son of yours came, who has devoured your livelihood with harlots, you killed the fatted calf for him.’

31 “And he said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours. 32 It was right that we should make merry and be glad, for your brother was dead and is alive again, and was lost and is found.’ ”

Ok so I came up with this title, nope not I, but God gave it as well as all of them to me, shortly after my return from San Diego to visit my sister. And but now I see that in hindsight maybe it was as much about pouring into others from Rev Church and those who attend Elisha Ministries, as it was to visit her. Those links are on my website.

And I can say this without hurting her feelings but if her and I just hung out and did a bunch of stuff like sight seeing and shopping we would have fun, but without ministering to others together and including God in our every step, it would not be as much fun. We are both hungry for the things of God and throughout the years we have grown closer and closer in the Lord and with each other. I appreciate having her in my life nearly more than anything. Yes God, my wife and kids are so much appreciated. But having someone in your life who doesn’t see you as a weird Christian because you walk around lit up for the things of God is very nice and from the Lord. If we had street names we would call it, “The Torchers.”

Ha, so I was working on a message titled, “The Four Enemies Of Peace”, and well I was working on that one because the message previous to it titled, “Baby Shark Dance”, was interrupted by it. Are you lost yet, ha, but so Baby Shark Dance did get posted, and well if all goes well if it just goes, I will have posted, “The Enemies Of Peace” before I post this one which popped into my head as I was once again left alone with my thoughts. And well you know when it rains my cup overflows, I have 400 unfinished messages to prove it.

Now I don’t imagine that this will take that long to process because the point is fairly simple. And don’t see it as semantically semantical more than it is this, that, and sometimes the other. Let’s D-Com semantical and see what it means:

1. in a way that relates to the different meanings of words or other signs or symbols:

Humans have developed languages that are semantically rich and can cope easily with philosophical concepts.

1. in a way that deliberately takes advantage of the connotations or associations attached to certain words:

He deals with this bombing campaign semantically by saying it is “not a war” since there are “no hostile troops on the ground.”

So, lot’s of defining needed here as, the days that we have already passed through, have shown the condition of most of our Christian brethren, and of the things on this earth. Ha, no but I don’t include fake-believers, make-believers, or non-interested in God anything people, of which I was one for over 30-yrs.

Now but so, I came in my office to redo a message that I did the day before but it just wasn’t up to par (Baby Shark Dance), so I deleted it and expected to re-record it again this morning. But as usual if you give me any time in my head the messages start to drop in like gold nuggets. I am always looking for them because I suspect that maybe one day thousands will be dramatically impacted enough to want to know God above all else that is temporary and all of it is temporary.

No but so, these four little words are what we can call quivers from the devil, and he is always looking to shoot them into his targets of which you are if you are an authentically born-again believer.

So, my first thought was to define each of the four words so that we have a real good understanding of what they mean. Listen, words have power. Let there be light and there was light. Words created everything that is seen and unseen. Words. And when you lock into behaviors that are not of God, then it is a signal to you that you have been shot by the devil. Perhaps you let your spiritual guard down, forgot to read your daily 100 pages of the bible, ha, yah, but I don’t even read that many. Maybe you just haven’t entered into the reality that you have been set free, not recovering as some do, but actually they have been set free, like one minute you wanted to smoke, and the next minute you lost all appetite to do such a thing. That a supernatural only level of freedom. We will get back to that in a short bit. Let’s look into the quiver of the devils arsenal and see some of the more popular arrows that he uses.

· Worry

· Anxiety

· Fear

I don’t know why this message other than to make a pretty good point which is that how we spend our time determines the strength of our relationship with God. No, this is not possible for those who are make-believers, fake-believers, or non-believers. They will swarm to whatever is popular. But now in that 15-billion number I wonder how many distracted, and I mean this by way of, this is what you do over spending time getting to know the God that you will be spending eternity with, are included in that number, or for that matter, any and all of whatever time is spend watching other videos. Now if you are totally up to speed with all things God then this message may simply be a tool to share with someone else, you know, who is inebriated with the lures of the devil. Ha, that came out of well somewhere didn’t it. So let’s move to it shall we?

This is a great number if your goal is to monetize your efforts right? But I am using this statistic to provide a different angle. Fifteen billion views to watch a video like this, and but we also have other music videos with more than a billion views. Again, nothing wrong as people got to make a living. But now what about the video’s or Podcasts that teach Gods word? What about those video’s whereby angels are recorded singing? How about the video’s where the Holy Spirit is moving powerfully? Compared to the above statistics, they are almost un-measurable numbers. And but why? I mean according to Google almost everyone in America is a Christian. It just doesn’t make sense. Well, unless somebody’s lying. Right?

How many times have we heard since about 911, it is actually scripture, well part of it, not that anyone who stated such things ever knew that it was scripture that they were quoting but nonetheless they said it in one form or fashion or another:

Is 9:10 - “The bricks have fallen down,
But we will rebuild with hewn stones;
The sycamores are cut down,
But we will replace them with cedars.”

911, fires, floods, hurricanes, tornadoes’, economic disasters caused by the former administration, specifically the Palisades fire in SoCal. So what is up with this quoting a God curse? I just don’t get how we get backwards on things. Hummm, yes I do and that is the point of this message.

Jonathan Cahn has written some spectacular books on such things as these, and I would tell you which specific ones to get, but it would be more beneficial to you if you just got them all and read them.

Talk about how dangerous this mindset is considering what God did to Israel when they said the same thing. What? Shouldn’t our great leaders know this Podcast Preacher? So what happened?

I do want to give a shout out to my listeners in North America and in Asia. There is no slowdown in them. I attribute these days in a hypothetical mind-thought. So imagine if we actually knew that Japan was going to attack Pearl Harbor, ok and yes we did actually know, but well you know. And so but if we believed it could and would happen what kind of preparations would we have made to protect it? And all those who served in the military shout out that we would have sent every airplane we had, more ships, many more troops, and a lot of anti-aircraft artillery right. The point is that we would have prepared. And so the event of all events is taking place which is that Jesus is returning and based on the signs of the time and the other global events that are taking shape, ought we not prepare? I mean, Jesus said something like. Nope, He said

Luke 12:35-43 - 35 “Let your waist be girded and your lamps burning; 36 and you yourselves be like men who wait for their master, when he will return from the wedding, that when he comes and knocks they may open to him immediately. 37 Blessed are those servants whom the master, when he comes, will find watching. Assuredly, I say to you that he will gird himself and have them sit down to eat, and will come and serve them. 38 And if he should come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants. 39 But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would [a]have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. 40 Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.”

41 Then Peter said to Him, “Lord, do You speak this parable only to us, or to all people?”

42 And the Lord said, “Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his master will make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of food [b]in due season? 43 Blessed is that servant whom his master will find so doing when he comes.

I guess what I am saying before I get into the message, is that you cannot hear too much about the things of God in these days. The average amount of time that you put useless information into your noodle should not come anywhere near to exceeding the information about the things of God that you should be putting into your head. Now but really think about this. He is returning for you. Yes, make it personal because it is going to be very one-on-one-ish. When He comes what will you be doing. And but be real honest here. It is rather scary simple. Consider how much of your thoughts and actions are bent towards His approval now. If God is simply an item on your list of things to do in a day, you will be caught off guard. He is your coming perfect King. Nobody and nothing is comparable to what He is like. If someone said to you, hey I am coming over to your house to give you a trillion dollars, but your house must be spectacularly clean to get it. Why you would head off to the dollar store pronto and begin the process of complete sterilization of everything. Yes, you would be wiping off all of the food items in the pantry. You would sell off all of your animals just to be sure no more hair or smell of cat box remains. Ha, I am just saying you would go over the top for what? A little cash that is surely to bring you as much trouble is it does blessing. And but when He comes nothing but blessing follows for those who are watching, reading, praying (talking to Him), doing the things

I was thinking this morning as I was well thinking, and this strange sort of story began to unfold right before my very mind.

Let’s just get it.

I am using a deer, as in four-footed forest creature, as an analogy for how we as Christians might ever so be inclined to instruct God how we think, a God thing should work out, rather than just following His Will and His way in our lives at every commanded turn.

So, there was this deer you see, who didn't like the idea, that every year his horns would fall off and then he would have to grow a new pair the following year. He thought that it was unwise not to have any protection for the antlerless part of the year. So he decided to ask God if instead of letting his horns fall off the in the next following year, if He, God would just allow them to remain. They would just stay on his head and continue to grow through the next year and the next, and so forth and so on. The deer also thought that this would allow him to eventually be the buck of all bucks, because he could walk a strut while the other bucks humbly got along, although at times still acting a little bucky.

God said, “okay Bucky I will allow you to have your desire as you have requested. Too put in in human terms when we run off of the God beaten path He will also give us our desire, a desire we must have, to have run off the God beaten path.

So, the next year comes through and instead of Bucky’s horns falling off they remained on his head. He thought wow this is great because now my horns will have a growing head start a head of all of the other Bucky’s. He reflected on His conversation with God and murmured under his chinny breath, “we all make mistakes oh ye great horn maker of heaven and earth.” Ha

Now what a headache of a statement to hear from our Lord and Savior after all that He went through to save mankind from Hell right. I mean unless we don’t know what He went through, and truly from a human perspective, unnecessarily, because we are born sinners and really are not born with a desire to sacrifice for anyone unless there is something in it for us. Ha, and that is the thing right there that separates us from Him, from Jesus, in that there really wasn’t anything in it for Him. No, but hit the brain-thought pause button right there. Why was He being murdered for being honest in everything He said and did? I mean now think of this, from your perspective, your human perspective. Imagine you are a trillionaire with access to everything imaginable and unimaginable, and someone comes to you and makes you this offer. Heyman dude, hummm how would you like to set aside everything you have here, you know perfect peace, no wars, no disease, no sickness, no angry crowds shouting kill Him, kill Him, no drugs, no anything trying to destroy everything you have created, and go and rescue some people who with everything in them hate your living guts? Hummm, and but to complete the project you will have to allow them to murder you without any justification and complain not one word about it. And but you cannot also use any of your power to interrupt the process such as calling on legions of angels to fight against the mob-mad crowds.

He said yes I will do it for just one of them. Wait, no really wait. He said yes to becoming human and living in a world dominated by sin, curses, evil, run by satan, in a horrible state of corruption at every angle, and under the rule of decay. He said yes to becoming your very life outside of God so that you could have a life in God. There was nothing in it for Him but to win over His enemies with love. No false god could have ever, would have ever, never in their fake and made up godness could have made such a sacrificial offer. And when I say becoming it, I mean He would become your sin, encounter the curses that come with being a sinner including dying in His flesh, Spirit, and His very Soul, being born-again as everyone who comes out of sin must be born again, and though He Himself wasn’t a sinner, He went to hell as a bearer of your sins, got absolutely mangled by every demon that ever did fall from heaven until He was no longer recognizable, and then when all of His precious blood was laid on the alter for you, His perfect sin-canceling blood given for you, He raised Himself up out of the grave with the ownership of the earth and all that resides on it once again. The cover letter still had Adams signature on it. Oh how we were absolutely helpless to deliver ourselves from well our sinful selves. And but God with everything to experience as a human, which was strictly a volunteer choice, did it for you and me.

Today more than ever there seems to be a spirit of hesitation that people go by in these days. Now you know I'm talking about Christians. And I know things come up such as people violating your trust, getting caught up in things you shouldn't have got caught up in and then making a personal vow to never let that happen again. And/or that God may have been just using that season to teach you something, but stopping or hesitating wasn't one of the things He was trying to teach you. However, you ending up being in a hesitory state is, well maybe it isn’t just nothing. You must deal with any offenses, and unforgiveness, any personal vows that you made which stop your spiritual growth and progress. You need to see that the devil uses people to stop you or to slow you down so by where at least daily you get passed up by a slug or two. It’s a strategy period.

Overreacting is another thing that is cojoined to the principle of hesitation. And I will try and give you an example here.

So in Paradise we had a fire back in November 2018 and it burned about 80 percent or so of the town. And so but now that it has been just over 6 years later, the town of paradise, that is the government of paradise, is paying third party contractors to turn what could be manageable and lush Forest into deserts. We know this method as clear cutting and it's done all the time in the Amazon forest. Well guess what? It's alive and well in paradise now. The town pays contractors to literally strip the land of everything living with the exception of big trees for fear of another fire. Now many of you may not know this but the paradise fire was deemed as a 500-year fire event. This means that there was a lot of time to build up a lot of debris including the things that people collected and left on their properties to burn. But now desertification is going to be the new norm, at least based on what we're seeing right now. This is an improper way to manage a forest. And oh yes, penalties come from the Town if you yourself are unable to deforest on your own. Fear, fear, fear.

The recent Palisades and Altadena fires have a story to tell. You, and get this and take heed that God always gives us advance notice, cannot prepare for a disaster event, a personal trauma, emergency, or any other unforeseen events, during the event. The time of preparation is passed. Now it is response time, and in this time you depend on things to be in place that should have been discussed in the planning and preparation phase. Now obviously there have been many who don’t understand what it is to attend those meetings as when things are going well, some say or think, that there is no reason to get too worked up about this planning or preparation thing. Ha, yes and what has happened has happened and is the evidence that something is amiss.

Want a biblical example? Look, had Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, been tossed into the fiery furnace unprepared to meet the potential outcome, they would have perished. Oh, but you might say, yes Podcast Preacher but they would have been with God in Heaven. And I say, in advance of their prescribed time to be there, yes they would have. And but what would the cost have been insofar as their ministry being unfulfilled? The cities people would not have gotten saved, the decree that there is only One God to be worshipped would not have gone out. Their promotions in order that they could continue the work of God, would not have happened, and instead, a small crew in total bewilderment of such an event would have been pulled together to clean out the furnace: let’s get heated up on the thing.

No I say, but he is dead, and but I am speaking from one of his sermons that is more than necessary even for our right now days. It has to be a God thing to know that after you die and go home to be with the Lord, that the messages that He has given you, live on past your time here on earth. I hope the same for my messages, but that privilege I leave up to the Lord.

So today is going to be like a strong cup of coffee in that we are going to take the beans and grind them to a literal pulp, to a fine powder like flour, and then we are going to throw it into a pot of boiling water and leave it in there until all the coffeeness is boiled out of that fine powder. Then we're going to take it, put it in a cup, a tin cup is often good enough to help one enjoy this type of coffee, and we're then going to drink it, to which it will taste like silky water.

But what I have just described is the Born-again experience, and like the bean that has to be completely and totally destroyed to extract its purpose, Jesus was the only one that could go through the process whereby salvation could be extracted.

Is 52:13-14 - Behold, My Servant shall [b]deal prudently;
He shall be exalted and [c]extolled and be very high.
14 Just as many were astonished at you,
So His visage[d] was marred more than any man,
And His form more than the sons of men;

But then in God's wisdom, his heart, his whole purpose for creating humanity, was that we could by choice, and the actions that we do which helps us to look exactly like his son Jesus Christ, it's like the drinking of silky water. And but this occurs only if you understand the value and privilege of being chased down by God Himself:

John 15:16 - 16 You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.

What is the math on this? Hummm, Well, ok so if you are the one day a week church goer then there is a reasonable probability that you attend church 15-hrs and 40-min of church per year. Now I will not go into the types of messages that you can expect to hear or that you do hear, as most are evangelistic in nature and less about your growing into the fullness of Christ. And so for impact or comparison we should but need to compare the typical American, oh and wait, that 15-hrs only counts if you attend every Sunday, even through Football, baseball, basketball, hockey, bowling, and fishing season. Ok so the disciples of Jesus spend quite a bit of time with Jesus learning and doing Christianity. We can expect they were with Him always as He told them to follow Him when He called them to well…follow Him. Ha, no but really I didn’t know how else to say that (Matt 4:19). So, without any intention of exaggeration, let’s assume they were with Him solid for about 3-yrs:

Luke 3:23 – Now Jesus Himself began His ministry at about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, the son of Heli,

Based on the number of Passover’s it is assumed that He ministered for about 3 to 3.5 years. We will use 3-yrs to you know to avoid any intention of exaggeration. I will start their days at 6:00am and let them go until about 11:00pm. Why because Jesus did many other things that are not written and included in the bible so we have to allot for time in order for the many other things right (John 20:30, 21:25)? We are also going to allow for 7-days a week of ministry because there were no unions at that time and, ha, no it is because He is Lord of the Sabbath and He did minister on the Sabbath as proven throughout the Word of God (Matt 12:8, 10, John 5:10).

What could your life be like if you were willing to change. No but let’s not do burnouts in the rain here. This is that! This is what makes all, all, yes every bit and all the difference between where you are at and where you could be.

So now let’s fast forward to the end of your life for a minute. What would have had to happen for you to believe with everything in you that you have done what you were created to do. Yes, since this is a Podcast for the authentically born-again believer, you must know that you know that you know that God created you for a plan and for His purpose:

Ps 33:10-11 - The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect. The counsel of the Lord stands forever, The plans of His heart to all generations.

He knows exactly how He gifted you, what talents you have, and how you are use them and where you are to apply your efforts.

Pro 19:21 - There are many plans in a man’s heart, Nevertheless the Lord’s counsel—that will stand.

Pro 16:9 - A man’s heart plans his way, But the Lord directs his steps.

He is in control but only if we give it to Him right?

So with so many listeners I think it's time I help with some of the names that I use for the ministry. This won't take long but it will be helpful for the many many new listeners that I'm getting every day. We are now as of January 23, 2025 in 60 countries, and 362 cities. This is the data from just Buzzsprout one of 30 platforms.

So Deep Waters is the name of the podcast. Buzzsprout is the primary platform, and it is one of 30 platforms. some of the more popular names, or platforms is my YouTube channel at podcast preacher, iHeartRadio, Pinterest, Twitter, linkedIn, Tumblr, Rumble and Vimeo. I have several of the more popular ones accessible through my website appliedstrengthsministry.org Deep Waters came to my sister and I, she is a member of the board, because she really thought that the messages or more complex than you would hear at a church today, and which is really designed to help a person grow which is the heartbeat of the ministry. I don’t preach for sugar in the ear but for what God wants people to hear.

So what is it to know an invisible God? And can we really say that He was or is invisible when He came down as a Man-God in the suit of Jesus? And to take it a step further can we say even if that was necessary, you know coming down as a Man-God for us to believe, when He manifested Himself so much in the bible? Look at the miracles, signs, and wonders that occurred in the Old Testament. I could write a book on them but that is not the point of this message.

Have you heard that you can have a personal relationship with God? Have you heard that you can have a personal relationship with Jesus? Ha, how about this question. Do you know what it is to have a personal relationship with God? I mean you know that I know that God and Jesus are the same God, one in the flesh, that is that God hovered over Mary by way of His Holy Spirit, and planted Himself in her that He might enter into humanity, in order to allow us to know Him, but also that we would murder Him. Ha, how many messages are in just that statement?

How do we have a relationship with God is the point of this message, and I hope that you will do everything in your power to understand all of the revelation that will be herewith in it.

I have done messages on knowing God before, but as always, it seems as though I must do a revision so that well because I cannot find the other one to revise. But, and well no but, but, doing multiple messages on the same or near the same subject is like reading the bible over again. Unlike if you mine a 9-square foot of land for gold, and then go back and do it again, and then again, getting less and less gold, this is not so when you read your bible. In fact the opposite is true because when you first read it you get milk-level understanding or revelation, go again so many times and then you get bread-level understanding or revelation, and go again more times, yes more times than just one more time, and you get meat-level understanding. And each of these levels only increases as you allow the revelation to change and equip you. You must move for it to move. And well since we are hear for a minute, each level, milk, bread, meat has three levels within it, babies, young people, and then like me older people. Ha, no but that is just what I have found to make sense. And but again the time to move through each of these things is dependent on your humility and efforts to allow God to bring you along in your walk.

95% of those who consider themselves smart have no idea just how dumb they are if they indeed reject God. I am not sure if this number isn’t really 100%, but I was trying to be kind.

Now statements like this only come off offensive or hurtful if this is true in your life. As always, we must identify the problem before we move to solve it. And well but Jesus made telling the truth a very famous thing because it set some free and it offended others. Not everyone will be in a position to hear or want to hear the truth. It’s just the way it is. I have many messages on these things so I won’t go into them here.

Now so but I was one of those who did not want to hear about God for 33-yrs of my life. And but look at me now. I can’t stop telling as many people as I can about how silly I every was to not consider Him, considering the alternative answers to getting into heaven, as the One and only God who legitimately had the only plan and is the only One who Himself paved the only road leading to Salvation with His own blood.

I was thinking about this the other day which is that every child ever born on this planet believes in God. Why so then or how do we end up not believing in Him? Ha, other people in whom we think are smarter than us, talk us out of such fantasies, or perhaps, one or the other parent was abusive and all into sin no matter what and so you went the same way of that wayward parent or parents. Did you know that in every generation we literally have millions of kids who follow their parents sinful lifestyles and leave their belief in God for the things of the world:

Ex 34:7 - keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and the children’s children to the third and the fourth generation.”

I am currently working on a message titled “Dumb Smart Or Smart Dumb Equals Dumb Anyway” and was nearly done with it, and then decided to take a little reading break to read a message given by a well known and very accurate prophet. It’s like my going to church and but hearing what I need in order to grow without having to leave my home. Something I would recommend that all of my listeners do, but well if you are listening then you are attending the same “services” that I am, bless God! So, in the spirit of flowing in the Holy Spirit we shift for a minute and get to the crash dummy message later.

I am going to split the message into two parts because well it is a lot for us Christians to handle in one big gulp. And they are distinct enough that I really want to leave room for my input and commentary without having to worry about going into a five hour message. I am not even sure I would want to listen to me on my best day for that long. Ha, but now don’t ask anyone who may have had the pleasure of getting caught up in one of my never-ending messages going about a furlong deep.

Nevertheless, this message like the next is very heavy meaning that because we are in such a shape as a church that we are in, getting any kind of mind and spirit breakthrough will be no less easier than it was for Christopher Columbus to try and convince the population of his days that the earth wasn’t flat. I believe that it is even safe to say it is the same spirit working in both of these situations. Ha, so much for hard and stingy, I haven’t even gotten into the message and it already sounds strong. Well but in truth, and keep in mind I am not preaching from Mars pointing my boney finger at anyone on earth as if I am far removed from the corrections of these messages. You have already heard me say that I teach you and me aways.

Ok its official, that there is the longest message title I have ever heard or prepared. Ha, ha, I’m going to have trout dinner. Ha, but this is funny as it is almost longer than the message.

Ok so this is going to be another great message, and you already know that I think that they are all great insofar as I allow God to speak through me. Ah, now don’t get all jibby jabby with that, and think I am telling you something that is only unique to me. You too can allow God to speak through your lips once you decide you would need to for that to happen. No worries it is a journey of much aching and pleading. Ha, what no Podcast Preacher I just want it to happen. Nope, God has to train to stop talking long enough for Him to get a word in edgewise, and folks because we are human, this takes a bit of a season. I cannot give you a specific length of time as that is between you and God, but trust me you will need to press to get there. And when you do, even more of the worldly appetites will go away. There is no feeling or experience to know that God just used you to help someone, and that you did it while speaking God-words to do so.

This message is not so much for my Podcaster’s who are authentically born-again, but is something that just dropped on me as an important message to pass along to the massive crowds of spiritually blind peeps. Yes, they are arrogant and proud of their God ignorance. So be it, they represent the white harvest and every generation has to deal with both the pond of potential or future wheat and tares.

In a past message I gave an example of three circles as representing the places that humanity is at. Look at them like three unlimited in size barrels that hold humanity. We are all born into the 1st barrel which represents all sinners. And like it or not we are all born into sin. The second barrel represents the Bride Christians who get authentically saved. And well the third barrel of human fish represents the back-slidden Christians, those who rejected salvation having once been in barrel number two, and satans kids. Now the following scriptures may seem a bit doomy and gloomy but God gave them to us because He knows our make up in that we are just but dirt.

The following scriptures identify those species of fish:

Pro 14:14 - The backslider in heart will be filled with his own ways, But a good man will be satisfied from above...

Well as promised I will be sharing another sermon preached originally by John G Lake back in the early 1900’s.

We should pay attention to this message now considering that beginning back in the days when the Catholic church was turning quickly away from God, setting aside the purity and the necessity of the Holy Spirit to do the will of the Father. You see the Holy Spirit is not given to support your agenda. Every powerless church is evidenced of that truth. Abd but you see once they continued on with the churchy organization without the Holy Spirit, it is like they got mad and simply stated or really what they did was to out and out reject the Holy Spirit, saying things like well He is not for todays church, or the miracles, signs, and wonders are not for today. What was really happening is that because they were not operating in these things they tried to simply come up with some other reason, other than pure rebelling against God and blaspheming His Spirit, as to why these things are not for today. They perverted the scripture just like satan did with Eve and tada we are at the garden scene all over again.

So but it is not hopeless as long as we continue to teach on the truth of the bible. John G Lake operated in the Holy Spirit in immeasurable ways changing the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. That is a lot of witnesses to the fact that the Holy Spirit is for today.

Heb 13:8 - 8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Now we know that all of these things that I will be mentioning, Jesus said, while He was still on this planet. So it begs to reason that we should stop and think about what it means. Nope, we shouldn’t try and interpret what it means least we explain it away as hubbub. And 2 Timothy 3:16 tells us that there is no hubbub in the bible. Ha.

So why explore such statements Podcast Preacher? Of all of the things mentioned in the bible why look into these types of things, I mean it won’t help people to know God in the least. Ha, nope, but it will help them know God in the least because we want to know all, not only the milk level things but the meat level things in the bible. Oh, I want to know and to see what Moses saw while supping with God on the mountain. And yes he wasn’t eating earthy food but facing timing God Himself (Ex 24, 33:12-23). And well since I am in the I want mood, I would also like to see and to hear what Paul heard as stated in 2 Corinthians 12:1-4. Well I am still in the I want what they had mood so I would also like to see the voice as John did in Revelation 1:10-12, and I am not talking about the TV program. Ha, and so well maybe some finishing desert would be in order and we could perhaps see a bit of what Daniel saw in some of his visions as discussed in Daniel chapters 7 thru 10, and but in truth we are seeing some of those very visions coming to pass in these last days. So ya, this message is necessary to evoke some spiritual curiosity in your hearts and minds so that as more and more revelation comes through these messages and lands in your hearts and minds that the cares of this world would vaporize and the result would be an ever increasing and active faith to do the works of Jesus in our generation.

John 8:16 - 16 And yet if I do judge, My judgment is true; for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent Me.

Ok so I was thinking a bit about how that I might be doing too many messages for people to keep up, which I kind of expected considering this has been the story of my life. No I am not boasting but laying down a truth foundation for your assistance and my confirmation that I am indeed not posting too many messages for anyone to keep up, but that there is something else going on.

Yes, it’s a message before the message but it did pop up into my mind and spirit so let’s address the gigabyte in the room. I was thinking about the overproduction of messages and then as I was doing so, I thought about how churches do well church, whereby they usually give about a 20 to 30-min message once a week and sent the starving sheep on their way into a dry field.

Then and but thank God for the but then moment. I was thinking about the apostles and how they attended the church of Jesus Christ for months on end, even many of them traveling and living with Him when He was on the road. This was church 7-days a week. Of course I know you have to work and so this schedule may not work for you, but what else are you doing with the rest of your time that helps you to grow spiritually or helps you to shrink increasingly. A daily message is actually not anywhere near to what those apostles got to get. Nope, all day hear, do, hear, do, watch, do, hear, watch, pray, do, do, do.

Is it any wonder why they turned the world upside down and we today cannot turn a leaf over? No,no,no come on we are all in this together.

It’s the American style of church which came from the Roman Catholic church which is the once a week stuff. Well some do a midweek bible study and others even throw in a well I am not sure what they throw in. I don’t think the American style of church is working. The condition of this nation points squarely to that. We need to square some things up in this next year as I fear many, many Christian casualties due to an over-whelming spiritual attack on this country. Well, I will leave that for now and get to the regularly broadcasted message.

So my wife and I had a couple of contractors who had been working on the house and one morning feeling compelled to engage them with God beyond the usual Podcasting talk, I had asked God how I could engage them without offending them. Contrary to some of my podcasts and how they might come off, I do like to create an open dialog with people especially if I do not know where they stand with God.

I did hear from some friends about how one of the guys, the owner of the company, how he likes to help people. He is always going about helping those who seem to have no other recourse. I wasn’t sure of his employee but I did notice one day as I was making him some coffee that he seemed to be open to the discussion.

Anyway, I was praying for the plan of God when He said, and well He often times talks in pictures, and if you don’t think that, that is a mess of a way to communicate to us simply humans you haven’t heard Him with one of His Picasso talks. Ha, it is like in a flash you get 50-pages of information that you understand all at once. And as in my Podcast, I then have to spend the next bit of time working out what He just said and start to unpack the picture. It is glorious in that He shows you the picture of language, gives you the understanding of the entire picture all at once and yet you are through Him able to see all of the parts in such a way that it is not overwhelming or confusing, and then He brings into remembrance all that He had shown you. Time wise it took Him less than one second to drop the bit of communication down into your spirit, and for you it sometimes takes the rest of the day to unpack its meaning. But in this case there were just a couple of things He wanted me to say. The first was to invite them to participate in my podcast by answering a question.

So I have posted and done messages on when we were having some sort of major wind event in Paradise that how I had prayed and that the wind had stopped. I used to just listen to the trees drop all around my house, but in growing spiritually I came across a scripture whereby had the apostles of Jesus not woke Jesus up as He was resting peaceably on His my pillow we may be reading about Jesus apostles with different names. I know Jesus wasn’t going to allow that but flow if you will as we can be sure a lack of spiritual maturity and pray has allowed things to happen on this earth that God had not intended. I can just see Him standing by His wall mounted phone, yup wall mounted, just waiting for the prayers of His saints to come and address some specific event that was happening on earth so that He could act.

Well so, and I will include the scriptures that support the binding of the spirits which are most often behind the natural chaos that occurs on this planet. Let’s lay the foundation bless God!

1 John 5:19 - We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.

So we, well even many in the Christian church, elected Jello politicians that to be frank needed to be put in place, so that when a time of wisdom is needed, the event would demonstrate that those we put in place, the God denying non-God-fearing politicians, would find themselves lacking the basic requirements to handle these current events. 2016 was made public so as to demonstrate this very thing. We have put so much faith in our Democratic system, that we left God in the hallways believing we could handle things ourselves. Let’s see how we are doing.

Now what we see today with the fires of California is not due to a series of events, no more than a war is due to a series of events. Yes, there is a series of events that occur, both public which is often times a false and controlled narrative, and those events which happen behind closed doors. And but there is a more sinister series of events which is the real reason that the public event happens which in this case is the fire. We who are not plugged into the Light only have the worldly or demonic wisdom to assess what has happened. Nope, it usually will be absent of all of the truth. Remember, in the garden satan used a partial truth to deceive Eve, same as he does today. He got her on her sensual desire to be smart and he does and will continue to get those who have this innate desire to be known as a smart and wise person. Ha, no new tricks for the human race.

James 3:15-16 - 15 This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic. 16 For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there.

Well as promised I will be sharing a sermon preached originally by John G Lake back in the early 1900’s. Wait Podcast Preacher it’s the message irrelevant considering how much we have advanced as a nation? I mean look at all the tall buildings we have and the technology that we have; why we have the state of the art hospitals, massive disease control facilities, pills for whatever ails mankind and animal alike. And insurance, oh boy do we have insurance, an insurance that makes being sick and diseased so much more comfortable in that the stress of financial collapse is not an additional worry that I have to consider.

Oh now see we will pay attention to this message now considering that the sickest of humans, those with diseases that kill its prey, those with no insurance, and the many others who lived a life in dread of the next day, were delivered with a word from the man of God. And don’t say well he was special in Gods eyes and that is why he was moving in such power. Nope, he was available to God so that God could use him. He wasn’t dissuaded or thrown off guard by the unbelieving church denominations, he just went about setting people free from the oppression of the devil. All of what he did you can do. It is not skill based, not talent based, not brain based, not money based, not popularity based, not education based, not athletic based, not location based, not genetic based, not party affiliation based, not dry church based, not denominational, denominational, or Catholic standing based. Doesn’t matter what car you drive, how plump you are, how much of a sinner you are or were. Doesn’t matter if you are in a physical prison, if you work for Government, if you are teaching 2nd graders. Nope, the only thing that matters is if you are authentically born again and have accepted all of the benefits come from God.

As I was typing up a message long about midnight January 07 or so, I began to hear some noises which sounded a lot like a flock of Buffalo shooting right through the property. No, they weren’t shooting guns but rather it sounded like a really close flyby to my office. I recalled that the weather peeps had stated that there was a wind to pick up later the next day and figured given their accuracy in predictions that maybe yesterday was now. So I got up and went outside fully expecting flying Buffalo. Nope, but I did see 180 foot tall trees bending to the intense winds.

So I decided when I couldn’t sleep after I had finished a book and was up until about 3am, well because I couldn’t sleep, and well because you know why. Hey Podcast Preacher why all the sleeplessness, is something wrong? Nope, I am fully rested and when I am tired I take the dreaded cat nap for a minute or twenty, and I am sure I will be up all night. Now don’t mistake this as a complaint or that the reason that I am telling you is because to be a good Christian you have to be able to lose sleep. Ha, I am retired so I hold no schedule other than to work on the ministry as time permits. I know that it is God because truly I am not tired even if I slept only 2-hrs in the last couple of days. And but don’t think I am boasting either because if God weren’t in it I could not nor would I want to be awake as many as 22-hrs a day at times. And so but just a break before we get into this message. The result is that I wrote, edited, recorded and posted since November 19th, 28-messages up to January 07, 2025. If you are not aware that’s a lot of teaching goods.

I did mention that I would be increasing my posts now that I am retired, and so but I did not think that God would rightly get behind me and make sure I would have the time to do so, but He did. And but what I enjoy about he and I is the time that I get to spend with Him. Nothing compares to Him.

I am working on a couple of messages one titled “signs” and the other “So what’s in a loaf”, and but also decided after reading another William Branham recorded sermon that it would be good to hear what’s in it. What is amazing and perhaps there are others out there who leave the same message legacy, is that the sermons that Williams has done are still relevant to today’s crowd and culture. The same issues they had in the 20’s, 30’s, 40,50, and 60’s are the same issues we have today only they of course are exponentially worse.

What is amazing is that God saved people out of those generations. Many by massive miracles, signs, and wonder tent events. In William Branham’s ministry alone over a million people were saved. The power of God was flowing over this globe like the Valdez oil spill did in Alaska. 11-million gallons of anointing, can you imagine it. Ha, but no fun poked at the disaster, but just bringing a close comparison to the manifestations of God that were happening in such a short amount of time. There was serious active Holy Spirit activity happening from about 1859’s to about 1910. Yes of course we had some flare up’s such as the hippy thing beginning around 1960 and going through to around 1970. The Vinyard move of God started in the 1970’s as well. But nothing in comparison to the revival in Ireland in 1859 known as the Ulster Revival. And well then there is the Azusa Street Revival beginning around 1906 and going til about 1915. We also had the Welsh Revival which went from 1904 to 1905. Some say there were about 100,000 authentic converts. There were others that I had not read much about but you can Google for a list of them.

What ails the world these days is on the Christian Church. Meaning we are responsible and will be held responsible. Just the same thing as if we were given a responsibility at work to perform, and for whatever reason we chose something different. We will be held accountable by our boss, and so it is the same thing with spiritual things right? You see because all things are possible to those who believe, and we have an arsenal of weapons through the operation of miracles signs and wonders through the dynamite power of the Holy Spirit that Jesus blessed us with and gifted to every authentically born again believer, there is nothing that can stand before our words, nothing that can stand against a love filled and faith filled Christianity that by a word cannot and will not be instantaneously pulverized. I say again we can speak and decree anything into existence or out of existence as long as God is in it. What power. If the governments knew that we had this available to every authentically born-again Christian they would require a spiritual weapons permit and a two year training course. Ha….God has given us His power to destroy the works of the enemy. The government doesn’t have the capacity or capability to solve these problems of today. There is no men in black agency that will come to our rescue, there is no Ghost Busters coming round the corner when she comes, because you are that ghost buster. Satan I adjure you to let that person go in Jesus name and whatever addiction that had them chained to the bottom of hell melts away in and through the fire of God.

So, I was watching a Street Preacher in a YouTube short video who was being asked a question by a person who was living an alternative lifestyle attending the parade that he was at. This individual had given him their spiritual resume which is usually something to the effect of, “I grew up in church so I know what I'm talking about”, or, “I know the bible so you can’t pull one over on me”, or “that’s not in the bible anywhere” which has so far by my accounts been proven a statement which is 100% wrong. In fact, all of them are wrong but we you that in advance of attending these types of events. Anyway, considering that these excuses are reactive defensive responses (RDR’s), ha, coming from or intended to hide the fact that we are indeed in sin and just don’t want anyone to point it out. which is well, often times not the case, and so this person then proceeded to ask him, the street preacher, if he had ever considered that what he was doing, which is preaching before an entire group at a parade living an alternative lifestyle, if that it is wrong to do so, and that, one day he might just get an epiphany and become embarrassed for preaching the gospel at those types of events in the manner that he is doing so.

In Hebrews 13:8 it states, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.”

So before I get into the original reason for doing this spontaneous message, and I say spontaneous because I am working on so many others, but cannot as of yet bring them to completion, I wanted to bring something up. Yes, that something is this little thing that happens to me on the regular, and I know you already know what I mean which is that because I am Gods favorite, He constantly reveals His secrets to me of which before He did I never did see or know. Ha, I believe that we are all His favorites, by using the word all, you know I mean His Bride Church, not the fakers or make believers, but His very own that He indeed is soon coming back to this very earth for.

Now so but before I present the easter egg, I want to slightly outline what the original message is going to be about. I recently read a book, ha and I say ha because God is always pushing me in and through His love like no one else can, to be of the best service that I can. Listen, and maybe it is because I have gone just so far with Him, but I cannot go to awful long in a minute without thinking about Him and about my purpose in Him which is to Podcast messages out to a very lost and dying world which includes His beloved Laodicean church. I don’t go but a bit of time after completing one message before I am thinking about the next or 12-nextes messages. I do wish that I could keep up with the revelation that he pours right through me. The scripture that comes to mind is the bubbly water one:

John 7:37 - He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.”

It truly is living water teaming with His life, teaming with His revelation, teaming with His Word because, and it has to be this way, but He, the Word, the scripture, Father God, the holy Spirit, is Jesus Christ. Now see how round-about this statement will connect with the easter egg revelation found in Hebrews 13:8.

Ok so I came back up top to the message because well it took off on me and after getting into it a minute, I could see that, for example, in this next session instead of assigning you to look up so many scriptures, of which a few of you will do it, but even in so doing you might lose the context of what I was saying. Passing time has a way of doing that, so at the risk of making this a longee message instead of my initially intended shorty, I will break down this first paragraph and add and read the scripture that I think ares applicable to what I am saying in the paragraph. I, in reading it several times, can see how some of these scriptures can apply to more than one type of believer category that I have discussed, and I can also see that there are more scriptures that I could add to each one especially from the Old Testament, but so that this doesn’t end up becoming the longest message I ever did in history, I will stick to what I have, as it ought to be sufficient to make the point. I also ask in advance to disregard some of the repetition and simply seek for more revelation than you may have gotten when you heard it the first time.

