Supposed Born Again Christians Are Dressing Naked While Those Serving Fake God Are Dressing Well
Almighty Father, deliver your children from the paths of destruction they've chosen for themselves today in Jesus name. Amen.
Shalom!

The Elevation Of The GIFTS Of The Spirit Above The FRUIT Of The Spirit By Men Is A Disaster Waiting To Happen
Text: Romans 11:29 "For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance."
The calling into the ministry work and the possession of the gifts of the Holy Spirit is for earthly assignment. They are only useful here on earth, and their relevance, needs and operations will perish here on earth too 1 Timothy 6:7.
Therefore should you have been gifted by God with one or more gifts of the Holy Spirit either as a prophet, miracle worker, word of wisdom and knowledge minister, and should you have been called into the ministry either as a pastor, apostle, prophet, evangelist, teacher, elder, bishop or deacon, see that you use the office here on earth to glorify Jesus Christ alone 1 Corinthians 12:8-10, 28, Ephesians 4:11, Acts 14:23, Philippians 1:1. Do not begin to see yourself as more Christian than others as a result of your possession of the gifts of the Spirit because, you can be termed the greatest of all prophet and others and yet, you will still end up in hell fire Matthew 7:22-23, 1 Corinthians 13:1-3.
Now, if you work well and make heaven at your death by the grace of God, you are only going to be addressed by your own name up there in heaven, and never by the title(s) you may be bearing now here on earth Philippians 4:3.
Today in the churches, instead of men to crave for the FRUIT of the Holy Spirit, they are rather running after people who possesses the GIFTS of the Holy Spirit, even though these gifts are never needed in heaven Revelation 21:4; 22:2. This is a pity!
The GIFTS of the Holy Spirit 1 Corinthians 12:1-11
1 "Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant. 2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led. 3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. 4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. 6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. 7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. 8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; 9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; 10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: 11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will."
THE DANGER OF RELYING ON THE GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
Brethren, just as our text in Romans 11:29 says, the danger of relying on the gifts of the Holy Spirit is that, whoever have been gifted by God with any of the nine gifts of the Holy Spirit according to 1 Corinthians 12:8-10, such a person will continue to manifests and demonstrate these gifts even though such a one backslides from the faith and returned back to his/her vomit. This is very dangerous indeed!
Just like king Saul, most of these people today demonstrating the gifts of the Holy Spirit are now doing so under the influence of evil spirits 1 Samuel 18:10. And for you people running after these men in the name of signs and wonders, I pity you because you are not only playing with fire, you are equally endangering yourself to hell fire, as these people you are celebrating, who are best described as magicians are marking you with invisible demonic marks to identify you as a candidate of hell fire in the spirit realm. You better escape for your life now Genesis 19:17.
Another danger here is that most of these pastors, prophets, miracle workers are doing so using lying spirit. The encounter between Zedekiah and his company of prophets, against the LORD'S prophet Micaiah is a case study for your understanding here 1 Kings 22:5-28. Please, don't be blindfolded by supposed miracle workers.
Also, most of these magicians you called miracle workers today have succeeded to diverts your attention to themselves from Jesus Christ. With their anointed water, stickers, apron, mirrors, soap & sponge, calendar, wrist band, sand and other things you've been collecting from them, they have now placed your faith, healing and miracles on their demonic materials. This is surely a disaster waiting to happen!
No wonder Apostle Paul says such demonic people should be accursed but, the Christians of today don't give a damn, as far they are told their problems by these wolves. May Jesus set you free today in Jesus name. Amen.
Galatians 1:6 "I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed."
And yet more, the greatest danger that relying on the gifts of the Holy Spirit can bring on the people is the fact that, these pastors and prophets are demonstrating these gifts with the name of Jesus and using the bible. As a result, a lot of the people who are being deceived will be saying as far as such and such a prophet is preaching the word of God, using the bible, and calling on the name of Jesus that he/she can never be fake. What a deceit!
Your blindness to the truth and dependence on man, instead of God and HIS word through the help of the Holy Spirit, has caused you to forget that at the mention of Jesus name (by whomsoever), every knee bows in heaven, on earth and under the earth Philippians 2:9-11. This is in addition to the fact that Jesus said people are casting out devils, prophesying and doing wonderful works in HIS name but yet, HE (Jesus) doesn't know them Matthew 7:21-23. I pray that your eyes will be enlightened today in Jesus name. Amen.
