The Mystery Babylon

The mystery Babylon
Culled From A Group Message By Evangelic, Facebook

In Revelation the 17th and 18th chapters we are given one of the most foreboding and ominous warnings contained in the whole scripture. Herein, we find identified a great WOMAN which is called the “Great Whore, Mystery Babylon, and the Mother of Harlots”.
She is also identified as the Mother of all the abominations of the earth. She stands above all others as a direct enemy to Jesus Christ. Her own seductive spell has swept the whole earth, from the kings to the inhabitants in it.

She is Satan’s queen (In Revelation 18:7, she says “I sit as a queen and am no widow”). So alluring and cunning are her enchantments that Revelation 17:8 tells us that the only ones who will not wonder but know her for what she is will be those whose names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life from the foundation of the world. All the world will eventually bow down and become a part of her and her daughter system.

WHO IS THIS TREACHEROUS WOMAN?

Below we have listed some verses out of Revelation 17 which will enable the reader to identify the CLUES provided by God to show who this WOMAN is.

The fact that we are dealing with a WOMAN who according to Revelation 13 desires to be worshipped reveals that it will be a RELIGIOUS SYSTEM.

The Church is typed in the Bible as a virgin, a WOMAN prepared as a Bride for Christ, for Christ is supposed to be our Bridegroom. But this woman we’re dealing with here is not a virgin, but a whore or a prostitute and is also a mother of harlots.

In Revelation 17:1-6, 9,15,18, we read THE CLUES:

1 - And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great WHORE that sitteth upon many waters:

2 - With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.

3 - So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a WOMAN sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.

4 - And the WOMAN was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:

5 - And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

6 - And I saw the WOMAN drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.

9 - And here is the MIND which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the WOMAN sitteth.

15 - And he saith unto me, The WATERS which thou sawest, where the WHORE sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

18 - And the WOMAN which thou sawest is that GREAT CITY, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

Now, let’s accumulate the CLUES listed in the above Scriptures and ask ourselves a question:
WHICH RELIGIOUS SYSTEM---
a. Controls multitudes, nations and tongues?
b. Has seduced kings and inhabitants of the earth?
c. Is arrayed in purple and scarlet?
d. Is decked with silver and gold?,
e. Is drunk with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus?
f. Sits upon seven mountains?
g. Is a great city reigning over kings?
Unless the reader is willfully ignorant it becomes obvious that the religious system herein described has to be the great CHURCH of ROME; the so-called “eternal city of seven hills”.

Let’s see further how The Vatican in Rome today resembles this Mystery Babylon.

a. Rome controls multitudes, nations and tongues.
No other authority on earth has ever interacted with the world and it’s political systems more than the Vatican. The International Monetary Fund and the World Bank in itself is owned and controlled by the Vatican.
b. Rome has seduced kings and inhabitants of the earth.
None other than the Vatican is involved in the ecumenical movement of compromise known today as religious tolerance and unity. The world has seen Pope John Paul-11 going to Israel in year 2000, meeting with Arafat, and even fellowshipping with communist leaders for world unity.

Today the call is for “humanity” and not for Christ. The call is for “Unity” and not separation from other world’s religions. The Catholic Church has even declared that Islam is an Abrahamic faith and Muslims are our brothers. Today the Catholic Church is seen as a friend to Islam. The Pope was even seen kissing the Quran for the whole world to witness.
c.d. The Vatican is arrayed in purple and scarlet, and is decked with silver and gold.
Who else but the cardinals and the archbishops of the Catholic Church dress-up in purple and scarlet, the colors of so-called “royalty”. The golden cup is exactly what the Pope uses in the celebration of the “mass”.
e. Rome Is drunk with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus.
As recorded in history, from the time of St. Augustine in 300 AD until AD 1850, 68 million Protestants have been killed by the Roman Catholic Church just because of disagreeing with their doctrine.

The Great Massacre of Ireland was one of the worst mass murders done by the Roman Church ever recorded in history. Millions of Christians were burnt at stake, fed to the lions, and tortured to death by the Catholic Church, which included Joan of Arc and St. Patrick - a “cup of abominations” indeed that deserves the Biblical verses mentioned in Revelation 17:6 “drunken of the blood of the saints and the martyrs of Jesus”.