Is there any other Christians or believers other than a bride Christian? Yes, fake-believers that is false teachers and prophets (2 peter 2/Matt 7:15), false apostles (2 Cor 11:5), and false christs (Matt 24:24). We also have make-believers which can be religiously deceived like the Pharisee believers (Matt 22:29, Mark 12:24, John 5:39). We then have the wide path believers (Matt 7:13-14). The unforgiving believer (Matt 6:14-15, John 20:30). The walk-away believers (Heb 6:4-6, 1 Tim 4:1-3). The once enlightened believer (Rom 1). The blaspheming believer (Mark 3:29, Luke 12:10). The hater believers (1 John 2:9, 11, 3:15, 4:20). Those who believe that denominational/non-denominational or Catholic doctrine which is contrary to the bible believer (Rom chap 1, 2 Peter 2, 2 Cor 11:4, Gal 1:6, 2 John 10:11). The I am a Christian no matter what you think believer (2 Tim 3:1-7). The devil and his demon believers (James 2:19, 1 John 3:12, John 8:36-47). The non-Holy Spirit filled believers (2 Cor 11:4, Gal 1:6, 2 John 10:11, Matt 12:31-32). And all of every bit of anything every created by God that is non-human believers (the whole creation groans (Rom 8:22).

So, I don’t know how these things come to me the way that they do but I do know that God is the sender. I was thinking about how it is that we have so many things that a Christian can access to aid in their growth, and more than ever it is so much easier to access via cellphones, tablets, computers, and TV’s to name a few. If I were so inclined, and I am not, I could read every version or translation of the bible from my couch. Even in my day, yes in my day if I wanted to try a different translation of the bible, or get another replacement for the current version that somehow becomes no longer usable, ha, then I would have to clean up, get dressed, get into the car, drive to a bible selling store, browse to my hearts content, and purchase the one that I liked. Yes, sometimes this event could take a good part of the day, especially where I lived in SoCal. You planned ahead for anything requiring a drive.

Now you can use the YouVersion app, or Biblegateway.com, or a number of other software or hardware measures. My first time going paperless was in the use of a Franklin handheld bible. Ha, it only had the contents of one bible. You could not copy and paste, nor send to anywhere. All data stayed put within the devise. We definitely live in a different world today, one which has eliminated any excuse for being a dead Christian due to doing nothing to help yourself get to know God. Perhaps this shorty message can help in such times as these.

In June 28, 2022 we launched out on a Word. Yup, it was God speaking through three different people that I should teach the bible. And He confirmed that, well but only after 25 yrs or so of laboring in all kind of Christian manner, working in just about every ministry that I can think of, and but yet not really hitting that, you know that this is what God has called and created me to do thing. And so but if you think that God is in a hurry, considering all that is going on in these days, Nope. But also now that I am in it, I cannot keep up with the messages that He is giving me. If you think it is easy being, for example a teacher in the Ephesians sense, think about seeing, hearing, or watching anything that is seeable, hearable, or watchable getting a pile of messages from that. Oh, and don’t think that you get a break when you sleep, oh no I dream of messages, have visions of messages, why even when I am working on messages, I get other messages from that message. And no I do not ignore them and shew them away like flies as anyone of them can lead a listener to freedom and spiritual maturity so I take each and every one of them very seriously believing that they represent a word from the Lord. Now this is how I ended up with almost 400 messages in my Q just waiting for the full revelation of what God wants to say. In a couple more months I will when you consider the messages waiting to become podcast messages and those that are already messages, the number will exceed 1000. No biggie unless you consider the timeframe in which this flood of info has occurred. But you can see the timeframe will be less than 3-years. Everything in these days that I live is a potential message and I believe it will be so until He takes me home. So now 25-years of prep doesn’t sound so bad when you consider the harvest of messages and their potential to turn the world upside down. And that my friends is where you come in, but lets get on down the road before we address that.

Tada, that is the longest title of a message ever. But, we should spiritually buckle up because God has something to say and I think we should stay for the whole message. Now after listening to this longee, you might be thinking that I should have broken it up, as well as I, meaning and I was just trying to save some words there but it makes no sense, I was also thinking of doing that but then I thought about how other effective ministers and ministries always seem to preach in smorgasbord style, and thought since I am wired the same way, and now that I am also including a lot more shorter messages, I can post a longee from time to time. And but all silliness aside, I go in my messages until I feel a release to continue. All of us see through a glass darkly and sometimes we just grope along as best we can after all He and we are different in many ways. Yes, he dwells in me but you wouldn’t always know it by some of the decisions I make. Ok so let’s move into the intro:

Listen to how we are missing it today in our churches, and now I am talking about the body of humans that are supposed to be set apart and so different from those in the world. Oh, we try so hard to be like them, that is the unsaved, thinking that they will somehow be drawn to God in consideration that they wouldn't have to change that much. See you can still wear gobs of makeup, perfume, very revealing shirts, tops, And blouses, and pants so tight that if they were the exact color of your skin, it would look as if you weren't wearing any and all, you can swear from time to time you know to emphasize whatever it is that your saying ( I do this sometimes), you can keep almost all of the habits you had before because well now you are under grace, and well wowzy I can be spiritual and remain mostly unchanged. Oh, whoever knew. And all to the Glory of God see. Nope, my sarcasm comes from todays frustration that I still in this very hour hear people say in the entirety of their lives so messed up that not one insect from Gods created earth would want to exchange their existence for yours, ha a bug joke, don’t hear that every day, no but seriously, my heart wrinkles up as I hear the deception pour out of their faces. And but this isn’t even the real problem, nope the real problem is that you cannot tell them anything contrary to what they believe.

Ah, bet you didn’t figure this tile out. Well but so but if you did good on you because you are the 1%’ers.

So I was triggered to use a democratic/socialistic parody coined and acted out travesty, as I thought about us. Yes I was thinking about the bride body of Christ. The Bride Church and not those other guys. And but it is the other guys that probably motivate me to the ends of the earth to preach on the things that they don’t. Yes, those in opposition to as our courts make you say:

Do you swear that the evidence you shall give to the court in this matter shall be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth [so help you God?]

I have never heard one person say no. I am into statistics and sometimes wonder just how many people lied after saying that to God. Nope, not at all as I was a sinner too. You see even the devil himself wouldn’t say no and many would believe his testimony. Oh yes, the religious of the day, the pastors, deacons, and elders along with many of the lay peeps believed the devil about Jesus hook, line, and sinker. No worries if you are Catholic they fell pray to the devils lies shortly after round 300-years after Jesus’s death. Martin Luther can tell you all about it along with his many friends. Oh wait, the church killed them. Well some survived least we all be in heaven or hell 1500 years ago.

I’m a little feisty right now you know me I will get to the point.

Hello and good day. As you know I am a proponent of Gods miracles, signs, and wonders which include deliverance from demons that cause illness and disease. There is nothing beyond God. Pretty simple right? So this is a little mini message, as I have to many biggies I am currently working on, so I don’t want to turn it into a grand message as I know that you think that they all are. Hey, well if I am anointed to teach, and the Holy Spirit is leading me in terms of what to say, then all of these messages are truly spiritually life changing. And but well if your spiritual life changes then your natural life changes as well. You see I just can stop myself.

Ok let’s get to it…

Now if you were to say, “hey Podcast Preacher you cannot spell”, you would be correct in many cases, but not in this case. Let me show you.

What is a Ternity door? Well, it's a door that represents time on one side and eternity on the other. But this is not a message so much about the door as it is about the fact that each and every one of us is going to have a sleep or a nap up against that door right before we fall through it. Down here in time we call it the death event. And so as we are getting ready to take a nap in heaven, we are sleeping up against that door, and when all of our parts meaning our spirit and soul, except our flesh, leaves us and goes off into eternity, The flesh part of us remains in the natural, it stays on the time side of the door. It is what goes back to the very dust in which it came.

When we understand that death is really nothing more than a transition from time to eternity, this ought to bring great joy into our souls and spirit. Why you might ask? Because, I don't know of anybody here on the planet, no matter how much money, power, prestige, or fame that they have or had, will stay on earth for all of eternity. In essence you do not want to be here anyway when God wraps things up:

2 Peter 3:10-12 - 10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. 11 Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, 12 looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?

Well its time once again to go to a story about William Branham. No it will not be a full message out of one of his preaches, but a short testimony about how God got him turned around in his life so that he would fall in line with the will of God. Now, after hearing this story you might could come away with some kinda feeling that God isn’t a nice God after all. And but I would caution you against that because we would only come to that conclusion out of ignorance as to our relationship with Him

So each of us is in a different place insofar as our relationship with God. The different place meaning that we are more intimate and experienced with Him and His ways or we are less intimate and experienced with His ways. If you read Numbers chapter 12 and chapter 16 you will see that surely there is a difference in our relationships. You could also see it in 2 Corinthians 12:2 when Paul was sharing about a particular experience he had:

2 Cor 12:2 - 2 I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago—whether in the body I do not know, or whether out of the body I do not know, God knows—such a one was caught up to the third heaven.

Now outside of Enoch who went along with Elisha and never came back, Paul left this rock and came back, but that is not the really cool part if you consider that God dwells in the third heaven. How much more cooler is that when you have that bit of information. And what did Paul see?

2 Cor 12:4 - 4 how he was caught up into Paradise and heard inexpressible words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.

So, the woman with the issue of blood, who by the way did not live with Jesus, so she only had His reputation to rely on, knew something about Jesus that His own family members did not know about.

No but this is crazy when you consider the greatly missed eternal opportunity that was with them under the same roof for all of those years. Getting to live with God, that is Jesus, for all of eternity, the same God who created everything that is anything, is a missed privilege made by so many these days, well I guess it would be accurate to say in all of history days it has been a missed opportunity, and but, what is phenomenally worse is the acceptance of the worst case scenario over and above the heavenly option.

And so but yes, we have people here who believe that we humans absent of God are a reliable source for making wise and prudent decisions.

Opting to go to hell when it is described in the Bible as the worse eternal decision a human can make is so far beyond stupid and foolish that one must ask, and yes you have to ask, no you should be compelled to ask, what is wrong with those who make that decision? Is it brain damage? A fool equates to someone who has phycological issues. Ok so let’s D-Com it so that I don’t look like a, well you get my drift...

Ok, Ok, Ok so this was really cool to come across as I was reading the book written by Gordon Lindsay in collaboration with William Branham titled “William Branham A Man Sent From God. It’s discussed on just a couple of pages, but like always as I was reading it I saw or was given a solid message on the idea of it. And oh well then I decided to title the idea of it as the title of message. Listen to it comparatively as you think about how it isn’t any different today then it was back when this was stated by Moses and in the book of Judges:

Deut 12:8 - 8 “You shall not at all do as we are doing here today—every man doing whatever is right in his own eyes—

Judges 21:5 - In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes.

Ok so after I read the story, we will get back to the importance of hearing how God works the same today as Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Heb 13:8).

John 7:38 - He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water

Good morning Vietnam and all of the rest of the countries tuning into this Podcasts in hopes to not hear me but to hear from the Holy Spirit. Ha, yes that line was from an old Robin Williams moving and it just came to me as I was thinking about how to greet you. Of course its not a proper church opening but it works for me as a member of the bride church. No stanchy religious form here. I in no way am trying to look religious, I am trying to be, act, smell, sound, and do my religion. I just want to have, maintain, and ever grow in my wonderful relationship with my groom to be (Matt 25:1-10).

Now that’s a greeting which I hope finds you well no matter where you are listening.

Now after you get to the end of this message and you should be sure to do that, don’t be surprised if you think I missed the water mark. Ha, you know the title. Yes, this is what title I feel that God wanted to give me. The holy Spirit represents that water. The fact that you cannot keep quiet about God represents that water. No talkie bout Jesus, then you are a dry well and you will end up in a place that rhymes with that if you don’t catch what I just stated there.

So you know who got me up early and well I was again so very good with it because I took the time to muse upon Him, send a friend an early morning reflective of the times text, and to read a book about how it should be done today. Wait, what? What is IT? The function of the church. You see when I read about other ministries operating in miracles, signs, and wonders while also leading thousands to the lord, in part because of those supernatural things being done by God through His servants, I think wow why did that form of church stop in todays today? Yes I know, we have some doing it righty rightee, but have you seen anything lately whereby a few servants of the Lord show up and nearly, at its height, 100,000 people show up, in less, no, way less, than ideal conditions, waiting all, all, did I say all day, in the yuk weather, just to get a glimpse of Jesus working through His servants? And here is the invisible from today’s churches, the sick, maimed, mutilated, diseased, crippled, those who lost some of their natural capabilities like seeing, hearing, tasting, walking, talking, moving, oh my God no one who had anything so debilitating staid home when the opportunity for healing, and the evidence that it was happening, walked into town. No, they flew into the place that I am talking about which is Africa. Invalids and autism and missing limbs, or ear drums or eye balls, would scare many pastors in the America’s white as a Polar Bear if they showed up in their church and asked for the prayer of healing. No but if I am wrong then send me any testimony where this is happening. My email is podcastpreacher@appliedstrengthsministry.com

This is the message we get when I wake up at 4am and feel an unction. I guess we could say that it is an unction function. Ah, hey a little Sesame Street word rap right there. Ha, ha let’s do it.

So what happened to Judas when Satan entered his heart? He became anti anything God:

John 13:2-3 - 2 And supper being ended, the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray Him, 3 Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come from God and was going to God,

Yes, this very Judas who was casting out demons with those who were sent out, was now the habitation of one:

Luke 10:1-12,17 - 10 After these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two by two before His face into every city and place where He Himself was about to go. 2 Then He said to them, “The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest. 3 Go your way; behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves. 4 Carry neither money bag, knapsack, nor sandals; and greet no one along the road. 5 But whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’ 6 And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on it; if not, it will return to you. 7 And remain in the same house, eating and drinking such things as they give, for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house. 8 Whatever city you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you. 9 And heal the sick there, and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’ 10 But whatever city you enter, and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say, 11 ‘The very dust of your city which clings to us we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that the kingdom of God has come near you.’ 12 But I say to you that it will be more tolerable in that Day for Sodom than for that city…. And verse 17 - 17 Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.”

Well I have a couple of things regarding this message and maybe it should be two messages but just perhaps maybe I can do it in one.

I started this in the morning and then finished it in another morning around 2:27am. I am telling you I could not sleep any longer. And so be it, as I think we are nearing the end as it is no secret to you as to where I stand on that matter. The bible and the signs of the times would and do agree.

The first thing I want to address is that title. If you are dead to yourself, crucified in Christ and live in Him, then your old man is dead and your new man is alive in Him. This means that you no longer have the appetites of the old man because he is dead and dead things don't have appetites. And well your new man now has different appetites that your old man ever didn't have. Some of those appetites are non-sin appetites, but others are that you begin to have a deep desire to know and understand God. And as you move down the path of understanding what that looks like, that appetite grows very large helping to squeeze out any remaining appetite for the things of this world. This process is notably known as sanctification. Let’s look at the supporting scriptures:

Gal 2:20 - 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.

Well, good day and it’s always a good day when I get you report on the things of the ministry. If you are interested in treasures in heaven (Matt 6:19-21) and interested in the day when your works will be judged (Rev 20:12), then you may want to find out just how well we are doing in our ministry.

As always keep in mind that the statistics that I report are from just one source but that other sources pull the messages from this platform as well. So I am not sure but Buzzsprout may or may not count the download if it is not from Buzzsprout itself. Why is that important to know Mr. Podcast Preacher? Because when I share that we are on near 30 different platforms and that the message may go out through others sharing using their technology, we would not just assume that if we times the data we get from just Buzzsprout that we could just multiply it by thirty to get an accurate number.

Ok so it’s not like I don’t have 375 other messages just waiting in the Q so that the Holy Spirit can bring them to life, in addition to the many messages that drop into my spirit on a near daily basis. But then I decide to read the book written by William Branham titled Three Kinds Of Believers, and but we could say that it is a book, but it is really just a preach typed out for us who live outside of Williams time. Brilliant to record his messages so that they do not get lost to time and the great deceptions occurring in these very last days.

So after being woke up by the Holy Spirit at 12:30, which is not as strange when you understand that I was tired and went to bed at around 7:30pm. I mean at my age how much sleep do I really need anyway. Well apparently that is being decided for me and I am all good for it anyway because I get to do what I live to do. I would rather be preparing another podcast message which is as relevant today as it was when it was first preached than to do anything else. Oh yes, in my younger days I would have said “than almost anything else” but really in these days I have discovered that nothing is more important and urgent than to say to the remaining people that we just don’t have much time to make the proper decision as to the things of God, and the continuing to say that well you just don’t believe in this spiritual stuff is to deny the truth that you were actually born with:

Eccl 3:11 - He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end.

Your words aren’t enough because as I stated just now satan told Jesus what the bible stated.

Luke 4:1-13 - 4 Then Jesus, being filled with the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit [a]into the wilderness, 2 being [b]tempted for forty days by the devil. And in those days He ate nothing, and afterward, when they had ended, He was hungry.

3 And the devil said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.”

4 But Jesus answered him, saying, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.’ ”

Boom bing lets see how accurate satan quoted that scripture. And but while we are doing this, and of course we will find the defect in satans approach to using scripture, consider if you yourself are maybe not doing this yourself. I of course cannot have been the only one in and throughout my spiritual growth fell trap into also falling short on scripture quoting. It happens to the best of us, and no I am not the best of the best of us.

Ok so I have an advantage over you which is that I get to see the entire message beginning to end before you get to hear it, and I got to say that wow this is a powerful message. God makes me look good all the time. What a wonderful message this is to the bride of Christ and His obedient church. Pay close attention to the scripture references that I also included. Look them up because they too are an important part of the complete revelation of this message. Study this bad boy to grow and grow you will if you do study this thing out. I am now getting ready to record and wow I must take a break just to settle down from all of the revelational anointing. Well, actually I just want to get a snack. Ha here we go.

I was up this morning and was praying and worshiping God and thinking about the elements of warfare going on in my life as well as those things taking place all over the earth, and yes of course to bring it home, right here in America. Our recent political process reminded me of every and all the things that take place in 10th a graders life. It’s like our nation has lost any semblance of maturity and politeness.

What’s happening to us should be the cry of every heart that knows God. The others don’t see what’s going on. They are usually caught up in the greatest spin doctor to have every been created. Yes, satan has them all wrapped around his finger. And yes much of the church is also singing the same song. Rev chapter three tells us this. Specifically in verse 17:

17 Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked—

After three shorty messages, its time for another piece of pie in the sky revelation from William Branham. My next after this will be another one of my own. Yes, I am currently sharing my platform with a dead man who generated living messages that are so way alive today, that most people when they hear them still do not have a slot for all of the revelation that is contained within. I say this not to be some kind of spiritual bully, but I know how the devil works as we used to, just like you do today, invite him into our services. Ha, no such this is the church ever to house non-believers. It is the house of God that is for believer and those being saved to do the work of Jesus for each other and on each other. The non believer just brings in his or her demon friend who is simply looking for the ways to infiltrate the religious system and bring it to nothing. Oh no he will leave the building in tact as long as you want to continue to play church. You will not effect the kingdom of darkness without the Holy Spirit at all so continue to have your circuses and promise the world to those in whom will eventually discover that you yourself don’t even have the promise. Sorry, I just feel like there is so much pushback in the face of the truth. All of what I say can be found in the bible or I am just a big fat liar. You can refer to my message titled, “The Voice Of The Sign by William Branham”, for more information on the why I am using his material in this short season.

I feel like I want to teach a bit on being single minded as you enter the presence of God or are seeking Him for whatever reason. During your time of seeking or visiting Him as He likes visitors avoid praying for fifteen people, for world peace, for the neighbors dog that barks all night, and things like this. Simply see Him right as He is. You can ask Him to show you His glory, say to Him I want to see Your face, but again, try and remain very single minded.

Listen, our Christian brothers and sisters used to have and maintain a practice of getting into the presence of God on the regular. They knew that they had to in order to live an effective Christ life. Some would go days at a time seeking His face, while others just hours. The Moravians started and maintained a 24-hr 365 day prayer meeting that lasted for over 110 years. Some say in visiting their prayer tower, that you can still tangibly feel the powerful presence of God.

Whatever duration you feel led to do, is between you and the Lord.

How many of us ask for more of God not realizing that if He responds then it will mean less of us.

I am not a mathematician but what can you expect when God wakes you up at 1:45am with a head full of messages. This one is a shorty and for good reason. Math problems shouldn’t be that long.

If we see our life like a glass and we look at it before we are born again it is 100% full of me, myself, and I. And so but when we get authentically born again and pass from this life to the other, that is the selfish life to the serving life, and head past the tree of justification and go down the path called sanctification we or rather He, begins to remove the me, myself and, I contents from our glass and replace it with Himself, with the Holy Spirit thus equipping us for the works of Jesus Christ.

Ok so this is usually not the kind of testimony I would share, but being a teacher of the word, I must throw it out there just in case you think that something like this is in no way possible. Now I have heard of this type of stuff happening all of the time. Yup, it is also all of the internet as people mock God and then that thing happens. Of course for the person that thinks it is “karma” or “bad luck” or “coincidental” or even just “random” regardless of what thought they hide behind to avoid the possibility that God just responded and they don’t like the results of what they just encountered.

In one of William Branhams messages he shares how an older man was against his whole ministry and often times would just moc the thing. However one day as he was meeting with William, he told him that God showed him that he had a heart condition. Oh he did not want to hear that. You see the ministry was doing what it always did which is why it was so successful. God read the mans mail, and he didn’t like it. Now on the flip side he could have been appreciative and gone to see the doctor to confirm it and to come up with a plan to remediate the situation. Yes of course he could have just asked William to pray for his healing, but he didn’t believe in that see so he was stuck.

A couple of weeks later, I might be off on the timeframe, but nevertheless he ended up at another one of Williams conferences because even though he didn’t believe his wife did. So as William is flowing in the anointing this man begins to mock William, and by the way when a minister is under the anointing you should be very careful what you say, as God is ever so present and will usually show Himself to be so. Williams was watching this man as he caught a vision of the man’s head going back and his eyes rolling to the back of his head, and sure enough this is exactly what happened. The audience panicked, but William reminded them of his training on reverence, but the mans wife was still panicking so William went down to see what was up.

He checked for the standard signs of life and declared the man dead. But now it never ends their when a minister is under the anointing of God. William prayed for the man that God would forgive him for acting so foolishly and his spirit returned right back in him. He has attended the conferences on the regular after this event.

My last William message was titled, “The Voice Of The Sign.” If you haven’t heard it yet, give it both ears as you will grow from it no doubt.

I have read each of the William Branham preaching messages at least two times. Like the bible you can get revelation each time you hear the messages. Now you can refer to my message titled, “The Voice Of The Sign by William Branham”, for more information on the why I am using his material for this short season.

The following message is a great parallel between the life of Samson and the church today. Oh, I know that some will get offended, especially the church lifers, but I agree with the message given that I have 25-yrs of proof that it is in fact true. I have stated that all you have to do to prove that I would be wrong is to tell me of a church, preferably the one that you are attending, that they are reproducing the work of Jesus. A challenge that I know will be all but impossible to prove. Oh, yes we have some, but they are as rare as discovering a 40-lbs ruby. And but now keep in mind we must first see the problem in order to move to solve it. If you allow offense to blind you, you can never move forward to solve it.

Why yes you guessed it, this is another William Branham preaching, teachin message. Now of course it’s me doing the preachin and teachin cuz he has gone on to be with the Lord at the end of 1965.

Now since my last William message which was titled, “The Seed Is Not Heir With The Shuck” I have been thinking about a question that I think some of you just might be asking yourself. Not asking me because if you did I would get a text or an email and I am not getting anything at this point.

The question is why I would be using the old messages of a dead guy instead of getting new messages from the Lord.

Well, to get that into context, we need to remember everything that comes out of a Christians mouth should be Bible worthy. Yup, the Holy Spirit inspires me and you just as much as He did the original authors of the bible. And since God is the same, yesterday, today, and tomorrow then by all means we should all be living and breathing the word every day of our lives.

We also know that God stated these things in the bible and therefore they add an element of eternity to our spoken words:

Isaiah 55:11

So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.

Isaiah 40:8

The grass withers, the flower fades, But the word of our God stands forever.”

Matthew 24:35

Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.

Ok so we see the value in an old message especially if it still carries a future accomplishment right. Some of the books in the bible still have that future in them. We call it prophesy.

Anyway, we have our favorite people or books that we read in the bible right? Well, I do too, but I also have my favorite Christian peeps that are not as old as Peter or Paul in whom are my favorites. Yes, as time moves forward, some of who I used to read, I read no more as the material is no long relevant for where I am focused. For example I am interested in the end times these days because I feel that God has nudged me in that direction. Before about a year ago I had no interest in end time stuff but was more focused on Revivals and how we get there from here.

So stop accusing believers who are doing the work of Jesus that they are the devil! Ha, yes that is what this message is about. I know you know that they called Jesus Beelzebub and got an unexpected reaction:

Matt 12:22-30 - 22 Then one was brought to Him who was demon-possessed, blind and mute; and He healed him, so that the blind and mute man both spoke and saw. 23 And all the multitudes were amazed and said, “Could this be the Son of David?”

24 Now when the Pharisees heard it they said, “This fellow does not cast out demons except by Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons.”

Ok so this is just stupid to say such a thing, especially when they are supposed to be the religious experts of the day. Satan casting out the demon that he himself has permissioned to attack those who have opened or remain in unrepentant sin? Would this not be the same logic as if we were to say, yes, it was Hitler who killed Mussolini because Mussolini was just as evil as he was? It’s not logical even if you are stupid. But they said it? They witnessed the kingdom of God manifesting supremacy over the demonic kingdom of satan, so they attributed the effort to satan. I know the more I explain it, the more ridiculous it sounds. And but let’s take it up yet another notch shall we. And yes, it is off topic, but someday it will be a topic that will be discussed in greater detail. So, someone who argues the fact as if it’s the truth that even though they were born with all male parts, that they are in fact a woman, is it not the same logic? Now I am not calling them stupid, although they could be depending on how far they take that thought, but surely we have a disconnect. Same as the pharmacies had when they heard the story about the demon leaving the man, and thus he could now talk and see.

One more thing and we then move on. How powerful is the truth that it causes such a stupid reaction from people? I mean we have seen an enormous amount of people come up with reasons for believing what they believe that have no truth, no facts to support the thought or belief, no statistics, no historical evidence, based in the absence of logic, and in fact goes against the very proof of their created body. Oh and for the others who could not see the dark side of politics believing somehow that all would be well if things went the other way. I have never seen such a manifestation of the work of the devil in my life. I have never read about so many people at once being possessed of the mind and are completely void of logic, truth detectors of any kind, wisdom, or discernment. Now I am not talking about Christians here, just people in general. And but now I bring that up because I am sure it will be the same people who swore by there own selves that they could safely drive while under 10-feet of quicksand. It will be these very people that one day will lead a good part of humanity into the darkside. This world did not get better because we narrowly avoided a possible and complete collapse of all things good and all things God. The devil will not relent, the anti-christ is just repositioning and will get his way because the bible states it will be so.

Ok so back to Matt 12:22-30 -

25 But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. 26 If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand? 27 And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges. 28 But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you. 29 Or how can one enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first bind

Ok so in my last message titled, “No Supernatural Works No Salvation” I mentioned that I would be working on my message titled, “2nd election.” Well but I must say that although I have been working on it, and as usual it is taking some Mulholland Drive asphalt digs, it is proving to be a considerable labor. This doesn’t mean that I will forgo the effort, as I believe God has something in it, but what it means is that because I am on a concurrent reading spree along with podcasting, I must empty my head of some of these massages temporarily. I mentioned that I was going to experiment with reading straight from a book series that William Branham wrote back as late as in the 60’s. They are really just booklets of a single message, but like myself, he can go surfing for a minute waiting for that perfect 3rd wave. Yes, you should but be a surfer to know the significance of the 3rd wave. It is said that waves generally come in sets of three, and if you are a patient surfer you should wait until the third one as it is the treasure wave.

So how does that relate to preaching in power? You will notice if you are in the activity of noticing, that sometimes it sounds like the preacher is rambling or just repeating himself. Now I am teaching for a minute how you should 1) be paying attention to the speaker so that you can enter in, and 2) so that when you yourself preach or whatever God, that you know how to wait upon the Lord to show up so that what you say is anointed of God. Yes, bam I just got a head of myself right there and gave you the key. They, are simply waiting for God to show up before releasing what God has to say so that it, the message, comes in the power of God and but also so that the atmosphere is charged with belief and faith. For William’s ministry this was necessary for the gift of healing to be activated. In this next series of messages, I will try and clean up some of the messages as most are “unabridged” meaning unchanged as spoken. Some believe that if you tamper with the original then you take something from it. My intent is to make it as clear as possible so that you do not get confused. I will however, leave some of that stuff in the messages, as it is the way in which William Branham spoke, and it would be good for us edumacated folks to see that God truly choses us in whom are not selected first for anything earth just to confound the wisdom of the world:

1 Cor 1:25-29 - 25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

26 For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. 27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; 28 and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, 29 that no flesh should glory in His presence.

Ok so I got to work on my timing with God. I say well Lord what shall I talk about next then read a book and/or the bible and I have another eight messages added to the Q. To be honest it is not easy walking with a God who knows everything. And I am always honest.

No but like I was going to finish my 2nd Election message which initially was one, then morphed into two. And but then as I could no longer sleep and got up I started to read a William Branham booklet which is titled The Spoken Word by William Branham. The message within it is titled “The Seed Is Not Heir With The Shuck” now he preached or taught this message at Parkview Junior High School in Jefferson Indiana on February 18, 1965.

If many are saying things against another person who has the evidence that God was being manifest in his life, then I always question the many. Look Jesus stated that there are many who are trying to get into the kingdom of God and will be unable. You would think that with so many Christians setting their teeth against others, proven to have God manifesting Himself in their ministry, that back-biting was a requirement to get into heaven. I mean can you imagine the conversation some of the heads of these large denominations and non-denominations, including the Popes and organizational structurites of the Catholic Church will have with Jesus once they stand before Him? I mean the arguments for why the church went in the ways she goes today will not move Jesus off of His word. You see now you know this is going to be a great message but so will the 2nd Elections message once I post this one.

Well as I was thinking about this election coming up, I saw a story in the bible that seems to fit the bill perfectly. I think for anyone who is to vote in this election you should consider this story and remember, God will give us the desires of our hearts. And you can thank Him that he holds back some of those desires.

So just a quick bit of background, I was working on my 2nd Election message, when in reading a book decided to put that off for a minute to begin writing what I thought was a more currently relevant message titled “No Super Natural Works No Salvation”. And I just might be taking credit for something that God is actually doing. Now but then as I was bringing that message to a close in writing so I could move to recording it, I was moved to throw this shorty message together for no other reason that the short time before the elections. My initial title was to be Kamala Harris, but then the scripture came to me regarding the time when Israel wanted a human king rather than to continue to follow the King of kings, and so I changed the message to “Saul For President”.

Now it would totally be Corney except for the fact of how accurate the story of him becoming king weren’t so similar to us selecting the next President. Oh, you will see it as I read the scripture and then break it down just a little bit. Now no matter who you want to vote for, you should keep your spiritual antenna up as I believe that had Israel kept there’s up they would have decided to keep the King of kings as their leader.

Ha, it’s not what you think. Well, that is if you thought that this was going to be about the upcoming elections. Nope, this is about the ELECTIONs as per what the bible states about the word.

This word “election” has been the topic of many good discussions, and worse decisions of course, as we have many denominational and non-denominational churches, which simply tells you, that we are not afraid to divorce ourselves to be right! Yes, the word election or belief of what it means has resulted in church divorces.

And but the question is why, if the bible states God hates divorce.

Mal 2:16 - “For the Lord God of Israel says That He hates divorce, For it covers one’s garment with violence,” Says the Lord of hosts. “Therefore take heed to your spirit, That you do not deal treacherously.”

Hey Podcast Preacher, this pertains to people not His church or bride. Really? I know that you have been taught that the reason we have so many churches is that God wanted us to have options. Ha. This is a lie and simply an effort for them to justify division. The book of Acts does not discuss church denominational options but only locations. Ok so what is behind this great divide Ken?

Well, it all started back when the Catholic church got sideways and became possessed of the anti-christ spirit. Now I am not picking on those who go to that church today, because many do so, totally unaware of its history and but although, they should still know by its current behaviors, and if they, like the rest of us, do not obey God and get to know Him intimately, then they will encounter a goat judgement from Jesus whereby they will not make it into heaven, and that will be baaaadddd.

No this is not about reading a cookbook but about, as you read your bible, you will be cookin’ for God. It’s kinda like the turkey cooking itself. Well, but the source of the fire is the Holy Spirit and so but to be on fire you will have to contain the source, therefore you will need to be filled with the Holy Spirit:

Matt 3:11 - I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

Ps 104:4 - Who makes His angels spirits, His ministers a flame of fire.

And but the inverse is also true:

2 Chron 15:2 - And he went out to meet Asa, and said to him: “Hear me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin. The Lord is with you while you are with Him. If you seek Him, He will be found by you; but if you forsake Him, He will forsake you.

You see we cannot obey Him and we cannot know Him if we do not read about him (2 Thes 1:7-8), no I don’t just mean to read the bible but to actually desire and get to know how He thinks, loves, serves, behaves, under the most tensest of situations. Read to seek him and you will find Him and then you can discover what it is to find God (Jer 29:13 / Is 55:6), Do so to eventually, when you are prepared as a spiritually mature disciple to do the things that he did while He was on this planet (John 14:12). We cannot be in Christ reproducing nothing in our lives as it relates to Christianity (Rom 6:11, 23). Being and existing in Christ will mean that we reproduce the things that Jesus reproduced when he was here (Acts 17:28). And so but I want to show you a biblical clock that will eventually stop ticking for the gentiles, oh it will stop after the gentile bride is taken up, as Israel needs to be saved next and we have some 144,000 jews to add and more of course, and but when this work is finished it stops for all of humanity for eternity. No doubt the watch industry will crash. Listen and see if you can hear it:

Is 55:6 - Seek the Lord while He may be found, Call upon Him while He is near.

It is one word, “while”, yes that word tells us we only have a bit of time to decide if we will accept the gospel and saving salvationary life of Jesus, a deal that only He can offer. Eventually, like He is lost to the Jews today for a minute, He will be lost to the gentiles then. Sooner rather than later He will not be able to be found, sooner rather than later He will not be near. I just wanted to nudge you off of that sin ladened couch and get you to be a little uncomfortable regarding your position to and in Him. Salvation for the gentiles has an expiration date. It is best if you accept it now.

OK so let’s go into the scripture that eventually leads us into the, “more than a conqueror” claim, and yes line-by-line because it will be important for us to understand why you may not be operating at the best version level of yourself. Yes, this is the true and real point of this message, but God has me setting the reasons in order so that you can bust your groove out. I have included an example or rather sample of this in play, in this message, for encouragement and evidence that it works, and to let you know that I know, in Him, what I am talking about. I have a lifetime of fruit to this effect. I also have stats that prove, He did what He equipped me to do, in those seasons through me. I would say that we have honored people with the Nobel Peace prize who have not been as effective in their mission as I have been, in Him. I know, I know it’s not fair to compare, but I just want you to know without question that I am onto something, and if you really listen and learn from me, in Him, you will inevitably be more than a conqueror and grow to become and to daily operate as the best version of yourself with a kingdom mindset. Yes, you can listen to all of those who claim that they can help you and will do so for a fee. No, they won’t chat too much about the fee, but I ask you to ask them where is there fruit? What are the stats saying about their hollow promises. Without God they are indeed hollow. You cannot change without His help. Sin is the great success blocker and anyone who thinks that they have done it hasn’t looked down at their feet to see that they are simply on a treadmill and all of that running, all of that effort, and achievements, have gotten them no further than the length of the treadmill.

Now I will tell you briefly some truths that I have experienced, not to discourage you but so that you know what I am talking about is not easy, as the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak (Matt 26:41). Fear is the leading factor in most peoples lives, and boy how we can excuse it away. How many people should have started businesses but didn’t because of excuses. Excuses are rooted in fear. How many should have become singers, politicians, state employees, inventors, artists. Ha, I talked to an artist who was selling clothes, and I asked her why she was selling cloths if her hearts desire was to be an artist. She stated because her parents told her that there was no money in it and that she should become a dental assistant. Out of the frying pan and into the fire. Another human destined to totally miss the whole reason that they were put on this spinning rock. And all because of the fear that they would become just another starving artist. And but if you are called to it you will not starve because God did not call you to starvation.

This message is based on my reading of many books including but not limited to, and my most recent read, The Dragon’s Prophesy written by Jonathan Cahn. I have also read others that also touch on the end times which scripturally includes and will include within the books of the bible Daniel, Ezekiel, Matthew, and the book of Revelation. Some of those must read books along with their authors are as follows. And well if you are asking yourself why I just don’t tell you what the books are about it is because I want to avoid skewing the data so to speak. It’s the end of days and near to when Jesus will be coming back for His Gentile church before ruling and reigning on earth for a 1000-years. The final one thousand of the 7000-thousand years that the earth plan will be in existence. I get this from some of these books that I have read as well as knowing and believing that the number 7 represents completion. And but besides all of this, what else is more important than knowing we are so very near to the end? I mean in the event you may have been one of those who have just sat on the sidelines in your church not really making much if any contribution to the work of the church or to Jesus, now would be a good time to build that supernatural resume.

The book list is long and you can blame that on God because it was He that gave me the appetite to read. For over 20-yrs I did not know I was called to be a teacher as described in these three scriptures, the first two are the assignment, but the last one is a warning of caution:

Eph 4:11 - 11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,

These are known as the offices that Jesus places His people into so that the church can function as she ought, not as she is for the most part but as she ought. You can read the book of Acts to see what the church should look like and who is really building it.

1 Cor 12:28 - And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues.

Ok so we are now going to cover tongues:

2 Cor 12:10 - to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.

So, because of the current condition of the church which is that we are in the Laodicean church age, and many are without the Holy Spirit, and many are not making disciples or equipping the saints for the work of ministry which leave many Christians without ammo. Oh they may have weapons, and know the word in part, but without those elements being in place, that is being equipped for the work of ministry, being a disciple, and being taught how to use and function in a spiritual office, if called to do so, and how to use the Holy Spirit given spiritual gifts, what chance do they have? If the devil has talked you out of seeking tongues or of using tongues then he has stolen some of your ammo (John 10:10).

Do you believe in using any or all of the gifts (spiritual tools) that God has given you as you go and preach the gospel? If so then you should bibbly babbly away. We cannot get around these scriptures which is perhaps why some are up in arms about this interesting manifestation.

Where we do this is irrelevant if indeed you are unable or unwilling to learn how to do this right? When I got saved I did not know how to speak in tongues at all, and yes I was definitely intrigued when I heard others doing it. And yes, I looked up every scripture on tongues to see if we were OK. And well we were, and I was set on learning how to speak in tongues, and did eventually do so, and in so doing my prayer life was extended in time and in effectiveness. My longest prayering day was about 8-hrs. 99.9% of my prayer was in tongues, and boy did I have some kind of experience while doing so. So I will provide some testimonies of speaking in tongues so that you are aware of your need for it and the fact that even outside of your normal prayers that this is like adding super-powers to your prayer life. I was going to say Nitrous but not everyone loves and appreciates cars as I do. Ha…

Do you react without knowing how God would react or do you respond according to your built up and ready at any given moment relationship with God?

This message is about the difference between those two words and what happens when we do one or the other. Let’s dictionary.com them in order to lay a good foundation:

D-Com

REACT –

1. to act in response to an agent or influence:

How did the audience react to the speech?

