WORD OF GOD

WORD OF GOD

The primary responsibility of ministers is to preach The Gospel about The Kingdom of God (Mark 1:14), as Christ did. But, is the preaching about God’s Kingdom the same as God’s Work? Or, is The Kingdom message, The Good News, about the goal of God’s Work? Could it be that the achievement of God’s Kingdom is really the effort of God completing His Work? Does The Bible tell you what The Work of God is? What kind of Work is God busy doing, now, in this human age?

JESUS GIVES YOU THE ANSWER!

After Christ fed the five thousand people with five barley loaves and two fishes, there were twelve baskets of bread left over. Everyone had more than enough. Later that evening, Jesus departed on a boat with His disciples. When Christ returned to The City of Capernaum, the people who had been fed, rushed up to Him.

John 6:27-28 ²⁷Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for the meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed. ²⁸Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?

Christ had just said to them: “²⁷Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for the meat which endureth unto everlasting life” (John 6:27). Then the people asked Jesus what must be done to do The Work of God (John 6:27-28). This was a very simple, clear question they asked of Christ. Jesus, from His own lips, gives you The Biblical answer defining The Work of God. Biblically, no other answer is True, except what The Son of God tells you. Nothing else is The Work of God.

John 6:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

Jesus answered them with these words: “²⁹…the work of God, [is] that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.”

Christ said that The Work of God is To Believe on Him (Christ). Only through Jesus can you receive everlasting Life. Only Christ tells you the exact Path you must follow – which is The Work of God. The entire reason He fed the five thousand with twelve loaves and two fishes, was to show you that Christ is “that bread.” Christ performed this miracle to reveal God’s Work to you.

I Timothy 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and

to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

I Timothy 2:4 states that it is God’s Will that every human being would be Saved, and that His Will was first performed, by His Son, Jesus (John 5:30-36). How does God, through His Son, Save everyone? You can be Saved by believing on His Son, Jesus Christ. How can this be God’s Work if Christ is The One doing The Work? That is the critical question.

WORD OF GOD

Deuteronomy 21:17 concerns The Law that God gave to explain The Purpose of The Firstborn. In Romans 8:29, Paul said that Christ is The Firstborn Son of God, and that all the rest of mankind are destined to become Sons of God.

Deuteronomy 21:17 But he shall acknowledge the son of the hated [wife] for the firstborn, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath: for he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the firstborn is his.

By God’s Law of The Firstborn, Christ received a double portion from His Father (which was The Father’s strength) to do God’s Work (John 5:17, John 3:34). Jesus was the only One who spoke The Words of God by The Power of The Holy Spirit from God, which was given to Him without measure (actually a double portion).

Jesus said that The Work of God is to believe on Him whom God hath

sent. So, Jesus speaks only The Words of God, which will give you Eternal Life. This simply means that you must believe in Christ because He speaks God’s Word. God’s Word gives Everlasting Life, which is The Work that Christ does. Then, what is The Word of God?

RELIGION AND THE WORD OF GOD

Many Christian religions believe The Word of God is another “being” besides God. In fact, some religions believe God’s Holy Spirit is also another “being.” Therefore, they present The Word of God as a being, and The Holy Spirit as a being. They have three Gods. Is this Biblical?

Others believe that The Holy Spirit is not another God, but The Power of God. They think, in the beginning, only Christ was another being with God. Now you have two Gods, which are God, The Father, and The Word of God. Just how many Gods are there? Let The Bible tell you.

I Timothy 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

I Timothy 2:5 plainly states that there is only one God. Christ, as The Word of God, is just a Mediator between God and humanity. That is what The Bible presents to you.

Since Christ was given The Holy Spirit at birth (the same Holy Spirit made Mary pregnant), The Holy Spirit couldn’t be another “being” because Jesus would then be The Son of The Holy Spirit and not The Son of God, The Father. In Luke 1:35, The Angel answered Mary, and presented The Holy Spirit as being a Power, and not a separate individual being who came from God, The Father.

John 14:17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

The Bible states that Jesus is The Son of God; therefore, The Holy Spirit couldn’t have been another “being.” The Holy Spirit is “A Power” – “A Holy Power” – which comes from God. It leads everyone to The Truth. John 14:17 states that God’s Spirit dwells in you and reveals God’s Truth. Therefore, God’s Holy Spirit is “A Power” from God, which reveals God’s Truth to you (John 17:17). The Holy Spirit cannot be another “being,” but is the very Power from God Himself.

John 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

What was The Word of God before Christ became The Word of God? Was Christ another “being” just like God? Only The Scriptures can reveal this Truth to you.

Before you study one of the critical Scriptures, which describes The Word of God, it is pertinent that you approach these verses as a little child. Remember, Christ said that you will not enter into God’s Kingdom unless you become as a little child. You cannot have pre-set ideas, opinions or assumptions. No human interpretations are allowed – Only Biblical facts and proof.

John 1:1-15 ¹In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. ²The same was in the beginning with God. ³All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. ⁴In him was life; and the life was the light of men. ⁵And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. ⁶There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. ⁷The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. ⁸He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. ⁹That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. ¹⁰He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. ¹¹He came unto his own, and his own received him not. ¹²But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: ¹³Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. ¹⁴And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. ¹⁵John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.

The Apostle John states, “¹In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” What do you know about The Word at this point? This verse reveals The Word was from the beginning; and this Word was also with God, but this Word was also, God. It does not say this Word was another “being.” Since God is One (I Timothy 2:5), the best notion that anyone can state about this Word, is that it is an Element of God Himself. This is what The Bible tells you.

“³All things were made by him;...” All things were created by God, for that is what The Word has performed. This Element of God, The Word, has The Power to create. This Word has within it The Power to produce Life. Consequently, The Word of God can be defined as the very Words from God, The Father. This Word was put into Christ at His Birth (Deuteronomy 18:18).

John, The Baptist, states that he “⁸…was sent to bear witness of that Light.” John goes on and tells you that he, himself, is not that “light,” but rather, that “Light” was sent from God (The Word), which was the “Light.”

So, The Word of God was in the beginning. The Word also created everything, had The Power to give Life, and was The Light (Truth) of The World. Above all, The Word was God – not another being. Up to this point, this is all that anyone knows about The Word. No two beings – just One God. In summary, The Word of God:

1. Created all things;

2. Gives Life

3. Is The Light of The World revealing God’s Truth.

This is all that The Bible states about The Word of God, with no second “being.” Also, realize that The Word is God’s Word. Therefore, The Word of God has to be an Entity of God Himself, and not another “being.”

Read Genesis 1:1-2. It is God, by His Word, who created all things. God’s very Words had the power to create the entire universe. Clearly, at this time, God, not Jesus, created all things, The Almighty God Himself. God did it by His very Word.

When Jesus, at His physical birth had God’s very Word put in Him, then Christ, as The Word, created all things. Once Jesus, at His birth, had God, our Father’s Word in Him, Christ then became God’s Word or The Logos. By becoming God’s Word, Jesus was, therefore, the one who created all things because He, now, at His birth, became the very Word of God which created everything.