Don’t be confused to start thinking that the Church of Rome has repented of her slaughter of the saints because she is attempting to unite with the Protestants today by making her creeds line-up with Protestant creeds. Not once has she ever apologized of her murders. No matter how sweet and mellow she appears at this particular time, she will yet rise up to kill, for murder lies in her evil and unrepentant heart. Just wait when the One World religion takes place. Those who will not bow down to the Pope will be persecuted, tortured, and killed again.

f. Rome sits upon seven mountains.
Rome is popularly known to the world as the “City of Seven Hills”. Yes, Rome sits upon literal seven hills. In fact, Rome is an autonomous nation within the nation of Italy and it is being ruled by the Pope as its sovereign president and head of state.
g. Rome Is a great city reigning over kings.
This WOMAN “Mystery Babylon” is none other than the Catholic Church. “Mystery” simply means it is “hidden” (subtle); “her deception is veiled to the world” but yet for a while.
Today, Rome appeals to all nations and religions due to her (false) doctrine of “unity”.

The Ecumenical Council, which is the "image" patterned after the system of Rome, is none other than the “Image” erected unto the Beast. A “Beast” means a “power” and it is the power of the Catholic Church. While an “Image” is something like it, which is nothing but the Confederation of Protestant Churches.
The whole system of “Beast” and “Image of the Beast” is an exact type of the force unity of the Tower of Babel in the Old Testament. The Tower of Babel was a religious worship of various races but not considered in the Word of God. Because it was by Nimrod, a wicked man who forced all the little countries to come into one place to erect such man-made tower.

Remember, that it was Imperial Pagan Rome that fell by the sword. But she was healed of her death stroke when she joined to the nominal Christian church of Rome and incorporated paganism and Christianity, and thereby became the Holy Roman Empire which was to endure until Jesus came and destroys her.

REVELATION 18:2-10 speaks of her destruction: “And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues... How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong [is] the Lord God who judgeth her. And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning, Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.”

ROME IS NOT DOING IT ALONE
Yet Rome is not doing it alone. Her daughters are right with her and she will take over absolute authority by the World Council of Churches.

This may seem far fetched to some but actually it is very plain for all to see because right now the churches are controlling politics and at the opportune time will manifest exactly how great is that control.
This ecumenical move will end up with Rome at the head even though the people did not envision it that way.

This is so because in Revelation 17:3-6 it states that the whore, Mystery Babylon is seated on the beast. She is controlling the last, or fourth empire. This Roman Church is doing that. With the world church system under her, Rome will be controlling, and this image (church system) will be obedient to Rome because Rome controls the gold of the world. Thus all the people have to belong to the world church system or be at the mercy of the elements for they cannot buy or sell without the MARK of the beast in the hand or head.

This “mark in the head” means that they will have to take the doctrine of the world church system which is “trinitarianism”, etc.. And the “mark in the hand” which means to do and follow or implement the will of the world church.

With this great power the church systems will persecute the true Bride of Christ. This image will try to keep the Bride from preaching and teaching. Her ministers will be forbidden to give comfort and truth to the people who need it. But before the Antichrist (in person) takes over this complete world system of churches, the true church will be taken away from this world to be with the Lord. God will catch away His bride for the great Marriage Supper of the Lamb in the rapture.

A MOTHER WITH HARLOT DAUGHTERS
(Revelation 17:15)
If the Mother is an illegitimate church, so also will be the Daughters. She was pretending to be a Christian church, but was giving out man-made dogmas and creeds. A scant study of all Protestant denominations will reveal that they actually came from the womb of Rome.

When Martin Luther was inspired by God to spawn the reformation it was a true revival. However, when Luther left the scene, the followers of Luther instead of being led by the Holy Spirit into further light denominated on Luther’s message and gave birth to another organization. In such a way, the first daughter was born and in the same manner every successive daughter came about the same way, all the way from the Baptists to the Methodists, to the Adventists, to the Pentecostals, and all.

Each church mixed their creed with God’s Word and like the mother strayed from God’s direct leadership to become a dead illegitimate organization because of their hybrid teaching. By the time of the Lord’s return, Rome and her adulterous daughters are seen to have formed into a vast system able to control politics, religion and commerce - a one world government system and a one-world religion, which is currently now being intensified under the leadership Pope Benedict XV1 with the cooperation of the member-Protestant churches of the World Council of Churches. From such the true ‘Bride of Jesus Christ will have to separate and heed the call of Revelation 18:4. “Come out of her my people and be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.”