1. to act reciprocally upon each other, as two things.
2. to act in a reverse direction or manner, especially so as to return to a prior condition.
3. to act in opposition, as against some force.
4. to respond to a stimulus in a particular manner:

reacting to a shock by jumping; to react to the word “coward” with anger.

RESPOND -

1. to reply or answer in words:

to respond briefly to a question.

Synonyms: rejoin

1. to make a return by some action as if in answer:

to respond generously to a charity drive.

Synonyms: reply, react, rise

1. to react favorably.
2. Physiology. to exhibit some action or effect as if in answer; react:

Nerves respond to a stimulus.

1. to correspond (usually followed by to ).
2. Bridge. to make a response.

Ok so we see that in either case we can react or respond in the same manner potentially getting the same result. But we aren’t talking as if this were even slightly possible.

You see I can react in anger, or I can respond in anger. See it? So what or how can we distinguish the difference, because what I am talking about is the difference between these statements? I mean there has to be a way, and by golly there is, at least for this message, to distinguish and to use that method once discovered, and allowed to lead us in very tense situations.

I am not sure if I'm trying to dispel the myth that if you just wait until your last dying day before surrendering to God that it will all work out. And but the obvious thing in that very statement is that most of us will not know when our last living day will be. Ok Je….beeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Or maybe I tired of hearing from so many believing and hopeful Christians that God loves all people, or that we are all Gods kids. Now I will be dealing with the God loves all people, not to embarrass anyone, or to shame them in ignorance. I do it because these kinds of errors can lead a person astray and you know that all you have to do is have your wheels turned just a 16th of an inch off center to eventually end up in the ditch. Oh, I know you won’t think anything is off until you have to call the tow truck. But let’s just agree that no one person has all this bible figured out and so it is good to be a great listener. Listen if you can turn pages, you have nothing to fear by listening to someone else regarding the bible, because as I try and bring up from time to time, you should check everything that people say is the truth with the Word. If someone says God is green, ask where it states that. Go home and start Flippin pages. If they say He stated that about Himself in a vision or in a dream, look for His green offspring, and yes they should be on earth not on Mars. Ha I know I just got silly there, but all I am saying is that you will be responsible for your bible and God knowledge, and it is useful to have others to help, but you should know the bible well enough to check on what is being shared with you.

Now regarding statements and/or beliefs like, “we are all Gods kids and therefore He loves us all”, let’s see what the bible states just so that we are clear on the issue:

John 1:12 - But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:

I think that, that scripture is pretty clear and dispels the myth, but however, we should be able to support such a claim with more scriptures as it is a big deal to consider that not all people are Gods kids:

1 John 3:12 - 12 not as Cain who was of the wicked one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his works were evil and his brother’s righteous.

My thought when I read this scripture is that it maybe should have stated, “he who spares his rod hates his son and sets himself up for correction from God Himself.” Yes, this way of saying this is not new, it is just a combination of scriptures that are included in this message. The original title to this message was, “disciplining kids”, which I thought everyone would want to know why and how this activity should take place. I really didn’t expect any kids to listen to it, well because you know, the title. Ha, but so as I was wrapping up my most recent message titled, “long suffering with yourself”, I came across this message and thought I should revise it to also include adults. Yes, we too get disciplined by God, we get corrected by God, and oh no yes, we get chastened by God, and so I thought it appropriate to add that discussion into this message. I have modified the kid part of the message as the original message was only about 10-min long.

It is my hope with these kinds of messages that we are not caught off guard when trouble comes. It is my belief that we should know the difference between “discipline”, “correction”, “chastening”, “persecution”, “troubles”, “testing”, “trials”, “sorrows”, “reproached”, & “the activity of “curses.” And well yes, if you thought that, this would be a great topic to do a message on, you are right and it will be coming to a social media platform near you.

Even if you lived to a good ripe old age, this message rings completely true. No one has ever, can ever, or will ever, prove this one truth statement false, and that is that, somehow you will be able to take anything with you when you die. Ha, listen, you do not even get to take your body with you, how is it that we could, in any way, take what we have purchased, been gifted, or stollen with us when we need our bodies to carry that stuff? All of it stays behind.

1 Tim 6:7 - 7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.

Let’s D-Com for a minute:

Temporary –

lasting, existing, serving, or effective for a time only; not permanent:

a temporary need;

a temporary job.

Synonyms: passing, impermanent

Interesting that it mentions time given we will leave everything we collect in time to time. All of our anything that was given, used, birthed, gifted, labored for, will stay in the time dimension. Which by the way, when we leave time we pass from its limits to eternity whereby the limits of time no longer have an effect on us. Ah, but think upon this for a minute. What you did spiritually speaking, while living on this spinning rock, by way of listening to God, obeying God, getting to know Him in all processes, will matter in eternity though it was done in time.

2 Tim 2:20-21 - 20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay, some for honor and some for dishonor. 21 Therefore if anyone cleanses himself from the latter, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified and useful for the Master, prepared for every good work.

You're not a born-again spiritual grown up so give yourself some time.

Far too often we encounter the Born-again experience and then want to get out on the street and start preaching something we don't even know yet. I know we can't help ourselves I was one of those, and unless God gave you a download of the whole Bible with all the Revelation you need to turn the world upside down then you ought to wait until you have some understanding of what just happened to you. Otherwise, you'll spend the first part of your Christianity turning people away and the second part apologizing to them for doing so. And we don’t have enough time to make up time.

A child is not born a doctor, they might have all the ingredients to be one, but there's a process that they have to go through in order to be a good one and that is that, they've got to learn something, and but not only learn it, they've got to apply it along the way, so they learn they apply, they learn they apply, you see that, that is how it goes.

A child is not born a teacher, they might have all the ingredients, but they're going to have to go to school and learn the subjects that they want to teach on so they at least know more than the students that they are teaching. These days kids have access to knowledge same as a person going to college so you've got to know your stuff as a teacher in order to be able to educate them and take them to a higher level. And yes you will still have to deal with the kids that think that they know it all, same as was the case back when I attended school, except that it is worse today because while you are teaching, they can look up whatever you stated and will without hesitation call you out on it if you are even remotely off or misunderstood.

Oh boy up at 3am to drop this message into the world of social media. I could not sleep on account that I believe this needed to be shared with my listening audience and because like you I too am at times fighting battles near to home. Why? Sometimes we all, at one point or the other, have trials, struggles, go through persecutions or even God pruning’s (John 15:2), and are fighting tremendous battles on behalf of our Christianity. Look and listen maybe this will help:

2 Tim 2:3-4 - 3 You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. 4 No one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him as a soldier.

Ha, I know that may not have helped but it needed to be said so that we stay sober and fight.

Now I have noticed that many of my recent messages are telling you what the end times looks like and what kinds of things will be taking place and even how you as a believer should be on the lookout for believing and doing things that could get you in spiritual or even salvation trouble. But, and I say this carefully, I haven’t touched some of the potential battle wounds out there. And this message will do just that. Why Podcast Preacher? Healing, and to encourage you to continue in the things of faith and for the authentically born-again believer, all things are in faith. But and if you haven’t figured this out yet, operating in faith also brings with it suffering. Oh yes the very thing that perfected our Lord and King will also perfect us so to speak:

Heb 2:10 – 10 For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

Heb 5:8-9 - 8 though He was a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered. 9 And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him,

Ok so I am finishing up on my message titled, “A Man’s Enemies Will Be Those of His Own Household” which interrupted my finishing my message titled, “The Benefits of Hard Heartedness, Drawing Back, Backsliding, And All-Out Leaving All Things God”, when I got a text asking me to listen to a YouTube message which essentially was trying to disprove the rapture thingy. Now I have been working with someone on the idea that this event is described in the bible, but to no avail. And I had been getting quite a few questions on this as well, so it is the combination of interests, that I decided to set aside my message which was interrupting my other message and pull this one together.

Whew, I know it’s a lot of background, but it is important to know when God is redirecting you for a moment or so to deal with an issue. Now the rapture is not really an issue, it is understanding the whole picture which include being caught up, the different purposes of tribulation, and to whom each one applies, and Gods judging sins. You see without giving too much away up front, the tribulation which is to occur over a 7-year period, and will be triggered by Israel signing a 7-year peace treaty with the anti-christ, unknowingly of course, is also a sign that the last 2000-year period of the last 6000 years of earth existence, is coming to an end, and in so doing, and the rapture will remove the mostly gentile church before or just after that 7-year peace treaty is entered into by Israel, is to judge the sons of disobedience. Yes to remove all of the middle part, the tribulation is to judge the sons of disobedience, the non or un believers, those who flatly reject Jesus as God, the unrepentant sinner, and the willing sinner. Yes, you will be left behind if you fit into any of those categories. This double interrupting message is to support the idea that authentically born-again believers who know God, and have obeyed Him will not have to go through the 7-year tribulation period. Now let’s see if I can do that.

So, you might ask hey Podcast Preacher when are you going to finish your top ten messages? And I would say eventually, but because time does not stand still and I try with everything in me to provide “right now” needed messages to my listeners and doers, and God is the decisive one in whom I try and follow. My past looks like the Mulholland drive as I tried to as much as I could be the Christian I was called to be. I will tell you now, that, no doubt many of my listeners are stronger Christians than I. God didn’t reveal this Podcast opportunity to the most qualified. Hey, I didn’t even know what a Podcast was, when I got the word to launch it by three different people. So, but also so that you do not underestimate my calling and purpose, God uses people like me to do the extraordinary, and I know I better place a reference least some of you think I just fell into pride:

1 Cor 1:18-31 - 18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written:

“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”

How can someone who depends on their degree and higher education understand this without some level of feeling some futility in the whole educational mess. I am not against schooling, just the institutions that are not really in it to equip all people in their strengths and talents equipping them to be the best version of themselves.

20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe. 22 For Jews request a sign, and Greeks seek after wisdom; 23 but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness, 24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

OK so Apostasy is a word I have always disliked and do you want to know why? Because 1) I didn’t have a reply when someone threw it out to describe someone that they claimed that they knew, who had fallen into the Apostasy mess, and 2) because I didn’t actually know what it meant. And but I didn’t have enough interest in what it meant because it well didn’t interest me. It sounds like an ugly word right, and who wants to look up an ugly word. Ha, but so in my retirement I thought, being as difficult as it has been, difficult because I am a doer and in my first days being retired, I have found I should also be a waiter, no not like at a restaurant but, to be resting with the Lord and waiting for further instruction as to what this next season looks like, and because I am not good at this it is difficult.

Back to “I thought”, I thought I should get back to the basics of reading the bible for me and not so much to develop my next message. What a concept right? Well being a doer can distract you from Him and your relationship with God, not that this has happened, but I am concerned that it could happen to me, so I will do what I need to do to keep it happening by learning to be a waiter.

So today I started reading out of the book of Isaiah and came across his statement about the book of Jasper round about in Is 28:21 which stated

Is 28:21 - For the Lord will rise up as at Mount Perazim,
He will be angry as in the Valley of Gibeon—
That He may do His work, His awesome work,
And bring to pass His act, His unusual act.

So but because I saw butterflies in that I got distracted with the statement, “unusual act”, I chased the referenced scripture which led me to read Joshua 10:10, 12 so I looked that up thinking I could find something related to an unusual act.

Using the blasphemous last supper decretched display during the Olympics and all of the laws that now support behaviors that God had judged Sodom and Gomorrah for, and then ask the question how we can expect anything different other than fire raining from heaven or starting right on the ground and burning as they do in these days? God will judge sin, or rather the sins of the nation, whether you believe it or not. And but you should know that the role of the Christian these days is different than the non-believer. The non-believer is subject to go sideways in the things of sin. But the believer is to be a bright light, a bucket of salt preserving Gods ways on this spinning rock. We are to do Christianity until the Rapture, and if you are bible ignorant and no nothing about this very soon to happen event then just continue to do Christianity and also read your bible so that you do your Christianity proper.

If you go to the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) and take a look at the fires ripping through the US and Canada you might just be a bit concerned that it isn’t just due to possibly man made climate change which if we really are experiencing climate change, not the kind of climate change that dumps truckloads of dollars into the waiting e-car industry, but just simply the change that comes with the ravages of sin that have come upon this planet because of well us, look:

1 John 5:19 - We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.

The WHOLE world, not just people but the whole world. Yes, we turned over the authority of this planet, which God gave to Adam, to mankind in the garden, and we in our sinning against God gave it to satan. You see, in our sinning, death didn’t just fall upon mankind but upon everything including the very earth itself. Listen to this series of scriptures and see, not what Adam did, but and although reversable by the blood of Jesus, what we continue to do in our rejection of God and His Son today. May this message have a wake-up impact on the Christian community

The title of this message is: Faith, Faith, Faith, Faith, Faith, Faith, Faith

I guess I could have just titled it faith X 7, ha but no way as seven is the number of perfection and operating in faith perfectly is earth and heaven shattering. Why, it would have the potential to ignite a revival of epic proportions, if we could operate in faith 24-7 lined up with the perfect will of God.

So then Ken or Mr. Podcast Preacher if faith is so necessary to be a part of our spiritual DNA then why are we as Christians not having a greater impact, a more necessary influence on the world events of our small world?

Well so let’s briefly look again at today’s church in 2024. I don’t want to spend too much time (ha, ha) on these things because I speak upon them moocho mucho. Let’s line them up shall we:

No Holy Spirit in most churches today -

Mark 3:29 - but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation” —

Luke 12:10 - “And anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but to him who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven.

So if we do not have the Holy Spirit, we cannot operate in miracles, signs, and wonders, healing no one anywhere near to us. What a selfish way to think about those who most need to see the power of God so that they could get healed and see the power and glory of God in whom they need to pass from this life into all of eternity spent with Jesus the rest of us firebrands. Look before we get vomited out of the mouth of Jesus as we are truly running out of time.

Welcome to my 7th topic of ten which is titled, “Stop With The Excuses & Lies”. And but you should know why I am doing a message on this topic and that is because I feel like so many of us including me, have a quiver full of excuses for why we initially respond to God requests with a strange series of statements like, “ God is that You”, or “what’s going on”, or “hey did you hear that”, or “That wasn’t God” or “we go to binding the devil” or we just ignore the voice of instruction and try to go on about our way. Now the other lane of institutional prepackaged vocals is to come up with excuses as to why, the God who created everything, cannot work through us to get His instruction to us accomplished.

Oh, I know you want an example out of the bible and so well I will give you one, in fact I will give you the one that motivated me to do this message in the first place.

So, I discovered a Moses journey that is actually quite funny with the exception that he really at some point in time, really irritated God to the point that he needed help to escape death. Yes, and this was even before he went to Egypt to tell pharaoh to let the people go. With all of the Christian excuses we have today regarding God asking us to do stuff, aren’t you glad He is not, at least right now, in the snuffing business? The unfortunate part of the affair is that you end up wasting your Christan life by not entering into your calling and purpose He has written on your very heart. You will need to read your bible and press into God so that you can find out your purpose and spiritual life calling, be ready to be clipped and snipped.

We know that James states to be hearers and doers (James 1:22), and well the entire bible is based on an active Christianity, and unfortunately many, many, many take that to mean church attendance. Fact! The building may be called a church but is, in fact, not the church by biblical definition. You are the church, so going to an address does not address your Christianity in the fullness of what Jesus intended, based on His revelation in the book of Revelation chapter 3. My friends we must relearn what it is to be a Christian for these days least we be drug away by the sweet words of the false prophets and teachers who have every intend to magic you away from the reality of Gods purpose for your life (2 Peter 2:1-3, Matt 24:24).

2 Tim 4:3 - For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers;

Listen to me the time is now and has been. Unsound doctrine is the sweet meal of the day and it sits on the religious menu right next to the Cinnabon and filet mignon ha.

Today is take your Father to work day. No it isn't, you're supposed to take your Father to work everyday. Now but you know that I am talking about God, His holy Spirit, and Jesus who dwells in you right?

My Dad is better than your dad if your dad is not my Dad, ha. No but so I have heard for a good part of my Christian walk that you cannot and should not manifest your Christianity at work, and oh especially if you work a Government job. Oh the legal knuckleheads have so many people confused and deceived regarding the statement, there must be a separation of church and state. And but my concern is not for the God haters and earth-rebels, but for the ignorant Christians who are daily silent in a world of opportunity to change lives like nothing else can for all of eternity. Oh excuse me Eternity, I cannot right now lead anyone to you as I am instructed not to do so while I am managing their short-term journey to hell. Oh I care just not between the hours of 8am to 5pm. And but if I am a ruler of many then those hours are extended to on many days more than 12-hrs per day or more. That I know is a lot of silent time but boy do I get the work done and by the way, I don’t know if you have noticed but I am really making such a big difference in peoples natural lives, and but….bink, bink, bink we interrupt this message to bring you some breaking news. It appears as though people have been disappearing, not a lot but it is significant enough to notice that they definitely just vanished…

Ha, and what is happening these days? They are trying to join all of the religions of the world into one. But in order for this to work, and many of us will buy into the idea even though we have been given advanced warning, they, we will have to remove Jesus as God. Yup we will have to relegate Him to a man-status. Why Because He is the only way to salvation and for whatever reason satan seems to know this more than the crowds that will agree to this insanity. You see Jesus and His true followers will get blamed for all of the unrest and spiritual wars so of course it stands to reason if we are to have peace, He must go. It’s the work of the anti-christ and the majority are ignorant of his working things out to his end-time advantage. One Government and one church that lines up with Government.

So the following two scriptures will outline the entire message, not that I will not use other scripture but these will lay the foundation for this revelation and in some ways I hope I am wrong, but I don’t say that to ease how you will feel if your feeling takes a back seat to the motivation and inspiration, I hope you get for getting away from everything that distracts you from the things of God in your life. This should literally take your breath away for at least a moment and you should have some kind of spiritual reaction if you see and hear what the spirit is saying to us in this message.

Luke 17:26-30 - 26 And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: 27 They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. 28 Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; 29 but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. 30 Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.

2 Peter 2:5 - and did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly;

Lets hear that again you know for impact. “And as it was in the days of Noah so shall it be also in the days of the son of man they did eat they drink they married wives they were given in marriage until the day Noah entered into the ark and the flood came and destroyed them all likewise also as it was in the days of lot they did eat they drink they bought they sold they planted they build it but the same day that lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all even thus shall it be in the day when the son of man is revealed.”

When the son of man is revealed, hummm are we ready for these days leading up to this event? Everyone alive on this earth, whether you believed or not, will actually see Jesus for the first time, especially those of us who grew up in the Laodicean church where Jesus was kicked out long ago beginning around 1906. And but when you see Him know that the ark door has just closed. The opportunity for salvation is offered no more.

So now then welcome to my fifth topic of ten which is titled, “Did Satan Sex Eve & if So Why” And but you should know why I am doing a message on this topic and keep in mind it is not about sex but corruption and sin.

This message is about what has been going on well, before the beginning of time and continues to and throughout today and will eventually culminate to its intended end when Jesus shouts "That's a wrap." Well God the Father will shout that, and then Jesus will get on His high horse, I say that because His horse is in heaven, and head down to earth to do some thumping like Peter Rabbit.

Keep in mind that in any of my messages I could be wrong. That is the risk we take as humans when serving God. My thought is, that it is better to serve and make mistakes along the way than to have never served and thus avoiding making any messaging mistakes or generating any good works. But now if I may be a friend for a moment, it would be a greater mistake to avoid serving God in the fear that you may miss it, than to serve in your humanity risking any and all possible learning opportunities.

Now a serious word of caution before I get into this one. If you are accustomed to having a fixed mind and that you only believe the things you understand at this very moment in time, and have not put into practice, the rolling around of scriptures in your mind until it comes out polished like stones in a tumbler, then this message is going to grind at you. None of us has the corner market on the revelation of the entire bible.

When I first heard what I am about to share with you, I was not going to believe it even if it were true because well, I had no slot in my mind for it to be honest. I didn’t even know what a Rhama word was. When I first heard it and I will tell you that I was very spiritually immature at that time, the person who shared it received a response from me that a child would give their parents when being asked to go to bed at 6pm on a July summers night.

Welcome to my fourth topic of ten which is titled Is God a Trinity or One God? And but you should know why I am doing a message on this topic which is that, well in part it is because too many people base their opinions and allow their emotions to determine that if someone believes in any other thinking on this subject other than what the majority thinks, well then they must is a non-Christian or even cultic or a heathen, and that the person has lost their spiritual mind if they ever did have one. But these responses are non-biblical and considered so especially when the one who is teaching what they believe to be the truth is open to bible supported correction or at least a cordial discussion on such a topic. And now but besides this mess, we need to ask ourselves if we in fact are really students of the bible. What I mean is that well it is better stated in Proverbs:

Pro 25:2 - It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, But the glory of kings is to search out a matter.

and...

2 Tim 2:15 - Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Now if you do not believe that the Lord is King of kings (Rev 17:14) then perhaps you are one of those who deselect portions of the bible to suit your needs. Ha no worries we can all fall into this trap. No see what I am really saying is that you really just want to be the Christian that you think you should be and, want others to see, and not the Christian Jesus has assigned you to be. Ouch?

It is better to know now that perhaps bible policing is not a spiritual gift over and above loving one another (John 13:34-35) or growing in the character of the Holy Spirit (Gal 5:22-26). I speak in such language because I used to be a bible police and I eventually found out that the Holy Spirit does a better job at keeping us lined up if we in fact let Him. So, I have no interest in lining you up but just presenting a position for you to contemplate. Perhaps in my naivety I think that all Christians are open to discussing all things bible even if we don’t agree.

What If They Were Right? I mean what if there really is no God?

1Cor15:12-19 - 12 Now if Christ is preached that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? 13 But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ is not risen. 14 And if Christ is not risen, then our preaching is empty and your faith is also empty. 15 Yes, and we are found false witnesses of God, because we have testified of God that He raised up Christ, whom He did not raise up—if in fact the dead do not rise. 16 For if the dead do not rise, then Christ is not risen. 17 And if Christ is not risen, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins! 18 Then also those who have [a]fallen asleep in Christ have perished. 19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable.

So, if it isn’t already apparent, this message is going to be totally awesome. Ha, I believe this so much so, that I interrupted my ten-message series to drop this one in right after the third one published Thursday morning.

Now I will be coming from the position of undoing history, today, and the future as written in the bible. Will it answer the question is there a God? Yes, but not by the traditionally supporting the bible, but by undoing it’s spoken events. Now I believe in God beyond explanation, and but so this approach, I feel, is heaven sent as I was working on my 3rd of ten messages when the idea popped into my head. And but it is also not because I was losing my faith or because things are tough out there, no none of that. I think it was because I knew that God was going to take me backwards, and that will make some sense hopefully before we find ourselves at the end of this message.

Hosea 4:6 - My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.

This is God talking to us Christians not the other guys.

Welcome to my third topic of ten which is titled, “Is Jesus coming back Soon And will we know whenish?” And but you should know why I am doing a message on this topic and that is because we are closer to Him returning, and based on the way Christians are acting and behaving, they seem to be unaware. What Ken? Yupper Tupperware. By the looks and activities of many of our sweet churches today, you would think that we have all the time in the world to wait for His return. I mean the bible states that there is a time for the Laodicean church age to manifest and many have taught that this, meaning today starting around 1950’s is the age for that church. And Jesus Himself stated you would know them by their fruit, and no fruit is a telling story regardless of how you might redefine what it looks like to walk with God. Ha oh wait you want the fruit list before I carry on with this message. Ok, so let’s build a bit of support and then get on with what kind of fruit Jesus is talking about, that all but appears to be MIA from the existing body of Christ in well most cases as you know I would never say all because I do not know or believe that all churches absent of the fruit of God is possible. If that were true then we ought prepare to be raptured any second now. But since I am still here typing away then we must have some that are on task. So now don’t go gettin mad, ignorance of the things of God is a thing in the ill-equipped body that actually has a cure, and it is listening to this message, and well the other Podcast messages, and then doing what you can to depart from a stationary induced ignorance. Or just read the bible and do that. I am not the final answer, I am just one of you trying to do my best to line my life up with the life of Jesus. Let’s build it and then get into it:

2 Peter 3:1-7 - 3 Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder), 2 that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior, 3 knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, (that is these days) walking according to their own lusts, 4 and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.” 5 For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water, 6 by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water. 7 But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

So now then welcome to my second topic of ten which is titled, “can you lose your salvation?” And but you should know why I am doing a message on this topic and for those of you that think you know, my answer might surprise you. I am doing this not because I am trying to point out that there is a difference between us and them, the believer and unbeliever, but because there are so many of us’s that believe we are in because we simply stated a prayer at an alter. This really is a message more for the Christian nutralites. A nutralite is a Christian that even though they may have had a born-again experience, they have done nothing by way of changing from the old man to the new man that would show or demonstrate that they were actually born again. For them or others they may remain as they were at the beginning of their salvation because they have been taught that they cannot lose their salvation once they have gotten it. There response is to do nothing because all the work was already completed on the cross and they know that they can do nothing to earn salvation so they gladly shift their lives into neutral; and it is right there that we have the birth of the nutralite.

So before we go on, as I am hoping I didn’t already lose my listener base, ha I should tell you that I do feel unqualified to delve into such things as this from the position that I will be trying to take. And I say so, because really there are others who have done a better job at explaining these kind of things. So why do it Ken? Because it occurred to me when I was reading a book this past Sunday that something strange bumped into my current thinking. Allow me to share. So I have done more than one message and a book soon to be released down the road, on the subject of losing your salvation. And I supported that thought using some of the same scriptures that I will be using in this message, but from a new angle. We will take a look at the inerrancy of God predestining His peeps to salvation which, if this is the case, then there is no guesswork as to who name is in the book of Life and who’s is not right? It is finished before it started so to speak (1 Peter 1:20). The other angle is that your name could be in the book of Life but because you went south in your walk with God your name vanished from the book. I will provide the scripture and the event which alludes to the fact that this could be the case.

Does God love everybody?

Ha, what Ken, I am trying to kick off my day with a touchy, touchy, feel good, and some coffee and a cronut. Look, as we dive right in, I remember a story whereby some Mormons came to my place to share their religion. In truth, what I like to ask these traveling kids, are questions about their own beliefs. And now but these kids had stopped by for the second time, as I invited them back after giving them something to think about the first time. And so we ended up on the topic of God loving everyone which I believe is a statement that they had made. So I took them to this scripture:

Malachi 1:2-3 - “I have loved you,” says the Lord. “Yet you say, ‘In what way have You loved us?’ Was not Esau Jacob’s brother?” Says the Lord. “Yet Jacob I have loved; 3 But Esau I have hated, And laid waste his mountains and his heritage For the jackals of the wilderness.”

And so now as you can expect these ill-equipped elders were not aware that this was in the bible that they were holding. After a few awkward moments of no response, they peddled off somewhat thrown off by their own biblical ignorance. What I was trying to do was to point out, not only the fact that they were not equipped for doing what they were doing, but that they also were ignorant of the scriptures. My goal was to drive them to look at the scriptures and move away from what man states about the bible (interpretation) and get them to where they could be authentically born again and begin to get revelation imparted by the Holy Spirit. Every Mormon on the planet needs to have the born again experience to be saved. Hey yall peeps do not believe it for a moment that you can get around this one fact:

John 14:6 - Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

Ha I am right here and I am not waldo. So in the midst of recording the first of my top 10 messages that I most like, the software I have been using to record over 465 messages in less than two years all of a sudden started crashing. No but I mean like straight up into a wall with no point of return. And although Audacity is free my time isn’t especially when I have to re-record a message 5X. Now I say five times but in truth I, after I post this status will be trying to record the first of my top ten for the fifth time to see if there maybe wasn’t another thing going on. But more on that later…

Another way of saying what I saw while driving to work in driving rain is that the baptism by water and baptism by fire happens to authentically born-again Christians as well as to the planet. Ha what? Right both events happened to those called or rather predestined by God, and also to the planet, and surely there has to be a reason that I am seeing this, this morning March 05, 2024. And maybe as I motor through this message God will bless us with the totality of its meaning.

So whatever shall this mean? So I'm driving down from Paradise heading to work and this thought pops into my head as it's raining cats and dogs up here in Paradise. I was thinking about how exciting it is that God had made a promise so long ago after the first earth bath, that He would no longer destroy mankind by flood.

Gen 9:11-17 - 11 Thus I establish My covenant with you: Never again shall all flesh be cut off by the waters of the flood; never again shall there be a flood to destroy the earth.”

12 And God said: “This is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: 13 I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. 14 It shall be, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud; 15 and I will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. 16 The rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will look on it to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.” 17 And God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that is on the earth.”

What the Peter, James, and John are you saying Ken? Ha, this one came to me as I was opening up our gate at work. Now I had just started on my top-10 Christian questions and but while I was steppin’ to the gate bam. And but what I like about such messages is that it fly’s in the face of religion, not the Jesus religion, but the man-made up stuff religion including some who call themselves Christians. Oh, but I am not addressing those types in this message, and but notice I didn’t say the non-believer types, but I am referring to those who may be Christianity deceived and have glommed onto a falsy religion or even participate in a Laodicean church of which as I have already stated, and but many others too, that we are in this very church age. The Luke-warmers, and now I am not picking on the spiritually ignorant when I say this stuff, but for whatever reason it would seem like it takes a hard stroke to make a point, especially if the nail is already set it its own way. Can I get a translation Ken? What I am saying is that religious people are a very difficult bunch to teach anything new to because they don’t like being wrong or changing very much off of what they already believe (Luke 5:36-39). They are not hard to spot, and now don’t go lookin’ for them either, but if you catch the movie The Fighting Temptations you will see them and/or hear them. I will let you decide who is who.

So but I am talking about those in whom the Lord is calling but have yet to respond with a yes and an amen. Now before I prove my point and it’s a good one which is why I am saving it for the great reveal at the end of this thing, I will demonstrate the workings of some of these peeps and you can let me know if you think that they have the fruit of the spirit, the miracles, signs, and wonders, following, the calling and approval of God marked all over them. Yes you can let me know if we even have such a Christian today as they were before they, yes they even got saved. Oh, I let a paw out the bag, but not the whole cat.

These false or misidentifying traits, that is genius’s and super heroes, create division and perpetuate elevating one person above and over another. And what is wrong with doing so Ken? If I work harder than that guy, why shouldn’t I get what’s mine. Well here is a strange response. There are homeless people with more or greater talents than yours because they do not think like you do. You see not everyone has a straight shot at life. Look at how God builds the kingdom of all kingdom’s. Now but also listen to what the result is in our abilities as a Christian:

1 Cor 1:4-9 - 4 I thank my God always concerning you for the grace of God which was given to you by Christ Jesus, 5 that you were enriched in everything by Him in all [b]utterance and all knowledge, 6 even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed [c]in you, 7 so that you come short in no gift, eagerly waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ, 8 who will also confirm you to the end, that you may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

What? No short gifts for the one who is plugged in. And yet I say that many will believe that they can outperform a plugged in Christian, but I say it is not possible that this could happen if the Christian understands what happened to him when he became authentically born-again:

1 Cor 1:10 - 10 Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

Ok so this is an update on your ministry, and this is your ministry or one of them if you are a listener. Now don’t walk away to avoid your part in this thing. I have made it easy by using the teaching gift that God has imparted to me by preparing these deep water messages. By you sending a link from any one of the 30 platforms that these messages can be found on, you are performing in your ministry and preaching and teaching, although indirectly, these messages.

How cool is that? God will help you to help Him by giving you premonitions of who you might send these to. If you have a website or business of some sorts you can do the same thing. I mean are we not helping the social media bugs by using their product when we sent any and all kinds of data to our friends and others in whom we don’t even know? Yes and they are huge because of it. Now I am not picking on them as I think when used properly they can be relational in nature. How much more ought we be distributing the message of God to a world that has an ending date? An ending date that could be as soon as Sept 2025 or 2060 something. And yes, although I don’t agree with everything the author states, which is total 100 ok, his book series has a lot of great information that you might want to plant in your nuronic bank so that you do not get caught off guard. That even sounds funny right? Oh what is that? Uhmmm it’s the end of the world. What? I just bought a new Mercedez and my daughter just got married…now what are they going to do if there is no more world? Ha, but no many will get caught off guard and because of social media and news perpetuated fear, it will cause them, you, and others to poke your heads underground.

And at the risk of offending the educated group, I am now, in my 61 years of living on this rock and seeing all of the things that I have seen, and remembering 100,000 of thousands of written works by famous people as defined by famous people, by unknowns who are also famous, by grand institutions known for their famous people and contributors, and well much of in the middle as well, and if you know what that means email me so we can be on the same page. Perhaps we too can be known by the unknown to us and some of our remarks can be entered into the belly of the earth for all to be wowed by.

But, and if you haven’t caught on yet, I am somewhat frustrated by some recent readings whereby they were recommended by an author in which I liked his own written works. Just so you know, this is how I move through my reading plan. I really so try and tap into what God is trying to show me or teach me, or now a days may even want me to speak on. And but with the exception of Jesus you can ask anyone who really did only want to do and say what God is saying, that it is not an easy task. Oh He is not the difficult one in the relationship, we are. You see we have a thing called our pre-salvation got mud up, all into everywhere, and thought we actually knew how to live on a planet ravaged by sin, and under the sway of the evil one, and all of this before we could actually even walk. Our pre-conceived ideas about what God is, who He is, why He is, and what He has to do with us as well as the other way around, can get us a little mixed up.

Ok so first things first, this morning Feb 09 2024 I did an interview with Wavve.co which is an audio to video conversion company. I wasn’t interviewing but providing feedback as to my thoughts on using their platform. They, in essence wanted feedback on their product. Now how nice of a world would it be, if every company actually wanted to know if they were 1) providing a product that the public wanted and doing it well, 2) seeking input from the end user on its effectiveness, and userability and 3) asking if they could make it better for you and future users. Five stars to Jeff and that company to involve their customers in product improvement and userability, both of which included very little input because they do what they do so well. And yes I made userability one word. Ha, but what I am trying to say is that by them reaching out, it took them to the next level.

Most companies do not do this because they do not care. No, it’s not that they do not have the time or resources, but that they don’t want to hear what you think. And this may be that they might think that the feedback you would give would be negative or maybe even counter productive in terms of what they are trying to sell. Hey company peeps, any feedback is useful if it can help you to get to the point where you are operating in excellence. And I think that your audience, the end user, is way more informed about your product than even you are at times. You know that this is true if you have never sought out input from the people who pay you to make a living. Yes I am being hard but helpful. If you want to succeed then tap into your untapped into resource, and often times it is a free resource, to measure your effectiveness. And no, don’t just trust in auto data, A.I., to inform you of your effectiveness. Listen, drug dealers, if you were to measure your effectiveness by money piles alone, would exceed any and all of your marketing strategies that you pay top dollar for, if you in fact used money piles alone to determine success. They spend no money on marketing and smoke you in how much money is left on the table. And that right there my friends is the key. It is not how much money you make but how much you leave on the table. It is in fact how much you could have made but didn’t that makes the difference.

OK so I was working on a message titled One foot in One Foot Out Means You're Out, when this thing popped into my head and it was probably Pop who dropped it. So I am now working on this new message, which will be a clarification of something I often talk about but also about something that I also read about in a great book series. And but when I read about it in this book series, I did not agree with the authors position on this, and it is part because I feel that I have done the reading and research as well as having been a part of several church address communities and that the idea that, and here is the statement paraphrased, “God is not shocked that we have so many denominations.” And so for some context he was indicating in the text that it is ok that we have so much variety in the church today. Now so another way we could look at this conundrum is to simply state that choosing to attend a church is as easy as selecting a meal off of a 15-page menu that serves a little bit of every culture from 5-countries. Ha, I know you have seen some of those menu’s. I feel that in some cases you should at least get a two-year degree after working that menu over.

So to be clear that analogy is to say that this person thinks that it is ok that we have so many different choices. But to get to that conclusion you would have to back a truckload of revelatory information and consider not the differences in doctrine or theology. And maybe if we chatted about it he might be more clear when making such sweeping statements. And why would I care? Because these are the statements that perpetuate the current problem that we have with this mostly manmade institution. Yes, Jesus did not point to a corner spot in Jerusalem and tell Peter on that corner address I will build my church. Ha, no and but there is nothing wrong with having a corner address. The problem is when we do it while departing from doing church Gods way.

Wow this got big fast. And that is just how I like it. Its like unravelling a golf ball which is not just a little bit interesting.

The most convincing lies look like the truth and it is this very fact that will prove that many will slip away from God as we draw closer to the end. Oh ken not another one of these. Yup but nope. I do not speak too much of the end times insofar as the end times go. Not that I shouldn’t but just that I am not right now called to speak on it because I am but just now starting to look into it. Why? Well, because I do know that while Donald Trump was our President, and throughout his term things were clearly off insofar as our country goes. I think God was showing us that we are in hot water and that we have misplaced our faith in things such as the democratic system over the things of God. I mean and this is just me, as you are also able to have an opinion, how could so many of us Christians have it wrong? In these, no those and these days, how could we be so far apart. We truly looked no different than our unbelieving neighbor. In more cases than not, you could not tell a Christian apart from one who did not believe in God. Why is this? Because they were getting their information from the same source. And the source is designed to tell a lie so good that it looks like the truth.

Oh there it is. Yup, therein lies the trigger and the point of this message. If you are prone to believing what anyone states that is in direct conflict with what the bible states, then you are in trouble and susceptible to losing salvation ground. What, how can you say such a thing Ken. Ah now that we have your attention let us see how satan operates and how he will continue to operate as we draw nearer, in fact, we truly are only minutes, heavenly minutes, from the end, or should I say the beginning of the end. I have at least two authors, or rather believers who believe that the end of times, or tribulation started near the 1950’s or so. And if you are a data looker and look upon the statistics and world events that have taken place since about that time you can but ask, how much worse does it need to get for us to ask how much worse is it going to get and will I be here or in the greatest mess known to mankind (Matt 24:21-22).

I was thinking of titling this brief testimony, “Wind Talker And Then The Real Story”, but I think it is too many words for such a short message.

So it is always good for all of us authentically born again believers to share when God moves in our lives. It is expected that we do so because He Himself stated:

Rev 12:11 - And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.

Wow I think it is too early for such a scripture. Ha, but no I used it so that you could understand the value of sharing your testimony, and in part that value is that you can overcome the devil and whatever he brings your way by sharing what God is doing in your life with others.

So I have shared previously that I have prayed when the wind was jus getting crazy on my trees in Paradise Ca. And at times they would come crashing down taking a bunch others with it. now none have landed on our home which is expected because why would God tell me to move to Paradise Ca to take me out when He could have done that so many other times in my life when I was a wild prodigal.

And but at least three other times including during a snow storm I commanded the wind to stop and it did. And but now in this event I had read in a pop up from X the new twitter and fear spreader of America. We know that fear likes an audience and X provides that. So I read something to the effect that the winds were going to be dangerous in this storm.

This is a sporty shorty and but still is intended to help those who even today with all of our medical advances, still walk around spiritually blind thinking that they are in with Jesus. Ha, show me a Doctor who can cure spiritual blindness and I will show you an authentic born-again believer preaching the gospel in power, yes the power of God.

How you measure what you are assessing determines the outcome of what you think about what you are assessing.

Another way to see this is to know that you are wrong about what you think about other humans way more than you know. And when you look at them through a judging lens, the distortion of your opinion can be blinding to your own self.

James 4:11 - Do not speak evil of one another, brethren. He who speaks evil of a brother and judges his brother, speaks evil of the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge.