This Light or The Word “⁹…lighteth every man that cometh into the world” (showing Salvation for everyone). Those who received The Word will become The Sons of God. “¹⁴And the Word [Greek, “logos”] was made flesh, and dwelt among us.” This Word, which became flesh (a human being), had The Glory of God, The Father. Verse 14 defines what The Word of God is. The Word of God was God’s Glory, and not another being. God’s Glory, which was The Word, was of God, The Father. The Word of God was not Christ as another “being,” and not a God before that Word was made flesh. The Bible plainly states that The Word of God was The Glory of God, Himself. When checking the original Greek word for “logos,” in Strong’s Concordance #3056, the meaning includes the notion of: “the thought,” ”reasoning,” “the mental faculty,” and “the divine expression.” Therefore, God’s Glory as The Logos is God’s thought and divine expression by The Power of God’s Holy Spirit.

John 17:5-10 ⁵And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. ⁶I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word. ⁷Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee. ⁸For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me. ⁹I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. ¹⁰And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.

Jesus explains what this Glory is in John 17:5-10. Christ asked God to give Him The Glory He had with God in the beginning. What was this Glory (The Word of God)? Verse 5 states that this Glory was from The Father Himself, not from another “being.” This Glory that Jesus had from the beginning was The Word of God that was given to Christ at His birth (John 3:34). Christ became The Word of God at His Birth by The Holy Spirit. In fact, this Glory (God’s Thought or God’s Message), which is from God, The Father, will, also, be in you, through Christ (John 17:10). Christ was The Rock that followed Israel because, before Jesus’ Birth, The Word of God, God’s Glory, was The Rock, which was to become Christ (I Corinthians 10:4). In the Hebrew, it is called “The Shekinah,” or “God’s very Presence” which includes “God’s Word” and “His Thoughts.”

GOD’S GLORY

In John 6:29, Jesus was asked the question about what is God’s Work? Jesus answered and said unto them, “²⁹This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he [God] hath sent.” God had sent Christ to do The Father’s Work. Christ was not sent by another God “being” to do God’s Work. God Himself sent Christ to do His Work. This was God’s Glory, which is The Word of God. How was this done?

Deuteronomy 21:17 But he shall acknowledge the son of the hated for the firstborn, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath: for he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the firstborn is his.

“¹⁷But he shall acknowledge the son of the hated [Wife] for the firstborn, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath [God has] for he is the beginning of his [God’s] strength; the right of the firstborn is his.”

Since Jesus is The Firstborn Son of God, The Law of Moses states that The Firstborn is to inherit a double portion of God’s Strength, or God’s Glory (which was The Word of God, and which was God). God gave a double portion of His Strength to Christ, so He could do The Father’s Work. Christ, before He was human, was in God’s Thoughts or Word, which became Jesus at His Birth. God’s Word was in Christ at His Birth, and Christ, therefore, became The Son of God. Since Jesus became, The Word, The Logos, at birth, Christ, therefore, created all things, since He now was God’s Devine Words and very Thoughts.

John, The Baptist explains what The Word of God is, and how Christ received The Firstborn’s Inheritance.

John 3:34 For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him.

Notice, Christ at His physical birth, received the Father’s Words, not His own words as pre-existing. John said that Christ only spoke God’s Word, and had received a double measure of God’s Spirit. That is how Christ inherited the double portion from His Father. God’s Holy Spirit was given to Christ at His Inception. God’s Holy Spirit caused Mary to become pregnant through God’s Spirit. God’s Holy Spirit gave The Word to Jesus; therefore, He could speak God’s Words. The Word of God as defined by “The Scriptures” represents God’s Personal Words from The Father’s Mind (God’s Thoughts – Psalms 40:5) concerning what wonderful things God is doing through His Son – who now is The Word of God.

CHRIST AND THE FATHER’S WORK

Jesus answered The Pharisees and The Sadducees after they complained about Him working on The Sabbath day when He healed someone.

John 5:17 But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.

Christ said that He and His Father Work. What type of Work is performed? Christ answered that question. In Matthew 18:11 Jesus said, “For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.”

I Corinthians 15:21-26 ²¹For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. ²²For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. ²³But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming. ²⁴Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. ²⁵For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. ²⁶The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.

Jesus is doing The Work by bringing every person to Salvation. Christ is Restoring The Tree of Life as it was in The Garden of Eden. Jesus will destroy death, which will be the last enemy. No one will remain dead. Ultimately, everyone is Saved. But every man must be Saved “…in his own order….” (I Corinthians 15:23). This is The Work that Jesus is doing through, and by God, by means of His Father’s Holy Spirit.

JESUS QUALIFIES

The Apostle Paul said that Jesus was being made perfect, and as a consequence, Jesus became The Author of Eternal Salvation. This means that Christ had to qualify first, as The Author of your Salvation (Hebrews 5:9). Also read Revelation 5.

Christ has to Restore Life to The Whole Human Race. How is this done? It begins by He, being made Perfect.

Hebrews 10:5-10 ⁵Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: ⁶In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure. ⁷Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me), to do thy will, O God. ⁸Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law; ⁹Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second. ¹⁰By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

Paul quotes these Scriptures from Psalm 40. These texts prophesy The Christ coming to do God’s Will by offering His Body as a sacrifice for everyone. How does Christ perform The Father’s Will to become that sacrifice?

THE TEST

Jesus came to Save that which was lost in The Garden (The Tree of Life). He first had to destroy “the works of Satan.” Remember that Satan is the god of this world. So, by defeating Satan “Spiritually,” Christ proves that He is, indeed, your Savior and Redeemer. After Jesus was baptized by John, God, His Father, declared that this man is His Beloved Firstborn Son (Matthew 3:17). Afterward, Christ went into the wilderness to be tested by the devil. In the wilderness, Christ fasted for forty days and forty nights. Then, Jesus became ravenously hungry (Matthew 4:1-2). After forty days, one can only try to imagine the state of total exhaustion that Jesus, in the human flesh, felt without food and water. But Jesus had to fast in this manner, to prepare Himself to qualify, humanly, in order to win His contest with Satan. The Bible states that Jesus was “…an hungred.” (Matthew 4:2). This “an hungred” really means “to pine away,” or “to starve.”

There is an extremely important Spiritual point at this juncture. The test was whether or not Christ was The Word of God. Since Jesus was given God’s Spirit without measure, and spoke The Words of God (John 3:34), Christ was tested by Satan. Christ proved that He was truly The Word of God (God’s Son). Indeed, this was a universal test for all of God’s Creation (Romans 8:22). It is by The Word of God, literally God’s Words that were put into Christ, beginning at His birth, which, will ultimately happen to everyone (I Corinthians 15:28). God is reproducing Himself by His Words, The Word of God that will be in you, according to your growth, at your designated time frame. Christ, therefore, will be in you.

Since God is reproducing Himself to procreate Sons and Daughters, all who are Saved, including Jesus Christ, and the rest of mankind, must come from The Father, Almighty God Himself. The Word nor The Holy Spirit could not have been separate beings along with God, The Father.

For God to reproduce Himself by having Sons and Daughters, all mankind must come from God, The Father, directly just as Christ did, or you have nothing but confusion. That is what a family is.

HOW CHRIST Won OVER SATAN

What did Satan use as his weapon to attempt to defeat Christ? Satan used God’s Word, which is more powerful than a two-edged sword (Hebrews 4:12). Christ’s first test was over food! In that ordeal, Jesus purposely allowed Himself to become desperately hungry by abstaining from food and water for forty days and nights. He was prepared for the test.

What did Satan ask Christ?

Matthew 4:3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.

What was Christ’s answer? In Matthew 4:4, Jesus said: “It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.”

