MYTH #25

WATCHING FROM UP ABOVE-THE WORLD TRIES TO MAKE OTHERS THINK THE DEPARTED CAN WATCH US FROM HEAVEN. SOME THINK THE DEPARTED ARE SITTING UP IN HEAVEN WITH JESUS AT THE MOMENT THEY DIE.  NOT TRUE!  WHEN PEOPLE DIE, THEIR SPIRIT DOESN'T GO TO HEAVEN.  THE DEAD WAIT FOR THE RAPTURE UNTIL THEIR SPIRIT CAN ASCEND UP INTO HEAVEN. ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE, FIRST THE LIVING WILL ASCEND UP INTO HEAVEN AND THEN THE DEAD. (REV. 20:12-13, ) IT IS TRUE EVERYONES' SPIRIT GOES UP TO HEAVEN. CHRISTIANS WILL GO UP IN A RAPTURE, NON-CHRISTIANS WILL BE SEEN ON JUDGMENT DAY.

　

WHEN SOMEONE DIES, THEIR SPIRIT STAYS WITH THEM UNTIL THE RAPTURE. A GOOD EXAMPLE OF THIS TRUTH IS WHEN JESUS WAS RESURRECTED. THE BIBLE SAYS MANY WHO HAD GONE TO SLEEP (DEAD) CAME BACK TO LIFE AT THAT SAME TIME. (MATT. 27:52) IF THE SPIRIT HAD LEFT THEIR BODIES, THIS WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE. PAUL HAD A VISION AND WAS "LIKE" A DEAD MAN, HE WAS "NOT" A DEAD MAN. (IICOR. 12:1-6) SOME PEOPLE TAKE THIS SCRIPTURE OUT OF CONTEXT IN REGARDS TO DEFINING WHAT HAPPENS TO A PERSONS SPIRIT UPON DEATH. THERE ARE MANY WHO SAY THEY'VE DIED AND CAME BACK TO LIFE. THIS DISPLAYS THE SPIRIT NOT LEAVING THE BODY UPON DEATH THEORY. THE SPIRIT IS NEAR THE BODY, MAKING IT EASILY ACCESSIBLE FOR "WAKING" UP AGAIN.

DID YOU REALIZE THERE ARE TWO RESURRECTIONS? (REV. 20:5) THAT'S ANOTHER TOPIC. IT'S NOT A MYTH, BUT A THEOLOGICAL ISSUE. SOME BELIEVE IN PRE-TRIBULATION OTHERS BELIEVE IN POST-TRIBULATION. SOME THINK A) NO RAPTURE HAS OCCURED B) OTHERS THINK THE FIRST RAPTURE HAS OCCURED. THAT'S ALL FOR YOU TO DECIDE ON YOUR OWN.

MYTH #24

ALL CHRISTIANS ARE GOING TO WALK THE STREETS OF GOLD-NOT TRUE!  
CHRISTIAN, DON'T LET SATAN FOOL YOU. NOT EVERYONE WHO SAYS THEY'RE A CHRISTIAN IS GOING TO HEAVEN AND STAYING UP THERE. ALL WHO BELIEVE IN JESUS BEING THE SON OF GOD WILL HAVE THE RAPTURE. THE FINAL DETERMINATION FOR REMAINING IN HEAVEN IS ON JUDGMENT DAY. ON THAT SPECIAL DAY JESUS WILL DECIDE WHETHER A CHRISTIANS' LIFESTYLE ON EARTH MERITS ETERNAL LIFE OR HADES. (REV. 20:12-13)   A GOOD PARABLE IS THE SHEEP AND THE GOATS. (MATT. 25:31-46)

MYTH #23

A GOOD CHRISTIAN BELIEVES EVERYTHING THEY HEAR

IT'S NOT SIN TO DISBELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU HEAR. A CHRISTIAN ISN'T CALLING A PERSON A LIAR, THEY ARE ONLY EXERCISING WISDOM. THE BIBLE SAYS A CHRISTIAN IS TO BE "WISE AS A SERPENT, BUT AS HARMLESS AS A DOVE." A CHRISTIAN IS TO TRUST GOD DURING A TIME FOR WISDOM, WALKING IN LOVE WITHOUT ACCUSING THE OTHER PERSON. WHEN A CHRISTIAN STARTS TO ACCUSE A PERSON, THEY HAVE BECOME SATANS' TOOL. (REV. 12:10) A CHRISTIAN HAS TO MAINTAIN SELF-CONTROL AND AVOID ANY NEGATIVE COMMENTS OR THOUGHTS. UPON PRAYER THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL EXPOSE THE TRUTH. AT THAT TIME, THE CHRISTIAN CAN MAKE A DECISION BASED UPON GODS' TRUTH.

FOR EXAMPLE: GOD TOLD ME WHEN I WENT TO ISRAEL, TO BE CAUTIOUS OVER THE TOUR GUIDES. HE SAID "DON'T LISTEN TO EVERYTHING THEY SAY." DOING AN EXEGESIS ON THE WORD "LISTEN" FROM THE HEBREW WORD MEANS: TO TAKE INTO HEART (EMBED INTO YOUR INNER BEING AS TRUTH) WITH FULL COMPREHENSION. I UNDERSTOOD WHAT THE HOLY SPIRIT SAID WHEN I VISITED THE COUNTRY. THE BIBLE SAYS MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL. THE INCOME FROM TOURISM HAD CAUSED VARIOUS FORMS OF DECEPTION ABOUT JESUS IN ISRAEL.

　

WHILE VISITING THE PHILIPPINES SOMEONE TOLD ME AN APOSTLE HAD BEEN THERE, AND NAMED THE BOOK OF PHILIPPIANS AFTER THEM. THIS PERSON SAID THEY GOT THE INFORMATION FROM SOMEONE IN THE PULPIT. THIS IS NOT TRUE. I DIDN'T CALL THE PERSON A LIAR TO THEIR FACE. I ANSWERED WITH A LOVING TONE, AND SUGGESTED FOR THEM TO READ THE INTRODUCTION IN THE BOOK OF PHILIPPIANS.  THIS IS A GOOD EXAMPLE OF WHY I SAY IT'S WISE FOR CHRISTIANS TO DO AN EXEGESIS. CHRISTIANS ARE SMART TO LOOK UP EVERYTHING THEY HEAR AND DO THEIR OWN BIBLE STUDY REGARDING THE TEACHING.

 

MYTH #22

　

WEAR BLACK-MOST PEOPLE THINK THEY SHOW RESPECT BY CRYING OVER THE DEPARTED.  THE WORLD TEACHES PEOPLE ARE TO WEAR BLACK AND CRY WHEN SOMEONE DIES. THIS IS A FORM OF LEGALISM. THEY DID THIS WHEN JESUS WALKED THE EARTH. IN THOSE TIMES, THE RICH WOULD PAY PEOPLE TO COME MOURN OVER THEIR DEAD. SCRIPTURES SAY THE DEATH OF A CHRISTIAN IS PERCIOUS IN GODS' SIGHT. (PS. 116:15) THE WORD OF GOD TEACHES YOU CRY FOR A BIRTH AND REJOICE IN A DEATH. (ECCL. 7:1) KING DAVID CRIED FOR HIS SON DURING THE CHILDS' SICKNESS. UPON THE CHILDS' DEATH, KING DAVID REJOICED AND ATE. (IISAM. 12:21)

IN MODERN CHRISTIAN CIRCLES, EVERYONE GRIEVES FOR THE CHILD BORN INTO A WORLD OF SIN AND OFFER UP PRAYERS. A CHRISTIAN IS TO CELEBRATE A PERSONS' DEATH FOR THEY'VE LEFT THE WAYS OF SIN ON EARTH. MANY MODERN CHRISTIANS HAVE A PARTY NOT A WAKE. CHRISTIANS WEAR FESTIVES COLOR AND HAVE MUSIC AT THE PARTY OF THE DECEASED. THEY REJOICE THEIR LOVED ONE HAS LEFT THE BATTLEFIELD AND HAS GONE TO REST IN THE LORD. THESE PEOPLE KNOW DEATH IS NOT A GOODBYE FOR THEIR LOVED ONE. THESE CHRISTIANS REALIZE THEY'LL SEE THEIR LOVED ONE UP IN HEAVEN FOR A REUNION.

MYTH #21

MANANA! MANANA!-THE WORLD SAYS IT'S OK TO DO EVERYTHING "MANANA."  PEOPLE LIKE TO PUT THINGS OFF UNTIL TOMORROW, OR THE NEXT DAY, OR THE NEXT...  THE BIBLE TEACHES IT IS SIN TO PROCRASTINATE. DO NOT PUT OFF TOMORROW, WHAT YOU CAN DO TODAY. (PROV. 3:27-28) A LITTLE FOLDING OF THE HANDS...LEADS TO POVERTY. (PROV. 6:10-11&24:33-34) DO THE ANGELS SIT AROUND AND DISCUSS WHAT GOD HAS COMMISSIONED THEM TO DO BEFORE THEY DO THEIR TASK?

MYTH #20

IT'S ONLY A JOKE-THE WORLD IS KNOWN FOR GIVING A ROAST TO A PERSON OF HONOR. WHEN SOMEONE RETIRES, THE PLACE OF BUSINESS WILL GIVE THEM A WATCH, A ROAST LUNCHEON AND A RETIREMENT CHECK. THE ROAST IS FILLED WITH SARCASTIC REMARKS ABOUT THE PERSON, REFLECTING ON SPECIFIC EVENTS IN THEIR LIFE. THE WORLDS' "APRIL FOOLS" HOLIDAY IS CONSISTENT WITH THE SARCASM THEME. THE HOLIDAY IS ROOTED IN TRICKERY AND DECEIT AND IS NOT OF GOD. (PHILI. 4:8) SOME CHRISTIANS SPEAK WITH SARCASM AS A JOKE. SARCASM IS NOT A FORM OF HUMOR. SARCASM IS A FORM OF HATRED AND IS CONSIDERED A SIN.

