SORRY FOREVER

And when HE [JESUS, THE MIGHTY FORTRESS1] had called unto HIM HIS twelve disciples, HE gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal ALL manner of sickness and ALL manner of disease” (Matthew 10:1). In verse 8, JESUS, THE GREAT POWERHOUSE, commanded them to go forth and “Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely you have received, freely give.” HE also stated, “Behold, I give unto you POWER to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over ALL the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you” (Luke 10:19).
These commands and promises were not just for that generation, but they are for us and all who are called to be followers of JESUS unto the end of this age. This supernatural authority, explosive power, has been transferred to the holy people of GOD who do not compromise with sin, but walk in holiness and constant communion with CHRIST.
We must “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the FATHER is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the FATHER, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of GOD abideth for ever” (1 John 2:15-17).
In today’s world, GOD has a big shaking going on. Those of us who cannot be shaken away from CHRIST shall be saved.2 Others who love this present, temporal life so much that they refuse to make a stand for CHRIST and preserve their own eternal lives shall be sorry forever while they are tormented for eternity in the Lake of Fire.3
Now, the LORD is allowing us to be tried, just as GOD allowed the devil to tempt JESUS, Job, and all Christians. Job never fell away from GOD. All of Job’s children and worldly possessions were taken from him to see if he would curse GOD to HIS face, but he never did.4 As our example to follow, JESUS never wavered, but was faithful to HIS death on the cross.5
All the possessions which GOD gave to our congregation were taken by the devil’s government. Some people fell away, but some of us stayed. The devil’s government, which secretly gets its directions from Rome, devised yet another war against GOD and true Christianity (our church and many others worldwide) to try to destroy CHRIST’S church, the true body of CHRIST (Revelation chapters 13, 17).
The one-world government beast, powered by the spirit of the devil, used weak, fallen-away former Christians as tools to sue our people for their property. We spanked a couple of seventeen-year-old young men for their evil actions in the church, so they sued the person who spanked them and me. The devil’s Roman Catholic judge awarded those two men thirty-three million dollars each! Most courts condone the murders of millions of babies and defend everything GOD says is sin.
They sold property that doesn’t belong to me, but to people who attend my church. However, this is only real estate. When JESUS sent HIS twelve disciples into the mission field, HE told them, “Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses, Nor scrip [money] for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat. And into whatsoever city or town you shall enter, enquire who in it is worthy [who is Godly]; and there abide till you go thence” (Matthew 10:9-11).
It may very well get to this point again. JESUS told us how to react in this circumstance. We may not be able to have a church building. That is why HE said, “For where two or three are gathered together in MY NAME, there am I in the midst of them” (Matthew 18:20). The first century church consisted of house churches that Paul often mentioned in his writings.6 Those who deny themselves, pick up their crosses daily, and follow JESUS in word and deed, ARE THE CHURCH!7
We are not to lay up treasure for ourselves in this world, which is our temporary home. “Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust does corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven, where neither moth nor rust does corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also” (Matthew 6:19-21).
“And when you come into a house, salute it. And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it [if they want to hear about JESUS, the PRINCE of PEACE]: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you [don’t let this discourage you, but continue on in the PRINCE of PEACE, which again is JESUS, and HE is MIGHTY, ALMIGHTY GOD, who gave you these marching orders]. And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words [will not listen to what you tell them about the WORD of GOD, JESUS8], when you depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, than for that city.
“Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the [secular] councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues [and churches]; And you will be brought before governors and kings for MY sake, for a testimony against them and [the other unbelievers] the Gentiles. But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what you will speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what you shall speak. For it is not you that speak, but the SPIRIT of your FATHER which speaks in you.
“And the brother [former Christian who has fallen away from the LORD] shall deliver up the [true Christian] brother [who didn’t fall away] to death, and the [unconverted] father the [Christian] child: and the [drugged-up, anti-Christian] children shall rise up against their [Christian] parents, and cause them [with their lies] to be put to death. And you shall be hated of all men for MY name’s sake [we are hated because of the demonic worldwide government and the demonic influence of their media, powered by the spirit of that great red dragon, the devil (Revelation 12:9)]: but he that endures to the end shall be saved” (Matthew 10:12-22).
Second Timothy 2:3 says, “Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of JESUS CHRIST.” “The disciple is not above his MASTER, nor the servant above his LORD. It is enough for the disciple that he be as his MASTER, and the servant as his LORD. If they [the media, world government, and their devilish churches] have called the MASTER of the house [of GOD] Beelzebub [the devil and Satan], how much more shall they call them of HIS household [we, the body of CHRIST]?” (Matthew 10:24-25).
The works of the devil and his people are done secretly in darkness. They attempt to hide all their evil works. So, “Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known [on the Day of Judgment]. What I tell you in darkness [in your hour of darkness, persecution, and slander], that speak in light: and what you hear in the ear, that preach upon the housetops. And fear not them that kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear HIM which is able to destroy both soul and body in Hell” (Matthew 10:26-28).