Judging another because they do not meet your idea or standard of how they should live, only exacerbates your spiritual blindness. The Pharisees struggled with this all of the time. It is the same spirit. And lo if you are back-slidden or have walked away from God, and not ready to come back home oh ye prodigal, then you can be prone and susceptible to supporting your weakened spiritual position by criticizing others who are not back-sliding or who have walked away from God. And refusing their help is ant- God. He joined us together so that we would find help in our time of trouble.

So when commercial fishermen go out they usually take a crew of about 3 to 6 guys to handle the potential catch. Yes some boats have more depending on how large it is and how many fish that they harvest from the sea. They when they are loaded up or our of bait, they return to shore and drop off their payload, which then goes into a factory where many staff are waiting to process the harvest. Now I don’t know the process in a fishing factory but working a decade in lumber now doubt it works similarly.

The fish must be separated into species, grades, sizes, and what not. And before I move on, the season of fish runs do, no doubt determine what process is used in the factories. So but now back to the fishing story and the point of this tale.

A few peeps catch a large amount of fish, which is then processed by more people than who caught them. Works the same in mining or the lumber industry whereby a few harvest the lumber in comparison to the many that process the lumber in a lumber company. Back in my day 1981 – 1990 we had about 900 staff in just one location processing the lumber. We would never see 900 people up in the woods cutting down trees and driving them down to their final destinies for just one company.

I am getting down to my point, a point that has been made in several other messages, and that point is…drum roll please…

We should not be sending out the whole church to do the fishing for men and equipping so few to care for the harvest once it comes in. Ha, ha do you see it now?

My first title of this message was going to be “Where's Solomon.” But then as it began to evolve and morph, it became clear that God may have been taking me in another direction. And well but I say may because isn’t it always the case that when something so…well, intriguing lands on the pages, it can go sometimes beyond what even you or in this case I had suspected. But then as I am reading this through to clean it up and prep to lay it to voice, I see that something epic has indeed landed on these pages. I never did see the end of this topic at its beginning. Nope, I was just wondering if Solomon had remained in salvation given what he did at the end of his life. Not that this wouldn’t have been a great issue to discuss as if it were possible that he did then it is indeed possible that we too can do the same thing and that sounds like it is important to discuss. But as God has done throughout my life, He likes to say what He likes to say and expects us to be a precise voice as we represent His message. Ha, maybe Moses knew this up front which is why he did not want to be that voice (Ex 3:10-11, 4:10-16, Acts 7:22) I added the scripture from Acts as we should see that maybe he just did indeed know. Ha.

I then came up with the spy life of beauty because it appears to be an unmanageable force in our lives and one of the most, if not the most corrupted God attributes if ever He did create one. Now not that He corrupted it, oh no like all things God to us it was corrupted by sin and our fight as believers today is to discern the authentic from the corrupted.

So but let’s kick this thing off and remember I do consider this to be one of the more revelatory messages that I have got, not because of the thought that the evidence of what I am saying is insufficient to support it, as we only need to be open to what is right now happening every minute of every day right around us. Oh this is so clearly evident it does concern me not just a little. And not just for the truth of it but because I dared to touch it in spite of my own life-long struggles with it. Hidden in plain sight. You know, and I will get it going in a minute, it has to fall into the same category of food. What I mean is that we all get hungry, and if you struggle with how much food or what kinds of food you eat which contributes to unhealthy weight gains, you of all people know the struggles other may not know or see right? For others, few others by the way, they eat and move on about their day, but for you, you see all of the bill boards, TV ads, coupons in papers and magazines, social media ads, ads, ads, ads everywhere. You cannot go anywhere where there is not some kind of temptation when it comes to food.

Well I guess I should explain the title just a minute because it can be a bit misleading if taken at face value. What I am really saying is that the rib taken out of Adam to create Eve, and the sword that pierced Jesus side breaking not one rib is one story about fulfilling a prophetic word spoken by king David, and God pointing out the future of mankind which is that it is not good that man be alone. So just a sideline being a bachelor or player is usually played by those who are actually lonely inside and know not how to stop being alone. They are not good being single nor are they good even if they drive a Bugatti up Mulholland Drive. A woman completes a man. Let’s support this revelation before we get too deep too fast:

Gen 2:21-22 - 21 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. 22 Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He [a]made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.

Oh the coolness as Adam was made from a pile of dirt, and then only after he was made, was a woman was taken from his very side and made. Neither had a belly button, and but what is stranger is the fact that Adam received the breadth of God straight from the mouth of God but the first woman did not come into the earth the same way. I don’t know, I am just trying to take this message one way and it seems as though it may be going in another. It is probable that she too also needed the breath of God but I don’t want to assume that just because God was silent on the matter. And but he may not even been silent on the matter but she may have been made alive differently than Adam considering how she came into the world. The bible doesn’t say that but it is just me wrestling with God on the matter. Now let’s stay in the boat and go with it shall we?

All of the little and large lies have a purpose which is to train you how to differentiate the lie from the truth. And your conscious is there to help you. But then the whole of truth is that there is also an enemy to the truth and but to make it more interesting it comes born in human form. It is a spirit and but takes up residency in a human host. Let's remind my Christian learners of that story before getting on with this story after all you need to know this story so that you don't shout me down when you hear the rest of it.

Tic toc time to take a walk:

John 8:44 - 44 You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.

Let’s hit it:

Phil 4:4-8 - 4 Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!

5 Let your [a]gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.

6 Be anxious (3X) for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

And I cannot but help to think that if we do the following it will because of two things, the first is that we have conquered anxiousness, and the other is that by doing these things it will keep us from falling into that pit again.

8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.

So now besides all of the great stuff in that scripture, I must define another word that meditate has triggered in my mind. And I need to do so because I think that that there is a great misunderstanding about the word that is so similar to this word meditate that people have been convinced to throw the baby out with the bathwater. Now but there is a path that can lead a person to meditate on the wrong things right (Pro 23:7)? Yes, but knowing what we should be thinking about and what we should not, we can manage those thoughts. Let’s look at meditations twin brother - D-Com please:

Ruminate:

verb (used without object),ru·mi·nat·ed, ru·mi·nat·ing.

1. to meditate or muse; ponder.
2. Psychology. to obsessively revisit the same thought or theme over and over again.

verb (used with object),ru·mi·nat·ed, ru·mi·nat·ing.

1. to chew again or over and over.

Well so this is a fishing story of stories. Yes, it is based on the fact that even though I caught it and placed it in my freezer it still got away. Yup, it is the one that got away story; and but now it didn’t break the line as there was no fight left in it, it was in my freezer. So now but how it got away is less of concern than why it got away, and but I say that this can happen to anyone regardless of fishing skill level. Because this fishing story can be applied to anything that we do that God disapproves of. Yes, at some point in your Christian maturity God is going to stop letting you off the hook so to speak.

Ha, growing as a Christian means that you will know when you are about to disappoint God and that in doing so you will get an alien reaction. Yup, you will always be presented with a way out but as us humans go we often overlook the way out and head towards the door of temptation to get what we want:

James 1:13-15 – 13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone. 14 But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. 15 Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.

Well so I think I should inform you that there will be a lot of scriptural references in this message. Normally I include the scripture in the message so that you have some context and support of the message. However, in this message it has developed quite interestingly, in that a particular paragraph might contain five or more scriptural references, but if I were to stop to read each scripture we would totally lose the paragraph. So it is intended in this message that you look up the scriptures to see that what I am saying is fully supported from the bible. Why Ken is this so important. Well, in this case it is because as you look up the scriptural references I believe you will be stirred to look up similar scriptures and in doing so there will be a release or impartation into your spirit whereby you will believe and act on the supernatural power that God has given you. We are to be supernatural Christians turning the world, our own little world if that helps, upside down. You should have a reputation of operating in love, serving, and preaching the gospel in power (1 Cor 4:20, Rom 15:18-19, Matt 22:29, Matt 9:8).

So but we will transition from discussing the power of God that you may have and operate in, or not, and in truth probably not, and then transition to staying away from getting under someone else’s power. I.E ending up under their thumb.

Let’s go…

Hey Ken shouldn’t this say the life that ends before “it” dies? Yup but nope. You see the message is for you and is intended to teach you how to check your own Christian effectiveness pulse and see if you are alive to all things God or if you gave up on Him and His pre-paid by Jesus package which has all of the instructions you need to be more than a conqueror in Him (Rom 8:37). Right?

I know how could any Christian be living outside of their calling and purpose and consider themselves alive in Christ (Rom 6:11)? Oh, now you’re meddling Ken. Nope, I am just like you, destined to attend the same after-life on earth meeting as you will be, and I think it is better if you and I chat about your earthly Christian death before you or I have to explain it to Jesus. Again, better you and I have this conversation now so that you can change the outcome with Jesus at your future predestined date. Yes, even your death is predestined.

If you think He will be tolerant of laziness, purposeful ignorance I.E. not reading your bible, or wants you to tell Him the story about how you a Christian had lived your life with one foot in and one foot out, then no doubt you know a Jesus I do not know nor have read about in my bible. Oh I know this just got real, but God gave us each other because we all have blind spots, and no matter how much anointing you have, you will still need others from time to time to point those things out hiding in them thar blind spots. I know that I have them and therefore pay attention to what others say when they think that they see something. No, not everything others say will be spot on but some of those things will be and they will be warnings and corrections sent by God.

Wow Ken I heard you were a straight out of the gate Paradise Podcast Preacher teacher but this stings a bit. If it doesn’t you are either already dead and desensitized to the things of God and unable to hear or see Him, or you are still alive enough to change course, or to get on course, and/or to be encouraged to continue down the course as you are. The sting is a form of hope, and it is for this reason we are embarking down this trail and not climbing up a tree.

Why is this a gift and how can it make our lives more in line with Gods? That is that by being patient we are acting and behaving just like God does towards us and the rest of humanity. Yes from the beginning of time until the very end of it. You see we will not need patience once we are living in our salvation and everything it represents. So but now I must first define it as there are a lot of words in the definition of which if I had the time I might do as I have done in the past which is to define everyone one of them. But, yes but in this case I should ask that you D-Com the definition of patience and any and all of the words that you do not completely understand so that you have a thorough understanding of what this gift means:

noun

1. the quality of being patient, as the bearing of provocation, annoyance, misfortune, or pain, without complaint, loss of temper, irritation, or the like.
2. an ability or willingness to suppress restlessness or annoyance when confronted with delay:

adjective

1. bearing provocation, annoyance, misfortune, delay, hardship, pain, etc., with fortitude and calm and without complaint, anger, or the like.

This is like the fullness of the Gospel short of love, although that may not be true because you will need to conquer you in every way, all of your wild and immature behavior that will rise up to defend itself when trouble shows up. Look, we haven’t even got to the 25 bible examples of how patience was used or how it is offered to us as a commandment that we ought to be patient.

I wanted to open up with a perspective about sin that, when we catch someone in a Hanus crime such as a great big biblical sin, especially by those that openly confess that they don’t believe in God, and yet but believe that they know anything about someone else’s sin as they themselves blaspheme the Holy Spirit, that God sees it differently than you do. Look at why God selected king David:

1 Sam 13:14 - But now your kingdom shall not continue. The Lord has sought for Himself a man after His own heart, and the Lord has commanded him to be commander over His people, because you have not kept what the Lord commanded you.”

You can miss both easter eggs if you are not careful in your reading or listening to that verse. But not today because I will show you where they are at. But first I must fetch the scriptural basket to catch these eggs:

2 Thess 1:8 - 8 in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Egg number one, “a man after His own heart”, as compared to “those who do not know God.” If you are inclined to be after the heart of God then you will “know” Him right? So king David desired to know God to which Paul stated in 2nd Thessalonians that it was one of the criteria to avoid the vengeance of God. We will get to why that is an important position to take with God in a minute. The second egg is that God saw that David was a good listener, and we can see this by understanding that God would not replace a commander who did not stay with what the Lord commanded him, with another person who would have had the same issue. And we see the fullness of the second egg because in Thessalonians Gods vengeance also applied to the non-listener as well as to those who did not or do not know Him.

Now these three, Judgement, Condemnation, & Conviction can be considered train-wrecking power words by our misunderstanding of them. Each has a place in ministry be it making disciples or equipping the saints for the work of ministry or as Timmy states in:

2 Tim 3:16-17 - 16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

Now if these three are used incorrectly, like a knife, gun, pen or our words, they can inflict such pain as to turn someone away from even the idea of living with a God defined as love. No but imagine what I just said here. They would be so injured inside that they would decide, even if for a moment or week or years, that living in hell apart from all-things God, that this is a better option. And but for the uninjured we could see the absolute ridiculousness in it, but it is not so for the injured. We could even say for the offended.

This is why I think God dropped this message in my heart. Maybe it’s because I needed to process through it myself. But no one that I am aware of has God precisely dialed in as we ought.

So the word accusation is a stopgap that someone uses to resist the Holy Spirits work in their lives. Accusation never did raise up a disciple of God but of the other guy. Now you might think this is a strong leap out of the gate but if you find yourself in a defensive posture in every conversation that has to do with your speech and actions, then you are not receiving the help of God but are pushing His love of correction away. Yes, He states rod of correction in one place but then also states in another that He corrects those in whom He loves. And you might say, there you see Ken, all corrections, rebukes, and disciplines should be brought to me like God would bring them to me. And but though this would be ideal, the real issue is not the delivery but your openness to grow and to be a disciple that is willing to change. You either do or don’t period. I know that’s as straight as I can say it, but there are way too many of us playing games, self-assured in our open rebellion against all things God, that He will accept us and our modified version of what it is to be a Christian. Yes, you have to modify your Christianity if you operate from a spirit of accusation. So now we need to D-Com some words so that we know what they mean, not what we think they mean but what they really mean. It’s like knowing what kind of ammo you are using when hunting, and not just grabbing any-ol-thing and launching out into the wilderness.

Accusation:

noun

1. a charge of wrongdoing; imputation of guilt or blame.
2. the specific offense charged:

Imputation:

verb (used with object),im·put·ed, im·put·ing.

1. to attribute or ascribe
2. to attribute or ascribe (something discreditable), as to a person.

John 14:12 - 12 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.

So again the title of this message is “Doing The Works of Jesus”. Hum Randol why did Ken bring un the title again? I think he is trying to tell us to hold on because this is a separator or disruptor type of message. What do you mean, is he trying to create division. Oh no you will have to read his 4th book coming out in 2024 titled for now, “The Sword That Rightly Divides Rightly.” Wow, that’s a really weird name for a book title. You must know Ken very well. Ha, but no this message will allow you to learn whether you are being effective as a Christian or if you are being lazy or somehow you fell in love with god ignorance and just decided to ignore all things God because He is a good God and requires nothing from nothing. Ah, I can hear Ken saying that yes we were at one point in time nothing, but now we are god-kids restored to the Father who gave us the Holy Spirit that we would wage war and get to know Him at all, yes, all costs and to listen to what He asks from each and every one of us. We have been given authority, in other words, or in addition to those words Ken has already spoken of, to do all that Jesus did and more. So a little more and then we get to it.

Let’s look at another supporting scripture as to why we read the bible and attend a church that is equipping the saints for the work of ministry and making disciples, and teaching those of faith to teach others also:

2 Tim 3:16-17 - 16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for [a]instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

I feel unqualified to delve into such things as this from the position that I will be trying to take. And I say so because really there are others who have done a better job at explaining these kind of things. So why do it Ken? Because it occurred to me when I was read a book this past Sunday that something strange bumped into my current thinking. Allow me to share. So I have done more than one message and a book soon to be released down the road, on whether if you could lose your salvation standing or not. And I did it from some of the same scriptures that I will be using in this message, but from a new angle. We will take a look at the inerrancy of God predestining His peeps to salvation which if this is the case there is no guesswork as to who name is in the book of Life and who’s is not. It is finished before it started, so to speak. The other angle is that your name could be in the book of Life but because you went south in your walk with God your name vanished from the book. I will provide the scripture and the event which alludes to the fact that this could be the case. And but now we can’t have one thing cancel out another, you see the bible doesn’t contradict itself. And so when I go to that part of the story in a minute, I will express my concern for the proof of name in the book and then removed from the book so as to leave some doubt as to whether it really is a name in and then name out scenario.

Luke 10:17-20 - 17 Then the [a]seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.”

18 And He said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. 19 Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 20 Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but [b]rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.”

Ok so now we know that Judas was with these guys as he was a part of the original 12-disciples. And we can ponder the fact that this must have looked strange to satan after the fact, when he entered into Judas later in the story considering that Judas was casting out demons from others (Luke 22:3). But so in this scripture we see that Jesus corrected their over-zealous joy in the power that they yielded over the demons by saying, “rejoice because your names are written in heaven.” Luke 22:47-48 shows us that clearly Judas no longer considered it a valuable commodity that his name is written in heaven. Invisible ink? I don’t know but let’s continue to see if there is any relevance in adding this little ditty to the message.

Shall we open this up with a testimony of epic proportions? Yes Ken who got healed? Ha, but so that would be awesome as nothing is impossible with God and us, we and/or them right? No but this is the relational part of God that I think can often get overlooked. It’s the touchy, touchy feely, feely miracles of God that can sometimes be overlooked. Oh how much He cares about the minutest part of our lives, and I believe He does so just in hopes that we would 1), ask Him, and 2) that we would recognize Him when he responds to the ask regardless of how small the ask or un-asked.

So I was loading my splitter on my truck and did the normal prep for towing that I usually do. And but there was this Holy Spirit nudge, and so I asked, “hey God am I ready to tow? Did I miss anything?” and as I did that immediately a little pin swing arm started moving at the bottom of the splitter. This pin holds up the front legs which supports the 1000lbs beast. Now had that pin slipped out to which it would have because the swing arm was not set in place to hold the pin in, the legs would have dropped down in tow and tow (tore) a whole bunch of things up, including possibly detaching the splitter from the truck. Swing, swing, swing. It is as if God flicked that little swing arm so that I could see that it wasn’t set in place. Small but big? No matter, I was working with God hand-in-hand in relationship and it is this that make the moment so big. He has our very small matters as well as the big ones. Do not think that you should be in anyway screening out the insignificant should-be-prayer-requests out of your life because you think that they would be nothing more than a nuisance to God. Hey if it was your kid making the ask, no matter how small, 1) you would respond and 2) you would not wanted him or her to have withheld the ask. It’s called relationship.

This message is based on a portion of my new book titled, “A New Creation” soon to be published. Let’s foundation this:

2 Cor 5:17 - Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

What in all of everything wasn’t finished by the Word, the pre-Jesus of our earth? You, but, and well I won’t go into the fact that all of what we see happening here on earth has, well, already happened in eternity. It more or less started and ended before it began in time. You can read 1 Peter 1:20 for some light revelation regarding that, but for the sake of getting too squirrely on these wet roads, I must get back to the main subject which is that you are a new creation so stop acting like the old created you. What Ken, sharp out the gate? Ha, but hey were friends now right? Remember all of my messages are designed and intended to bring about change. You see you would think that humans think change is some kind of a disease based on our reaction to it when it is that time to do exactly that. Me included. I had my whole life mapped out in my 20’s. Yup, I was going to work at Sierra Pacific Lumber company my whole life and then retire with a 401k and social security. I was going to continue to build show and race VW’s and becoming a small time parts distributor for these lil bugs. Yup, and I was going to be an Oakland A’s and Raiders fan and watch all of their games until I up and died in my retirement chair. All planned out. Oh how small my plan was when after getting saved and looking back over 40-years of life how Gods plan was completely different for my life.

When, and I may be getting ahead of myself, but that’s ok as long as I get it in the message, when I became a new creation, all and I mean all, of my plans dissolved over time and I became all together something else. I cannot say this emphatically enough. Every bit of what I thought I would become which really wasn’t much was being erased from my plans for my life absent of God. No my personality and talents remained intact and immature, they were illuminated to me to be a key factor in how I would move forward in life and eventually being prepared to be used more strategically for His, not my, but for His purposes. It was the great exchange whereby I surrendered my very small oh so very small life for His life in me and for me. Oh the greatest exchange to have ever taken place. No like we dream and conjure up these ideas like what if I were a super-hero? What super powers would I have? And yet right standing outside the door of your mind and heart is He the One that gave us the ability to even think about super-heroes. And but if He were invited in, you could in ministry when you are ready, called and matured for it can pray for healing or a miracle, sign, and/or a wonder and it would happen. Imagine Moses touched the shores of a sea and the water folded back on itself until a dry path wide enough for 5000 people arm and arm to cross over at the same time until all of the millions made it to the other side. If that is not super-hero stuff in your mind, you might need to go to a Rodney Howard Brown service and in doing so you will become befuddled at the work of God in humanity.

You have nothing to add to God but your heart - give him that and he will turn you into a genuine supernatural super-human.

Double vision? Why yes of course. The title is so Saturday morning that I had to say it twice with the extension added to the second. I mean here we are on a Monday going through the editing of the message, and I can’t but be totally excited that God got me up 4:am-ish to speak this one into existence from, la la land. See how He wants so much to be in relationship with us? He’s like looking down from heaven asking, “hey you awake yet, how bout now, how bout now - hu, hu”

Ha, no but right straight away you will be more, more, more than a conquer, if you surrender your heart completely and totally, yes 100 to God (Rom 8:37).

You see this answer’s your right now question, and Solomon's as well when he stated in Ecclesiastes, well lets hear it from his own lips - well ok but so you get what I mean ha:

Eccl 2:12-21 - Then I turned myself to consider wisdom and madness and folly;
For what can the man do who succeeds the king?—
Only what he has already done.
13 Then I saw that wisdom excels folly
As light excels darkness.
14 The wise man’s eyes are in his head,
But the fool walks in darkness.
Yet I myself perceived
That the same event happens to them all.

15 So I said in my heart,
“As it happens to the fool,
It also happens to me,
And why was I then more wise?”
Then I said in my heart,
“This also is vanity.”
16 For there is no more remembrance of the wise than of the fool forever,
Since all that now is will be forgotten in the days to come.
And how does a wise man die?
As the fool!

17 Therefore I hated life because the work that was done under the sun was distressing to me, for all is vanity and grasping for the wind.

18 Then I hated all my labor in which I had toiled under the sun, because I must leave it to the man who will come after me. 19 And who knows whether he will be wise or a fool? Yet he will rule over all my labor in which I toiled and in which I have shown myself wise under the sun. This also is vanity. 20 Therefore I turned my heart and despaired of all the labor in which I had toiled under the sun. 21 For there is a man whose labor is with wisdom, knowledge, and skill; yet he must leave his [a]heritage to a man who has not labored for it. This also is vanity and a great evil.

So I decided to go on a scripture overload so as to show you how they support the message and how it is that I can come up with a message for anyone who may not know that the story or parable is fully supported by scripture. Please write them down, or if you are so inclined you can stop, look them up, and move on, if it doesn’t feel like your in a canoe on choppy waters in the Atlantic Ocean in a winter storm.

I am a disruptor.

Disruption follows a disruptor. Any time you stand for what is right in evil days, in days of evil, is a disruption to evil and his brother. When God is actively removed from a culture then the culture is inclined to become occultic. Yes of course I am talking to you Christians with a fat Buddha statue in your flowerbed or on your porch.

Yup, we have God's own people to thank, and I say this not out of sarcasm, as we are now repeating the sins that separated them from God back in their day. So it is Israel we should thank. One is compelled to ask why we write anything of helpfulness down if we are not the tiniest bit inclined to follow it's advice, instruction, and even it's command. They scribed their mess with God, ought not we pay some attention to how that happened?

I mean ought we not feel embarrassed at the fact that what we have sown what we have reaped, and reaped what we have sown? And yet we were told that, this is how the principle works. We should be red-faced as the whole world got to see the judgement of God fall on His, yuppy puppy, His self-declared own people. Did we not know, you know, back in the days when we were more sanctified and reverent towards Him, that if we declare that He is our one and only God and Father, that it comes as a two-sided coin. One of necessary correction in love and the other in blessing? And but are they not both blessings anyways?

So I return to this message as I myself am in need of healing. I didn’t do it on purpose or to demonstrate to you that I am on top of every subject that I have sitting in my Q, and that when things come up, I know right where to go. Ha, nope. This is not me. I sat here this very morning (September 14th 2023 Thursday), talking to God about why my gout has flared up and whether it has a spiritually legal right to be attacking my body. I’m not a good pain guy whatever that is. When I was younger I would cry before the first lick of the belt would come sailing my way. Nope, don’t do well with pain. So but then this is why I go to God regarding any sicknesses or diseases that tries to embed itself into my life. Well that and the fact that Jesus stated I that when I was born again I received as part of my benefits package a certificate of healing (Is 53:5 / 1 Peter 2:24), and that my carrier was Red Cross and not Blue Cross. Ha right that’s just me. Oh wait not the Red Cross but His red cross; almost lost that one to lost semantics.

So but wait as we have a commercial interruption. As I am typing this message out Thursday remember, out of no where which is usually somewhere, I got what I can only explain as a 15-min flu. Yup, right here and then. My temperature shot up to only God knows what, I could feel the heat tingle right up both of my arms like pins and needles. Insto-swet, clothes all wet and I am on my way to the restroom. A few minutes later and I am on my way home, and even while I am on my way home I am feeling great ceptin the gout shout in my foot. I remember thinking what is going on that I would feel so badly in one moment, and then out of no where as quickly as it came, it left. My thoughts were, as I was heading into the weekend with this event still swirling around in my head, that it must have something to do with this message. I mean I am talking about believing in healing so you can receive your red cross benefits from Jesus and pow. So anyway, don’t need to know the devils business so I am back September 18th 2023 Monday to finish what I started.

This portion of the message came to me after I did what is now the second part of what I thought was going to be the first and only part of the message. And but this message in totality is discussing Christians who get taken out due to trials and tribulations and give up on God and what they can do to get back in the game. It’s a shorty but important if you are one who is watching Christianity go by, and by the way if you can see it let me know because I have been dying to see it. Ha but no joke it’s become a rare bird.

So now but I really felt that it was missing something, because I get around people who were Christians in title, yes I say Christians in title, who have changed their original Christian behavior after getting offended by other believers, the church, or other people in general, and then because of the excuse that those offenses have occurred, they go back to seeking all the pleasures of the world, swearing up a storm, watching nothing but negative this and negative that on the TV, they have become nothing but negative speakers always finding fault in everything, always concerned about stuff that they don't have any control over, and then tell you, and this is very important if it’s you and I am sorry but if you have fallen this deep you may not know it’s you, that this is actual you, but you can know if it’s you because you will claim when challenged on your lifestyle choices, that you are still okay with God. This is one of the most painful things to experience in Christianity.

So we have the five-fold ministry gifts where we previously have talked about in the book of Ephesians. Look Jesus Himself gave some to be Apostle’s, Prophets, Evangelist, Pastors, and Teachers. Let’s look as it is the heart of this ministry that we get to doing this very thing. Better to do that, than to hope God does see the church the way you do. Rev 1:2 thru 3:22 tells us of what He will think about the church if he doesn’t already. And no doubt you want to hear what I think, ha, ok so but anyway, I will let you know which is that I think we are in the last age of the 7-churches and I think that many of us will miss the event because we really are not plugged in. See let’s walk a narrow unrelated but related path shall we? Luke states that many will try and get into the Kingdom of God and will not be able, and Matthew states that the gate is narrow and there are few who find it because it is difficult. Ha, see the key as to why the easy-livers may not get in? Ok so but then we continue on with Him stating, that is God, that He will come as a thief in the night. Here are the thief in the night scriptures as well as a glimmer of hope scripture that well gives us who really want to forsake all to follow God so that we find the narrow path. And don’t think for a minute that the narrow path excludes those who are in cults or false religions, or that do not nor were ever made to believe. The kids of satan – the vessels made for dishonor. Let’s first look at the scriptures that I referred to in this paragraph before I refer to Ephesians list of gifts:

1 John 3:10 - In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother.

So this is going to be an experiment in sound effects. I wanted the message to be more serious but no, seriously, more on that later. And well I have a surprise for the listeners of this message which is that my first book has been accepted by a publisher as of August 31, 2023. What this means is that the ministry will begin to prepare material that will help to equip you for the work of ministry and to help you to settle into being a disciple and being a disciple that will reproduce disciples (Matt 28:19). For those of you that think that God cannot use you for what you don’t have just kill those thoughts and listen to His voice for your ministry and start running. No but ok so you can walk the first five steps then you can move to a brisk walk, then a jog, and then when you are ready, or not, a full-blown sprint. Time is a tickin’ and we don’t have much of that left when you compare it to eternity. No opportunities lost in our generation, right?

The overly dramatic ministry of Jesus. Oh boy this is going to be good for those of you that don’t like heavenly party poppers (Sound). In other words you hear stuff that is so far beyond anything you have been taught in church that you think the guy who is sharing that stuff, as you imagine him standing next to John the Baptizer eating crickets in suckers (Sound), as one who is far from the quiet peaceful heaven that you imagine. But listen, they called Jesus crazy, and Paul was told that he was out of his mind due to looking into this God stuff with every fiber of his being. And what of the Apostles who were killed because they were so, so, so disruptive to the prevailing cult and religious cultures of the day. Oh I would name all of the false gods, false religions, and cults of those days, but no need as we have found a way to add volume to that mess through our own getting sideways in this relationship with God stuff versus religion with God stuff.

Acts 26:24 - 24 Now as he thus made his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, “Paul, you are beside yourself! Much learning is driving you mad!”

Mark 3:20-21 - 20 Then the multitude came together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread. 21 But when His own people heard about this, they went out to lay hold of Him, for they said, “He is out of His mind.”

Acts 12:15 - But they said to her, “You are beside yourself!” Yet she kept insisting that it was so. So they said, “It is his angel.”

It’s one thing to read a book and be warmed by it’s story, and another to be warned by its story. Now I am talking about Christian books; about Christianity, those who ran before us, books about revivals and great awakenings, the history of the church, the birth of Protestantism, just on this side of church craziness, including the things that the Catholic church was involved in and in fact still may have that original spirit which is anti-Christ that caused them to do those things in the first place; anti-Christ or anti-Christian for you specific-tarians. This view comes from the fact that they took out and killed authentic Christians because they were well Christians. You will have to read the books on that mess and be ready to hear from those like them that those books are all lies, all lies. The birth of Pentecostalism and the burp of the charismatic movement which was not limited to but included the Jesus movement which included so many world-wide hippy hoppies. Ha by the way this is a great movie. 

So but now what’s up today? In our day. This is our Christian timeframe for adding to the kingdom of God those who are heading to hell. I mean, well what I mean to say; I see and have witnessed that something is just a bit off with our business as usual churchy mentality. I mean where is the headlines about anything God other than mostly in really small circles? No, no, no I mean where is God moving and doing the things that Jesus was doing? Well and more than Jesus was doing, as this was our promise, which is that we would and that we should, and that we would desire to do so. You see it just seems like no one is paying any attention, and if they are, whoever they are, they don’t have to let me know, I am not anyone but a spiritual wondering wonderer.

The Base Things of The World - Boom, boom, boom no not that kind of base, but the base that is the bottom or defined as the bottom. Our first and primary scripture for this message comes to us out of a conversation Paul was having with the Corinthians.

So but now this goes out to all of those peeps that had lunch in high school alone, for all of those in whom the pop kids laughed at, for the kid who had to run home every day to avoid being ramble-rumbled by the football and gym rats. Oh this is a message to the nerds who well, migrated in camps in small herds being mocked for being smart. Hum, is this a sign of the times when the smart kids are made fun of because they are smart? Well, I am running out of examples so let’s get to scripturing:

Base, base, base things:

1 cor 1:18-31 - 18 For the [a]message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written:

“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”

20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the [b]disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe. 22 For Jews request a sign, and Greeks seek after wisdom; 23 but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a [c]stumbling block and to the [d]Greeks foolishness, 24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

26 For [e]you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many [f]noble, are called. 27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; 28 and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, 29 that no flesh should glory in His presence. 30 But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption— 31 that, as it is written, “He who glories, let him glory in the Lord.”

I was thinking of titling this message “Family First Bra” but however “Family First Braata” both mean the same thing, and but so but this message is about the dichotomy of this title, especially by those who have been authentically born again. Now if you are like me you want to know what dichotomy means as I am not really into using fancy language for the sake of the language itself, but because it actually says what I mean it to say and in this case in less words.

D”Com: dichotomy

1. division into two parts, kinds, etc.; subdivision into halves or pairs.

2. division into two mutually exclusive, opposed, or contradictory groups: a dichotomy between thought and action.

You will see as we move through this message that there are two things at play here in this message. This word dichotomy covers both of those things. The first is that family does not mean the same thing after you get authentically born-again, it is in other words redefined. You can listen to my message titled family redefined for more on that. The other thing is that well over 95% of those who declare that their family is first does not actually prove it with action and the treatment of their family. Which shows and clearly demonstrates that we seem to always overestimate who we are in terms of having the right things in order in our lives. “I am a good family man” I say ok let’s interview the family and see if this statement is true. Ha, this is where we digress and say “well I try to be.” You see that statement should be our go to but instead we overestimate first hoping there will not be an interview following, but then hoping that people will actually believe what we say verbatim. Look I know, I am human and this also applied to me at one giant point in my life which was primarily, but not completely, but primarily, before I was born again.

Look, divorce is just one measure that proves this infallible. And the believer is subject to a different set of rules that ensures that their words are their bond, not comparatively, the non-believe doesn’t play by any set of “God-rules.” They are not required to. You see when you are destined for hell by your own choice you can do whatever you want on this earth providing you can get away with it. But the day comes when you will have to answer for it, and if you think about it now you will not have a sufficient enough answer to change your destiny, the very destiny that you thought you could avoid. And perhaps it is because you though that God would believe your every word about you. This is a grave error no pun intended. So in essence they are not held to the same standard. So don’t look for positive change from someone who is solely dependent on themselves to change. It cannot happen! The hidden heart is not seen by man but only by God and in His ability to do so He says of us unsaved folk in Genisis that their hearts are set on evil continually.

Ok so I just wanted my unbelieving audience to know I care for their very soul and would never hope that they die in any condition without the knowledge of God in their spirits.

I guess right out da gate we should define what a cult is. I will not necessarily define Christianity because yall should know it basically means Christ In Me. No other religion declares such a statement of truth or offers salvation resulting in forgiveness of sins and a wonderful future spent with God in a new heaven and on a new earth.  

1.    D-Com Cult : a particular system of religious worship, especially with reference to its rites and ceremonies.

So that’s a big help right? If I said devils and angels I believe it would have been a little more help, yes even without context. Well, lets go to Google and see if we can do better:

1.     Google Cult: One not recognized as an established religion. And all of the angels and devils stand up and shout nope not a complete def man.

OK so well perhaps I can try and shed some light on this misunderstood mystery. Of course Hollywood and the movie industry does not help with the situation at all when you consider the amount of movie mis-information that is gurgitized by the watching public. 

Now if you have ever been a member or inquiring mind of any of the following religions that I will be sharing today, then hopefully you come away with understanding that you have some options. Now when I say options, I mean that you come to understand that Jesus Christ is the only God person to do what He did, so any other religion that doesn’t have that going for it, is out of contention, or should be out of contention for your attention and soul. 

Now there are other more crafty religions that, instead of out-and-out rejecting the entire truth of the bible, they either take parts out and put other parts in, mixing it with the other spiritually considered thought-oh-man writings, or we have those who add to the original text, and simply change what the text means, and yet others including some of these that will be mentioned, just writing their own bible. This way they have full control of what goes in and what goes out. And lastly, as I understand lastly, we have the dearly departed who simply wrote their own version of what they believe a holy book is and run with that such as Baha’I World faith or Buddhism. Unfortunately for its followers their sin is left unchecked. That is when they get to heaven with their “I lived a good life and did not believe in you, as the only way to the Father, Jesus baloney, they will stare in His eyes, the eyes of all life and know their mistake, an eternal mistake, and boom-flash, their mind will see all of His attempts to win them to His eternal love and their rejection thereof. 

John 14:6 - Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

So let me begin after I have been clicking away at this complex message for a minute or so. I do get why so many shy away from taking on such issues as this because it could be a real barn burner. And what, why should I say this among so many professing Christians who by all means ought to be the most humblest bugs on the face of this earth? Because we too often fight to be right by the show of evidence that things must be approved by God because of the ministry success I have had.  Ha don’t we know that the tree of the knowledge of good and evil is the same tree? Well. Hummm. No signs and wonders from John the Baptizer and yet Jesus had this to say about a man who lost his head and his disciples:

Matt 11:11 - “Assuredly, I say to you, among those born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

So let me start again. I feel ill-equipped to be one speaking on such a topic, and but I do so because it is on my heart to do so. I have been under the authority of a woman pastor and she eventually, in part, and had a very big part in dismantling a 14-year church. Funny thing is that I gave her a word, which I still believe is accurate, which is that she would be a pillar in the church. May God restore her properly and in so doing advance her ministry in its proper position, and that is under authority.

So no I am not opening up this message implying that we can actually discover God as an unbeliever. Ha Nope, and as silly as it sounds that I would even have to say something like this, the reason is that there is a devil who has a principality assigned to the airwaves (Eph 2:2), and so but the ignorant or stupid, and I mean Pro 12:1 stupid, not the other kind, will buy into anything that is said about God because they are God stupid due to any desire to learn about their self-proclaimed Christianity. Ok Scripture time before I get to far ahead of myself, and I don’t want you to think I am hard-charging out the gate to offend anyone. I consider myself to have been the dumbest person on the planet for waiting so long to allow God into my train-wreck of a life so that I could hold Him personally accountable for all of my sins, and little did I know that is exactly why He wanted in:

2 Cor 5:21 - 21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

First, you must be authentically born again before any of the next things take in your life. Hey Ken, how do I know if I have been born again and, yes and have received the Holy Spirit? Well, some Pentecostals would say that if you speak in tongues then that would be the sign. So, but first, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord over your life, and you receive His free gift of salvation, then you have a lock on the first knowing, which is about your being born again (Rom 10:8-9 / Eph 2:5-8). Now I have heard some say that God specifically pointed out that some who were speaking in tongues were not even saved. Ha we know this can happen if you remember we chatted about it in other scriptures already. And, this does not give you a license to proclaim your own Pentecostal narrow mindedness and overlook the fact that I said some. Not all people speaking in tongues is from the devil. It might say so in your by-laws but it doesn’t say so in the bi-ble. So what is it already Ken? Well ok so the basis for it can be found in Romans let's look:

Rom 12:1-2 - 12 I beseech[a] you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your [b]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.

Now there do you see it? You cannot possibly be born again and carry out this portion of scripture without a thorough assistance from the holy Ghost.

So, in this message we open with a testimony as I believe as believers we should have testimonies about how we are interacting with God and how He is interacting with us all the time. He is a daily available God, as you should also be, a daily available child of His. God is after all moving in your life all the time and as we grow in Him this activity should become detectable on the regular. When He moves privately it usually causes a stir in your spirit, and if He moves publicly it can often times make the front pages of whatever. He is not usually looking for attention as we often do, but He is looking specifically for our attention in what He does for us and even for what we do for Him. We ask like a child to a parent and He responds. And when He does our heart and spirit smiles. So but let’s camp here a minute so that we really understand what it is that makes a testimony so significant. Not only ours of others including Jesus, but also what others say about us which is their testimony of us.

Ok so I'm sitting at Starbucks in Paradise reading my 998 book outside in their front courtyard when someone comes out of the store talking very loudly on their cell phone. Normally this wouldn't be a big deal as I love to read in public and usually have no problem with all the noise going about. But his voice was particularly loud and obnoxious and it unintentionally interrupted Him and I and the animals. I felt in my spirit that it was the devil trying to disrupt my reading and God time, so I asked God, “hey if it's okay with you, can we drop that man's call so that he can move on?” About 5-seconds later I hear the man saying hello, hello, can you hear me, hello. I smiled and chuckled because I knew what had happened and was excited that my God in heaven helped that man to be socially polite. Anyway, he went back into the store and peace was restored.