Jesus proved that The Word of God was in Him from birth. He truly was The Word of God. He was The Son of God. That was the test; and Jesus passed and qualified. Now with His ongoing Life, He had to live The Word of God and fulfill every Scripture written about Him (Mark 14:47-49). It’s God’s Devine Thoughts, The Logos, in Christ which proves He is The First Begotten Son of God.

In John 14:8, Philip, His disciple, said, “…shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.” Then Jesus answered:

John 14:9-11 ⁹Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? ¹⁰Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. ¹¹Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works’ sake.

Before Christ was taken to be crucified, He told Philip that he would know who The Father is by seeing Him (John 14:8-8). Why is this? Jesus said that He did not speak His “Words,” but rather that He spoke The Father’s Words – or The Word of God – which was in Christ from birth (John 3:34). This is how Jesus defeated Satan. It was by speaking The Words of God, and by doing the works of God’s Word. That is why Christ said that you must live by every Word of God. God’s Work is His Word, which is in His Son. Jesus Christ is The Word of God.

PROOF CHRIST WAS THE WORD

Many believe that Jesus came to give His Life for your sins. This is True. Jesus defeated Satan by proving that He was The Son of God. He was Living every Word, which proceeded from the mouth of God. He was The Word of God in The Flesh.

John 14:10 states that God’s Work is the same as God’s Word. Jesus said He did not speak His own Words, but He did speak everything that The Father told Him.

Christ said in John 14:11, “¹¹Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works’ sake.” Watch how Christ Lives – so that you can believe His Works. What was Christ’s Work? His Work was to Live Every Word of God. Jesus said that the proof that The Father is in Him, is by watching Him Live Every Word of God.

To reveal Jesus was God’s Son, He had to live His Life according to The Scriptures. But He also had to Live and Experience every Scripture that was written about Him. At the time of Christ, The Old Testament was the only Scripture. In Psalms 40:7, David prophesied about Christ. David quoted from God’s Book written in God’s Thoughts. “Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me.” This refers to Christ in the Future as a “human being.” Apollos was a mighty Biblical Preacher. He publicly showed by means of The Scriptures that Jesus was The Christ (Acts 18:28).

Furthermore, Acts 13:29 Paul said when Christ was hung on the tree and crucified – that everything that was written in The Scriptures about Him was fulfilled. In His human Life, Christ fulfilled everything that was written about Him in The Word of God.

Remember, Jesus said that if you didn’t believe that He and The Father are One, then believe The Works that He does (John 14:11). What was His Work? Jesus lived by Every Word of God and thereby proved He was The Son of God – because when He died, He had fulfilled every Scripture written about Him. Jesus is The Son of God!

MOSES WITNESSES THE WORD OF GOD

It is evident that The Scriptures prove The Word of God is equated with God’s very Words. In Psalms 40:5-7, David states that God’s Words are written in The Bible from God’s Thoughts (verse 5). God’s Thoughts cover all of His Plans and Purpose about Christ and eventually – you.

Jesus said that Moses accused The Pharisees and The Sadducees of his day (John 5:45-47). Why was this? It was because Moses wrote about Christ and said that Israel should believe the coming Messiah, Jesus Christ.

John 5:45-47 ⁴⁵Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust. ⁴⁶For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me. ⁴⁷But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

Read what Moses said about Christ.

Deuteronomy 18:15-18 ¹⁵The Lord thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken; ¹⁶According to all that thou desiredst of the Lord thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of the Lord my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I die not. ¹⁷And the Lord said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken. ¹⁸I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.

GOD IS THE WORD OF GOD

Who is The Word of God? God is. That is exactly what John 1:1 states. Moses clearly states that Christ is The Word of God and only spoke God’s Words (Deuteronomy 18:18). Genesis 1:1-2 also states God, The Father by His Word, created everything.

For Jesus to be The Son of God, He had to defeat Satan by Living Every Word of God that was written about Him. He had to be sinless, and finally offer His Body as a Sacrifice for your sins.

Jesus Christ is truly your Savior and Redeemer. But He is “The Author of Your Salvation” because He Lived Every Word that came from God. He, as The Word of God, is doing God’s Work as His Son. As The Firstborn, He is the beginning of God’s strength, which is God’s Word through The Power of The Holy Spirit.

The pre-existence of Jesus was not in the form of another “God being,” but as The Word of God, which was God’s Glory (John 1:14). God’s Glory is The Word of God as administered by God’s Holy Spirit, which became Christ, the human man. This “Shekinah” is God’s Presence in Thought, and is The Power of The Holy Spirit of God, The Father.

To deny The Word of God as God, The Father’s Words coming from God Himself, is to deny God is The One doing The Work. God, by His Word or Glory, works in His Son, Jesus, just as He works with each Christian, and eventually, all mankind. God will be “All and in All” (I Corinthians 15).

God gave to Christ, His Son, His Firstborn, His Holy Spirit, and His Word. The Apostle John warns that anyone who doesn’t believe Jesus came as a human being is anti-Christ (I John 4:1-3).

God’s Work is to reproduce Himself in everything (I Corinthians 15:28). God is reproducing Himself by His Son, Jesus. Jesus is God’s Firstborn Son receiving God’s very Words in Him by The Power of God’s Holy Spirit. This is The Work that God and His Son, Jesus, are doing. They are fulfilling The Very Words of God, for you to have Eternal Life.

WHY CHRISTIANITY CAN’T BE A RELIGION

A RELIGION

Are you shocked reading the title of this chapter? This is a subject that few people have encountered. Yet, there it is in bold capital letters: WHY CHRISTIANITY CAN’T BE A RELIGION. How can this be? It certainly is a radical claim. Surely, most everyone to whom you speak would think that Christianity is indeed a religion. But, here you are now witnessing a reverse claim. It is the exact opposite of what people would naturally think. How could Christianity NOT be a religion? It seems absurd. Are you prepared for the surprising answer to this paradox?

ELEMENTS OF THE WORLD

Something stood in the way of New Testament believers who wanted to receive The Gift of Sonship from The Almighty God. It was something quite serious that was getting in the way of progress. Consequently, The Apostle Paul took decisive action, so that these newly Called-Out Ones (Ecclesia or The Church) could become Sons of God. The Apostle Paul knew that he had to reveal The Truth about something that was getting in the way, and preventing a successful outcome.

Paul shows that Christ came to deliver mankind from certain elements that were holding back some of the early disciples from realizing the goal of Sonship. This restraining influence was designated by Paul as: “…the elements of the world:…” (Galatians 4:3). What are the elements of the world?

An overall perspective about these elements can be obtained by reading the full context of Galatians 4:3-7. Paul showed the importance of discerning the difference between: “…in bondage under the elements of the world…” (verse 3), when it is contrasted with the primal objective for The Saints which was to receive: “…the adoption of sons…” (verse 5). This is the vital Sonship in question. In other words, by this process, they would become “…an heir of God through Christ” (verse 7).

So these “Elements of The World” are getting in the way. You may ask, “What are these elements?” Many Bible students and teachers just pass right over these important Scriptures regarding “The Elements of The World.” Some teachers merely dismiss this short phrase as being only a “worldly” matter of some sort but not having much significance. Yet this topic was very important to The Apostle Paul.

Whatever these “Elements of The World” may be, according to Paul, they are something sinister. They are something that can hinder a disciple of Christ’s to such an extent that he or she might even miss out on the

promised Sonship under discussion in these texts.