ARE YOU PART OF THE BODY OF CHRIST OR PART OF THE SYSTEM?
If your faith is founded entirely on the Word of God, you are part of God. As Matthew 4:4 states, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every WORD that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.”
AND WHAT IS THE SYSTEM?

INSCRIBED IN THE VATICAN THRONE ARE THE LATIN WORDS “VICARIVS FILII DEI” WHICH when translated MEANS “Instead Of The Son Of God” or “In replacement of the Son of God”.

It becomes even more enlightening when one understands the numerical value of this blasphemous title. The value of these Roman numerals in this TITLE totals to 666! It is on this throne that the Anti-Christ will one day reveal himself.

666 then is the number of Rome and as such is the number of any system headed up by Rome.

Imagine such blasphemy of a man, whether he be a priest or pope, to claim to stand before the people “instead of the Son of God.” The second chapter of 2 Thessalonians describes him well:
2 Thessalonians 2:4. “Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. “

We can now see that this man of sin is truly exposed in Revelation 13:16-18. “And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a MARK in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or, sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred, threescore and six.”

Let us not be blind. It is-not by-chance that the major religious movements of today are leaning more and more to Catholicism. It is not by chance that the charismatic movement is becoming an adhesive to cement together Catholicism, Pentecostalism, and liberal Protestantism. It is not by chance that the Anglican church is trying to amalgamate with the Roman Catholic Church. Nor is it by chance that we have World Council of Churches with their one-world church thrust.
Though it is all very spiritual and much activity is taking place, remember the scriptures speak of two churches, one very large and illustrious and one very small and humble.

Don’t be fooled for there is no such thing as “unity and being one” as far as God is concerned unless it is unity around the Word of God.
In this hodge-podge, Catholics are still Catholics and all other respective churches hold to their own creeds with equal tenacity. “How can two walk together except they be agreed?”

There is little regard for basic scriptural fundamentals in this gatherings such as holiness, place of women, correct water baptism, error of infant baptism, and many others. In this mock revival the one dispensable element is the Bible itself.

Scripture nowhere points to a vast end-time revival nor does it teach that the Living Saints at the time of his second coming will be of any great number. Luke 18:8 STATES,” When the Son of Man cometh, shall he find faith on “the earth?”

Just as in Noah’s day (Luke 11:26) God will speak to the Laodicean Church and will call out individuals by his prophet to join Christ, (THE WORD) on the outside of the church. Rev. 3:20 says- “Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any MAN hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with Me.“ That faithful minority will represent His lovely but tiny end-time BRIDE today.

It Is Your Personal Choice To Either Make Heaven Or Make Hell Fire

It Is Your Personal Choice To Either Make Heaven Or Make Hell Fire

Making it to heaven is a PERSONAL choice, and never a collective exercise. Therefore, take your time and consider your supposed obedience to the word of God. Are you really obeying God as a Christian, or you are merely following the instruction of men? Reflect on your obedience now because nobody will be there with you on that day when you face God's judgment, not even your pastor will be there to set you free, when God will pronounce you GUILTY.

And in the vein, landing in hell fire as your eternal abode is your PERSONAL choice too. Therefore if you find yourself in hell fire at your death after believing your pastor that told you that you were on your way to heaven, whereas the instrument of sin and unrighteousness is your lot, it is because you chose to go there since you were equipped with the knowledge of the things that would take there so that you can battle hard to avoid them, but you preferred otherwise. No one to blame but YOURSELF!

So, where will you spend your eternity? Is it in heaven, or in hell fire? The choice is truly yours to make because there's no in-between in eternity.

Remember, making the choice of where you will spend your eternity is only possible right now that you still have the breathe of God in your nostrils. Immediately your eyes are closed in death, you can't change the destination again.

Please make the WISEST CHOICE right now by accepting Jesus Christ into your heart as your personal LORD and saviour. Fear HIM, obey HIM, serve HIM in holiness, righteousness, truth and in Spirit, and HE shall deliver your soul from making it to hell fire.

God bless you.
Shalom!

Joshua 24:14 "Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the LORD. 15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. 16 And the people answered and said, God forbid that we should forsake the LORD, to serve other gods."

Is Glo-1 Submarine Cable Dead???

Is Glo-1 Submarine Cable Dead??

I am curios and very sceptical about the whereabouts of the much media celebrated Glo-1 Submarine Cable, connecting Nigeria, Ghana and other African countries to the rest of the world, launched around 208 or thereabouts.