　
JESUS SPOKE TO HATE SOMEONE IS LIKE COMMITTING MURDER. (MATT. 5:21-22, IJOHN 3:15) THE BIBLE TEACHES TO GIVE RESPECT TO A PERSON BEING ACKNOWLEDGED FOR A POSITION OF HONOR. A GOOD EXAMPLE IS THE WEDDING FEAST PARABLE IN LUKE 14:7-11. IN CERTAIN SECULAR CIRCLES SEATING POSITIONS INDICATE A PLACE OF HONOR. THUS THE PHRASE "THE BEST SEAT IN THE HOUSE." ANOTHER ONE IS THE PRODIGAL SON IN MATT. 15:11-24. EVERYTHING WAS DONE IN A PROPER WAY TO SHOW RESPECT FOR THE RETURNING HEIR.

　
THE FOLLOWING IS AN ARTICLE, LAUGHTER, INCLUDED IN MINI SERMONS VOLUME I REGARDING HUMOR.

LAUGHTER

God has commanded us to be joyful "Count it all joy that your name is written in the Lambs' book of life." We are to find a joy in our salvation. When you understand what has happened, you rejoice with all your heart. God is pleased at you being His vessel, as you give a sacrificed life to Him. You find a pleasure in making Adonai happy. When you know how special you are to God, there is a joy in everything you do. You are free of meeting societies standards. God wants you to find joy and gladness in all the bad. If you "love God and live according to His purpose" you can't help but get good out of any bad situation. God promises what satan has planned for evil, He will use for good. All a christian has to do is praise God for His will to be done. We are commanded to not be fretful, anxious, or worry over anything. Research shows it causes high blood pressure and heart problems. If you make yourself rejoice, offering a praise and petition to God in all things, you lose stress. The blood flows better to your brain cells and brings a healthier viewpoint. You are a light to the world, keep your joy at all times. You may win a soul for Christ with a joyful countenance. When the Israelites returned from Babylon, they were filled with laughter and their tongues with singing. Make yourself happy to keep your deliverance in a situation. Or to keep the first love you had for Jesus in your life. When someone yells at you - laugh or make a joke of it. The person will realize how ridiculous they are for getting angry; and that you are not afraid of them. Some Christians speak with sarcasm as a joke. Sarcasm is not a form of humor, it is a form of hatred. April Fools and magic is not of God, it is rooted in trickery and deceit. If God wants to create something, He performs a miracle and does the real thing. Please realize Abrahams' chosen seed was named Isaac, which means Laughter. Isaac was appropriate because there is nothing too hard or wonderful for the Lord. Isaac brought joy to Abraham and Sarah, for their son was a miracle. Make yourself joyful 'cause you have a God who does the impossible.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

MAY YOU FOLLOW THE BRIGHT AND MORNING STAR - JESUS - EVERYDAY!


 

MYTH #19

 



 

CHRISTMAS IS TO BE A TIME FOR CHRISTIANITY. SANTA HAS BECOME A POPULAR FIGURE AT CHRISTMAS TIME. HOW SAD! DID YOU REALIZE SANTA HAS THE SAME WORDS AS SATAN, ONLY MIXED UP. SATAN USES THE SANTA CLAUS IDEA TO TEACH CHILDREN ABOUT GREED. THE CHILDREN LOSE SIGHT ABOUT GODS' LOVE AND CONCENTRATE OF HOW MANY GIFTS THEY GET. THEY START TO THINK LOVE DEPENDS ON MATERIAL BELONGINGS AND NOT ON THE SPIRITUAL RICHES OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD. 

SATAN IS ALWAYS TRYING TO TAKE THINGS AWAY FROM GOD. THERE HAS BEEN A CONSTANT BATTLE OF GOOD VERSUS EVIL FOR CENTURIES. JESUS SAID SATAN CAME TO MAIME, KILL AND DESTROY. ANYTHING NICE IN THE WORLD, THAT CAN ILLUMINATE GOD, SATAN WILL TRY TO DESTROY. I'VE SEEN THAT AS I TRAVEL AROUND THE WORLD.

　
AN EXAMPLE IS WHEN I WENT TO ZIMBABWE. A BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY WITH ONE OF THE 7 NATURAL WONDERS OF THE WORLD. THE NATURAL WONDERS ARE MAGNIFICENT BECAUSE THEY SHOW THE HAND OF GOD WHEN HE CREATED THE EARTH. SATAN TRIED TO HURT ZIMBABWE THROUGH THEIR FOOD AND MONEY A FEW YEARS AGO. I PRAYED FOR GOD TO HEAL THE COUNTRY PRIOR TO MY ARRIVAL TO SEE THE VICTORIA FALLS. GOD ANSWERED MY PRAYER FOR ZIMBABWE. WITHIN A FEW MONTHS PRIOR TO VISITING ZIMBABWE, GOD BROUGHT AN END TO THE FOOD AND MONEY ATTACKS. I HATE SATAN!

　
SATAN WILL TRY TO BRING DECEIT INTO A CHRISTIANS' LIFE AS HE PREPARES HIS ATTACK. HE DID THIS IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN WITH EVE. THE BEST WAY FOR A CHRISTIAN TO AVOID ATTACKS DURING THE HOLY SEASON IS TO STAY ALERT. A CHRISTIAN CAN ALWAYS ASK ONE IMPORTANT QUESTION FOR WHATEVER THE CHRISTMAS DISPLAY OR ACTIVITY IS ABOUT. DOES THIS LINE UP WITH PHILIPPIANS 4:8? (LET YOUR THOUGHTS BE PURE, TRUE, LOVELY, RIGHT, NOBLE, ADMIRABLE, HOLY AND UPLIFTING TO GOD.) IF THE ANSWER IS YES, THEN THE ITEM IS GODLY.

　
MAY YOU KEEP YOUR EYES ALERT OVER THE CHRISTMAS SEASON.


NOTE: PLEASE LOOK UP WHAT I SAY. I AM ACCOUNTABLE TO GOD AND DON'T WANT ANYONE DEPENDANT ON ME. DON'T MAKE ANYONE IN THE WORLD A HERO. USE THE BIBLE TO FIND YOUR HEROES.

MYTH #18B

THE LOVE OF JESUS IS DEFINED IN THE BIBLE AS BEING NICE BUT STAYING WITHIN THE CRITERIA OF AN UNCONDITIONAL LOVE WITHOUT SIN. AS A CHRISTIAN WE ARE COMMANDED BY GOD TO SHOW NO MERCY TO THE FALSE GODS. (JOSH. 11:10-20) PSALM 1 INTERPRETS THE LOVE OF JESUS AS NOT BEING PARTIAL TO ANOTHER PERSONS' FAITH, OR IN SUPPORT OF THEIR SINS. (IIJOHN 10-11) THE BIBLE INSTRUCTS A CHRISTIAN TO NOT BE RUDE OR HAUGHTY IN ICOR. A CHRISTIAN MUST FIND A WAY TO SPEAK/ACT IN A MANNER OF LOVE WHEN THE UNSAVED WANT TO DISPLAY THEIR SIN, WITHOUT PARTAKING IN THEIR SIN. THE WORLDLY MAY SPEAK ABOUT CANE & ABLE, AND OF NOT BEING THEIR KEEPER NOR JUDGE. PLEASE REALIZE SOMETIMES A CHRISTIAN MUST SPEAK UP TO DEFEND THEIR OWN SALVATION, AS WRITTEN ABOUT IN EZEK. 33:6. THIS MAY GO AGAINST BEING COURTEOUS ACCORDING TO WORLDLY STANDARDS. AT THIS TIME, A CHRISTIAN HAS TO KEEP IN MIND GODS' PERSPECTIVE AND SEE THEMSELVES AS GOD DOES. THIS WAY THE CHRISTIAN WILL REALIZE THEY'RE THE ONES WHO ARE BEHAVING PROPERLY. A KEY TO STAYING VICTORIOUS: DO NOT LISTEN TO THE WORLDS' DEFINITION OF "LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF." JOSHUA 11:10-20 AND PSALM. 1 AFFIRM A CHRISTIAN IS TO REALIZE THE WORLDS' DEFINITON OF LOVE/KINDNESS DOESN'T CORRESPOND WITH THEIR STANDARDS. A CHRISTIAN CAN'T CONSIDER THE WORLD AS A "NEIGHBOR" FOR THEY'RE NOT ON THE SAME PLANE. (ADAMIC NATURE VS. CHRISTLIKE NATURE)

MYTH #18A

MY BROTHERS KEEPER!-THE WORLD TEACHES A PERSON MUST ALWAYS BE COURTEOUS. THERE ARE CERTAIN IDEALS ACCORDING TO THE WORLD THAT TEACH HOW TO BE NICE. WHEN SOMEONE SPEAKS UP ABOUT ANOTHER PERSONS' FLAWS, THE WORLD CONSIDERS IT BEING RUDE. A CHRISTIAN HAS TO HAVE WISDOM IN UNDERSTANDING WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BEING NICE AND WHAT IS THE LOVE OF JESUS. BEING NICE TO SOMEONE IS SHOWING A SMILE AS YOU DRIVE BY OR A FRIENDLY "HELLO!" THAT'S THE WATERED DOWN VERSION OF THE LOVE OF JESUS.