That is why every disciple of the teachings of Jesus needs to divide The Word of God more cautiously just as Paul told Timothy: “….rightly dividing the word of truth” (II Timothy 2:15). This is what the Bereans did, in order to see “…whether those things were so” (Acts 17:11).

ELEMENTS DEFINED

Strong’s Concordance, #4747, “stoicheion” for “elements” means, “something orderly in arrangement.” It signifies “a rudiment” or “a human orderly system.” In this case, Paul is discussing these “elements” or “orderly arrangement” as they are based upon “…Law…” (Galatians 3:23, 4:5). Then, this Law becomes the fundamental basis for religious effort. It is religion based on Law.

Of course, this outlook appears logical in one sense. In other words, this created system deals with human nature in a logical fashion. But there is one thing it cannot do. It cannot change human nature. So, whether you might like to admit it or not, this practice led to the formation of a religious system that was based upon human effort (works). You can study any human work-oriented, disciplinary system of religion, and perceive a simple step-by-step sequence of logic in it from the human standpoint. This is “Works.”

But it leaves out one vital thing – Christ. He is The Only One who is able to change human nature. It may begin with teaching, but it also employs supernatural help. This comes through The Holy Spirit.

The Greek language introduces a general perspective about this form of “Works.” But it does something else. It shows the relationship to Christ who delivered you from all efforts that are part of any “human religious systems.” Now, this system served a purpose for a period of time. But it was not to last forever. Something superior would replace it.

Consequently, Paul described the system this way: “…the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith” (Galatians 3:24). So the “Schoolmaster” or “The System,” brings you back to the main introductory subject, which is: “…The Elements of The World…”. There were certain elements that were in the world – and of the world – that made up a certain kind of “schoolmaster.” Some wanted to continue with this schoolmaster. They couldn’t seem to function on the new system based on freedom in Christ.

Why does this situation exist? It is because not enough people have come to see that these physical “elements” are “worldly” – and that they require human effort to keep them going. However, you cannot become a Son of God by means of any kind of “Works.” You can only become a Son of God, through Christ, by God having begotten you by His Holy Spirit. Keeping a human religious system that is based on human effort does not, and cannot do this.

MANY CALLED

Jesus Himself stated: “For many are called, but few are chosen” (Matthew 22:14). He could not have stated the situation any plainer. It means what it says. Many are called but few are chosen.

In the Greek language, the word for “church” is “ecclesia.” It is the same as saying: “The Called-Out Ones.” The Church is composed of all those who will be part of Christ’s Wedding. The Wedding has The Groom (Christ), The Bride (Church), and The Guests. The Bride and The Guests are all humans who are written in The Lamb’s Book of Life (Revelation 21:27). Those not found written in The Book of Life will be thrown into The Lake of Fire (Revelation 20:15). The point is that only a few are chosen – not the many. Not everyone gets to come or are invited to the wedding.

Since The Church or Ecclesia, refers to The Called-Out Ones, as a group, they will not all be going to The Marriage Feast of The Lamb. Only a few are The Chosen for this. So, if you become part of The Church, it does not automatically mean that you will be the ones who are The Chosen for The Wedding. Why not? You can even get an invitation, but if you are not dressed properly, you are not allowed to attend.

HOW RELIGION DEVELOPED

The genesis of all religious systems began with Cain and Able. From Cain, paganism developed into a multitude of heathen systems of religion. Why were they called pagan? It is because God had nothing to do with them (Romans 1:21-25). Paul said that God allowed these people to do these things, because after they had known God, they started to worship “the creation” rather than The Creator. The Bible states:

“…when they knew God; they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened” (Romans 1:21).

This was the beginning of paganism. It was the basis for the concept of religion that developed into thousands of different sects – which were based on human reason without The True God. In other words: “…God gave them over to a reprobate mind…” (Romans 1:28). From this original descent from The Truth, people of the world built their own religious systems. Naturally, the citizens of these societies were required to practice these religions in order to belong.

Now, on the other hand, Cain’s brother, Abel, was different. He started to build a human religious system that was predicated upon what he thought would be acceptable to God.

Genesis 4:1-7 ¹And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord. ²And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. ³And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the Lord. ⁴And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the Lord had respect unto Abel and to his offering: ⁵But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell. ⁶And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen? ⁷If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? And if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.

The main point of this story is that God accepted Abel’s offering, which was a firstling from his flock. But God did not accept Cain’s offering of fruit, from his garden. Why not?

The Bible does not give a record of God’s reasons for doing this, but it may have been because Abel’s animal sacrifice pointed to Christ (hinting, also, of the death of the animals that provided clothes for Adam and Eve in The Garden) whereas the fruit of the ground did not. The main point is that Cain started a human religious system. But God was pleased only with Abel’s approach, and attitude.

Around 3,000 years later, David declared that God never required sacrifices or offerings. This would mean that Abel’s sacrifice was not a requirement of God (Psalm 40:6-7) although it is stated the sacrifice pleased God.

FIRST HUMAN RELIGIOUS EFFORT

Cain was the first in human history to be involved with starting a human-effort-religious-system. Cain was thwarted. He became angry, killed his brother, and then went to The Land of Nod to create his own pagan religion. After the flood, Nimrod, Cain’s descendant (The Tower of Babel), continued this pagan system (Genesis 11).

However, under Abel, men called on The Name of God. After Abel died, Seth was born as his replacement. When Enos, the son of Seth was born: “…then began men to call upon the name of the Lord” (Genesis 4:26). This was the beginning of The Church, or The Called-Out Ones of God (Romans 10:13).

Under Seth, his descendants sought to please God by calling upon His Name. Under Cain, who created a totally pagan system, his descendants did not call upon God. Cain’s human-based religion has continued down to this very day.

King David announced that, in reality, God never intended for any human system of religion to get started – except the one which Christ would come and institute. Christ would put God’s Law in your hearts (Psalms 40:7-8). This is the main objective – not external conformity through “law-keeping.”

In other words, God does not want His future Sons to follow a human religious system requiring human effort on his or her part. What God wants are Sons who have His Laws written in their hearts – or literally – His Laws become part of their very nature (Romans 2:14-15).

CHURCH IN THE WILDERNESS

From the time of Abel, to Seth and then to his son, Enos, men called upon The Name of God. They were The Called-Out Ones, or The Church, as they were seeking – and were accepted by – God. God’s Church (The Called-Out Ones), continued after the flood, up through the time of Noah’s son, Shem.

Finally, you have the arrival of Abraham from the line of Shem. He became the father of The Abrahamic Covenant, because Abraham believed and trusted in God – to the extent that he was willing to offer up his son, Isaac. This became a major basis for the prophesied Promise of Grace through The Messiah. Abraham was a type of God who offered His own Son.

Now, consider the contrast more carefully. Pagan religions are without the true knowledge of God. Also, they do not call upon God, but rather continue to develop their own human religious systems. This process continued until the arrival of Christ.

Through Isaac, his son Jacob was renamed Israel. This man, Israel, was the father of twelve sons, who later grew into The Nation of Israel. God brought them out of captivity in Egypt – and then the entire host became known as: “…the church in the wilderness…” (Acts 7:38). In other words, Israel was God’s Church in The Wilderness, by being The Called-Out Ones of God. When they sinned a great sin, it was like a great rebellion. God had to give them The Ten Commandments at Mount Sinai. They showed that they didn’t want to obey – even though they had promised to do so (Deuteronomy 5).