Ok so I know you want to know what is the meaning of this title Ghosted twice? Yes, this title, but not like your mad or anything, it’s just that you want to know, you know, like my Podcast listeners would and should wanna know, even the new listeners who may not yet even know that they are or will be my very near and dear future listeners...

I like statistics because it proves men both liars and truth-tellers. If you are one that uses “Always” and “Never” in sentences other than when speaking to God or about the devil then you may be a liar, or to soften it up a bit, one who exaggerates to defend a usually very week position. I mean if your position was strong you would not have to use such verbiage right? Ha but this is not about lying or telling the truth. Nope, it is about how data helps us to make informed decisions as Christians. You can be for something or against it until you see the numbers and then they can perhaps keep you from making that unintelligent and highly emotional bad decision. Yup I have done this plenty to the point that I could be considered an expert in bad decision making at one point in my life. 

You see I was one of those who overheard a data-ignorant person say something to the effect that statistics can be manipulated and therefore should not be trusted. Psshhh like dah right? I mean anything can be done this sort of way. Doesn’t the bible say that the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one? (1 John 5:19) And if that is true and it is then is it not also true that the devil is the father of lies (John 8:44) and if he is the father of lies then he also has kidletts who also lie like him (1 John 3:8-10)? And cannot it be said if I give you the scripture references to these things that I say then they are as good as statistically supported as they can be? Oh shoe drop…no wait wrong thing, Mic drop, well mic swing ha just havin’ fun this morning. But that was good right? Scripture is as good as statistical data that is 100% accurate.

Ha rain, weeds, seeds, soil, and harvest. Is this a trip to the garden? Nope not at least to the natural garden but to the spiritual one.

Joel 2:23-24 - Be glad then, you children of Zion,
And rejoice in the Lord your God;
For He has given you the [a]former rain faithfully,
And He will cause the rain to come down for you—
The former rain,
And the latter rain in the first month.
24 The threshing floors shall be full of wheat,
And the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil..

Former Rain, Latter Rain, Rain Rain come again to show us whose been born again.

Ha what a funny start eh, so what does this mean? Well it means that the rain falls on the just and the unjust. What how did you drift into that transition? Ha I don’t know maybe drifting is a spiritual gift. If not formerly then perhaps latterly.

Ha but so now we have a parallel thing going on in this message so let me explain almost right out of the box. The former rain and latter rain is used to define God more or less pouring out His spirit on all flesh. This is an angle but not the whole triangle, meaning there is more of God’s former and latter rain stuff but I am not trying to go big here.

Acts 2:17 - ‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams.

Time For A Minute What? I know it’s me doing me right? Ok so but I took a minute off and headed to San Diego to receive an answer to a pray regarding this very ministry which in part was launched because of confirmation I had received both in Chico, San Diego and San Marcos through the Elisha Ministry. I asked God what’s next from my very grave and He said, this is that. That is the Podcasting thing. And thus a teacher was launched from the halls of heaven. 

So after finishing just over 420 podcast messages, I was wondering what I might be doing now to continue to reach even more than the 1000’s we currently do. I mean I had been hearing from some of my listeners that it would be good to have some books, but not just another Christian experience book, or a workbook, or even a journal, and none of these things are bad, it is just that perhaps we could have something that will help us put legs on the Word of God and also require, if this is even the correct use or application of this word, the reader to actual set goals, create action or actionable steps, take those steps and applying what you are reading in a specific chapter, and then documenting the results. Yes, measuring your Christian effectiveness by holding your own self accountable for results. If obtaining or developing spiritual fruit is one of our missions down here, don’t you think we ought to be taking into account if we are actually bearing it? Yes, right I knew you would agree. 

You see this ministry centers around equipping the saints for the work of ministry while also helping you to make disciples that can stand through anything earth has to throw at them as well as to be a disciple...

This is a shoutout to one of my listeners who has asked a special request – I hear she goes by the street name Security Sue and she has asked a message of me that might speak to some things that she is seeing and hearing when chatting with this and that. I say this and that because sticks and stones may break my bones, but names she never gave me. Now I am in a position these days, for the moment, whereby I can take special requests as long as they line up with the heart of this ministry. You can text me or email me if you would like to hear about a specific subject or would like some clarification on a subject already taught. As I have taught already from Matt’s book let’s go there again shall we.

Matt 13:19“When anyone hears the word of the kingdom, and does not understand it, then the wicked one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is he who received seed by the wayside.

It is vitally important to know and understand what you are learning and apply it, least you get a visitor, who will carry out one of his purposes which is to keep you God stupid. Is this not, how we continue to break off, into this and that denomination or non-denominational, eventually to become a Laodicean church entity? Yes it is. Somehow, we get “just God stupid enough” to actually believe that, it is in the plan of God, to divide His bride, and to send her throughout all the land.

Oh, what a mistake we have made to think we entirely know the mind and will of God, so much so, that we believe we and we alone have our boney finger on the pulse of God. The methodist, Calvinist, denominationalists, independent-ists, Ima-not-havin-ists, ha…enough!

Life Coach This - Well that’s it for today. Ha no just kidding...

So I am like flooded with ideas as to where to take this but in and through all that mind hubbub there is the core of the topic staring right at me. 

So a bit of history:

Life coaching formally emerged during the 1980’s and grew in popularity throughout the 1990s and 2000s. Some of the earliest life coaches focused on life planning, but the field eventually grew to encompass other life areas including relationships, finances, careers, health, and overall well-being. 

Now before I go down this road which may invoke an alien response, I should but tell you right out the gate what I just saw. Ok so as I was typing this def out which I got from Jayshettycoaching.com, I saw the counterfeit gospel. Now wait for you Christian life coaches. A counterfeit gospel gives the appearance of the benefits of the true gospel, and but in addition to that it births a new argument into the minds of the unsuspecting which is that hey if this here life coach can help me to get the Jesus Gospel benefits then why should I consider this Jesus guy at all?

Oh, this is going to be a real shaker. Ha, I guess I should start by saying that the word given was never lost as it would have happened anyway as Revelation says so. Now but the book of Revelation does not provide such details as where or when the one, the earthquake of earthquakes will happen. And if hearing the word earthquakes didn’t shake you to quit listening to this podcast, then good on you, as one of the greatest tragedies that will befall humanity will be intentional blindness. Somehow, somewhere, someone perpetuated this idea that it is better not to know when your time may be drawing near. They say if it’s going to happen, I don’t want to know about it, or they will simply wish the information away into the future. So, like it may be the thought, that will not happen in my lifetime so why worry about it? Now I personally don’t advocate worrying about anything, but I do advocate paying attention to what is being said and had been said about well the end for example. 

Now I believe almost every generation of Christian since even before we kids of God were called Christians, thought that Jesus would return back to earth right away and that this would be wrapped up before things got out of control. Oh, but if we could see as God can see we would be overwhelmed to death at what has happened on this earth since it’s creation.

Ah what a morning to say hello to God who as done so infinitely more than all his kids combined for all of history, and He did it out of a pure love for you in hopes you would want that kind of love in your life. No matter what has you by the neck today, know that it is powerless against the very active love that god has for you. The devil is a faker and stripped of his power. He is like a terrified bully on a playground that knows not how to deal with his fear. I don’t pray it off unless it does not line up with Gods will for your life. If he is there round about your neck and has no permission by way of unrepentant sin or broken fellowship with the Father, then I rebuke him in the most powerful name to have ever existed in all of eternity and command that he flee from your life in Jesus name amen. Oh He is a most holy living and very tangible knowable God. Say hello to Him today and dare ask Him how you may serve and minister to Him today. it’s the least we can do while living on this rock.

So hey I want you to know that I am really encouraged to know that many of you have been about more than just filling your heads with information, but that you are also doing the Word. That is healing the sick, raising the dead, and setting the captives free by casting out demons. This is how we first serve the kingdom of God, how we allow God to continue to add to the church daily those who are being saved, in order that we make disciples that last, in order that even we are disciples, so that we can equip the saints for the work of ministry. Yup it is the bride making herself reading, and I appreciate your responding to this ministry with such zeal and a heart to know God at a deeper level and out of that knowledge to obey Him in all things. I will speak more upon these things at the end of this message as this really is a pivotal message if you can hear it and see it which will be evidenced in your doing it.

Heb 4:12 - 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.

On the front end of this message, I want you to know that I am really encouraged to know that many of you have been about more than just filling your heads with information, but that you are also doing the Word. That is healing the sick, raising the dead, and setting the captives free by casting out demons. This is how we first serve the kingdom of God, how we allow God to continue to add to the church daily those who are being saved, in order that we make disciples that last, in order that even we are disciples, so that we can equip the saints for the work of ministry. Yup it is the bride making herself reading, and I appreciate your responding to this ministry with such zeal and a heart to know God at a deeper level and out of that knowledge to obey Him in all things.

So, now wow this is an, “I gotta hear this message” title right? Let’s form the basis:

John 16:33 - These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

Mark 13:19 - For in those days there will be tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the creation which God created until this time, nor ever shall be.

So Mark references the beginning, as in since the beginning, but for a different reason other than the creation of all things by the Word of God, who is Jesus and is God. Yup he compared the destruction of the beginning, by the tribulation that will come which really signifies or supports rather that we are about to come full circle. Oh how we could do a message on circles as you see the roundness in so many things. But maybe later.

So what, does this vision come by way of a new set of fancy pants glasses Ken? Ha nopey dopey. But you will see that by the time we are through with this one that you will agree it makes sense to call it none another than 40/40 Vision.

Now I’ve got to excuse myself and read the book of John, and any associated scriptures that will shine a light on this reading chart. I will be back in a minute.

Ok so I am back and wait until you see, well hear, what I found in that great treasure book called the very breath of God. Well, ok so but it doesn’t actually say that, I more or less made that up. Let’s get going before I make some more stuff up.

I recently did a shorty titled “what do you want! Exclamation point not a question but a fist pounding hey what do you want. Now it was not at all meant to be the least bit condemning but to stir you to ask yourself, as no one else will and mean it, what do I want? What do I want from my relationship from God. Oh so I feel like going into that message again as it is the question for our generation. Wherever you are in life right now, right now be it school, living with mom and dad, college in some strange town, at a dead-end job, unemployed, homeless, lost in purpose and life, even for some I know you are at the end of your rope, and I know this because I etched my name in it several times myself. Tie a not in it and wait upon the Lord. I mean this figuratively. I don’t want to be driving down the road and see you hanging on to a rope telling the gawker’s, Ken told me to stay right here and tie a knot in this here rope. No

And on a more serious note, if you feel like putting that rope around your neck, you ought to think about where that will place you for all of eternity. Nothing is so bad on this planet as to make that mistake and have to live with the consequences of that decision for all of eternity. If you not sure I am being truthful with you, stop, pick up a bible, I am old fashion I like turning the paper pages, go somewhere quiet, of which I am sure you are probably already in that space, and read it for yourself. Don’t let a rope make the decision for you, don’t let drugs make the decision for you, don’t let a car or a gun make the decision for you, and by all means, do not under any circumstances allow the devil to make that decision for you. No, we humans don’t always understand what each other is going through, but I assure you we each have our stuff, but good on you because Jesus went through all of what you could possibly go through and oh so much more and yet I tell you that He did it for you so that you wouldn’t have to. So put the rope around His neck and get on with getting on. He has it and He has you. I do see you, I see you.

I had a listener who was listening to my message Self-Denial leveling up and mentioned wanting to hear God more. This message is dedicated to him and I know that it was God who prompted me to leave the other messages I was working on this morning and to prep this one for him. His desire and request was to have open spiritual ears and eyes. Well here it is my friend. 

So, you know me by now I try and just shoot straight. I heard this in fact when I was just setting up another message titled Broken Fellowship. It seems as though I cannot keep up with all the God has to say to us in these broken days. In these vacant days without His presence. I see people everywhere who are believers but not in the sense that there activity would prove this to anyone, and as they are walking along in life I see a vacancy sign posted in them. So what do you want? More of the same guessing if God is with you? Should it be that we Christians should concern ourselves with anything but His presence and fellowship? What do you want? Going from one day to the next wondering if you are saved today or if you ever were? 

View Details

So this shorty message came to me as I was thinking about self-denial and what it is that I deny myself for, to, and from, for the benefit of myself or others. My answer may sound like yours but maybe not. In truth I do not have this area mastered yet. 

So, like I have a very structured life so as to leave room for this ministry, work, working the property, and reading. Everything else fits within this time-space continuum. Hey Ken, what about fishing or vacationing. Well, I usually tie my vacations, which are few, to ministry. And fishing is not done very often anymore. Right now, as far as I am concerned it is perfect. Now I say this having the expectation and hope that the ministry will grow and that I will have many 1-billion view messages. But even more important than that is that my relationship with God is perfect, strong, and active.

Now I should but start this one off with an apology, except that it’s high and heavenly time someone say something, as there will come a day when we will be in way over our heads; too deep for us to see a way out but by Gods help. Corrections should be made before you have to explain why? I will be doing a future message on What Is Christianity, in which we will explore how far off the mark we have gotten. For many, todays Christianity is very normal and in line with what they know about God. And therein lies the trap. If you compare today’s Christianity with bible Christianity, you can then see we have an ocean in between what was and what is. And whether it is fair or not in terms of whether we have solid Christian examples or not you know so we can emulate them, is kind of irrelevant. Because the Bible was given us to ensure consistency in how each and everyone of us can learn and apply what is in between its pages same as any other person. The same translator, the Holy Spirit, is available to us as much as he was back in any other time in history. If you let people talk or teach you out of biblical truth then that is on you, given you have the same Word living in you that wrote the Word. Now I understand that Christianity is not as clean nor as simple as this because of the many oppositions we have working against us, but I tell you by my witness, it is us that is most spiritually lazy that does more to impede our growth than anything. How many times has someone stated that’s not true, that’s not true, and when asked why, they say because my pastor stated so, or my denomination stated so, or whoever, but ask them to point to the where it says that it the Word, and they come up short. If there is anything I could say to you in this entire ministry, it is this. Don’t rely on anyone else for your spiritual growth but by the Holy Spirit. Yes, you can be taught, as I am doing that now, but you have got to develop your own personal relationship with the Word least you be led astray, and many, I say many have taken this route.

I feel that the opening of this message is prophetic, and so but let me explain. It’s not me being weird or making some high falutin self-declaration, but rather I feel that the matter is urgent. This message dropped into my spirit along with four other messages. They are already in the works as I feel things are moving a bit faster than previously. Look out for them as they should be posted in this May month.

There titles are: 

·       Aaugh it’s bad

·       Heavenly Policy

·       Cold Love

·       Self-Denial Leveling Up

What does that mean Ken? I think we are really running out of time. Yes, time to answer the knock at the door of our hearts, and yes that knock could have been going on for much of your life, but now I feel like the knock will fade away and the opportunity for the gentile race will be closed (Rev 3:20). Now allow me to unfold this message as I am sure the Lord will support what He is saying with plenty of scripture and a huge dose of revelation to help those who are paying attention to this ministry and what it’s purpose and mission is all about.

Throwing the baby out with the bath water. What does this mean? It means that for example if you had a friend for 20-years and they did you wrong one time, that you decided to give up on the relationship. I know just writing this sets off all kinds of, “Jesus would never do this” alarms. But we do, and we do it quick and often. We also apply a liberal level of subjection when we do this so as to justify our position. Perhaps the friendship is unprofitable so in your thinking you don’t consider it a great loss to break it off. Maybe the infraction was soooo big that you feel that there is no way to restore the friendship. Perhaps it involved a great deal of theft, or cheating with your wife or husband, or even the death of one of your children. Now I know I am probably leaving out some of your justifications for ending the relationship, but these are pretty serious. Now I will come up a bit, before diving back to the bottom. What if it is not a friend or personal relationship? What if it has to do with another Christian who is an Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor or Teacher? I say this because these are positions of authority, and we judge people in positions of authority with a different size ruler than we judge ourselves or others, not in a position of threat or bossing me around, or, oh I see, these are the reasons for thinking this way and not the reasons why I should think this way. Should we not at least consider that authority was given to us by Jesus, and not everyone has the same level of authority when dealing with the human condition, however and for the sake of argument, we all have authority over the demonic and natural world? Well if unforgiveness is your weapon of reason for not allowing those in positions of authority to influence your life then let us remember the story of Peter and John...

Okay so if I heard someone bellow out woe, woe, woe I would turn around and look for a flying or falling object. Pretty straight forward, in fact, we could say that this is a universal language for “look out”, with the exception of “fore” which is used in golf. 

Here’s a key right out the gate: when you hear a woe from Jesus you should stop running and buckin’ and find out what’s off. 

So but Jesus wasn’t saying to the various woe cities look out. He was clearly telling them that they were heading in the wrong direction; that, they in fact were the falling object. But so when He was announcing these words known as the “woe’s”, He was telling them, that they need to stop and reconsider. In fact, he may have un-woe’ed them, had they properly responded. But the thing about us humans is that we don’t like to be wrong, especially in our religious beliefs. Just ask any Crusader. 

But, and I say but, this message has now taken a turn for the better meaning as God has shifted my initial thoughts on the message and minimalist focus and expanded it to include lots of woe scenario’s or rather examples of situations that invoked a woe response and outcome. Of course the outcome can be changed if the woe-sters perform a repentance turn-a-bout, and if it is in the will and plan of God to offer that opportunity to them. Sometimes the woe-sters want to take their chance with God after all possible chances are gone. Yup this is the stupidity of thinking, that you are good enough to change Gods mind about your woe-sterism. Allow me to save you, the trouble of taking a very bad journey, with no return tickets available. If you go there you will woe there, and there is no turning things around. But back to talking to the authentically born-again believer – let’s hit some scriptures about the pronounced woes of God and see if any hit home shall we?

So let’s get personal for a minute, back in the day when I drank to stupidity which always started with the stupid idea to drink but then it transitioned or was justified by creating a plan with intent and purpose. When I got high it made me feel full of intent and purpose. I found that I was, as long as I remained drunk or high, motivated to stillness.

Oh yeh, as long as I was thinking loosely and expending no effort or work towards any purpose, I was able to believe and convince myself that I was going to get started on that so-and-so thing straight forward. Yup, I was going to change the world, and every time I snipped and tipped, that motivational stillness rushed right back and I was again in that happy place where I felt I could conquer the world with no applied effort. That would come tomorrow, right now I am grubbing for a snack.

So I recently finished reading, “How Pentecost Came to Los Angeles – The Story Behind The Azusa Street Revival written by Frank Bartleman.” This is the second time I have read this story, however the first was under the cover of a different cover. It would seem that if we want to continue to sell an old book, we simple need to dress it in new clothes. Marketing 101. And the Christian community is not above these techniques. Now I will say that this book does say in the inside cover that the book was originally published as how Pentecost came to Los Angeles: as it was in the beginning. Originally written in 1925. Additionally, it states this book is unabridged and unedited from a copy of the original print run. 

But besides that, it is a really difficult book to read and I would recommend that the whole of Christianity read it; that is those who have been given an appetite by God to bring revival again. 

Roleplay time: Wee, look guys it looks like the healing gifts are in full bloom, and yes miracles, signs, and wonders for everyone who believes. Wow this is everything that I had ever hoped or wished for...

What things do we believe in that we cannot see but that require some level of faith to believe, that they are real and that they do exist? 

This is or was a question you would often hear streeter preachers preaching to the lost, as they defended their Gospel position. And it’s my belief that there is no logical or spiritually intelligent argument against the comparisons. For example, in a minute we will take a look at some things we believe in, but cannot see, and compare that to the life of a born-again believer and what they see that you cannot.

The difference between the two worlds will absolutely astound you to believe or to call us believers who go all the way with God, out of our minds (Mark 3:21, John 10:20-21, Acts 26:24).

Ha, spiritual rudeness could be another way of titling the message but even then, I am not satisfied or convinced that it really says what I think it should. So shut up was a way to rudely say it. See, it’s a rude start to a rude activity, that occurs at many of our prayer meetings all across this planet. Are you going to teach us how to pray Ken? Well if I was the all powerful intercessor that right now I am not, I might attempt it. But in truth the message is mo simpler than that. Let’s lay a foundation shall we:

Matt 6:25-33 - 25 “Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 Which of you by worrying can add one [a]cubit to his [b]stature?

28 “So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; 29 and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not [c]arrayed like one of these. 30 Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

31 “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

View Details

This is an important message because I think that as believer you should know that God wants you to ask, to talk, and to communicate with Him as if He is, as if He did, and as if He will. Part of your prayers should include asking; not all but part. God wants us to want to be in relationship with Him. In fact it is the most important relationship you can be in. If you read 1 Thessalonians 1:8 you will see an event that will be taking place shortly and it has two requirements for the believer – Know God and obey Him. If you do not know God then what are you doing acting like a Christian? You must know that this won’t help in the day of His return right? No good to fool all of mankind for your entire life only to end up standing in the wrong line in heaven. Be a Christian who is daily pursuing God, becoming passionately in Love with Him, serving Him as He directs, teaches, and leads you, through His Holy Spirit. In the kingdom of God love is serving, so serve away in your calling using the gifts, talents, and spiritual resources that God has given you. But, but, but if your not born again then stop, stop, stop get on your way until you are ready to get on His way.  

So now, let’s stop distracting me, and allow me to get into some scripture: 

1 Kings 3:5 - 5 At Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and God said, “Ask! What shall I give you?”

View Details

Well here we go again with some scripture surfing under the Son. Have you ever wondered why some people say that there is only one God or that there is One God but three that is the father, Son, and Holy Spirit, or that there is just one God but no Jesus, or that Jesus is not a God. 

 So to address the Jesus thing; the devil is a liar and doesn't want anyone to believe that Jesus is the Son of God, but it is true that Jesus is the Son of God and our only option for salvation. If you want the job or want to attribute the responsibility to someone else then they need to just be sin free and have died and now live and sit on the right hand of the Father, that's it. 

 You could probably find someone on a hiring agency website. But no really the Jesus status is out of the question. He is real, lived among us, died for our sins, and got up out of the grave and ascended to the Father. No tampering allowed. 

 But what about the Trinity theory? From where did it come from? It's not in the Bible, but I believe that plenty happens that is not in the bible but fits within the context of the Bible. Give the message a listen and perhaps we can lay this one to rest.

Is it really fair to call something “repeating” if it is more like a different version of the same story? So why then should I share a different version of the same story if a similar version of the story already exists? Great question and it seems that the rule of a single version only fits with some artistic expression of which I think is like my childhood stories, than in most other expressions i.e. movies, music or dance. 

Look Little Red Riding Hood cannot change, least we lose entire generations of kid-lings to the future history. And can you imagine in the broke up families of today that one reading one version and another reading a completely different version to the same kid; wow this could be an epic destroyer to Red and the Wolf. 

All kidding aside, repeating stuff is bible – it’s what we need to really learn what is important and at times difficult to learn. We have four maybe even five Gospels if you consider the book of Acts. I think Faith is repeated 365 times in the Bible – now this can’t be because there are 365 different meanings to it, can it? Nope.

This story is not a ditto copy to another one, like the Gospels it carries over some of the same elements and includes some new stuff. If you have a clear understanding that Satan has kids and God has kids and you know how this came about, and why knowing this is important then absorb the new elements and grow thus bigger.

Was Jesus born again? What Ken, those them thar, be fighten’ words. Ha I know right Jesus born again. The King of kings and the Lord of lords born again. I thought that taking that bath was only for the dirty sinner right? So, but when I first read this, I was like, no, no, no these peeps missed it, whoever they are has missed it. Jesus was a perfect man, born sinless and without fault. 

Look:

Heb 4:15 - 15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.

No sin, no need to be born again right! I mean isn’t that what we believe? Well, in my opinion we are not really taught but told in many of our churches. And you can’t hardy blame the tolders, because the body of Christ has gotten used to being told what Christianity is and isn’t and not so much equipped to do Christianity. Doing Christianity is very different that learning about the history of Christianity and what we should and shouldn’t be doing, saying, speaking, attending, etc, blah, blah, blah. Look, one more thing and then I will move on from this “my passion”, which is to equip the saints for the work of ministry, and to encourage you to get to know God as if you believed He is a knowable God....

So, this is kind of interesting because this message can go in many directions. I got the title as I was ruminating and rummaging through my thoughts as I journeyed from Paradise to Chico this morning. I was thinking about what it would be like to put Jesus in an interview situation in order to ask Him questions. You know like the Pharisees did to Him all the time, but for me, it wouldn’t be for the same purpose. 

But then a better fish floated to the top of the water and it was the famous switch fish and I epiphanied away at this idea; what if it were Jesus interviewing you, me, us after you, me us died or rather as I like to put it, after you, me, us left our opportunity to get to know God and obey Him while living in the corrupt 1st edition of our body? You also see now that I have to explain why I said your body. And well I said it because in the interview, which hasn’t yet started, you might be inclined, if possible to defend your position, assuming you are not saved, by blaming others for what they did to you, that is to your spirit, soul, and/or body. Yup it might just come up that if Jesus were to ask you, why you chose not to surrender your toe-up-life for His, that you might say something like this lady did: 

“Well Jesus life was so difficult… 

View Details

How about I point blank you before I explain and support my position? Now even though the message will be discussing the church, it is totally about His developing and arriving bride. Stay with me, get your revelation on, and be renewed in your soft gushy mind.

The church is for the people of God, the kids of God, the called-out ones, it is not for the devils kids who willing want to follow the devil their daddy for now. Doesn’t mean they cannot get born again, but just not so long as they willingly follow their daddy the devil. It’s a sin driven life whereby ours is a spiritual walk always keeping it 100.

So now its brass tack time: 

Revelation 19:-7 - 7 Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.” 

Hosea 2:19-20 -  19“I will betroth you to Me forever; Yes, I will betroth you to Me
In righteousness and justice, In lovingkindness and mercy; 20 I will betroth you to Me in faithfulness, And you shall know the Lord.

Faithfully guided, draw near to where the

blessing of love shall preserve you!

Triumphant courage, the reward of love,

Joins you in all of eternity through faith

as the most blessed of brides.

Ok, ok, I know even I was a bit apprehensive about this title, but remember I get titles and then the message drops, and because you are you and I am me, there is no way you can see where this is going with a title like that. So, for the Nubians on this Podcast, don’t be thrown off by the title, hang in there and in so doing ask God to give you the revelation of what is surely to be a very powerful message. 

The title of this message is Get Saved & Die

In fact, I know this so much because I was just now working on another message titled, “Salvation is Dangerous”, and in my making fun at that title I wrote down some alternate titles, but so and when as I was writing this one down and chuckled at its bluntness, I knew God is, was, and did say to me to go there. Ha, can you imagine God telling you to go there in your ministry. Well, he created me to be forward-facing which simply means that I can be blunt because the message will come from my heart. 

View Details

What another message using a play on words? Yup only this is a message about a weapon that satan used to resurrect your flesh. The very flesh that died with Jesus? Yes that old you. Let’s look so that we can be sure this message will be buoyed by the strength of the truth of scriptures.

Gal 2:20 - 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.

Gal 5:24 - And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

Rom 6:4 - 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.

Col 2:12 – 13 buried with Him in baptism, in which you also were raised with Him through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead.
And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses...

Well I think it's time for a Podcast statistical update. I think you should know who else is listening in besides you. I started this podcast June 28, 2022 so I am just heading into my 9-month of chit-chat. I suspect that I am not the only Christian that wants to know if God is in the thing we believe that He has called us to be in right? One way is to look at the fruit, not the time it takes to fruit-out if you will but the fruit that has appeared. 

You know if someone or two says that this ministry is going to be a global ministry. You kind of want to see evidence of that after you have been in it a while.  

So without further delay I will read to you the following countries and city/states that are listening to this right along with you. Ha you are never alone and yes based on what I see God does have the intention of sending these messages to the globe. Now you can help, you know he likes it when we help Him…I know, I know right…He doesn’t need our help, but nonetheless He really enjoys working right along side of His created ones. That’s you and me. Now I am doing all that I know to do, so as I invite you to do in every message.

Freedom from guilt or evil; innocence. What? You mean I am innocent and in right standing before God, now that I am an authentically born-again believer who among many other things, including the fact that I am a new creation, am also one who is pure? I’ll take it and leave the rest behind. This definition is so far from what I used to be, and not because I used to think so, but because outside of Christ, this is how God saw me. The opposite of pure.

2 Cor 6:6 - 6 by purity, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Spirit, by [a]sincere love...

Matt 5:48 - 48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

Cut are we from the same cloth right?

Matt 19:21 - 21 Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”

Notice Jesus didn’t say you would be saved but that you could be perfect and follow Jesus. Even Jesus knew how to wait before gospel inundating someone. 

Now we are talking! Perfection here. I remember as a kid that I often wondered why this thing, that is consistently doing things right – being perfect, wasn’t possible. It is super possible that I wondered of such things due to being abused by my father beginning at around 5-yrs of age. In and through the process the bible was read to me and it may have been that it was understood in a 5-year old mind that perfection was unachievable depending on the scriptures being read to me? But my young mind wanted to know why? Ha yes hey God why can’t we be perfect? I know it was 56-years ago and I still remember talking to God about perfection. I was intrigued with God as if I really believed He was real. I remember closing my eyes really tight and trying to find Him in the darkness of my mind. Try it its ok we won’t look.

So righteousness doesn’t mean that you will always be right. In fact you know that your off when you understand that right and wrong are in another world. Righteousness has friends that make contributions such as purity, blamelessness, and holy to name a few. Fighting to be right is exactly the same thing as fighting someone for a piece of fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. No one ever fights to be righteous and I bet you should whana know why.

The title of this message is: Sinless

Pfweah, I don’t even know how to spell pfweah but if I could it should look like pfwaeh. Ha Did you say sinless Ken? 

Oh but you mean like after I can no longer be hurt because I’m dirt right? Nope. I mean based on the journey we are continuing in as Christian peeps. A storied Analogy: like a Cheetah chasing down a Hamster at full speed, sin can do the same to you, and if it catches up to you, you should not partake of its delicacies. Rebuke it, rebuke it, re-buke it. There is power in the name of Jesus.

You see while we were dancing in it, that is sin, God called forth His seed buried deep in our hearts, placed in us before the earth was ever formed, and we got to experience being born-again while wallowing in sin up to our necks. Go ahead and thank the person who planted and watered the word of God resting as seed in your heart.

Rev 4:8 - The four living creatures, each having six wings, were full of eyes around and within. And they do not rest day or night, saying: “Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, Who was and is and is to come!”

1st – ha they do not rest oh the waiting to get to a place where rest is not needed. 2nd and more important than not having to rest is that they establish the atmosphere in the Kingdom of God, in heaven with their uninterrupted, un-hindered, fully voiced out, taking no breath sing song angels, declaring His majesty and holiness nonstop. And prophesying the glorious return and full-on takeover of this wretched planet…say it with me He is coming back, He is coming back! The mountains cannot express, no even if they could turn themselves inside out, they could not express the elatedness of them and all of creation upon seeing that Jesus is returning. Ha they would lay there roads flat for His steed if it were possible. He is coming back to make everything right as it should be. And upon hearing this your entire day should have shifted unless you are listening from heaven.

Being equipped for the work of ministry. Ha now I know that some of you that have been with me from the beginning know that equipping is the heartbeat of applied strengths ministry. I really enjoy it when I run into someone every so often and they are identifiably different. They have completed goals behind them, more clarity of purpose, and love God so much that they actually believe what He says as demonstrated by their action. Ohhh the essence of faith.  

At the front side of what this is saying is that it can lead one to believe that you are being equipped to do stuff. To cast out demons, to heal the sick, to be used for miracles, signs, and wonders. But, let's take a 360 look at what it is to be fully equipped as a saint of God starting with being sure you know how to stand up on your own two feet with and in God...

So don’t be thrown off in that you will hear this opening six times but each of the aforementioned topics will be discussed separate and apart from each other.

What makes you different from those who are not Christians? Just to head off the missiles I will say that it is not effort or works on your part. Now let’s see if we can answer that question.

I can guess that some of you might say “God is in you” of course right? Or, “I get to live in heaven with God” why yes that’s what makes me different. And for some you might say, “I don’t have to go to hell and that’s different enough for me.” But no yes, and that is not where I am going with this message. Getting to know God is one of the greatest privileges ever bestowed upon mankind. But even that has a set of prerequisites. 

Good morning, get in the Podcast Cadi, we are about drive the drive few of us have even though was possible.

I should start this message with the age old kid response to the older brother or sister and that is: YOUR NOT THE BOSS OF ME. Ha 

I have had so many conversations with other believers, to get right into the message, that regarding honoring and obeying Church leadership they thought it was a volunteer option to do so. 

Some would argue to the point that they became very contentious about the whole subject. They get my trust and of honor if they prove they deserve it. I would tell them that according to Num 12 and 16 as well as Hebrews we should obey, honor, and cover with copious amounts of prayer and respect, those who have been placed in a position of authority over our spiritual lives. We who have been around awhile call it coming under leadership. God calls it submitting and obedience which if done so will lead you to know Him more and keep you out of His corrective gaze.

So to refresh your minds in previous messages we have chatted about God calling us gods, the great harvest loss, aborted baby Christians due to poor training on the part of us, the church, how our lives were re-defined upon being born again, your new family identity once you became authentically born again, some Kingdom stuff, and the lack of maturity in the saints today because of, and as stated before, a lack of training focus on the part of the church. The following is just some nibblettes for the cribblettes and for those of us who are to make disciples of them and for those who will allow themselves to be discipled. Who decides?

I know, I know this is going to sound like a big fat Ken rant, but it’s really not. It’s me telling you how I feel when an unwarranted interruption enters into my spiritually meditative space. I don’t know if anyone else feels this way or if interruptions have become the normal way of communicating. I will move through this message as if that is not the case.

Have you ever heard the saying that that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree? Unfortunately, in this world of serious negativity and judgement we often hear it applied to someone who acts like or makes the same mistakes as their wayward parent.

Now this is not a message for the weak, religious or those that can spell and have a phobia of newly created words. And yes you would know if you are any one of these because “heresy” would fly out your lips like a hummingbird to nectar. Or maybe like an idiosyncratic fanatic. No…probably not that. 

Now the idea that God Himself calls us gods…

Fake like most of the news we hear. Wronger than a lie. Purposed to deceive. Almost correct. Barely detectable. Punishable by sin. What! Where are we going Ken. I am listing the “close but no cigar” efforts, albeit wrong and intentional, of peeps when it comes to flowing in the spirit without the spirit, or to those who believe but just not in their hearts. Yup it’s the many who will be led astray because like so many they thought they had time to get to know Jesus later, you know perhaps after they retire. 

Yes, no but see here, this message is multifaceted, chatting about losing your healing right after you got your healing, but even worse, the fact that you as an authentically born-again believer, don’t actually know that you no longer need healing. Ha, I know I got a reaction from the massive crowds listening, but really we are all in process and no doubt we want to know what I just said including me. It’s one of the best – give ear – give ear.

When 2nd Timothy 4:1-5 states that they will heap up teachers who tell them what they want to hear who do you think that the scripture is talking to? It is not talking to the unbeliever that doesn't want to stand in front of a teacher who is teaching them anything in regarding the Bible. It is talking to the other believers, you, me us. Can you hear the urgency from Paul to Timmy? Listen for it:

II Tim 4:1-5 - 4 I charge you [a]therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead (this is the believer and unbeliever) [b]at His appearing and His kingdom: 2 Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. 

And to think I was just going to sail right by this scripture. So Paul is saying to Timmy hey man preach the gospel whether you feel like it or not, whether it is raining or snowing, and/or whether you are speaking as a young believer to a mature audience or young Christians.

This is a story based on the fact that we are born-again into the righteousness of God for immediate service. Yes there is spiritual maturity at play here but allow me to share with you that kids under the age of 10 were healing adults at the Azusa Street Revival. Oh go a head I’ll wait for the plethora of excuses as to why they could but you won’t, I mean can’t, or perhaps both? I say this to me as well because at 60-years old I still don’t have the healing ministry I thought I would have, and I am sure it is not because God isn’t done preparing me yet. Nope. It’s all on me. Yes, it’s the way that I think about God and my mental relational thoughts about Him and I. It is this that has kept me from flowing like one of those Azusa Street Revival kidletts. As I continue to plow through the authors of the world looking for the magic healer button, I have recently, like March 13, 2023 recently discovered that, I am not aware of what I am, now that I am born again. Now I have been born again for nearish 25-years, and most of the time I have been focusing on the horrible old sin man that I used to be. Ha and sometimes that I still am…and the listener lets out a big sigh of relief right. Look...

Ha, I know right. I suspect that parents don’t have these conversations with their kids before social media and school tell them a version that is all too often wrong and instills first of all a topic in kids minds that most are not ready to hear, and also in their learning from any other source other than from the Bible, that other source instills massive insecurities, and I know this because insecurity breeds insecurity, and if the teacher is dependent on the world for its knowledge on sex they have insecurities about it or a totally demonic view of it. Okay there it is. Yes the devil corrupts what sex should be and corrupts how you see yourself and he loves for you to compare yourself to other people. It makes it very easy for him to plant a whole field of insecurity seeds in your mind and thoughts.

This message started its life out as a 6-part series. This however makes it difficult for those who want the whole bite all at once. Well, so here it is six into one.

Sometimes I get so excited to get into a message that I forget to hang up the target before shooting. 

So let’s hang it…

Why a message on mission, purpose, goals, for a Christian walk, for your Christian walk? Why should you spend the extra time in your very all-consuming life to plan out what you think God is calling you to do in the short amount of time you have on earth? Do you know your talents and strengths that God has given you to carry out His plan for your life? That you complete His will with? Do you understand how your personality affects your daily interactions with others and how you can use that you move forward in the will of God? Do you have the gift of healing, prophesy, signs, wonders, miracles? You have been created for a purpose and God would not place you on this rock ill-equipped. I have seen way too many people try and cut wood before putting on the chain. Your chain is the special way that God has put you together. You know that the Bible states to take time to sharpen the saw (Axe):

Ecc 10:10 - If the ax is dull, And one does not sharpen the edge, Then he must use more strength; But wisdom brings success.

This message touches at the heart of Applied Strengths Ministry (ASM) and is, I believe, todays answer for the world via the church. The authentically born-again, bride of Christ, filled and overflowing with the Holy Spirit, running first and foremost to serve the Kingdom of God in power that will shake this planet to repentance and usher in a harvest not yet seen by the eyes of this world church. You know every corner on this planet must have one of these right? Nope. Walgreens and fast food restaurants have the corners for now. And why not, doesn’t the world rush in wherever the church leaves presence voids? Yup.   

So how high does my horse have to be for me to declare that ASM is the “answer?” I mean who would say such a thing but an arrogant fool. Well I’m no fool but for Christ, and I have read the stories in the Bible and believe even the Index to be flawlessly true, so given that God seems to respond to an aching heart for Him and for relationship with Him, it is quite possible that what I have stated is true. Now it won’t be because I have the tools to bring it about, nope, it will be because there is power in the kingdom of God. Now I am not talking about magic, nope…I know I have got to stop saying nope and yup, but side track me not, I must remain focused so as to finish typing this out. 

