Believe!

Men do not believe.  They do not believe that God is true.  So they go about their hopeless affairs as if God does not care. 

Why?   Why can men not bring themselves to believe that God cares?  Is it that they have not read his promises?  Or is it that they have prejudged the Holy Lord and decided even his writings are of no value.

Men do not believe the words of the Holy Lord of life, because they themselves are the only witness they witness.  And they count the Holy One as if he were like them.

They live their lives in error, far more than correctness.  They are full of fault and double minded in everything they do.  Their lives are a series of catastrophic failures.  All the while they live in a place that renews, even by itself, sustained by the Holy Lord, for the mercy of salvation.

They are wicked to the very core of their existence, and cannot find one righteous pure action within their members.  They wake in the morning having sinned on their bed.  They go through their day without knowledge, and lost in futility.  Evening comes to them and finds them immersed in trivial and worthless things.

Everyday is the same.  Therefore they judge from their own knowledge.

They know they are made of such things, and they suppose there is no better than they.  For along with the futility of their life, comes pride.  Humility is not desired, for certainly their weakness will be known.  Truth is far from them.  And embracing life is better.

So with a small wave of their hand and up raised chin, they dismiss the things of the Holy Lord of life.

They have lost nothing for they had nothing.  They stand to gain nothing for they will not believe. 

They look for proof that God is, and that He is righteous.  They set their feet firm saying, “I will not move until I know for sure.”

They spout great things of how the Lord will receive them because they are good people.  They are vicious creatures against the rule of God, while they consider themselves as pure.  All the while the Lord remains a fire of pure Holy Righteousness and merciful Love.

They look for mercy but do not repent of their sins.  They make no effort to learn of, or please the Most High God.  They count him as less than what is flushed down the toilet.  How then shall they be received by He who is Holy and Eternal?

You who do not believe.  You know that there is more than yourself.  Yet you remain like stone in your rebellion.

Remain then and die.  The Lord’s kingdom will move far from this place without you.  You will be left a beggar with your own witness witnessing against you.

The good news of God is all over this world.  The glorious news that God has prepared a way to embrace you, abounds.  Make your choice today.

Rise Up!

In the hand of God most high, through the never ending strength of Christ, there are blessings.  His perfect will is laid out before him and he knows the extent.

To the salvation of men his will is bent.  The blood of his Son has sealed it.

He has called to men by the work of the cross.  Yet who has believed his words?

Who will rise up and use what has been given?  Who is willing to receive the fullness of God’s wise gift of faith?

Who we will be, at the revealing of his Holy Son, is yet to be seen.  But there is testimony among men as to what we can be now.

Who then will take what God offers?  Who will reach to his Holy hand to become?

We say we believe the message of the gospel.  But the weakness within us stops our feet at a certain place.  The darkness before us looms with ominous trouble.  So we cease our search for his will.

We say, “I dare not go further for I do not know the way.”  But has God not promised to lead us?

Each man stands where he does by the sum of what he has been.  But God calls us to be his desire.

This challenge goes out to all.  Who will take what God offers, by Holy wisdom, to all his servants?

Do you fear he will ask too much?  Do you fear he will not provide once you begin?  Of course you don’t.

That was the accusation against God by he who accuses, and you know you are not of his house.

Then be encouraged!  Be greatly encouraged!  For every drop of Holy Blood was the sealed promise of the Most High God!  We have been told, and come to believe, God cannot lie.

To judge or to be the standard

The Angel stands to minister orders given by God.  He does what he was sent to do.  He knows he is in a direct sight of the Sovereign Father and his Holy Son.  The Holy Angels willingly obey.

The Angels attend the garden of God, which is this place of testing.  They are of the house of God.  They are not of this place of blood and flesh.  Therefore they do not judge man as they minister those things for which they were sent.  Perfectly, their entire being is firmly set on the will of God.  And man receives what God has sent through their hands.

God alone is Judge.  It is the sin of man that he judges his brother while he ministers those things for which he was sent. 