In my personal opinion and results from Speed Test servers, this cable is dead and only exists on mere papers. Or, does it mean that the cable is existing 'spiritually', thereby becoming invisible in its operation?
Should this be the case, how are the advertised connected companies by Glo done, when Network Speed Test Application can't locate its existence in the West Africa Sub Region?

Glo, where is your Glo-1 Submarine Cable? Why can't I find it among other International Submarine cables dotting the African waterways?
Prove it or else, Glo-1 Submarine Cable is dead.

For the avoidance of doubt, below are the companies offering International Gateway services in Nigeria, and they operate from Lagos, Nigeria, all with a distance of 1.050 KM from my present location, as shown by the Speed Test Application on my Android phone.

Thank you.

Christianity And Grace

Christianity And Grace

In Genesis 35:4, the bible says "And they gave unto Jacob all the strange gods which were in their hand, and all their earrings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem."

Now, if earrings were 'strange gods' that were put away before Jacob and his household could meet with God in Genesis 35:4, has it now become a 'familiar god' in the ears of today Christians, all in the name of being under grace according to Romans 6:14?
Is your using of earrings and other rings today not also a fact that 'sin has dominion over you' according to the same Romans 6:14, even though you are under grace? Judge yourself!!!
Romans 6:14 "For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace."

Does 'grace' overlooked disobedience (sin) against the word of God, in making the Old Testament bible age of none effect, irrelevant, null and void, in the face of the New Testament bible age under grace?
Romans 6:1 "What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? 15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid."

I do hear majority of our big time pastors always saying 'God cannot/has not changed', which is the truth according to Malachi 3:6 which says "For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed."

However, does this 'God cannot change' only applies to HIS promises of blessings, promotion, favours, healings, prosperity in the Old Testament bible, thereby living the rest outdated, even though the word of God (Old and New Testament) cannot pass away?
Matthew 24:35 "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away."

Should this be the case, then you have broken the word of God which says "for thou (God) hast magnified thy word above all thy name."
Psalms 138:2 "I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name."

Brethren, this God that magnified HIS word above ALL HIS NAME is a consuming fire Deuteronomy 4:24. HE is also a God that it is a fearful thing to fall into HIS hands Hebrews 10:31. HE is a God that judge in righteousness Revelation 19:11, Acts 17:31, and HE respect nobody's personality before taking HIS decision Acts 10:34, 2 Chronicles 19:7. I pray, may you never fall into the hands of this Mighty God for condemnation in Jesus name. Amen.

To therefore hide under grace in order to disobey God's word means you are living/walking in the flesh and at such, you are just playing a religious card and you can never please God Romans 8:8 because, the flesh can never submit to the law of God Romans 8:7.

You should therefore ask yourself: Does grace means the freedom to do anything you so desired at any given time as a Christian?

Shalom!

Being Born Again! Not Of Corruptible Seed

Being Born Again! Not Of Corruptible Seed

Text: 1 Peter 1: 22 “Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: 23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.”

According to the WordWeb dictionary, born again means: Spiritually reborn or having changed religion.

I will go with the ‘spiritually reborn’ because changing your religion does not amount to being born again. There are people who have changed from Christianity to Islam and vice versa, as well as from occultic practices to Christianity and vice versa. All these do not amount to being born again. Okay.

Being born again means to be regenerated in the spirit man with the word of God. Romans 12:2 “And be not conformed to this world: but BE YE TRANSFORMED BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”

 It means being fashioned after the word of God which is able to make you wise unto salvation through faith that is in Christ Jesus. 2 Timothy 3:15 “And that from a child thou hast known the HOLY SCRIPTURES (word of God), which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.”

Being born again is to put on the new man who is created in righteousness and true holiness, and fashioned after the image of Christ. Ephesians 4:24 “And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.” Colossians 3:10 “And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him.”

It also means to walk in the Spirit, which gives you the strength and ability to deal with your fleshy desires, trying to drawing you into lust. Galatians 5:16 “This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.”

Being born again also means bearing the FRUIT of the Spirit, which actually is the mark of your true testimony of being a born again Christian, of which if you lack one of them then, your supposed born again theory is having a big question mark.  Galatians 5:22 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.”

To be born again also mean to be separated from the world and its fleshy activities and works of darkness. Only then will the Almighty God ever received us to HIMSELF. 2 Corinthians 6:14 “Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? 15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? 16 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. 17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and d aughters, saith the Lord Almighty.”

To be born again is to be crucified with Christ, which now empowers you to live the life of Christ in the flesh by faith. Galatians 2:20 “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.”