Can we go on a non-drug induced trip? Ok so let’s go. Imagine being in heaven right now seeing the earth and all that is going on about it. No sin, selfishness, flesh to impede your vision or sight, just pure looksee loo. And in that moment you get a revelation of the distinction or difference between the power that resides on earth and the power that resides right where you are sitting. And what if God asked you for your opinion on how you might plan on setting up a ministry that would be effective for your generation. Now don’t forget you are right then aware of the difference in power, the spiritual tools available to you, Gods provisional and logistical assistance, the horde of angles and fiery chariots and horses at your disposal, and because you can see unobstructed in that moment, you can see the lost and wondering sheep.  

Well so you see in that brief moment you could have quite the strategy for success right? But wait a minute. Something was missing in Heaven that only existed on the earth. Faith, oh but you know it that faith to believe and to call those things that don’t exist as though they do. Now my advantage just shifted didn’t it? I can see and believe it from Gods perspective right here on earth.

There is a movie, and I’ll wrap up this intro with this, called 300. Now that is one of the coolest battling against the hordes of creeping things and people who are bent on unjust murder movies out there. I know Lord of The Rings has lots of creepness in it also, but no this 300 movie as cool as it is, pails in comparison to what I want this ministry to do to the kingdom of darkness that is currently swaying the whole of this planet as I sit and type this out. With revival and deliverance, and salvations comes warfare almost equal in proportion. I am ready because I am not ready. The Bible says when sin abounds then grace abounds more. Grace is a fiery weapon infused with the love of God and when exercised properly can shake the planet straight up for God. Listen, and plant a seed, and help me build this ministry. We are limitless and have yet to see what our great and mighty God can do and to what lengths He will go for the lost souls of His clan.

What is this about Ken? Well as a believer in Christ you have been removed, mindfully that is, from any who are not believers. This doesn't mean you move out of your house or neighborhood if you get saved. It means that you begin to distinguish the differences and behave accordingly.  Most I am sure have never heard a message like this because you would have to have a bit higher of an emotional intelligence (EQ) than a baby Christian. As you listen through this message seek how God might be asking you to make any adjustments as it relates to your current relationships. This is very important for your growth and for your maturity into being a disciple and for being equipped for the work of ministry. The unsaved can present a huge, and do, distraction to those who don't know how the devil works nor how God works. If you're offended that I said that...great let's start there and grow together. It is after all your choice as to which of the 10-virgins you want to be (Matt 25:1-13).

So who in the jungles of Paradise would title a message "Gorilla Bananas" and expect anyone to get where the story might be going. Well, I would and I do because I am me, and after more than four decades of shying away from me because I was sure I was born faulty, I finally adopted the fact that God had really made me this way and that I should live out the rest of my days in some part convincing others who also didn't fit into the faulty and falsely created mold. I am a pretty funny guy and strangely enough I don't need you to laugh to validate this fact. But know that you are dealing with an authentic guy who simply tired of the labels no one else could proudly wear even though it was they who created them; or their parents or other members of the family. Either way you be you, let them be them, and us be us.

Thanks for the minute...I am back. So this message is about the hard stuff that we often do not focus on being unless you are a religious nut or Jesus Himself who has returned and is hiding among us in the crowds. So now I had to make an assumption here in that you are a bit like me in that these things are for the other guy that I will probably never run into on this planet. Nope, they are not and I assure you, you get no pressure from me to try and be them, to wear them, to embody the entirety of their attributed selves.

But so let's say we try. Let's say we give it a go and see if God in faith can bring this about in our lives.

No father, no mother, no genealogy? How is this so? Well does satan have any of these? Nope, so then there you go; no but he is not of the line of satan. I felt that I needed to say that just in case you thought...oh well never mind. 

 In this series you will find out the mystery of who this man, person, creature being is. And more than that you will find out some other excerpted sections from other messages that hem this message in so to speak.  Now of course because those Hemmite's are important I did separate more comprehensive messages on them, and you will know once we get into the message what I am talking about. But for now let's talk about what so few Pastor peeps talk about. You know I get their limitations in speaking about such matters in that we, that is the church, seem so busy keeping babies, babies that it is hard to find the meat eating crowd.  T-Bone anyone!

In today’s world there is a great attack against those in authority. Now we cannot blame the God-blind from actin’ the fool and doing things that a person of God can see as harmful or even just plain stupid. What, you want a modern day example? Ok so here is a sign of the times with a sign as big as the moon. 

“Defund The Po Po”

Of course criminals are in favor of such an action. Hello? Why would they not want those in authority to be in authority? Remove someone from a position of authority and someone else will fill it. That’s how it works. Self-promotion is the easiest way to get into something you are not equipped or called to be in. Now behind these type of statements is the one who attempted to usurp his authority and extend it to the next position above his. The problem was that there was already someone sitting in that chair and He didn’t vacate it…

The light of darkness beware…

So in this message I was compelled to start with the New Testament and go into the Old Testament. Not sure why but I didn’t even plan on doing a message on the many faces of darkness because I thought it was kind of clear cut…at least in my mind. But that doesn’t even matter because as I was working on a message and pulled up a scripture that had the word “darkness” in it, I believe that God wanted me to shift from that message and start on this one. Simple. Besides the message titled, “Nicodemus Is What It Looks Like To Go From Saved To Saved” is about a saved dead man and a delay in the message shouldn’t run his patience short, but the “Darkness” message seems to be a “right-now” message or Word. Right now meaning I type it up this week and then go to Digi-film in the Spring or just keep it sounding.

Well if you’re going to be defined as an "oholic" then by all means pick one that speaks to purpose and destiny, rather than one that steals it. I have been other oholics but have found that this is the best type to be. 

 This comes from the mantra, "In service of others." not sure who coined it but no doubt they didn't expect that it would...change as many people as it did...I know I did it again. But let me alone it's my two cents. Oh there is no hope here.

 Helping others to be the best version of themselves is something worth living and dying for. You see if you placed 100 people in a room and gave those who were living life, striving to be the best version of themselves, a green t-shirt, and you gave the one’s who were simply living life in a 100% reactive mode, only 10 or 12 people would be wearing a green shirt. Some ask the question what happened to America, and to that, I would say that we lost direction and purpose when we walked away from God. Get God, get purpose, and live!

The idea for this message came from watching football. I began to notice how many drinking commercials there were. But what caught my attention was another unrelated but related commercial which opened up with a tagline indicating that the man walking down one of the infamous tunnels that the team travels down to enter onto the field, he was a retired football coach. He began drawing on a white board and made three points about gambling. One of the points stood out: he stated something to the affect, “gamble responsibly.” Now this isn’t the first time a commercial has peeked my interest and made me think perhaps I am nothing more than a dumb Elephant as I sat there eating another handful full of my spicy peanuts. I wondered if that is why they said such-and-such in that commercial – because they think that I am a dumb Elephant. 

Now because of the way my mind works I began to flash through my mental commercial rolodex and found that other industries also using the same lie to lure you into taking a first or the next step into a very additive and potentially lethal habit forming habit. Watch me pull a rabbit out of my rabbit right! No, but so anyway they throw the dog a bone so that you are not focusing on the “killer product” which could be the bone, but they get you to focus on fruit of the-slight-of-hand, that is that they get you to believe there is meat on that thar bone so get ta nibbling.

Now if you are not a sinner and have never allowed anything to grip your Adams apple then this message is not for you. However, if you know that the devil likes to get you to fish in a pond called potentiality then you should endure the strange beginning to this message with the promise that it will get better.

So, what with the sharp title Ken? Well let me first welcome you back to this podcast, and if it’s your first time I can understand the question, but if you have been with me a while you know to stick around so that you have the opportunity to be completely wrecked for God in spite of what you believed before checking in on what I had to say. So, but back to the Nubian, welcome and stick around same, same for you. 

Now that we got that out of the way, I am totally fired up for this message because instead of pulling up one of the 150 unfinished messages in the Q, this one popped in my head through an image I had already made for it as I knew one day, I would do a message on prayer. So, but now that you don’t think me a bit squirrely in my message selection, it, meaning this is what I normally do. I wait for something, hopefully God and He forgives me for calling Him a thing, but do what I normally do, I want to post the message He wants you to hear...

We are no doubt the most trained up Christians on the planet in all of time. I say this considering all of the available resources that indeed are available to us in these days. TV, Radio, Internet, social media, YouTube, Computers, cell phones and tablets, and the e-bible in which many are free. Yup let us not forget the seminaries and Universities, and the plethora of churches, conferences and concerts that take place on this planet every day. And let’s not discount the effects of the 100’s of revivals and awakenings that have come our way. So not all of these things have happened in our lifetime, but you get what I am saying as compared to a scribe who carries a limited number of pens and scrolls to document the greatest event in history. We should be considered the generations of no excuses. Well so maybe that was a bit over-the-top but, well I say this because those original 12-guys turned the world upside down. While we for4 the most part go round-and-round. 

Now before you hang up or get out of the car, first stop the car then get out, but that being said, see what solutions are offered to what could be the most radical generation the Bible ever spoke about. Now if you go looking for that statement you will need to read Joel chapter 2. It’s right in there. Yes that could be us. Search the matter out and see for yourself.

Unless you’re stomping out bricks without straw and given an unrealistic timeframe for doing so, it is nearly 100% improbable that what you need is a real job. Now I am 60-years old so now I am going to have to quote a quote, quoted many times in that upbringing which is, “when I was your age.” Ha now the difference is I haven’t stopped doing what I started doing to get me to where I am at right now; meaning when mom and dad taught me to work hard first by example then by demanding choirs, it stuck. 

Now if I left you here you might think I got to where I got and am doing what I am doing on shear human persistence and intelligence. Yup, of course it was my degree’s that opened the doors to my current future. And of course it was my upbringing that shaped me into the person I am today; ha there is some truth to this today, but Jesus is still working on me. And boy all those books I read must have made a huge difference in my ability to promote. I say yes and no. The yes part is because those things that I have done may have allowed me to walk through doors that God has opened, but none of them, no not one, keeps me in my position. 

You see it is God who opens a door that no man can shut, and shuts a door that no man can open. Not man’s ability or education, or craftiness that does the job. Nope, and yes, we have a role but believe you me if God was not in the picture as well as hanging the picture all is for not. Now you must listen to this powerful message to get the treasure of what I just said.

Ha isn’t this an oxymoron Kenneth Leroy Shelton? An angry Christian?

You see, well wait, perhaps we should type in the, uhm, let’s call them goal scriptures for the less sanctified like me. This is the first one....

This message started its life out as a 4-part series. This however makes it difficult for those who want the whole bite all at once. Well, so here it is four into one.

So you think that you are smarter than your parents which you also believe will give you an edge in life? Perhaps you believe you will not struggle with the same things that they did, thus making you a better human being than they were?

I ask these questions for you because anyone who has been paying attention to our culture, the world in fact, knows that the family unit has been attacked and by all appearances seems to be losing the fight. Not possible you say? Sodom and Gomorrah had a breakdown in the family unit and lost their minds and their cities in the end. 

Don’t think it can’t happen to America? Well, like King Solomon who by Biblical accounts was smarter or rather had more wisdom than his father King David, we too can think we are smarter or have more wisdom than those cities of old, but in a strange analogy I reply, if you saw a snake before it bit you, would it in anyway still be able to bite you? Let me save you some energy – YES it can and if we repeat the mistakes of those who went before us we will incur the same judgement they did because God never changes…

This message started its life out as a 4-part series. This however makes it difficult for those who want the whole bite all at once. Well, so here it is four into one.

So this isn’t necessarily about proving that there really is only one God. This is already a fact. But, and so you don’t get thrown off when you read scriptures such as the following one, I just want to be clear that there is a distinction between the definitions of God and god(s):

Deut 32:17 - They sacrificed to demons, not to God, To gods they did not know, To new gods, new arrivals That your fathers did not fear.

You see we are created to worship something we believe that is greater than us, or when we are absorbed in sins, something that we think we can be equal to, or get something from that we think we cannot get from God Himself. But now even at this I am not trying to distinguish but to show that when we breakup with God we default to god(s); to worshipping other gods. Now these are actually demons in which our sin and the absent of God are empowered to show and to demonstrate power. Additionally we can create beastly images which can act as gates allowing demonic power to manifest.

So these so called false gods, i.e Baal, feed off of and get permission from us by our worshipping and sacrificing to them. What does that look like you might me asking? Watch CNN or most other news stations and listen to their confirmation that God has or is leaving the building thus those false gods who come in because we are created to worship something, are breaking every promise that ever did they or you think that they made with you.

You would think we wouldn’t need to go over the benefits of making disciples that last and equipping the saints for the work of ministry, but in these days we have become very focused on winning the lost to daycare style churches. Yup I just made that up. But no we must bring a balanced approach to a church absent of revival so that we keep the fish we are catching. It does no good to boast about a record catch if you are in the midst of a perfect storm. No discipleship, no equipping, and no maturing the saints for spiritual growth. Do that and you get what we got…a world in turmoil grasping for the on-the-shelf-god in hopes for any hopes. Take a listen and see if we cannot resolve this dilemma together.

What do you do if you get caught in a situation whereby the rule(s) that you initially established to control an outcome of your choosing has been successfully challenged and defeated? 

What have we seen throughout all of history, including and especially in the religious community? Where exactly did penitence come from? How about Purgatory? Redefining the truth!

Did not Pilate say to Jesus what is truth (John 18:38)? Is it possible that he knew you could just redefine the rules that supported your initial definition of what or how the truth was defined at the time? Come and see where this is going, just don’t wear your lie-dye t-shirt…lol

This message started its life out as a 5-part series. This however makes it difficult for those who want the whole bite all at once. Well, so here it is five into one.

So by all accounts you might think by the contents of this message that this is a message about money. It is but not really. It is also not about faith which is also discussed. It is about using fear to guide our faithless decisions and calling it wisdom when challenged by your leader as to why you are walking in the flesh. Yup it is about the wisdom that is sensual as the bible references. 

If moved by the money thing then great as we all struggle in many things and no doubt money, in one form or another, is on our short list. Wanna know if it is you, go out to a restaurant you normally don’t frequent, an unfancy place at that, and order some coffee and toast, and then upon leaving leave a $100 tip and walk out before you get caught. Yup I hit on two barriers or arguments that some yall peeps will hit and that is that you don’t want to leave the money at all or that if you do you want others to see it.

If the faith section leads you to want to operate more in the gifts of God then by all means let that be your take-away. Whatever it is that you take, take something away least you remain in the same poor position that you are currently in. Tune the tone and listen up!

Is it possible that Hell will be burned up? Or maybe just burning for eternity? Does being thrown in the lake of fire end everything including the existence of whatever is tossed in it? Does this mean hell has a duration of time assigned to it? 

No doubt when you woke up this beautiful morning these questions came rushing to you in the night rest and couldn't wait to populate your brain with the thought of hell. Right?

No but these are great questions for a believing and enquiring mind to have some answers to. Find out as you listen to this message.

This message is about the value of reading your Bible, the steps for gaining revelation from the Word, and an example or two of what the maturity process looked like in the times of Jesus. If you have a Bible reading plan that is working then I would ask that you not toss it out. It is working or in other words you are growing from the exercise of reading and applying what it says the way you are studying it so why change. Changing your reading plan won’t make you more committed to change, you have to want to change. One of the most motivating things for me to want to change is to look at the difference between my life and the life of Christ. When I have loathed and gagged to googling enough, I am more open to allowing the Word to transform my thinking and being.

Welcome to the truth about death. It is not the end of life per say as D-Com defines it. Yes but no. you see death can concurrently be titled the finish line of this life, and the starting line of our new life. Now I must say that this new definition only applies to the authentically born again believer. Oh but yes it also applies to those who are voluntarily not saved, but after the end of this life, they enter into a new space, and I fret to call it life, but they will be alive in hell. And so but even now you can change that with a quick listen of my other messages so that this is no longer your destiny. 

I use the term door in this message to describe a crossing over if you will. Earth life exists on one side of the door and heavenly life on the other. Yes at some point the door will no longer exist because the option of choice will be extinct. Find out in your listening if death is not now killing your assigned purpose in God while you are still living on the earth side of the door.

This is my forth message on a topic that is near and dear to my heart because of wonderful unimaginable exciting experiences it affords when intentionally managed and addressed as a battle. I actually will have finished it before my third message on the same subject but so be it. 

I say again with a twist and that is that this subject is so near and dear to my heart because of its destructive force when it is used by the devil to bring people into an oppressively constricting and totally darknessing bondage that is difficult to break and escape from. If I could use deeper darker experlatives which by the way sounds better than explicatives, I would, but I think I ran out right then.

This is not a story about UFC fishermen, a wayward boating trip, Jesus Caspering His disciples; nope, this is about understanding that if you call for something to enter into a decision, circumstance or situation and you are not getting the results that you are expecting, which is Jesus results, as those are the results we should all expect, then take a look at your words and thoughts in that very moment and deal with them. Ask yourself, “What have I invited to this decision, to this comment, to my response to this situation?” Change what you speak to a situation and you will get different results. The situation will obey like the rock, trees, winds and waves, yes the donkey, even the donkey. LOL

Yeah baby we are truly in it to win it. Now...do you have any idea as to what I am talking about? Nope, because I am known to mislead you to the truth. See I just did it. 

 This should be named, "How Committed Are You To The Things Of God?" but that would have been too direct and it lacks the boom ba to peak your interest. So enough about the title. 

 So how committed are you to the things of God? Well, if you didn't know it matters, and matters a whole lot, way more than you might initially have thought, then you should take a listen. Being a Christian is like a real thing that so few, even Christians, are unaware of. 

 Be aware, don't get caught off guard and you won't fall asleep in the Garden.

Yes of course all supernatural power that exists comes from God. But we know that we are given supernatural power to do the work of God, and all I am saying is that so is satan. It is important for us to know what power is being used in that moment, and who is using it being god or the devil. No not like real them, but who is God or satan using to display their power on earth. I thought that this message may be helpful to the believer that is not aware that the battle is fought in supernatural realms, using supernatural power or same, same, supernatural weapons. If you do not have the Holy Spirit, then you are walking around the battle theatre with weapons but no ammo. Hummm....good luck? I don't even know what to say of that thinking given it is written in the Bible that we would be given weapons which are mighty for pulling down strongholds. Lock in load you are in war Christian soldier!

It is my belief that the Bible is for 3-people groups and I say this because I also believe that there are only three people groups in existence. 

I also want to share before I begin that I had initially considered to distinguish each of the three people groups separately, but then decided against it as I wanted to leave the distinguishing to you. In your reading you should be able to see which of the three people groups a person is in be it in the Bible or those in your life. When the bible states to test every spirit it in essence is telling us to know our audience (1 John 4:1). We need to be able to distinguish who we are addressing so that our responses can be measured according to what they can receive from us. If you end up in a conversation with someone who cannot hear and cannot see the things of God then there is a response that would be most effective for that person. I have gone to meetings where the ill-equipped believer who was not equipped for the work of their ministry was trying to win the devil to the church and Jesus. Now before you pass judgement on that situation you should consider the effectiveness of your church in your community. Does it operate in miracles, signs and wonders? Does it have a supernatural testimony in the community? Are all of the peeps being equipped for the work of ministry? Do you focus more on having spiritual babies (preaching the gospel and inviting lost souls through the doors of your church), than on raising the parents to care for the babies you already have? …

Who wins in your decisions? The “dumb” you who often acts independently in a spirit of pride and inflated self-confidence, or the “wise” you that seeks to communicate and involve others who are added wisdom in your decision making endeavors? Did you know that the “dumb” you is at war with the “wise” you? Did you know that the “lack of understanding knowledge” part of you, and we can all, at some point in time, fall into that box, is at war with the “current level of understanding of the knowledge that you have, knowledgeable” you? Yes, the twin sisters named “stupid” and “dumb” are at war with you, attacking your communication center. What? Don't have wars in the natural that tell us that communication or the lack thereof wins or loses wars? Listening, hearing, and seeing, when in action are the greatest weapons we have for fighting this war. So now you know that one of the greatest battles you will face is making wise decisions over dumb ones. And the results you got will tattle and tell you who was zooming who. Look…

So is this a message about attending the life or cell group of Jesus? Yes and well no but yes. You see you cannot see, and well you hear but are tone deaf to his voice, that is unless you are BORN AGAIN. I wonder how many young people have never even heard this saying, “born again?” I think the older generation that may have grown up in the church may grow to believe that everyone knows what this means. However, the past generation did not do as good of a job as the previous one as church became secondary to the American way of life. The women entered into the workplace and although unintentional or born out of necessity, they had others raising their children. And if both work then both come home tired and ill equipped to bible on through the rest of the evening. 

No this in not a chat about women in the workplace – just one man’s perspective as to how we leaned away from teaching our kids about God and the things of God, and fortunately for me time has proven me right, a position I could care less about.   

You know what they say, if you want it get it! Listen up!

So we often hear about the “cost” to be a Christian, an authentically born-again on fire for God Christian, not those other peep Christians. And we are in many ways left to determine what that means. For example culture plays a role in defining costs as believers back in the way day seemed to pay a much higher price than we do in America for example. Surely not in all cases, but it has been a minute since we have heard or read about a Christian getting pulled a part because they believe in the Son of eternal life. In fact Jesus has never been so welcome considering the version getting handed out today. Oh but wait before you jump off your sofa. First give a listen to this entire series and tell me I am wrong in my assessment. This steak is going to need some wine time so be prepared least to whine. You know I love you but something has to change and I think it should be you and I.

The title of this message is Close But No Cigar.

Oh see there I go again with me stuff. Let’s move on to you stuff. 

There’s this way of thinking that goes something like this: I am a good person so God would never send me to hell with the likes of Hitler and Stalin. No way would he send me to dwell with satan and the 1/3 angels who fell would He?

Do you want to know why you can curse God? Do you want to know why you can reject Him, spit in His face, compare your sins equal to His payment to be free from them, do you want to know why you have a right to breath, to walk in His creation and do whatever it is you want to do with it – do you want to know?

You either have a living faith or a dead works faith, and if your works are to be found as wood, hay, and stubble I caution you to stay away from anything that has a flame until you correct that definition of your doing (1 Cor 3:11-15). But so that we don’t put the donkey behind the cart although I think he would rather be situated there, we move to the message portion of this message.  

When I was a kid I always liked watching the Three Stooges. Perhaps it was funny that three grown men would act a kind of way.

Sitcom? No…well yes but no this message is not about TV shows. I have heard it too many times not to address it. It being the statement, “What is the will of God?”  You can test this out by hitting the pause button and going somewhere, anywhere you can find a Christian, and ask them what the will of God is. Alright go ahead and make it more personal, ask them what the purpose of God is for their life? Ha now we see the roots exposed. Way too many of us Christians do not know the will of God, in part because we do not ask him or read his Word, so we end up taking small shuffly lil steps hoping to get it right…well whatever it is. Nope, nope, nope. 

We can know the will of God corporately and personally. He has outlined it in his Word. Now hold your donkeys for those of you that might be taking this to the next step already – provide me a moment to explain.

So we chat about Christians, authentic, the real-deal Christians getting along long enough to turn the world upside down. We are as effective these days as fireworks that are never removed from the box in order to be put on display. They were designed to be seen and so are we, but not in and of ourselves, but that He would be seen in and through us.  You did not join a religion, a set of rules, nor even a way of living, but a way of being, of existing, of behaving. Too have issues with one another shuts down the power and display of God and the Gospel. It is my prayer that you get this and begin to restore any infractions that would keep the power of God dormant in your life. Let's be filled, full, and firing on all Christian cylinders.

By the title you can tell I am speaking us'ins. To those who are or think that they have salvation all wrapped up. If you consider that only 50% of the virgins had it right, then you may be compelled to take a looksee. Jesus stated that narrow is the path that leads to life and there are few who find it. 

 Yes to Jesus is the beginning not the end.  

 Saying you are a Christian without any evidence that you are is worthy of a second listen. All of my messages are good but this one is good and important...and shareable and wearable. Ok so stop you know me I like word rhymes, that's the only reason I said wearable. 

 If you find that this is helpful don't forget to share or lead people to the podcast. Let’s build this ministry together, and besides you get all the credit if they get saved...oh but you know I am just kidding...we will split it 50 - 50.

So if you are keeping up with my podcast messages you may be aware that God the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit gave each of us gifts. The gift that I am currently operating in, in this ministry is the Teaching gift found within the fivefold ministry described in Ephesians (Eph 4:11-16). The following scripture is a gift that Jesus left us, but first think upon this. When I read this scripture and try and listen to what each word is saying. Oh the richness and depth of what it is saying. The absence of the understanding of what this is saying has no doubt led to the church condition today. What I think happens if you study anything like I did when I first began to blast through the Bible is that when you hit these scriptures you skip along the top of them never getting the revelation of what each of these positions means.

Is this where I get serious? Message 98? Nope, I try not to take anything serious, as I do what I am called to do sober-mindedly. Laughter is good medicine and I am funny, not at the, "I-should-be-getting'-paid" funny. 

 But this is an interesting perspective on God. It is because what I hear so much about God would confirm to the spiritually ignorant that every person born will be in heaven because God is Love.  But it is here that we must also recognize that He is also just. You see Christianity is not a game; not a religion, otherwise Jesus on the cross would be nothing more than a joke. I am for sure confident that God is not playing some masterful joke on humanity.  Based on what I have done myself, and have seen, read, and heard of what others have done, this stuff is anything but a joke. Let's look at a side of God that's difficult to understand but must be looked into least both ends don't meat!

So of course we know that dirt is alive because it produces all kinds of manner of vegitative fruitfulness. Isn't this why Jesus gave them and us the story about the condition of soil? It's a story right out of the Garden of Eden in which He placed Adam, red dirt, to tend to the soil in the garden so that it too would be fruitful and multiply. Isn't it like God to give us so many parallels from just one product which in this case it is dirt? 

 The seed reacts to the quality of the soil and produces henceforth. Not sure if that word fits but I like it so there it is. The Word of God is the seed that is sown into you, a person made from soil. Now but the quality of that soil is dependent on the quality of your relationship with God. If it is all living then it will over power the seed and dormatise it or kill it. If however, the soil consists of the living Word, water, and some dead stuff, namely you, then the harvest can stretch to 100 fold. See for yourself.

I know, like I don't have to tell you that this is not a message about Tina Turner do I? But really if she knew about this message, she may want to rewrite her song the way it is currently written. Love has everything to do with anything that has to do with God. No love, not His. No love, not going to the spirit in the sky. No love, no idea what the Kingdom of God is like.

There is a lot I do not know about the love of God. So much so that I probably shouldn’t have agreed with God to write this message. But if I don’t who will? No I really mean who will. Moses wasn’t let of the hook when God called him out of the desert land of I thought I was going to retire here, to a land that was all but too willing to take him out at the first glance of his shepardly mug.

So but now I know that you want to listen to me babble on about one of thee most missed attributes of God today as not seen by many regardless of whether they believe in God or not. Love appears to have been replaced by unchecked emotions. Yup, don’t you believe it for a minute; love is not an emotion, but an act of service appropriate to the type of love that is in play. When done properly it can stir your emotions, but never allow your emotions to define what love is. No doubt we have all missed the boat with this one. Turn up the decibels and learn.

Darn it I did it again. What a crazy title. But stick around because it has nothing to do with hummm. Nothing. 

I have explained this in some of my other messages whereby it is mostly the titles that load me with all the information I need to develop the message. Without a title I struggle to write anything. 

But back to the title. I am not saying that we have or can have sex with God. Nope I am not. What I am saying is that as I did a study on the word “Know” in the Bible it brought up in some very key scriptures, which in fact tell us the very reason we were saved.  Once you get on the other side of the cross it is incumbent upon you to seek to know God.

Surprise, surprise not what I am referring too but nonetheless it seemed like a good hook. So this message is based out of Luke and includes an actual chat between someone in hell and a couple of guys in heaven. De-par-tation you know as I was preparing this message I was thinking in that very moment when the hell guy was looking into heaven talking with the fella's that it cannot but be a most miserable place to be, that as you are now locked into your choice for hell over whatever you left behind on the earth, how deep the regret must have felt. It is interesting that the hell guy never asked for a second chance. It was like he knew, though extremely regrettable, that hell was his choice. I personally just cannot imagine living in such a miserable place knowing that second chances no longer exist. Living with the absence of everything God created for the rest of eternity is at this point in my life unimaginable. Ok so but it was just a thought...enjoy the message and learn and burn for no other reason than for God.

So there is a story about a discussion that took place in the fog. This version is written by Tom Wadsworth posted on DASMA in 2005. 

Plowing at night through rough, foggy seas, a battleship’s radar suddenly indicates an object directly in its path. The ship’s captain sends a radio signal, “We are on a collision course. Advise you to change course 10 degrees north.”

A response crackles over the radio: “Negative. We advise you to change course 10 degrees south.”

The captain can now see a blinking light from the approaching object. Perturbed, he bellows a reply: “I’m a ship’s captain. Change course 10 degrees north, now!”

“I’m a seaman second class,” comes the reply. “Advise that you change course 10 degrees south to avoid imminent collision.”

The captain is furious. He blurts another command: “This is a battleship! Change your course immediately!”

Back comes the calm reply: “This is a lighthouse.”

The battleship changed course.

Who let the dogs out, who let the dogs out? So you might think after listening to some of these messages that I am thinking that I am smarter or more Christian than the listener. But this is not how it works. You see, when a healing man or women of God enters a town like a gun slinger, to bring the gift of God to those who would have it, then the Dr’s are going to accuse him or her of practicing medicine without a license because they cannot do what they can do. Their fear and now exposed insecurity causes them to act like little children. They have no empathy for the sick. They are just mad that their success rate pales in comparison to the Son of God. You must ask was it ever about the patient or money? And why aren’t they emptying out the hospitals and bringing every patient to the healing revival if it actually is about the healing of the patient? I mean if healing is the objective of both the Dr and of man why the conflict?    

There is conflict because we are not lined up with Gods will as a human race. I love it when some things are just so black and white. 

So I teach because it is a gift that God gave me for you. Yes, it’s in the message. He gave men as gifts to one another for one another. It is impossible that you are a born again believer and giftless at the same time. You either didn’t know, or you are lazy or ignorant of the promises of God. No way anyway howeverway that you are giftless. I have other messages that teach you how to discover your talents and gifts therefore you should give an ear to them because I did them and now am operating in some of them in this ministry. 

Oh but this message is about your humanity getting in the way of your spiritual growth. Enjoy.

People don’t like you to touch the Holidays. They like the fanfare, the foods, cakes, and candy, the hope that family can come together willingly without disputes and drunken debauchery. Oh wait, where did that come from? Let’s not get started on the mountain debt that floods the whole earth. I know god stated he wouldn’t do that again. So but you see if we only look at the parts of the Holidays that we like then, well it’s like picking up a partially rotten apple and turning it to its good side and eating that. Wait Ken are you saying that we have become like that when it comes to our Holidays? Well I am saying more in this message and that is that I do not think those Holidays represent what we think and hope they represent. And in these days there is such a mixing between those who really know God and those who think they do but don’t have a clue, and then those who could give a hoot about Him or Jesus. I am not here to crush the dream of a perfect Christmas, I just want us to be cognizant of the fact that we shouldn’t give those Holiday’s permission to distract us from our pursuit of the one who in all likelihood would migrate to the mountains during these sacred events. You see in their current state if you took away the alcohol, the gifts, drugs, Holiday paraphernalia, and anything else that has nothing to do with what the holiday is supposed to represent then I don’t think anyone would show up. Now so you don’t think me such a downer of a person, I am into reinventing things. Just return to what those Holidays are really about and see if the One shows up.

A.W. Tozer stated, “If the Holy Spirit was withdrawn from the church today, 95% of what we do would go on and no one would know the difference. If the Holy Spirit had been withdrawn from the New Testament church 95% of what they did would stop, and everyone would know the difference.”

This is not a message about the Holy Spirit but about what happens to the church when He is not running the show. There ae several other points that I intend to make to ultimately demonstrate why church zombies exist. If you have been with me a bit you know the message titles, although sometimes a bit strange, usually facilitates a mental data-dump whereby I can draft up a message just on the title alone. I believe God has left my personality intact while also requiring me to teach and thus equip the saints for the work of Ministry:

Eph 4:11-16 - 11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the [a]edifying of the body of Christ, 13 till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; 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.

 Then but so then what is this all about Kenneth Leroy Shelton, oh I just heard my mom's voice. It is about the spiritual implications when we get a divorce. It is about how our natural marriages are equipping us for a spiritual and eternal one. It is about how we give birth to some small part of eternity through childbearing.

So I suspect I might know what a Pastor feels like when he is about to bring a message that is surely to stir things up a bit. And of course that is because we are stirupable people, especially in these days where God has placed an unexpected demand on His Church and Bride to see if she is up to the task. Well, we know she is not there yet and for sure His grace will get us there, but only as long as we do not ignore how we ended up in this place, in the first place and why it happened.

But this message is not that! I love doing that...

This message is about what has been going on well before the beginning of time and continues to and through today and will eventually culminate to its intended end when Jesus shouts "That's a wrap." Why I said earlier that I know how that Pastor feels is so that when I tell you, you understand that although I might feel that way, I should move forward in His will at any cost including the off chance that I could be wrong. Yes I could be wrong or off in any message. That is the risk we take as humans when serving God. My thought is that it is better to serve and make mistakes along the way than to have never served and thus avoiding making any messaging mistakes. But now if I may be a friend for a moment, it would be a greater mistake to avoid serving God in the fear that you may miss it, that to serve in your humanity. Enjoy the message.

Ah yes and Gen X 'ers says I know where he got this saying. He has to have brothers and sisters because no doubt he remembers his mother belting this out whenever there was a habble scrabble among the kids in the back seat of the hot smokey car. You see I had to justify our behavior. We had big cars when growing up including a red Catalina Station Wagon. But oh was it hot in the summer. She tried to take my finger and she did take my front teeth.

 But no the message is about those of us who think this is possible while also growing into the image of Christ. Paul's head was handed to him even though he said to get along with all men if it were possible. Now we know what he meant. That he wants to battle satan through humanity as if the satanic peeps knew what was happening to them. No, we do everything to get along, but know that as you look more Christ-Like trouble will hunt you down to test you at every turn. But you know we got this right? Yuppy we do.

What's your sign? Me. What? Me I am the Sign. 

What was that? That was a conversation between Jesus and an unsaved heathen in a bar that exists on a street with no name. Ok Ken still not gettin' it. Ok what this message is about is how to catch a woman Jesus way. No! It’s about how He is catching His bride, a gift from the Father to Him. It's a wonderful story and has within some great revelation which in some sense is related to the main theme and some not so much, but its revelation, who cares as long as I can use it to gain Christ.

It's not in the lost and found. You know that thing that Jesus was sayin' was lost. Nope, we handed it and other things to satan to lay the groundwork for needing a savior. I mean it wouldn't have been much fun if Jesus only came to restore our relationship with God. You see we also lost supernatural power and our authority to use it.  Yup, all gone but for except Jesus went down into the lost and found box in hell and recovered the big three that we would be restored to God, take authority over anything in opposition to His will and purpose, and to remove the strongman from the premises. Take a listen.

You’re not the boss of me. I know, right, remember? How many wars have been started over this one belief or value? It's embedded in out very core. What do they say, “Rotten to the bone.” Yes we are and so we remain from birth until now. We emphatically yell no one is going to tell me what to do! When someone exercises their authority it's like a flame to gasoline. Authority is a trigger to our innate rebellion. 

 It will be this very thing that ushers in the end of time. But, and you knew I was going to say it, this is not what this message is about. 

 This is more about who is leading you “pre-salvation” and “post-salvation.”  I think. :)

Dada, dada, dada, dada...ok so it’s difficult to reproduce the Jaws approaching tune, but you get the idea. So why a Hammerhead Shark? It's a strong message that clunks the head of peeps that feel they got to share stuff out of context or just out of ignorance. We can call them Jesus Police or something like that. Do we need to be careful what we put out there on the airwaves when sharing the Bible stuff? Yes, but when you, the somebody few know, come out and start telling everyone that this or that doesn't exist in the Bible and it is not clearer that the spring air blowing over Mount Everest, then shush. God doesn't bred confusion or intentionally poke someone in the eye for something so vague. 

 Ok so I feel better and this message is not entirely about that. Enjoy and forgive me if that person was you. LOL

What is with the zombie theme messages Ken? I am not sure maybe it’s the fact that 10% of movies out there are projecting these things into our little minds. At any rate, I am not trying to play off of those movies, but I saw this as I was reading about communion in the four Gospels. When I saw how John was telling the story I knew we had some hidden revelation about Jesus and what He might have been doing. You know He had groups of people in whom He communicated with differently with each group. Pater, James, and John were one of those groups, the remaining Apostles were another, the 70 yet another, and the crowds another, and Pharisees, teachers, and lawyers still others. 

You have heard it said if you are in the business world that if you are a public speaker or just doing presentations that you need to know your audience. Jesus operated in this principle before anyone else ever thought about it.

If you are asking me to give this message away right here, and right now, I must kindly refuse and invite you to discover the revelation that God may have for you in this message.

Okay so boy this title could get me in real trouble if it weren't for the fact that it was true but that she, the woman with the issue of blood, also came out of those issues properly. Are you stuck in a mess with no apparent way out? Struggling with decade long issues and problems? Never fear for Underdog is here...or rather the One who rescues those who are down and under something but actually know it and are just hungry enough to trust a stranger with an outstanding reputation to set a person free so as to risk it all or whatever is left. I did not schedule this for a future release because it is that helpful and so out it goes to e-land as a great helper to those with the ears to hear and eyes to see. Listen to both episodes so that you get the whole story.

Well I suspect this woman never took a risk management class, because dang she risked it all to get what nobody else could give her. Have you ever felt like that? If I haven't made it clear enough this woman was totally rejected by her culture, other women, men, employers, Dr.'s, SSA, the government, etc… But no for real the debt collectors would have been the last of her potential human contact if Jesus had not been assigned to wander into her life. Why things have to get so bad before we finally surrender and take the born again risk is beyond me. It's like Jesus was waiting for her to run out of her own resources, thinking and planning. If it is possible for you to get born again prior to bouncing off the bottom of the Ocean 12-times then take that option. Right! Okay so pay attention if you have the brain resources to do so...it is a great message.

I'm a cowboy, and on a steel horse I ride...could you see Jesus singing this while walkin' in da desert? Probably not but surely he wasn't an outlaw just because He did things that give us the appearance that He was actually breaking the law....or was He? And would He be walking in the desert if He had a steel horse?

 It is these types of messages that I love because God is in the business of destroying our first impressions. This is that, that is a first impression that we have to unravel to get the correct perspective on what it was or is that Jesus did and is doing even unto this very moment.

Of course people are going to start talking about the Damar Hamlin event. There is still a million questions we haven’t yet asked. But and now I am not prone to jump on any train called popularity and join in on the…well I don’t even know what to call it in nice words. But I am inclined to use any thoughts I have about anything so as to teach. And yes I really try and move in the footsteps of God. I try and go where He is. I think I have stepped on His feet from time to time getting in a hurry. You know that’s where the footsteps in the sand pictures came from, only everybody thinks when they only saw one set of prints in the sand it was Jesus carrying them. Nope, not in my picture, the one set of foot prints was because my feet were on top of Jesus as I tried to run in front of Him from time to time…lol.

So you have questions and you think you're ready for the answers? You've prepared to grow; you're running for God with everything in you? Okay here's a couple of things that I'm wrestling with that I don't totally have the answers to, or even know why I even have this stuff in my head, but I do think that God is doing something different in this season. Our nation tells us that the world systems are shaking, baking, breaking and telling us that there's something new going on, not new as in unexpected new from Gods view, but new as in the next thing for us, for this generation.

Let’s start off with a scripture that as we move through this message will be explained and make more sense than it might being left out here all by itself. 