THE FRUIT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
However, the FRUIT of the Holy Spirit which today's Christians have relegated to the background is the most important and best thing that can ever happened to a true Christian, who is heavenly conscious. This single FRUIT with nine attributes/characteristics is a MUST for every heaven candidates.
Let's see them in Galatians 5:22-23
22 "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law."
Brethren, do you know why these nine attributes of the Holy Spirit is called FRUIT (singular) and not FRUITS (plural)? This is because you are expected to have these 9-in-1 fruit complete in you before you can ever dream of seeing heaven, not to talk making it into heaven John 3:3, 5.
To further stressed the necessity of having everything complete in one, Brother James in James 2:10-12 says:
10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. 11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law. 12 So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty." Therefore, if you are speaking and not doing, you are doing yourself a great harm!
Do you know that these nine attributes of the fruit of the Holy Spirit is actually the characteristics of God? So, how do you expect to dwell in heaven with God when you are lacking in the things that made up heaven? Think deeply on these things now!
1. Love 1 John 4:8 "He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love."
2. Joy Nehemiah 8:10 "Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our LORD: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength."
3. Peace 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."
4. Longsuffering 2 Peter 3:15 "And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;"
5. Gentleness 2 Corinthians 10:1 "Now I Paul myself beseech you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ, who in presence am base among you, but being absent am bold toward you:"
6. Goodness Romans 2:4 "Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?"
7. Faith Galatians 2:16 "Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified."
8. Meekness 2 Corinthians 10:1 "Now I Paul myself beseech you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ, who in presence am base among you, but being absent am bold toward you:"
9. Temperance (self-control) Exodus 32:14 "And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people."
So, how will you claim to be a child of God, Holy Spirit filled and born again and yet, the things you are displaying both in your body, spirit and soul is nothing but the works of the flesh? Galatians 5:19-21. Do you think you can bribe God as a result of the gifts of the Holy Spirit in your life and the empowerment thereby? Consider this now and repent before it is too late.
In conclusion, I would like you to know that no sickness, death, trouble, money, devil, demons, marriage, school, business, job, enemies etc in heaven and therefore, all these gimmicks in the demonstration of the gifts of the Holy Spirit is not needed there. I hope you understand.
Should you desire to make heaven, see what Ephesians 5:9 says "For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth." Hebrews 12:14 also says "Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord."
Are you therefore holy? Are you righteous? Are you truthful? Do you possess the fruit of the Holy Spirit? Is your name written in the Lamb's book of life? Are you washed in the Blood of the Lamb? Are your sins forgiven?
Consider your ways now and make amends so that your labour in Christ will not be in vain.
God bless you.
Shalom!

God bless you you as we expect you to join us. Amen.
What If There's No Heaven? Will You Lose For Living A Holy Life?
Proverbs 29:1 "He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy."
Brothers and sisters, most of you especially supposed Christians are ALWAYS ANGRY AND ARGUMENTATIVE whenever you are told about the things that the Almighty God does not expects of us, especially as its relates to living a life of holiness, righteousness and TOTAL OBEDIENCE to the word of God in order to make heaven. You don't only argue with these things religiously, but dangerously, you look for every passage of the Holy Bible to support your unyielding spirit to continuously disobey the word of God. Brothers and sisters, you are endangering yourself!
Now, what if there's no heaven after all? Will you lose anything for living a holy and righteous life, and total obedience to word of God here on earth and at death, you discovered that all these things were ruse? Will it be a thing of pain or shame to you when you find out in eternity that you've been fooled with the teachings of holiness while on earth, whereas there's nothing like heaven after all? Brothers and sisters, will you LOSE ANYTHING?
My answer is CAPITAL NO!! You have NOTHING TO LOSE AT ALL. In fact, you have ALL THINGS TO GAIN in the long run because whether PLUS + OR MINUS -, you are on the safe side. What a great preparation for the unknown future in eternity! Behold, this is mystery which you may not know. Hallelujah. Glory be to God in the highest. Amen.