To be born again is to be known of God, which then gives you the grace to overcome all the elements of the sinful nature which was once your master that tied you in perpetual bondage. Romans 1:19 “Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.”  Galatians 4:9 “But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?”

Being born again means to seek the things which are above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Col 3:1 “If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.”

To be born again means to do will of God. Churchianity is not Christianity and therefore, only those that do the perfect will of God are the true born again Christians. Mark 3:35 “For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.”  Colossians 4:12 “Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.” Matthew 7:21 “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.”

The born again theory in the church of Jesus Christ today is so bastardised that, even people that are manifesting the works of flesh in their lives claims that ‘they are born again’. The understanding of what born again means to the average Christian practitioner is to belong to one denominational church or the other. It means to carry bible around and be seeing entering a church by the unbelievers. It means wearing of rosary, wrist band of a denomination to some people. To some others, it means to be able to speak in tongues, give fat offerings, pay fat tithes, perform miracles, prophesy and do other great work for the name of the LORD. All these amount to nothing in terms of what born again entails.

To be religious in approach and fervent in church service/activities does not also mean born again. When Jesus Christ was speaking to Nicodemus, who was a ‘religionists’, HE made him to know that to be born again means to be born of the Spirit before one can see the kingdom of God, not to talk of entering into it. John 3:3 “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?  5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.”

Now if you are thinking that your attachment to one denomination or the other means that you are born again and that you are heaven-bound is a misconception. You must be truly born again and be very obedient to the word of God before you can ever make it to heaven. Amen.

Should you be born again and rapture ready as a Christian, these things people are doing today which is against the word of God must not be done by you. Most times, it always angers me in my spirit to see how pastors with so much eloquence of speech in their preaching of the bible, and great audience of souls under their tutelage but yet with so much worldliness and appearances of evil work Ecclesiastes 8:11, 2 Timothy 4:18 and yet, there’s no single address about the worldliness that the majority of these audience adorns themselves with Ephesians 5:11, 2 Timothy 4:2. I am always grieved in my heart to see how the church of Jesus Christ has today becomes the centre/headquarters of Satan Revelations 2:13, with all forms of abominations trooping into it by our pastors. Mark 11:17 “And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves.”

 If only these members of theirs will understand that they are leaving the altar of God straight to hell fire with the polluted messages of their pastors, they would have make every effort to deliver their soul from hell. Matthew 24:43 “But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.”

However, due to the fact that the ‘god of this world’ (Satan) had blinded their eyes, they will never see the danger ahead of them, even though it is presented to them in its rawest state. 2 Corinthians 4:4 “In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.” May God deliver your soul from hell fire today in Jesus name. Amen.

Brethren, it takes a wicked heart to see a wicked thing, and accept it as normal/good. Isaiah 5:20 “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!”

It takes a fleshly pastor to see his/her congregations flagrantly disobeying the word of God and calls it ‘none essentials’. Matthew 5:19 “Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.”

Friend, it takes a hell bound pastor to know the truth and fails to preach it to his/her congregational members. James 4:17 “Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.”

It takes a servant/minister of Satan, who claims to be a pastor or a minister of God to compromise on the word of God. 2 Thessalonians 2:8 “And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: 9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.”

Men and brethren, it takes an unregenerated pastor to keep on feeding his congregation and members with messages of grace, prosperity, favour, blessings and such like, without warning the sinner Christian about hell, consequences of disobedience, and the end of the unsaved soul , as well as teachings of truth, holiness and righteousness. Mark 4:18 “And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word, 19 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.”

In conclusion, I don’t care what your pastors have been telling you about being born again and what true holiness and righteousness means. I don’t care who you claim to be in Christ. I don’t care the congregation/church you belong. I don’t care how many of your prayers have been and answered and how many of your prophecies has been fulfilled. I don’t care how long you have been in the pastoral work, how many souls you have won for the kingdom of God, how many branches your denominational church have all over the world, or the number of private jets at your disposal. I stand here today to declare the truth to you, which is able to make you free. John 8:32 “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

If you must make heaven, if you are truly born again, you must not wear trousers as a woman. You must not use ornaments and jewelries as a man or woman. You must not use any type or form of ring in your hands. You must not use makeup on your body. You must cover your hair while praying as a woman. You must not use attachment and weaveon on your head as a woman. You must not bleach your skin. You must not tattoo yourself. You must not paint your fingers. You must not wear mini skirt as a woman. You must not barb your hair with funny styles as a man. You must ensure that the works of the flesh are not manifesting in you. You must make that your heart is truly clean of all unrighteousness because what you are doing on your body today, is the direct result of what you have in your heart Matthew 5:18.