1 John 3:17 - 17 But whoever has this world’s goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him?

There is no hoop to jump through that results in any preconceived notion of a big payoff in either money, prestige, or position. There is no brass ring, in fact the notion that the ring is brass and not gold should tell you who probably created this saying in the first place as no one wants to give up the gold who has the gold. Ha no brass ring anyway no how. There is no ladder rung worthy of steppin’ ceptin the one that extends from heaven to earth with angles ascending and descending (Gen 28:12). All of these ambitional traps do nothing but lead you away from your true purpose and calling. They are, as the bibles states of those that believe in them hypothetically speaking, clouds without rain. They do not produce what people think they produce. Let look:

2 Cor 12;20 - For I fear lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I wish, and that I shall be found by you such as you do not wish; lest there be contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, backbitings, whisperings, conceits, tumults...

All I wanna, all I wanna, all I wanna is to hear what I wanna wanna hear. Yes tell me what I wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna, hear. It’s the next blockbuster rytho-rap no doubt. Ha so it gets better as we leave my lyrics for a sound message for today’s believers. 

Have you thought about why the Pharisees were asking Jesus the obvious? Well it is obvious to those to whom it has been given but for those in whom it has not been given they cannot neither hear, see or understand the things of the kingdom of God. Well the good news is that this is addressed in the message as well as who can hear, who will never hear, and those who ae stuck in the middle, meaning that right now they may not be able to hear, see or understand but once the gospel cloud hits em square in the heart and they experience what it is to be authentically born again, then they will hear, see and understand. Now back to those who will never hear, see or understand, no doubt you are thinking, “hey Ken how can you make that comment when the bible states that God desires that all men be saved and that all one has to do is believe on the name of Jesus Christ to be saved.” Well those questions are answered and require your ears, mind, heart and soul to enter into this message. Enjoy

What in the wide wide world of sports is going on here! Devils Demons and COVID? And what nut came up with the saying, “the devil made me do it?” Of course he did if you are not born again. You are either a slave to righteousness or to sin. Sin is the front door to satan’s domain and when you sin, you open that door, and allow the devil to make you do all kina strange stuff. Now so but this message is bigger than just your personal you. Yup we gatta go there because we are in trouble even if it is Christmas season. We in the USA have made our bed and now we have lice, that is demons who are operating behind the guise of false or made up gods and empowering them to influence your ever decision. They operate in ranks and are also rank. And but so as you listen to this message you will see that we too as believers can operate in ranks operating with the fragrance of Christ:   

Eph 6:12 - For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against: 

1)     principalities, 

2)     against powers, 

3)     against the rulers of [a]the darkness of this age, 

4)     against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

No doubt you have seen some overlap in my messages if you are a fulltime listener. I try and develop the message that God wants to release when He wants to release it. And if you have read through that beautiful book you have noticed that God is a God of redundancy. He repeats Himself as if His words are like a hammer blow to our hard hearts grinding that stony thing to powder. There is such a need for us to wake up in these very days. He is moving….yes moving away from us as we have been asking Him to do so for decades. As He does so more and more, the devil is an opportunist and will fill every spiritual void left by the absence of the presence of God. No, yes there will be people who remain true to God in this season, but the number will be shockingly few. Did He not say the love of many will grow cold? They had love at one point 

Matt 24:12 – 12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.

So even though I have about 150 messages to type out and throw out in E-Land, I still ask God for a message from heaven that may be more important than the 150 He has already given me. Sometimes as I have explained in the past, the bucket tips over and I get bunches of messages, in fact they come so fast sometimes that I can barely set them up without fear of losing any one of them. I mean who wants to lose a Pearl given to them from God? 

This morning He gave me the message He intended on you to hear. Enjoy.

So three COVID shots later, already having it in December 2019 and I still got it again. Probably just an anomaly right? The first time in December 2019 and now in December 2022. Did I bring up COVID so as to debate the many sides of this thing? Nope, but I will say, and say it I will since I am the one talking, COVID or rather any sickness and/or disease comes in violation of two bodies of scriptures of which we right now are in violation of. Perhaps we should ask Michael if he should carry on with writing a citation for our negligence be it happening purposefully or in our ignorance of God and neither is the scape goat for how God deals with a rebellious people, especially those who once called Him their God. Oh I know, I must be talking about the 20%er’s who openly live and say that they don’t believe in God right? Nope again, as I know based on what the Bible states, that the majority of 80%ers are lying and/or deceiving themselves. If they think that because they say they believe in God that they are good with God then you have proven me to be right and being right is not my objective. I mean let’s test it so that you don’t waste any wind blowing against the plethora of religious lies that are used daily to keep you blind and deaf to the voice of God:

1 John 5:19 - We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.

If you are an authentically born again believer then it might be helpful for you to see that your Christian Life is an 80-year deployment, plus or minus. You have been deployed to Earth for a mission, cause, and a purpose. And it is imperative that you do everything you can to find out what that is. This will keep you distracted from the things of this Earth and keep you heavenly minded...

Ha you might be thinking that I should hide right about now after hearing that title. But you see me and God have our own unique style of relationship and besides I credit Him for making me this way. So no I did not just say that God is a liar. For Heb 6:18, Titus 1:2, and Num 23:19 tell us He cannot lie; thus God is not a liar. But I am saying that there are conditions that if not met then we can forfeit the promises of God over our lives. This story is evidence and an example of that very statement. Let’s lobe it to see.

Another strange day in Paradise – hey Ken what is up with these titles anyway? I told you they drop from the bottom of Gods clouds into my mind as I descend from Paradise to the Chico valley. I had other messages I was working on when this one landed. So what do you do…you change course and wait for God to download His intended message. This is that. But not only that but it is a full length message head to toe. Is it too much all at once, I just don’t know so perhaps after you have given an ear in sacrifice to its intended purpose you can let me know. Text at 530 591 0051.

So you think that you are smarter than your parents which you also believe will give you an edge in life? Perhaps you believe you will not struggle with the same things that they did, thus making you a better human being than they were?

I ask these questions for you because anyone who has been paying attention to our culture, the world in fact, knows that the family unit has been attacked and by all appearances seems to be losing the fight. Not possible you say? Sodom and Gomorrah had a breakdown in the family unit and lost their minds and their cities in the end. 

Don’t think it can’t happen to America? Well, like King Solomon who by Biblical accounts was smarter or rather had more wisdom than his father King David, we too can think we are smarter or have more wisdom than those cities of old, but in a strange analogy I reply, if you saw a snake before it bit you, would it in anyway still be able to bite you? Let me save you some energy – YES it can and if we repeat the mistakes of those who went before us we will incur the same judgement they did because God never changes…

I discovered this scripture while I was pulling another message together. I read it and thought to myself what a great reminder of what it looks like to be a Christian. To walk in step and in faith with God. You know as if we actually believed He wanted to hang around us. It is also a good reminder that we are indeed in a battle but that God is with us every step of the way. Be encouraged and sing along.

So this isn’t necessarily about proving that there really is only one God. This is already a fact. But, and so you don’t get thrown off when you read scriptures such as the following one, I just want to be clear that there is a distinction between the definitions of God and god(s):

Deut 32:17 - They sacrificed to demons, not to God, To gods they did not know, To new gods, new arrivals That your fathers did not fear.

You see we are created to worship something we believe that is greater than us, or when we are absorbed in sins, something that we think we can be equal to, or get something from that we think we cannot get from God Himself. But now even at this I am not trying to distinguish but to show that when we breakup with God we default to god(s); to worshipping other gods. Now these are actually demons in which our sin and the absent of God are empowered to show and to demonstrate power. Additionally we can create beastly images which can act as gates allowing demonic power to manifest.

So these so called false gods, i.e Baal, feed off of and get permission from us by our worshipping and sacrificing to them. What does that look like you might me asking? Watch CNN or most other news stations and listen to their confirmation that God has or is leaving the building thus those false gods who come in because we are created to worship something, are breaking every promise that ever did they or you think that they made with you.

The idea for this message came from watching football. I began to notice how many drinking commercials there were. But what caught my attention was another unrelated but related commercial which opened up with a tagline indicating that the man walking down one of the infamous tunnels that the team travels down to enter onto the field, he was a retired football coach. He began drawing on a white board and made three points about gambling. One of the points stood out: he stated something to the affect, “gamble responsibly.” Now this isn’t the first time a commercial has peeked my interest and made me think perhaps I am nothing more than a dumb Elephant as I sat there eating another handful full of my spicy peanuts. I wondered if that is why they said such-and-such in that commercial – because they think that I am a dumb Elephant. 

Now because of the way my mind works I began to flash through my mental commercial rolodex and found that other industries also using the same lie to lure you into taking a first or the next step into a very additive and potentially lethal habit forming habit. Watch me pull a rabbit out of my rabbit right! No, but so anyway they throw the dog a bone so that you are not focusing on the “killer product” which could be the bone, but they get you to focus on fruit of the-slight-of-hand, that is that they get you to believe there is meat on that thar bone so get ta nibbling.

Now if you are not a sinner and have never allowed anything to grip your Adams apple then this message is not for you. However, if you know that the devil likes to get you to fish in a pond called potentiality then you should endure the strange beginning to this message with the promise that it will get better.

In today’s world there is a great attack against those in authority. Now we cannot blame the God-blind from actin’ the fool and doing things that a person of God can see as harmful or even just plain stupid. What, you want a modern day example? Ok so here is a sign of the times with a sign as big as the moon. 

“Defund The Po Po”

Of course criminals are in favor of such an action. Hello? Why would they not want those in authority to be in authority? Remove someone from a position of authority and someone else will fill it. That’s how it works. Self-promotion is the easiest way to get into something you are not equipped or called to be in. Now behind these type of statements is the one who attempted to usurp his authority and extend it to the next position above his.

In today’s world there is a great attack against those in authority. Now we cannot blame the God-blind from actin’ the fool and doing things that a person of God can see as harmful or even just plain stupid. What, you want a modern day example? Ok so here is a sign of the times with a sign as big as the moon. 

“Defund The Po Po”

Of course criminals are in favor of such an action. Hello? Why would they not want those in authority to be in authority? Remove someone from a position of authority and someone else will fill it. That’s how it works. Self-promotion is the easiest way to get into something you are not equipped or called to be in. Now behind these type of statements is the one who attempted to usurp his authority and extend it to the next position above his. The problem was that there was already someone sitting in that chair and He didn’t vacate it…

Sometimes I get so excited to get into a message that I forget to hang up the target before shooting. 

So let’s hang it…

Why a message on mission, purpose, goals, for a Christian walk, for your Christian walk? Why should you spend the extra time in your very all-consuming life to plan out what you think God is calling you to do in the short amount of time you have on earth? Do you know your talents and strengths that God has given you to carry out His plan for your life? That you complete His will with? Do you understand how your personality affects your daily interactions with others and how you can use that you move forward in the will of God? Do you have the gift of healing, prophesy, signs, wonders, miracles? You have been created for a purpose and God would not place you on this rock ill-equipped. I have seen way too many people try and cut wood before putting on the chain. Your chain is the special way that God has put you together. You know that the Bible states to take time to sharpen the saw (Axe):

Ecc 10:10 - If the ax is dull, And one does not sharpen the edge, Then he must use more strength; But wisdom brings success.

What do you do if you get caught in a situation whereby the rule(s) that you initially established to control an outcome of your choosing has been successfully challenged and defeated? 

What have we seen throughout all of history, including and especially in the religious community? Where exactly did penitence come from? How about Purgatory? Redefining the truth!

Did not Pilate say to Jesus what is truth (John 18:38)? Is it possible that he knew you could just redefine the rules that supported your initial definition of what or how the truth was defined at the time? Come and see where this is going, just don’t wear your lie-dye t-shirt…lol

So here we go again with teaching on a marriage killer topic. Why we don't fight fire with fire is beyond me. We can all agree that if you bring a knife to a gun fight the odds are very lopsided unless you are Chuck Norris.

Before we role - question: is it not interesting that the most ignored subject in church is also the most abuses and twisted in the world? No don’t answer because you really haven’t had enough time to really think about what I just asked you.

We don’t have any problem discussing money in church which is where I think much of it belongs. Addictions, no problem, but chat about sex and how you can avoid the thousands of pitfalls that come with ignoring your sex life, and whalla the money goes out the door along with the raised in church prude that thinks that one topic should be left alone. Nope, not gonna do it. I have seen way too much carnage due to sexual ignorance, and it’s high time someone addressed the 800 lbs. gorilla sitting on the elephants back riding down the isle in a China shop in china…ok so maybe too far but you get the idea. If so then jump on the back of the Gorilla and be cautioned it’s going to be a hairy ride.

Is it really fair to call something repeating if it more like a different version of the same story? So why then should I share a different version of the same story if a version of the story already exists? Great question and it seems that the rule of a single version only fits with some artistic expression of which I think is the childhood stories than in most other expressions i.e. movies, music or dance. Look Little Red Riding Hood cannot change least we lose entire generations of kid-lings to the future history. And can you imagine in the broke up families one reading one version and another reading a completely different version to the same kid. Wow this could be an epic destroyer to red and the Wolf. 

All kidding aside, repeating stuff is bible. Hello we have four Gospels. I think Faith is repeated 365 times in the Bible – now this can’t be because there are 365 different meanings to it, can it? Nope.

This story is not a ditto copy to another one, like the Gospels it carries over some of the same elements and includes some new stuff. If you have a clear understanding that Satan has kids and god has kids and you know how this came about, then absorb the new elements and grow thus bigger.

This message is about the value of reading your Bible, the steps for gaining revelation from the Word, and an example or two of what the maturity process looked like in the times of Jesus. If you have a Bible reading plan that is working then I would ask that you not toss it out. It is working or in other words you are growing from the exercise of reading and applying what it says the way you are studying it so why change. Changing your reading plan won’t make you more committed to change, you have to want to change. One of the most motivating things for me to want to change is to look at the difference between my life and the life of Christ. When I have loathed and gagged to googling enough, I am more open to allowing the Word to transform my thinking and being.

You either have a living faith or a dead works faith, and if your works are to be found as wood, hay, and stubble I caution you to stay away from anything that has a flame until you correct that definition of your doing (1 Cor 3:11-15). But so that we don’t put the donkey behind the cart although I think he would rather be situated there, we move to the message portion of this message.  

When I was a kid I always liked watching the Three Stooges. Perhaps it was funny that three grown men would act a kind of way. The eye poke was pretty amusing as well as concerning because I wasn’t sure if it was real or not. Well…this is an eye poke message but meant to be administered kindly.

But so that we don’t put the donkey behind the cart although I think he would rather be situated there, we move to the message portion of this message.  

When I was a kid I always liked watching the Three Stooges. Perhaps it was funny that three grown men would act a kind of way. The eye poke was pretty amusing as well as concerning because I wasn’t sure if it was real or not. Well…this is an eye poke message but meant to be administered kindly.

So we often hear about the “cost” to be a Christian, an authentically born-again on fire for God Christian, not those other peep Christians. And we are in many ways left to determine what that means. For example culture plays a role in defining costs as believers back in the way day seemed to pay a much higher price than we do in America for example. Surely not in all cases, but it has been a minute since we have heard or read about a Christian getting pulled a part because they believe in the Son of eternal life. In fact Jesus has never been so welcome considering the version getting handed out today. Oh but wait before you jump off your sofa. First give a listen to this entire series and tell me I am wrong in my assessment. This steak is going to need some wine time so be prepared least to whine. You know I love you but something has to change and I think it should be you and I.

Darn it I did it again. What a crazy title. But stick around because it has nothing to do with hummm. Nothing. 

I have explained this in some of my other messages whereby it is mostly the titles that load me with all the information I need to develop the message. Without a title I struggle to write anything. 

But back to the title. I am not saying that we have or can have sex with God. Nope I am not. What I am saying is that as I did a study on the word “Know” in the Bible it brought up in some very key scriptures, which in fact tell us the very reason we were saved.  Once you get on the other side of the cross it is incumbent upon you to seek to know God.

People don’t like you to touch the Holidays. They like the fanfare, the foods, cakes, and candy, the hope that family can come together willingly without disputes and drunken debauchery. Oh wait, where did that come from? Let’s not get started on the mountain debt that floods the whole earth. I know god stated he wouldn’t do that again. So but you see if we only look at the parts of the Holidays that we like then, well it’s like picking up a partially rotten apple and turning it to its good side and eating that. Wait Ken are you saying that we have become like that when it comes to our Holidays? Well I am saying more in this message and that is that I do not think those Holidays represent what we think and hope they represent. And in these days there is such a mixing between those who really know God and those who think they do but don’t have a clue, and then those who could give a hoot about Him or Jesus. I am not here to crush the dream of a perfect Christmas, I just want us to be cognizant of the fact that we shouldn’t give those Holiday’s permission to distract us from our pursuit of the one who in all likelihood would migrate to the mountains during these sacred events. You see in their current state if you took away the alcohol, the gifts, drugs, Holiday paraphernalia, and anything else that has nothing to do with what the holiday is supposed to represent then I don’t think anyone would show up. Now so you don’t think me such a downer of a person, I am into reinventing things. Just return to what those Holidays are really about and see if the One shows up.

Sitcom? No…well yes but no this message is not about TV shows. I have heard it too many times not to address it. It being the statement, “What is the will of God?”  You can test this out by hitting the pause button and going somewhere, anywhere you can find a Christian, and ask them what the will of God is. Alright go ahead and make it more personal, ask them what the purpose of God is for their life? Ha now we see the roots exposed. Way too many of us Christians do not know the will of God...

The light of darkness beware…

So in this message I was compelled to start with the New Testament and go into the Old Testament. Not sure why but I didn’t even plan on doing a message on the many faces of darkness because I thought it was kind of clear cut…at least in my mind. But that doesn’t even matter because as I was working on a message and pulled up a scripture that had the word “darkness” in it, I believe that God wanted me to shift from that message and start on this one. Simple. Besides the message titled, “Nicodemus Is What It Looks Like To Go From Saved To Saved” is about a saved dead man and a delay in the message shouldn’t run his patience short, but the “Darkness” message seems to be a “right-now” message or Word. Right now meaning I type it up this week and then go to Digi-film in the Spring or just keep it sounding.

This is my forth message on a topic that is near and dear to my heart because of wonderful unimaginable exciting experiences it affords when intentionally managed and addressed as a battle. I actually will have finished it before my third message on the same subject but so be it. 

I say again with a twist and that is that this subject is so near and dear to my heart because of its destructive force when it is used by the devil to bring people into an oppressively constricting and totally darknessing bondage that is difficult to break and escape from. If I could use deeper darker experlatives which by the way sounds better than explicatives, I would, but I think I ran out right then.

So there is a story about a discussion that took place in the fog. This version is written by Tom Wadsworth posted on DASMA in 2005. 

Plowing at night through rough, foggy seas, a battleship’s radar suddenly indicates an object directly in its path. The ship’s captain sends a radio signal, “We are on a collision course. Advise you to change course 10 degrees north.”

A response crackles over the radio: “Negative. We advise you to change course 10 degrees south.”

The captain can now see a blinking light from the approaching object. Perturbed, he bellows a reply: “I’m a ship’s captain. Change course 10 degrees north, now!”

“I’m a seaman second class,” comes the reply. “Advise that you change course 10 degrees south to avoid imminent collision.”

The captain is furious. He blurts another command: “This is a battleship! Change your course immediately!”

Back comes the calm reply: “This is a lighthouse.”

The battleship changed course.

Let’s get into this message and see if there is a correlation.

Who wins in your decisions? The “dumb” you who often acts independently in a spirit of pride and inflated self-confidence, or the “wise” you that seeks to communicate and involve others who are added wisdom in your decision making endeavors? Did you know that the “dumb” you is at war with the “wise” you? Did you know that the “lack of understanding knowledge” part of you, and we can all, at some point in time, fall into that box, is at war with the “current level of understanding of the knowledge that you have, knowledgeable” you? Yes, the twin sisters named “stupid” and “dumb” are at war with you, attacking your communication center.

So this is what I would call a fat message in that there is a lot of stuff in it. Yes it is really all about options, proving you options. It is a meat treat that should give you some revelation in one or more parts of your current thinking about God and His requests and expectations. This is not one that you want to start somewhere in the middle and hop, skip, and jump all around looking for the nuggets laying on top the ground so you don’t have to dig for them. Dig I say dig and you just might be pleasantly surprised.

It is my belief that the Bible is for 3-people groups and I say this because I also believe that there are only three people groups in existence. 

I also want to share before I begin that I had initially considered to distinguish each of the three people groups separately, but then decided against it as I wanted to leave the distinguishing to you. In your reading you should be able to see which of the three people groups a person is in be it in the Bible or those in your life. When the bible states to test every spirit it in essence is telling us to know our audience (1 John 4:1). We need to be able to distinguish who we are addressing so that our responses can be measured according to what they can receive from us. If you end up in a conversation with someone who cannot hear and cannot see the things of God then there is a response that would be most effective for that person. I have gone to meetings where the ill-equipped believer who was not equipped for the work of their ministry was trying to win the devil to the church and Jesus. Now before you pass judgement on that situation you should consider the effectiveness of your church in your community. Does it operate in miracles, signs and wonders? Does it have a supernatural testimony in the community? Are all of the peeps being equipped for the work of ministry? Do you focus more on having spiritual babies (preaching the gospel and inviting lost souls through the doors of your church), than on raising the parents to care for the babies you already have? …

Be you, be you, be you in all that you do...and don't forget to do it in Christ. You are not replaced by Jesus but enhanced and empowered to do what He did when He was walking on the same dirt ball we are walking on. Yes you are a new creation and by all means take a moment to thank God for that miraculous miracle, and well if you can’t then you don’t hate the old version of you enough.

Message Ken message. This is a message about me and a bit about how I ended up writing and speaking the messages of God the way that I do. It’s about you also learning to tap into the best version of yourself especially now that you know that most who live their entire lives do not. Rewrite the end of your life today and hear the tune.

So by all accounts you might think by the contents of this message that this is a message about money. It is but not really. It is also not about faith which is also discussed. It is about using fear to guide our faithless decisions and calling it wisdom when challenged by your leader as to why you are walking in the flesh. Yup it is about the wisdom that is sensual as the bible references. 

If moved by the money thing then great as we all struggle in many things and no doubt money, in one form or another, is on our short list. Wanna know if it is you, go out to a restraint you normally don’t frequent, an unfancy place at that, and order some coffee and toast, and then upon leaving leave a $100 tip and walk out before you get caught. Yup I hit on two barriers or arguments that some yall peeps will hit and that is that you don’t want to leave the money at all or that if you do you want others to see it.

If the faith section leads you to want to operate more in the gifts of God then by all means let that be your take-away. Whatever it is that you take, take something away least you remain in the same poor position that you are currently in. Tune the tone and listen up!

This is not a story about UFC fishermen, a wayward boating trip, Jesus Caspering His disciples; nope, this is about understanding that if you call for something to enter into a decision, circumstance or situation and you are not getting the results that you are expecting, which is Jesus results, as those are the results we should all expect, then take a look at your words and thoughts in that very moment and deal with them. Ask yourself, “What have I invited to this decision, to this comment, to my response to this situation?” Change what you speak to a situation and you will get different results. The situation will obey like the rock, trees, winds and waves, yes the donkey, even the donkey. LOL

Some people see the mountains, some people see the boulders, some see the rocks, while others see the pebbles, and there are even some that see the sand. We all have the gift to see what we are created to see because it is known that we see what we want to see and that is because we were gifted to it.  Yes there is the other side of seeing which is that we cannot see clearly or at all that for which we were not designed to see. This is the point of frustration for many seers who think everyone should see what they see, when they see it, and interpret exacting what they saw. Boink! 

In this story Peter saw what Jesus saw and that was the Galilee sea miracle. See for yourself.

Teach, preach, heal, teach, preach, heal…got it J All of us can teach, preach, and heal others. It is different for the one who is called to be a preacher, a teacher or a healing Evangelist for example. I have used the example of a commercial fisherman versus the hobbyist fisherman. The commercial fisherman is called to be an Evangelist preaching to large groups of peeps, whereas the hobbyist preaches to his neighbor, banker, posts on his social media sites, etc. Both preach, teach, and heal, but at very different levels. 

Hey Ken why the fanatical details about fishing? What I am speaking against is the excuse that we can sometimes use to our own detriment is that the job is for someone else. Example: Hey I don’t need to preach, teach, or heal, we have Benny Hinn, or Reinhard Bonnke for such things. 

So in the context of teaching, this message is for the person who is called to be a commercial teacherman. Check it out and be encouraged.

I am not sure if I'm trying to dispel the myth that if you just wait until your last dying day before surrendering to God that all will work out.  Didn't Peter state that we are scarcely saved (1 Peter 4:18)?  I know some jump on the some who are first will be last and some who are last will be first, but I am not sure this is strictly talking about the last minute salvation waiters of the world. But even if it is, how will you know if you are living your last day? I mean accidents happen and few people that I know of commit their life to the Lord upon impact with another vehicle for example, or when caught in a gun fight at a family event. Anyway my thought is that you should know God from more than just the love angle. There is another side to Him. I think He does have a last nerve and His kids may irritate it the most.

So is this a message about attending the life or cell group of Jesus? Yes and well no but yes. You see you cannot see, and well you hear but are tone deaf to his voice, that is unless you are BORN AGAIN. I wonder how many young people have never even heard this saying, “born again?” I think the older generation that may have grown up in the church may grow to believe that everyone knows what this means. However, the past generation did not do as good of a job as the previous one as church became secondary to the American way of life. The women entered into the workplace and although unintentional or born out of necessity, they had others raising their children. And if both work then both come home tired and ill equipped to bible on through the rest of the evening. 

No this in not a chat about women in the workplace – just one man’s perspective as to how we leaned away from teaching our kids about God and the things of God, and fortunately for me time has proven me right, a position I could care less about.   

You know what they say, if you want it get it! Listen up!

Welcome to the truth about death. It is not the end of life per say as D-Com defines it. Yes but no. you see death can concurrently be titled the finish line of this life, and the starting line of our new life. Now I must say that this new definition only applies to the authentically born again believer. Oh but yes it also applies to those who are voluntarily not saved, but after the end of this life, they enter into a new space, and I fret to call it life, but they will be alive in hell. And so but even now you can change that with a quick listen of my other messages so that this is no longer your destiny. 

I use the term door in this message to describe a crossing over if you will. Earth life exists on one side of the door and heavenly life on the other. Yes at some point the door will no longer exist because the option of choice will be extinct. Find out in your listening if death is not now killing your assigned purpose in God while you are still living on the earth side of the door.

Do rocks cry out during a rock concert? Depending on when you ask that question of somebody it is possible that they would say yes. And little would they know that it is very possible that they actually would. it just depends on who is in the room with you.

Who let the dogs out, who let the dogs out. So you might think after listening to some of these messages that I am thinking that I am smarter or more Christian than the listener. But this is not how it works. You see, when a healing man or women of God enters a town like a gun slinger, to bring the gift of God to those who would have it, then the Dr’s are going to accuse him or her of practicing medicine without a license because they cannot do what they can do. Their fear and now exposed insecurity causes them to act like little children. They have no empathy for the sick. They are just mad that their success rate pales in comparison to the Son of God. You must ask was it ever about the patient or money? And why aren’t they emptying out the hospitals and bringing every patient to the healing revival if it actually is about the healing of the patient? I mean if healing is the objective of both the Dr and of man why the conflict?    

There is conflict because we are not lined up with Gods will as a human race. I love it when some things are just so black and white. 

So I teach because it is a gift that God gave me for you. Yes, it’s in the message. He gave men as gifts to one another for one another. It is impossible that you are a born again believer and giftless at the same time. You either didn’t know, or you are lazy or ignorant of the promises of God. No way anyway howeverway that you are giftless. I have other messages that teach you how to discover your talents and gifts therefore you should give an ear to them because I did them and now am operating in some of them in this ministry. 

Oh but this message is about your humanity getting in the way of your spiritual growth. Enjoy.

So this may sound contradictory in that we know that God desires that all men be saved as it states in 1 Timmy 2:4 “who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.” So if this is the case, how then is it possible that at the same time He would be thinning the herd. Well my “Seedy Seedlings” message explains that and so no need to go into it here other than to say He does and is, and even will be. See what Matthew states in 25:32-33 – 32) All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. 33) And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left. 

So no doubt you feel better about the title and cannot wait to see what this 8-episode series is all about. Neither can I so while you’re giving this an ear, I will be working on the other 7-messages as I don’t want to keep you waiting.

So there is so much discussion as to whether the Holy Spirit exists, is God, is for today's believers, etc. and there is a lot of etc's. But so I just try and stay in my lane of knowledge which I feel I do a pretty good job of. Partially because I am now careful who I allow into my spiritual space. Oh you don’t have to worry, once you get born again and begin attending a church address, which you should do, you will meet a lot of space-cases trying to teach you what little they know. It’s babies training babies to become none other than, you guessed it, babies. What did you just say Kenneth? Yup if we are not making disciples that remain, not equipping the saints for the work of ministry, nope not developing our ministry, be it something in the church or outside of it, then it is impossible for us to train up another in the way they should go. Spiritual babies cannot reproduce teenagers. You just cannot teach what you yourself do not know, won’t know, or don’t apply that knowing so that you truly know. If you cannot be a disciple then surely you cannot reproduce one. Who do you think God is?   

Ok so but now this message will help you to see that the Holy Spirit is necessary for you to be, and without Him you would be a not to be. That’s not a question. Enjoy and grow and then go and make some disciples.

So there is so much discussion as to whether the Holy Spirit exists, is God, is for today's believers, etc. and there is a lot of etc's. But so I just try and stay in my lane of knowledge which I feel I do a pretty good job of. Partially because I am now careful who I allow into my spiritual space. Oh you don’t have to worry, once you get born again and begin attending a church address, which you should do, you will meet a lot of space-cases trying to teach you what little they know. It’s babies training babies to become none other than, you guessed it, babies. What did you just say Kenneth? Yup if we are not making disciples that remain, not equipping the saints for the work of ministry, nope not developing our ministry, be it something in the church or outside of it, then it is impossible for us to train up another in the way they should go.

Well no it’s not a story about the SS Mino. Nor totally just about the Ark. It’s more about what floats you boat. The ride of life is not going to be like a cruse down the river in an oversized inner tube whereby you can softly ricochet off ever little obstacle that comes your way. Life really is more like the journey of the Ark from it’s mocking construction to it’s journey all the way up and though the earth filling up with water. The saying what floats your boat is usually quickly addressed logically as water, but when you are a massive wooden cargo ship without shock absorbers and heavy duty sway bars, the ride is anything but lofty. Come see what God has to say in this story least you remain or become an Arksider.

Gakity, gak, don’t talk back. What? Yes for you youngin’s it’s a play on an old song. But so what because it is really a serious thing to consider this one thing which is that the God of love could despise you, your works and your walk with Him so much that He would prefer to vomit you out of His mouth rather than allow you to live with Him just one minute in Heaven. Now this begs the question or the underly pondered thought that Jesus would warn us in advance of this day and yet many are, even right now, preparing to become His projectile – from judgement to hell. Is it so difficult to believe that no not one will be surprised that this is the result of their invisy walk with God? I believe once we check out of our flesh hotel, we will know what side of the road we stand on. No one, not one person will argue with God on His decision of final judgement. 

The only real surprise for us will be just how awesome heaven really is and just how awful hell really is. And even with those things coming to light we may not at all be surprised once we are stripped of our old bedsheets.

I know, like I don't have to tell you that this is not a message about Tina Turner do I? But really if she knew about this message, she may want to rewrite her song the way it is currently written. Love has everything to do with anything that has to do with God. No love, not His. No love, not going to the spirit in the sky. No love, no idea what the Kingdom of god is like. 

There is a lot I do not know about the love of God. So much so that I probably shouldn’t have agreed with God to write this message. But if I don’t who will? No I really mean who will. Moses wasn’t let of the hook when god called him out of the desert land of I thought I was going to retire here, to a land that was all but too willing to take him out at the first glance of his shepardly mug. 

So but now I know that you want to listen to me babble on about one of thee most missed attributes of God today as not seen by many regardless of whether they believe in God or not. Love appears to have been replaced by unchecked emotions. Yup, don’t you believe it for a minute; love is not an emotion, but an act of service appropriate to the type of love that is in play. When done properly it can stir your emotions, but never allow your emotions to define what love is. No doubt we have all missed the boat with this one. Turn up the decibels and learn.

So how many sing songs do we sing about time? Futile if I might say even if I do like the Rolling Stones or Scorpions renditions of a thing that has a short term memory. Yes time has a memory and it is short term. And what I mean is, that it will be with us for a minute more, then Eternity will be upon us in mad fashion.

Perhaps a better title for this message would be, “you’re running out of time.” Well now regardless of the title we all know we are running out of time which is why many of us give our wretched lives over to Jesus in the first place. We are subconsciously aware that time is important and is here for a reason. There is a purpose for time and it is greater that to just show you that you are 5-minutes late to work. 

It’s time to listen in on this message and see what you hear.

This is a short message for those seeking acknowledgement for their ministry works. Now if you have not yet learned that everyone is called into ministry once they become authentically born again then this may not be for them or you. But no fretters as I have other messages that will delight your senses.

I will admit unless you unlearn some things it is difficult to work with others who are working in their strengths and excelling exceedingly when you are not. If however everyone is working in their strengths, I know just imagine if it could ever be possible, then there would be a unified harmony in which rewards would not exist nor would there be a need for them at all. 

Rewards only exist to separate out those who have found their strengths, developed them and are using them.  I know, not entirely Ken, don't forget we have sin on this earth and some will cheat their way to success at all costs...just to get what they perceive as a trophy. Be blessed.

Two, two, two mints in one…ha I know some of you remember that commercial. No but hey this message came to me while I was working on another message, and but because I could feel the urgency to write it out I suspended work on the other message so that I could get this one in ink. This is a blending of several other messages with a different emphasis. I think in part that God is trying to prepare us for what is to come. We are not ready as a church to confront our business. 2020 showed us that we are not ready. COVID showed us that we cannot read the signs. The election showed us that we cannot read transitions. Once the President who came bearing burdens and possibly the judgement of God was in place we still could not see that things are off and required a response. From who? Us who call ourselves authentically born again believing Holy Spirit filled Christians who claim that we would die to ourselves daily and live as Christ, in Christ, for the soul purposes of Christ. 

But so as in all things God, He has an immeasurable depth of Grace and Mercy and oh does He know how to extend it out to even the most ignorant Christian who waits for nothing more than the Heaven-bound train to take him away. Peeps keep in mind that I am a no body and nothing in this world. You don’t even know who I am, and so this makes me a prime candidate to share my thoughts on God and on teaching whoever is willing to learn, hear, and apply these messages. Once the stuff really hits the fan it will be too late to prepare. We see this in the 10 virgins whereby half were ill prepared to see Jesus face-to-face. 

Ya wanna be a prepper who can complete his purpose on earth in what we will one day recognize as the war of all wars? Hiding away is not prepping, it is ignorant of the type of war we are really fighting. Let’s gather our gear shall we?

This is not a Wheaties's box message. I't by all means is intended to help you see that you are running out of racetrack. We can all believe as we did when we were kids that life will go on forever and ever, but this is just not the case. Shoot I am 60-yrs old and yet I still feel like a kid inside. Can you imagine how it will feel to have lived in eternity for 60-yrs? No cuz it wont matter anymore. I am 60-yrs closer to heaven than those who will be born today, not to pick on the unborn but hey I have served most of my time and so I take some liberty.

Perhaps I am just ramblin' on because I do not want to give any of this message away. so I will stop ramblin' and let you get to it.

Is it a movie, is it a song, no but better, is it some strange thing from the the timeless space between my brain cells. I share in the message that sometimes I just get rhymie. In this case it was triggered by my hearing the howl of the homeless. Wow a message from that one moment in time. Take a listen and see what God can do with a nothing nobody. Perhaps you will want to get in the same line.

This message touches at the heart of Applied Strengths Ministry (ASM) and is, I believe, todays answer for the world via the church. The authentically born-again, bride of Christ, filled and overflowing with the Holy Spirit, running first and foremost to serve the Kingdom of God in power that will shake this planet to repentance and usher in a harvest not yet seen by the eyes of this world church. You know every corner on this planet must have one of these right? Nope. Walgreens and fast food restaurants have the corners for now. And why not, doesn’t the world rush in wherever the church leaves presence voids? Yup.   

So how high does my horse have to be for me to declare that ASM is the “answer?” I mean who would say such a thing but an arrogant fool. Well I’m no fool but for Christ, and I have read the stories in the Bible and believe even the Index to be flawlessly true, so given that God seems to respond to an aching heart for Him and for relationship with Him, it is quite possible that what I have stated is true. Now it won’t be because I have the tools to bring it about, nope, it will be because there is power in the kingdom of God. Now I am not talking about magic, nope…I know I have got to stop saying nope and yup, but side track me not, I must remain focused so as to finish typing this out. 

Can we go on a non-drug induced trip? Ok so let’s go. Imagine being in heaven right now seeing the earth and all that is going on about it. No sin, selfishness, flesh to impede your vision or sight, just pure looksee loo. And in that moment you get a revelation of the distinction or difference between the power that resides on earth and the power that resides right where you are sitting. And what if God asked you for your opinion on how you might plan on setting up a ministry that would be effective for your generation. Now don’t forget you are right then aware of the difference in power, the spiritual tools available to you, Gods provisional and logistical assistance, the horde of angles and fiery chariots and horses at your disposal, and because you can see unobstructed in that moment, you can see the lost and wondering sheep.  

Well so you see in that brief moment you could have quite the strategy for success right? But wait a minute. Something was missing in Heaven that only existed on the earth. Faith, oh but you know it that faith to believe and to call those things that don’t exist as though they do. Now my advantage just shifted didn’t it? I can see and believe it from Gods perspective right here on earth.

There is a movie, and I’ll wrap up this intro with this, called 300. Now that is one of the coolest battling against the hordes of creeping things and people who are bent on unjust murder movies out there. I know Lord of The Rings has lots of creepness in it also, but no this 300 movie as cool as it is, pails in comparison to what I want this ministry to do to the kingdom of darkness that is currently swaying the whole of this planet as I sit and type this out. With revival and deliverance, and salvations comes warfare almost equal in proportion. I am ready because I am not ready. The Bible says when sin abounds then grace abounds more. Grace is a fiery weapon infused with the love of God and when exercised properly can shake the planet straight up for God. Listen, and plant a seed, and help me build this ministry. We are limitless and have yet to see what our great and mighty God can do and to what lengths He will go for the lost souls of His clan.

There is a movie, and I’ll wrap up this intro with this, called 300. Now that is one of the coolest battling against the hordes of creeping things and people who are bent on unjust murder movies out there. I know Lord of The Rings has lots of creepness in it also, but no this 300 movie as cool as it is, pails in comparison to what I want this ministry to do to the kingdom of darkness that is currently swaying the whole of this planet as I sit and type this out. With revival and deliverance, and salvations comes warfare almost equal in proportion. I am ready because I am not ready. The Bible says when sin abounds then grace abounds more. Grace is a fiery weapon infused with the love of God and when exercised properly can shake the planet straight up for God. Listen, and plant a seed, and help me build this ministry. We are limitless and have yet to see what our great and mighty God can do and to what lengths He will go for the lost souls of His clan.

Well now hear I go making more friends...lol

 No but it may not be about what you think. For sure it is not about judging you for your past sins and mistakes. If I started on my plate of sins I would not live long enough to get to yours so your meal is safe from me. :) 

 Then but so then what is this all about Kenneth Leroy Shelton, oh I just heard my mom's voice. It is about the spiritual implications when we get a divorce. It is about how our natural marriages are equipping us for a spiritual and eternal one. It is about how we give birth to some small part of eternity through childbearing. 