As Joshua the servant of God was about to die, he urged the Israelites to remember that all the promises of God had never failed.
Joshua 23:14 "And, behold, this day I am going the way of all the earth: and ye know in all your hearts and in all your souls, that not one thing hath failed of all the good things which the LORD your God spake concerning you; all are come to pass unto you, and not one thing hath failed thereof."
So I am putting you here in remembrance in case you don't know already that, there's certainly heaven, and is designed for a prepared people only, whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life. 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."
But, wisdom however teach us to fear God and this ultimately will lead you to heaven. Psalms 33:8 "Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe (fear, reverence) of him."
Psalms 111:10 "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever."
Proverbs 9:10 "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding."
May the LORD God Almighty show you mercy today in Jesus name. Amen.
Shalom!
What If There's Hell Fire? Will You Gain Anything For Living A Disobedient Life?
Job 8:11 "Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without water? 12 Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, it withereth before any other herb. 13 So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish:"
Psalms 9:17 "The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God."
Psalms 50:22 "Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver."
Brothers and sisters, most of us are living in TOTAL DISOBEDIENCE to God today as most of us are doing this as a result of our FAMILIARITY about God. We are actually disobedient to the instructions of the Almighty God due to our familiar attitudes and approach to HIS word.
Others on the other hand do not believe at all in the existence of hell fire, the home of Satan, the fallen angels now demons and the damn souls who lives and died without Christ. Matthew 25:41 "Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels"
Now, what if there's actually hell fire? What do you think you will gain, if after everything and every effort you put up to deny the existence of hell fire, only to discover that there's actually hell fire at your death? What will be your gain to see that every sinner will actually ends up in hell fire at your death?
Brothers and sisters, tell me now, what gain will you make should you find yourself in hell fire at your death, because of your self righteousness and claims that there's is no hell fire? What gain??
My answer to you is this: You will surely gain nothing but you will SURELY LOSE EVERYTHING. This is because either plus + or minus -, the wicked will never go unpunished.
Proverbs 11:21 "Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered."
Proverbs 16:5 "Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD: though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished."
I enjoin you today to please give your life to Jesus Christ now that it is day (while you are still alive), because at your death, there's no repentance from sin nor forgiveness of sin in hell fire. Repent now and you shall become a new creature in Christ Jesus and all your sins will be forgiven.
John 9:4 "I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work."
2 Corinthians 5:17 "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."
1 John 1:9 "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
Shalom!!
You Are Already Cursed By God For Encouraging Sin
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!"
I have seen supposed Christians today who quickly shut you down whenever you post or make comment against their worldly and ungodly inclination and lifestyle. They are quick to branding 'a judge'.
Anyway, I refused to be moved with your un-scriptural and out of context bible quotations to support your disobedience against the word of God, and your wickedness to continue in your sins. I wash my hands free from any guilt and condemnation by the Almighty God as result of your sins, hence I must constantly and continuously warn you whether you want to agree, believe or obey the word of God.
Open rebuke is better than secret love and therefore, speaking against secret sins in the open will bring repentance to the sinning soul. Proverbs 27:5 "Open rebuke is better than secret love."
Moreover as a watchman, I must continue to blow the trumpet because by the grace of God, your blood will never be required at my hands by God in Jesus name. Amen.
Ezekiel 33:6 "But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand. 7 So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me."
If you are therefore a supporter of sin and wickedness, with your continuous ceiling of your mouth while people are wilfully disobeying the word of God, or your ungodly criticism of those having the boldness to condemn sin and rebuke sinners, please repent now because you are ALREADY CURSED BY GOD for taking such wicked position.
2 Timothy 1:7 "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind."
You are warned now!!!
Shalom!
Hypocrites Bible Readers
A hypocrite is the one who called him/her self a Christian and quoting Romans 8:1 by stopping just at the first stanza (Romans 8:1a "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus") to justify their ungodly lifestyles, beliefs, teachings and behaviours. Brothers and sisters, you are only doing yourself.
If you are truly saved, born again, regenerated and Holy Spirit filled as you are claiming, you should realize that there is a stanza two (Romans 8:1b "who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.") which actually carried more weight than stanza one.
Are you truly saved, or you are just playing a religious card? Who exactly are you?
Good morning!