If you are therefore painting, wearing earrings, wearing trousers, killing, stealing, tattooing yourself, backbiting, hatred, envy, fornications, stealing, lying, masturbating, and doing any other single wicked thing, they are already being done in your heart. Your claimed born again is therefore with corruptible seed 1 Peter 1:23. Stop deceiving yourselves as YOU WILL NEVER ENTER HEAVEN BECAUSE YOU ARE WITH DEFILEMENT. Revelation 21:27 “AND THERE SHALL IN NO WISE ENTER INTO IT (Heaven) ANY THING THAT DEFILETH, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.”

For you to keep on doing these things and yet claimed to be born again means, you have forsaken the LORD and HIS fear is not in you. I pray you will repent today in Jesus name. Amen. Jeremiah 2:19 “Thine own wickedness shall correct thee, and thy backslidings shall reprove thee: know therefore and see that it is an evil thing and bitter, that thou hast forsaken the LORD thy God, and that my fear is not in thee, saith the Lord GOD of hosts.”

Receive grace to conquer the flesh in Jesus name. Amen.

Shalom!

Beauty Is Vain Proverbs 31:30 Stop Your Makeup Now!!!

Beauty Is Vain Proverbs 31:30 Stop Your Makeup Now!!!

Text: Proverbs 31:30 "Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised."

PREAMBLE
Don't mistake the bible here. The vain beauty here is the artificial beauty that humans put on themselves with the aid of makeup materials and false hairdos. If you are therefore into makeup in the name of beauty, you are just a masquerade because you are wearing a mask over your real personality. If you are into makeup, please repent right now because it will definitely damn your soul in hell fire. God bless you.

Few days ago, I was ministering to a female colleague in my place of work, who uses makeup mildly. Before I even started preaching, the sister said 'I know what you are going to speak about'. I told her she was wrong, that building one's perception on 'assumption' wasn't right. At least, 'listen to what I really want to say before your conclusion', I told her.

However she persisted that she was already aware of my message. I then said to her that 'for you to actually know what I was about speaking, and yet you feel comfortable doing it as a Christian, then there's a problem somewhere', I had told her.
The said sister is a Christian because the Christianity of today according to men means 'ability to carry bible around and to belong to one denomination or the other', and not necessarily a life patterned after Christ Acts 11:26.

So, when I began speaking, I asked her three questions regarding beauty, especially the artificial beauty as painted by makeup which is pure deception.

1. The day your mother gave birth to you and the people that visited to wish your mother congratulations, and they then called you 'beautiful', was there makeup on you?
She said no.

2. When you are about going to bed after your bath in the evening, do you makeup your face?
Again, she said no.

3. Finally I asked her. When you die, will you still wearing makeup?
No, was her answer too.

You see, not only did this sister knows that to makeup your face was bad but that it was a sin, and yet she keep on doing it even though the word of God condemned it (in VAIN shalt thou make thyself FAIR Jeremiah 4:30). This is the same case with you people that calls yourselves Christians and yet you are making up your faces. May the mercy of God speak for you stiff necked Christians today in Jesus name. Amen.
Deuteronomy 31:27 "For I know thy rebellion, and thy stiff neck: behold, while I am yet alive with you this day, ye have been rebellious against the LORD; and how much more after my death?"
Jeremiah 17:23 "But they obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction."

GOD MADE EVERYTHING NATURALLY BEAUTIFUL
 Genesis 1:31 "And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day."

God made everything BEAUTIFUL in their time, why are you then destroying the beautiful work of the LORD with makeup and artificial materials on your body? I pray you will repent today. Ecclesiastes 3:11 "HE HATH MADE EVERYTHING BEAUTIFUL IN HIS TIME: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end."

In Psalm 139:14, the bible says "I will praise thee; for I AM FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well."
Now, can you imagine how you are destroying this wonderful work of God with makeup all in the name of beauty? Please repent today.

MAKEUP PEOPLE ARE WHITED SEPULCHRES (GRAVES)

The state and position of you people making up your faces and hair is what Jesus Christ said in Matthew 23:27. You are truly a whited sepulchres with your makeup beauty outside, but inside of your heart is full of all forms of uncleanness, wickedness and dead works. May you be delivered from the deceit of makeup today in Jesus name name. Amen.
Matthew 23:27 "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness."