You want to take a listen if you are in a marriage, especially if you are in a Godly marriage and you are both running crazy for Him.

I can Bayer- ly contain myself as to how much, we as the church, need to hear this message without offense. My motivation is to find what wrong, ask why it went wrong so as not to repeat history, and then move to implement a well thought-out and strategic change that has a proven history of working, meaning that the change that is being implemented is netting the results intended, or in this case commanded.

We must know ourselves by now which is the main failure in a system is humanity. I mean think about it, we have the god-fearing working right next to the God doesn’t exist-ers or doesn’t care-ers. Is it any wonder how we get anything done with the existing toxicity of “influence”, yes influence, it is the game changer. What we are influenced by determines the strength of our original core values. If you are a core-value back-slider look for what has or is influencing you to compromise those values. 

Let’s soldier on and be influenced by God and His purpose.

Yeah baby we are truly in it to win it. Now...do you have any idea as to what I am talking about? Nope, because I am known to mislead to to the truth. See I just did it. :) 

 This should be named, "How Committed Are You To The Things Of God?" but that would have been to direct and it lacks the boom ba to peak your interest. So enough about the title. 

 So how committed are you to the things of God? Well, if you didn't know it matters, and matters a whole lot, way more than you might initially have thought, then you should take a listen. Being a Christian is like a real thing that so few, even Christians, are unaware of. 

 Be aware, don't get caught off guard and you won't fall asleep in the Garden.

You’re not the boss of me. I know, right, remember? How many wars have been started over this one belief or value? It's embedded in out very core. What do they say, “rotten to the bone.” Yes we are and so we remain from birth until now. No one is going to tell me what to do we shout. When someone exercises their authority it's like a flame to gasoline. Authority is a trigger to our innate rebellion. 

 It will be this very thing that ushers the end. But, and you knew I was going to say it, this is not what this message is about. 

 This is more about who is leading you “pre-salvation” and “post salvation.”  I think. :)

Is it possible that Hell will be burned up? Or maybe just burning for eternity? Does being thrown in the lake of fire end everything including the existence of whatever is tossed in it? Does this mean hell has a duration of time assigned to it? 

No doubt when you woke up this beautiful morning that these questions came rushing to you in the night rest and couldn't wait to populate your brain with the though of hell.

No but these are great questions for a believing and enquiring mind to have some answers to. Find out as you listen to this two part series.

Of course it's a pay on words...that is unless Martin Luther also read the Bible. Listen on and see what it takes to get free from the bondage that you tell no one about, as you go home every night wondering what this life is for. Yes see what real freedom is and how you can get yours.

Well if you’re going to be defined as an "oholic" then by all means pick one that speaks to purpose and destiny. I have been other oholics but have found that this is the best one to be. 

 This comes from the mantra, "In service of others." not sure who coined it but no doubt they didn't expect that it would...change and many people as it did...I know I did it again. But let me alone it's my two cents. Oh there is no hope here.

 Helping others to be the best version of themselves is something worth living and dying for. You see if you placed 100 people in a room and gave those who were living life striving to be the best version of themselves an green t-shirt, and you gave the one who were simply living life in a 100% reactive mode, only 10 or 12 people would be wearing a green shirt. Some ask the question what happened to America, and to that I would say that we lost direction and purpose when we walked away from God. Get God, get purpose, and live!

What did you just do Ken? Yes I interrupted the series titled, "DISCIPLESHIP – Equipping The Saints For The Work Of Ministry." I will finish the other five later. 

So but when God interrupts you to do a message on drawing near to Him, well you do it, because that's really what this whole ministry is about. And any and all of my ministry success will be found in Him and in obeying what He asks. And isn't it such a joy to know that God is chatting with you and asking you to send out a message for Him specific to a specific issue that is on His heart today this very morning?  

What is it to grasp that God is intimately involved with our very lives and He knows what we need when we need it. Perhaps He is going after that one lost sheep, or maybe he is just wanting to come inside as he may be tired of standing at the door. After all winter is on its way. 

But regardless of His reason, it is the right reason and it is born out of His love for you and me. This is a message that will allow you some time to just think about you and God. Let everything else that is on your mind just fade away. Don't worry it may still be there when you are done. Consider this an opportunity, as it may well be for many of you, the first time you were asked just to muse and meditate on Him. Be blessed both you and God.

So of course we know that dirt is alive because it produces all kinds of manner of vegitative fruitfulness. Isn't this why Jesus gave them and us the story about the condition of soil? It's a story right out of the Garden of Eden in which He placed Adam, red dirt, to tend to the soil in the garden so that it too would be fruitful and multiply. Isn't it like God to give us so many parallels from just one product which in this case it is dirt? 

 The seed reacts to the quality of the soil and produces henceforth. Not sure if that word fits but I like it so there it is. The Word of God is the seed that is sown into you, a person made from soil. Now but the quality of that soil is dependent on the quality of your relationship with God. If it is all living then it will over power the seed and dormatise it or kill it. If however, the soil consists of the living Word, water, and some dead stuff, namely you, then the harvest can stretch to 100 fold. See for yourself.

Ah yes and Gen X 'ers says I know where he got this saying. He has to have brothers and sisters because no doubt he remembers his mother belting this out when ever there was a habble scrabble among the kids in the back seat of the hot smokey car. You see I had to justify our behavior. We had big cars when growing up including a red Catalina station wagon. but oh was it hot in the summer. She tried to take my finger and she did take my front teeth.

 But no the message is about those of us who think this is possible while also growing into the image of Christ. Paul's head was handed to him even though he said to get along with all men if it were possible. Now we know what he meant oh ye that wants to battle satan through humanity as if the satanic peeps knew what was happening to them. No, we do everything to get along, but know that as you look more like Christ trouble will hunt you down to test you at every turn. We got this right? Yuppy we do.

Isn't salvation a matter of black, grey, or white? Ah you got me...you already know what I am doing. I am going to have to find new tricks. Salvation is not a matter of colors but of your position in and to God. It's not actually about sin. No wait don't hang up just yet. Hear me out. Jesus paid for all of sin, not just yours or mine or others but the price was paid for all of sin. Even for those still willfully still living in it. 

So if you say I am going to take a shower, you first must get by that dollar tree shower that as you walk past it, it magintizes itself to you and hugs you like a bear. The shower represents your relationship with God in all of its glory. The shower curtain represents sin. When you are in the shower the curtain did not go away but in fact actually serves a beneficial purpose. Sin can and does do the same thing. 

Too big to break this down but then again a steak is not eaten in one bite. A-1 please!

By the title you can tell I am speaking us'ins. To those who are or think that they have salvation all wrapped up. if you consider that only 50% of the virgins had it right, then you may be compelled to take a looksee. Jesus stated that narrow is the path that leads to life and there are few who find it. 

Yes to Jesus is the beginning not the end.  

Saying you are a Christian without any evidence that you are is worthy of a second listen. All of my messages are good but this one is good and important...and shareable and wearable. Ok so stop you know me I like word rhymes, that's the only reason I said wearable. 

if you find that this is helpful don't forget to share or lead people to the podcast. Lets build this ministry together, and besides you get credit if they get saved...oh but you know I am just kidding...we will split it 50 - 50.

Knowledge alone will not make you successful. Universities can only give to an exceedingly massive knowledge dump leaving you to pick through what you can use at your next job assuming of course that you got a job in your field of study. How's that for a start or welcome to my podcast message, message greeting? University cannot impart wisdom, cannot teach you wisdom, nor how to work hard, to be committed to your vocation, it cannot teach you character or how to perform with integrity. Seems to me that you get the very short end of the stick when purchasing a degree product at a university. 

Why is this? because we took God out of the knowledge equation, that why. All of the most important stuff is left out of your education. Isn't this a kin to purchasing a new car only to find out it doesn't come with an engine?  I will let you decide. Perhaps if you have a degree it will help you to see the irony, but then irony isn't taught either. LOL

No but so know that this message will set you free from the dream that you can sing and compete on American Idol. Now if you can sing then you will be the lease offended at my polite rant against a broken and mostly ineffective system. But if I just crushed your bad singing career then there is hope. Still don't know what I am talking about? Great take a listen and be transformed by the renewing of your mind.

Dada, dada, dada, dada...ok so its difficult to reproduce the Jaws approaching tune, but you get the idea. So why a Hammerhead Shark? It's a strong message that clunks the head of peeps that feel they got to share stuff out of context or just out of ignorance. We can call them Jesus Police or something like that. Do we need to be careful what we put out there on the airwaves when sharing the Bible stuff? Yes, but when you, the somebody few know, come out and start telling everyone that this or that doesn't exist in the Bible and it is not clearer that the spring air blowing over mount Everest, then shush. God doesn't bred confusion or intentionally poke someone in the eye for something so vague. 

Ok so i feel better and this message is not entirely about that. Enjoy and forgive me if that person was you. LOL

"We are here to pump you up"...ha a great line from an old episode of Saturday Night Live. 

 But no this is not a pump you up message but more of a deflation message whereby some of your thinking about intimacy and sex may need to change if improvement is expected in that area of your relationship. If there is but one thing that is as true as God is alive, it is in this one fact that your sex life, if not an intentional focus of your marriage, will not get better with time. 

 This message is for married couples that want to hear what you may not hear in your local church. I go there because someone should. The devil has no problem catting sex up like it is some cheap thrill ride to be experienced by anyone who is ignorant of its intended purpose. 

 Imagine if Christians actually had a sex group that they could go to work on this are of their marriage. How many marriages come a part due to neglect or ignorance in this area? Doesn't matter? Ask God if it matters to Him?

 I think it does and so I would encourage you to listen to all 14-episodes and be helped and equipped for a better relationship.

 But no this is not a pump you up message but more of a deflation message whereby some of your thinking about intimacy and sex may need to change if improvement is expected in that area of your relationship. If there is but one thing that is as true as God is alive, it is in this one fact that your sex life, if not an intentional focus of your marriage, will not get better with time. 

 This message is for married couples that want to hear what you may not hear in your local church. I go there because someone should. The devil has no problem catting sex up like it is some cheap thrill ride to be experienced by anyone who is ignorant of its intended purpose. 

 Imagine if Christians actually had a sex group that they could go to work on this are of their marriage. How many marriages come a part due to neglect or ignorance in this area? Doesn't matter? Ask God if it matters to Him?

 I think it does and so I would encourage you to listen to all 14-episodes and be helped and equipped for a better relationship.

Yes of course all supernatural power that exists comes from God. But we know that we are given supernatural power to do the work of God, and all I am saying is that so is satan.  It is important for us to know what power is being used in that moment, and who is using it being god or the devil. No not like real them, but who is God or satan using to display their power on earth. I thought that this message may be helpful to the believer that is not aware that the battle is fought in supernatural realms, using supernatural power or same, same, supernatural weapons. If you do not have the Holy Spirit, then you are walking around the battle theatre with weapons but no ammo. Hummm....good luck? I don't even know what to say of that thinking given it is written in the Bible that we would be given weapons which are mighty for pulling down strongholds.  Lock in load you are in war Christian soldier!

It happened on purpose, so that, although it didn't look like God initially, it was Him from the beginning through to the end. Most are unaware that Jesus and satan had a discussion about one of His Apostles, whereby which when Peter had opened the door of access through sinning, Jesus simply gave satan permission to do his dirty work until such time that Jesus knew humility had now occupied what was once occupied by pride.  Yup, act like you are all that and more than you might know will come a knockin' on your door. He is a subcontractor of Gods to test and to correct. See what up!

Its a play on words...you know me by now! No but actually we are, in God's eyes, more beautiful than the most beautiful diamond on earth. In fact there is nothing, not even all of what God has created, that is more beautiful than us. We are the apple of His eyes, and His thoughts are on us daily more than the sands of the sea. So how can we not love ourselves? Or do what He has called us to do? Or why do we respond by hardening our hearts, face, and stiffening our necks against Him and towards one another? Why would the diamond reduce herself to a pearl, or ruby? Or even worse back to her original state of a piece of coal?  Give a look-see or rather hear-see.

So now and again I like to post something that is fascinating factual. Why? Because sometimes these lil factoids can help to dispel arguments against the fact that God exists. Especially when you can tie the Biblical event to oh let’s say…science! It is a strange world we live in when people try to separate god from science to support the idea that God doesn’t exist, not thinking that if God doesn’t exist then the science of air and gravity don’t either. 

So are we going to the Moon? Nope just explaining some interesting things that happened to time which may have affected the Moon but perhaps we will never fully know until God shows us His historical reels.

Well here we go again with some scripture surfing under the Son. Have you ever wondered why some people say that there is only one God or that there is One God but three that is the father , Son, and Holy Spirit, or that there is just One God but no Jesus, or that Jesus is not a God. 

 So to address the Jesus thing; the devil is a liar and doesn't want anyone to believe that Jesus is the Son of God, but it is true that Jesus is the Son of God and our only option for salvation. if you want the job or want to attribute the responsibility to someone else then they need to just be sin free and have died and now live and sit on the right hand of the Father, that's it. 

 You could probably find someone on a hiring agency website. But no really the Jesus status is out of the question. He is real, lived among us, died for our sins, and got up out of the grave and ascended to the Father. No tampering allowed. 

 But what about the Trinity theory? From where did it come from? It's not in the Bible, but I believe that plenty happens that is not in the bible but fits within the context of the Bible. Give an eight series listen and perhaps we can lay this one to rest.

No father, no mother, no genealogy? How is this so? Well does satan have any of these? Nope, so then there you go; no but he is not of the line of satan. I felt that I needed to say that just in case you thought...oh well never mind. 

In this series you will find out the mystery of who this man, person, creature being is. And more than that you will find out some other excerpted sections from other messages that hem this message in so to speak.  Now of course because those hemmite's are important I did separate more comprehensive messages on them, and you will know once we get into the message what I am talking about. But for now let's talk about what so few Pastor peeps talk about. You know I get their limitations in speaking about such matters in that we, that is the church, seem so busy keeping babies, babies that it is hard to find the meat eating crowd.  T-Bone anyone!

Is this where I get serious? Message 98? Nope, I try not to take anything serious, as i do what I am called to do sober-mindedly. Laughter is good medicine and i am funny, not not at the, "I-should-be-getting'-paid" funny. 

But this is an interesting perspective on God. It is because what I hear so much about God would confirm to the spiritually ignorant that every person born will be in heaven because God is Love.  But it is here that we must also recognise that He is also just. You see Christianity is not a game; not a religion, otherwise Jesus on the cross would be nothing more than a joke. I am for sure confident that God is not playing some masterful joke on humanity.  Based on what I have done myself, and have seen, read, and heard of what others have done, this stuff is anything but a joke. Let's look at a side of God that's difficult to understand but must be looked into least both ends don't meat!

I'm a cowboy, and on a steel horse I ride...could you see Jesus singing this while walkin' in da desert? Probably not but surely he wasn't an outlaw just because He did things that give us the appearance that He was actually breaking the law....or was He? And would He be walking in the desert if He had a steel horse?

It is these types of messages that I love because God is in the business of destroying our first impressions. This is that, that is a first impression that we have to unravel to get the correct perspective on what it was or is that Jesus did and is doing even unto this very moment.

so I suspect I might know what a Pastor feels like when he is about to bring a message that is surely to stir things up a bit. And of course that is because we are stirupable people, especially in these days where God has placed an unexpected demand on His Church and Bride to see if she is up to the task. Well we know she is not there yet and for sure His grace will get us there, but only as long as we do not ignore how we ended up in this place and why it happened. 

But this message is not that! I love doing that...

This is about what has been going on well before the beginning of time and continues to and through to today and will eventually culminate to its intended end when Jesus shouts "That's a wrap."  Why I said earlier that I know how that Pastor feels is so that when I tell you but nevertheless I will but share the things I think that God is wanting to share, that you understand that although I might feel that way, I should move forward in His will at any cost including the off chance that I could be wrong. Yes i could be wrong or off in any message. That is the risk we take as humans when serving God. My thought is that it is better to serve and make mistakes along the way than to have never served and thus avoiding making any messaging mistakes. But if I may be a friend for a moment, that or rather it would be a greater mistake to avoid serving God in the fear that you may miss it. Enjoy this series.

This is about what has been going on well before the beginning of time and continues to and through to today and will eventually culminate to its intended end when Jesus shouts "That's a wrap."  Why I said earlier that I know how that Pastor feels is so that when I tell you but nevertheless I will but share the things I think that God is wanting to share, that you understand that although I might feel that way, I should move forward in His will at any cost including the off chance that I could be wrong. Yes i could be wrong or off in any message. That is the risk we take as humans when serving God. My thought is that it is better to serve and make mistakes along the way than to have never served and thus avoiding making any messaging mistakes. But if I may be a friend for a moment, that or rather it would be a greater mistake to avoid serving God in the fear that you may miss it. Enjoy this series.

so I suspect I might know what a Pastor feels like when he is about to bring a message that is surely to stir things up a bit. And of course that is because we are stirupable people, especially in these days where God has placed an unexpected demand on His Church and Bride to see if she is up to the task. Well we know she is not there yet and for sure His grace will get us there, but only as long as we do not ignore how we ended up in this place and why it happened.

So no i am not talkin' bout grave robbers. I am talking about gossiping or judging the dead ministers of whom you might disagree with. Is there something for the mature to learn in this episode? Yes otherwise God wouldn't have dropped it into my spirit. We are talking about bad habits that if not dealt with can land you at the foot of the throne for a talkin' to. Lets leave each other to God on all small matters pertaining to Him. We will all get it once we find ourselves on the elevator that hopefully only has an up button. Enjoy :)

Rubber ducker rapper boxer. I thought I could make it more complex. 

So this is a journey into the unknown why we take such precautionary measures and over-wrap everything to the extreme degree world. Ok so somethings make sense like gum or life savers. And thank God they don't wrap each sardine in the can one by one.; or olives in a jar could you imagine? Ok so but this is not about wrapping as much as it is about how easy it is to chose Jesus. Take a look, surely you will laugh at least once...lol

Whooshamabobalythingy (new word), this is going to be an awesome journey with you and the Holy Spirit for me and for you. What? Yes it makes sense to me in my mind so let’s roll with it.

Who in their right mind would try to define what the purpose of the church is? Well Jesus did that's who. And He left us a manual in order that we build it according to it's instruction and examples. 300 cubits by 500 cubits...no not that kind of instruction. The kind that places people of systems, structures, and organizations. Now I know none of us were their walking with Jesus and His gruffly peeps that we could see the example, bring it back to 2022 and reproduce it whatever it was or is, but clearly there is enough written in the Bible to get us a lot further down the road than we currently are or is.

Now don't you have an aching down in the very soft gushy marrow of your bones for something more, right after attending your church? I have often left hungrier than when I showed up. And I know some of that is on me, I mean if I was walking in all that and a bag of chips (classic) then the anointing would have poured forth and flooded the whole earth with the delicious presence of God.

So but now this message series encapsulates my entire purpose and ministry. Some of it is just funs facts and beliefs that I have about God while others are designed to locate the issue and come up with a solution. A solution that I feel God is presenting to today's church.

Think you have the humility to enter in? Let me leave you with this one fact which is thoroughly explained throughout the message and that is that the church is not for the unbeliever to attend. Now if you’re tired of a no results church experience watching others do ministry but yet you do not even know what you’re going to be when you grow up, then enter through the narrow gate...and keep this in mind, I think Jesus stated the gate was narrow and even made narrow because of the condition of our minds and the difficulty we find as humans to change or to be challenged on a point we were sure would never be changed.

Whooshamabobalythingy (new word), this is going to be an awesome journey with you and the Holy Spirit for me and for you. What? Yes it makes sense to me in my mind so let’s roll with it.

Who in their right mind would try to define what the purpose of the church is? Well Jesus did that's who. And He left us a manual in order that we build it according to it's instruction and examples. 300 cubits by 500 cubits...no not that kind of instruction. The kind that places people of systems, structures, and organizations. Now I know none of us were their walking with Jesus and His gruffly peeps that we could see the example, bring it back to 2022 and reproduce it whatever it was or is, but clearly there is enough written in the Bible to get us a lot further down the road than we currently are or is.

Now don't you have an aching down in the very soft gushy marrow of your bones for something more, right after attending your church? I have often left hungrier than when I showed up. And I know some of that is on me, I mean if I was walking in all that and a bag of chips (classic) then the anointing would have poured forth and flooded the whole earth with the delicious presence of God.

So but now this message series encapsulates my entire purpose and ministry. Some of it is just funs facts and beliefs that I have about God while others are designed to locate the issue and come up with a solution. A solution that I feel God is presenting to today's church.

Think you have the humility to enter in? Let me leave you with this one fact which is thoroughly explained throughout the message and that is that the church is not for the unbeliever to attend. Now if you’re tired of a no results church experience watching others do ministry but yet you do not even know what you’re going to be when you grow up, then enter through the narrow gate...and keep this in mind, I think Jesus stated the gate was narrow and even made narrow because of the condition of our minds and the difficulty we find as humans to change or to be challenged on a point we were sure would never be changed.

What is with the zombie theme messages Ken? I am not sure maybe its the fact that 10% of movies out there are projecting these things into our little minds. At any rate, I am not trying to play off of those movies, but I saw this as I was reading about communion in the four Gospels. When I saw how John was telling the story I knew we had some hidden revelation about Jesus and what He might have been doing. You know He had groups of people in whom He communicated with differently with each group. Pater, James, and John were one of those groups, the remaining Apostles were another, the 70 yet another, and the crowds another, and Pharisees, teachers, and lawyers still others. 

 You have heard it said if you are in the business world that if you are a public speaker or just doing presentations that you need to know your audience. Jesus operated in this principle before anyone else ever thought about it.

 If you are asking me to give this message away right here, and right now, I must kindly refuse and invite you to discover the revelation that God may have for you in this message.

So who in the jungles of Paradise would title a message "Gorilla Bananas" and expect anyone to get where the story might be going. Well, I would and I do because I am me, and after more than four decades of shying away from me because I was sure I was born faulty, I finally adopted the fact that God had really made me this way and that I should live out the rest of my days in some part convincing others who also didn't fit into the faulty and falsely created mold. I am a pretty funny guy and strangely enough I don't need you to laugh to validate this fact. But know that you are dealing with an authentic guy who simply tired of the labels no one else could proudly wear even though it was they who created them; or their parents or other members of the family. Either way you be you, let them be them, and us be us.

Thanks for the minute...I am back. So this message is about the hard stuff that we often do not focus on being unless you are a religious nut or Jesus Himself who has returned and is hiding among us in the crowds. So now I had to make an assumption here in that you are a bit like me in that these things are for the other guy that I will probably never run into on this planet. Nope, they are not and I assure you, you get no pressure from me to try and be them, to wear them, to embody the entirety of their attributed selves.

But so let's say we try. Let's say we give it a go and see if God in faith can bring this about in our lives. No, now if you happen to be completely converted of all and of everything and you walk 100% in these things, then by all means pray for us and show us continually. Yes we need to know who you are so we can emulate all of these with exceeding ambition. Let's rock!

So who in the jungles of Paradise would title a message "Gorilla Bananas" and expect anyone to get where the story might be going. Well, I would and I do because I am me, and after more than four decades of shying away from me because I was sure I was born faulty, I finally adopted the fact that God had really made me this way and that I should live out the rest of my days in some part convincing others who also didn't fit into the faulty and falsely created mold. I am a pretty funny guy and strangely enough I don't need you to laugh to validate this fact. But know that you are dealing with an authentic guy who simply tired of the labels no one else could proudly wear even though it was they who created them; or their parents or other members of the family. Either way you be you, let them be them, and us be us.

I suppose I could have published this in oh lets say 2050 when I am sure that I wont be around to hear it. You know the backlash from telling other people how to raise their kids. But no I want you to know what everyone is thinking when you allow your wild child to rule over your life and be an absolute disruption to whatever is happening around them. You should know we had it right when Teachers could assist with that correction. Listen you want to improve your chances that you will raise a future inmate? Then avoid following the Bible and what it says you should do to keep them Out "O" Trouble. Yes, you know better than God the unruliness that resides in human beings starting as kidlings that He does? Your child's behavior will prove it once they hit about 6 or 7 years of age. Listen there is a correct way to discipline without going overboard and crossing the line. I would come home to an incident where my wife had the boys in their rooms waiting for me. I would ask what happened, explain why it cannot continue to happen, tell them that there would be a spanking coming, I would then leave the room and pray that I would spank in love and not out of anger. Then i would return and spank and leave the room. I would return later to encourage them and to know that I love them but that we cannot behave that way. I will be honest, I hated discipling my kids but, after I read these scriptures I was motivated to disciplining them in love to show love.

Talk about someone who no longer dwells on this planet...why? Well, because he left us some good advice on how to continue to the work of Jesus, and to do so in the workplace which seems one of the most difficult places for people to be open about their faith in Jesus Christ. 

I believe it is the whole point of this ministry isn't it? It is not enough to sit in a classroom for 4-yrs and then go and try this thing out. Yes...schools are not placing you in the best position to be successful. You learn and burn, that's how you grow. Take whatever you know and see if it works. if it does not learn some more and try again. Look God is either first in your life or He is not. You can trick me all day long, but when your time is up, you will either hear well done my good and faithful servant or away from me you who practice unrighteousness.

But so get this, this is about us not performing as I think Jesus has called us to perform as His Bride, as His Church. I know duh right. As if it weren't' obvious to just about everyone already. 2020 showed our depths in the church and in most cases we couldn't drop below sour milk, eve though many of us should be on meat by now.

No this is not about smoking cigars. This is about almost finishing your race to stay in God, in your salvation, in your calling, this is about you also being around the right people who will help you to do so. You know in the "be all that you can be" circles they use the analogy of crabs in a bucket whereby when one decides to break free from the herd, the others try and go up ahead of it by climbing on its back and pulling on its fragile appendages, but are unsuccessful as the poor little crab is ascending the slippery side of the bucket whispering, "I think I can, I think I can" it is pulled back on top of the very herd it was trying to escape from. 

Sadly it appears that the church has the same bucket. perhaps some have brought their old be all you can be buckets with them, while others may have simply brought a bucket intentionally. And it would be no surprise as we invite the unsaved, unbelieving, and devil himself to church. You see it is impossible not to do so if you are not being equipped for the work of ministry. Now this is the bucket we exchange for the crabby one. And instead of trying to escape the world of crab-herds, we turn our bucket upside down and help the souls out of the old bucket life. If this mission and purpose is not on your right-now bucket list...ok too many buckets...but you know what I mean. Enjoy!

I have over 2000 friends on Facebook and counting. I collect friends in order to influence their future decisions about life which if it excludes God then it is my hope that they somehow hear His voice in my messages, postings, life style, whatever it takes. I only really have about a handful of real friends as well I expect they they too have the same. E-platforms is one way I now teach what I have learned and i hope it saves some from H. E. double toothpicks. 

Oh but this message is about chatting about what happened due to your being born again. You truly become another person, although personality, talents, and giftings remain in tact. Relatable? Not anymore, at least not with any who have not experienced the born again experience. Be encouraged that what really happened is that you were dropped into a new eternal family and now the journey and testing begins as you look for your place within that family.

Oh now for the Boomers tell me that you haven't heard this from your parents on the rare occasion that you accidently caught them in a mistake. ..LOL

This message is about turning the church about face. You should be interested because Jesus is coming after His church, which is His bride, right now His girlfriend. And if you want to be caught up, up, and away then you will be concerned as to the condition of His bride. 

Listen away....

Yes you guessed it, it is a metaphor for chickens. Now this two part message is deep with some of my flavorful humor. I had to delete some of my own laughing as I think it is a rule or something that you cant laugh at your own stuff...a lot.

Hey so this is a story about remaining immature in the Lord. I talk about how you can move from milk to meat and grow from a baby to an adult Christian. It's a goodin'

We all know what one of these is don't we? It is someone who writes a book for another person who will publish the book receiving the credit for the effort. I am not sure if the ghost writer gets anything but cash for their efforts. But having trained you momentarily, I explain what I mean. I am talking about the Holy Ghost writer who gets all the credit for stiching the Bible together as well as any writings done under His inspiration. 2 Tim 3:16. 

If you are a Bible fenatic and enforce the no ready of any thingy else rule then this message may be for you. The good news is that you don't have to read it only listen to it...LOL...JK

I think ist a great listen and comes with a special surprise which is a partial list of my reads. Ok learners run to the trough and meatify this message.

What? No! I choose where I live and serve Him right? I mean it is so hard to find a Church I like. But you know that more important than even finding a Church is finding a safe neighborhood and great schools with quick access to the mall and a gas station. Yup and nope. We have conditions born within us that some call drawing the line. I will go this far and thus no futher. Yes I know I did that on purpose. :) But this is not the Biblical example. Today we place Job, neighborhoods, and schools as our first determining factor as to where we should serve God. Everything but Him right? I mean God wouldn't ask me to move to Compton right? Go to China right?  Matthew states first serve the Kingdom of God...Jesus states I pray that they are where I am at. Undisputable and yet fought so hard against. It's never to late to be where Jesus is at for you and for your ministry. Re-align if necessary and run your race to win. It would be a real shocker if you never landed on the map where God had intended and assigned you to land because you had a line in the sand.

Taint no hillbilly'n message nor am I cowboying up. Nope this is about the realms where God has our stuff in a storage unit located in heaven. Now it stays there until you know how to ask in order to get it relocated to address earth. 

If you lack anything its on you, but not to fear underdog is here and I will have hopefully dropped my decoder ring so that you can figure out how to access God's ministry and life resources for you. PS this is not a faith message, although it will take some of that, but equally important, at least from what I have learned, it also takes belief and requests in belief that He has your back. He is the King of logistics!

I am not sure if i am trying to dispel the myth that if you just wait until your last dying day before surrendering to God that all will work out.  Didn't Peter state that we are scarcely saved (1 Peter 4:18)?  I know some jump on the some who are first will be last and some who are last will be first, but I am not sure this is strictly talking about the last minute salvation waiters of the world. But even if it is, how will you know if you are living your last day? I mean accidents happen and few people that I know of commit their life to the Lord upon impact with another vehicle for example, or when caught in a gun fight at a family event. Anyway my thought is that you should know God from more than just the love angle. There is another side to Him. I think He does have a last nerve and His kids may irritate it the most.

Same, same, different, no but same, same. What? Kens had too much coffee. No just thought I would be redundant. You see anytime you, we, me talk about the condition or health of the Church, those who are usually the problem rise up in rebellion and accusation. The devil don't like to get found out you see and although try as we may he gets in around our very invitation to him.  Come one come all say ye, but not me. Ok so that is really covered in the message titled Church Purpose which is coming out in season 2. It will be the largest series to date possibly exceeding 20 or more episodes. This happens because I now try and keep the messages shorter due to the heavy content. But so back to this message. Unity oh the power in unity and agreement. If she got this today we could send the devil to camp on the moon. She being the Church...that is us, me and you.  Those original fella's got it and turned the world upside down. I think the modern church doesn't like the noise when that happens...LOL

What is a spiritual tongue? Someone who speaks in tongues? Nope. It is a person who speaks to others and to themselves as Jesus was speaking their very words. The mind is a very active place and has led many to miss their off-ramp only to have to turn around to get back on track. I was known as a day-dreamer in school because my mind was more fun to hang around in than the class topics. But in there, that is the mind, we have good wholesome, healthy, Holy, and pure thoughts, and we have the other ones that oh if we could just never speak them into life all would be better off. Negative and biting words kill. They steal futures, dreams, hopes, and destinies. You cannot take them back and the repair time requires a huge investment of time of which few of us have. But as believers we have been given the mind of Christ and I believe it is for this very reason which is that we could filter out those harmful words and kill them before we speak them into life. I have often had the scary thought that perhaps we would be better off if people could see what goes on up there, but then I am grounded in the belief even through my own negatively spoken words that the end of civilization would have come long ago if that were possible. Reading the Word of God puts the right words in your head. Listening to the right music puts the right words in your head. Watching good TV programming or movies puts the right words in your head. It’s up to you to develop your Christ mind. Let’s do it together.

We are as effective these days as fireworks that are never removed from the box in order to be put on display. They were designed to be seen and so are we, but not in and of ourselves, but that He would be seen in and through us.  You did not join a religion, a set of rules, nor even a way of living, but a way of being, of existing, of behaving. Too have issues with one another shuts down the power and display of God and the Gospel. It is my prayer that you get this and begin to restore any infractions that would keep the power of God dormant in your life. Let's be filled, full, and firing on all Christian cylinders.

What is this about Ken? Well as a believer in Christ you have been removed, mindfully that is, from any who are not believers. This doesn't mean you move out of your house or neighborhood if you get saved. It means that you begin to distinguish the differences and behave accordingly.  Most I am sure have never heard a message like this because you would have to have a bit higher of an emotional intelligence (EQ) than a baby Christian. As you listen through this 8-part series seek how God might be asking you to make any adjustments as it relates to your current relationships. This is very important for your growth and for your maturity into being a disciple and for being equipped for the work of ministry. The unsaved can present a huge, and do, distraction to those who don't know how the devil works nor how God works. If you’re offended that I said that...great let’s start there and grow together. It is after all your choice as to which of the 10-virgins you want to be (Matt 25:1-13).

The unsaved can present a huge, and do, distraction to those who don't know how the devil works nor how God works. If you’re offended that I said that...great let’s start there and grow together. It is after all your choice as to which of the 10-virgins you want to be (Matt 25:1-13).

What is this about Ken? Well as a believer in Christ you have been removed, mindfully that is, from any who are not believers. This doesn't mean you move out of your house or neighborhood if you get saved. It means that you begin to distinguish the differences and behave accordingly.  Most I am sure have never heard a message like this because you would have to have a bit higher of an emotional intelligence (EQ) than a baby Christian.

Surprise, surprise not what I am referring too but nonetheless it seemed like a good hook. So this message is based out of Luke and includes an actual chat between someone in hell and a couple of guys in heaven. De-par-tation you know as I was preparing this message I was thinking in that very moment when the hell guy was looking into heaven talking with the fella's that it cannot but be a most miserable place to be, that as you are now locked into your choice for hell over whatever you left behind on the earth, how deep the regret must have felt. It is interesting that the hell guy never asked for a second chance. It was like he knew, though extremely regrettable, that hell was his choice. I personally just cannot imagine living in such a miserable place knowing that second chances no longer exist. Living with the absence of everything God created for the rest of eternity is at this point in my life unimaginable. Ok so but it was just a thought...enjoy the first episode.

Surprise, surprise and yes this time I am referring to it as I wanted to include the same content as I did in the first message because I felt that it is of the Lord that you hear it again.

These a  few testimonies that I have experienced in my walk with God. No, these are not the only ones, I have many others in which I will share as I am led to do so.  What I want to dispel here is the fear of demons and the power you have been given over them. That is the authority in Jesus name that you have been given. It is so very important that you understand that your Christianity is not just about salvation but also about activity. Salvation is the act of signing on the bottom line and saying from now on I am given over to God for His service. I have shared before that love is serving, and called has called you to it. When my son signed up for the Marines he didn't transition from the commitment to the sofa. He was bout to get trained up to fight. We are no different in our faith. We to must be trained up in how to fight. Not eachother or those who are not yet saved or even those who will not be saved, but for our families, other Christians, co-workers and bosses, Governmental officials and kings and queens. Yes you do as you are moved and trained and equipped for. Hopefully these stories will encourage you to press on or to get in the battle.

Well I suspect this woman never took a risk management class, because dang she risked it all to get what nobody else could giver her. Have you ever felt like that?  If I haven't made it clear enough this woman was totally rejected by her culture, other women, men, employers, Dr.'s, SSA, Just kidding. But no for real the debt collectors were the last of her potential human contact if Jesus had not just wondered into her life. Why things have to get so bad before we finally surrender and take the born again risk is beyond me. It's like Jesus was waiting for her to run out of her own resources, thinking and planning. If it is possible for you to get born again prior to bouncing off the bottom of the Ocean 12-times then take that option. Right..OK so pay attention of you have the brain resources to do so...it is good. Thanks and enjoy.

Ok so boy this title could get me in real trouble if it weren't for the fact that it was true but that she also came out of those issues properly. Are you stuck in a mess with no apparent way out? Struggling with decade long issues and problems? Never fear for under dog his here...or rather the One who rescues those who are down and under something but actually know it and are just hungry enough to trust a stranger with an outstanding reputation to set a person free so as to risk it all or what is rather left. I did not schedule this for a future release because it is that helpful and so out it goes to e-land as a great helper to those with the ears to hear and eyes to see. Listen to both parts so that you get the whole story.

So after five you should feel very alive as we are like no other created being. Yes this is what it is to be authentically born again. I mean like who of you could have asked God to be your Father. So Jimmy tell us who your daddy is and what He does for a living...I know right!!! we would have been so cool in school had we known what we know now about our God and Father.

After you listen to four you are going to want more because chewing on the meat of the Word is something we all should covet. But not to worry because after four there is more  so grab yourself some Holy popcorn and listen up as you are now on...well you know.

No doubt you are only here getting ready to listen to this second of seven messages because you are hungry and didn't get offended at the idea that we all need to learn a thing or seven about God. 

I cannot wait to get your feedback on this series as I know you will get it once you process through the seven messages. Remember, list for God speaking in these things and know for sure that none of us sees without hindrances, but there is always something to see with an open mind, heart, and willingness to change. So let's get to sea'ing. Yes also did that one on purpose.

Ok so where are we going with this seven part series Ken? Hah I cannot wait to get your feedback on this series as I know you will get it once you process through the seven messages.

We all live at the bottom of the Sea, the bottom of the Sea,  Gods we be and so few could tell by the way we act in our Christianity. Are we Thor's with no hammer working in the quarries of life making no progress as we try and convince the rocks to break all on their own.  Ok so we are not as powerless as Thor and but yes to the rest of what I said in that sentence. God in working through a stick created the perfect storm of perfect storms and split open an entire sea. And what do you think they found as the waters pulled a part? People like you and me holding a Life Group meeting. Ha so maybe not but surely the ground was dry because God's blessings don't lead to tragedy...at least not for the recipients. grab yourself some Holy popcorn and listen up as you are now on three.

So what !!!! I know right we should have been taught this stuff by spiritual parents who were assigned to equip us for the work of ministry, making us disciples and teaching us how to make disciples. But so no I was being sarcastic because it is for the absence of these instructions from God that this ministry exists. I am not picking on anyone but know for sure if our military train its soldiers lake the church equips its soldiers then good grief can you imagine? 

I can only imagine what "all kinda mess" that would be. Wait it is a mess and I don't have to imagine as I have seen it for 30-yrs.  Ok so don't be a hater, I have just read the Bible enough times and over 600 books on Christianity to know that we are not all that we could be and if you make the comment that we are trying I will have to ask you to stop reading...ok so no don't do that but read the book of Acts and tell me you participate in that type of Church. I won't wait for the text or email as well you know. But this ministry is going to fix it by standing in the equipping gap, in the making disciples gap so that change will be inevitable.  Thanks for inclining your ear to this message.

If you are still with me then prime rib for you in message number 7. But first understand that there is much talk that is silent in these messages. God did not author the Bible so precise that we did not have room for our own personal revelation (see John 20:30-31 & 21:25).

So what I am saying is that you cannot go wrong listening to these more than once. I didn't do that on purpose so if it is an issue you will have to take it up with the Holy Spirit who gave me the ability to type while I sleep.  Hum that really has nothing to do with revelation does it?  OK so...well be changed. Much love.
