We All Hope For A Better Life

Where in the world are we placing our hope these days? It seems that man is placing their hope for change everywhere but the right place. Let’s find out just where man has been placing their hope.

We take our hope and place it in something with a vision in our mind thinking that this is what the outcome is going to be. Our imagination can run wild and believe that men can make a change and give us a better life than what God has to offer. Ask yourself this, “Has man ever given you happiness, joy, peace and love that will last forever?” Can man give you eternal life? Can man give you protection from your enemies? Read more

Practice To Love Your Neighbor Daily

1John 2:9-11 Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates his brother is still in the dark. But anyone who loves his brother is living in the light and need not be afraid of stumbling; unlike the man who hates his brother and is in the darkness, not knowing where he is going, because it is to dark to see.

1John 4:20,21 Anyone who says, ‘ I love God,’ and hates his brother, is a liar, since a man who does not love the brother that he can see cannot love God, whom he has never seen. So this is the commandment He has given us, that anyone who loves God must also love his brother. Wouldn’t it be a beautiful world if everyone loved each other? Well, that’s the kind of world God has planned for those who can love each other. The question is, will you be apart of it? Read more

What Happened To The United States – The Greatest Nation Podcast

What Happened To The United States? [ 11:00 ] Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

Everything about the greatest nation in the world was perfect. So, what happened?

What happened to this country? We were once the greatest nation in the world. Now, we’re on the verge of bankruptcy. It wouldn’t take much to cause a financial collapse. We could even become a third world country by the way we’re heading.

This country has it all. Good soil to grow just about any crop you want to plant. Our land is full of precious minerals that we could mine. Everything about this country was perfect. So, what happened? Why have we become so dependent on other countries for the things we have right here in our own backyard? Why do we import everything these days?

It is so important for a country to be self-sufficient. For example: When we entered World War I & II, we were able to produce everything needed to sustain ourselves. We can’t do that these days, a lot of contracts have been given to foreign countries. We also rely too much on imports. What if we went to war with one or two or more of these countries? What would happen if our enemy took over the country(ies) that we rely on for minerals or parts for our jets or basically anything that is not mined or manufactured here? We lost our self-sufficiency. We have no one to blame but ourselves.

We let too many things happen to this country. We let athiests tell us we can’t pray here or there. They tell us we have to remove God from this country. This country was built on God by faith and trust in Him. This country cannot survive without God, as you will see. It’s already falling apart. We let the immorals of homosexuality have it’s way. We all hate child molesters, yet we let people manufacture and sell costumes that makes a woman look like a little girl. Look at our prisons, filled to the max. Sex is totally out of control, there’s nothing sacred about it anymore, by the way things are going, kids will be having sex before they’re 10 years old.

Families are almost non-existent. Kids are out of control. Our youth are not getting properly educated. Too much reliability on technology(we don’t have to use our mind anymore). Both parents have to work to keep up with the wants. God will take care of our needs, provided we love Him. This is why both parents have to get a job these days. God doesn’t want to see broken homes or families that are apart even though they live together. I remember when the Father would go to work and the mother would be at home for the family. It was nice to get up in the morning to a good breakfast, come home from school and mom would be there waiting. In the evening we would all have a good wholesome dinner together, not fast food garbage or frozen dinners. This was a great time for the family to interact with each other.

Everyone seems to be so self-absorbed these days. Instead of how can I help, it’s what can I do for me. There is a great lack of consideration for one another. Instead of people being considerate, it seems like they want to make others angry. If you need an example, just take drive somewhere, it won’t be long before you see what I’m talking about. Inconsideration, purposely doing things to annoy others, or just plain being ignorant is nothing more than Hate. It’s all in your attitude. If you want to have a pleasant day, then be pleasant. If you want to be miserable, then keep it to yourself.

From time to time, things go wrong, mistakes happen, as well as accidents. Nobody’s perfect, we need to remember this. When someone makes a mistake we need to help them through it, not make it worse for them. This is called compassion, a form of love. Be grateful for what you have, there’s always someone worse off than you.

Greed has many different forms. It already has caused this country to be on the verge of a depression. The world itself is close to a global economic colapse. Things are happening all over the world that we need to be concerned about. Natural disasters, famine, disease, terrorism, a new super power on the rise (which will be a big threat to us & I don’t think we’re going to win this one).