MAKEUP WILL ATTRACT DEATH TO YOU AND ULTIMATELY YOUR SOUL WILL BE DAMNED IN HELL FIRE

Why is the daughter of Zion (a Christian) crying in sorrow? Why is she in anguish of her soul? Why is she bewailing with lamentation? You see, she thought that by painting herself with makeup that she will get lovers and attention, but instead it was people that were interested in her death that came her way.

Ask yourself this question: How many people have lost their lives to ritualist and other devilish people in the society, for putting on false look that attracted their predators? Repent before it's too late today. Amen.
Jeremiah 4:30 "And when thou art spoiled, what wilt thou do? Though thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold, though thou rentest thy face with painting, in vain shalt thou make thyself fair; thy lovers will despise thee, they will seek thy life. 31 For I have heard a voice as of a woman in travail, and the anguish as of her that bringeth forth her first child, the voice of the daughter of Zion, that bewaileth herself, that spreadeth her hands, saying, Woe is me now! for my soul is wearied because of murderers."

A MAKEUP WEARER IS NOT A CHRISTIAN, A CHRISTIAN IS NOT A MAKEUP WEARER

Stop deceiving yourself my dear friend. The fact that you are a pastor, a church founder, a pastor's wife, a prophetess, a deaconess, a bishop or even an archbishop, as far as you are wearing makeup on your body, YOU ARE A CANDIDATE OF HELL FIRE 100%, and all these religious titles you are parading around shall NEVER saved you from making hell fire, except you repent today and cry for mercy unto the LORD.

Again, if you are a user of makeup and despite your fat tithes, offerings and arms you are giving, including the miracles, signs and wonders you are performing in the name of the LORD Jesus Christ, YOU ARE NEVER A CHRISTIAN, and there's no two ways about it. Jesus Christ will still declare to you "I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity." O LORD I pray, have mercy on your children using makeup today in Jesus name. Amen. Please repent now of this wickedness.

Luke 13:24 "Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able. 25 When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are: 26 Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets. 27 But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity. 28 There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out. 29 And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God. 30 And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which shall be last."

By the way, you called yourself a Christian (Christ like) but there's no difference between you and a whore in the streets, by reason of your makeup, where then lies your Christianity claims? The bible says 'old things (sinful nature including your previous makeup life) have passed away from anyone in Christ', who now wears a new creature (the Life of Christ) 2 Corinthians 5:17. But in your own case, you've grown from bad to worse in your makeup, and yet you are still claiming of being a Christian? You are not my dear.

Until you separate yourself from the world, you will never be accepted by the LORD Jesus Christ, no matter how prayerful and zealous you are in the things of God. Your flesh must die before you can truly pleased the LORD.
2 Corinthians 6:17 "Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, 18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty."
1 John 2:15 "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. 16 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. 17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever."
Romans 8:7 "Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be."
Ephesians 2:15 "Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; 16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby."
James 4:4 "Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God."

Bathsheba was a beautiful woman without any form of makeup, and was noticed by King David, who eventually lusted after her and committed adultery with her. 2 Samuel 11:2 "And it came to pass in an eveningtide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king's house: and from the roof he saw a woman washing herself; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon."

Makeup users, you have caused many men to lust after your vain beauty in their hearts, thereby damning their soul in hell fire. Proverbs 6:25 "Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids."

Jesus Christ has given you enough rope to repent. Revelation 2:20 "Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. 21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. 22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. 23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works."

Please repent today so that you will not end up in hell fire after your long service in the vineyard of Jesus Christ.

God bless you and happy Easter in Jesus name. Amen.
Shalom!

The resurrection of Christ was also foretold.

Matthew 28:16 "Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. 17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted."
John 20:24 "But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came. 25 The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the LORD. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe."

The door of the resurrected Christ is still wide open to every sinner to come in.
Friends, the door of the risen Christ is still open to you right now.
Luke 13:25 "When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are."

Are you risen from dead works with Christ? Then, walk in newness of life.
Colossians 2:12 "Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead."
Colossians 3:1 "If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God."

Remember, the risen Christ has the power to condemn and send you to hell fire, should you choose to reject HIS redemptive work on the cross for you.
Romans 8:34 "Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us."
John 3:17 "For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil."

Happy Easter Sunday Resurrection Morning.