Instead, Israel constructed a golden calf, and then worshipped it – breaking The First Commandment. God wanted to kill them, but Moses intervened, and God spared them. He gave them The Law (Torah), which would eventually bring them to Christ. This is like “the schoolmaster” that was discussed earlier. After they sinned against The Commandments, God added The Statutes and Judgments (Deuteronomy 5 and Malachi 4:4). Now they could come to The Temple and be judged.

Israel (God’s Church) did not understand how The Works of The Law were intended to bring them to Christ. Neither did they understand how it showed they needed to Repent. Instead, they believed that by keeping the legalism of The Law, they would somehow become righteous – and therefore, be acceptable to God, as His Church. When God’s people sinned, God instituted the Do’s and Don’ts of The Law, The Statutes and Judgments or Works. Much like a schoolmaster making them write a 100 times, they will not do whatever they did which was wrong. (sinned)

Eventually, God hoped they would be sorry for sinning and repent – but they never did. But, all God really wanted was for Israel to keep God’s Ten Commandments IN THEIR HEARTS (Deuteronomy 5:29).

When Jesus came to this earth, the Israelites rejected Him as being their Messiah. This was because they misunderstood The Purpose of The Law. They thought the keeping of The Letter of The Law was an end in itself – to please God – rather than to bring them closer to an attitude of Repentance for their misdeeds. If done properly, this would have brought them to Real Repentance (Romans 5:20).

God wanted Repentant People who had experienced a change of mind and heart. God wanted His Law to be in their hearts – and not by human effort or Works (Romans 2:28-29). To be acceptable to God, one must have a complete change of heart.

Any religious system, whether (1) pagan, or (2) that of following The Letter of The Law, is not enough. No one is acceptable to God until one’s heart is Right with God. Any human effort performed by Works that you do in order to please God, cannot, does not, and never will please God.

When Christ came, and Israel rejected Him (by not repenting), God allowed His Son Jesus, to become A Sacrifice for The World (I John 4:14). This was done by allowing The Gospel (or Promise) that was made to Abraham to accomplish the task of opening “The Door of Salvation” to The Gentiles. This was The Gentiles’ first chance to become Christians.

WORLD SALVATION

Always remember the basic underlying Truth that Jesus came to Save The Whole World (I John 4:14). When Judah, the last tribe to remain in the land, rejected their Messiah, the inhabitants of Judaea were scattered throughout the world. This was the beginning of “The Diaspora,” or The Great Dispersion.

Jesus prophesied that The Temple would be destroyed (John 4), and from that point on, the people would worship God only by Spiritual means. It would never be through the Works of The Letter of The Law or any other pagan religious system. God’s Truth is a way to learn a Perfect way of Life, not an organized religious system.

In 70 A.D., when Titus destroyed The Temple, The Old Covenant ended (Hebrews 8:13). Access to God ended with Judah’s unrepentant state (rejecting Christ). Without The Temple, there was no longer “a court” to administer God’s Law. Access to God through the administration of The Letter of The Law was completely finished. There was no longer a religious system to bring Judah to Christ.

God changed the “Called-Out Ones” from “The Letter” to “The Spirit.” No Temple was needed. Now, only Repentance is required for a person to be in God’s Church. It is the acceptable method of pleasing God.

THE NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH

In Ephesians 2:11-15, Paul explained how a basic change took place. At one time, The Gentiles were without God, but by means of Christ removing the veil to The Mercy Seat in The Temple, The Gentiles now had access directly to God. There was no need of a Temple, nor was The Law necessary. Even the priesthood had changed from Levi to Melchizedec.

Now, The Law became a Spiritual matter (II Corinthians 3:6). This New Covenant required no effort, no Works, no religious system to please God (II Corinthians 3:17). From this point on, as Christians, no religious system (human effort) would ever be acceptable to God.

PURE RELIGION

In James 1:27, The Apostle taught that the only religion God would accept would be a pure and undefiled one. Nothing you may accomplish by your “Works” will make you acceptable to God. Christianity is not a religion – rather it is A Way of Life. It is the way that one should follow God’s Son, Jesus.

In John 14:6, Christ said that He is The Way, The Truth and The Life. Being a Christian is A Way of Living. It is not a religious system of humanity trying to please God by thinking they are somehow “righteous” by following (1) The Law, or (2) any other religious system of human Works.

The word “pure” in the Greek means “clean” or “undefiled.” Any human effort to become righteous would not be acceptable to God – because you are unclean in your nature and your flesh.

With your human nature, you cannot please God, no matter how hard you try. This is because any human being is too weak to ever keep all of The Law perfectly. No matter how good you may try to be, it is not good enough. One must be truly righteous or perfect. For this reason, you cannot live a pure and undefiled religious Life. God declares that the only human Works He will accept are as follows:

1. Don’t judge others,

2. Help those in need, such as widows and orphans, and

3. Don’t follow what the world does.

These are the only Works or Deeds that humans can do which will please God. No other religious effort is required. One good summary from The Old Testament is: “…what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? (Micah 6:8).

ISRAEL MISUNDERSTOOD

The Apostle Paul wrote instructions to The Believers at Rome so they could increase their understanding that Christianity was not a religion based on human “Works.” Please read Romans 10:1-6 thoroughly. Paul said that although Israel had a zeal for God, they believed they could please God by keeping The Letter of The Law. By so doing, it was “Israel’s righteousness” and not God’s. Verse 4 clearly states that Christ is The End (or aim) of The Law. The Letter of The Law was a step towards bringing them to Repentance (Romans 5:20).

If Israel had repented, they would have received mercy, and would have been forgiven their sins. But, they refused, and Christ turned to The Gentiles – The Law was a Spiritual matter (John 4, II Corinthians 3:6).

By God writing His Law in your hearts and minds, you will grow in God’s Righteousness – and it will not be by means of any human effort or religious system. I John 3:4, “…sin is the transgression of the law…,” defines what sin is. But, The Apostle John goes on to enlarge upon this definition.

CHRISTIAN SIN

John gives you the complete definition of sin very clearly. John said: “All unrighteousness is sin” (I John 5:17). Jesus explained the definition for sin, and the “Christian Life” that is a must for being Saved. It’s all there in The Sermon On The Mount. Please read Matthew 5, 6 and 7 completely.

Christ said that if a man were to look upon a woman with lust, it is already adultery in his heart. If you covet your neighbor’s goods in your mind, you are already a thief. Any unrighteousness for a Christian is a sin, even if only in your mind (or heart). God’s Righteousness is a matter of The Heart – and not The Letter. The Letter is futile because it changes nothing and it certainly doesn’t change anything in any person wanting to be a Christian.

Only by God’s Holy Spirit in you, can a person experience the renewing

of your heart and mind. This is all that pleases God (Romans 12:2). No religion is acceptable to God, but only those who have Christ working in them by God’s Holy Spirit. Only this will please your Father, God (Colossians 1:27).