What happened to this country? What happened to the world? Why are we putting up with terrorism? Why do we even negotiate with these people? You can’t negotiate with hate. Israel has been trying for years. They keep giving away land in exchange for a peace deal and the U. S. even coaxed them into it. They have given away land that rightfully belonged to them. They’re almost out of land. The land they’ve traded for peace, still hasn’t brought them any peace, only more terrorists. They almost have Israel completely surrounded. Egypt is the only one left and they’re hooking up with Iran and going to break ties with Isreal. Israel right now wants to give up half of Jerusalem. Israel, the United States and England seem to be wimping out these days. Not having God as head of a nation is a big mistake, but we can still be the greatest nation in the world.

Back when Israel had faith in God, they were strong, the ultimate warriors, just as they were in the Old Testament days. Look at the Six Day War, it was an impossible feat for any country to accomplish what they did in six days. God was certainly with them then. History repeats itself, great nations come and go like the wind. With God, nothing is impossible. When we start pushing God away disaster happens. These things are happening right now to Israel, the United States and England.

It’s not going to get better until we get better, in other words Wake Up! Man seems to always want to do things his way. Why? Because of pride. God created this planet and He created us. One other of man’s downfalls is teaching evolution. God knows better than anyone about how things are supposed to be done, whether it’s farming, or how to set up a community so there isn’t people living on top of people causing diseases and how to punish criminals so crimes will cease, even how to pay taxes (one tax – 10%). We have more taxes than we know what to do with. God gives us all the instructions we need to be healthy, properous and so no one goes without. We could be free from all misery, so why are we so stupid? We wouldn’t let someone operate on us without knowing that that person was properly instructed on how to perform an operation would we? How about work on our car or build a house for us or teach our kids in school?

There’s a perfect instruction manual available to us on everything we need to know about life and how to live it. This manual is called the Bible. It was given to us by our ever so loving God. If we all would follow His Instructions, we could all live together in perfect harmony. We would be able to live our lives in total peace and freedom without fear. God wants to bless us so much, He doesn’t want us to suffer. All God is asking is that we love Him back. Why is that so hard? Such a small price to pay for peace and happiness.

May God Bless You and Your Family

What is Life After Death? Podcast

What is Life After Death? [ 7:15 ] Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

Life and Death – Physical and Spiritual

When Adam and Eve sinned, their carnal eyes opened. Sin had caused them to lose that spiritual bond they had with God. When they were living a spiritual life, death had no hold on them. It wasn’t until they sinned that death would come upon them. God allows death to the flesh so man won’t live forever in the misery of sin. Would there sin cause them to lose life after death?

Adam and Eve were thrown out of the Garden of Eden so they would not partake of the Tree of Life and live for ever in their sins. We all know that one day we are going to die, it’s inevitable. The one thing we don’t know is “when”. Many people are afraid of death, but why? Could it be that this life is all that they have going for them? Could be that this is where they set their hearts, on the world, instead of Jesus Christ. If you don’t know Jesus, this could cause you to be afraid to die. Call on Jesus for life after death of the flesh. Revelations 3: 3 ‘Repent. If you do not wake up, I shall come to you like a thief, without telling you at what hour to expect me.’ Read more

Beware of People Preaching False Doctrines [ 4:57 ] Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

Who Are You Listening To?

There’s a lot to be said about this topic. First off, almost anyone can fall prey to these people. Jesus said in Matthew 7:15,16 ‘Beware of false prophets who come to you disguised as sheep but underneath are ravenous wolves. You will be able to tell them by their “fruits”. (If you do not know what they mean by “fruits” read Galatians 5:22).

You have good orators for one. They know how to hold your attention which is very important to them or no one would listen. Most of them are taught how to do this. Let’s ask ourselves a few questions. Am I looking for someone to tickle my ears? Why did I choose the church I am now attending? What about the bible study I am now in? Take a moment before reading on and think about it………. Read more

Good Master, what have I to do to inherit eternal life?

Matthew 6:19-21 ‘Do not store up treasure for yourselves on earth, where moths and woodworms destroy them and thieves can break in and steal. But store up treasure for yourselves in heaven, where neither moth nor woodworms destroy them and thieves can break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

What treasure is stored up in your heart? What’s attached to my heart?, worldly things?, things of the flesh?, people?, places? You could find a number of things if you look. These things are what keep God out of your heart. God is a jealous God and loving someone or something above Him is not loving God. You can test yourself to see what’s attached to your heart by seeing if you can live without whatever you have. All the different things you do, people you love, and things you have.