His BLOOD Was Shed For Your Redemption

His BLOOD Was Shed For Your Redemption

Are you going to allow this PRECIOUS BLOOD to be a waste? Are you going to allow the pain, suffering and agony that Jesus Christ went through for your sake to be in vain? Are you going to allow the shameful death of Jesus Christ on the cross because of you to be of none effect?

Your refusal to accept Jesus Christ into your life as your personal LORD and saviour, and your partial obedience to HIS WORD is causing Jesus fresh pains right now, and HE is remembering all HE went through in order to save you from your sins.

Accept Jesus Christ into your life today and your redemption shall be sure in Jesus name. Amen.

Happy Good Friday.
Shalom!

Matthew 27
1 When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:
2 And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
3 Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,
4 Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.
5 And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.
6 And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.
7 And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.
8 Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this day.
9 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value;
10 And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.
11 And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest.
12 And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.
13 Then said Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee?
14 And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly.
15 Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner, whom they would.
16 And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.
17 Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ?
18 For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.
19 When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.
20 But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
21 The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas.
22 Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.
23 And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.
24 When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.
25 Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.
26 Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.
27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.
28 And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.
29 And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!
30 And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head.
31 And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.
32 And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross.
33 And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,
34 They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.
35 And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.
36 And sitting down they watched him there;
37 And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38 Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.
39 And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,
40 And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.
41 Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,
42 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.
43 He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.
44 The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth.
45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.
46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
47 Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias.
48 And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
49 The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.
50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
54 Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
55 And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:
56 Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee's children.
57 When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple:
58 He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.
59 And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
60 And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.
61 And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.
62 Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,
63 Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.
64 Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the first.
65 Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make it as sure as ye can.
66 So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch.

What Instrument Is Your Members (Body) Used?

What Instrument Is Your Members (Body) Used?

Romans 6:12 “Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. 13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.”

My dear Christian brothers and sisters, what instrument are you using your members (body) for? Romans 6:19 “I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.”

Is it of unrighteousness unto sin? Or of righteousness unto God? The fruits you are bearing shall surely expose who you are truly representing.

Matthew 7:16 “Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.”

Therefore, you cannot claim to be a worshipper of Jesus Christ John 4:23-24 and yet, sin still have dominion over you as you keep on decorating yourself with the materials of Satan Romans 6:14. Repent now before the anger of the LORD God Almighty, who is a merciful God Deuteronomy 4:31, but also a consuming fire at the same time Deuteronomy 4:24.

Just remember that there’s no unrighteousness with God Romans 9:14 and therefore, no unrighteous man/woman will ever make it to HIS righteous kingdom 1 Corinthians 6:9. By the way, how do you think you will ever enter into heaven with all your unholy, sinful acts and defiled body? It is never possible! Revelation 21:27 “And THERE SHALL IN NO WISE ENTER INTO IT ANY THING that DEFILETH, neither whatsoever worketh ABOMINATION, or maketh a LIE: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.”

If you find yourself doing/using the under listed, I am sorry you cannot make heaven, no matter how sure you think you are heaven bound or the assurance from your pastors that keep on telling you that ‘God is only interested in your heart and not in your body’. This is because God expects us to be wholly sanctified and presented blameless in our body, soul and spirit throughout our Christian race. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 “And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I PRAY GOD YOUR WHOLE SPIRIT AND SOUL AND BODY BE PRESERVED BLAMELESS unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Please, don’t deceive yourself that because your prayers are still answered, that you are still performing great signs and wonders as the Almighty God keep using you, that your prophecies are coming to pass expressly, that you are great preacher and pastor, does not guarantee you heaven at all. Do remember the words of Jesus and take a second look at your Christian life now. Matthew 7: 21 “NOT EVERY ONE THAT SAITH UNTO ME, LORD, LORD, SHALL ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 AND THEN WILL I PROFESS UNTO THEM, I NEVER KNEW YOU: DEPART FROM ME, YE THAT WORK INIQUITY.” Halleluyah!

If you are therefore willing to surrender your life to Jesus Christ now and forsake all your instrument of abomination, why not invite HIM into your life right now. Jesus said ‘him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out’ John 6:37.

Please pray and pour out your heart unto Jesus. Tell HIM how deeply sorry you are. Tell HIM you truly repent from all your instrument of abomination, which you have always used to nail HIM to the cross on a daily basis. Confess, forsake and repent of all your sins now, so that you enter heaven when you die. May the LORD Jesus accept all your prayers. Amen.

God bless you.

Shalom!