IMPORTANT MESSAGE

This came to Me by an E-mail so I thought I'd share this pricless message with each of You today ! catcmo2006

Will you give this to my Daddy?
As a Company, Southwest Airlines is
going to support "Red Fridays."
Last week I was in Atlanta , Georgia
attending a conference. While I was
in the airport, returning home, I heard
several people behind me beginning
to clap and cheer. I immediately turned
around and witnessed one of the
greatest act's of patriotism I have ever
seen.
Moving thru the terminal was a group of
soldiers in their camo's, as they
began heading to their gate everyone
(well almost everyone) was abruptly
to their feet with their hands waving
and cheering. When I saw the
soldiers, probably 30-40 of them, being
applauded and cheered for it hit
me. I'm not alone. I'm not the only red
blooded American who still loves
this country and supports our troops and
their families.
Of course I immediately stopped and
began clapping for these young unsung
heroes who are putting their lives on
the line everyday for us so we can
go to school, work and ho me without
fear or reprisal. Just when I thought I
could not be more proud of my country or
of our service men and women a
young girl, not more than 6 or 7 years
old, ran up to one of the male
soldiers. He kneeled down and said "hi,"
the little girl then she asked
him if he would give something to her
daddy for her. The young soldier,
he didn't look any older than maybe 22
himself, said he would try and what
did she want to give to her daddy. Then
suddenly the little girl grabbed
the neck of this soldier, gave him the
biggest hug she could muster and then
kissed him on the cheek.
The mother of the little girl, who said
her daughters name was Courtney,
told the young soldier that her husband
was a Marine and had been in Iraq
for 11 months now. As the mom was
explaining how much her daughter,
Courtney, missed her father, the young
soldier began to tear up. When
this temporarily single mom was done
explaining her situation, all of the
soldiers huddled together for a brief
second. Then one of the other
servicemen pulled out a military looking
walkie-talkie. They started
playing with the device and talking back
and forth on it. After about 10-15
seconds of this, the young soldier
walked back over to
Courtney, bent down and said this to
her, "I spoke to your daddy and he
told me to give this to you." He then
hugged this little girl that he had
just met and gave her a kiss on the
cheek. He finished by saying "your daddy
told me to tell you that he loves you
more than anything and he is
coming home very soon."
The mom at this point was crying almost
uncontrollably and as the young
soldier stood to his feet he saluted
Courtney and her mom. I was
standing no more than 6 feet away from
this entire event unfolded. As the
soldiers began to leave, heading towards
their gate, people resumed their
applause. As I stood there applauding
and looked around, their were very few
dry eyes, including my own. That young
soldier in one last act of
selflessness, turned around and blew a
kiss to Courtney with a tear rolling down his cheek.
We need to remember everyday all of our
soldiers and their families and
thank God for them and their sacrifices.
At the end of the day, it's good
to be an American.
RED FRIDAYS ----- Very soon, you will
see a great many people wearing Red
every Friday. The reason? Americans who
support our troops used to be
called the "silent majority". We are no
longer silent, and are voicing
our love for God, country and home in
record breaking numbers. We are not
organized, boisterous or over-bearing.
We get no liberal media coverage on
TV, to reflect our message or our
opinions. Many Americans, like you, me and
all our friends, simply want to
recognize that the vast majority of America
supports our troops.
Our idea of showing solidarity and
support for our troops with dignity
and respect starts this Friday -and
continues each and every Friday until the
troops all come home, sending a
deafening message that.. Every
red-blooded American who supports our
men and women afar will wear
something red. By word of mouth, press,
TV -- let's make the United States on every Friday a sea of red much
like a homecoming football game in the bleachers.
If every one of us who loves this
country will share this with acquaintances, co-workers, friends, and
family. It will not be long before the USA is covered in RED and it
will
let our troops know the once "silent" majority is on their side more
than ever, certainly more than the media lets on.
The first thing a soldier says when
asked "What can we do to make things
better for you?" is...We need your
support and your prayers.
Let's get the word out and lead with
class and dignity, by example; and
wear something red every Friday.
IF YOU AGREE -- THEN SEND THIS ON
IF YOU COULD CARE LESS THEN HIT THE
DELETE BUTTON --- IT IS YOUR CHOICE.
WE LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE, ONLY
BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE.
THEIR BLOOD RUNS RED---- SO WEAR RED EVERY FRIDAY!
--- MAY GOD HELP AMERICA TO BECOME ONE NATION, UNDER GOD.
HAVE A GREAT DAY.

Chuck Pierce: "GOD IS RE-ENLISTING HIS ARMY AGAIN--DO NOT FEAR WHEN HE SHAKES THE FOUNDATION!"

Chuck Pierce: "GOD IS RE-ENLISTING HIS ARMY AGAIN--DO NOT FEAR WHEN HE SHAKES THE FOUNDATION!"
"I will begin breaking open a seal of Heaven that will cause the earth to change drastically. "
Prophetic Word of the Lord
Below is a prophetic word that came forth during one of our recent Tuesday morning prayer meetings and I believe this is a key word for the Body of Christ. This is a time of re-enlistment. This is a season of anointing.
Go Up Again!
"I AM breaking the power of passivity from My people! Go up! Go up again! Go up again! Go up again! Go up again! Though the enemy has stopped you and numbed your spirit in the past season, I AM anointing you to 'Go up again.' I AM lifting you from under the piles of defeats that have caused you to be quiet and passive. Though you have been buried with work, distractions, and circumstances, I AM removing the layers of sod and decay that have held you captive."
"Go up again, go up again, go up again! The wind is blowing in the trees, and I AM sending a sound in the treetops. Get ready to go up again! Come from behind, catch up, and go up again! I have brought you from behind, and you shall hear the sound I give the trees...the breeze will be your sign to go up again...go up again, get hold of your emotions and go up again. Even though the enemy has mounted up again, I AM sending a new wind. Catch the wind and go up again! This new wind will become your new mantle."
"I AM redefining your enemies. You will go up again! You will shout, 'This is my assignment now. This is what I am called to do.'"
"Though the enemy has advanced and made headway with an adverse wind, I AM bringing you up to a new place, to equip you. When you go up again, you will face your enemy with My new wind, and the enemy will not win again."
"Even if you have fallen because of relationships or blocked supply, or have been confused over your purpose and vision...I say, 'YOU WILL GO UP AGAIN.' Catch the wind and go again...reach down, reach down to My power that is within, catch the wind and go again, reach down, reach down, reach down for new strength I've placed within...reach down, rise up and go again."
Do Not Fear the Quaking
"Though My people have been anointed before, the next anointing I AM bringing My people is an anointing that will be known as 'YOUR FEAR WILL LAUGH.' This anointing will cause you to proceed to a new place of breakthrough. This anointing will cause your enemy to become alert against you, to rise up and become alert. I AM allowing your enemy to surround you because I have a strategy for you to go up again against the enemy. Hear the wind, find your path in the midst of the fray, and go up again. Victory is sure!"
"Do not fear the quaking, for it is a sign that I AM getting ready to reach in, pull up, and reach down again. Even though the enemy and legalism have arisen in the land, now I AM causing a people to reach up, grab My hand, and stand up again. This is a nation that will quake. In the middle of the quaking, I will begin breaking open a seal of Heaven that will cause the earth to change drastically. "
Do not fear when the Lord shakes the foundation.. .do not fear when it quakes...do not fear when the Lord shakes the foundation.. .do not fear when it quakes for you were standing on unsure ground with an unstable future. But the shifting of the plates of the earth and the gifts of the earth for this age, in this season, will create a major shift in administrative systems.
A Revolutionary Sound is Rising
"I AM seating the court of Heaven, and the court of earth will reflect that which is in Heaven."
"The shaking will cause a different sound to arise in the peoples. A revolutionary sound is rising in this land. That sound will be heard and call many into place. Different peoples will align; the ethnos groups are aligning in the House of Prayer. A new sound is arising in the Church and there will be One Man worshipping. Heaven is beginning to respond to the earth's cry. This cry will get louder and louder until the enemy's voice is silenced for a season in the earth."
"There are undercurrents flowing, and there is confusion and 'workings' in the midst of My plan. I say the enemy is working a work to attempt to stop that which I AM sending forth in this hour. But I say that in the midst of an undercurrent, I'm creating a people who can stand. Above the swirl of the enemy's camp, I will ride on the wings of the wind, I will ride on the wings of the wind. Above the swirl of the enemy's camp, I will ride on the wings of the wind, I will ride on the wings of the wind."
"I will execute true justice; I will release mercy and compassion. Brother will rise up again with brother, sister with sister, and we will move out and possess this land. We will ride and possess this land, we will move and possess this land, we will move and possess this land…generation with generation, the old and the young will move as one, old and the young will move as one."