In the blindness of flesh we minister among the blind.  By this we mark ourselves as unholy.  It is not right that this should be.

We, who are of the house of God, will do well to consider our place.  It is good that we consider the service of the Holy Angels.  Is also good that we consider the service of men who have achieved a non-judgmental ministry.  (Personally I am convinced that every age of man sees a few such men.)

Those who are of the house of God. through the sacrifice of Christ Jesus, no longer belong to this place of blood and flesh.  They belong to eternity; sealed forever as the sons of God.  How can we then minister our charge as if we belong to the wicked?  I believe it is from a misunderstanding that we sin in this manner.

We are told that we will judge with Christ.  Do we suspect that we will take our place on the judgment bench and dictate the outcome for many?  (“And now, the judgment of all creation will be handed over to Johnny Richter!”)

Perhaps it is better to perceive that we will stand among a great throng; the people plucked from the fire and set apart from all else.

Perhaps it is better to perceive that God will use us as a standard.  He will point to one and say “This one is of your clan, but he has done such and such.   How is it that you did not?”

If that is how it will be on the day of judgement, how is it that Christians judge the wicked even now?  We do not judge with word and condemnation, though we proclaim words from God that do condemn.  Rather, we condemn the wicked by becoming.

By obedience and a willing heart we become God’s desire.  By this we are set apart.  Even in the clan of men from which we are taken we are marked as of the house of God.  And thus our former brothers are condemned even in this place.

We do not take our place among men on a bench crafted to judge.  Like the Holy Angels,  let us carefully choose what we perceive, and how we conduct ourselves as sons of God.

Why should we see their sin, unless it is to help them overcome?   Why should we listen to their vile words, except to increase their vocabulary into that which is holy?  And why should we witness the unlawful and unholy acts of men, except to teach them what is better.

Do not close up the judgment you are saved to display.  It is far better to learn from the Holy One and to do His will.  Let the sovereign God judge by speaking directly to the souls of men.  But let us become obedient and holy servants so that God may use us as an example.

We must assess.  Wisdom dictates assessment.  Who walks an open field successfully with his eyes closed?  Then assess with all due wisdom from God.

But setting our face toward heaven like flint, we purpose in all our being to obey.  By this we become a standard from which our brothers are judged.  And that without a word of personal condemnation from us.

In perfection of service we are not even allowed to compare.  By the true words of the Apostle Paul, we are not even allowed to judge ourselves.  How then shall we judge others?

But let there be no mistake.  As we are called to obey, we are also called to teach.  Let no man embrace the one and forsake the other.  Do not close up what God has opened among men.  For to do so, is to deny the Christ among men.  A thing for which a horrible end is promised.

If this message is not clear, please my brothers in Christ, ask God to show you.  These things are His will.  He will certainly educate.  Only let us be willing to learn.

The Purging

There are battles that rage of which we know nothing.  No man has ever heard an angel speak unless he is personally addressed; and that for the purposes of the war in spiritual realms.  The Holy Lord Jesus does not appear to men unless it furthers the means of heaven.  Men are nothing.  Nothing of heaven is for our entertainment.

We are what is being fought over.  And this place in eternity is not for the sake of men.  Is for the sake of the will of God and that for His Son Jesus. 

The man who thinks he is something is mistaken.  While we live in this place we are but pawns in a great contest.  Pride thinks otherwise.  And when this place is over we will take our place as servants of the Most High God.  Man has no individual purpose other than to serve the Lord who made him.

Pride devises a man’s self-importance by drawing on falsehoods.  Such a man thinks he is something because he knows how to tie his shoes.  But God is able to reduce such people.  To doubt that is to rely on the falsehoods the break our souls.

But once a man is in the clutches of the Most High God, he quickly learns the futility of pride.  All things are for Christ, and that to the glory of the Father.

The Lord will purge his people.  He will drive out iniquity.  Then, as it has been written, “You will know that I am God.”  Endure!