MYTH #17B

 

THE CULTURAL WAY FOR A MAN TO OPEN A DOOR FOR A LADY IS A DISPLAY OF THE BIBLICAL MALE AND FEMALE ROLES. THE BIBLE TEACHES THE MAN IS TO BE AS CHRIST AND THE WOMAN AS THE CHURCH. (EPH. 5:22-29) THE MAN IS TO PROTECT AND GIVE UP HIS LIFE TO THE WOMAN AS JESUS DID ON THE CROSS. THE WOMAN, IN TURN IS TO SUBMIT TO HIM AS THE BIBLE TEACHES CHRISTIANS OBEY JESUS. AS THE MAN IS TO BE THE PROTECTOR, HE OPENS THE DOOR. THIS ALLOWS HIM TO ENSURE THE SAFE PASSAGE WAY FOR THE FEMALE ACROSS THE THRESHOLD. THE WOMAN, AS TO BE THE SUBMISSIVE PERSON, ALLOWS THE MAN TO PROTECT HER PASSAGEWAY. ANY WOMAN WHO HAS CAUGHT THEIR HEEL ON A CLOSING DOOR, WILL AGREE THIS IS A GOOD IDEA.

MYTH #17A

CHIVALRY IS DEAD-THIS IS NOT TRUE IN CHRISTIAN CIRCLES. CERTAIN PRINCIPLES THAT TEACH HOW TO BE COURTEOUS ACCORDING TO THE WORLD, ARE HIGHLY RESPECTED BY CHRISTIANS. SOME OF THESE PRINCIPLES ENCOURAGE A WOMAN TO BE THE FEMINIME NATURE AND THE MAN TO BE THE MASCULINE NATURE. THIS ENFORCES THE ADAM AND EVE IDEAL IN GENESIS 3:14-19. THE WOMAN HAS CHILDREN AND CARES FOR THE HOME,, WHILE THE HUSBAND IS THE DEFENDOR FOR THE HOME AND GETS THE FOOD. THE CULTURAL WAY FOR EATING DESCRIBES THIS STORY. THE WIFE (AS A CARETAKER) COOKS THE MEAL FOR DINNER AND BRINGS IT TO THE TABLE. ONCE UPON THE TABLE, THE HUSBAND IS TO SERVE THE FOOD TO EVERYONE SEATED FOR DINNER. THE MAN, WHO HAS HUNTED THE GAME BY EARNING A PAYCHECK, IS THE ONE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE PUBLIC RECOGNITION BY SERVING AT THE DINNER TABLE.

MYTH #16B

FOR EXAMPLE, I SAY "HOLY DAY" BECAUSE THE WORLD SAYS "HOLIDAY." THE WORLD TEACHES A HANDSHAKE IS A SIGN OF FRIENDSHIP; THE WORD OF GOD INSTRUCTS TO DO SOMETHING ELSE. THE BIBLE TEACHES "GIVE A HOLY KISS" TO SHOW THE LOVE OF JESUS. (ICOR. 16:20, IICOR. 13:12, IPET. 5:14) A HOLY KISS IS A HUG. THE PROPER WAY TO GIVE A CHRISTIAN HUG IS:

1) REACH FORWARD TOWARDS EACH OTHER

2) TURN THE BODY SIDEWAYS FROM THE SHOULDERS DOWN, OPPOSITE OF THE HUGGING PARTY. THIS WAY YOUR BODIES DON'T TOUCH AND DOESN'T OFFEND THEIR SPOUSE.

3) SOME CULTURES KISS THE PASTOR ON THE CHECK WHILE GIVING A HUG. THE KISS CAN BE ON ONE CHEEK OR BOTH CHEEKS, DEPENDING ON WHAT COUNTRY YOU'RE IN.

4) MOST IMPORTANT: THE LOVE OF JESUS IS PURE AND A HOLY KISS IS GIVEN IN PURITY.

　

CHRISTIANS ARE TO BE COURAGEOUS AND STAND UP AGAINST THE WORLDS WAY OF LIVING. WHEN SOMEONE OFFERS THEIR HAND, A CHRISTIAN IS TO STAND UP FOR WHAT THEY BELIEVE - IN AND OUT OF SEASON. LET THE PERSPECTIVE HANDSHAKER KNOW ABOUT A "HOLY KISS." PLANT SEEDS FOR JESUS AND GIVE THEM A HUG. YOU MAY WIN A SOUL FOR CHRIST.



WHILE VISITING IN CERTAIN COUNTRIES, GOD HAS SHOWED ME GIVING A "HOLY KISS" IS POWERFUL. THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO COME ACROSS A CHRISTIANS' PATH THAT AREN'T OF THE SAME FAITH. THESE PEOPLE CAN BE CARRYING GUNS AND KNIVES. WHEN A CHRISTIAN HAS EXTENDED A HUG TOWARDS A PERSON, THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS TOLD THEM "I TRUST YOU AND AM NOT AFRAID OF GETTING CLOSE TO YOU." THE INDIVIDUALS MAY NOT WANT TO THINK OF THEIR WEAPON WHILE IN YOU'RE PRESENCE. THUS THEY HAVE NO INTENTION OF HARMING YOU. THE LOVE OF JESUS HAS MELTED THEIR HEARTS.

INTERNET PRAISE REPORT

SOME MAY WONDER ABOUT HOW EFFECTIVE THE INTERNET IS FOR MINISTRY. THE FOLLOWING ARE TESTIMONIES OF THE POWER OF GOD OVER THE INTERNET.
ANSWERED PRAYER PRAISE REPORT:
ON MARCH 3, GOD BROUGHT FORWARD A PRAYER REQUEST-
"hi dear i have run a sunday school in Pakistan please prayer for me so that i could provide books and not books to sunday school child"
MY RESPONSE-
I WILL TRUST GOD TO MEET YOUR NEEDS. HE IS JEHOVAH JIREH.

　
ON MARCH 8TH GOD TOLD ME TO CHECK BACK-
　
HAVE YOU RECEIVED ANY BOOKS?

　
THEIR RESPONSE-
just Holy bible books

　
ALLELUIA! ANSWERED PRAYER. IN THE USA BIBLES ARE USED FOR HISTORY AND ENGLISH BOOKS IN THE SCHOOL SYSTEM. PEOPLE TELL ME IN OTHER COUNTRIES, THE BIBLES CAN BE USED FOR TEACHING HOW TO WRITE THE ENGLIGH LANGUAGE. THIS EMBEDS THE WORD OF GOD AS A PERSON LEARNS IN VARIOUS ASPECTS.

WORD OF KNOWLEDGE PRAISE REPORT
ON NOVEMBER 3, GOD GAVE A WORD OF KNOWLEDGE
I READ IN THE NEWS OF AN EARTHQUAKE IN A COUNTRY AND GOD TOLD ME TO SEND A MESSAGE:
"X" MADE THE NEWS TODAY WITH AN EARTHQUAKE. ARE YOU OKAY?

　
THEIR RESPONSE:
WE ARE AFFECTED, I HAD CUT,IN MY SHOULDER,CAUSE OF TEMBER FALLING FROM THE BUILDENG,HAVE USED NAILS HIT, MY SHOULDER PLEASE PRAY FOR MEDICATION
GOD HAD GIVEN ME A WORD OF KNOWLEDGE BY TELLING TO CHECK IN WITH THE PERSON TO SEE HOW THEY WERE DOING. I WAS HEARING THEY NEEDED PRAYER AND WANTED VERIFICATION BEFORE PRAYING. AFTER THEIR RESPONSE I PRAYED A MIRACLE FOR THEIR HEALING. GOD HAD ME FOLLOW-THRU IN DECEMBER AND THEY INFORMED ME OF BEING HEALED   BECAUSE GOD GAVE ME A WORD OF KNOWLEDGE FOR THEIR PRAYER NEED, YAHWEH HAS USED THIS TO ENFORCE THEIR FAITH. 

THEIR RESPONSE IN DECEMBER:AMEN THANK YOU VERY MUCH REV. CAROL FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT, I ALMOST LOST MY HOPE, BUT GOD IS SOO GOOD,,,
GOD, YOU SEE MY HEART AND KNOW I SAY NOTHING FOR ME.  IT'S ALL FOR YOU.  I GIVE GOD THE GLORY FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE.

MYTH #16A

HANDSHAKES-A POPULAR WAY FOR SHOWING FRIENDSHIIP IN THE WORLD IS TO GIVE A HANDSHAKE. SOME PEOPLE TEST A PERSON BY A HANDSHAKE. A GOOD HANDSHAKE WILL BE FIRM AND SHOW AN INDICATION OF A SECURE PERSON. THE LIGHT HANDSHAKE IS CONSIDERED A SIGN OF INSECURITY. IN SOME CIRCLES, A HANDSHAKE CAN BE CONSIDERED A LEGAL AGREEMENT. IN PREVIOUS GENERATIONS, THE LAW ACCEPTED A HANDSHAKE AS A LEGALLY BINDING CONTRACT BETWEEN THE PARTIES INVOLVED. THIS IS TAUGHT IN BUSINESS LAW, BUT ISN'T A GENERALLY ACCEPTED PRACTICE ANYMORE.

　

JESUS TEACHES FOR US TO LIVE IN THE WORLD BUT NOT BECOME A PART OF THE WORLD. A GOOD SCRIPTURE TO EMPHASIZE THIS POINT IS "THOUGH YOU ARE IN THE WORLD, BE YE NOT OF THE WORLD." IT'S WRITTEN IN A FORM OF A COMMANDMENT. THE WORDING IS TO BE A FIRM IDEA FOR THE CHRISTIAN LIFE. ("...BE YE NOT...") AS THE BIBLE IS INERRANT, THERE ARE CERTAIN TIMES THE SCRIPTURES ARE WRITTEN IN A PARTICULAR WAY FOR INTENTIONAL OBEDIENCE. THESE SCRIPTURES TELL US OF WHAT IS A SIN, SUCH AS THE 10 COMMANDMENTS. THEY WERE WRITTEN TO BE TAKEN AS EXACTLY THAT, COMMANDMENTS FROM GOD AND OBEYED 100%. "BE YE NOT" IS INTENTIONAL AND ENCOURAGES THE READER TO CONSIDER A "WORLDLY" ACTION AS SIN. TO PERSONALIZE THIS SCRIPTURE, ONE WOULD THINK: THOUGH I AM IN THE WORLD, I WILL NOT ACT OR TALK LIKE THE WORLD. A CHRISTIAN MUST DEFINE HOW FAR DO THEY WANT TO TAKE THE INTERPRETATION OF THE "WORLD" AND APPLY IT INTO THEIR LIFE.

