We are the people, like John, are to prepare the way of the Lord; and if we are prepared for the second coming of Christ, we must work with all diligence to prepare other for Christ's second advent, as did the forerunner of Christ for His first advent, calling me to repentance... We want to life up the standard. Let all the people come up to the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Let us pray that we hunger and thirst after righteousness; for Jesus says, "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.We know that the gates of hell shall not prevail against God's true church for Christ is the head and Satan is a defeated foe. Yet, he is so subtle! The world is married to the 501 (3) and (8) organized church, its members are absorbed with worldly pursuit and worldly gain causing the love of many to wax cold. The organized church is fast becoming the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. The pastors wife's dress is so short that you have to look up when she sits down. The church has become a fashion show, gluttony and intemperance dethrones reason and logic. What the pastor says out weights a "Thus sayeth the Lord"! Men and women take what they want and leave what they do not want from the word of God, instead of living by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. True, loyal and righteous Christian do not become discouraged for you are witnessing prophecy coming to past. The lamb like beast of Revelation 13:11 is so to take the stage and plunge this world into a terrible crisis. God too is soon to take the reigns of the Christian gospel into His own hands and work for and with His people, Psalms 119:126.The time has come, in order to preserve your children's purity and not pervert their perception of the true worship of God, to take them as far as possible from a organized 501 (3) church. Three or four families should join together and have home church. Once a month, three or four of the home church companies should come together to fellowship together, e.g. pray, worship, break bread, etc. We need to pray more, study our bibles more, while we ask for spiritual discernment for the end of all things is at hand.In her endeavor to reach her home, the eagle is often beaten down by the tempest to the narrow defiles of the mountains... At last she dashes upward into the blackness, and gives a shrill scream of triumph as she emerges, a moment later, in the calm sunshine above. The darkness and tempest are all below her, and the light of heaven is shinning about her. She reaches her loved home in the lofty crag, and is satisfied. It was through darkness that she reached the light. It cost her an effort to do this, but she is rewarded in gaining the object which she sought. This is the only course we can pursue as followers of Christ... We have heights of faith to reach, where all is peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.may God bless and keep each of you as we travel this pilgrims progress to the celestial city. Maranatha

Central to God’s character is the quality of holiness. Yet, even so, most people are hard-pressed to define what God’s holiness precisely is. Many preachers today avoid the topic altogether because people today don’t quite know what to do with words like “awe” or “fear.” R. C. Sproul, in this classic work, puts the holiness of God in its proper and central place in the Christian life. He paints an awe-inspiring vision of God that encourages Christian to become holy just as God is holy. Once you encounter the holiness of God, your life will never be the same.

As the Kingdom of God continues to be taught and preached across the world, there is a piece to the overall theology that remains unfinished. In order to bring the Kingdom of God to the earth, we must have agreement and understanding of what that looks like. Societal transformation is necessary to achieving this task. However, this in its own right is still a misunderstood concept that carries objectives which need to be aligned in a biblical perspective in order to attain our mandates as sons of God. How do we do this? By looking at and understanding God's law in relation to the law of the world, by analyzing the true difference between the current state of our world and biblical instruction, and by looking at history to show us where this all began. It is not simply fixed by more revival, but by an ambitious undertaking of unification amongst all the spheres of culture, beginning with the gatekeepers in each realm and by affecting change through them with the proper biblical viewpoint. In the end, we must look to Jesus for the accomplishment of this ambitious attempt at societal transformation. Truly, it is through Him and only Him, that we must empower ourselves to experience the shift that will achieve the end goal of bringing the Kingdom of God to earth, as it is in Heaven.

The great question to be made known is, “How shall man be just with God? How can I come before the Lord in innocence?” and I wish, if the Lord will, to make you understand: I. That you must have perfect righteousness—or you will not be saved. II. That you have no righteousness of your own of any sort, and therefore by yourself you cannot be saved. III. That the Lord Himself must be your Righteousness, and so you shall be saved. May God the Holy Spirit, who can convert the most aged, the most careless, the most sinful (I speak that which I do know myself), accompany the words I am about to speak, and make them seasonable to all your souls!