Luke 18:18-23 A member of one of the leading families put this question to Him, ‘Good Master, what have I to do to inherit eternal life? Jesus said to him, ‘Why do you call Me good? No one is good but God alone. You know the commandments : You must not commit adultery ; you must not kill ; You must not steal ; You must not bear false witness ; Honour your father and mother. He replied, ‘I have kept all these from my earliest days till now. ‘And when Jesus heard this He said, ‘There is still one thing you lack. Sell all you own and distribute the money to the poor and you will have treasure in heaven ; then come follow me.’ But when he heard this he was filled with sadness, for he was very rich.

It’s that attachment thing, his heart was full of temporary love. Not the everlasting love of God. Rich doesn’t always apply to people with millions. If you have more than someone else, you are rich. Detachment is the way to a spiritual life and true spiritual love for God and your neighbor. Luke 18:24, 25 Jesus looked at him and said, ‘How hard it is for those who have riches to make their way into the Kingdom of God! Yes, it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God.’

In Jerusalem there was a gate called “the eye of the needle”. It was only big enough for one person at a time to pass through. It was the only gate open at night, in case of enemy attack. If a person wanted to bring his camel into the city at night he would have to unburden the camel. Removing all items attached to the camel. Then he would have to get the camel down on all four knees and have him crawl through the gate willingly.

Now, we know that camels are pretty stubborn animals, probably the most stubborn. In this scripture Jesus is using a camel to describe us. We can be pretty stubborn when it comes to giving up our petty little lives. When we follow Jesus and in our walk with Him, we need to unburden ourselves, by lightening the load we carry.

How about your mind? We constantly occupy our minds with meaningless thoughts. Things like, how much better things would be if you had a lot of money or a better job, daydreams, things we lust for, etc., etc. Our life is supposed to be in Gods hands and we are supposed to do His will. But how are we supposed to find out what Gods will is for us if we keep our minds occupied with frivolous things? Our minds should be occupied on spiritual things, like proving God’s promises and fulfilling the laws of righteousness. How corrupt is your soul?

John 2:13-16 And pasch of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. And He found in the temple them that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting. And when He had made, as it were, a scourge of little cords, He drove them all out of the temple, the sheep also and the oxen, and the money of the changers He poured out, and the tables He overthrew. And to them that sold doves He said : take these things hence, and make not the house my Father a house of traffic.

The body is a temple and it houses your soul. What you bring in can corrupt your soul. Your eyes are the windows to your soul. Your other bodily senses can corrupt your soul. Just like the Jews corrupted the temple of God. They’re scales were not true, they sold blemished animals (like buying a lemon). They were con artists and thieves. The things of the world and also your carnal self will rob your soul of the love of God and everything He promised us. We need Jesus to come into our temple and clean house(Colossians 2:11 circumcision of the flesh).

Love God with all your strength. God loves people that are strong and brave, ones that can cut it. Ones that are not afraid of tests and trials. He does not want a kingdom full of wimps. God wants people who can stand up to satan and everything he can dish out. (read Job) Not people as in the parable of the sower.

Mark 4:14 What the sower is sowing is the word. Those on the edge of the path where the word is sown are people who have no sooner heard the it than satan comes and carries away the word that was sown in them. Similary, those who receive the seed on patches of rock are people who, when first they hear the word, welcome it at once with joy, but they have no root in them, they do not last ; should some trial come, or some persecution on account of the word, they fall away at once.

God will give you the strength you need to face tests and trials, provided you have faith. God will never give you more than you can handle or give you a way out. Overcome your weakness’. Don’t gloat on your victories or satan will have the last laugh. Keep your gaurd up. Satan will be back and he will hit harder. Be Strong!

Jesus says in Matthew 6:24-34 ‘No one can be the slave of two masters : He will either hate the first and love the second, or treat the first with respect and the second with scorn. You cannot be the slave of both God and money. That is why I am telling you not to worry about your life and what you are to eat, nor about your body and how you are to clothe it. Surely life means more than food, and the body more than clothing!

Look at the birds in the sky. They do not sow or reap or gather into barns ; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they are? Can any of you, for all his worrying, add one single cubit to his span of life? And why worry about clothing? Think of the flowers growing in the fields ; they never have to work or spin ; yet I assure you that not even Solomon in all his regalia was robed like one of these. Now if that is how God clothes the grass in the field which is there today and thrown into the furnace tomorrow, will He not much more look after you? you men of little faith.