MYTH #15

DEAD AS A DOOR NAIL- A CHRISTIANS' WORDS WILL BE JUDGED IN HEAVEN. (REV. 20:12-13) THEY NEED TO TAKE ON A NEW VOCABULARY REFLECTING A NEW PERSPECTIVE FOR BEING HEAVEN BOUND. CHRISTIANS DON'T USE THE WORD DEATH. THE BIBLE SPEAKS OF A PERSON WHO IS NOT ALIVE, AS NOT BEING DEAD; BUT ONLY "SLEEPING." JESUS RESURRECTED LAZARUS WHO WAS "SLEEPING" IN A TOMB. (JOHN 11:4,22-13) THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS ABOLISHED DEATH FOR EVERY CHRISTIAN. "DEATH WHERE IS YOUR STING?" (ICOR. 15:55) NO ONE IS DEAD LIKE A DOOR NAIL IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD. JESUS GAVE THE VICTORY FOR ALL CHRISTIANS TO ONLY HAVE LIFE - ETERNALLY.

MYTH #14C

　

FINAL STEP, A CHRISTIAN IS TO BE WISE IN THE WORD OF GOD TO BE PROTECTED FROM THE FALSE GODS. "BE PREPARED TO GIVE AN ANSWER IN AND OUT OF SEASON." (IITIM. 4:2) UPON SPEAKING A REBUTTAL CONCERNING THE CHRISTIAN FAITH, GIVE THE PERSON SCRIPTURE, NOT YOUR OWN WORDS. JESUS USED THE WORD TO FIGHT SATAN. (MATT. 4:1-11) THE TRUTH SHALL MAKE THEM FREE. (JOHN 8:32) DURING THE REBUTTAL, PRAY FOR THE BLOOD OF JESUS OVER THE SPOKEN WORDS YOU'VE SAID. ASK GOD TO PLANT YOUR WORDS ON GOOD SOIL AND BRING THEM TO CHRIST. (LUKE 8:11-15)

MYTH #14B

STEP THREE, A FLARE FOR A FALSE PROPHET: THEY WANT TO TELL YOU ABOUT OTHER BOOKS, BESIDES THE BIBLE. WHEN THESE PEOPLE APPROACH YOU WITH A FALSE CHRISTIAN IDEA, LOOK UP THE INFORMATION. YOU MAY NOT FIND THEIR QUOTES IN YOUR BIBLE. DON'T BE SURPRISED. COMPARE THE INFORMATION THEY SAID WITH SCRIPTURES. THE BEST PROTECTION FOR YOUR SOUL IS TO KNOW THE WORD OF GOD. DO AN EXEGESIS. A PROPER EXEGESIS IS RESEARCHING THE VERSE, IN COMPARISON WITH THE PARAGRAPH, CHAPTER AND BOOK OF WHICH THE SCRIPTURE IS WRITTEN. THEN, COMPARE THE SCRIPTURE WITH SIMILAR VERSES IN THE BIBLE. THIS RESEARCH GIVES YOU A FULL COMPREHENSION TO THE VERSE AND MAGNIFIES THE MEANING WITH FURTHER ILLUSTRATIONS IN THE BIBLE. THIS PROCESS IS SIMPLIFIED WITH A TOPICAL BIBLE OR A CONCORDANCE.

MYTH #14A

THERE ARE MANY FALSE PROPHETS AROUND LEADING UNAWARE CHRISTIANS ASTRAY. THE FOLLOWING IS A SIMPLE PROCESS TO DO WHEN YOU FIND MISLEAD PEOPLE. FIRST, KEEP IN THE FOREFRONT OF YOUR MIND TO NOT CALL THEM CHRISTIANS. NO MATTER HOW NICE THEY MAY BE, THEY'RE UNSAVED. KEEP IN MIND CONTINUALLY: IT'S BETTER TO KEEP YOUR SALVATION, THAN TO MAKE A NEW FRIEND. ONE MYTH CAN CAUSE YOU TO LOSE YOUR PLACE IN HEAVEN.

　

THE NEXT STEP, SHOW NO MERCY. JOSHUA GOT THE PROMISED LAND BY SHOWING NO MERCY TO OTHER GODS. (JOSH. 11:20) THE BIBLE INSTRUCTS A CHRISTIAN TO NOT BE MERCIFUL TOWARDS A FALSE PROPHET IN IIJOHN :10-11. THESE VERSES GO INTO DETAIL OF SOMEONE WHO IS MERCIFUL TOWARDS A FALSE PROPHET, IS INDICATING THEY ARE ON THEIR SIDE.

MYTH #13B

　

 

THE DEAD SEA SCROLLS AND NOAHS' ARK ON MT. ARARAT ARE RECENT ARCHAELOGICAL FINDINGS TO AIDE IN PROVING THE BIBLE IS AN ACCURATE HISTORICAL BOOK. THE BIBLE IS THE TRUE AND ONLY BOOK FOR THE CHRISTIAN FAITH. SCRIPTURES SAY THE WORD OF GOD WAS WRITTEN BY MEN WHO WERE EMPOWERED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT DURING THEIR WRITINGS. (IITIM. 3:16-17) SEVERAL VERSES ADVISE TO NOT ADD OR TAKE AWAY FROM WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS. (DEUT. 4:2, 12:32, PROV. 12:5-6) THE BIBLE IS TO BE TAKEN LITERALLY AND RESPECTED. REV. 22:19 ISSUES A WARNING THAT CAN BE TAKEN FOR THE WHOLE BIBLE, NOT JUST FOR THE BOOK OF REVELATIONS.

MYTH #13A

WORD OF GOD-SOME PEOPLE THINK THE BIBLE IS ONLY ANOTHER BOOK.  SOME PEOPLE WHO CALL THEMSELVES CHRISIANS RATIONALIZE THE BIBLE AND TAKE THE MIRACULOUS OUT OF CONTEXT.  THE WORLD SAYS PARTING THE RED SEA AND MARYS' IMMACULATE CONCEPTION ARE ONLY STORIES LIKE AESOPS' FABLES. SCIENCE HAS TAKEN A LOT OF TESTIMONIES FROM THE BIBLE AND DE-MORALIZED THEM. SOME SCIENTISTS SAY THE PARTING OF THE RED SEA WAS CAUSED BY A SWAMP. SCIENCE HAS RATIONALIZED VARIOUS MIRACLES MOSES DID FOR PHAROAH AS UNUSUAL NATURAL EVENTS. THAT ISN'T TRUE.

MYTH #12

NOT EVERYONE-JUST BECAUSE THEY SAY THEY'RE CHRISTIAN, THAT MEANS THE PERSON IS A CHRISTIAN.  DON'T BELIEVE EVERYONE IS A CHRISTIAN. ESPECIALLY DURING THE CHRISTMAS SEASON, EVERYONE WANTS TO BE A CHRISTIAN. WHEN PEOPLE SAY THEY ARE A CHRISTIAN, ASK THEM WHAT DENOMINATION THEY ARE. ASK THEM HOW THEY BELIEVE. IE. BELIEVING IN JESUS BEING THE SON OF GOD, BELIEVING IN OTHER FAITHS-HINDU, MUSLIM..., WHEN PENTECOSTAL, ARE THEY JESUS ONLY?... A PERSON CAN SAY THEY'RE CHRISTAIN AND NOT ACTUALLY BE A CHRISTIAN.

AN INDIVIDUAL MAY BELIEVE IN JESUS THE SON OF GOD; BUT BE IN A CULTIC CHURCH.  (AKA MISLEAD CHURCH CLAIMING TO BE A CHRISTIAN CHURCH)  THIS WILL KEEP A PERSON FROM BEING A CHRISTIAN. THE PERSON CAN BE OF ANOTHER FAITH WHILE PROCLAIMING CHRISTIANITY.   I MET A MAN WHO SAID HE WAS A CHRISTIAN. GOD TOLD ME TO PURSUE HIS STATEMENT. AS I ASKED QUESTIONS, I FOUND OUT HE WAS A MUSLIM WHO BELIEVED IN JESUS BEING THE SON OF GOD. I EXPLAINED TO BE A CHRISTIAN, HE HAD TO DISOWN THE OTHER FAITH. JESUS SAID YOU CAN'T HAVE ONE FOOT IN THE WORLD AND THE OTHER IN CHRISTIANITY. "NO MAN CAN SERVE TWO MASTERS."  (LUKE 16:13)

MYTH #11

THE WORLD SAYS "GOD HATES SINNERS."   IT'S NOT TRUE. THE SINNERS HATE GOD.  THE BIBLE SAYS GOD LOVED MANKIND BEFORE WE LOVE HIM.  GOD IS OUR MAKER AND CREATOR, HE LOVES HIS CREATION.  IJOHN 4:9-10 AND EPH. 1:4 STATE GOD LOVED US FIRST.  ROMANS 5:8-10 CORRESPONDS WITH THIS IDEA.  THESE VERSES GO FURTHER INTO SAYING MANKIND IS THE ONE WHO WAS WALKING OUT OF LOVE AS AN UNBELIEVER.  (ADAMIC NATURE V.S  CHRIST NATURE)  JOHN 3:16 SAYS GOD LOVED THE WORLD SO MUCH, HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON TO SAVE MANKIND FROM PERISHING.