"A new alignment is happening in cities. Do not allow the accuser to accuse you over the past. Do not allow the accuser to stop you from moving forward. Do not allow the accuser to say, 'In the past you tried that and it didn't work.' For I AM bringing a new anointing that will create a new method and a new way for you to go. I AM seating the court of Heaven, and the court of earth will reflect that which is in Heaven. This is a new measure of rule coming to My people."
"I AM breaking the generational fear structure that robbed a generation of boldness. I AM removing a fear base. Fear has been passed from generation to generation. But three generations will arise and catch this new wind to go up again. You will feel as if you have had surgery, for I will remove a root of fear so you can go up again. You will begin to say, 'Again the Word of the Lord has come to me.' Decree that the Word of the Lord will come...again the Word will come. Not the word you've heard in the past, but a Word again; the Word will come and you will say that I AM hearing a God in Heaven who is refreshing and giving me boldness."
"Again, the Word will come. Again, I AM birthing the next dimension of revelation. You have endured and pressed through, so I will now come again! I AM ready to bring My Word. I AM becoming zealous again! My zeal has arisen again! My fervor is rising in you again!"

I Am Re-enlisting My Army
"My Seed will prosper again! I AM RE-ENLISTING MY ARMY AGAIN. From your past faith demonstrations, you have gained the right to be in My army. Because of the cares of the world, you have left your post. I AM calling you again to re-enlist. Old men and old women will dance in the streets and aisles of My places of gathering. A new call is coming and MY people will prosper again!"
"I'm calling forth again those that have gone forth in the past. I AM putting them in My ranks again. I'm calling them in again. I'm fanning their flame again. For this is a day of re-enlistment, for the wind is blowing again. Because the wind is blowing again, I AM re-enlisting My people. I'm putting the staff in My people's hand again. The old men and the old women are now receiving the staff again."
"The old men and old women will begin to dance in the streets with the young men and women and girls and boys. This will create a new rule, and Zion will be established in the earth in a new way. Those who have gone before, stretch out your hands again, for I AM putting a new staff in your hands and will cause you to hear My voice in a new way. I AM redefining your call. The generation that's rising can dance in the streets and exhibit new faith."
"Just like Caleb, who was 80 years old when he really started to rule--reach out your hands and take up that staff again. I AM redefining your gift and sending you out again. The old and new will become dance partners. The old and young will rejoice together. I AM re-enlisting My troops and I will give re-enlistment bonuses in the earth, for the wind is blowing. I AM calling My people again. Rise up and follow Me into victory. Lift up your feet, lift up your feet, lift up your feet, lift up your feet."
"Though unity was thwarted in the last season and the enemy came in like a flood, I AM re-enlisting My troops, and I will bring forth what I had planned. That which I have spoken will not return void to Me. I will stir up My people with a new anointing and a new strength will blend together, and My army will rule the streets of their nations."
"Grab hold of the new staff I AM extending. Let your hands be strong; let your hands be strong. For the words the prophets have spoken, though they've lain dormant and have not blossomed, I say let your hands be strong, for I will be activating Words and accelerating My purposes. This season My Word is coming forth! Don't get left behind. My Word is coming again. Rise up again! A righteous man falls seven times and gets up. So shake off your words and arise again."
A Day of Re-building
"I AM repairing the foundation.. .I AM leveling out that which was crooked."
"I will build My House again. The old and the young will shout together. It will be a sound that has not been heard in this season. This is a day of re-building and completing what was begun in one generation. Though the foundation has been shaky and the people have been divided, and the world has drawn many away, now I will build My house again! For I AM repairing the foundation, and I AM lifting up that which has sagged. I AM leveling out that which was crooked and today I start the process."
"For the wind is blowing again, and even though you have met each other and met Me before, now you will meet Me in a new way and see each other the way that I see you. Let go, let go, the things of the past, let go, let go the things of the past, and catch the new wind blowing forth!"
"I AM re-enlisting; hear My call and receive your bonus as you come forth!"

Possessing Your Inheritance is a key book for this hour (which you can order below), and one of the best chapters on breaking generational iniquity is included in the book.