So do not worry ; do not say, “What are we to eat? What are we to drink? How are we to be clothed? It is the pagans (worldly people) who set their hearts on all these things. Your heavenly Father knows you need them all. Set your hearts on His kingdom first, and on His righteousness, and all these other things will be given you as well. So do not worry about tomorrow : tomorrow will take care of itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

You have a choice of two lives to live, one is worldly and the other is spiritual. Problem with the worldly life is that when you die, it dies also and you are left with nothing. The nice thing about the spiritual life is that when you die only your flesh dies and you keep on living because you stored up your treasures in heaven. No more tears or sorrow. We will finally be home with God , Jesus and the Holy Spirit, also with all those that made the choice of life. The ones that decided to love God over the world and their own self.

We spend to much time for ourselves, and self is pride. Pride is the root of all evil. Pride is the root of the tree of death. All sin comes from pride. Give up yourself, your life, pick up your cross and follow Jesus to the tree of life. Too many people believe that there is nothing wrong with enjoying life’s pleasures. And that God wants us to. And they say, ‘He made all this for us to enjoy.’ Well, Jesus says in John 18:36 ‘My kingdom is not of this world.’

Go back to the beginning before the fall, and read what God created. 1John 2:15-17 ‘You must not love this passing world or anything that is in the world. The love of the Father cannot be in any man who loves the world, because nothing the world has to offer – the sensual body, the lustful eye, pride in possessions – could ever come from the Father but only from the world, with all it craves for, is coming to an end; but anyone who does the will of God remains for ever.’

So for the pleasure seekers, the ones that say, ‘There’s nothing wrong with this or that,’ Have a nice trip! But for those that follow Jesus and die in Him for the sake of loving God, and gives up their life for His love, see you soon.

Repentance – Feel Deep Sorrow About One’s Actions

We Need Jesus To Help Us Prepare Our Hearts

Feel deep sorrow about one’s actions, etc., etc. wish one had not done; resolve not to continue (a wrong doing etc.) Repentance is much more than just saying, “I’m sorry”. One needs to see how one has lived and is living their life. We have become so accustomed to living a worldly life for ourselves, that we are totally blind to what is acceptable living in the eyes of God. Carnally, it’s our nature to live a worldly life, mostly for ourselves, for the life we want, and not the life that the Lord wants us to live, the life that will prepare us for the kingdom of God.

Preachers and Teachers Need To Be Tested

“Be Careful Of The Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing”

Be very careful these days. There are a lot of nonspiritual preachers out there and ones that speak half truth. You have to remember that many, many preachers were taught by man and not by God, not by Jesus and not by the Holy Spirit.

Preachers need to be tested to see if he/she is worthy to seek spiritual advice from. It’s not enough to have credentials hanging on the wall. They need to be guided by the Holy Spirit and also Faith. One thing you might want to look at is, “What works of faith can they produce?”

Ask yourself this, “Does my church teach confession?” if not, then, “Why not?” I don’t know of any Christian churches that teach confession. All the ones I have attended in New Jersey and Florida haven’t. When I’ve inquired about it, they just seem to want to avoid the subject. I can understand that nobody wants to look inwards at themselves and see the rotten garbage that accumulated over the years.

In James 5: 16 it says, “So confess your sins one to another, and pray for one another, and this will cure you.” ( Read Confession ) So I ask you, “Does your church practice confession?” Could be that they don’t know how. Confession and making amends is a deep cleansing and it is what will lead you to repentance.

One church I started to attend, I spent almost a month observing and listening to the preacher before I had a one on one meeting with him. I enjoy talking with people about the Lord, but anyway I was trying to figure out how spiritual he was. Well, the Lord showed me.

One night I was in my bedroom sitting in a chair contemplating on the Lord when the Holy Spirit took me into a gaze and showed me a vision. I saw complete darkness, and in the darkness was this preacher nailed to a cross. The cross was spinning slowly, and every time I saw the preachers face, it was full of horror. His mouth was opened what seemed like three times bigger than normal.

Over the few years of attending this church, the Lord also gave me confirmations that this was not the man to be seeking spiritual advice from. As a matter of fact, I thought I was going to pass out from some the teachings that he spoke.

I called on Jesus just over 20 years ago. I have never been taught by man, only by God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. I could never put something so important as my salvation in the hands of any man. I trust God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit only. When you pray, pray for two things, Love and the gift of discernment.

Face Life One Day At A Time With God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit

After following Jesus and working the past 11 lessons, one should have gained a lot of knowledge about oneself. Such things as the way you think and act, how you treat people and the way you treat them. You should have learned a great deal about sin, like pride, greed, envy, sloth, impatience, jealousy, anger and gluttony. One should have gained a lot of humility as one looked deep within their self and saw what a wretch you really are. We’re not perfect, but we sure can work towards spiritual perfection. Read more