MYTH #10D

ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE, ANY FORM OF MINISTERIAL ACTIVITIES GIVEN TO A CHILD UNDER THE AGE OF 12 (OR THEIR AGE OF ACCOUNTABILITY) ARE TO BE APPROVED OF BY THE PARENTS. THERE ISN'T AN EXACT SCRIPTURE, BUT THIS IDEA CORRESPONDS WITH JESUS MINISTERIAL STYLE. JESUS IS THE EXAMPLE FOR HOW A CHRISTIAN IS TO LIVE ON EARTH. THE PARENTS SPOKE WITH JESUS AND THEN HE PRAYED FOR A CHILD. JESUS DIDN'T WALK UP AND FORCE HIS PRAYERS UPON ANY PERSON, YOUNG OR OLD. "LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF." HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF SOMEONE STARTED PRAYING FOR YOUR CHILD WITHOUT ANY FORM OF NOTIFICATION PRIOR TO THE EVENT?

MYTH #10C

THE BIBLE SPEAKS OF AN ACCOUNTABILITY AGE FOR A CHILD. JEWISH TRADITION TEACHES A GIRL IS ACCOUNTABLE AT 12 AND A BOY AT 13. JESUS SAT IN THE TEMPLE AROUND THE AGE OF 12 WITH A CLEAR COMPREHENSION OF SCRIPTURES. (LUKE 2:49) AGE OF ACCOUNTABILITY IS DEFINED AS A CHILD ABLE TO UNDERSTAND THE WORD OF GOD AND DETERMINE FOR THEMSELVES HOW TO BELIEVE, IN REGARDS TO THE CHRISTIAN FAITH. UNTIL THAT TIME, THE CHILD WILL BE WHAT THEIR BLOOD FAMILY IS IN RELATION TO A FAITH. (EX. 12:26-27, PROV. 23:13, EPH. 6:4)

GOD HAS BLESSED ME WITH PASTORING A CHURCH.  THE CHURCH HAS VARIOUS SATELLITE CHURCHES IN OTHER COUNTRIES.  AS I AM THE FOUNDING PASTOR, I WATCH OVER ALL OF THE CHURCHES.  EVERY MONTH I SEND OUT A DVD WITH 4 TEACHINGS REPRESENTING THE FOUR WEEKS IN A MONTH.  THE SATELLITE CHURCHES ALL PLAY THE DVDS.  THE LEADER FOR THE SATELLITE CHURCH HAS BEEN TRAINED IN THE GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.  EACH LEADER HAS A CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION FROM THE HOLY SPIRIT SEMINAR.  ANYONE INTERESTED IN VISITING A TLRC IN THEIR COUNTRY LET ME KNOW. 

NEXT  MONTH I MAY OFFER THE HOLY SPIRIT SEMINAR OVER THE INTERNET.

MYTH #10B

THE MODERN CHRISTENING CAN HAVE A COUPLE STAND WITH THE IMMEDIATE FAMILY DURING THE SERVICE. THE COUPLE ARE PROCLAIMING WITH THE FAMILY THEIR CHILD BELONGS TO GOD. THE COUPLE CAN BE A SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR THE FAMILY WHILE RAISING THE CHILD. DURING THE SERVICE, THE FAMILY CAN ADD A MIDDLE NAME TO THE CHILD BEING CHRISTENED. THIS FALLS IN LINE WITH REVELATIONS 2:17 STATING A CHRISTIAN GETS A NEW NAME IN HEAVEN. THE NEW NAME DURING THE CHRISTENING SERVICE CAN BEAR A RESEMBLANCE TO THE NEW LIFE IN CHRIST.
 

RARE - STUCK BUTTON

I FOUND OUT TODAY THE SYSTEM GOES @#$! ON THE RARE LIFE SCREEN.  THERE'S BEEN OVER 300 PEOPLE WHO HAVE VIEWED THE SCREEN SINCE THE FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT.  THE MAIN SCREEN SOMETIMES DOESN'T CHANGE TO THE "REV. CAROL" SCREEN FOR VOTING.  THE VOTING BUTTON GETS STUCK AND ISN'T PROCESSING/CALCULATING THE VOTES.  HOW DARE SATAN  I'M GOING TO CONTACT THE RARE LIFE AWARD OFFICE AND ASK THEM TO FIX THE SYSTEM.  THE SYSTEM WORKS BETTER FROM ENTERING THE RARE SCREEN FOR "REV. CAROL" BY DOING A SEARCH ON THE WEB.  REV. CAROL RARE LIFE AWARD 

THANK YOU! FOR EVERYONE GETTING INVOLVED IN THE ELECTIONS.  PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT OF YOUR TIME AND RE-PROCESS THE VOTE THRU THE WEB SEARCH.  GOD IS GREATER THAN COMPUTER SYSTEMS WITH STUCK BUTTONS.  THE GATES OF HELL SHALL NOT PREVAIL - ALLELUIA!   

MYTH #10A

 

 

GODPARENTS-THE BIBLE DOESN'T MENTION ANY FORM OF A GODPARENT.  THIS IS A TRADITIONAL LIFESTYLE FOR SOME FAITHS.  GENERALLY THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN GUARDIAN ANGELS, ALSO, CONSIDER GODPARENTS ACCEPTABLE.  THE IDEA IS WHEN A CHILD BECOMES ORPHANED, THE GODPARENTS ARE TO RAISE THE CHILD.  ACCORDING TO THIS MYTH, THE GODPARENTS HAVE EARNED A STAIR STEP UP TO HEAVEN.  THIS IS ALL INCORRECT.  THE MODERN LEGAL SYSTEM PUTS AN ORPHAN UNDER THE CARE OF A BLOOD FAMILY MEMBER.  BUILDING A STAIRWAY UP TO HEAVEN PUTS A PERSONS' FAITH UNDER LEGALISM.  THIS ASPECT DENIES THE WORK OF GODS' GRACE AT THE CROSS AND MAKES A PERSON THINK THEY HAVE TO DO "SOMETHING" FOR SALVATION.

GOD IS GOOD! THERE'S POWER IN LOVE. I GIVE ALL THE GLORY TO GOD FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE. ALLELUIA!

MYTH #9

IT'S ONLY LOVE-A POPULAR MYTH IN THE WORLD IS "LOVE DOESN'T HURT ANYONE."  THE WORLD TRIES TO ENCOURAGE A SIN BY STATING "JESUS SAID TO LOVE EVERYONE.  HE'S SAYING IT'S OK TO HAVE SEX."  THE WORLD IS TAKING THE SCRIPTURES OUT OF CONTEXT.  JESUS WAS TALKING ABOUT A PHILIA LOVE, NOT AN EROS LOVE.  THE WORLD SAYS IT WISE TO HAVE SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE.  "YOU TRY ON A PAIR OF SHOES BEFORE YOU BUY THEM.  IT'S THE SAME IDEA."  THE BIBLE TEACHES IT'S NOT OK FOR SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE. 

CHRISTIANS ARE TO SAY "NO" TO PREMARITIAL SEX.  THERE ARE TWO BOOKS IN THE BIBLE WRITTEN ABOUT A CITY THAT FELL INTO SEXUAL SINS.  THE CITY IS CORINTH AND THE BOOKS ARE CORINTHIANS.  THE COUNTRY STILL HOLDS THAT KIND OF REPUTATION.  GOD FROWNS UPON SEXUAL SINS, ESPECIALLY THOSE OF SEXUAL IMMORALITY.  THE DEAD SEA IN ISRAEL COMES FROM SODOM AND GOMORRAH.  (GEN. 19)  THE ONLY LOST TRIBE IN ISRAEL, BEN, WAS KILLED OFF FROM EXISTENCE.  THE REASON WHY:  A SEXUAL SIN.  READ JUDGES 19:24-21:3, "...ONE TRIBE LACKING."  IN IITIM. IT SAYS TO PUT AWAY ALL SEXUAL LUSTS.  THE FIRST FEW CHAPTERS IN PROVERBS WARN OF THE HARLOT. 

AN IDEA ON HOW TO AVOID A SEXUAL SIN.  SAY "NO" AT THE BEGINNING.  THERE IS WISDOM TO NOT KISS OR HOLD HANDS.  THEN YOU WON'T HAVE TO FIGHT FOR YOUR SALVATION IN A MOMENT OF PASSION.

MYTH #8B

THE BIBLE TEACHES A CHRISTIAN IS TO LIVE A GODLY LIFE ON EARTH. UPON DEATH, A CHRISTIAN, WILL BE A PART OF THE RAPTURE AND PARTAKE OF JUDGMENT DAY.  THERE ISN'T A SECOND CHANCE FOR HEAVEN ONCE SOMEONE DIES. THAT'S WHY IT'S IMPORTANT TO LIVE A PURE LIFE HERE ON EARTH.   A GOOD WAY TO PROTECT FROM AN UNEXPECTED RAPID DEATH IS TO ALWAYS PRAY A LITTLE PRAYER. "FORGIVE ME OF MY SINS, MY OMISSIONS AND COMISSIONS OF SINS." THIS PRAYER ASKS GOD TO FORGIVE SOMEONE OF: 1) THEIR DELIBERATELY KNOWN SINS (COMISSIONS), AND 2) THEIR LACK OF A GOOD ACTION CAUSING AN UNKNOWN (OMISSIONS) SINS. THE BEST WAY TO BE PREPARED FOR AN UNEXPECTED DEATH IS TO NOT SIN AT ALL. WALK IN LOVE AT ALL TIMES, SHOWING THE LOVE OF JESUS, IS THE BEST SOLUTION.     