My Testimony

Hello Everyone; I thought that I would give this testimony of how things had taken place in my very own life. Some of things has been left out of it. Some of these things You could read between the Lines and to know it in a heart just as if You had been there taking these simliar things as a next person that had gone through it as well themselves.I had often times felt that I had already gone world world 3. I'm only saying this because of me growing as a very small baby I had love some people very much they had done all the things that parent could do for them from infantcy until almost an adolecent. From the time that I was a child I had thought that those was my parent until one day some cold hard fact and truths came creaping out of my momma. She was stern and i knew what she meant and what she said was gospel.But she loved me just the same for being a foster momma to me. I watched her go through so many trials and heartache in her life and she cried and had been hurt by a husband whom had left us to be with another woman and her already made family. My momma did all those things that a parent could and wanted to do as a mother. She worked and I went to school like any other young child. Of course I acted up badly when I had lived with my precious momma, but I was sort of a mean kid whom had done alot of things that I ought not and should have done. But the one or perhaps many things about her just made me feel like it was always home to me even til the day she passed away. (Years later). She loved me and showed me how to do things in a home, like most momma's do she gave me spankings but it wasn't nothing like my real mother would do. They were so very different as day is to night. My thoughts just never left my momma. You know being with the very brutal side of my real parent will never be forgotton because in the home it was world war 3.It was horrible that at times I just speak of the horrors that went in that place.I later in years found out the real reasons all of those means and ways she had done alot of things which makes a person like I was so bitterly confused, beaten, raped, and almost killed not only by my real mother but her husband too. I'll never forget what it done to my own soul is like living in hell with fire torching me all of the time, day and night was never a miss.They had thier parties that lasted into the wee hours in the mornings every weekend I knew i was in hot water again, just because she would run off from being mad at him. I hated those times because I knew what I was in for every time that would happen.Some of my own family member was just like him and did those simliar thing to me.Only 2 of my siblings made so many efforts for me to live with them but to No avil.Everytime I'd get something nice for those holidays it would get ripped into pieces while the other kids got to keep what they had.After a while I really didn't care about anything anymore! They taught me to be just like them and I lost myself ! I just didn't know me anymore.Her hubby used to call me out to his garage filled with his favorite pop as I watched him pour his drink, i'm not going to say anything more about that horrible person in that kind of manner. A few of his own family members was just the same.Some of them as well did thing's in like manner for they are sibling that was older than I . I got so tired of those things and after awhile I was like being under a very heavy doeses of anesthesia that I never came out of from being in that place. Everything about me was No longer there! I left that place and right out in the streets and never looked back at that place again for many of years.I was someone like in Germany my husband has shared with me about those brothels that's lined up for many a blocks. It's all I knew how to do and run with the seedy people whom was just like me and thugs,mobsters. I got caught up with people that most people didn't want to cross over if they wanted to stay alive for the most part, or if they owed a favor yet in turn it wasn't good either.Well drugs, alcohol, kept me up and down for most of those years. I had so many problems that it never gave me a clue. Emotions was high going from one place to another even with scooter people whom hung out at all of those places. For the most part they helped me along my years, then I'd back away and find me another crowd to hang out with, it didn't matter how rich you might of been at the end of those nights was a shadow at your expense. Oh, I've have had relationships and marriages even children came out of some. I never thought I'd stop in living like the way I was. It never entered my mind at all, nor would anyone would bring up in helping to see something different in how to stop and detour my life.Oh at times I went back and had seen my momma and she always loved me just like it never ever stopped. I hid alot of things from her that never enter any other converstion except to be a good girl.I had lost two kids in what had happend in the way I lived my life and some of them from the x's and people whom had tons of money whom ruled the world and towns of which we lived. I couldn't fight it and I lost something that was so precious to me. It had me even tighter and I never knew what to do. But stick my thumb out and hit the trails onward I went to my feet hit home again. By then mother person died in her life..I never never ever said that he ever was a personof a father figure at all! So that pretty much how it was back then for me. Until one night and being seperated once again, I had went to someone home and relaxed like I always did with people I knew very well. That night was just a peek of what terrible things that had taken place in my world. I was literally thrown into a car and they had taken me to an abandon house and beat the daylights out of me and raped me and tried to kill me that horrible night that lasted till early morning.For some reason I said a get me out of here prayers, I then saw something liked I'd never ever seen before in my entire life and I've never forgot it till this day. It was a figure liked I've never seen before but the funny part about it it was missing a face while it was there! Oh it white and hands like a real person has on one glossy set of hands and you could see right through it. And a golden crown . Now, that amazed me like never before! Then I saw this figure waving those hands to come this way but it stumped me because I didn't know where those men were in the house. I looked around to see where they were in that place. I wiped away the blood on my face so I could see somewhat better. As I looked again that person or thing was still waving at me to come unto them. I was frightened and didn't know what to expect! So I just got off that floor and headed out the window and that things or person that I had seen just flet like it guided me what I then seen was a huge drop to hit the ground. As I did my ankel twisted and I somehow got back straight and ran until I found a apt. building and ran inside. I knocked on door and a another man came to the door and I at once covered myself up and passed out on the floor. Just as You already know where I woke up at and to see just the very fact I was ALIVE! I had lost the court case and to my suprise from what I had found out they did it again to someone much younger than me. That was 2 weeks later after the courts. I went into treatment and left that town simply because my hubby didn't like the fact that I been done by the other race. I went through tons of help back then and under a shrink for so many years, It was hard but I kept after it so I could do what was told to me so I could get better. I went through secular programs and I did so much better and even had a child come back to me, then another one which was a suprise. Even tried to always make things work and had all of those emotions sticking out so very badly. It got so bad that my old self came back to me and I literally stabbed someone . Oh, it finally hit me after one of my very heavy drunks that I really needed some help . I went cold turkey and got off those meds that nearly killed me during that time. Later I moved to another place and tried to do things a little differently. I had my scooter buddies that I had met but this time they we not like those in times past. They began to share me about a man called jesus in which I had only heard about as a child and never believed! But they shared with me that whole weekend and I found a pastor in that town and began searching for more. They had a quaint little place which was half resturant, and church. But I got saved that year of 1997. I still another person around whom had made more drugs and I left at the pastors request and on my way out of town he nearly ran me over with his semi-truck in that pouring rain storm but than God I made it to where I was going. I found my self heading to a hospital early the next morning at my best friends advice. She went to school and if I hadn't been home she knew where to come find me. As it turned out I had died and came back and I knew it was the Lord, My savior whom brought me back. There's more to this story that just blows my mind to this day simply because of that happeneing to me this very day. Oh, Yes I had to re-learn everything over again, just as if I was a very sm. child. I had some long talks with the Lord and cried many tears unto Him only to see for my self that those where trials from Him to see if I ment it or wanted to turn back to the old me.But I didn't thank You Jesus! I kept hanging on like i've never ever did in my life. Some of those people were not nice people at all, they was crude and very abnoxious in all those hateful words and cussing at me, walking all over me just as if I had been standing still.But my precious Jesus and I kept praying and communicating with one another and I went to church and they helped me too. But the cold hard facts is Jesus Christ whom got me through it until this very day. I had sugery this year on memorial day weekend over the stuff that happened to me back then. But You know what ? He always told me that he would never ever forskake me. He never did and I know and truly believe it with all my heart today.He is still helping me to learn all the more about Him ... I'm so very thankful unto my precious Jesus for showing me His ways for me to live in and all my cares goes unto Him today.Every time I go though His fires of His many test. One more time he molding me more unto Him to be just as he in the likeness in doing my best in leaving more of me in this old very horrible nasty old world.I left my sins where it all needs to be in His glorious righteousness and it is where it absolutley stays for me and being in the one whom is the almighty God. Now I'm doing my best in Him in leaving old teaching of those religious people behind in still having our close relationship in Him together as I want it more and more in my life forever more til he takes us home to be in that new Jerusalem. I just don't like still be corruptable in front of him. I know that he's destroyed alot of the old me.I know that I still get mixed up at times but He's helping me through it all! Today I get tired so easily and have to rest when my body tells me too. But that's ok because when I get up... I am with Jesus and helping others the best that I can, My husband and I have opened our home to people whom are in this world today. But after they get through asking questions about our faith, they stop right in those tracks and try to not do what they themselves need to do and try to mouch and be like the devil himself ! Then we share with each and every one that they need some help at first to get out of those damned up emotions, then try Jesus as they go through it all but they refuse all things and out the door they go. Then the next one apprears and it never has stopped here in our home. We keep sharing the word with them one after another.We too, live on a fixed income that don't help any at all except for the medical. Food is very low here at our home, we go to the food pantries, and often times to one family member to have them give us a meal or two. But then we help people out in a church when I can help in sacking up food in bags, and clothing pantries as well. That's how our life is for us as we depend on our heavenly daddy. AND HE takes care of us, we've seen how the Lord bring us money to pay these bills, and car, and food unto us and protects us through these storms that comes through out town. I can never say enough about our Jesus! At least not so much in words as it is in tounges is where it's between he and I only. We truly trust Him in every kind of condition that comes our way in being in him.The idols are gone and all is left is JESUS today.That my sisters & brothers is the way it is here. I know I didn't mentioned alot of other things but in general You get the message, others that know me daily know all of those missing parts of my life. catcmo2006 Thank You for allow in this site,group sites, web sites and other prayer sites as well in holding one another up for prayer's being totally united in everyone around this world, it's about Jesus Christ first and prayers,intecessory prayer's and at other times about this vast world we live in today which this old world as we all know it is slowly departing to be reaching our home in glory.
