I am a Gentile grafted into the Branch. I was raised in a very strict Protestant Christian Church that certainly through legalism controlled their members. I saw very little love or concern in the leaders of the church, but saw much love in the women teachers of the children. One godly woman had us in the 5th grade on Wednesday night memorizing scripture. After rebelling and finding the world in the sixties and seventies, the entanglement only increased in the love of money, the power of business; the combination of money, alcohol, and women. One verse from the dedicated servant of God that was drilled into my mind (meaningless then at 10 & 11) was 2 Timothy 2:15. “Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that need not to be ashamed rightly dividing the Word of Truth.”
Where is the offspring of the 1st Century Christian? When did Christianity change? Why would you trust anyone who killed your Fathers, stole your property, and scattered your nation into all parts of the world? The real question is whether you are worshiping a Gentile Jesus or a Jewish Jesus. 70 A.D. in Jerusalem was horrific and tragic with over a million Jew slaughtered and young men taken back to build the Coliseum that would be used later to kill Christians. Cathedrals built on top of Jewish Christian churches. It only got worse, just for a few monumental examples: Christian Crusades of 1099, the Spanish Inquisition, and the hatred of Jesus the Messiah from the blood-line of David.
It started after Constantine conquered Rome in 315 A.D.; however, it was never put into law until the Counsel of Nicaean 538 A.D. They began going after their own, stripping them of their title, exile, and even burning at the stake if they did not accept the belief of the 3 equal gods.
Did God transform himself into Jesus, or is He the Father as it says? Does one have the Spirit of God, or the spirit of the 3rd person first introduced in the beginning in the Garden? If the tri-unity belief could be found in the Bible, I would be running from it since it is “dripping in blood” of the Martyrs-Saints of/in Christ.
The Lady in Purple and Scarlet drunken with the blood of the Saints is very revealing (Revelation 17:6 I saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of God’s holy people, the blood of those who bore testimony to Jesus).
The 7 churches in Revelation is not the history of the church, but are a Pre-Tribulation Warning to the Churches of the Last Days to Repent and get Ready (Revelation Chapters 2 and 3). Who and what were the Protestant reformists complaints heading the Reformation and what was the Counter Reformation in the 14th-18th Century about (I have 2 Post on this site about the Global Reformists that started the Protestant Movement)? Do you have the label of Protestant – then look up the definition – Protestors of the Vatican – Holy See that was the stimulate that brought the Forefathers to America wanting Religious Freedom. Have Christian Churches come out of the Mother Church – some, but not far enough. Revelation 18:4-5
Come out of her, my people,
so that you will not share in her sins,
so that you will not receive any of her plagues;
5for her sins are piled up to heaven,
and God has remembered her crimes.
The Doctrine of Jesus Christ is accepting both the Father and the Son – Anything else is a antichrist. 2 John 1:7-11
I say this because many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist. 8Watch out that you do not lose what wea have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully. 9Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. 10If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take them into your house or welcome them. 11Anyone who welcomes them shares in their wicked work.
Today Christianity is following the Jesuit Priest teaching – Futurist Teaching – Antichrist in the Future – don’t worry Christians, you will be Raptured out before he shows up – and yet – The Apostle John said they even go out from us now – 2,000 years ago. 1 John 2:18-23
Warnings Against Denying the Son
18Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour. 19They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us; but their going showed that none of them belonged to us.
20But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the truth.e 21I do not write to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it and because no lie comes from the truth.22Who is the liar? It is whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a person is the antichrist—denying the Father and the Son. 23No one who denies the Son has the Father; whoever acknowledges the Son has the Father also.
If you don’t have the Truth from the Word of God in you, neither do you have God in you, and/or His Spirit of Truth, Jesus Christ. If you profess to follow Jesus Christ, then you will obey His teachings and commandments. Matthew 23 and 24 are very revealing- to understand 1st Century Christianity and to be warned by Jesus on what will take place in the Last Days – the End of the Age.
I accept the first 5 books of the Word of God, but also the teachings of His Prophets, and most especially the teachings of Jesus Christ who came to fulfill the Law, not kill it. Today’s teachings are projected very well from a guest on Sid Roth’s Supernatural – Michael Brown – The Deceptive Message of Hyper-grace. You can find this on my site: www.the7thdayreturnofthelord.com
We have come into the 7th Millennium, 7,000 years since Creation. We were born in the last days of false prophets with Deception going on for 2,000 years. We have entered a new territory and era, “The Beginning of the End of the Age”, when Truth is going to be Revealed at an alarming rate in all areas; from our World Leaders, Politics, Governments, Business, and even Religion before the Return of our Lord. Psalms 118:8 Do you put your confidence in man, or trust in God. What does the Leaders, Elite, Wise, Mighty, and Noble know that you do not know?
We do not have time to gradually get it right,, we must Seek God and the TRUTH and prepare ourselves for the coming of the Lord. The Kingdom of God is near with His King at the Door prepared to crush the kingdoms of the World who have come against Israel, and the Holy One of Israel. HalleluJah! Praise our God and our Creator!