MYTH #8A

PURGATORY-SOME PEOPLE THINK IT'S OK TO PRAY FOR A PERSON WHEN THEY DIE.  THE IDEA IS THEY ASK GOD TO FORGIVE THE DEAD PERSONS' SINS.  THIS IS GENERALLY PRACTICED IN CERTAINS FAITHS WHEN SOMEONE DIES IN AN ACCIDENT, AND  HAVE NOT HAD TIME TO PREPARE TO DIE.  IE.  LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT, DYING PERSONS CONFESSIONS, LAST MINUTE PRAYER...  SOME FAITHS THINK THESE TYPES OF PEOPLE WILL GO TO A MIDDLE LAND, NOT HEAVEN OR EARTH.  THE UNPREPARED PEOPLE, ACCORDING TO THEIR FAITH, WILL GO TO PURGATORY.  PRAYERS OF THE SURVIVING FRIENDS AND RELATIVES, ASK GOD TO FORGIVE THE DECEASED PERSONS' SINS AND ALLOW THEM TO ENTER HEAVEN IN THE RAPTURE.  THESE TYPES OF FAITH THINK THAT SOME OF THE DEAD IN PURGATORY WILL ROAM THE EARTH AS A GHOST.  NOT TRUE!

MYTH #7B

SAY "NO" TO OTHER BOOKS-THERE IS ONLY ONE BOOK FOR THE CHRISTIAN FAITH. THAT IS THE BIBLE. THERE ARE DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THE BIBLE: REVISED STANDARD VERSION, KING JAMES BIBLE, NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION, SPIRIT FILLED...  THE BIBLE IS AVAILABLE IN REGULAR OR LARGE PRINT, AUDIO AND VIDEO EDITIONS.    

THE VERSIONS PERTAIN TO THE AMOUNT OF ACCURACY FROM THE HEBREW LANGUAGE.  BIBLES ARE FOR DIFFERENT PURPOSES.  SOME ARE DILUTED FROM THE HEBREW TRANSLATION.  I USE THE LIVING BIBLE WHILE TEACHING CHILDREN.  THEY HAVE A SHORT ATTENTION SPAN AND IT'S BETTER TO GIVE A SHORT SCRIPTURE.  THE CLOSEST TRANSLATION TO THE HEBREW LANGUAGE IS BETWEEN TWO DIFFERENT BIBLES, THE REVISED STANDARD VERSION AND THE (NEW AMERICAN/ENGLISH) STANDARD VERSION. 

THERE VARIOUS FORMS OF THE BIBLE PRINTED.  A BIBLE IS OFFERED IN THE NORMAL STYLE, GENESIS TO REVELATION.  SOME BIBLES ARE PRINTED WITH RED INK IN CERTAIN AREAS TO EASILY IDENTIFY THE WORDS OF JESUS.  SOME OTHER FORMS OF THE BIBLE INCLUDE:
1) TOPICAL:  IN A TOPICAL BIBLE YOU ARE ABLE TO LOOK UP A PARTICULAR TOPIC. IE. FOOD, MARRIAGE...  THE SECTION WILL GIVE ALL SCRIPTURES PERTAINING TO THE TOPIC.  THIS BIBLE IS GOOD FOR RESEARCH.
2) STUDY/STUDENT:  A STUDY BIBLE IS EXACTLY WHAT THE TITLE DESCRIBES.  THE BIBLE WILL HAVE PICTURES OR NOTES TO ENHANCE THE VERSES.  THE BIBLE IS A GOOD AIDE IN TEACHING GROUPS.
3) CHRONOLOGICAL:  THERE ARE BIBLES WRITTEN IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER.  THIS BIBLE WRITTEN IN A CALENDAR FORMAT.  YOU WON'T FIND MATTHEW 1,2, 3 ON THE PAGES.  THERE MAY BE MATTHEW 1 FOLLOWED BY LUKE 1.  THIS IS BECAUSE THE TIME FRAME IS CLOSE.  THIS BIBLE IS GREAT FOR MAKING A HOLY DAY CALENDAR.  THE SCRIPTURE ARE EASILY ATTAINABLE FOR UNDERSTANDING WHAT HAPPENED FIRST.  FOR EXAMPLE:  DAY 1-ZACHERIAH TOLD OF JOHNS' BIRTH.  DAY 2-MARY TOLD OF JESUS' BIRTH.  DAY 3-MARY VISITS AUNT ELIZABETH.  DAY 4-ELIZABETH HAS JOHN.  DAY 5-JESUS IS BORN.
4) CHAIN REFERENCE:  THE CHAIN REFERENCE BIBLE CONNECTS SIMILAR VERSES TOGETHER WITH SPECIAL NOTES NEAR THE SCRIPTURE.  THIS MAKES IT EASY FOR VARIOUS RESEARCH. 
5) THERE ARE BIBLES WITH 2 OR 3 VERSIONS PRINTED IN THE SAME BOOK.  THIS MAKES IT EASIER TO COMPARE DIFFERENT SCRIPTURES AT ONE TIME.  IE.  ONE PAGE CAN HAVE ON THE LEFT COLUMN A KING JAMES VERSION AND ON THE RIGHT COLUMN THE SPIRIT FILLED BIBLE. 

THE BIBLE STATES THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD AND ONE FAITH. THERE IS ONLY ONE BOOK, THE BIBLE. 

RARE P.S.

P.S. I NOTICED THE OTHER INDIVIDUALS UP FOR THE RARE LIFE AWARD DO NOT CARRY THE TITLE "REV."  TOMORROW IS SUNDAY.  EVERYONE WHO GOES TO CHURCH, GET YOUR CHURCH INVOLVED.  ASK ALL CHRISTIANS TO VOTE FOR "REV. CAROL."  LET'S MAKE THIS A CHRISTIAN VICTORY.  IT'LL BE A WAY TO SHOW THE WORLD "JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD!"

RARE LIFE UPDATE II

RARE LIFE AWARD UPDATE: I CHECKED ON THE STATS. IN ORDER TO WIN, AT THE PRESENT TIME, I'M REQUIRED TO HAVE APPROXIMATELY 70,000 ELECTRONIC VOTES. I CAN DO IT.

I SAY THIS HUMBLY. GOD HAS BLESSED WITH OVER A MILLION FOLLOWERS ON THE INTERNET. I'M NOT INTO NUMBERS. THE BIBLE SAYS SATAN ENTERED KING DAVID WHEN HE TOOK A CENSUS. I LOOK AT HEARTS, NOT NUMBERS. THE NUMBER TO WIN IS LESS THAN 1/10TH OF THE FOLLOWERS OVER THE INTERNET.

GOOD NEWS! AN INDIVIDUAL CAN VOTE MORE THAN ONCE FOR THE SAME PERSON IN THIS ELECTION. YOU ONLY HAVE TO WAIT 24 HOURS AND VOTE AGAIN. FROM READING THE RULES THERE IS NO AGE GROUP SPECIFIED NOR NATIONALITY FOR THE VOTING PARTIES. ANYONE CAN VOTE, INCLUDING CHILDREN, IN ANY COUNTRY.
http://eaglerarelife.com/content/official-rules INTERNET VOTING IS ACCEPTED UNTIL 1/3/13.

GOD CAN BLESS BY HAVING EVERYONE WHO READS THIS POST VOTE "REV. CAROL" FOR THE RARE LIFE AWARD. DON'T BE SHY. I KNOW YOU CAN DO IT. IT TAKES LESS THAN 1 MINUTE TO LINK IN AND VOTE. YOU'LL RECEIVE A BLESSING!

MYTH #7A

 

 

OTHER BOOKS V.S. THE BIBLE-THERE ARE A LOT OF OTHER BOOKS BESIDES THE BIBLE INVOLVED IN CERTAIN "SO-CALLED" CHRISTIAN FAITHS.  THESE BOOKS MIGHT SOUND GOOD.  THEY ARE INCORRECT.  THE WORD OF GOD IS INERRANT, WITHOUT FLAW.  A CHRISTIAN IS TO NOT ADD OR TAKE AWAY FROM THE BIBLE.  (DEUT. 4:2, 12:32, PROV. 12:5-6)  IN REV. 22:19 THERE IS A WARNING ABOUT ADDING OR TAKING AWAY FROM THE BOOK.  IT'S WISE TO CONSIDER THIS WARNING TO BE TAKEN FOR THE WHOLE BIBLE, NOT JUST FOR THE BOOK OF REVELATIONS.  

RARE LIFE UPDATE I

PLEASE NOTE: THE RARE LIFE ORGANIZATION SELLS ALCOHOL.  THE BIBLE SHOWS VARIOUS INSTANCES WHERE GOD USES THE WORLD TO BRING A VICTORY FOR HIS KINGDOM.  JOSHUA TOOK THE CITY OF JERICHO WITH THE HELP OF A WOMAN NAMED RAHAB.  MS. RAHAB HAD BEEN A PROSTITUTE IN JERICHO.  (6:25)  DID YOU KNOW IN THE BLOODLINE OF JESUS THERE IS A WOMAN NAMED RAHAB?  (MATT. 1:5)  I DON'T KNOW IF THAT IS THE SAME WOMAN.  I'LL FIND OUT IN HEAVEN. 

I AM A NAZARITE AND DON'T DRINK ALCOHOL. I DATED A MAN WHO HAD A SMALL GROCERY STORE. THEY SOLD ALCOHOL. I PRAYED OVER IT EVERY NIGHT, ASKING GOD TO USE IT BIBLICALLY. PAUL TOLD TIMOTHY TO DRINK WINE TO HELP HIS STOMACH. (ITIM. 5:23) I PRAYED FOR GOD TO USE THE ALCOHOL IN A WAY TO BRING HEALING TO THOSE WHO PARTOOK OF THE BEVERAGE. I ASKED GOD TO KEEP INDIVIDUALS FROM TURNING INTO AN ALCOHOLIC FROM THE BEVERAGES PURCHASED AT MY BOYFRIENDS' STORE.