Don’t worry (Matthew 6:25-34). GOD is aware of everything, even when one sparrow dies. “But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows” (Matthew 10:30-31).
“And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world [JESUS is the light], and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in GOD” (John 3:19-21).
JESUS said, “He that loveth father or mother more than ME is not worthy of ME: and he that loveth son or daughter more than ME is not worthy of ME. And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after ME, is not worthy of ME” (Matthew 10:37-38). You must put JESUS who is the WORD first in your life. Anything that you place before HIM is an idol. The first of the Ten Commandments, written upon stone tablets by the finger of GOD, states: “Thou shalt have no other gods before ME” (Exodus 20:3).9
Prepare your hearts for sorrow. We are soon going to be in the greatest time of trouble that has ever been on earth.10 JESUS was asked what the signs would be of the end of the age. In chapter 24 of Matthew, JESUS gives us a good explanation. JESUS said, “For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened” (Matthew 24:21-22).
If you live a little while longer, you will see that you will not be raptured before the tribulation period! We are already at the beginning of the tribulation period. In many parts of the world, the persecution of Christians unto death is very real and growing worse. You must be tested and tried to see if you’re worthy to spend eternity in the most beautiful paradise that can’t even be imagined. GOD is not going to pull people into Heaven who say they are Christians, but are secretly sinners who walk in darkness with Satan. Not even one speck of sin shall enter Heaven.11
“Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath CHRIST with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of GOD with idols? for ye are the temple of the living GOD; as GOD hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their GOD, and they shall be MY people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the LORD, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a FATHER unto you, and ye shall be MY sons and daughters, saith the LORD ALMIGHTY” (2 Corinthians 6:14-18). Exceedingly great and precious promises are given from the LORD for your obedience.12 This includes eternal life in the paradise of Heaven.
Gird up your soul! Stay completely away from all compromise and everything that keeps you from Heaven and from seeking GOD all the time. The lukewarm Christian will not enter in.13 You must not break any commandment, especially the most important one, which is to LOVE THE LORD THY GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, ALL YOUR SOUL, ALL YOUR MIND, AND ALL OF YOUR STRENGTH. This can be done by walking in the SPIRIT of GOD.14 GET READY NOW.
The choice is yours. Begin a new life of holiness now by repenting of your sins and making JESUS your LORD. Start by saying this prayer to GOD:
Prayer
My LORD and my GOD, have mercy upon my soul, a sinner. 1 I believe that JESUS CHRIST is the SON of the living GOD. 2 I believe that HE died on the cross and shed HIS precious blood for the forgiveness of all my former sins. 3 I believe that GOD raised JESUS from the dead by the power of the HOLY SPIRIT 4 and that HE sits on the right hand of GOD at this moment, hearing my confession of sin and this prayer. 5 I open up the door of my heart, and I invite YOU into my heart, LORD JESUS. 6 Wash all of my filthy sins away in the precious blood that YOU shed in my place on the cross at Calvary. 7 YOU will not turn me away, LORD JESUS; YOU will forgive my sins and save my soul. I know because YOUR WORD, the Bible, says so. 8 YOUR WORD says that YOU will turn no one away, and that includes me. 9 Therefore, I know that YOU have heard me, and I know that YOU have answered me, and I know that I am saved. 10 And I thank YOU, LORD JESUS, for saving my soul, and I will show my thankfulness by doing as YOU command and sin no more.11
After salvation, JESUS said to be baptized, fully submerged in water, in the name of the FATHER, and of the SON, and of the HOLY SPIRIT.12 Then study the King James Version Bible, and, for your benefit and the benefit of others, do what it says.13
CHRIST and GOD the FATHER now live in you through the HOLY SPIRIT. There is a way you can receive a fuller portion of the divine nature of GOD in you. The more the divine nature of GOD lives in you, the more you will be able to stand against the temptations that have so easily moved so many millions of Christians away from salvation. Pray for the baptism in the HOLY SPIRIT.14 For instructions on how to receive the baptism in the HOLY SPIRIT and to receive more of GOD’S holy nature, ask for our literature or call. For without holiness, no man shall see GOD (Hebrews 12:14).

If you want the world saved, as JESUS commands, then don’t rob GOD of HIS tithes and offerings. GOD said, “Will a man rob GOD? Yet ye have robbed ME. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed THEE? In tithes and offerings. Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed ME, even this whole nation [and this whole world]. Bring ye all the tithes [a ‘tithe’ is 10% of your gross income] into the storehouse, that there may be meat [Spiritual food] in MINE house [souls saved], and prove ME now herewith, saith the LORD of HOSTS, if I will not open you the windows of Heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of HOSTS. And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of HOSTS” (Malachi 3:8-12).