IT'S NOT A SIN TO DRINK ALCOHOL. IT IS A SIN TO TURN INTO AN ALCOHOLIC. (GAL. 5:21) A CHRISTIAN IS TO HAVE CONTROL OVER THEIR BODY, INCLUDING DRINKING ALCOHOL. (GAL. 5:23)   I DON'T CONDEMN ANYONE. (REV. 12:10)   GOD CAN USE ANYTHING TO DRAW A PERSON CLOSER TO CHRIST.

PARTICIPATING IN THIS ELECTION CAN BE A WAY TO FREE ONESELF FROM TRADITIONS.  THE PHARISEES KILLED JESUS BECAUSE THEY HAD A TRADITIONAL WAY OF THINKING.  TRADITION CAN BE A HISTORY OF CERTAIN BEHAVIOUR PASSED ON FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION.  IE.  WHEN MS. A WAS GROWING UP, SHE OPENED ONE CHRISTMAS GIFT ON CHRISTMAS EVE AT 12AM.  AFTERWARDS, MS. A WENT TO BED; AND UPON WAKING IN THE MORNING, OPENED THE REST OF THE GIFTS.  BEFORE MS. A WAS BORN, HER MOTHER AND GRANDPARENTS OPENED ONE GIFT ON CHRISTMAS EVE AT 12AM.  THIS CAN BE CALLED A TRADITIONAL CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION.  TO BREAK THE TRADITION, MS. A CHOOSES TO NOT OPEN A GIFT AT MIDNIGHT ON CHRISTMAS EVE. 

CHRISTIANS ARE TRADITIONALLY AGAINST CERTAIN ITEMS THAT MAY NOT BE SIN, BUT ARE NOT POPULAR IN CERTAIN CIRCLES.  TO BREAK A TRADITION, YOU PRAY AND DECIDE TO NOT PARTAKE OF THE TRADITIONAL BEHAVIOUR.  MEMORIZED SCRIPTURES WILL BRING HEALING IN THE AREA OF YOUR MIND AND A FREEDOM FROM CERTAIN BEHAVIOURIAL PATTERNS.  THIS CAN ACCOMPANY A "FREE" FEELING.  

FOR THOSE WHO CHOOSE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE RARE LIFE AWARD ELECTION PROCESS, I'LL ASK GOD TO BRING A BLESSING.   MY PRAYER FOR EVERYONE IS TO BREAK THE TRADITIONAL TABOO THOUGHT PATTERN FOR ALCOHOL.  MAY EVERYONE REALIZE IT'S OK TO DRINK ALCOHOL.  I PRAY CHRISTIANS WILL EXERCISE SELF-CONTROL AND DRINK ALCOHOL IN MODERATION. 

PLEASE NOTE:  I'M NOT SAYING I'LL PRAY FOR YOU TO START DRINKING.  NO!  THAT'S UP TO YOU.  I'M ONLY ASKING GOD TO GIVE INDIVIDUALS AN EMOTIONAL RELEASE FROM THE IDEAS OF DRINKING.  THAT'S DIFFERENT. 

THIS RELEASE FROM TRADITIONAL THINKING MAY ALLEVIATE TENSION IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH SOMEONE WHO DRINKS ALCOHOL.  AS THE HOLY SEASON IS HERE, MORE INDIVIDUALS ARE DRINKING ALCOHOL WHILE PARTICIPATING IN FESTIVITIES.  THIS TRADITIONAL RELEASE MAY ASSIST OTHERS IN SEEING THE HOLY SEASON IN A NEW LIGHT.  IE. DANGEROUS DRIVERS OUT DURING THE HOLY SEASON.  FREEDOM FROM TRADITIONAL THINKING WORKS FOR A PERSON IN MANY WAYS, TOWARDS THEMSELVES AND OTHERS. 

I HAVE A WONDERFUL TESTIMONY ABOUT A SMOKER WHO STOPPED SMOKING BY RESPONDING TO UNCONDITIONAL LOVE.  I BOUGHT MS. B A CIGERETTE CASE FOR CHRISTMAS IN HOPES OF ENCOURAGING HER TO STOP SMOKIG.  THIS FORM OF AGAPE LOVE BREAKS THE GUILT SATAN SENDS IN AN ADDICTION.  A GREAT WAY TO BREAK A BAD HABIT IS TO READ THE BIBLE WHILE PARTICIPATING IN THE ADDICTION.

COLORS III-THE BIBLE SAYS JACOB HAD A DISTINCTIVE COAT OF MANY COLORS MADE FOR JOSEPH. IT DIDN'T GO INTO DETAIL OF WHAT THE COLORS WERE. THE RAINBOW FROM GODS' PROMISE WITH NOAH HAS VARIOUS COLORS STREWN ACROSS THE SKY. I DON'T KNOW IF THERE IS A MEANING FOR EACH COLOR. THE ONE THING I DO KNOW, GOD ISN'T AGAINST THE ASSORTED COLORS. ESTH. 8:15

"RARE" SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

THIS IS A SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT. 
THIS IS A SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THOSE PARTICIPATING IN THE RARE LIFE AWARD CAMPAIGN ELECTION.

THIS IS A SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT TO VOTE FOR "REV. CAROL" AT

YOU CAN DO THIS ONCE A DAY UNTIL DECEMBER 31ST.  IT'S LEGAL!

MYTH #6B

COLORS II-THERE ARE FEW COLORS WRITTEN ABOUT IN THE BIBLE. LOOKING UPON A TOPICAL BIBLE FOR "COLOR" IT GIVES A FEW SCRIPTURES. THE COLORS MENTIONED ARE: WHITE - GEN. 5:27, IS. 1:18, BLACK - PROV. 7:9, REV. 6:5, CRIMSON - IICHRON. 3:14, IS. 1:18, BLUE - EX. 24:10, NUM. 15:38, RED - GEN. 25:25, MATT. 16:3, PURPLE - PROV. 31:22, ACTS 16:14, REV. 17:4, GRAY - JOB 15:10, PROV. 20:29, EZEK. 17:24, IKINGS 14:23, SCARLET - JOSH. 3:18, IS. 1:18, VERMILLION - JER. 22:14, EZEK. 23:14, YELLOW - LEV. 13:30. GOLD, SILVER AND BRASS/ BRONZE ARE USED VARIOUS TIMES IN THE BIBLE NOT DESCRIBING A COLOR, BUT A METAL.

MYTH #6A

 

COLORS I-SOME CHRISTIANS THINK IT'S OKAY TO DEFINE COLORS IN A SPIRITUAL MEANING. FOR EXAMPLE: YELLOW IS JESUS. THEIR REASONING IS BASED ON PSALM 19:4-6. THE SCRIPTURE COMPARES JESUS AS A BRIDEGROOM, RUNNING HIS COURSE. JESUS IS CONSIDERED THE BRIDEGROOM ACCORDING TO MATT. 9:14-17 AND 25:1-13. SINCE THE SUN IS YELLOW, THAT'S THE CHOSEN COLOR FOR JESUS. THERE'S A COLOR FOR JOY, PEACE AND THE OTHER MANIFESTATIONS FOR THE FRUIT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. IT'S A NICE THOUGHT. THIS IS INCORRECT.

VOTE

 

 

OKAY EVERYONE!  IT'S TIME FOR YOU TO STAND BESIDE ME.  I LOOKED ON "RARE LIFE AWARD" AND THE NOMINATION HAS COME FORWARD.  P-L-E-A-S-E GO TO THE SCREEN AND SEND ME A VOTE.  THE LINK IS:  http://eaglerarelife.com/content/rev-carol
RARE LIFE IS ACCEPTING VOTES UNTIL 12/31/12.  TELL YOUR NEIGHBOR, FAMILY, FRIEND, CO-WORKER... TO VOTE "REV. CAROL."  YOU HAVE 35 DAYS TO GET THE VOTES POSTED.  IN PROVERBS IT SAYS "DO NOT PUT OFF TOMORROW, WHAT YOU CAN DO TODAY."  ADD THIS TO YOUR LIST OF THINGS TO DO FOR CHRISTMAS.  IT'S ALL FOR THE GLORY OF GOD! 

IMPORTANT NOTE

 

NOTE: DON'T FORGET ANYTHING THAT GOES AGAINST THE BIBLE IS HERETICAL.  THE DEFINITION OF HERETICAL:  DEPARTURE FROM ESTABLISHED BELIEFS OR STANDARDS.  IT'S IMPORTANT FOR A CHRISTIAN TO KNOW THE WORD OF GOD.  (IITIM. 2:15, 3:16)  THERE IS A LOT OF HERETICAL BELIEFS AROUND TO KEEP A CHRISTIAN FROM GOING TO HEAVEN, IN THE WORLD AND CHRISTIAN CIRCLES. MY DUTY AS A PASTOR IS TO KEEP AS MANY CHRISTIANS ON THE RIGHT PATHWAY. INSIDE THE CHURCH, GOD HAS ME PREACH MEAT AND POTATOS. THOSE OUTSIDE OF THE CHURCH CAN BUY THE BOOKS GOD HAS ME WRITE TO BECOME MORE INFORMED. GOD HAS ME WRITE A SERIES CALLED "MINI-SERMONS." PRESENTLY THERE ARE TWO VOLUMES OUT AND I AM WRITING VOLUME III. YOU CAN GET THEM ON AMAZON AT http://www.amazon.com/rev-Carol/e/B005AFAMFI/ref=ntt_athr_dp_pel_pop_1. THEY CAN BE GREAT CHRISTMAS GIFTS FOR YOURSELF OR OTHERS.

MYTH #5B

GUARDIAN II-UPON RESEARCH THE BIBLE DESCRIBES CERTAIN ANGELS. GABRIEL IS AN ANGEL FOR MESSAGES, MICHAEL IS AN ANGEL FOR COMBAT AND THERE'S THE ANGEL OF THE LORD. (LUKE 1, DAN. 10, EX. 3:2) IN PSALM 91 IT SPEAKS OF ANGELS THAT WATCH OVER YOU, LEST YOU DASH YOUR FOOT AGAINST A ROCK. THIS SCRIPTURE DOES NOT CALL THEM A GUARDIAN ANGEL. PSALM 91 DOES AFFIRM GOD DOES NOT WANT YOU TO FALL. GOD IS A GOD OF LIFE AND WILL PROTECT YOU FROM ANY HARM. GOD CAN USE AN ANGEL TO DO THIS. OR HE CAN USE A FRIENDLY POLICEMAN, NEIGHBOR AND EVEN A STRANGER. THE BIBLE DOES SAY A PERSON HAS TO BE PREPARED, FOR A STRANGER MAY BE AN ANGEL IN DISGUISE. (HEB. 13:2)

MYTH #5A

 

 

GUARDIAN I: SOME PEOPLE WANT TO CONSIDER THERE ARE GUARDIAN ANGELS WATCHING OVER THEM. THE MYTH DESCRIBES A GUARDIAN ANGEL AS A SPECIAL ANGEL COMMISSIONED BY GOD TO WATCH OVER A PERSON FROM BIRTH TO DEATH. THERE'S EVEN WONDERFUL PAINTINGS DRAWN ABOUT ANGELS WATCHING OVER INDIVIDUALS. SORRY, THIS IS NOT TRUE. THE BIBLE DOES NOT SAY DIRECTLY THERE ARE GUARDIAN ANGELS OR ANGELS WITH THAT PARTICULAR SERVICE.

MEAT

UPON PRAYER, I HAVE A RELEASE FROM GOD TO POST SOME "MEAT AND POTATOS."  I'LL CONTINUE DURING THE HOLY DAY SEASON WITH SOME CHRISTIAN TRUTHS.  FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO BE A PART OF A HOLY SPIRIT SEMINAR IN JANUARY-2013, PLEASE SIGN UP.  CONTACT ME AT YAHWEHADONAI1@GMAIL.COM. 

APTERA

 

 

GREAT VIDEOS TO SEE ABOUT THE ANCIENT CITY OF APTERA IN CRETE. HISTORICAL RECORDS (LINEAR TABLETS) SHOW THIS CITY MENTIONED IN 1400-1300BC. THE SITE WAS USED FOR VARIOUS PURPOSES THROUGH THE CENTURIES. IE. CASTLE, MONASTERY... ARTIFACTS SHOW SOME OF THE AREA WAS INHABITED SINCE 18,000BC. THE MAMOTHS BECAME EXTINCT AT THIS TIME ON WRANGEL ISLAND. BABYLON BECAME THE LARGEST CITY IN THE KNOWN WORLD DURING THE 18TH CENTURY. ABRAHAM, THE BIBLE PATRIARCH, LIVED IN THE 12TH CENTURY. THIS AREA IS DEFINITELY OF "ANCIENT" RUINS.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

WHAT IS NOV. 22ND

 

 

FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW NOV. 22-
THANKSGIVING IS A HOLIDAY CELEBRATED THE LAST THURSDAY IN THE MONTH OF NOVEMBER. THANKSGIVING IS THE NATIONAL HOLIDAY IN RECOGNITION OF IT BEING FOUNDED. JOHN PLYMOUTH LEFT ENGLAND IN SEARCH OF A NEW COUNTRY TO WORSHIP JESUS WITHOUT PERSECUTION.

　

JOHN PLYMOUTH CELEBRATED HIS FIRST YEAR IN THE NEW COUNTRY-AMERICA- WITH HIS FOLLOWERS, CALLED PILGRIMS. AMERICANS CALL THAT SPECIAL DAY "THANKSGIVING." THE PILGRIMS HAD TO FIGHT THE ENVIRONMENT TO SURVIVE. THIS CONSISTED OF WEATHER, THE LANCSCAPE WITH NEW DANGEROUS ANIMALS AND INDIANS. A LOT OF ARTISTS HAVE DRAWN PICTURES OF THE FIRST THANKSGIVING. MOST PICUTRES SHOW INDIANS SITTING AT A TABLE EATING WITH THE PILGRIMS. ON THE TABLE IS A TURKEY AND, GENERALLY, A CORNUCOPIA. THE INDIANS DEFINE THE VICTORY JOHN PLYMOUTH AND THE PILGRIMS WON OVER IN COMING TO A NEW COUNTRY TO WORSHIP JESUS. THE CORNUCOPIA REPRESENTS THE BOUNTIFUL VEGETATION THE PILGRIMS FOUND ON THEIR NEW LAND. THE TURKEY IS ONE OF THOSE "NEW" ANIMALS IN AMERICA.

I LOVE THANKSGIVING. IT'S THE ONE U.S. HOLIDAY THAT RECOGNIZES GOD. EVERYONE STOPS FOR ONE DAY TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE GOD WHO STARTED THE U.S. THAT GOD IS THE CHRISTIAN GOD. HINDU, BUDDHIST, MUSLIM, NEW AGE... ALL RECOGNIZE THE CHRISTIAN GOD IN AMERICA ON THANKSGIVING. THEY CAN'T DENY THE CHRISTIAN GOD. IT'S WRITTEN DOWN IN AMERICAS' HISTORY.

THANK YOU GOD FOR SENDING JOHN PLYMOUTH TO START AMERICA, A COUNTRY STARTED TO WORSHIP JESUS. IN AMERICA THERE IS A MONUMENT CALLED "PLYMOUTH ROCK." THIS IS A REPRESENTATION OF WHERE JOHN PLYMOUTH DROPPED HIS ANCHOR TO START AMERICA. CHRISTIANS IN AMERICA REFER TO THE "PLYMOUTH ROCK" WITH SCRIPTURE. (MATT. 7:24-27) SYNOPSIS-BUILD YOUR HOUSE UPON THIS ROCK AND IT WILL STAND IN THE STORM. JESUS IS THE ROCK. AS AMERICA WAS STARTED AS A PLACE TO WORSHIP JESUS WITHOUT ANY PERSECUTION, JESUS HAS KEPT THE COUNTRY STRONG ALL THESE YEARS. THE "HOUSE" HAS STOOD STORMS AND HASN'T FALLEN INTO ANY SINKING SAND.

AS THE BIG DAY DRAWS NEAR, EVERYONE IN AMERICA PREPARES FOR THANKSGIVING, WITH A TURKEY. ON THAT SPECIAL DAY EVERYONE CONSIDERS WHAT THEY ARE THANKFUL FOR. THEIR LIST USUALLY INCLUDES: FAMILY, FRIENDS, NON-MONETARY ITEMS, HEALTH, NEW JOB... AN AMERICAN CONSIDERS THE BLESSING FROM GOD. AS JOHN PLYMOUTH THANKED GOD ON THE FIRST THANKSGIVING FOR SURVIVING IN A NEW LAND; AMERICANS ACKNOWLEDGE A BIG "THANK YOU" DURING THAT SPECIAL DAY.

TRADITIONAL

 

AS TRADITION KILLED JESUS, A CHRISTIAN DOESN'T HAVE TO CELEBRATE IN A TRADITIONAL WAY.  IE.  THERE'S NO LAW THAT SAYS AN AMERICAN HAS TO COOK TURKEY ON THANKSGIVING DAY.  AN AMERICAN CAN COOK HAM, GOOSE, CORNISH GAME HENS...  AN IDEA FOR A CELEBRATION COMES FROM WITHIN THE HEART.  ESPECIALLY WITH A HOLIDAY CALLED "THANKSGIVING."  LET THE WAYS FOR CELEBRATING COME FROM YOUR OWN PERSONHOOD FOR EXPRESSING THANKS.  I'VE CELEBRATED A HOLY DAY WITHOUT THE NORMAL MEAL OR TRADITIONAL WAYS BEFORE.  ONCE I SPENT CHRISTMAS IN PERU WITH MISSIONARY FRIENDS, ANOTHER TIME I'VE HAD HAM AND NOT TURKEY.

THANKSGIVING SONGS

IDEAS FOR SONGS TO SING:
THANKS BE TO GOD
THIS IS THE DAY
BLESS THE LORD
GIVE THANKS WITH A GRATEFUL HEART
TO HIM WHO SITS ON THE THRONE
WE GATHER TOGETHER

YOU DON'T HAVE TO SING A SONG WITH THE WORD "THANKS" IN IT.  ANYTHING GOD PLACES IN YOUR HEART AS A SONG OF PRAISE TO HIM IS APPROPRIATE.

TURKEY FEAST

I SPEND THE DAY EATING THE REGULAR TURKEY FEAST.  GOD HAS ME READ SCRIPTURES IN THE BIBLE, THANKING HIM FOR THE SPECIAL DAY.  I SING VARIOUS SONGS WITH THE THEME OF GIVING "THANKS" TO GOD. 

YEARS

SOME YEARS I'M ALONE WITH JESUS FOR THANKSGIVING.  OTHER TIMES I SPEND IT WITH FRIENDS. THE CHURCH IN THE U.S. OPENS IT'S DOORS TO THE COMMUNITY AND OFFERS A FREE MEAL TO EVERYONE. WHEN I'M IN THE U.S., I'M BUSY GATHERING DONATIONS FROM THE STORES AND COOKING THE FEAST.

LIST

AS THE BIG DAY DRAWS NEAR, THANKSGIVING, WHAT ARE YOU THANKFUL FOR?
MAKE A LIST: FAMILY, FRIENDS, NON-MONETARY ITEMS, HEALTH, NEW JOB...
